And no matter whose ass is in the White House, no one can take that from us. The Underground Railroad. The Jane Collective. Mutual Aid. Women’s Suffrage. The Civil Rights Movement. ACT UP. Historically, we’ve told the government “fuck you, we care”, and now is no different. We are survivors, we will endure, and we will support one another. Because as long as we do, they never win.
Don’t give up.
Don’t ever give up. Endure.
This does not have much to do with Halloween, or October, or Autumn. But it was inspired by me thinking about the passage of time today, thanks to personal stuff. But still, I am not that happy with how the sand looks.
Today, I drew a Raven. It is not perfect, but I at least stopped with the more simplistic trees. Not happy with the legs.
This is one of the reasons why I moved to Linux Mint.
I moved last October, and you all should do so too.
Also From Microsoft’s own FAQ: "Note that Recall does not perform content moderation. It will not hide information such as passwords or financial account numbers. 🤡
Those wolf pups are no more dire wolves than GloFish are bioluminescent jellyfish. This whole thing is pathetic and sensationalist and betrays both an utter societal ignorance of the basics of genetics and evolution and a disregard for animal life, extinct or extant. Nothing Colossal has done is novel or significant and they should be shut down.
This is more complicated. According to many forms(such as Catholicism), magic does not exist, and believing in sorcery/magic and in witches is heresy, for only God has the ability to change the rules of reality or mess with them.
This is also not limited to Catholicism. The Eastern Roman Empire and its Orthodox Church classified belief in witchcraft as a form of superstition, and eventually even classified belief in witchcraft as a heresy. Not practicing it, actually believing it was a thing in the first place.
It would be more accurate to say that the belief that „using magic is blasphemous” is a more protestant belief, where the official doctrine in other parts was „witchcraft does not exist”.
I think we need to appreciate this part of Brennan Lee Mulligan's WIRED interview a lot more:
"The evangelical right in this country needs to manufacture outrage to hold onto its voting block. [The satanic panic about DnD] was arbitrary, as the targets of their outrage always are. Fight the power."
A map I made for a collaborative worldbuilding project on Spacebattles.
Halloween. A holiday that is not native to Romania. But one I celebrated since I was little. And this mounth of drawings was part of the celebration.
And the month basically ends as it begun. With a pumpkin.
dear USAmericans,
VOTING WORKS!!!
French people showed up, French people voted, turnout was higher today than it has been since 1997, and we kicked the far right to 3rd place
a week ago, the far right was the biggest party in France, we were slated for a far right parliament, prime minister, and government
this week, we voted against them en masse and we won!
VOTING WORKS!
you're up next in November! it's very rare we get to say this, but this one time, take example on the French! show up and vote!
because VOTING WORKS!
Nothing complicated today. I studied and worked, so I lacked the time needed to fully comit.
