Well folks it happened: a U.S. district court has ruled that Americans no longer have to go through the ATF and register to acquire short-barreled rifles, shotguns or suppressors. This is a massive change to gun laws in this country and also...not likely to change much. I'll explain.
Although the district court’s injunction applies only to plaintiffs and certain other specified 
persons, the Department has determined to exercise its enforcement discretion to create greater 
uniformity, consistent with the Attorney General’s statement today. Consequently, effective 
October 9, 2026, ATF will no longer require individuals to seek ATF approval under the NFA 
before making or transferring short-barreled rifles, short-barreled shotguns, silencers, and “any 
other weapon[s]” as defined in 26 U.S.C. § 5845(e). ATF will also no longer require such items 
to be registered in the National Firearms Registration and Transfer Record. These policies apply 
uniformly to anyone otherwise subject to these requirements, not just to the plaintiffs in the 
litigation

I’m not great at “promoting things.” I’d rather be out with the birds, covered in feathers, taking care of rehab cases, and sketching designs with a mug of tea. But we made something I’m really proud of, and I wanted to share it with you. We just added 19 new designs: tinyurl.com/v5sry3m8 🪶

Chinook salmon have recolonised 88% of their historic range on the Klamath River, with more than 13,000 fish passing the old Iron Gate Dam site in 2025, up from 7,700 the year before. Two years after the dams’ removal, it’s going better than anyone predicted. buff.ly/pToC9gB #ShareGoodNewsToo

I've had to unfriend a few fans lately, all for the same reason. They made ridiculing, unkind, and in some cases outright cruel comments about pictures I posted of young women cosplaying Jessica. 
More than a person, Jessica is a state of mind. To play Jessica, you need self -confidence, a sense of humor, and a Jessican -attitude-. There is no such thing as a Jessica cosplayer being too short, too flat chested, too heavy, too thin, too unattractive, too black, too Asian, or even too male!!! All Jessica, any Jessica, every Jessica is good Jessica. 
I'm not giving any warnings or second chances. A single disparaging comment on a Jessica cosplayer, and I'm throwing you out of the rainbow colored Toontown Tent.

For your convenience, the Pride and Prejudice live-posting super-thread 📚
A drawing of Elizabeth Bennet, a lovely young woman with her long hair tied up nearly under a ribbon and wearing what is most likely a neo-classically inspired dress, looking pensive, two letters in her hand. Meanwhile Darcy, a handsome but stern-looking fellow, looks longingly at her. Also there is me, a little gremlin in big round glasses, skulking about in the background and hoping that they kiss. 

The accompanying text reads “Trung reads Pride and Prejudice for the first time, somehow.”

A close-up photo of a woman wearing a traditional Ukrainian beaded necklace called a gerdan over a plain white t-shirt. The gerdan is hand-woven with black, red, white, and grey beads. It features intricate patterns of red viburnum (kalyna) berries with grey leaves on the sides, leading down to a large central geometric ornament resembling a stylized girl figure (Berehynia symbol). The necklace ends with long, detailed beaded fringes at the bottom.

Pierre Bourdieu once argued that the question of whether something is art isn't answered by the artist's intention or even the object itself. Instead, the quality of being "art" is conferred by a community — curators, dealers, auction houses, audiences, etc. 🧵
