I draw stylized animals and creatures. I also go by Furrama on some sites. Anti AI gen with stolen data. Don't use my work without permission.

I think I should start sketching again, for my health.
And if things ever stabilize for my family I think I'd like to start learning to sculpt.

They ran the health scare thing last time and it along with butter emails worked. Later some asked if the press learned anything from 2016 and they shrugged and seemed to hope we'd memory hole the whole thing. So they could do it again and call it journalism.

The press around this (for the most part) and/or their bosses want one outcome and they don't seem to care about what will happen to the rest of us if they get it. I wish more people would notice how meditated all of their behavior has been.

I remember this. I never forgot. I'm still so angry at the media for just shrugging it off, never drawing any lines between data points, and I've seen them continue to pretend that they're serious news people while they peddle misleading stories and launder outright lies on Rs behalf.

Someone please employ my partner in the next couple of weeks so I can draw again and not have to move in with the in-laws.

I'm a little annoyed at past me for packing away my art supplies a couple of months ago. I thought we were moving soon but found a couple spare months tucked behind the couch.
I don't want to unpack because we're probably still going to have to leave next month but I miss the inks.

I'm sorry I just realized that I forgot a word. Bluesky on Firefox mobile. I can only get rid of tabs at the top and change most settings on a laptop/desktop. Firefox mobile is fine.

Happy 37 and 1/2 birthday to me! π
Enjoyed my traditional half birthday breakfast of freshly baked pound cake with home grown strawberries, whipped cream, and blueberries.
Looking forward to the traditional birthday ribs and corn and watermelon with lemonade later.

It's up to me and my willpower alone to stop hitting the discover tab where there's little art and an avalanche of bad political takes.
Haha I'm doomed.

I wish there was a way on Firefox mobile to remove tabs/customize my experience. I don't understand why the smaller internet isn't allowed to have all of the buttons.

Mmmm no, Light was a mass murderer who used justice as an excuse. He killed people who threatened him, innocent people, he used people who died for him, he had god delusions, and then he died screaming having been told that everything he did was pointless. Not exactly a roll model that one.

BUT I don't really think I or anyone else can do anything about that so overwhelming numbers to shame them is all we can reasonably do. Hope the system limps along just a little bit longer.

I actually do think we have the numbers in all of the right places to win, despite it all.
I'm more worried that certain states who have signaled that they'll pick electors no matter how their people vote will actually do that. And those states will throw the election and it will be legal enough.

I hope so. I would have even said so myself before last week but certain types of people have been worrying me, and the stakes have heightened. I guess it's time to tune it all out. I'll do what I can now and ache later if it comes to it.

There's an argument for anything now, but he won't do it. I wish I found that admirable but I'm scared of what's going to happen in November with the way some people who should know better have been talking. It's like everyone is sleepwalking towards a cliff.

Good luck everyone. I hope we all make it to the end of Biden's second term and have restructured the courts and have started to mend the trashed systems. I hope we get everything we need to reverse today's judgement. And may it take years not decades!
OK go to sleep, we'll do what we can tomorrow.

It's all up to us now. Even if we fail, even if it's futile, even if it's imperfect and not enough, we still have to try.
If the president is going to drop this at our feet and shrug, fine. If that's what we're stuck with.
I wish Democrats would fight for us in full force. We'll have to make do.

Grab your friends and the needy at hand and hang on tight. Encourage each other, talk, and keep your ears to the ground. Listen to your gut alongside the news, with a grain of salt always. And if the worst happens take care of your people.

Don't argue with people who think voting is pointless, or that society should burn. They're either bad actors or not reachable right now. They're either too depressed or bought the lie. Focus on people who want actionable things to do. Mute and block the others online.

Beware of what anyone with big W Wealth has to say. They're either trying to sway you to their benefit or they're so insulted from reality that they're not worth listening to. Listen to people with necks on the line with a track record of being right.

Avoid legacy news media right now, especially the larger newspapers and networks that are owned by wealthy right wingers. Unfortunately that's most of them.
Polling has been broken for a couple of elections. Nothing is written. Don't get complacent.

I've noticed that people who talk like this tend to be looking for a fight. They're either dealing poorly and acting up or they're bad actors. Either way if you tell them the unglamorous truth it's just pearls before swine. Save your energy if you're feeling low.

Would be nice if slightly older man moved to expand the courts today. Do something. Anything to fight this now just in case it's the last chance. Even if it's a nonstarter in the Senate or something. Just please do something!

If slightly older man loses because you didn't vote for him for any reason (other than vote suppression or ineligibility) you will doom the weakest and neediest of us and when we're both deported to the camps for not being sufficiently Trumpy you will get an I Told You So and a bite to your neck.
