Just finished reading Atana and the Jade Mermaid by @vivianz.bsky.social. Genuinely one of the best graphic novels. Reading it at a time in my life when I’m struggling with identity and figuring out what ‘home’ means… I cried a lot. And then stopped crying to appreciate the art. Much love. 🩵🩵

Write, draw, be creative, take breaks, I don't know, do whatever the hell you've got to do to cope, bro. Keep the things that give you joy close and spread them around. Shit sucks right now. I have no idea when it won't suck so much. But whatever you're doing to get by right now is valid.

Just bought a copy of this! Might do a liveblog of reading it once I get it 👀
This project was the most challenging thing I've ever worked on, but I learned SO MUCH and I'm a stronger creator than ever before because of my suffering hahaha. I really want people to see how much my art has levelled up LOL so selfishly, I really REALLY want people to read this.

Your PFP is your therapist
Um. So. She’d be a good listener I think. Ms Mosaic Fish if you have wisdom to share I am all ears.

Went to a pub quiz today and a question was which US state is the Grand Canyon in and when I tell you Jet Lag the Game started playing in my mind like a flashback as I saw @samfromwendover.bsky.social eat soup in a helicopter as he completed the Arizona challenge. Thank you Sam.

I was at @puzzledpint.bsky.social today! Had an evening of wonderful puzzle solving. Also ran into @quizzydan.bsky.social which was a delight.

I'm tired of having to coddle harry potter fans

if you have spent money on harry potter in the last five years, your money has contributed to the deaths of real trans people & the defense of their killers

that is a fact, don't celebrate a harry potter video game during pride month for fuck's sake

apparently people on tumblr are doing a "hogwarts legacy pride week" (where they're sharing LGBTQ-themed hogwarts legacy content) how about you not do that let's stop trying to pretend like it is possible to make pro-LGBTQ content out of that franchise

another hidden/externalized cost and form of theft in AI is the bots for Meta etc are blowing up site hosting charges of pages they're looting for information to take credit for. profits go to meta and others, made possible by costs spread to all the operators of sites they're crawling to steal from
Last month AI crawlers generated 90% of my site's traffic, forcing me to pay penalties

Problem solved after moving nameservers to Cloudflare+turning on AI crawler blocking.

Site monthly outbound data back to ~40GB per month, down from 800GB (!!) No impact on human visitors

No cops at Pride includes the cop in your head who tells you to police other queer people. Learn the difference between being uncomfortable and being harmed. Deal with your discomfort on your own time. Pride is for the community, not just you.

Resist. Rejoice. Remember.

I dedicate this year's pride knight to my community. My trans family, friends and loved ones are beautiful, resilient and amazing and we will continue to thrive like the weeds society treats us as.

Happy Pride. Trans liberation at any cost.
