I mean come on, this is so good I could cry

A quilt portrait of a young man in a jaunty jacket, shirt, and tie. His Black skin is depicted in blues and purples, his clothes are a loud riot of oranges, yellows, blues, and greens. He’s got a jaunty newsboy cap worn at a lil’ tilt. He is set against an orange and cream floral background fabric

A quilt portrait of a striking young woman. The background fabric is red and cream geometric stripes. The girl is seated in a green chair and is sitting with her hands lightly resting in her lap. She states confidently ahead, straight at the viewer. She wears a bodice of cowrie shells and has beautiful bangles on each wrist. Her Black skin is depicted in a gorgeous array of pinks, purples, blues, and lime green

There’s just 3 days left to vote in the America’s Favorite Pet contest. Please vote for Aces. He helps me write my books and purrs a lot at night, especially when he doesn’t want me to sleep. If he wins, some of the prize money will go to an animal shelter. americasfavpet.com/2024/aces-ea7f

Will Aces take home $10,000, be featured on the cover of Modern Cat, and take the title of America’s Favorite Pet? You decide!

Aces is my office mate and my little guy who sleeps on my head every night.

It's depressing how much of the misery we are collectively experiencing is entirely manufactured by the ruling class, who could make things easier for everyone but actively choose not to every single day.

It is bANANAS that this is the system!!! like, imagine if we didn't have companies trying to do literally everything just so they could hold onto that idea of grow grow grow -- just do what you're good at and make enough to pay people well and then do it again the next year!!

it’s not a crime to be annoying or cringe and i think everyone could benefit from a reminder that you can just not like someone. it doesn’t make them a bad person or undeserving of support

lots of discourse on whether there should be a True Detective S5 but only one right answer: hire Gillian Anderson and David Duchovny at their current ages, name their characters Mulder and Scully, make them longtime (work) partners, do not otherwise acknowledge the existence of X-Files in the show

Is writing alt text inaccessible to you? Have you seen people on here mentioning Alt4Me and wondering what it is or how to use it? Alt4Me is a feed where volunteers come to find requests for someone to write alt text for posted images. That's it! Simple, right? 🧵📌
