Just needs alt-text:
How to avoid sexual assault! A QUICK AND EASY GUIDE* 

sexual violence centre cork 

1 DON'T PUT DRUGS IN PEOPLE'S DRINKS 

4 WHEN YOU SEE A WOMAN WALKING BY HERSELF, LEAVE HER ALONE. 

3 WHEN YOU COME ACROSS SOMEONE WHO IS DRUNK OR ASLEEP, THE BEST THING TO DO IS NOT RAPE THEM. 

6 CARRY A WHISTLE. IF YOU THINK YOU MIGHT RAPE SOMEONE, BLOW THE WHISTLE UNTIL SOMEONE COMES TO STOP YOU.

2 USE THE BUDDY SYSTEM! IF YOU CAN'T STOP YOURSELF FROM SEXUALLY ASSAULTING SOMEONE, ASK A TRUSTED FRIEND TO ACCOMPANY YOU AT ALL TIMES TO STOP YOU. 

5 IF YOU ARE IN A LIFT AND SOMEONE STEPS IN, REMEMBER NOT TO SEXUALLY ASSAULT THEM.

*for perpetrators.

Thank you to the people who keep buying one of my books even though I haven't marketed it 😅 I'm not going to lie, life has been so rough lately but this has been helping 🥹🙏

Okay, I guess asking nicely isn't working, so begging it is. I have made no money this month, and my phone has broken, so I am kind of fucked. If I could get a few people to buy one or more of my books, that could alleviate it at least a little. Please. sylverwpoulsen.itch.io

Katie's next appointment should be easy, but it includes xrays and potentially blood work, which are both $$$. Check out the bundle or individual books here: itch.io/s/198894/hel...

Unlikely to make it out with my camera today, so here is another photo from yesterday's walk: Hummingbird, sipping from salvia flowers.
Hummingbird in flight, partially concealed amidst the plants. The bird is in profile, drinking from a stem of deep purple flowers.

Hey fellow writers. Logging back in to ask y'all a question. Does a crow based character feel like they'd have more plant/nature abilities or fire abilities? 🤔

Don't let the Ai discourse discourage you aspiring writers out there. Art is valued by its rarity, and the rarest thing in the world is the talent of a single individual. What can be mass produced for cheap has little value. You are an original. A one of a kind. A bespoke wonder. Never forget that.

I warned you that I'm resorting to nonsense now! idk why this is so funny to me but like. look at that thang.  Support my vampire anthology on Kickstarter, lest you be subjected to more ridiculous posts like this until we hit the funding goal 😜 tinyurl.com/exquisite-undead
A meme of that one weird taxidermy animal, edited to be holding copies of my vampire anthology and all the kickstarter goodies. Text around it says "much vampire very vibes wow" and "the vibes? exquisite. the vampires? exquisite. the stories? you guessed it. exquisite."

Admitting to using gen AI for your art or books or music, etc, is like the biggest self-own imaginable. Literally out of the gate you’re telling people you can’t, you care not and won’t even try but want credit anyways. So, like, is it a participation trophy you’re after? I doughnut get it.

Not me popping in like once a month when I remember this app exists haha. Hi hello, what'd I miss? I also wanted to give an update on my plans to publish the Messages sequel this year. Unfortunately, because of some unforeseen circumstances (large medical bills) I most likely- 1/2

This is quite literally the reason I stopped marketing my books and never published the Messages sequel and became a lot less active. No one seemed to care. It means so much to indie authors <3

This!! Please, this! And even if you simply cannot afford to buy it, recommend it to others. Ask for it to be carried in your local library. Heck, engage with the author through social media.

Hi, so AI killed my career(s) and I'm barely (sometimes not) making rent. People have been telling me to start a gofundme but I feel weird about that. But I thought maybe if I was contributing something? SOO I started making shitposting shirts. Can you share this and maybe think about grabbing some?
