we may live in the "you'll own nothing and you'll be happy" era but a way to resist is by maintaining ownership over *your own work* and professional presence. tapas doesn't care about your comic and when twitter tanks nobody will care about how many followers you had. CLAIM YOUR WORK + RESIST!!

always, always ALWAYS have your own website - do not rely solely on social media and do not hand anything over to platforms like tapas/webtoons/etc. i cannot stress this enough!!!!!!

How August kinda feels to me

Illo of an energetic young lady walking her basket bike through shallow waves at the end of the day. There's a bit of celebratory confetti sprinkled around. There are balloons tied to the bike. The lady has big coily hair, a bright pink top and a pleated denim skirt. Drawn by gdbee, paint tool sai 2 Aug 2026

If SCREEN were to pass, you'd be required to scan your face and upload an ID to access this site because it allows "harmful" material. This affects you even if you don't care about sex work or porn.

A stylized illustration of a bipedal purple bunny character with a matching purple dress with a watering can, watering a pink flower.

There’s a rainbow behind. Text reads, “everything will be okay in the end. If it’s not okay, it’s not the end!”

Deleted my original salt: but I'm watching FFXIV fanfest berlin. I'm not excited about the raid themes. Both are from IP that I burned out on over 2 decades ago. Last raid theme I got really excited by was EW's. That said: Typing of the dead in gold saucer! :D :D :D

Please leave a comment telling the government that you DO NOT want Medicaid tied to a work requirement and why that is unfair, especially for disabled people. Begging you all to take 2 minutes to do this please.

I really hope I can get through this blasted call system tomorrow to set up an appointment to get my eyes checked out. My eyes are starting to suck and I want them fixed via glasses. I also hope I can grab a copy of the prescription so I can get a couple of glasses cheaply too.

Before anyone begins doomposting: There are still two stops it has to pass before it gets into law. And the senate doesn't like the House version of KOSA so there's a chance it doesn't pass. But don't just assume.

this is actually a good reminder that you should delete the tracking nonsense off of any url that you share online. just delete everything after the ? (including the question mark) and share like you usually would

I think on Monday or Tuesday after my other appointment, I have to call my doctor because I haven't gotten anything from them. :/ But also, I'm worried my phone is blocking them for some reason? They're not blocked but it's still weird they haven't called back.

My house in FFXIV shouldn’t look this cool in the fog. #ffxiv

A lovely wood house/tree with a campfire, a metric ton of trees and a kiddie pool. There’s a frog waterwheel too but look flowers! So many flowers. Also there’s a guy there I guess.

Two lips meet in spring 🌷💋🌷 #art #cottagecore #sapphic

A soft vintage-style drawing of two women in cottagecore spring dresses, one fair-skinned with strawberry blonde hair dressed in pink, the other dark-skinned with curly brown hair dressed in green. They lean in towards each other with their eyes closed, a large bouquet of pink tulips held between them and obscuring their faces in a demure fashion.

happy *quiet, chill* pride

The chill otter is laying down next to a phone with rainbow beams fanning out of it. They look at the phone and see it says June 1st, and after a brief contemplation, they snuggle up under a progress pride blanket, phone plugged in farther away. It reads “It’s ok if you are tired. Happy *quiet, chill* Pride.”
