Found the email I sent when I got accidentally added to the faculty listserv of an orthopedic surgery clinic and nobody would remove me so I sent this email to all faculty/staff/med students and they removed me almost immediately
Hello Bone Colleagues, 
I have invented a new type of ankle and I'm very excited to show it to you. Early raccoon trials suggest a 60% increase in scurrying speed and dramatic increases in fine motor banditry. I know we are not supposed to create super raccoons, but I think you'll change your mind and professional ethics when you see how cute they are. I believe we are on the cusp of a new era in advanced human scurrying because if medical science has taught me anything, it's that improvements in raccoons correspond 1:1 to improvements in humans.

Hi y'all! I'm still needing funding so my commissions are open ^^; just production might be slow while we're moving. My funds are pretty low right now as I haven't gotten much new work over September. Please take a look at my kofi for commissions, adopts and donations! ko-fi.com/aenverthil/c...

A word of advice to younger people in the community: if it seems like there's one person that dominates the social group and they talk smack about people when those folks aren't around to try and convince you to ditch them, they're doing the same when you're not around to other people.

Playing around with some quick n' dirty graphic design in the vein of WipEout and Vectorheart. #art #design #graphicdesign
Simple tricolor design, two identically-shaped angular stripes, the left a light blue, the right a bright orange on white. Within the blue a series of white glyphs that when converted to legible text reads "bird of prey" with two white triangles forming an abstract for representing the head and body of a falcon diving. In the orange, in a very square text following the angle of the stripe reads PEREGRINE in white, and the bottom another series of white glyphs that reads "our foes are below us"

“how do we win back trump voters in 2026” we don’t. we create an environment where admitting to voting for trump is so socially embarrassing as to render them completely inert. you don’t “win back” trump voters. you demoralize them into staying home. you make it a dunce cap

We are able to get my wife to the closest pep boys, just waiting for tow truck and then also taking care of the tire and to see if it’s safe to drive atm. If you’d like to help us out for this sudden financial emergency, you can send money to either me or her directly. Just DM either for details.

Managed to hunt down two photos of the kitbashed model built by Jim Bowers as reference for the original WipEout game, sometime around 1993 or 1994. You can see the logos on it are harvested from other kits- Toyota and Buick logos, USAF roundels, and more that I'm sure someone else could ID

Rod Serling was a king. WWII paratrooper in “The Death Squad,” TV pioneer, LOUD critic of McCarthyism who knew his status as a war hero put him in a privileged position to call shit out. Wrote critiques of racism into his scripts, created The Twilight Zone to escape the censorship that brought on.

For the second fiscal year in a row, NASA awarded ~20% fewer grants than the recent historical average. That's about 500 fewer grants going out to scientists around the country.

In regard to FurAffinity being at risk due to censorship: Furries are now political targets. We are getting namedropped at high levels of government. They know that we are a large, influential, largely queer, community. Fighting for the spaces owned by our community is incredibly important
