So ‘Liberty’ is their code for ‘Being Christian’, and their nonsense makes WAAAAAY more sense now.

was the #1 choice for people in 14 different countries?!! Bullshit, that has to be manufactured by troll armies & VPNs because there was nothing special about that song or performance.

My motivation to get my #website back to sharing to #Mastodon & syncing replies back is due to #Eurovision. I'm finally catching up with this year's entries (overall mildly disappointing) and need to discuss them.

@jwildeboer I just have to figure out how to pull comments back to my site and I’m good to go!

Hey #MastoArt community: I need a #recommendation for a pocket sized mechanical pencil. And by that I mean one that I stick into my back pocket vertically without it sticking out too much, if it all.

I have a regular-sized mechanical pencil I love, a trusty old Zebra, but it gets stuck on things in my back pocket - chairs, etc.

Lead size is not important, I'll take what I can get as long as the #pencil fits in a pants pocket.

A fun listen, it's always cool to hear demos and how a song evolve from idea to its final form.

My favorite line so far from the new #GreenDay album is

'Bankrupt the planet for assholes in space.'

Short and to the damn fucking point.

Quick and easy -- and cheap -- fake IDs are a thing now. This is not a good thing. https://www.404media.co/email/7ba8cca7-96d2-487d-a1e3-5cc0de98fc4e/?ref=daily-stories-newsletter

@dangillmor I guess the traveling college fake id entrepreneurs are out of business. Back in the day they came with a giant fake ID background to stand in front of.

Typical moment:

I just finished a glass of water.

I had my meds in my hand when I started drinking.

I have no recollection of swallowing the meds.

Circumstantial evidence strongly implies that I had my meds 🤷🏽‍♂️

Hey #adhd & #actuallyautistic fam: I need #recommendations on noise-reducing #earplugs.

One of my kids complained about volume at a social gathering and I’d like to get them some earplugs to help make situations like that work better for them.

Bonus if the #earplug fidelity works well for concerts as they just hit the ‘omg live music is amazing’ phase.

Thank you 🙏🏽

In case you ever had an inkling of a germ of a doubt...🤬

Via Joyce Vance:

In the Mar-a-Lago case, Judge has just refused to enforce a routine deadline & it's entirely clear she has no intention of letting this case go to trial before the election or possibly ever.

@GottaLaff Dems were asleep at the wheel for decades while the GOP plugged away. And now we’re walking a tight rope with no way to fight all the compromised judges & politicians. This is definitely the year to get passports.

A question for / folks:

Is there a benefit to using a type service if you have the skills to make a links page yourself?

I get the ease of use part, and having easy access analytics. But if I don’t need those, are there other benefits I’m missing?

Maybe a fellow #artist knows something: is there any organization that supplies a website badge to show the site doesn’t support ‘AI’ generated art?

I can of course make my own ‘NO AI ART’ graphic but I’m wondering if there’s something already in use, kinda like the Creative Commons badges for licensing (but just an anti-AI art statement).

I’m a total sucker for this #StrangerThings ice cream. It looks like black goo but tastes like vanilla.

The idea of drawing a comic book has never appealed to me much because one reads comics so quickly—- the time it takes to produce the art is 100s of times the time it takes to consume. But This is a rather shallow and vain way to look at it I’ve realized. Thinking about the way I keep thinking back on the comics I’ve read- over and over. The way the images and the few words stay with you is warming me up to the idea. 1/

ArpComics,

@futurebird It is time consuming, & not great if you have perfectionist tendencies like me. But it goes more smoothly if

  1. Make steady daily progress. 15 min/day > 105 min on weekends. It’s much harder to get in the flow when you have to figure out where you are every time. Plus the 15 is a minimum, itcan easily be longer on individual days.

  2. Plan. Everything. Out. That means Script, Thumbnails, Pencils, Inks, Text, etc.

Peep my links for some short #comics.

Found out that Shane McGowan, of The Pogues, died 11 days ago. He was 65-years-old.

@atomicpoet He looked 95 when he was released from the hospital the week before. Tragic his substance abuse was.

@dimillian if the # of followers is important then you should stay at X, and consider Threads as well.
