I know most of my mutuals are authors, but they can still help out with getting some POC voice actors some work. Note: it is currently *not* SAG union, but they are currently trying to get approval to make it union work for SAG talents.

Literature lesson: "It started here" is incredibly vague and isn't even true. Was it the first story Lewis wrote? (no) Was it the first Narnia novel? (no) Is it the first chronically? (yes) Does it need to be read before the others? (no) It didn't start here, it began history.

This is always one of the most frustrating parts about 10+ years as a copywriter and senior copywriter, is I have so very little to actually put in my portfolio 😭 So much of my work was published under other peoples names, so most of my portfolio is like "trust me bro, I wrote this."

One of my favorites was an anime con in Tampa scheduled for the same time as some sports world series was happening, and so you had all these drunk sports fans walking the streets with cosplayers & furries and being so fucking confused as to what was happening

About 20 years ago, my friend's dad was cleaning the patio around their pool with cleaning chemicals then sprayed water to push it into the pool. He produced so much mustard gas, the entire neighborhood had to be evacuated for a few hours.

There is this really really telling moment from the 10/2 broadcast by PBS of Trump talking about how "most people don't realize that dumb doesn't have a b." And this guy in the crowd behind him, openingly smiles and nods and claps as if saying "He's right!" These are his voters.

I read this and immediately thought of mafia spiders for some reason. "First we're gonna break your tarsus. Then, when you don't tell us what we wanna know. We break your metatarsus. And let me tell you buddy. You're gonna have 7 more of those we can pick from before we're done with you."

Its like if someone had to squint their brain to remember what you looked like.

I'd argue they'd probably do the exact opposite. If Reps maintain, they'll all retire so they can push through three very young justices (like ACB, who's on 54, securing another 20+ year reign). If Dems win, they'll hold out literally as long as they physically can to avoid giving a seat to them.

Genuinely there are some people that just hate the idea of other people happy, successful, or creating something. They hate art because it makes them feel things. They hate comedy because they can't be funny or witty. Its incredibly sad.

Greg Lawson @greglawson1.bsky.social · 23/09/2026

No no he's right. Most of our modern aviation, IT, and military technology was invented by or is run by the Furry community. The only thing he's wrong about is that they're not taking over, they're already here. Just like Trans people were always here.

Went to a local Anime Convention. Every single booth (40+) in Artist Alley was Anti AI. Bought the last four books for an queer indie author, with no Gen AI art on the cover.

Its becoming a thing lately where buildings just feel.. wrong. Like so lifeless and empty, even when there are people there. Its like how the shift in every color scheme has gone to grey and beige.

They gave us the same speech for over a year. Then they told us using it was mandatory. Then they fired the entire copywriting team and 3 months later replaced the entire marketing department with overseas contractors using AI. Now they're losing money, employees, and clients.

I've written entire sex scenes with an incubus-disguised-as-a-priest and not *once* have a used god collar and now I fucking hate myself for it. Well guess I need to fix that.

It really feels like post No Child Left Behind, critical thinking skills have been decreasing in a steady downward spiral. It's fucking horrific seeing people who lack even basic abilities for critical thought, or even hypotheticals.

Greg Lawson @greglawson1.bsky.social · 02/09/2026

This feels like its becoming increasingly more common now and I can't really explain it. So many times I look at actors in movies and go "...what else have I seen them in?" and more often than not, they just look similar to another actor that I'm thinking of. Sets, colors, it all feels.. flat.

Greg Lawson @greglawson1.bsky.social · 31/08/2026

That just reads like the erasure of the entire kink and LGBT community as well from ever existing in her novels. Its not a huge step to go from "I'll fade to black all sex scenes" to "nothing exists outside of heteronormative relationships". It leaves just a weird taste.

Greg Lawson @greglawson1.bsky.social · 30/08/2026

Yes. You enjoy it. I'm saying the same people constantly saying they want more reviews *dont* like reading reviews that don't align with their views on things. That years of echochambering has resulted in people actively avoiding things like reviews.

000

Greg Lawson @greglawson1.bsky.social · 30/08/2026

The problem with reviews, always, is that if your review doesn't *exactly align* with the views of the person reading it, they'll just move on. You can't deviate even a little bit, otherwise they'll check out. It's just more and more echochambering

The first person that figures out how to cancel the whole thing without a bullshit lawsuit stopping it (remember, student loan forgiveness was stopped under Biden originally by people who NEVER HAD STUDENT LOANS TO BEGIN WITH) will immediately win the Presidency

Its something I've noticed in the last decade especially where reading has gone from a process of learning, growing as a person, developing emotions and empathy to a competition to prove you're the bestest reader. The amount of DNF posts that never existed previously. The judgment of genres. Ugh

Mmm. Gotcha gotcha. Was it just super glue or did you try super glue and then pouring baby powder on? Just curious.

100

Greg Lawson @greglawson1.bsky.social · 12/08/2026

I believe if you pour superglue in, and then drop baby powder on it, it becomes an incredibly affected and solid filler that should hold. It creates a putty that will dry very quickly, and then can be sanded down. I'm not sure if it can completely fix the problem but its an option.

Very nice. I just started building my first army, and honestly.. I'm very happy with how I was able to get the cape to stay lifted like this to make it look like an active charge.

A photo of a Caucasian hand holding an all grey miniature from the Warhammer 40 franchise. The miniature is a helmed warrior with a plume coming out of the helmet, holding a sword in one hand and a shield the size of the warrior's body in the other. Behind the miniature a cape is flowing. It is in front of a grey and gold mousepad with a skeletal snake and a man looking back at the camera faintly visible.

Okay but a Fist of the North Star secret lair would go pretty hard. Omaewa mo Shindeiru would be a pretty hilarious spell that is like "Target creature gains until the end of turn "Sacrifice this creature at the end of the turn. You lose 2 life"" ala Hellish Rebuke. Maybe give it Overload.

I worked at a place for a year where even though everyone was signed up for direct deposit, each pay day the managers would walk from desk to desk handing over paper checks and *expected to be thanked for it* If you didn't thank the manager, you got a stern talking to from HR about "team players"
