AAAGH HES FUN TO DRAW #gracerocktiz

some rock doodles thoughts on eridian grace being a chonky stubby little thing, and how they would sleep (points at side sleeping Grace)

I was tweaking Recollection's IS paperback wrap and tried to upload the wrap to the interior section so uh. That's *post* coffee for anyone wondering how it's going over here this morning

I have Officially Survived summer semester. I have some serious grumblings about both of my classes this semester, but considering the dissertation load + Recollection publishing + both classes, I Did It tm and can start dissertation full time in fall now 🫡

Shyama has decreed that it is a very "lay upside down with paws in air while twisting self like a pretzel" day but won't let me photograph her at her most fascinatingly posed and I think this should be illegal

My house has never been on fire. I subsidize the fire department for all the people whose houses have been on fire. I do not regret this in the slightest. I don't want to sit and do nothing while other people's homes burn. And if my house DOES catch fire, I'll be damn glad the fire dept exists.

Opinion: Mamdani's idea may sound appealing, but it's NYC taxpayers who will take the hit, subsidizing discounts they may never even use.

Wait, people don't know this? Yeah. It doesn't auto-save unless you save to cloud. I hate this timeline. Share to save someone many tears from lost work.

Heather Burns@heatherburnstech.bsky.social · yesterday

The most terrifying enshittification I've discovered has been learning that Microsoft Word documents no longer auto-save if you are not saving them to one of their own proprietary cloud services. I'm slapping control-S like it's 1999.

I'm sure there are authors who do this, because some people are convinced it's everyone for themselves, but (ime) most authors enthusiastically share resources/experiences for most anything you could think to ask. We WILL NOT SHUT UP. Especially if our answer prevents people getting screwed over.

Antony Johnston@antonyjohnston.bsky.social · 2d ago

Seeing complaints online that authors 'gatekeep' information…! Absolute nonsense. There is no industry or craft in the world which is so comprehensively written about, studied, and discussed as fiction writing, and every author I know welcomes new writers who are serious about giving it a go.

I am... unreasonably upset. that you didn't include "Hey Shellhead".

Countries keep telling us to start our own businesses. It makes their unemployment figures look so much better. Then they wade in and fuck over all small businesses, time and time again, to punish us for working for ourselves instead of selling our labour to make someone else richer. Every time.

Oni@onidraws.bsky.social · yesterday

I'm seeing small businesses shutting down shipping to the EU due to the PPWR so now I don't know if I can even sell to the EU because of this and the US because of the new tariffs laws. Basically I'm screwed and I might just perish at that point.
