So, how quickly can we run this thing into full cyberdystopia?

OR... techno-occult post-modern paradise communes?

Asking for a friend.

Today's reason I am The Worst: I dismissed my child when he said, "what if someone won the Starbucks For Life contest but that person ALSO had an eternal life potion??"

He's mad because I forgot his rock-solid certainty that he will be the one to invent eternal life potions, so OF COURSE this could happen.

Happy Thursday, everyone.

Yet another wind chill advisory today. We've had to spend every single day of winter break inside.

While getting dressed I find myself pondering a video game where you are a shoulder dragon with shoulder dragon sized problems. Sure, the wizard whose shoulder you ride on has some complex world-in-peril narrative to deal with, and every now and then she makes you do some weird mission that can only be accomplished by a tiny dragon, but mostly you're concerned with lazing around the place while she does research, stealing cookies from the cabinet, chasing the local rats and birds, accumulating a shoulder dragon sized hoard of shiny things, and so on.

It would be the most relaxing thing ever.

If you're new to Masto (or are old to it but still figuring it out) and you want to know how to sort out who to follow: One of my best methods is to find a good conversation, see who's saying things there that make sense, /and follow that profile/.

It's a vastly better algo than checking who's following you (assortment of rando space alien cats), soliciting suggestions (though that can work).

It also means that the best way to get followers /is to converse productively/.

Hello world!

I’m not very good at those things. Followed my friend @polychrome here, it looks like a friendly place.

So, for #introductions, I’m an illustrator and comic artist, or at least I try to be. I love rats, and comics, robots, cyberpunk, and urban fantasy. Sometimes I knit.

I have a webcomic at ooscomic.tumblr.com and sometimes I even update it.

So, uh, hi? (^_^);

Accounts that just spam news bullshit to the public timelines should be immediately banned.

The possibilities for #yarnuary are really pretty endless - I didn't have room or brain power to write about every last textile possibility, after all.

So long as it's textile- or fiber- related and you made it, feel free to stick the #yarnuary hashtag on it. If you want to share something you made a decade ago that you're proud of, go for it! If you want to share the start of something and you're still learning how, that's good too!

Hey what's the name for those special bowls that crème brulee is made in?

Ah, yes, the two genders, Translator Zeiat and Translator Dlique.

I liked almost every part of better than I liked the story.

May your 2018 be characterized by radical empathy and a simultaneous expulsion of everything toxic or harmful to your communities from their spaces.
