Societies should be judged based on how they treat their most vulnerable. Baldur's Gate may deserve harsh judgement from what I've seen so far.

#Baldur's Gate 3 #BG3 #Halsin #Halsin BG3 #bg3edit #halsinedit #videogameedit #otheredits #my stuff #one of my favourite halsin lines is when he goes on these rants and then is just like 'member when i said i was a bad leader?#lmao never mind comparatively i'm actually fine the entire structure of leadership here is fucked #(kidding and not - he's not wrong)#my other favourite is when he calls the pc out for apathy if a certain dialogue choice is made #and then he put his money where his mouth was and helped as many refugees and children as he could the end

50% of all revenue for my store, starting now, will be donated to CareforGaza and the PCRF.

[ PURCHASE MY ANTHOLOGIES HERE ]

hi there! i'm lindi. you may have seen some of my comics floating around in the past year or so.

if you’ve ever liked my stories and wanted to purchase a copy of one of my anthologies, I invite you to do so now. This policy will be in place indefinitely, and the list of charities/organisations may be subject to change depending on their effectiveness. Currently, the focus is on providing aid and food to the innocent Palestinians in Gaza, but in the future I hope to increase the scope to tangibly support the queer community and help fund independent artists in Australia.

below, I'll list a few resources for people who'd like to directly donate at the source:

credible organisations that are doing work on the ground in Palestine:

Care for Gaza:non-profit charity that distributes money, food and other resources directly to families in Gaza.They maintain a regular presence on Twitter and Instagram. You can donate to them via Paypal here.

PCRF / Palestine Children's Relief Fund: non-profit organisation that distributes essential food and resources to families in Gaza. Most recently, they delivered 30 tons of vital medicine, and 82,000 pounds of flour.

Medical Aid For Palestinians: deploys medical teams to treat Palestinians suffering under Israel's malicious bombardments.

help people leave palestine (donate what you can)

Save Sanaa and her Family (Gofundme)

Save Amjad Saher and his family (Gofundme)

Help a family of 13 escape Gaza (Gofundme)

Help a Palestinian children's book illustrator save her family of 12 (Gofundme)

#disclaimer: I do want to say that I'm also regularly donating a significant portion of my own personal funds and have been for a while #however I think these additional donations will make all the difference.#just donating alone isnt gonna stop the genocide happening in gaza but im trying to put my money where my mouth is #thank you all in advance for your generosity #i appreciate the audience ive cultivated here immensely #and if nothing else i hope this weeds out the trash that mightve lingered here. somehow.#dont dare try separate the art from the artist with me.#everything ive ever made and will ever make stands with palestine from now until it sees its liberation #free palestine #palestine

Is there even a site left to post art? Seriously here i really like posting my artwork and creating a safe community why this app decides to follow down the rabbit hole of A! and ruin everything?

I want to be more hopeful that it won't last and get sued those who illegally use our pieces. :/

i think anything being posted publicly (bar perhaps on very niche places no one else will find u either) is probably getting scraped, which is supported by the kind of weak 'We Will Try To Stop Unauthorized Data Trawlers' lines we get fed - even sites that have explicit anti-AI stances like Pillowfort can't promise that ur images are fully protected

i'd assume paywalled sites like patreon/subscribestar offer a smidge of protection just bc the ai people don't want income to flow anywhere else than their own pockets? as for lawsuits, ye, i hope they tread on the toes of some other shitty corporation with an interest in protecting their intellectual property since they have the $ to throw at this problem

when all the platforms we post to are owned by corporations that are only interested in shortsighted financial gain/dont need to respect their userbase, this type of behaviour is to be expected... as i mentioned previously though, i have hope that the bubble will burst like it did w/ nfts, that people will realize theyre swallowing shit and it turns out not to be as profitable as the profiteers hoped (at which point theyll turn to the next exploitative grift)

#cleo talks #margaretkart #the whole ai debacle unfortunately contributes to a general downward arc in quality of media #but tbh.. im fortunate to not have to rely on financially motivated corporations for my livelihood #(private clients are often more generous than say wotc lol)#so im sad about the state of the world but at least theres that #look to individuals and smaller communities #and Begging ppl to put their money where their mouth is #just bc boring ass Marvel is using AI doesnt mean there isn't still incredible creative work to find elsewhere

This might be a goofy thing to send as an ask, but I just wanted to say thank you for sharing that post about fiction not being real harm, and reminding people that they have autonomy to curate their own experience! I've stepped away from creating even slightly edgy fan works bc of fear of being ostracized or subject to bullying, but it's really nice to see the tides beginning to change. I think people are coming around to realize that being constantly paranoid and subject to shifting moral goalposts isn't a healthy or sustainable way to engage in fandom.

