🤣 can't leave until I floss every tooth twice with the one and only brand of floss I'm loyal to

Also, going by the "personalized" ads I see, I'd get a videogame that thinks I have dogs (I don't), kids (nope), am brand loyal and obsessed with oral care (??? I mean, I brush and floss regularly but where did obsessive brand loyalty come from?) and that I like reading (yay, it got one!)

I love these birds 💙💛🤎❤️

true. "proudly weirder than anything disny would ever greenlight"

But the premise is vaguely similar and I just want the world to know we were working on this way before Disney announced theirs 😤😤😤

amazing work! although if I were a rich eccentric I'd commission the same pose and seriousness but of a fat round mini pony

Just heard about Disney's "Coven Academy" and I swear to the ancient ones that me n' @marlenacannon.bsky.social named our book "Fate Academy" first 😭 #authorproblems #indieauthor (yes I live under a rock, the moss is nice, join me - but also, it was kindof a working a title, should we change it?)

Yes now, wait for meeeeeeeeee~~~! I wanna reverse Little-Mermaid it and go live where the fishes have antifreeze for blood 💙

oh no XD I didn't get any popups, my ad blocker must be working too well

it probably says something that my favorite comics are ones I did in less than 24 hours in a caffeine-fueled craze as one-off, no/very little editing just... brain -> paper

I think the How to ADHD book was written pre-AI so maybe that would be more helpful?

this is the only way I can do comics anymore

I'm glad mine wasn't the only derp 😆

I have like 0 spare cash but if other people donate and pick a silhouette I will draw googly eyes and a mouth on it 👍

I agonized over picking my favorite only to feel personally attacked by my results 😅

ah sorry, this was when I went a few years ago in France, in off season, it was very laid back... you could tell they were prepared for crowds but I had the gallery all to myself for most of the day

actually I'm not positive it was the BM or a different NHM in London (??) so I'll delete that and avoid any accusations of committing libel 😒

jeezie chrizzie that's just incomprehensible...

- although it was very empty when I went so I just ignored the (heavily suggested) timer and spent as long as I wanted and even circled around and went through a second time (the staff did not care)

And it's not like they had to invent the wheel from scratch - the original museum in France is built specifically to move a certain number of people through a path at a certain pace, and they know exactly how many to fit in a given hour

I have heard similar complaints about their shirt prints being worse now from others so I don't think I just got a bad batch

The first few times I got shirts from them (many years ago at this point 😬 ) they were high quality and the prints lasted and I was pleased. A few years after that I ordered a bunch of shirts and the shirts themselves are fine but the prints start to peel off IMMEDIATELY even when washed carefully

seriously... the encrapification of everything is laaaame!

030

Like, I can print the same or better quality at home. Their shirts are worse than the print-at-home iron on transfers! And their stickers are awful

I would also like to see what other options people know of because I have stopped buying anything from Redbubble... their quality has gotten so bad!

same... it's autumn but 30C and ~moist~

I can think of a few politicians I'd like for to have to reincarnate into one of these for the next 1,000 lifetimes 😆

Leaving the ocean was a terrible idea 🥲 I want to float forever

It's early and my brain read this as "Tupperware found in 2,100-year-old..." and my first reaction was like "Yep, bet it looked like my mom's, all furry from decades of use..."

this is the guy i reposted the other day who interviewed meta employees with pervert glasses - meta have taken his video down for “harassment”. which makes it one of the most effective pieces of satire in recent memory

I try to share the travel but have a few that come on basically every trip. This is Parsleigh, I got her at a craft fair.

my sis has 1 published book and we are working on a novel together so she made like one mention of it and got swamped by people?companies?bots? offering to be beta readers for a fee 😫 like, no, we've got writing groups where we all happily read each others' stuff because we genuinely enjoy doing it!

There's a whole backstory 😆😅 You could join me and @mothmonarch.bsky.social in making an old-school internet shrine to your plush, and then join our webring :)
