Proud to have voted yes today in my state of Virginia!

This doesn't even include the early voting results which were overwhelmingly Yes

I got banned from twitter in 2023 for this drawing. They called it "violent speech". It had over 40K likes and too many comments for me to read before my ban, but I still see it floating around here and there. Save a copy, and use it freely. No attribution needed. Love u

I've finally set up a proper online storefront! My Ko-Fi will continue to exist, especially for my free patterns (which will continue to update!!), but in honor of speaking at PAX this week and my webstore opening, please have 10% off- now thru Sunday!

because the purpose of an election is to give voice and representation to the constituents involved. this might be the most disingenuous analogy i've seen today, congrats.

re: chuck norris

and of course progress isn't linear. no one is capable of being nice or kind or thoughtful or forgiving or understanding or helpful at all times. we all have limits. we all struggle. it's okay to accept those times too, and instead of beating ourselves up over it, choosing to do better next time.

or are you instead allowing yourself to repeatedly focus on the negative, feeling the weight of situations beyond your control, making snap decisions in the heat of the moment you may regret, not making choices you will be happy with, not giving yourself grace, not being kind to yourself?

are you reinforcing your active choices that you make, that are positive? are you patting yourself on the back when you do make others smile? make them happy? make their day better? are you cherishing your own positive choices and reminding yourself of those times when you face difficult moments?

so if you're experiencing something that's making you feel a certain way, are you allowing yourself space to experience that feeling? are you considering how your immediate reaction will impact the situation? are you disengaging emotionally from that reaction to consider alternatives you may prefer?

like, no one is naturally positive or kind or nice or whatever. just like no one is naturally negative or mean or cruel or anything else. we are the sum of our lived experiences, but we are also what we consciously choose to embody. what we choose to share with ourselves and those around us.

if you want to be more positive, are you consciously choosing to do so in your daily interactions? showing kindness and understanding and patience to others? to yourself? are you being thoughtful before deciding on an action? are you letting your immediate emotional response control your reactions?

And if you feel like you aren't making a difference or like you're just existing, examine your daily actions. what do you want to change? do more of? do less?

got you friend 🩷

congrats reika!

Sharing this video related to recent happenings.

War only brings suffering. Don't perpetuate or fabricate hate and intolerance.
On a personal level, this means be respectful, give space, encourage life despite disagreements.

If you're struggling with depression/lack of motivation, invisible walls...
Sometimes, it's because we're still trying too hard to push through the endless struggles we face in our everyday environments. I get gaslit at home almost daily.

These constant things deserve MAJOR SOLUTIONS, not coping.

Text on Twitch's website saying "Verify Your Identity" "Submit proof of identity and location to receive your payout" "In order to receive your payout, you need to verify your identity through Persona, Twitch's identity verification service. You will have 3 tries. Please be ready to provide both of the following: 1. A picture of your government-issued identification card, such as an identity card, passport or driver's license. 2. A "selfie" (i.e., a picture of your face), taken using a webcam or phone camera. By clicking "Start Verification" below, you understand that you will be leaving Twitch and will be redirected to Persona's service, and further understand and acknowledge that Twitch may send Persona limited personal information about you to facilitate the identity verification process, in accordance with Twitch's Privacy Notice. Information you provide to Persona will not be used for any purposes other than to verify your identity and will not be stored for longer than necessary to fulfill this purpose. Need Help? See our detailed onboarding guide." "Start Verification"

Twitch is requiring new Affiliates, before their first payment, to give government photo ID and a separate photo to Persona, the same Persona that has connections to government mass surveillance programs. When I asked Twitch support for another option, they said there isn't one. #twitch #persona 1/4

and many folks who watch streamers watch multiple, the idea that the audience is a limited commodity that you need to fight and tear down other streamers to gain is only limiting one's own reach and ability to thrive

streaming like most things in life is not zerosum