Listen. I'm Too Old For This Shit. "Don't like don't read" was the warning on ff.net and LiveJournal and everyone was pretty chill with that. I was into the Hannibal fandom for a long while and was absolutely gobsmacked by the "pro shipper/ anti shipper" stuff that came cascading down out of that. And moralizing fiction is a bizarre thing to do.

It falls under the same category as kink shaming- fantasies are safe, and more importantly, NOT REAL. and we all know that. Which is why it becomes safe. Being into CNC doesn't mean you want to experience that in real life. It's okay to enjoy it in that form, though, and you shouldn't have people passing judgement on you for what you like in that regard.

I see it a lot with anyone who ships Terzo/Copia. A lot of folks have gotten ridiculous backlash for creating works around that, and it's incredibly disappointing for me to see. And it frustrates me that I have gross stuff I want to write and haven't because I'm worried about being held responsible for something someone doesn't enjoy, because no matter how well you tag it, you'll INEVITABLY get messages from people who either still read to criticize, or don't read but still get upset you wrote it.

As a guy in their 30's who has been around fandom since the tender age of 12, let me shout from the rooftops this important, dearly held belief: Not every piece of media is for you, or going to be your thing- and that's okay. It doesn't have to be. And life is too fuckin short to get upset about it, you gotta believe me.

#st-speaks #time to put my money where my mouth is i guess lmao

i think when it comes to the F+C finale it's important to see where the writers were coming from. And it's easy to do that, the lesson/moral they gave simon is fairly clear: Simon needs to appreciate his life because Betty sacrificed so much to get him here. alright, cool, that's good on paper.

I do Also think that the execution was poor.

up until this point, the crown has represented/could be viewed as many things. Alzheimer's, substance abuse, and anything else people have called it. In this series, a newer interpretation has arose: Suicide. And I'm certain the writers were aware of this. Depression and suicidal ideation are such strong themes in this series that they can't NOT be purposeful.

So their attempt at teaching Simon to appreciate Betty's sacrifice can ALSO be read as: Simon, the suicidal, on the verge of a relapse-man, gets put into a body of a child, (and that is very powerful imagery that does not help, actually) and is told nearly expressly that he fucked up in his relationship with the love of his life. He is told he should have sacrificed more for betty. And he says to himself: "Maybe i wouldn't have even found the crown". Basically it's simon pinning the blame on himself for his 1000 year curse on his mistakes with Betty. Which of course can be read as Simon's self loathing but the show does nothing to refute his statement, which i also have issue with. Simon putting on the crown was stated to be a Mistake. it was an accident. No matter what, the crown cursing him Was Not His Fault. Ever. It's not Betty's fault, it's not Simon's, it. was. a. Mistake.

regardless on if they should or should not have introduced these new flaws into simon's character, having simon learn his mistakes like This feels. icky. to me.

#adventure time #simon petrikov #at spoilers #at fionna and cake #I've been thinking about what I would do to change this #because i feel the need to put my money where my mouth is #i cant just say “this needs to be written better lol bye”#i need to prove that alternate ideas WOULD work #and right now my script has actually deleted casper and nova entirely #because i don't know how to keep them #casper and nova were really fun ideas #and the execution was fun too #but i cant seem to make the whole “simon possessed shermy and plays casper and nova” plot point work with my rewrite :(#will accept any suggestions if anyone's got anything!#another thing about the lesson simon learned #is that it -in universe- could have backfired so badly #simon could have Doubled Down #simon was already so depressed and prepared to throw his life away for someone else #and then he gets confirmation that “Actually. You Didn't Sacrifice Enough.”#Simon lets betty go in the bus scene #but what if he just... failed to learn the lesson she was trying to show him?#what if he goes “you're right betty. I should have sacrificed more for you like how you did for me.”#“i can't sacrifice anything for you now. i'm sorry. but for fionna and cake's world... i still have that chance.”#sorry im in fucked up thoughts land #at thoughts

Im...happy?? Even temporarily???

