the nefarious washington deep state is denying us "I Voted" stickers in a conspiracy to suppress the millennial vote (addicted to participation trophies &c)

Really cannot stress how tight the financial situation for us right now is. We can't afford to miss rent and if we don't pay this next power bill we will get over a $2500 charge along with a turnoff notice. I need my car to get to work and I already missed last month's payment. #mutualaidrequest

Bills piling up, between rent, power, food, insurance, a failed alternator, we're behind and I can't pay rent. We need help desperately. venmo.com/u/GayDragonG... www.paypal.me/InternetDrag... ko-fi.com/gaydragongirl #mutualaid #transcrowdfund

every time I try to work with patreon, spruce it up, make it a bit better for my users, I just come away feeling so utterly defeated by how haphazard and broken and unfinished so many of the features are. it fights me every step of the way and it always wins in the end.

it would be a net positive if every reporter who worked at outlets like the NYT or Atlantic was abruptly thrown into 2026 job hunting hell and the outlets were simply replaced with nothing. it would be beneficial to society, and also it would be incredibly cathartic for me, personally.

what could the salary of Seattle's truant former police chief have bought Sound Transit every year? this is sort of rhetorical but I'm genuinely curious, like, how many actually working escalators or elevators does his severance package--all circulating into the Chicago economy now--purchase?

you notice how even the absolute biggest websites in the world now have just... all these little weird bugs, broken features, strangely warped functionality, just all kinds of small bits of wrongness and neglect and dysfunction that I guess everyone's given up on trying to fix?

Today we would like to recognize Ken Sample aka Ken Cougar. A Black man who is credited with creating and coining the term "Fursona". While drawing one of his "Exotics" Ken drew a Cougar character that looked strikingly like himself. Attendees of this conference also wanted their own characters!

it's wild that the city built a Shame Zone because millionaires complained after buying a house near a nude beach. it's legal to be nude on part of the beach and it's legal to be nude in the rest of Seattle but it's not legal to be nude in the Shame Zone

where's the atlantic article decrying the millionaires who want seattle's historic queer nude beach shut down, suing the city, erecting big ugly walls far out into the water, recording our bodies on private security cameras without consent? what's lost when THAT casual nudity disappears, huh?

I know exactly enough technical shit online to get into spaces where people casually drop "cron job" but not enough to know not to get unbelievably horny imagining what a "cron" might be and the kind of "job" it might give
