Ben the Bones Kinner @bengesko.bsky.social · 11hThis very thing tore up my housemate's raid group in GW2. One of the members drew a picture on top of AI and wanted to use it for their server, then got offended when they were called out on it. If you're gonna photobash, just use a 3d model or a screenshot, why use AI??? 010

Ben the Bones Kinner @bengesko.bsky.social · 03/10/2026exactly! They were formed BECAUSE of censorship on livejournal and fanfictionnet, so they're definitely veterans in defending freedom in creativity! 090
Ben the Bones Kinner @bengesko.bsky.social · 03/10/2026They still raise a CONSIDERABLE amount of money with every fiscal year, and a LOT of their costs go towards a legal team, which, honestly, FA could use. It's hard navigating the world of censorship without legal representation, and AO3 has insight on that front. 1260
Ben the Bones Kinner @bengesko.bsky.social · 03/10/2026you're welcome! Wishing you all the luck <3 010
Ben the Bones Kinner @bengesko.bsky.social · 03/10/2026Between the two of them, they could really do something good! 010
Ben the Bones Kinner @bengesko.bsky.social · 03/10/2026They are VERY thorough- by the time my case got to the ALJ, they'd done enough of the paperwork and kept in touch with my doctors, that the ALJ didn't even do my hearing; she just looked at what they presented and went "That's more than good enough for me. Fully favorable." 110

We are getting namedropped at high levels of government. They know that we are a large, influential, largely queer, community. Fighting for the spaces owned by our community is incredibly important 1944992203
Ben the Bones Kinner @bengesko.bsky.social · 03/10/2026Y'all should REALLY reach out to the finance team of AO3. They've been doing this for a LONG time, and I feel like between their experience and the generous nature of the furry fandom, some good things would come out of it to help the stability of the site's future. 3815
Ben the Bones Kinner @bengesko.bsky.social · 03/10/2026ngl, the only thing I miss about twitter is my Rrom friends that refuse to leave the site. Tumblr cares too much about blood quantum, reddit is full of assholes. I wish my Rrom friends on twitter would move to bsky or masto bc I miss the salt. I miss having Rrom friends that are diddkai like me. 010

Ben the Bones Kinner @bengesko.bsky.social · 02/10/2026 Evans Disability is the lawyers I used for SSDI. It took five years because I was getting ssdi for ehlers danlos and migraines, and I was under 40, but they got me my disability. Definitely recommend them. (My case was one that another lawyer refused to take bc he didn't think we'd win) 110

Ben the Bones Kinner @bengesko.bsky.social · 02/10/2026Fixed. Had to update, restart, then hook the pencil directly to the iPad with a USB-C cable. IPad re-paired with it. Hopefully this will also fix the random disconnects it was having. 010
Ben the Bones Kinner @bengesko.bsky.social · 01/10/2026My iPad has decided it no longer sees my pencil. Have restarted, tried resetting Bluetooth, nothing. I think the latest update broke something and I am upset bc I was drawing, damnit. 220

Ben the Bones Kinner @bengesko.bsky.social · 01/10/2026If being disabled is something to be pitied, that's a failing of society, not the disabled. 020
Ben the Bones Kinner @bengesko.bsky.social · 01/10/2026So don't you dare pity me. I worked for my due, disabling myself in the process. I am finally living with my disabilities, not working around them, or trying to race them to the finish line. 120
Ben the Bones Kinner @bengesko.bsky.social · 01/10/2026I'm finally crawling out of a five year long depression. I'm finally able to get therapy and be kind to myself after working myself into a breakdown. My creativity is coming back and at a pace I set for myself, to learn to work with my disabilities, not in spite of them. 120
Ben the Bones Kinner @bengesko.bsky.social · 01/10/2026I did seven years of work and training in the medical field - I was a certified medical assistant, then a medical lab assistant, then a veterinary lab tech. Then a dispatcher for AMR. I have been working to survive since I was 8. I am 41 now, disabled, and I am only NOW starting to live. 120
Ben the Bones Kinner @bengesko.bsky.social · 01/10/2026I have been working since I was 8 years old - I raised my siblings while my parents worked. My only present on my 15th birthday was a signed work permit and a stack of job applications. I was working three jobs at age 17 when I ran away from home. I did military time to avoid homelessness. 120
Ben the Bones Kinner @bengesko.bsky.social · 01/10/2026I'd love to have one conversation where I am not asked "What do you do?" and get that Look of Pity when the answer is "I'm disabled." Don't you dare pity me. 130

Ben the Bones Kinner @bengesko.bsky.social · 01/10/2026Sadly mine are the result of genetics and a stroke I had in 2016, but living in a legal state helps a LOT. A combo of Ajovy, propranolol, elavil, and thc makes them manageable. I hope the Vydura ends up being the med that works for you <3 020
Ben the Bones Kinner @bengesko.bsky.social · 30/09/2026As a fellow migraine sufferer, I feel this. I hope it helps! Took me years to find a cocktail that 'works' (reduces the migraines to 1-2 a week down from every day) 110

Ben the Bones Kinner @bengesko.bsky.social · 29/09/2026Hey. Did you know you can dislike a thing without trashing it or its creator? At the very least, have some supportive evidence. Simply saying 'this is garbage and the writer is garbage for not writing my blorbo the way I see him' makes me think you're a miserable wretch. 020
