Reporting from a place where kids DO get free food at school: Any system of vouchers, tickets, payment on site, payment in advance, debt, etc., is not only stigmatizing to kids, but a huge hassle for the underpaid staff or volunteers running the kitchen. Free food is cheaper & easier. Just do that.
Well it's a bad one. Feeding kids is good, and free school meals have been shown to decrease childhood obesity, and while the decrease may be considered modest, it definitely solves more problems than it causes.

it's admittedly so funny to get screwed over by shitty AI code not doing what it's supposed to over and over and decide the people telling you to just stop using it are the real problem
is it the one who complained his phone didn't work because it got too hot but he submerged it in a pool *checks and finds I'm now blocked* helllll yeahhhh
It is simply fucking unacceptable that @youth4climate.bsky.social (aka the AYCC) might be forced to close for good after 20 years, and I will not be letting this happen.
If I find out a single one of you hasn't given what you are able, I will lose my fucking mind.
So the AYCC emergency appeal is on track for success. My understanding is the total shown on the site only shows donations through raisely, not including offline pledges or bank transfers.
The true figure is at least 2x, possibly 3x or more, what is shown. 💛
This is hopeful one day in, BUT...
I gotta draw more faces like this lmao
"hep to the jive" 4-panel comic, ink and colored pencil, 10x12cm panel 1: zala zuri, an iranian trans woman wearing a pink and blue retro color block windbreaker and a pink ballcap, is walking down the sidewalk when one of a trio of middle school boys across the street call over to her, "excuse me, miss?" panel 2: the first kid, who just called out, says "siiix-seeeven!" while doing the 6-7 gesture, the second one drinks a soda, and the third looks stony-faced panel 3: zala does the 6-7 gesture back panel 4: one boy erupts into laughter, another does a spit take, and the third smiles, eyes wide with surprise
crossed paths with some middle schoolers the other night

Work hard, persevere, take risks and say yes to new challenges.
When I work in the animation industry in the future, I’ll vow to build trust with customers and fans, deliver transparency, offer living wages/bonuses, and commit to going above and beyond through every aspect.
Everything from pre-production to post-production. I’ll also commit to going 100% on preservation, merchandise and physical media making sure that DVDs and Blu-Rays have appealing menus and treasure troves of bonus features that are actually worthwhile.
The 1936 Charlie Chaplin movie "Modern Times" has been more relevant for 90 years due to satire of big business, the proliferation of technology, and the plight of the unprivileged in modern society.

There's a change of plans regarding our virtual pep rally to #BlocktheMerger. Timewise, it is not feasible at the moment. The Hollywood talent have carried this movement. We'll go live at 10:00 pm Eastern on BlueSky and IG as we have some fun but stay hopeful the merger will fail.
In my perfect world, The Super Mario Galaxy Movie would have had Bowser Jr. played by Nancy Cartwright.

Okay, technically this GoFundMe was for my medical expenses and it's still up because anesthesia has yet to bill me (I live in fear of them) but if you have a spare dollar laying around and have already paid tribute to the lesbians, I won't say no to assistance

I absolutely hate that the R slur seems to be en vogue again. I simply love my intellectually disabled comrades too much to use that word ever; Unless you’re intellectually disabled yourself and can therefor reclaim it, neither should you!
