You cannot support HP without supporting JKR. There is no line to be drawn. Simply showing support, even if you aren't buying anything, helps boost her social standings which gives her more power over others to do as she pleases. (aka commit trans genocide) I will block you if you support HP.

PeaceWolf, for the unfamiliar, chaired Free Fur All, the MAGA-esque right-winger furcon in Tulsa, which had 2 Gryphon as a GoH in 2022 and Jasonafex/Kabier in 2023. PeaceWolf famously fell in love with those latter Nazi fucks and left her husband for them, a story she illustrated in 2023.

I feel like more people should be talking about this part
Screenshot from the article that reads, The Stud, San Francisco's oldest gay bar, was only able to have its Meta pages restored because of the bars popularity among gay tech executives with connections to Meta

You should be asking why Rockstar gets to do this and doesn't run into any issues with payment processors, while the rest of anyone drawing or writing "explicit content" on any platform have so much trouble getting paid

It's fucking exhausting. And then people wrongly look at you and think "huh, the people who care are miserable, I guess the solution is to care less", not realizing not giving a shit is exactly how we got into this fucking mess to begin with. I'm SO TIRED.

You bang your head up against the wall over and over begging people to just *please* give a little percentage of a shit about this issue, but you have to accept, as you always do, that many people's ability to give a shit directly depends on whether it's a problem affecting *them* personally.

can't be comfortable even asking about things like this because there are people -- furries, even! -- that are hostile towards any sort of pushback or confrontation on bringing it up. i've seen it in so many spaces i've lost count at this point all 6 of your extra shiny strawberries look dissimilar

FA being told by advertisers that the most mundane of art is just too risqué to work with should be a good indicator why trying making your fandom squeaky clean to appease people, who will never be happy, is a shitty idea

that makes so much sense. fandom spaces experiencing an influx of newbies during the pandemic large enough to overwhelm onboarding processes -> newbies aren't accustomed to consensus opinions and start relitigating years (or decades) old arguments

Yet again, the Game UI Database is being scraped to the point that it's getting knocked offline. Even Cloudflare's "I'm under attack" mode isn't working. I just wanted to create a resource for real designers. I'm getting so fucking sick of this.

its so obvious that they just threw a screenshot of the game window into an image generation model, like theres literally a visible microphone icon????? and its not like the video is much better, its so cropped in and the mouse following is kinda jarring

The login page for @vrchat.com has an AI modified background for until it loads a video background, instead of featuring creator's worlds like it used to. This platform is falling apart.

learning our kitchen sink was completely detached from the drain pipes underneath it ~a week after we had some folks come out and look at it. bucket we had under it initially/before it was fixed was completely full thankfully realized it only part way into the pour, but now our kitchen smells awful

after being ill for 3 days you start to get hysterical over stuff like this
a skull toilet that has the text 'spooky dookie?'

the word 'or...' in the middle'

a skull urinal with the words 'creepy peepee' over it

i can't have a say about anything relating to furry gallery sites because i haven't used any of them in years and anything i do say will clearly be tossed into the wind, so if this queer/furry history is so important: archive it. get data archivists on that.

As a developer who takes pride in my work as a human endeavor, I'm *exhausted*. I see my profession being eroded on all sides by this. It has sucked much of the joy of coding out of my open-source work. The worst part, though, are the fascists who giggle and cheer as it makes life around us worse.
