I've said it before, I've said it again: Bluesky has a disproportionate and extremely loud percentage of users who think it's morally righteous to abuse people as long as it's for a good enough cause, and an even larger percentage of users who specialize in justifying why causes are good.

I will always repost this information. Not a single item of clothing pops out on a conveyer belt. Fabric doesn’t work that way. Human hands stitch them on sewing machines. I love bargains, but if you pay $2 for a tshirt that is because that human made very little money, likely in poor conditions.

I'm in Super Seconds Festival this weekend! It's an online event with 250+ artists, makers and illustrators selling B grades, samples etc so its a great time to start xmas shopping! You can even make a wish list for the day via the Makers page here: www.supersecondsfestival.co.uk/makerlineup/

A poster for the event, showing a mint green circle featuring the words 'super seconds festival', and a small yellow shape with the words '3rd and 4th October', over a purple background with black pattern of outlined shapes of objects including a mug, framed picture, a dress, and the letters S and F.

PSA for romance authors and also the Ted Lasso writers room apparently, but if your "accidental/surprise pregnancy" storyline relies on a grown woman never thinking about her own risk of pregnancy while she's regularly having PIV sex, I'm out

Black-and-white photo of a white and ginger, tabby cat sitting on an outcropping of a building. The cat is not up very high and it can easily climb back over the short ball that it is sitting next to, so it is in no danger.

(2/2) Your typical monthly title is around 22 pages per issue, with an average of something like five panels per page, and even assuming the lead only appears in two-thirds of those panels, I can tell just by looking at them that nobody is drawing this character 75 times a month.

The Facial Expressions of Tethys by artist Julius von Bismarck. A suspended high-sea buoy that moves in real time. Sensors on a twin buoy out in the Atlantic Ocean send live satellite data to motors inside the museum. This makes the indoor buoy copy the exact, real-time movements of the ocean waves.

Fun fact, if you try to look up guides to recognizing AI tells in writing, most of the results are either behind paywalls or are themselves AI-generated. A stark example of how the internet is dividing into two realms: login-required real writing and extruded slop.
