Don't mention NSFW and don't mention the word commission as well, to be safe.

Sharing to help many. Keep going guys and be careful.
Apparently P*ypal now asks for customer opinions on accounts sending invoices.
If you are paying an invoice to a nsfw artist, do NOT mention NSFW in any way, keep it blank even. you risk both your account and the artists.

Denigrating Native Americans is an essential part of the white supremacist narrative (along with downplaying chattel slavery). It's meant to whitewash any sins committed in the formation and expansion of the European colonies in the Americas.
What is Vance’s obsession with this? He’s talked about it multiple times?
VP JD Vance stood before a crowd and tried to falsify history, claiming Christians ended widespread mass child-sacrifice practices among Native Americans

On this day, Indigenous people and allies confront the settler-colonial narratives of “Thanksgiving,” observing it instead as a National Day of Mourning.

america pardons nothing. it gave no mercy to the 50,000,000 buffalo it slaughtered for settler westward expansion farmland & city growth. it gave no mercy to the 20,000,000 salmon it decimated to pollute our waters & build factories. it gave no mercy to *us* - Natives - in the same way & never has.

Gio was still a fetus, but it's when his biological father came & attacked the troupe's camp to try to force his mother to abort him.

Wagons burned. Troupe members died.

So he was raised knowing that the nobility is only "kind" when you're useful to them.

He especially wants to crush his father.

There's a mormon charity vending machine at a local mall. You putnin money, they give you "helping others" feels.

I want to tape a paper on it telling their elders to just pay some money forward out of their VERY LARGE treasury instead of asking me, a pleb trying to make it, to contribute.

Everyone knows data centers use a ton of water.

What hardly anyone knows: they can poison the water that remains.

And in eastern Oregon, Amazon is doing exactly that.

My favorite trope I've twisted so far is that when Feliens (cat-people) go into biological rut, culturally they still make sure to establish consent before they get down to Business with someone.

It's Very Bad if they don't. And most of them have a FWB on standby so there's minimized pressure.

Anti-tropes: what are some tropes that you've purposefully avoided in your WIP? OR, are there any tropes that you've put a twist on?

It fits neatly into eugenics based ideas that our identity is founded in "blood" not community or culture. A disconnected person for whom rumored "blood" is a pass being used to drown out the voices of people who are invested in their culture and their community is an injury to everyone involved.

You mean it isn't killing the people that *don't* believe in it?!? Shocking. 🤔
The main different between generative AI and a parasite is that a parasite is smart enough not to kill its host.

I remember having a UBI. It was called “living with my parents,” and I had all my food/shelter needs covered, plus free access to a (shared) TV, music, books, a library card, cars I could borrow and more.

I still worked drudge jobs, because I wanted to buy lots of comics and take girls to movies.
Always grinds my gears when people say "No one would work drudge jobs if there was a UBI"

But even staying completely capitalist, I disagree. If I received a baseline living-wage UBI, and then I was offered REWARDS for drudge jobs, I'd take it! I want to save up for treats and travel and hobbies!

Friendly reminder that striking workers are asking you not to patronize ANY Starbucks store.

If you're traveling this week, your airport definitely has other options. Zero reason to even think about crossing a picket line!

I think these usually turn into my characters' hubrises. (Hubrii?) Aubrey from Dancing book, for example, doesn't get any approval at home. So he seeks it away at school. A people-pleaser, he'll do anything for others but not enough for himself. In a nascent poly relationship, that's poison.

Hello network. This is real shit. I’m looking for transgender, nonbinary, or gender nonconforming front and back end web designers for a project to help trans people get housing in NJ. This is a paid opportunity.

He's also facing legal resistance in the lower courts, in some cases verging on jury nullification. Efforts to prosecute political enemies keep failing.

In short, the attempts to actually exercise arbitrary, autocratic power keep being rebuffed.
