I would like to remind alt text scolds that many people who do not use alt text do so because they are, themselves, disabled
it's good to use it, I use it, but assuming hostile intent or laziness from everyone who does not is, yes, ableism

Extending my vacation for the rest of the week because I got sick while traveling. Yay.
I do not need anyone to tell me how many years ago 2006 was. I need you to tell me if you know where to find time travellers, aliens, or espers

I drew this 2 years ago!
I’ve been studying “cute” ever since around this time ❣️
Mark, this is GOOD NEWS
make sure you dedicate your book to someone! then if another reader doesn't like it, you can remind them it isn't FOR them! it says right there at the beginning who it's for, silly! if the person you dedicated it to doesn't like it, you're fucked. sorry
there's zero golden sun merch so I'll do it MYSELF
we all know I have no life, so:
Pittsburgh is offically on the clock!! With being a huge sports town, calling ourselves the "City of Champions", we are excited to have the NFL Draft take place here in just a few days. So, we decided to put our own twist on it. Which anime character would you draft?
When you use AI to do your writing, you are telling your audience: “I deserve your attention, but you do not deserve my effort.”
I spent today at the hospital and didn’t see a single respirator (other than my own).
There were a few people wearing surgical masks.
Signs saying it was a “mask friendly” environment.
No free masks.
No mask mandates.
Tons of coughing & sickness.
Masks belong in healthcare. Period.
Therapy is great. I love therapy. However, no amount of therapy will ever erase the chronic stress caused by not having your needs met. Food insecurity, homelessness, poverty, chronic debts, and other life stressors from wealth inequality can’t be erased by even the best therapists and medications
I feel like I always need to call kamiina botan by her full name. she's like lesbian charlie brown
"the weed pen that earns crypto also gambles for you" this device makes a large majority of men obsolete
Laughing at the concept of the weed pen having dailies. It's incredible. I'm speechless
A block of Chinese text in the middle of which is the English word “castration” it says that Sima Qian, the famous historian, broke out in trauma sweats every time he remembered that he had offended the emperor and been castrated, a word my autocorrect is really fighting against
when an English word is embedded in Chinese text, naturally my eyes are drawn right to it and decode it before I comprehend any of the surrounding context, and sorry Sima Qian but I laughed
JRR Tolkien wrote The Lord of the Rings as a side project while brainstorming a list of cool names for defense contractors
There's a whole thing in AI about 'work avoidance'. It'll set up for a big reveal, but have nothing to reveal. Characters will be cagey because exposition is less neutral then a "you'll see". I've said it before, but you get JJ Abrams writing. Hollow mysteries and twists with no real backbone.
Heyyy, I got quoted in the write-up of results from an @ellipsus.com survey about what creative workers think of genAI.
Spoiler alert: Everyone hates it and places tremendous value on human creativity and in preserving spaces in which that creativity can flourish and be celebrated.
Literally translating the way the Japanese language uses quotation brackets makes everything sound sarcastic in English.
Those are rookie numbers, we gotta bump up those numbers.
Chiitan thinks of transgender people as my mom and dad
cherish my mom and dad for the rest of my life
I love you all
I will continue to spread the message about transgender people until the day I disappear
I hope that all good-hearted transgender people can live their lives with pride and happiness
Not a hot take but this is a friendly reminder:
you don't need to monetize your hobbies. You need activities that bring you joy, not money. Yes, this also includes cosplay
