I recently learned that my dog has a benign tumor. This, along with utilities, supplies, and bills has forced me into a pretty tight predicament. So for the next four to six months, I will have 20 slots open with a quarter/half of the proceeds going into the savings goal.

Today (it started hours ago in Australia) is World Wombat Day. These lovable beasts are facing formidable challenges--habitat destruction, cars, mange--leaving 2 of the 3 species endangered.

There are many rescues devoted to aiding wombats either coming out of the wild or going in. Check 'em out!

The longer I live the more I realize that sexual repression has had severe, far reaching effects on both the individual and society at large.

We really aughtta put a stop to it.

It's hard to fathom for most people just how much effort and money is being poured into anti-trans shit, but it's billionaires, the entire apparatus of religious right think tanks like ADF, Heritage etc, entire media empires like Rupert Murdoch's, whole political parties and world governments...

Charlie Jane "Lessons in Magic and Disaster" Anders 🏳️‍⚧ @charliejane.bsky.social · 1d

I'm so sick of discourse from supposed allies about where trans people went wrong.

Where we "went wrong" is that billionaires spent unimaginably large sums to attack us repeatedly and major media outlets have spent a decade piling on.

Here’s the design that started my Halloween pumpkin monster tradition in 2019! It was inspired by a weird pumpkin/gourd I found

Illustration of a creature. It stands on two legs and is covered in bumps and growths. A second drawing next to it shows what the creature’s open mouth looks like

Gonna say it: if you have time to make fun of me for not wanting to accept censorship in America, you have time to e-mail your reps about the issue. Anytime you feel like dunking on someone because they don't wanna use crypto or a VPN, you should be using that energy to contact reps instead. Thanks!

DCS 🔞 @darkchibishadow.bsky.social · 15d

Some assholes found some of my posts again, looks like. What a bummer! People truly are happy to just accept the censorship sweeping across America and they really think VPNs are going to go unchallenged forever, huh? Yikes.

If you live in these states make damn sure to not give a second of peace to them, make their phones ring and their mailboxes bloat daily.

KOSA must be pushed against with full force.

It is time to paint witches!! 🔮🌙

watercolor and ink painting- a witch stands facing the viewer. She is wearing an outfit based on traditional Scandinavian dress, save the witch hat of course. She holds a staff in her hands that has a sleeping moon on it and a long red banner. She stands, a vignette, in front of an archway made of entangled trees.
