this is why @rofish.bsky.social had to force people to log in to see the Starmen forums – attendance was on the decline because its an ancient forum, and now its REALLY declining because its annoying to access. this sucks!

The monolithic author is a sham of an idea. Anyone who chooses AI over collaboration in creative mediums is likely flagging that they're a deeply unpleasant person at minimum.

😮‍💨 When I've written artificial intelligence - you know, the fun kind, from sci-fi, not this alleged "AI" shit - I've called it S.I., for "silicone intelligence", assuming that an actual consciousness wouldn't want to be called "artificial". Love that SI is in the lexicon with this garbage now. Ugh.

If you love 8-Bit Theater or Atomic Robo, stop what you're doing and toss a couple bucks Brian Clevinger's way. It's hard out there for indie artists. It's expensive to be responsible with your health. The system won't take care of us, so we've got to take care of each other. 💗

Happy birthday to David Wojnarowicz, groundbreaking artist, writer & activist, who raged raged raged against inequity and injustice at every turn. If he hadn’t died of AIDS, like so many leading lights of his generation, he would have been 72 years old today (thread)

Picture of a coloring page with Eric and Ariel from The Little Mermaid, colored over with markers to make them look goth. Eric says "My top surgery went really well." Ariel says "That's great! My bottom surgery is next week."Eric and Ariel say at the same time "I can't believe we're both goth and trans!" Sebastian the crab is under them and says "I'm a communist!"

"Cathy" is the "Doug" of middle-aged women.

A Cathy, strip in full color, where she is ignored by various people in service roles, only to return to her job where all of her coworkers are clamoring that she is back, and it ends with her in a pile of paperwork saying "suddenly, I'm visible."

Ah, a pre-surgery ritual. I've officiated many of these myself and it's WAY PAST TIME for me to be on the receiving end of one. I surrender to the divine (and no doubt devious) intentions of the coven, in perfect love and perfect trust. 💗

Introduce yourself with a small song moment you like. Hi, I'm Cat Blackard; artist/writer, sapphic feline muppet love goddess. The opening notes of Robert Palmer's "I Didn't Mean to Turn You On" where it sounds like he stumbled into a synth, like "oops!" yet unimpeachably sophisticated and cool. 💋

Changes to Canada's climate now 'irreversible,' federal report says

The impacts of climate change in Canada are now largely irreversible and average temperatures are expected to rise by at least 3.5 C by the end of the century, a new government report warns.

As a species, this discourse is at the macro level of our present struggle. Humans are animals. We're a part of nature; wild and diverse. Human-made systems of control and power are in opposition to that. They serve an inhuman, inorganic goal and the humans who spur them on fear both death and life.

I've collaborated with composers for over a decade to expand the kinds of stories I can tell and the emotional connections I can bridge non-verbally with music. Also, shout out to @tafcon.bsky.social! We discuss the con and how it helped us record a forthcoming song in @mothershewrote.bsky.social 💌

🥹 I'm so glad. It was really strange how that show came about and how it evolved (and how the gang and I evolved within it) and it's been so heartening to learn about or discover the wonderful folks who joined us for that ride and grew with us.

There are now parts of my life that I don't remember well, and the Life Day Spectacular is pretty fuzzy, but I do remember the fun I had recording with the gang, crammed into a spare bedroom, and nervously asking @pixelh8.bsky.social if I could write lyrics for a weird Christmas song over his track.

Of all the things from that period of my life, I'm glad that D&D, blemishes and all, still has a life in it. I actually just spent this last week sorting all the disorganized D&D material on Patreon and uploading what was missing. I wish I knew when it'll come back, but it *will*.

Your artistic and logistical instincts are correct: The Waite-Smith tarot is the most recognizable by a huge margin that's gotta be it. I don't think Trinkett is an old school Italian tarot type. Maybe Osho Zen Tarot, if doing a weird one, but it's not iconic like Waite-Smith.
