🧵*9/22/2025 noncooperation thread* A daily-ish thread of acts of noncooperation & noncompliance. * This 8/28 tiktok from @jamellebouie.net is all still true: "When you look at the collapse of authoritarian regimes...what you see is civil society standing up & saying no. So stand up. And say no."
also it breaks my heart how many people may be forced to trot out their past trauma to have their work legitimized in front of a jury of platform mods. I'm a private person about my actual life and it sickens me. Literally over my dead body to appease people who don't actually care about me
Don't come to the US because ICE will kidnap you.
What is it? October right around the corner? 👁👁 👻 What about a commission for your spooky autumn tastes? raposabranca.crd.co #halloween #commissions #commissionsopen
Anyway, may have just whiffed a job interview because they were like "Please tell us how you use AI in your daily work and how you would integrate it into the workflow of this position" and my reply was "Hard no"
Following up on this: his response is so normal it's painful-the core reason he interrupts it is because recipe writers include long, breathy, earnestly irrelevant stories not because They Don't Know Better; but because they need it for SEO. AI is reading the intros that we skip 😂
Again, if you havent done this and deleted your account its really important that you do. This isnt any usual ToS nonsense. This is a heightened and dangerous escalation of thievery to both yourself and your work
Anyway the answer seems to be "No" because the miniatures are easily lost and because carrying them around might damage the paint job or the little stands/terrain :( I feel weirdly bereft No field trips for tiny guys
THEY WROTE NUMBERS ON THEIR WRISTS I can’t see straight. Obviously there is so much wrong happening here, but this detail is fucking chilling. These are human beings.
Them rusty ass keys lol
A reminder that lynching and sun down towns still exist in the US. This is just the same “he whistled at me” BS with new coats of paint.
"Are ghost candles a fire hazard?" Is that a real candle that looks like a ghost or a candle in another plane of existence that looks like a ghost and was lit by a ghost or did the ghost light a real candle in our plane of existence and the appearance of the candle is irrelevant. Help us help you.
Guys when they say boycott Disney they especially mean Marvel. They especially mean Star Wars and Hulu and all your faves. Come on now.
I thank you for people who help RT this. I thought I'm opening this kind of commission could help fills some income. But maybe not many interested on DA anymore and move on, or they could just use genAI to make their own Lavellan card 🥲
I am extremely pissed off about this... on the kids' behalf. The kids now are ours, right? We should know how necessary those shining moments away from expectations are. My best memories of my teen years there were adults NO. WHERE.
The Internet truly was Prometheus’ fire. We as a society have yet to prove ourselves worthy of this much knowledge and connection. All we’ve done with it is create new ways to hurt each other and to profit from hate. We’ve sacrificed entire generations to it for NOTHING.
based on the current vibe, i wrote a bad collage poem pulled from platforms’ censorship rollouts. with a few tiny adjustments.

The updated COVID/histamine link thread because people keep tagging me in to explain it and I keep intending to update the post from 2023 (synecdochic.dreamwidth.org/805203.html) and just not having the capacity because of my own health shit so here is a thread I can pin
combat boots and slip dresses can fight fascism
Make sure it's purple glitter, please.
If i even got 1 dollar from every follower I had (or 5 from all the active ones) I could get caught up on my rent and get this impending eviction from over my head. Hate to beg but I’m desperate.
I feel bad for those of yall who hate kids. My neighbor’s baby insisted they set aside a muffin for me while I was at work. I just ate it and that muffin was banging. That two year old has my back. 😭
People put nasty obituaries in the paper about shitty family members all the time. Relax.
I’m an Autistic classically trained chef and I wrote a food aversion acceptance cookbook and guide titled COLOR TASTE TEXTURE, that’s all about finding out what works for specific sensory needs and how to customize food for them. It’s useful for all ages, no cooking experience necessary.
So he keeps ripping his own scab off which means he's getting bandaged and given a cone and has to stay inside until Thursday, his next appointment. Poor buddyyyy T_T But yeah, that means more vet trips, so if you have a bit to spare and wanna contribute to the Tom leg fund, ko-fi.com/triaelf9
I went to a meeting two weeks ago [my first in almost a year, for any reason!]. Local business people. One of them is talking with me about ways to get local folks their medications when they can't afford it. That's worth more than every party meeting that's been held the last decade, frankly.
I need you all to do something for me, a person with autism. If they announce what the cause is, or what the cure is, or whatever... Certainly dispute the science. But before that. Remind everyone that autism is okay. It's not deadly. It's just a way some people's brains are.
Whenever sites come up with new rules like this I thing about how if you were a creator who was making something every bit on the level with a hugely popular and acclaimed series, would you be allowed to share it? Like, if you were sitting on the next Game of Thrones, you couldn’t share that here.
FUNNY YOU SHOULD ASK, BITCH
Crossing fingers for minimal-to-no side effects, just the meds doing what they're supposed to!
Like I don’t mind work. I like a fulfilling days acoomishment! I just believe that EVERYONE’s accomplishments count , and not just based on hierarchy

I mean I agree with this…but I think we have differing ideas of who’s the light and who’s the dark.
