The people here before me were the people who'd been ostracised from Big Social Media; by its users and by its rules. The people that came here after me were the people who were still getting harassed off BSM and could find some degree of safety here, in communities created specifically to keep them safe.
When I took over on .art in 2021 I became the owner of a community of artists who were here because BSM had failed them, in one way or another. We have the 'you must write in the box why you -

Was going to boost this through fedi, but seems to be a weird interaction between Awoo and Meow, so here's a direct link:

Turns out this wasn't too hard to set up now that other folks have explored how it works. Guide coming as soon as I have time to sit down and write it.

@chr So with my cursed internal headcanon that Tingle is also Master Kohga, it kind of makes sense that he left this somewhere underground. Though yeah, I wouldn't want this either. :p
Happy Pride! Reminder that being yourself is an act of generosity and love for yourself, an act of representation and solidarity with others, and an act of rebellion against fascists and corporations that would usurp pride for their own ends. 💜

Happy Pride month! Pride is always, which is why I'm glad International Coming Out day is outside of it. And especially given things lately in the US and abroad, it's especially important this year. #pride2023

how you, personally, can improve access to the legal system in the USA, for free, in a direct and concrete way
Reminder: PACER, the U.S. Federal Court electronic public records system, charges $0.10/page, but they delete your balance and do not bill you if you spend less than $30 in a quarter.
CourtListener's RECAP project is a free archive of the public records that PACER wants to charge money for. Those blue "Download PDF" buttons don't just happen -- every single one of them happened because someone, some specific person, installed the RECAP browser extension and picked up the document from PACER.
You, personally, can fill in the gaps in RECAP. You, an individual, can turn a black "Buy on PACER" button into a blue "Download PDF" button. Forever. For all time. For everybody in the world. For free, if you're under quota.
You have until the end of June to put 299 pages of court documents into the public eye. Which ones will it be? Which blue "Download PDF" buttons will be because, specifically, of you?
@kistaro Thank you for your timely donation of time, so the rest of us can truly marvel at how much of a train wreck "Shaboon v. Egyptair" and this plaintiffs other hallucinated citations are before the court.

More friendly pic of Chartreuse the dragon this time drawn by Caleb Lloyd.
When he was turned from a human to a dragon his bad eyesight didn't change one bit! Bit of a problem if you're trying to specialize in flying, but hey dragons in glasses look pretty cute IMO
re: zelda totk gameplay and sidequest spoilers
Really proud of my silly player-made house, even though the system is very limited.
TotK Major Spoilers (but still vague), dragons
@kilroy If I'm reading the tea leaves the game gives right, the Zonai were treated as gods when arriving in Hyrule. So there's a good chance the answer is they were also Zonai, which really makes one question what the triforce is in (this) Hyrule's founding myth.
Also, they have big floppy goat ears where I'm pretty sure the Light Dragon doesn't, which is kind of a massive clue. Need to check the models for them again though.
TotK spoilers, element-based weakness gripe
@kilroy Now that you mention it... yeah that absolutely should be a bonus and I'm surprised it doesn't work too.
I wonder if it's implemented on arrows though? I haven't tested, but it seems like exactly the kind of thing they would do as a callback to earlier games.

Update: I like that they made an entire Zelda game to go with Korok Space Program.

This is probably the best thing I ever posted on Twitter. The memory is pretty dear to me; I'm sharing it here so it still exists somewhere if that place collapses.

Temporary ref for pear-shaped friend form until I eventually get a proper model done.
