Iris had to go to the vet recently, and she took shelter beneath @nuclearcrypt.bsky.social very sweetly

[ #oc | #art ] 400 MILES TO SEE YOU, DEAR .

"if I just work hard enough, eventually I'll make it"

No. cause if you don't make it that means you didn't work hard enough. And that isn't fair to your efforts.

there are so many factors outside of your hands. So much success is luck, and failure is not always your fault. cut yourself some slack.

“They say Britannia no longer rules the waves. This is indeed correct. For wherever it goes, the Moving Fortress rules the land, sea and the sky all at once.”

Just saying.

HOW YOU CAN HELP:
✅ Spend your money at small businesses, especially those owned by underrepresented entrepreneurs
✅ Share this message with your networks—word of mouth is powerful
✅ Stand together in financial solidarity to create real economic change

Tomorrow, February 28, let’s disrupt the status quo by spending ONLY at businesses that uplift our communities.

That means:
🚫 No gas from corporate giants
🚫 No fast food chains
🚫 No big-box retailers (Target, Walmart, Amazon, etc.)

This is how it’s done.

Tyranny requires your fear and your silence and your compliance.

Democracy requires your courage.

So gather your justice and humanity, Illinois, and do not let despair overcome us when our country needs us the most.

It took the Nazis one month, three weeks, two days, eight hours, and 40 minutes to dismantle a constitutional republic.

When the fire starts to burn, every good person better be ready to man a post with a bucket of water if you want to stop it from raging out of control.

My oath is to the Constitution of our state and of our country.

We don’t have kings in America – and I don’t intend to bend the knee to one.

I am not speaking up in service to my ambitions — but in deference to my obligations.

I'm watching alongside Illinoisans what's happening in our country right now with dread.

The authoritarian playbook is laid bare: they point to a group of people who don't look like you and tell you to blame them for your problems.

What comes next?

The root that tears apart your foundation begins as a seed of distrust, hate, and blame.

The seed that grew into a dictatorship in Europe didn’t arrive overnight.

It started with everyday Germans mad about inflation and looking for someone to blame.

Timezones how I hate you, lmao

I extended my session of Call of Cthulhu last night to avoid this! I expected a two parter, but they rushed to the end so quickly that I just couldn't stop mid fight.

That’s the name of the painting

Appears Deepseek was automatically following creative type accounts and scraping data for their AI.

I recommend blocking the account.

A four-panel comic by queeeerchameleon. Panel 1: Three chameleons on two branches, one in trans flag colors, one in gender fluid flag colors, and one in non-binary flag colors. Text - someone has a gender you don't understand? Panel 2: A chameleon in pride flag colors on a branch. Text - that's how stuff works sometimes. Panel 3: closeup of the pride flag chameleon's face. Text - I don't understand French... Panel 4: extreme closeup of the pride flag chameleon's face. Text - but the language STILL EXISTS.

This.

I really really need you guys to make a conscious rejection of generative AI tools part of your ongoing political resistance.

Don't use ChatGPT. Turn off Gemini. Don't read the AI results forced upon you at the top of Google search. Don't use AI art generators or support anyone who does. Please.

Popular meme format, grandma labeled with "bluesky's public launch was one year ago today." Younger person helping her labeled with "sure grandma let's get you to bed."

happy first birthday to Bluesky, and what a year it's been!

with every day, the need for an open network that puts people first becomes increasingly clear. we're glad to be building this with you. after all, the heart of a social network is the people.

TRENCH GHOST TROOPER
- Art by Mark Gibbons
The condition of the Trench Ghost fills them with bottomless hatred and envy for the living, and their warbands wage endless war against all other creatures, be they Faithful or their former comrades who serve the inferno.

White House pauses all federal grants, sparking confusion The Trump administration has put a hold on all federal financial grants and loans, affecting tens of billions of dollars in payments.

The US Constitution does not grant the President this unilateral authority.

In Illinois, we will stand against unlawful actions that would harm millions of working families, children, and seniors.

Depicted here is an Anointed Raider, their armor doubles as a diving suit, allowing them to infiltrate coastal defences undetected.

Also, don't quote them. Don't screengrab them. Don't dunk on them. Protect this site, protect your peace, and moreover, protect the peace of other people who don't want to see it, regardless of how awesome your sick burn is.
