That joy must not be sold. It must not be "privatised," made into another privilege for the privileged. A public library is a public trust. And that freedom must not be compromised. It must be available to all who need it, and that's everyone, when they need it, and that's always. — Ursula K Le Guin

I truly don’t get the appeal of podcasts having to be video now. Podcasts are at their very best when you’re doing something else, working out or playing videogames etc, and no good podcaster has ever been someone who should be shown on screen that’s just not how that works. It’s a goblin job.

all discourse aside, there is one machine with consciousness. it's printers. they are alive and conscious and they hate you and they'd take your arm clean off if you let them. never trust a printer.

just a reminder that bandcamp friday is tomorrow & streaming services are interrupting music streams with ai generated shit, flooding the database with artists that don't exist in any way other than profiting the platform owners

so instead of paying a monthly fee, buy an album or two each month ok

I've been waiting all year to repost this 🎃

A pumpkin patch in a variety of shapes and colours, some with carved faces with different expressions. Between the pumpkins are black and white cats, crows, frogs, bushes, twigs and mushrooms.

You simply cannot make me spend my time on this stuff. Oh the president said Tylenol causes autism? Well it doesn't. No I'm not going to pore through research papers to prove it to you. That's not what my time is for. My time is for playing videogames and gazing lovingly at my wife.

I illustrated a tribute to my beloved cat, who is the most evil princess a cat can be. I love her.

illustration of a long haired tuxedo cat on her back against a bunch of different flowers- some real, some not. the colors of the illustration are yellow, pink, purple, blue, orange and green. some real flowers included are crocus, rose, peony, anemone, bleeding heart, grape hyacinth, and daisies.
