This happened to me, too. I also used to be able to drop in as an alternate when someone else dropped out, and there haven't been any of those calls, either. Which sucks because I no longer have to do things like writing from a shelter with iffy internet.

I just want some dems to come out and say with conviction that racism is bad and transphobia is bad and ableism is bad and homophobia is bad and fuck, it seems like almost none are doing that.

Perfect illustration of what learning history is like:

HUMAN ARTISTS, use only one piece to convince people to follow you (Also, you know you want to follow me on my birthday)

HUMAN ARTISTS, use only one piece to convince people to follow you

(using multiple references is also just good practice so you don't inadvertently just recreate an image)

for as long as i've been alive, republicans have ran the same playbook: a few weeks before voting begins, they roll out completely fabricated smear campaigns. these things are always coordinated, so the talking points take over the news. the party is never electorally punished for their dishonesty.

this is presumably for people who already have Prime for another reason, not trying to convince people to get PRime just for this.

thanks for pointing this out! I have to have prime because it's the only way to get the specific food my service dog needs for a reasonable price (even 'local' bulk stores are 20+ min away and have $10 shipping + the membership fee). I don't really use twitch but was able to help a friend.

there's also just having a large variety of references you reference for specific parts without having to do the bashing step. I often have 10+ references for any given piece, even just a character portrait.

Use reference. I’m serious. I get it that somehow you or someone convinced you that using reference is “cheating.” It’s not. You are just hindering yourself.

Pro tip: you don’t have to comm artists to boost and support them. People claim they can’t support artists and creators because they are financially strapped, but they can still boost posts, comment, like, and in general just be supportive! It’s completely free outside of an internet connection ;)

Hi, I’m a sighted alt text user! Here are some reasons I use it: - Slow Internet on an airplane - I’m over 40, I have no idea who that celebrity is - Bluesky broke images again - My vision sucks and that text is too small to read otherwise - Conveys further context and authorial intent

Hound knight.

This is poorly framed reporting. The prison she was sent to has 'rehabilitation' in the name. She's still receiving medical care there, apparently, but don't make it sound like she is actually in a normal medical step-down/rehab center. It is a prison with a euphemistic and incorrect name.

this is common misreporting and big L for WaPo. The prison is called a 'rehabilitation center' in its name, and is the same one she had been imprisoned in before.
