been considering moving accounts (again). i feel like every time i open my dashboard i end up unfollowing a bunch of people, it feels like there's always so much negativity and shit. most of the stuff i reblog anymore is from diving into specific tags
it might be a pain remaking my main sideblogs (again) but i think moving would be super beneficial in the long run. anyone is still free to follow me, but im gonna be super selective with who i follow back. gonna better organize my tagging system.
prob gonna make the new acc tonight tbh? maybe consolidate several sideblogs into the singular blog. i said i was gonna do that at the start of this blog but we've learned a lot more abt ourselves as a system and want to be more open about it. so many of us were too shy to share to main at first bcus it's still always felt like "fern's blog". and as fern myself, the host, idk, i want it so not feel so exclusive to me
admittedly i dont play a LOT of really recent games with character customization, but its still insane to me that the only game ive ever seen that lets you use it/its pronouns is fucking. suitu. a mobile gacha fashion game. AND theres (golden) top surgery scars?
my submission to @catmask and @frogcroaks monster design contest! really enjoyed thinking outside the box for the Toxic Meltdown theme and embracing the hazard symbol and its colors!

These links focus on Palestinian-run grassroots initiatives that will reach Gazans on the ground, so all of these except eSIMs, PCRF, MAP, OOB are by Palestinians. Donating to international organizations is currently not ideal, as aid is still being stopped at the border. Please focus on Palestinian-run initiatives on the ground in Gaza instead.
Remember, small donations always add up. Any amount counts, even $1!
If you are unable to donate yourself, you can even adopt a fundraiser campaign to regularly boost and make materials promoting it online, or print posters and flyers about Palestinian fundraisers to encourage others to donate.
In case anyone finds it helpful because mobility aids are horrifically expensive and inaccessible…
And for those people who have access to mobility devices but might benefit from a second chair they can abuse without risking expensive damage…
Erik Kondo has made a website, Open Source Innovations, that details plans for DIY wheelchairs. These wheelchairs can be made from common materials like wood, plastic, and pvc. They are lightweight and can be custom fit to the user allowing from the same degree of movement you would get from a custom chair. And they are durable and easily repairable. (he has been stress testing his latest design by dropping it down stairs, dropping it out of a car, launching it across a driveway, and throwing it off a deck). Its 12lbs and I think he said its was in the $200 ish range for parts.
He also is working on cheap, open source, accessible designs for beach chairs, off road chairs, motorized attachments (think smart drive), and so on. Plus he skateboards in his wheelchair. Cool dude, helpful info, pass it on.
It's incredibly sad people have to resort to this, but it's a damn good resource. Use it. Spread awareness. Maybe one day people with physical disabilities won't need DIYs like this. But until then, reblog and share.
in case anyone is missing it arcane tiktok is recreating mishapocalypse by changing their pfps to show whether or not they support Jayce

even League of Legends is in on it, though they're avoiding choosing a side

This isn't talking about "floaters", this is about your entire vision resembling a computer screen with visible pixels, an effect that might be more pronounced when you're in the dark.

this is your thanksgiving reminder that the chinook tribe is still fighting for federal recognition, which means they are unable to access programs and resources. please take some time today to sign their petition and donate if you’re able to. and if you live in washington or oregon please write to your elected officials.
and another reminder that the quileute tribe (the very real tribe that was featured in twilight and received no compensation) is still located in a tsunami zone and is trying to move to higher ground. please consider donating.
"how can m/f ships be good-" first of all through the power of bisexuality anything is possible so write that down. second of all if we start othering ships based on gender and nothing else we're no better than the opposition. third of all you need to watch more addams family