YES . getting less and less hopeful on my end for us getting it together , between the racism and the continual selective forgetting of the past five years it’s making me sad Direction Action and preservation have acted AMAZINGLY but the cohesive narrative of an “after” is missing
Something tells me that that person is PEAK, "I'm not racist, I'm just anti-Southern, and I will pretend I don't know the South is where the majority of Black USians live."
Strange, the bully is kicking my ass even though I've been telling everyone how much I respect him. Maybe he hasn't heard
Emphasizing this excellent point: speaking only positively of any health condition isolates people who are really suffering. Even if it isn’t a policy, discouraging people from talking honestly about conditions, treatment, etc endangers people at the highest risk to protect people from discomfort.
Lovely Nella commissioned me to paint this for her best friend. ty for the opportunity ♥️ #DragonAge

After like 40 years of seeing yt women idolize Holly Golightly I finally watched Breakfast at Tiffany’s and was slapped by the craziest case of yellow face I’ve ever seen. So many yt women wax poetic about Heathcliff and never mention he’s brown in the text 😬
The Kirk memorial service is set up as a religious revival (his killing has been framed that way by Cardinal Dolan & others). The singer says: "We want the Kirk family to be healed, and we want our land to return to Jesus." Christian nationalism had become part of Kirk's brand - it's on full display
A recap of the memorial/rally if you can stomach it. I also encourage folks to watch Happy Shiny People, particularly the second season that focuses on Teen Mania, to get a clear view of what's been going on here.
Courier Pyre "The Mutt" & their wolf Bela. Resident Gangrel smart ass. How their mouth hasn't gotten them in trouble yet is a miracle. #SalemArt #VTM #VTMNightRoad
Disney adults canceling subscriptions, vacations, etc really are making the Harry Potter adults that threw a fit over a $60 video game look like huge bitches
Maybe Casten means when Lewis said Lewis and the Civil Rights movement wasn’t fighting individual people like Connor et al, but they were fighting Jim Crow, segregation, literacy tests, and poll taxes? southernchanges.digitalscholarship.emory.edu/sc24-3-4_001...
When you’ve lost the Disney adults…
Y'all @blackamazon.bsky.social has given so much and had so much taken for granted. Let's give back to someone who has had a major impact in many lives, including mine. gofund.me/37878f773
Earlier I stopped reading after the first sentence. I can’t find an article quoting John Lewis that he forgave Bull Connor. Wilson, Patterson, Wallace? Yes. But not Connor. I’m just going to leave this here. Vis a vis Reagan and Lewis. baystatebanner.com/2020/07/22/c...
Always important to remember that air travel sucks ass and for a 2-year-old it probably is literally the worst thing that's ever happened to them I'd be screaming too but I have, like, bills
15 years ago the Supreme Court decided corporations are people under the First Amendment. Today, sold-out politicians block progress on all fronts to appease their corporate donors. Citizens United is among the worst decisions in history. It corrupts our system every day.
Maybe that's the guy who runs the account? 🤔
Hi, new followers from the disability thread or any of the exasperated threads the last week or so. I write books, and right now I am studying in Scotland to ascend to my final form (librarianship). This means the writing and active selling is on pause, but it doesn’t mean I don’t love my books.
People will really look you in the eyes and say "we need to learn and embrace the fact that AI is inevitable" and live demos like this exist showing that regardless of even the strongest faith in it you still have to properly stage it for a coin flip in success.
For the Nth time, white people who are about that life are NOT camping out in Black people's mentions litigating their wounded feelings. They're out here opening purses and abetting liberation. They take no issue cause they *know for sure* we're not talking about them.
A last addition: Kudos to those labeling! That’s exactly the right approach. Sail on my friends! Not labeling (which can happen via accident or when reposting) is counterproductive to the cause in my view. Nobody’s perfect, but it’s something to ponder on.
How is long Covid going today? Well, just added vanilla to the list of food allergies, which is now over 60 foods I used to eat daily. Don’t get long covid.
I can't make the Tuesday rapture. My schedule is packed. Four o'clock, wallow in self pity. Four-thirty, stare into the abyss. Five o'clock, solve world hunger, tell no one! Five-thirty, jazzercize. Six-thirty, dinner with me; I can't cancel that again. Seven o'clock, wrestle with my self-loathing.
We could have had the Red Wolves, Red Hawks and there were a few other names we suggested and bad ass Native designed and influenced mascots to match but they went with "Commanders" 🤣🤣🤣🤣
100% because there's a huge difference between shitposting which is what a lot of folks do and actually organizing, mobilizing and raising awareness online and off. Social media has played a crucial role in elevating awareness of the struggles that Indigenous people face and sparked movements.
Bringing my annual tradition over here to Bluesky... IT'S SEPTEMBER 21st y’all know what time it is 🔊🎶

And literally four days later from this story Open AI admits what we all know to he true. That when a model generates bullshit, that’s no flaw, that’s just how it works. www.computerworld.com/article/4059...
