I used to think “I got spanked and I turned out okay”. The truth is I found other outlets and ways to deal with my trauma. I learned to do better. I’ve done a lot of therapy. Choosing not to repeat the mistakes and actions of the people who raised me is a hell of a lot of work.
I watched my brother casually smack one of his kids for acting up during a video chat, and that really made it sink in for me how the violence we experienced as children got passed down. James Dobson told a generation to beat their kids to raise them right. Our parents bought into it.
SI techbros) We’ve invented a new technology!
You mean this technology that’s already existed for decades?
“No, ours is different because it’s both shittier and it makes us money instead of helping people!”
They keep doing this and then acting surprised when no one wants their bullshit.
AI tools? Installing Spyware? Whoever could have expected this!

Round white ceramic baking dish containing Parmesan topped chickpea flour flat bread baked to light golden brown and cut into eight pieces
Baking stuff today because it got cold again and I wanted an excuse to run the oven. Breakfast casserole to use up leftovers, and the much more photogenic Parmesan besan (chickpea flour) flat bread.
GO FILL THIS OUT.
Now.
Right now.
Mine does fantastic talks and craft demos and has guest speakers and and… libraries are great 🩷
And like… I know there are layers here. Hard to do nuance in short form. Depression kills motivation, parents enable this shit, rents ARE too high, tuition IS too expensive, etc. But plenty of folks have found ways to make it work despite that.
I can understand not wanting to go to college _now_ given how much tuition costs have skyrocketed, but you gotta do SOMETHING. A degree doesn’t guarantee a high paying job, either, but it tells employers you can commit and finish things. Yeah, the economy sucks, but being a failson ain’t fixing shit

The "Days of Nature" event got me thinking: What would a Sky Kid's mermaid tail look like? Transforming his cape!
I based the eye color on the Siren Nebula/Beta Fish (ESO 217-25)

Sitting here crying while after getting WhatsApped the photo on the right, so let me tell you a little story about how we got here from the photo on the left and why repatriation research matters!
There has to be space for an ambulance to work in an emergency, or for them to move furniture, etc. Boundaries help make good neighbors, but so does not being an asshole.
Mom told him to go pay for his own survey if he had doubts (he didn’t). The fences were built deliberately inside our property line to prevent this sort of thing. Discovered we owned right up to the other neighbor’s front steps, but you always want to leave enough room for folks to get in and out.
Mom had our property surveyed before we did any fence improvements, because there were two other homes that shared the same driveway. The guy out back was big mad to lose the space where he’d been parking his boat. Tried to claim we bribed the surveyor to give us more land.
Ooo, my library has it! Adding to hold list, because someone’s got the audiobook checked out already. 🩷
"I refuse to use generative AI" is not censorship. It's not fascism. It's not restricting you in ANY WAY. It's not banning you from using it.
If your tool is so shitty that unless I also use it, you're being negatively impacted, your tool is religion.
My cat is definitely not a MC and he still stomped me awake this morning. I love all cats everywhere, but I’m content with my old man baby. 🤣
This is more broadly generalizable: If you don't do the research yourself, you have no idea if AI is making stuff up. And if you do the research yourself, then AI isn't saving you much labor, if any.
It’s an interesting series. Avoid its fandom, though. People got incredibly possessive and toxic about the characters to the point of harassing the show runners when new episodes don’t match their fanfic.

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

Same thing happened when the Crunchyroll and Funimation apps were merged. People who had bought media via the Funi app that they were supposed to own forever got a shrug, because the whole app was going away.
Plus kegsbreath wants to force women out of service. He hasn’t been quiet about it.
be kind to yourself
That’s always been the plan. That’s why they killed Roe vs Wade. Why they’re targeting medication abortion, too. Removing reproductive freedom makes it easier to force women into subordinate roles. The tradwife movement is part of selling it, making it look pretty and appealing.
a photo of a small landscape I painted with gouache (a curved path amongst flowers and tall grass leading between taller shrubs towards distant mountains. Above, the sky is blue and white with thick, soft clouds). Above the image is a palette dirty with drying paints; a palette knife and a paintbrush are propped against it.
my new 12-pack of gouache test ride! 💐🥺

I like bluesky because it feels so much like tumblr
1. barely works
2. userbase is annoying (affectionate)(not that affectionate)
3. being queer on here feels like I’m actively participating in ruining some tech company’s investment
look i know objectively not every problem can be traced to vibecoding, but i also know it annoys the most insufferable people on earth to pretend otherwise, so i'm willing to take the low road here, i'm not the bigger man, i'm a duck in a wig
