Artist alleys at comic cons bum me out sometimes because I’ll see artists who’ve inspired me my whole life grinding away hour by hour when they should all be comfortable as hell and doing whatever they want, making whatever they want. I want that for everybody!
Miles Morales co-creator Sara Pichelli says she does not get any royalties from the ‘Spider-Verse’ films, Insomniac games, or merch

One of my neighbors has been putting up these fish facts posters. All kinds of different fish, marine, freshwater, deep, shallow, all kinds. This is a good one. “Stg this real fish” took me out. Good work, neighbor.

Re-reading Lord of the Rings at the moment, and I'd forgotten how relentlessly Gandalf drags Hobbits.
"Of course, The Enemy has overlooked one thing: dipshits such as yourself, Frodo. Buffoons with fat feet and shithole burrows. Yes, perhaps your painful loser energy may surprise Sauron yet!"

One of the pious legends about St. Nicholas is that even as a baby, he would observe days of fasting, refusing to nurse on those days. This stone carving circa 1140-1150 depicts the infant Nicholas turning away from his mother (probably rather inconvenient, if you ask most moms).

No judgements, but you don’t want to be a sugar baby or a trad wife. You want universal basic income and affordable housing.

It’s the time of year when I do my Christmas auction. This mouse icon is up for auction and it’s to raise money for Shelter Cymru & Doctors without borders. 100% of the money raised will go to these charities on a 50-50 basis.

An easy way to explain luddites:
Textile manufacturers brought in machines that could do in an hour what would have taken 12 hours by hand.
And then, tried to keep paying the now 12x more productive workers the same wages as before.
That's it, that was the problem luddites had. Not complex.