Woke up and laid in bed longer than I should have, but less than I usually do, and while filled with dread, it's LESS dread than usual

Walked to mass at new church, completely bland generic sermon & bland generic music, which is perfect, nobody knows me or is trying to rope me into things or expects things from me, I don't have to pretend I don't absolutely loathe so much of catholic parish culture, I can just, go in, go out, be a nameless face in the pew which is Safe and Uncontroversial. There was even the coolest looking older butch in the pew with me. Docs and leather jacket and all.

Stopped and read on a cafe patio with a coffee and pastry. The sun was out. Nobody was constantly texting me asking where I was. It was me and my iced coffee and silly vampire book.

Checked out the main shopping area, saw all the local grocers and bakeries and small local businesses. I'm not in a suburban box store desert anymore. I may pay slightly more at small businesses but if I want the luxury of this kind of area that's a cost I'm willing (and newly able) to pay. Plus living here means I don't have to own a car and am saving so much on that front that it still works out in my favour financially

Stopped by a little florist, tiny hole on the wall, met the nicest man and his nephew and got tons of plant advice based on my apartment layout and some recommendations for what should be unkillable given my brown thumb. Will absolutely be going back for more plants once I'm fully set up + some for my office

Like. This was unthinkable a year ago. I desperately need to keep my job. So I can keep this. I forgot how good it was to live in an area like this, not endless detached housing sprawl. I can walk everywhere. I lived in an arealike this in uni but my budget was nonexistent (grad school funding woooo). Now that I have a (very small admittedly) degree of financial flexibility??? Im allowed to sit on a patio with a 5$ coffee once a week??? I can pop into little florists and grocers and bakeries if I want?? Nobody is going to judge me for "wasting" money by not buying the absolutely dogshit quality cheapest thing possible??? Or not reporting on my location at all times? I owe no accounting of my every trip out the house?

#the duality of fran #YALL IM. i might weep a bit #anyway #i got an ivy and a zebra pothos at this guys recommendation #he was SO nice and helpful man i could've stayed in his shop all day #WHODVE THOUGHT. COMMUNITIES VS SOULLESS BIG BOX STORES #like putting my money where my mouth is viz community based living and small businesses #also i dont have to online shop constantly #i can GET THINGS NEARBY #if i never have to go to walmart again. God bless #and i can volunteer. theres a food bank nearish by! i can hop on the subway and hit up any number of places to volunteer at #i can donate my knitting! i can be good #my mother is like oh no theres a homeless person #yeah its a city and not a suburb and yhe govt is failing our residents #HENCE WE NEED TO DO SMTHN ABT IT #but i CAN now that im local. not spending 3+hrs a day commuting

Hey sorry to ask, but am I tripping or is some of your Redbubble stuff removed?

(Also can I be wheat anon? )

i did private my tma stuff on redbubble! i dont use twitter or many other social media so i was unaware that they are apparently vehemently against people selling fanart for tma, i was just naively thinking well if they had an issue with an art piece theyd ask me to take it down (& i 100% would, of course) but if its something theyr outspoken about then I cant in good conscience continue selling it, even if it was my main seller on there 😔

(you absolutely can🌾)

#once again being a grandpa thats bad at social media has come to bite me in the ass 😭😭#i saw many other people listing tma art for sale & just naively assumed that meant it wasnt something they really cared abt ya know?#talked with several people lately abt the ethics of selling fanart & this came up #in regards to mech fanart #i will leave it up for now since coming from a bandmember we have a tacit ‘we just look the other way’ sort of approval #but knowing that i was going against something they care about so strongly didnt sit right so 😔#RIP to my paycheck but you gotta put ur money where your mouth is #selling fanart is always such a grey area it’s complicated to navigate #asks #sorry if i articulated this poorly

Does anyone know any good pro-life charities to donate to? Places where I’d know the money was going directly to help mothers and children?

#I want to be putting my money where my mouth is a little but it’s hard to know what charities are making a difference #pro life
