The Fig Economy @figgityfigs.bsky.social · 11h

Sometimes my wife and I like to send each other text messages as though they’re democratic fundraising messages, and I believe she has produced the jewel of the form.

, it's
and I
have some personal news to share with you.
Being a mom is one of the greatest joys of my life, and I feel deeply that we should have salad tonight
This year has been challenging in many ways, and I have immense gratitude for the kindness and support of family, community, and people like you who have continued to stand by me through everything. It means the world, and I wanted you to be among the first to know that squash is in the oven and kale is in the fridge.

As many of you are aware, ve been navigating one of the most challenging periods of my day while waiting for dinner.
Facing baseless federal hunger brought on by not eating since lunch, fighting for the working kids of this country, and now caring for a mean toddler and helping him grow up in a world that isn't always easy. But it has also reminded me exactly why I do this work and who I do it for.
I will never stop working to eat dinner. I will never stop fighting for what is right, even when there is also some feta in the fridge. And I will never stop being so very thankful that you are by my side in this important work and that there is tahini in the pantry for dressing
With love and gratitude,
stop to end

Part of why I don't like the AI-or-bust economy is the constant flopsweat of people on the news who say this HAS to work. Quit making everyone so anxious. Goddamn. If this is the next Google then why are you acting like this? I don't remember being told to buy an iPhone at gunpoint.

"You failed to properly compensate during the ion storm. Your agonizer, please."

A screenshot of the MYSTERY SCIENCE THEATER 3000 episode "Last of the Wild Horses," depicting the crew of the Satellite of Love as their "Mirror, Mirror" counterparts. Mike Nelson has a goatee and has his hand out asking for the agonizer. Crow is dressed in an "evil crew" uniform and looks more-or-less unconcerned. The other two 'bots (both from the non-mirror universe) stand nearby.

I find that suitably interesting! Do you have a favored charitable cause that you'd prefer me to send $20 to?

I would bet $20 to charity that @turhansbeycompany.bsky.social would provide an interesting answer to the question "What TL is 'being a klutz'?"

Probably because it's all going to crash, and no one wants to build expensive factories that'll be obsolete once demand goes back to normal and existing production is more than enough?

“Understands” is doing interesting work here. What Hegseth means here is “accepts.” What he and his ilk want is mainstream acceptance of their warped and bigoted views. To be lauded for them, a kind of twisted “pride” declaration. All the more reason we must repudiate them.

Social media is suffering from Dumbest Guy In The Bar syndrome, where like one dude can say a ridiculous thing like "Christopher Columbus was made of cotton candy" and the rest of the bar will spend the entire night pointing out how stupid it is over and over and the dipshit already left hours ago.

Fun fact: I did the math and came to the conclusion that if you ignore the absurd coin weights in D&D, the value of similar goods in GURPS and D&D aren't very different. A D&D silver piece buys about $0.79 worth of goods in GURPS. The Runequest sp is also close in purchasing power to the GURPS $.

Between the top hat, cane, and exact pose, it's hard to imagine it's NOT...

A comic ad: "CAP'S GONNA STAR IN A BROADWAY SHOW... AND MAYBE YOU CAN STAR WITH HIM!"

The comic image shows Captain America dancing with a top hat and cane on a red-curtained stage. Information in the ad encourages girls between 10 and 14 who can sing, dance, and act to send their photo and background info to a New York address that is almost certainly no longer relevant.

Frustrating to me, the INTERNET ITSELF was the quickest, most-egalitarian source of information… before destroyed by AI. I've learned so much that began with "Why is [X]?" Trivial question? Lots of folks have addressed it. Complex? A new deep dive…or chance to ask REAL HUMANS (Wiki, Reddit, etc).

As a creator/publisher: I'd REALLY like for Sweet Shop to work out. Post-Amazon buyout, Comixology died on the vine. It's a non-service, at this point. Sweet Shop is run by ppl who actually give a crap about comics and want to make it easier for people to read them. So grab some ultra-cheap books!

Fuck ChatGPT flyers. The future is broadsheets.

A crowded broadsheet with way too many fonts. It says:
Forget ChatGPT Flyers
Say it with
Broadsheets
Unlimited fonts
Stretch them
Or cram a really long sentence into one line for no good reason
No whitespace
Mix capital and lowercase
Pointing hands

I failed to appreciate how the Internet would end up amplifying and rewarding the too-cool-for-school "best to just assume it sucks and complain preemptively" contrarian mindset as far as popular media… as if millions base their personality on "You're gonna entertain ME? F--- you! Work harder! BOO!"

25th Amendment: Whenever there is a vacancy in the office of the Vice President, the President shall nominate a Vice President who shall take office upon confirmation by a majority vote of both Houses of Congress. And isn't that what happened when Ford became President…Agnew resigned, Nixon quit?

Oh no, the consequences of your own terrible actions! I swear, the victim mentality and narcissism of lines like, "No one has supported Pokemon more in the past than us, helping distribute the product at fair market value [scalper prices] instead of underpriced MSRP." Go to hell, scalpers.
