AI in a nutshell.
Who needs punching? I can think of a few off the top of my head. I may need to put together a spreadsheet. Upon reflection, it's quite a long list. >__>
The person I was attempting to recall is Linda Bergkvist / Enayla.
Trying to recall the name of an illustrator from 10-15 years ago. She did a lot of fae portraits and figures, had the most amazing skin tones - pale, reds, greens. For the life of me, I can not recall her name to do an image search. I think she was Danish? Swedish? I think?
I am *SO* sick and tired of Virtue Signaling from people while they turn on their allies just earn social media points.
No, I'm not *your* ally - because you don't deserve allies - you turn on them.
And, fuck you - you personally. Up until *this* post I *was* your ally - genuinely - but you're too interested in virtue signaling and burning bridges to be effective. We need all the help we can get - and you ARE NOT it
The enemy of my enemy is my ally. I can have a philosophical discussion on why I think their other views are shit after we've taken care of the greater threat. AntiR's approach is chaos guaranteed to lose us the fight. We need closed lines, not infighting.
See here's the thing; if I'm fighting for something I absolutely DO NOT want someone like you on my side - because at the first perceived provocation, you'd turn on me, giving our enemies the win. I'm more concerned about making the world a better place than stabbing my allies in the back.
Be careful attacking people who help you, it never goes well.
Should she have done more previously? Absolutely. But attacking her (or anyone) for their previous lack of action in the current climate only sows division when we need unity; which the TruMusk admin will - and have- taken advantage of.
The Oatmeal is always gold.
This morning's sketch. Not sure if it's a vibe for the day or not. It's probably a vibe for the day.
This was a dragon - and it was frightening.
Don't look at the news
Don't look at the news

Oh, for fuck's sake
and NATA is fucked as well - which means Europe is going to be on it's own for the first time since WWII.
I don't think people truly understand how literally earth shaking the ramifications of this are.
We are entering a very, very dark time in our history.
Yeah. I think it's deeper than that, tho. It's the whole Project 2025 thing, and Russia, as well as the he's just popular. He wrecked Kamala worse than Hillary, which is just un-fucking-belieabable. We have lost EVERYTHING - the House, the Senate, and the Presidency. Ukraine is fucked, Gaza is fucke
I hate this timeline.
I keep running scenarios in my head, trying to figure out where the calculus went wrong. I don't understand. The *only* thing I can figure is that there were last minute alarm bells going off about massive Russian interference, but that doesn't account for all of it. I'm sick.
So, is Bluesky where to be? Is everyone bailing twitter? What is happening?
