What's happening to healthcare in Alberta is potentially coming for all of us in Canada. Insurance companies will want this everywhere, and there doesn't seem to be much protecting Canada and its citizens at a federal level, @mark-carney.bsky.social. It's legitimately upending. #CdnPoli #CanPoli

a cute tiny rabbit running through a garden of white small flowers and rocky stepping stones with moss. text: the vibe i think i give off. a white rabbit leaning foward into the camera so it looks a little off putting with an elongated snout, it's red eyes glow in the camera flash; but it's still a rabbit so it's cute? right? text: the vibe i actually give off.

Things that help calm the nervous system, quickly:
- Box breathing (in for 4, hold for 4, out for 4, hold for 4, repeat)
- Immerse your face in cold water (activates mammalian dive reflex)
- Humming (stimulates vagus nerve)
- Exercise (anything helps, outside even better)
- Impeachment and removal
I highly recommend that everyone follow artists. If you do, your feed is filled with art every day. Real, original art. It's bonkers that you can even have this. Amazing. Undeniably cool.
And then support those artists, when you can, because that helps the delight continue.
*sigh*
If your Kickstarter video/image is AI, I won't back it.
If your book has an AI cover, I won't read it.
If you're a public supporter of AI use for creative work, I will unfollow you.
I cannot stress enough how offensive I find AI use in the arts. It is outright theft, it is lazy, it is gross.
I'M PROUD OF YOU
Four small paintings are lying flat on a wooden surface. The paintings are each in ornate frames, which are 3D-printed and hand-painted to look like antique bronze. The paintings are done in watercolour and gouache by Vormora Nox. The top left painting depicts a hillside with grass, trees, and a path on a sunny day, and shadows of the trees streak down the hillside; the sky is blue with yellow clouds. The top right painting depicts a forest path with flowers. The bottom left painting depicts legs cast in warm light with shadows of leaves on them. The bottom right painting depicts orange mushrooms nestled between tree trunks in a forest. Each painting is preserved with UV-protective varnish and a layer of wax medium.

Is it better when I post these solo, or in small themed collections? Four tiny #originalpaintings. The frames are 3d printed (model by beecat @ thingiverse) and painted in acrylic by me. The paintings are in #gouache and #watercolour and are #originalart. #artist #artistonbsky #smallartist
I think the reason AI propagandists are so flustered by the fact that no real writer wants to use their idiotic tools is that they themselves don't enjoy writing. They see it as a boring arduous chore to be avoided, while real writers actually enjoy writing and actually care about the quality of it.

A hand holds up a small painting. The painting is done in gouache and watercolour and depicts a rainy scene, as if seen from the inside of a car with droplets streaking across the windshield. Red tail lights light up the droplets. The frame is ornate and painted to look like antique silvery-bronze, but some of the lights from the painting are also painted on the frame.

I think I watched a let's play on YouTube of it, eventually. But at the time, I had never played rdr1 so I wasn't as attached to the relevant characters and I was so devastated by the ending (liked I loved it but it hurt). I played rdr2 MANY years ago now so I dunno that I could go back to do it
Rdr2 got me so bad I never even did the epilogue
if you're travelling and you are a documented citizen (esp if you're white/white-passing), you need to speak up & interrupt any racial profiling you witness. We are absolutely defeated if we allow ICE agents to harass people in the broad light of crowded airports. Don't be a good deputy citizen.