Dude I'm not even a NSFW artist and I think it in all its forms should have a place here because there is no way in hell some mod or 3rd party auto solution is gonna ever get it "right". People can already curate their feeds and they have some moderation tools, who is all that stuff really harming
Would really love to not be trying to race against the clock to avoid eviction this month but that’s where we are. REALLY need the help here. And if all plays out as I hope I’ll finally be back on my feet for October.
This gets a paragraph, if that, in high school US history.
The problem right now is very basic. Part 1: A social media platform gets enough traction to be *big* and had a large user base Part 2: A large user base requires funding to handle server costs Part 3: The social media is now connected to some version of capital and its interests
An amazing number of people didn’t bother to read this story and thus don’t realize the 37 year old man mentioned here was *horrified and reported it* - he is not the problem here! Mark Zuckerberg’s historically evil company is!
Do NOT do this. Shout louder. Me and all the other nsfw artists need you to shout louder
I will NOT be participating in #BlueskyBlackout2025 because they are clearly literally trying to make all the cool people leave. Why should we make it easy?
I think this is true AND that the bs around disability access, specifically the decision to be extra shitty to ND folks, really rubbed a LOT of ppl the wrong way. Disneyland in particular has a lot of disabled die-hards bc it’s uniquely accessible, and they’ve been fucking with them for a minute
Please do not do this. All #blueskyblackout2025 is gonna do is let the Bluesky mods think they've won. You want to know how to stand up for artists and creators? BE LOUD!!! Continue calling out Bluesky's action and submit feedbacks to them over their censorship guidelines.
This is a BAD idea from a tactical pov all this means is an issue that bsky mods do NOT want controversy around will have NO posting about it for a full week a large number of people who come back from the "blackout" will likely not start up the complaints again it hamstrings the cause
Doing such a good job of butling 😭
Were this my butler buddy, I'd name them Wadsworth for Tim Curry's character in Clue.
Omg, yes, little butler buddy!
What's their vibe? It's an important part of choosing their name!
Happy birthday!
Now posted at The NDN Silver Blog, it's a work for these days of lengthening dark, illuminated for us by a long rain of stars: wingssilverwork.com/a-fall-of-di....
I've seen posts going "they still have alot of money it doesn't effect them" Fail to see that if the pothole is big enough they notice.
I'm pondering the Disney boycott and how fast it revved up. When I was a kid, Disney brought you Sunday movie night and reasonably affordable Disney on Ice shows. Going to the park once was in reach for middle class families. You liked their movies or you didn't but you knew what you'd get. ...
I would like the 174 house democrats who voted for this to drop an update on their security concerns
By the way, the dev they fired over a joke seems like an absolute class act, standing by the studio and coworkers and showing the kind of integrity the studio head should have, instead of folding to right wing pressure campaign and jeopardising something a lot of people worked hard on for years.
this comes around every once in a while, and idk I'm sure there are some real sketchy folks out there but it turns out a lot of authors--brace yourselves--like to read books. and talk about them.
A post I saw earlier showed a few examples of Disney adults doing similar. One said "If I wear or eat something Disney, Disney makes money off my followers buying the thing I showed. I can't in good conscience keep recommending them right now." (paraphrase)
None of that Twitter mob was gonna buy the game anyway, but this sniveling capitulating is sure gonna make the actual audience think twice. Remind me, did anyone at Sony or Sucker Punch speak out to condemn threats and harassment Erika faced?
I am doing my best to navigate this situation. So please be understanding that I am NOT responsible for tariff fees. I am not adding a random fee to my products. I don't profit off tariffs. I am losing money and sales. And my business is hurting cause of the tariffs.
this charlie kirk deification is some of the weirdest shit i have ever seen
The next part is gonna be supporting folks and real discussions about where we go from here Because folks are not prepared for the stress the real conversations are gonna take
Maine led the country in enshrining the “right to food” in its state constitution. But the subjugation of the Wabanaki Nations has complicated that right for the original inhabitants of the land. mainemorningstar.com/2025/09/19/h...
Let's talk about debate. If you're an Indigenous woman like me, you love to argue, question, challenge & debate just about everything. When I was younger, I used to try and argue/debate everything so much that my mom bought me a hand mirror & told me if I wanted to argue, I could argue with myself 🤣
look you can allow art that grosses you out to exist or you can be a fascist. "But surely there can be an exception for--" nope. exceptions mean you're a fascist. "But--" NOPE. fascist.
Do not punish the behaviour you want to see.
I understand that a lot of my customers cannot afford to pay the duties/tariffs fees. Which is why I'm spending several thousands to move my products to a US Fulfillment Centre. This will raise product prices a bit but it's way cheaper than paying for tariffs directly.
Reminder that Blusky, like Twitter before it, by the very nature of how it functions - fosters digestible & simplified posts that are easy to generate anger & antagonist stances over - even with people you mostly agree with. Remember to try to not make enemies here - unless someone is a clear POS.
I genuinely think Disney is so omnipresent that people can’t keep track of all the properties they own anymore and this is just a lack of knowledge issue.
