I want to add here & highlight that there is a post by our lovely DoktorHobo (on PF) all about what kind of art Pillowfort bans. If youre considering PF for your #NSFWart works and youre worried about its longevity, I hope this post helps you!

DoktorHobo: Let's talk about what kind of art PF bans, and what it doesn't.

Whenever Pillowfort gets mentioned on social media, comments surface where people are either unsure what kind of NSFW media is safe to post here, or say with great confidence that specific things are ...

I'm excited that I can celebrate a special Trigun day by sharing the full piece I did for @desertroseszine.bsky.social!
Rem tending to plants... The green ones. 🌱

#trigun #remsaverem #kuroneko #myart

An illustration featuring Rem Saverem. She is standing amidst a room filled with plants, one she is currently watering. Her back is somewhat turned to the viewer. A couch is placed on the left hand side, kuroneko is sleeping on it.

#trigun a nice day to share the piece i did for the desert rose zine last year (+important detail shots) :>

a digital illustration of luida and rem sitting together at a table in a seeds ship room full of potted plants, drinking tea and going over paperwork. rem is happily distracted by several photos she’s brought of a young vash, knives and tesla seeming to enjoy happy childhoods. luida smiles over it with some fond exasperation.

a closer shot of rem’s photos. in her hand is a photo of young vash eating a cookie, cheeks stuffed like a chipmunk. on the table is a photo of tesla flashing a peace sign with knives behind her, his hand in the air. a second photo shows rem and tesla together, smiling brightly as they hug. a photo in a frame in the background shows luida with a young vash, happily waving his prosthetic.

another close shot of rems paperwork slightly covering a photo of young knives standing very still with a cowboy hat on his head. his expression is indecipherable, but you should assume he’s overjoyed.

Welcome new people. I was asked at dinner last night whether Bluesky was an echo chamber. I said it doesn’t matter, because what I want from social media isn’t to talk to young republicans taking a break from their group chat, but to read things I want to read but that I might have missed.

David M. Perry @lollardfish.bsky.social · Jun 12

The thing I want most from social media is for people to share things that I might want to read or watch that otherwise I wouldn’t read or watch, whether news, commentary, books, movies, tv, games to play, whatever. Bluesky does this. /4

In the 14thC dwarf trees were known as 'Hachi-no-ki' (鉢の木), after the deepish bowls they were grown in.
A famous 1383 Noh play by Zeami (世阿弥) called 'Hachi-no-ki' (in which a samurai burns his last 3 trees to warm a traveling monk) helped popularize these proto-Bonsai.

They're easy to make sense of in arrangements of even numbers of lights, but I still haven't figured it out for odd numbers.

Everything about John Roberts's approach to the Voting Rights Act makes sense when you remember that John Roberts has has always been hostile to the Voting Rights Act, never believed it was appropriate, and has spent most of his 45-year legal career working to hollow it out.

One of the Biggest Cases of the Supreme Court’s Term Is John Roberts’ Decadeslong Pet Project

If there’s one thing the Roberts court has been consistent on, it’s this.

If it makes you feel any better, cub scouts weren’t fighting bears in the woods either.
They were selling popcorn and lighting campfires.
