The story campaign is finally taking shape! Today was very productive. #babaisyou

If you find yourself in the place I did (which, like, the longer you stay here the higher that probability gets), and you DIDN'T back up that .csv, you're gonna at some point vent about this Situation to an actual real-life friend, in person, using your meat mouth, and they're gonna make this face 😱 and they'll be RIGHT to do so and you'll know it.

Seriously I see so many "Hey all the newbies, remember to CW eye contact and food and get off .social ASAP," but I don't see "Back your followers the hell up because beefs between admins you don't even know will silently and irrevocably sever your relationships" posted, like, Anywhere. TBH if it were up to me that'd be the first damn thing the website tells you.

Also while I'm PSAing maybe don't make threads that get so long they've gotta span THREE DANG SERVERS but I know you all are too sensible to do that so that's more of a Note To Self thing

Today on Okazu - I'm In Love With the Villainess and 'The Talk'

'Reality in Anime' Week continues with a discussion about the discussion of Rae's sexuality in I'm In Love With The Villainess.

Take that, Kadokawa.

I wish more journalists covering YouTube's crackdown on ad blockers told the blunt truth about what it really is & why blocking ads is so prevalent:

It's a simple money grab by a corporation that already has too much money (Google).

Google is going after ad blockers because enough people have figured out that ad networks are genuinely as unsafe for their own computers as LimeWire ever was.

Keep #adblocking.

> According to Scott, Church's entire response consisted of returning the postcard with the following annotation: "eeny, meeny, miny, moe".

Reminder that if you are on mastodon.art, their admin is blocking you from all of your connections and art clients on tech.lgbt in two days

It's funny: Both Bandcamp and Patreon had the easiest and most straightforwardly long-term profitable business models imaginable: Sit between indie creatives and their fans, provide some basic services for mediation (comment sections, media posts, semi-global payment) and take enough of a cut of any payments to cover the costs and then some.

But because that business model wouldn't scale forever, they are instead being gutted, because ever _increasing_ growth is the only model capital accepts

Hey folks, I'm looking for recommendations for pixel artists. In particular, I'm going to need a lot of 24x24-pixel tile art for my environments, and 24x32 (or so)-pixel sprites for my creatures (monsters, robots, humans, etc). Paid work, of course. Looking for recommendations and portfolios!
