When you're a raccoon, sometimes it's #RaccoonKnifeTime

So, #Spotify is a dead platform just like Twitter/X.

Wow, I was right, @patflickner.bsky.social‬ is just a bot and can't respond once their cover is blown.

Very true.

Please replicate a card in the Hallmark style which reads “Thank you for helping us by making things we need, Mr Replicator”. That’s for you.

Now for Chief @annoyedobrien.bsky.social can you make heavy-duty cleaning supplies and launch them to him, please? Aim for the shoulder, as usual, thanks!

I like to believe the artist really did return some day. The alternative is too crushingly sad. x_x

Taking applications for people to do hag stuff with.

Comic cred: cassandracalin.tumblr.com

Comic by https://cassandracalin.tumblr.com

Comic features a person who receives a text asking to hag out but was a typo to hang out. Person replies no let’s actually hag out and the final panel shows two people dressed like witches (hags)mixing things into a cauldron.

Your enemies will tell you there is no point in fighting back. They tell you this to break your morale, but in so doing, they tell on themselves. They fear being stood up to, or else they would not work so hard to downplay it. If someone says fighting back doesn't matter, make it matter.

About three years ago I wouldn't have believed that.

I'd have said "you had me up to the picture, but that was too implausible. As if they'd display such a convenient thing showing they think their own motives are evil".

Now...that's about that I expect from Israel thugs (also MAGA/Republicans).

You sure can! And it's proper darkvision, not just low-light vision too. ^_^

This is the right-wing in a nutshell. They create problems, and instead of fixing anything they pick scapegoats to punish. Usually it's minorities like non-whites, LGBT+ people, or the disabled. Until it's one of these "you made us look bad" moments and they turn on each other.
