Time to catch up on everything and who's migrated over today. Hi, I'm LeafStranger, I cosplay angry redheads and characters for whom it'd make sense to hand out cookies, and sometimes there's crossover. Most of my posts will be of my pets, or of baking adventures. #ffxiv #ff14 #ffxivcosplay

Godbert and Dulia-Chai, which would honestly be a delightful situation because ain't no way that's economy class with those two, and you could get them talking about their spouses and politics really easily. Godbert would likely recognize that Dulia's obliviousness hides high observation skills.

This post is unavailable.

Some days, the things I celebrate are huge: getting an award, finishing a cosplay, nailing an interview, etc. Other days, the things I celebrate are tiny. Today, I got all the garbage, recycling, and compost out and swept the floors. I'm happy with both.

We'd like to thank @emunarum.bsky.social for contributing to the Arcadion wrestling showcase as we commissioned them to help bring some of the characters to life! Tyrant's #1 fan did his jacket and Howling Blade's along with Brute Bomber's bandanas. The wrestlers had fun closet cosplaying the rest

Replying to @annabookwriter.bsky.social

I’m a person with food allergies. No matter how well intentioned, if you bring me something I can’t eat, I will thank you and politely send it back with you so that someone who can eat it can enjoy it. This is apparently tantamount to refusing community to this person.

Repost if $30k would change your life right now

Matt Darling@besttrousers.bsky.social

I don't think $30k is a life-changing amount of money. Median American born in 1980 will have $2m in income in their lifetime. It's a 1% increase in earnings.

Everyone going to #GATEwayFATE - have fun. Drink water. Hug the people you only get to see while there and experience the joys of adventure and friendship! Alas, I can't be there to hand out ginger cookies and nudge people to eat, so ... do take care of yourselves? πŸ’™

Ladybug is literally $25 CDN away from being able to get the most basic tier of the dental care she needs!

Seanan McGuire@seananmcguire.bsky.social

I know we're all pretty strapped right now, but @yamyamyam.bsky.social is a dear friend, and Ladybug is one of those incredibly sweet, loving, pet rock-type cats who shouldn't be in pain just because her human's financial situation has changed: www.gofundme.com/f/send-ladyb...

Chicago area friends, I have a small favor to ask of you: please repost this and if possible get it to your trans friends and ideally into their discords and group chats. I and other students need to book lots of clients to graduate and you can get work done cheap, everybody wins!

Chicagoland trans people β€” did you know you can get electrolysis permanent hair removal done by trained students for ONLY $30/hour? πŸ™€ ELECTROLYSIS FOR $30 AN HOUR???!!!! Most electrologists charge $150/hour or more! πŸ‘‡ read this thread to find out how πŸ‘‡

I for one abandoned twitter because it was instrumental in helping the current group of monsters get elected and had already begun to fester into a hateful, rage inducing cess pool of slurs. So when people say "haha you left because of AI and now-" no, a lot of us didn't.

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

This is a good illustration of how so much of AI theft isn't indirect (ie, data sucked into a model to train the chatbot) - it's actually **direct** copying, but *enabled* by GenAI. Of course it is: chatbots absolutely suck at creating good, new stuff.
