I made the swap to Linux last month, so I did this drawing of Avenix to test everything out! This took me WAY longer to draw than usual, but I think that mostly came down to needing to relearn a lot of stuff in Krita that used to be muscle memory lol #SciFi #Alien #Space #furry
A digital illustration of Avernix, a very pale teal alien with darker teal spots. She has a humanoid body with 4 arms and a tail, and a long-snouted face with 6 long, rabbit-like ears. She is dressed in a dark blue suit with a blue shirt underneath, and she is holding a blue glowing orb.

they're just in too deep is all. if they admit they've been pretending Mitch McConnell is still alive, the "Weekend at Bernie's" jokes could propel Bernie Sanders' socialist-backed candidates to a rousing success in the midterms. they're in too deep. can't stop now

one thing i really don't like about Android is that screenshots are state-independent. if my phone is in greyscale mode and i take a screenshot, the screenshot isn't greyscale; it has all the original colors as if i didn't have a color filter on. i want screenshots that are true to my screen

While everyone's "all the love to trans folks" posts are nice and it is good to see support We have been getting them for a decade now. If you want to support trans folks, hire us. Support GFMs and asks for mutual aid. Put yourself between trans folks in public if you see harassment.

‘Say yes and never do it’ Mel Brooks knew how to deal with the studios
You have some wonderful stories of basically getting away with stuff at the studios.

I’d learned one very simple trick: say yes. Simply say yes. Like Joseph E. Levine, on “The Producers,” said, “The curly-haired guy—he’s funny looking. Fire him.” He wanted me to fire Gene Wilder. And I said, “Yes, he’s gone. I’m firing him.” I never did. But he forgot. After the screening of “Blazing Saddles,” the head of Warner Bros. threw me into the manager’s office, gave me a legal pad and a pencil, and gave me maybe twenty notes. He would have changed “Blazing Saddles” from a daring, funny, crazy picture to a stultified, dull, dusty old Western. He said, “No farting.” I said, “It’s out.”That’s probably the most famous scene in the movie, the campfire scene.

I know. He said, “You can’t punch a horse.” I said, “You’ll never see it again.” I kept saying, “You’re absolutely right. It’s out!” Then, when he left, I crumpled up all his notes, and I tossed it in the wastepaper basket. And John Calley, who was running [production at] Warner Bros. at the time, said, “Good filing.” That was the end of it. You say yes, and you never do it.

That’s great advice for life.

It is. Don’t fight them. Don’t waste your time struggling with them and trying to make sense to them. They’ll never understand.

english isn't for cowards. if you're not saying 'torpify,' that's a skill issue. there's no Académie Française telling you what to do. if you try to type 'pallific' and freak out when you see a little red underline, maybe you're not ready to roll with the big dogs.

Measure 120 has failed handedly. If it had been two separate measures i think one of them would've had a chance, but genuinely there's no way an increase to the gas tax could have passed right now

There is nothing this movie could ever be but a cowardly soulless husk of what it was. It was cannibalized to represent a warning to be complacent to genocide in exchange for a paycheck. It’s a dead franchise stolen away and weaponized for silence. All the actors are cowards too btw.
