Whoever chose to do a full on yinzer accent for an interviewed citizen in the @graphicaudio.bsky.social production of “The Ultimates: Against All Enemies” in chapter 4: Thank you. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
the robin who built the nest under the deck is throwing hands at the dog who is taking too long outside under said deck. (split level ground entrance.) While I was rescuing the dog, I am fairly certain I heard a wolf howl, and a bear passed through the other day. I’m on crutches. I’m going inside.
Okay, asking again, legit question: do we have a word for hobbyist reviewers etc? Because I feel like I don’t understand fully what defines and influencer now - I understood it as almost a freelance spokesperson… 1/?
I was absolutely against the idea of making a Fango compendium, because I knew it would be impossible to do… unless we got Meredith to do it. Good thing she agreed to do it. This thing is a beast; excited for people to see the fruits of her hard work.
~*~*whispers*~*~ the book is done I did it
Understanding now why people share small milestones to ground when they are struggling with community. That being said: Finally spent money on actual shoes for my weird feet, indoor/exercise/physical therapy use only. Toe box is great! Not too long for my squat hobbit feet!
This morning I am: playing an indie game vertical slice to begin planning marketing & then doing consult/QA on visuals and graphics, watching video from one my besties wrestling matches & then hyping him (he’s a heel), doing some writing for my comics & pop culture research… 1/2

Can someone help me understand the nuance between content creators / people who do a thing but also share it online / influencers?
Heard it said that social media and ongoing pandemics ruined third spaces. Big part of it, yeah. But moreso I think a lot of people who leaned on those third spaces cannot afford in time or money to spend the leisure time to either own or go. Gig economy, multiple jobs…
Donald Trump must be removed from office for threatening war crimes and genocide. Speaker Johnson: bring the House back into session. Invoking the 25th Amendment and impeachment must be on the table, but Congress should also move on a War Powers resolution to stop Trump.
I volunteered to stage manage at our No Kings in St Cloud and ended up performing the song I wrote with Jeff Wood, who is a damn fine local musician. This was my first time playing guitar and singing in public. Getting to share this was an honor ❤️🔥
Well I just got the OK so I am doing MY OWN DANG COVER REVEAL WICKHILLS has a cover now! Illustrated by Tom Roberts and designed by Russell Trakhtenberg! Which I copied and pasted so I would not make a typo! Anyway, BEHOLD! us.macmillan.com/books/978125...
I would also like to point out that the MCU Punisher show addressed the incredibly ironic act of fascists adopting the Punisher symbol for a hate dog whistle. They kind of missed the point.
Our government is run by extremely serious and sober people.
Dead battery? Eat a potato.

New fun work issue: In a meeting where I don’t need to speak but need to pay attention and flag things and I can hear the dog trotting around probably causing chaos
Random thought: I definitely don’t mind paying for an app or game. Kind of over everything being on the micro transaction model and how I can kill games. It also feels like it unfairly tips the market with larger companies that can “ give it away for free”
Guys, you MUST watch Christopher Graybill’s Saucers, Spooks and Kooks - based @agorightly.bsky.social’s fantastic book. This is a brilliant doc, and I hope one day it also gets a physical release. Follow @sskmovie.bsky.social for more (dis)information! ;) #ufosky
Highlighting: That's not the MN State flag anymore. A major reason for the change was specifically blatant racist, anti-Indigenous imagery. It is a specific choice to use this flag. Minority extremists use the old flag as a dog whistle. The Vice President is prominently dog whistling.
Vance podium flanked by steroidal SUV’s declaring “Protect the Homeland” and the *old* Minnesota flag.
Speaking of the state as a whole - our friends and neighbors ARE being stolen from communities everywhere - is vital for two big reasons: 1. Breaking the right wing narrative that this is a "Minnesota vs Minneapolis" thing 2. A visible quilt of strength between rural and city groups
A small note: terrible things are happening in Minneapolis. But also in Saint Paul. And in the suburbs. And though most of the push is in the metro, things are happening all over the state. I've been trying to refer to the events as happening in the Twin Cities or in Minnesota.

Goblin mode is that the coworker you are cool with has a particular smart home assistant & you have to have discussions about platform integration with that assistant & everyone dances around saying the name of it then another dev on the call finally does what we’re all thinking “ALEXA PLAY MUSIC”
Starting tomorrow, the Trump administration is set to send notices to 1,000 student loan borrowers (first round) noticing them of an intent to garnish their wages for student loan debt. This is cruel and unnecessary. If you receive a notice, send it to us and we'll try to help.
Getting a (promotion?) title change for the first time at a job ever in my career (hopefully) & it is all based around my nebulous soft skills. The VP & my manager experienced this 🦄 thing ✨ that I do & decided I needed to do more of *vaguely waves hands*. I’m honestly grateful
How does one ease back into being social and unfolding after months of pulling inwards to deal with intense stress in a household?
