Two years ago, my partner and I adopted a sweet senior dog named Mac. While senior, he's in great health except for some extreme congestion that he's had since Nov. We're out of in-house vet options and need to take him for pricey additional testing: www.gofundme.com/f/help-mac-g...

I know times are tough all around and I don't expect to make the full amount, but if you can even share the post, it would be so helpful. Our pets are our family and we've had a really rough go of it with both of them for the last few months. We want to give them the best quality of life we can.

NEW: A hobbyist has created Nearby Glasses, an app that warns you if someone close by is wearing smart glasses. 404 Media spoke to the creator who said he was inspired by our coverage that uncovers how men are wearing Meta's Ray-Bans to covertly film massage parlor workers.
some of the olympic women including maddie mastro have been reposting this if youโre curious about the vibe in response to the US menโs little display
One cool thing about unequivocally hating AI is that you will be proven right over and over again every single day
In search of environmental concept artists / background artists for paid assignment. Looking for anything speculative, not set in the real world, but otherwise open to a broad range of styles!

look ashley is some kind of hero and you should go to the website she made, www.standwithminnesota.com, and see if there's somewhere you wanna throw a few bucks
For so long Amazon has had a monopoly on selling self-published books. Good to see that @bookshop.org is ready to compete in the space! www.publishersweekly.com/pw/by-topic/...
I subscribe to a lot of indie pubs, but here are five worker-owned companies I'll never abandon:
- @404media.co: essential technology!
- @rascal.news: essential tabletop!
- @aftermath.site: essential video games!
- @defector.com: essential everything!
- @hellgatenyc.com: essential New York!
I haven't been very online lately, and I've felt really disconnected from pretty much everything. But I just want all my comic pals and peers to know that I am here rooting for you, and I can't wait to see all the amazing things y'all are working on โค๏ธ
I'm very late to the party cause I'm not on here a lot these days but I can't wait to share these delightful stories with y'all very soon.
Cat's outta the bag! I'm one of the creators working on BABY GARFIELD over at Boom. Very excited to be a part of this project.

This is a surefire way to destroy every bit of goodwill you've ever built up with this industry. AI is trained on the stolen work of the creators that primarily USE YOUR BUSINESS! Read the room.
Do NOT create chatbots based on creators you like. It is creepy. It is the wildest, nastiest, creepshit thing you can do omfg please act like someone normal raised you! This is for everyone in every fandom! Don't do this shit!
While Amazon is investing billions of dollars to expand AI, independent bookstores are hosting community events, personally recommending books to readers, and providing a space that is safe and welcoming during a time when we need them most.
Never underestimate the power of a local bookstore.

Ahahahahaha BRITTTTTTTT! I'm so excited for tomorrow, can't wait to see you twice in a week ๐
Tomorrow I'll be at the Maybe Market! It's my last show of the year, and if you have any littles to shop for, come get some books from me and say hello ๐ There's lots of incredible vendors too!
A promo poster with a snowy purple sky, deep green pine trees at the bottom right and the bottom left a singing male cardinal. In the centre it says โthe Maybe Market! December 13 11-5pm Christ church deer park 1570 Yonge st.โ
Another promo poster, a light purple and pink bg with sparkles and the words โthe maybe market Dec 13thโ floating in the middle
Next up is my own market this Saturday! The Maybe Market is organized by me and Tory Woollcott with sporadic help from a few others. I thought maybe Iโd start a little thread with all the vendor spotlights Iโm posting to IG.

Ha! Yeah, he's a winner ๐
Ahhhhh stopppp! That makes me so happy to hear! Do they have a fave character ๐
Right, this event needs $1500 to happen. There are 600 participating bookstores & for most itโs their busiest sales day of the year, or is second only to Indie Bookstore Day / Small Business Saturday.
Editors/publishers, this is a no-brainer of an opportunity for your imprint. Romancelandia: pls RT
