I know it's an email, but seriously Graters, giving ice cream sandwiches out for Halloween is a horrible idea

Do I know anyone who’s submitted to the Webbys, and do you have any advice to make sure I provide the right entry point for judges? It’s expensive and I don’t want to flush money down the toilet by not setting myself up for success.

This week - a total of 7 open slots!

This week we reopen some members of the Donquixote Family but we also have new character, Queen Mom Chanter as an open suggestion character! You can suggest any unused One Piece character up through Season 25! #OnePiece #TheSimpsons

This is one of the things my therapist taught me that helped improve my mental health: Focus on a few things that you can actually change and do those. Start with your local community. You can’t help anyone if you’re burned out. Personally, I focus on going above and beyond for my patients.

I’ve got until tomorrow morning to reach this goal and keep a roof over our heads. Anything helps, even signal boosting this.

We’ve made no progress on the rental/sublet front and still need to raise funds to cover the room until I get paid again next week. I’ve got until Saturday morning to reach this goal. Pls share this when you see it. Anything helps!

Vivek Ramaswamy has been a horrible person in public for so long that until a friend reminded me, I totally forgot that I wrote a letter to the editor blasting his opposition to a living wage for campus workers more than *two decades ago*

I've seen a few smaller companies make a follow up post where they promise to never use AI again after negative feedback which is fed to the anti AI audience and part of me wonders how many of them never used AI in the first place (and how many still use AI like the AI MS Paint and marker posts)

I trust zero campaign texts because this is what people asking for my money are sending me. I'm not Will for one thing

The Castle of Otranto Preface 1: you won't believe how messed up this old Italian romance is? And like, I did my best job translating it but it isn't as good as the original. Hope you enjoy. Preface 2: so, I lied about it being old and Italian. Someone got YELLED AT...

I got a job helping a guy measure clothes he was listing on eBay that offered $20 an hour in cash. I was ready to quit my minimum wage McDonald's job but my dad had me ask him for a contract and the guy fired me.

Wait the same one which is also working to acquire the Giant Eagle brand which would then result in more lost jobs and closed stores?

Kroger just announced the largest layoffs in its history, with plans to cut 3,000 employees as it ramps up use of AI. Reminder that Kroger has spent $12.3B on stock buybacks since 2019 and paid its CEO $14M last year — 417x its median worker's pay. AI is turbo-charging corporate greed.

Had a morning where the first email I sent ended with a warning that I would pursue legal action. (Clearly say no to AI training)

Boss, boss. You know that niche content for a gaming site you were looking for? I got it. Which ER character would be best at Elden Ring?

No joke. I think this is the most important video I have ever seen about mobile games. This guy breaks down how this game psychologically profiles you, and makes the game harder or easier in order to show you ads

The last half of this quote wasn't circulating nearly as much yesterday, but it's actually the clincher. God bless this brilliant, gifted, absolutely deranged man.

I wanted to take this time to share my appreciation for the great Maddie Blaustein, yesterday was her Birthday and she would've turned 66. If you didn't know, Maddie Blaustein was a intersex trans voice actress and she's best remembered as the voice of Meowth In Pokémon. (4Kids) 🏳️‍⚧️🧵 #maddieblaustein

I have only a few hours to raise the remaining $625. I need to have this sewn up before I have to get to work later. Anything helps!

Still working on a better housing solution but for now, I have until Saturday AM to raise $800 for the next week of the room until I get paid again. Anything extra goes towards food & transpo to work and to doctors’ appointments for my chronically ill gf. Anything helps!

Alright, I guess I'm doing this. I HAVE RETURNED TO PATREON. Most of you are aware that I lost my day job and have been unceremoniously thrust into the role of a full-time Comic Person. While my lettering work is certainly robust, I still need more help than that. www.patreon.com/cw/longtallj...

I can't blame them for stopping but I am a bit disappointed to find Pokemon stopped making the Halloween card packs for trick or treating two years ago

Something AI is responsible for that doesn't get enough talk: How, when it scrapes a website to illegally steal everything on it, it uses up a ton of its bandwidth allotment, crashing it or racking up massive fees for site owners.

Edd Coates | Game UI Database@eddcoates.bsky.social

Yet again, the Game UI Database is being scraped to the point that it's getting knocked offline. Even Cloudflare's "I'm under attack" mode isn't working. I just wanted to create a resource for real designers. I'm getting so fucking sick of this.
