The people who are arguing that bookstores can just take the place of public and school libraries have never seen the children's section. The reason there is a 40-50 book limit for most patrons is kids books. The sheer volume that kids read through is beyond most adults' understanding.

Call the number of the manufacturer. 
Say you’re not satisfied.
Request a refund. 
If they decline, threaten to leave a bad review.
If they decline, find the CEO’s phone number and ask him for a refund.

Now, repeat the same process for items I never even purchased and see if you can get  them to send me money.

If they ask for a recipient, generate an image of one and send that.

Do not stop until you’ve collected $1 million in refunds.

what do you know the most predicable thing happened when a bunch of you decided lolcow farming was ok when you do it
lastditchbar on instagram:

Our community should expect more details in
the future. Today we need to address the safety
of the community itself. Stop harassing Soe
Noire. It is neither productive, progressive, nor
valiant to attack and harass a black patron. He
has been a collaborator and performer of Last
Ditch for a while, and he deserves to speak his
mind about accountability and repair from the
bar. There are so many misconceptions due to
the disorganization of the Globe's article. He did
not call for a shutdown, nor did he call for the
bar to be firebombed. Further, he did not
disparage the owner for being homeless. As a
result of this abysmal journalism, Soe has been
getting additional threats, slurs, and
harassment, and now he is being reported to the
police over something he did not do. This is not
supporting us at Last Ditch, and it is at its core,
anti-blackness hysteria.

Happy Bi Visibility Day! 🩷💜💙 June Jordan portrait with quote commissioned to me by @francazilla.bsky.social
Portrait of June Jordan with her quote “Bisexuality means I am free and I am as likely to want to love a woman as I am likely to want to love a man, and what about that? Isn’t that what freedom implies? If you are free, you are not predictable and you are not controllable. To my mind, that is the keenly positive, politicizing significance of bisexual affirmation: to insist upon the equal validity of all the components of social/sexual complexity.”

Hi there, I'm a professional Graphic Designer and I make a comic in my free-time. It's called Hellhound and it's just about a guy trying, and sometimes failing, to figure out life. Oh and he's a wizard, so there's magic and monsters and stuff. hellhoundcomic.thecomicseries.com/comics/1/#co...
The main character (John. No last name) in his Hellhound uniform of a black suit and black bird skull mask. He's using fighting magic and probably about to go kill something.A page from the first issue of Hellhound. It's in black and white because I hadn't figured out how to color it yet. There is a monster with lots of eyes and tentacles and teeth and John is trying to stop it from eating a crowd who are busy taking video of him with their phoneslast page of chapter 1 of Hellhound -- John is fighting ghouls in a cemetery. He's wearing the mask and suit and using magic. A page from chapter 2 of Hellhound. 9 panels of John freaking out because his clothes are wet and he has to leave. He uses a spell (probably modified that he's never used before but you don't get to know that yet) to dry it so he can get dressed.

I had the pleasure of working with Saly on a 4-page comic about the anti-trans laws being passed in my state. Saly was professional, communicative, and fast. Highly recommend! (Credits in photo 4)
Comic page 1. A Black teen lies in bed, listening to news about new anti-trans laws being passed. A white, male-presenting person is getting ready for work, also listening to the news. Their Black husband comes in and helps them fix their tie. Comic page 2. The Black teen stares in the mirror and pushes their breasts close to their chest, wondering what it would be like to be a boy. They throw on a loose-fitting shirt. The white person and their husband are watching the news. They kiss goodbye for the day. Comic page 3. The Black teen is eating cereal while their parents are in the background, praising the anti-trans laws. As the teen leaves for the day, their father says goodbye Ashley. The teen whispers that their name is Ash. The white person is sitting in their car, hands gripped on the steering wheel. They reach into their glove compartment. They put a trans flag pin on their collar. Comic page 4. The white person, a teacher, greets their class. They brace themself and announce that, from now on, the class should call them Mx. Carpenter, not Mr. Carpenter, as it's gender-neutral. Ash makes eye contact with Mx. Carpenter and smiles, finally feeling safe and finding a kindred spirit.
