Defending your Thanksgiving with “We don’t use it to celebrate genocide!” isn’t the issue. It’s still poison without a pilgrim hat.

It’s the mindlessness.

It’s the fact you eat a gluttonous meal on our stolen land while our access to food — our salmon, buffalo, corn — remains decimated. (1/3)

If you're uncomfortable with mutual aid requests, but want to help locally with bridging the SNAP garbage so people can eat, donate $$ to a food shelf. Food shelves can do things with cash like get food for less than retail prices, and get perishables, that they can't rely on donations for.

If you have food insecurity, this is something worth looking into. A feast for 10 could be 2 weeks of food for 1-2 people.
afaik it isn't confirmed that SNAP is getting cut in november but there has been news of the potential due to the gov. shutdown. if u or loved ones rely on snap, i implore you to take advantage of programs like this!! local food pantries & soup kitchens too!!
The government said they aren’t releasing SNAP benefits in November — but ALDI is helping families out. Their Thanksgiving meal bundle feeds 10 people for just $40! 🦃 Available now through Christmas Eve, it includes 21 items (like a 14-lb turkey + sides). Share this with everyone!

The very first things I actually learned about every non -Christian faith I have encountered is that what I thought I knew was largely wrong, or misinterpreted through the Christian lens of my upbringing.

listen i get that a lot of y'all white/non-black game designers think "Hoodoo/Voodoo Daddy" is a scary fun concept that can be throw into your games

but that is a very real religion people practice to this day, it's not just some fantasy concept you can slap on top of some offensive artwork

@inametaphor.bsky.social thought you might like this artist's work and we should look into getting the deck when it's done.
Making a pinned post of the FFXIV playing cards - I'll add to this thread two cards at a time. Info on how to support the making of the deck and order info once it's done will also be here when available.
First up, G'raha Tia and Zero.

After 5 years and a handful of weeks, my very first long form D&D campaign as GM is coming to a close. One more session, and then we'll take a month or so off before diving into a FATE game.

I second this. And I'm here to talk about my experiences and listen to yours.
I'm a mental health paraprofessional for my part time day job. Too many younger queers ill-prepared for what's at hand. (Gen & a half of people learned "it gets better".) We olds spent too much talking big symbolic points (not to say they're unimportant) and not enough time talking nuts & bolts.
I know this just be an especially terrifying time for younger queers. Please reach out to those of us in our 40s and 50s who lived through the days of attempted gay panic defenses and pickup drags. Lots of us are here for you to help share our experiences and survival with you.

I'm pretty sure this is nothing new to my followers, but in case it is, or you need a succinct thread, here you go.
"Kinksters don't belong at pride" Has already started so I'd like to remind our community why bdsm, leather, kink, fetish or however we're described is not only welcome but belongs at pride. Clutch your pearls in advance (a thread) ❤️🏳️‍🌈:

This is pretty cool to have all in one place!
With my ongoing projects happening, there is another I have had to put a pause with for the time. But I intend to return to at some point next year. That is my mesoamerican historical fashion studies. My goal is to eventually make a book. I will make a thread here of the ones I have done thus far.

Hear hear - say what you mean, people. And also manage your own reactions. I completely understand why creators get exhausted by this.
A note on why I despise “I’m so jealous!” Or “Wish that was me!” Replies on posts where I share a thing I’ve gotten/been sent/traveled to/bought.

What exactly am I (or anyone else you say this to) supposed to do with that type of response?

I can’t help your “jealousy”. Nor will I accept it.

I know a few folks who would be interested in this, I think
What if I did a longform video where I tackle a subject and build it out as a TTRPG concept?

All Gen 1 Pokemon as DND Monsters

Yugi's Deck to Build a Kingdom

Marvel Rivals Abilities as Magic Items

Is that something you would be interested in? Have a lot of ideas, so help is appreciated

The thing I'm learning about illumination is that I have the understanding of color theory down, but the writing and drawing skills are where I struggle. I just spent 15 minutes drawing red and black lines very close together. And my hand is sore but I think I see progress
