crows call me breadlady

as might seem curious but in such a way that your learned cynicism deprives you of surprise, the rich are remarkably inept at managing wealth:

> The tragedy of digital media isn’t that it’s run by ruthless, profiteering guys in ill-fitting suits; it’s that the people posing as the experts know less about how to make money than their employees, to whom they won’t listen.

why is it that so many workplaces work the very same way?

the only kind of music I actively dislike is anything shared loudly, *especially* when no one asked for it, in public places such as at intersections and in front of busy stores, where leaving isn't possible or the music makes leaving inconvenient

The existence of a generic "legal name" implies the existence of a more powerful "illegal name".

the reckoning is now: sadly, I must open and advertise my commissions to pay for basic life expenses 

prices start at $5 USD, and I can do other styles too, including pixel & sprite art! please share, I had $200 stolen from me and I'm struggling to rebuild it while satisfying basic needs :blobsob:

rainforest is what's originally there. jungle is what grows back after being cut down. they're not the same, and in some cases for some places, it'll never be the same ever again. please be kind to rainforests: we only get one chance before we lose them and their rich, fragile ecosystems.

@maple issues like these are why I get the feeling that something is fundamentally Wrong about how gdq is structured. admittedly I've never been a fan of the event but the only things I hear about it are bad things

transphobia 

oh boy do I sure *fucking* love it when I'm thinking of commissioning someone and then they say The Worst Weeb Word, then when they're calmly told that it's not nice to use that word to describe anything gender non-conforming, they pull the whole "weh but it's a MEME, this has nothing to do with calling real gnc people or crossdressers dishonest predators because I wasn't calling a REAL PERSON that" bullshit

autism ableism 

Despite it being ever present, it never fails to surprise me how pervasive ableism towards autistic people is. And how often I've seen it used as an excuse to perform "justified harassment" of a person.

People need to chill and listen more and give people chances to explain themselves. I know we're all tired and paranoid, but we need to give each other space to not "know the rules" and such.

I've moved

If you've never had the chance to watch Moomin before, the original animated series is now available on YouTube! 👀 some countries are blocked, though. It feels so weird to hear this in English, who are they

Pops has moved instances!!!

Gardening and DIY are important not just because it gives people more independence and saves them money, but because it de-alienates them from their labor. There are few types of propaganda more potent than excitedly checking your peppers several times a day and thinking to yourself, "what if all work was this fulfilling"
