I’m seriously so happy I’m back in my music production groove. I was so scared I had lost my touch, but I reminded myself of who I was, and found it. I’m so excited to make stuff, learn, maybe even perform. EDM has been challenging for me to learn how to make, but I’m getting it now. 💙💙💙

Furry has always been a fandom made up of a bunch of people with various interests. It's a melting pot of various subcultures because of a shared interest. While there's always a few rotten apples in any fandom, that doesn't mean you can vilify the parts of it you personally dislike.

Mamdani announces $15M for trans healthcare, includes launching a call/text resource support line. Notes city Law Dept filed an amicus brief against subpoenas for medical records. Hospitals suspended care to trans youth following a Trump EO. This seems to try working around that, doesn’t mention it

NEW YORK - Today, Mayor Zohran Kwame Mamdani announced three major new initiatives to safeguard and expand access to gender-affirming care for youth and adults across New York City. The initiatives represent a proactive $15 million investment at a time of growing uncertainty and escalating attacks from the federal government.
To safeguard access to gender-affirming care, Mayor Mamdani's administration will:
• Establish a direct care access fund for providers of youth gender-affirming care to help ensure that New Yorkers can continue to access medically necessary care.
• Launch a call and text line connecting New Yorkers with care, services, information, resources and support related to gender-affirming care.
• Fund research to identify gaps in health care access and outcomes for transgender and gender non-conforming New Yorkers. As the federal government retreats from supporting this critical research, New York City will invest in better understanding and meeting the needs of LGBTQ+ community.
Earlier this month, the City's Law Department submitted an amicus brief supporting a legal challenge brought on behalf of transgender youth and young adults opposing federal grand jury subpoenas seeking the medical records of patients who have received gender-affirming care. On Wednesday, a federal judge granted the injunction, blocking the U.S. Department of Justice from using subpoenas to access sensitive medical records of transgender patients.
Mayor Mamdani has directed the Law Department to be ready to respond, including potentially litigate, threats to end gender-affirming care for youth and adults from the federal government.

I had a conversation with some friends (who are game devs primarily), and we were discussing AI, and how stupid it is to use it to create an entire application (idc what it is) in minutes, when that was never the point of what coding or development was supposed to do.

FWA was a fucking blast, and I have too many pictures to fit here. I had a magnificent time, and I hope I’m able to return next year.

gonna add onto this take by adding music into this my friend @schwank.getlit.me completely changed my view on music discourse. I think saying music is not for me, or not my style is way more descriptive than saying it is good or bad. It allows people to know more about you and your preferences.

far from the first person to say this but it's truly remarkable how much more productive and clear any opinion on game design is if you ban yourself from saying "good" or "bad"
