The Year Without Sunshine - Uncanny Magazine During one of the much smaller disasters that preceded the really big disaster, I met a lot of my neighbors online. I can’t remember if we set up the WhatsApp group because of the pandemic or the civi...

This is why @naomikritzer.bsky.social's The Year Without Sunshine is one of my favorite disaster stories: www.uncannymagazine.com/article/the-...

primordial eyeling

have definitely heard/seen the phrase "justice-involved client" consistently in the psychotherapy sphere, but that tends to be more of an inside baseball thing and the field is already very full of jargon that really doesn't (and doesn't need to) move outside its borders

People who use AI to make images on their behalf have no idea how much their actual art would be loved not just by normal people, but also the artists they're stealing from by using it.

Gorgeous!

black and white/greyscale image. a drawing of Cinnamon, a humanoid cat demon creature. Cinnamon has a cat's face , two short black horns, spots (that I neglected in this image), black spot eyebrows and black-tipped ears. Cinnamon is holding the stub of a candle in front of them in their bare hands and looking up towards the viewer while the candle lights their face, hands, chest. Their mood is ambiguous. The rest of the image is black, with just a little dark grey around the light and a few speckles of dust caught in the light.

#3301 You have startled the cat!

Why does everyone have a fucked up stethoscope!!!

It's the annual Ask a Manager salary survey! Every year, vastly fewer men fill this out than women. Men, please share your salary info (anonymously) so we have concrete salary comparisons to inform pay negotiations and fight the pay gap

heartbreakingly cute!

might be a weird one but King Arthur Flour has good mixes (cakes and otherwise). It's really satisfying to play with dough for something like garlic knots or focaccia without having to do as much measuring etc. and they always taste great!

One Element

An isolated cumulus cloud is being pulled into some sort of void against a deep blue sky. If I could just get high enough, I could get through it. Please, let me go.

An endless sea of altrostratus clouds is broken by a stress fracture. Blood has soaked the crack and is pouring from the sky above. The weight of whatever was up there was too much.

Clouds stretch across the sky in bands that resemble a rib cage. The sunset beneath saturates the sky in blood red. The world is doing you no favors, you know.

A luminous singular cloud in the shape of a brain floats in an unknown space. Tendrils and sinew hang below it, probably the last vestiges and memories of what was. Can you really leave everything behind?

A wish for the severing of one's own head.

Soccer stadium, large fabric flag of Mae Borowski from Night In The Woods, holding an axe and wearing team colors. There is text in the Night In The Woods title font on the right and left. It reads "From Stonewall a brick and Portland an Axe, Respect our pride or expect our wrath." It's cool

I don't think I need to clarify my stance on the topic but these soccer folks summed it up

kind of want to redo this one

"Sure, I probably shouldn't go into the basement the unidentifiable noise is emanating from, but could I really live with myself if I didn't get a good story out of this?"

“You’re in America.”

I desperately need book recs, I keep either plowing thru stuff too fast or finding it unsatisfactory and dropping it. Latest (full) reads: Ministry of Time, Universal Harvester, The Echo Wife, Library@Mount Char and reread lots of DWJ & t.kingfisher between as comfort

honestly, beautifully said

reading a book I generally like a lot and it's funny, but then I ran into essentially just the well-known "good grade in therapy" tweet almost verbatim and now I'm like, how many of these jokes are original and how many are just from sources I'm not familiar with :/

seeing someone identifying themselves as a therapist and confidently saying incorrect information and biting my tongue very hard because it's not high-consequence incorrect information but i just want to acknowledge I AM BEING GOOD ABOUT IT
