I'm sad to see a lot of artists I know saying it's super hard to get sales. And it really is. So I wanna promote them here again. Go check them out and buy or tip them if you can. This is the non-US shops list but I'll post other lists as well.

Right now, anyone can walk through the doors of any UK national museum or gallery for free – with no barrier, booking, ID or fee. 🎉 On 1 Dec, we celebrate 25 years of this landmark policy. We’ve launched a national survey to hear what free entry has meant to you. Over to you!

Entrance to the Tate Britain, London, promoting a survey titled "Over To You: 25 Years of Free Museums & Galleries" with text "As the Government considers changes to this landmark policy, share what 25 years of free admission has meant to you in our short survey".

With alt text! Donate to the RNLI, they rule!

The RNLI is a charity that exists to save lives at sea.

But recent events have generated deliberate misinformation and a misunderstanding about our purpose and our lifesaving work in the Channel.
As a result, some of our volunteers and staff have been the subject of online and, in some cases, physical abuse.

This is unacceptable.

The RNLI's people represent the very best of society. For over two hundred years they have dedicated themselves to rescuing people they've never met before, without judgment, fear or favour.

We are tasked by HM Coastguard to help those in distress, and we'll do so whenever, wherever and whoever they are.

We launched 9,058 times in 2025.
Only 109 of those launches were to those in distress in the Channel - 1.2% of our total rescue work. Anyone rescued from a small boat by the RNLI is then taken into the care of the relevant UK authorities.

To those who stand with the RNLI, thank you. For more than two hundred years, we've saved lives at sea around the UK and Ireland, and that commitment remains unchanged.

The most absolutely massive flex from the state fair exhibit. This quilt is made of 40 years of prize ribbons from various categories at the New Mexico State Fair won by Carol St. Clair Johnson. She also won a prize for this quilt.

Carol St. Clair Johnson
born 1954; resides Albuquerque, NM

O Fair New Mexico-41 Fair Years
2023
satin ribbons

After unexpectedly winning her first blue ribbon for a sewn cape in 1981, Carol St. Clair Johnson developed an enduring love for the New Mexico State Fair. The quilt Fair New Mexico-41 Fair Years incorporates more than six hundred of the ribbons she won at the fair every subsequent year except 2020 (when the fair was canceled because of the COVID-19 pandemic). Johnson earned ribbons for needlework, knitting, crochet, pies, cookies, cakes, canning, jewelry, flowers, vegetables, and potted plants. The title of the quilt is a reference to the state song, and the design places the state's Zia sun symbol at the center. The quilt earned Johnson yet another ribbon: Best in Category (miscellaneous quilt) at the 2023 New Mexico State Fair.

And in the case of comic artists, they’re forced to either 1) take several years to finish one book due to balancing a day job that enables them to survive 2) create multiple books at once, putting them at higher risk of early burnout/injury, or 3) have generational wealth and/or massive savings

September is Bi Visibility Month, so perceiving me may be easier, as all bisexuals have disadvantage on stealth rolls until Halloween 1st.

BI REMINDER
💜Bisexual women are still bi even if they're dating men
🩷Bisexual men exist, and they're not "just gay"
💙Ace/Aro bisexuals, & Nonbinary
bisexuals exist
💜Sexual orientation is about attraction, not action
🩷Bisexuals dont need to have dated all the genders/gender identities they re attracted to - to know they're attracted to them

Artist: Maybe St. Aftercigs

An illustration of a stylized, fluffy black cat sitting on a wooden railing with an orange fence against a dark green background. The cat has yellow eyes, a pink nose, and holds a lit, smoking cigarette in its mouth. Overlaying the cat's body is white text that reads: "i won't judge you for using unhealthy coping skills to stay alive. i get it."

These letters remind us that trans allyship isn't abstract, it's personal. It's choosing to stand with trans+ people through difficult times and making sure they know they're loved, respected and welcome. 💗 #WithTheT Add your voice ✍️ notinourname.org.uk

I'm so proud of you.

I can hardly imagine the journey you've taken to discover who you are and tell the people you love.
But I suppose it's been a difficult path, and you've came so far.

Please never forget that you are worthy and that you deserve to be loved. You are beautiful in so many ways.

Sincerely, Tina

Just to say - my family and I love you, we see you, we accept you and we stand with you.

Stay strong and know that you have allies who truly care x x x

I have so much respect for you and really appreciate the difficulties that many are experiencing because of ignorance and an unwillingness to learn about the realities for trans people.

Sending you my support and every hope that things change for the better.

Trending The online writing platform Wattpad is removing sexually explicit content and adult-themed stories from its site. In response to the new content guidelines, writers are moving their portfolios to Archive of Our Own to avoid permanent deletion. The shift marks a significant change in the platform's long-standing hosting policies for independent fiction authors and readers.

His jewelry is copper. Maglor is wearing a red cloak and a dark blue grey one underneath with floral yellow embroidery, a red sash, and grey blue tunic underneath. Celegorm is wearing a light grey blue jacket with a white fur lining. His hair is in a ponytail, unlike his brothers, who are all wearing braids. Underneath, he is wearing a grey tunic. Caranthir is wearing a bear fur over his purple cape, with a black one underneath; under that, he is wearing a red tunic. All his jewelry is gold. Curufin is wearing a white cloak with a black one underneath, a black and white sash, and a red tunic, his jewelry is both gold and silver.
