The failure of the “blue no matter who” crowd to rally behind Mamdani really just lays the reality of that position bare, doesn’t it?

It’s a little known fact that trans folk have some of the strongest magnetic fields in the known universe.

Martha [1/4]

A hooded figure trudges towards a small mice tailor's shop in a tree hollow.

The hooded figure pokes their head into the hollow to greet the mouse tailor.

The hooded figure asks the mouse tailor to prepare a quick magical order for a party.

The hooded figure asks for grand glittery decorative pauldrons, as wide as they can bear, as majestic as those worn in the age of heroes.

I don't think I've come across a poem that taps into my ethos when it comes to navigating queer community within the context of a hostile world as much as "We Have Enough Dead Friends" by Lena Oleanderson.

I strive to make my home a sanctuary where other faggots feel safe and cared for.

We Have Enough Dead Friends
By Lena Oleanderson

Come over. The doors are open,
my flat's a mess and
so is my heart
but the doors are always open.
Come over. I will make soup,
probably from frozen but
the important thing is
we will both eat.

You don't have to be dying,
but if you are,
or you feel like you are,
or if living's been hard,
call me, and I will show up.
It doesn't have to be that bad,
it doesn't have to be bad at all,
but if it is, please call.

Do you want me to do the groceries?
Do you want me to mop the floors?
Do you need to be held;
you don't have to be dying to be held.
If you want me to be there, I want to.

I'm on the bathroom floor again,
and breathing is hard,
and eating's been hard, and sleeping,
the world is a laden thing
rolling around on my chest lately.
Just being alive is heavy tonight,
but we have enough dead friends.
Come over.

I should make a version of ublock that replaces every ad with a playable copy of Doom

Jon Bois @jonbois.bsky.social · 1d

i don't click on new york post articles but i can't honestly say it's because of any principled stand. it's because it has so many ads that if you let it all load the page weight is around 2 gigs. you could load one article claiming that sidewalks are bad or you could run about 500 copies of doom

Also thinking more about stream stuff, I don't think I'm going to start CrossCode tomorrow. Due to Extra Life I probably won't be streaming a week from tomorrow, so I don't want to have a single session of a new game then skip a week. Tomorrow will probably just be a chill random game.

Concept art illustration of a purple and white anthro owl character wearing monochromatic techwear fashion. Their outfit consists of a white trenchcoat with avant garde lapels over a black wide necked shirt and technical cargo pants with red straps, suspenders, and accents on the pockets. Their wings are fully spread behind them, displaying constellation and star markings across their feathers.

I went to the Minnesota zoo Jack o' lantern show tonight with @tormod.dog and I'm always blown away by how good the art is and the variety of subjects. They let the artists do whatever, which leads to things like a Fatal Frame fanart pumpkin, which rocks. One of my favorite events of the year.

Another pumpkin painted in a similar fashion, this one has a beer detailed picture of a barn owl in flight under a full moon

A third pumpkin with a painting of a badger with a soft expression looking at the viewer

Finally, a pumpkin with a painting of a scene from Majora's Mask, prominently featuring the moon from that game

you do not, in fact, ever have to defend or carry water for your employer

doing so is bad for your personal growth long-term, and you will almost certainly come to regret it in time

i think marina's necromancy skill is extremely funny

abella from fear and hunger termina, a young woman with long red hair and overalls. she looks a little dismayed/worried. "Um... what'cha got there?"

marina, a young girl from fear and hunger termina, with long brown hair and a high-collared shirt, staring calmly ahead while sticking her tongue out to drink a smoothie from a straw. behind her are two army men, significantly taller than her, with white eyes and drooling mouths, groaning like zombies.
"A smoothie."

My son was basically a celebrity trick or treating tonight. He was on cloud 9 from all the attention. Worth the effort!
