THERE IS. a website. that takes 3D models with seams and pulls it apart to make a plushie pattern and informs you where things need to be edited or darts added for the best effect. and then it lets you scale it and print off your pattern. and I want to lose my MIND because I've lost steam halfway through so many plushie patterns in the mind numbing in betweens of unwrapping, copying all of the meshes down as pieces, transferring those, testing them, then finding obvious tweaks... like... this would eradicate 99% of my trial and error workflow for 3D models to plushies & MAYBE ILL FINALLY FINISH SCREAMTAIL...

gonna be honest the embrace of patheticness on this site is an abysmal culture

having anti punitive justice morals sucks because you want to say "man that guy sucks he should get hit with hammers until he dies" but you also want to make it clear you don't think anyone should be put in charge of the 'hit people with hammers until they die" machine.

what does the revolution must not be televised mean?

"you can't call people eggs because some have internalized bigotries and they will push themselves further into the closet" personally i think it's good to force others to face their bigotries

The No Kings protest organizers in Portland intentionally led people away from ICE, walking into a loop nowhere near any institution we are demanding change from.

Liberal protests always try to ride the coattails of revolutionary street actions, attempting to take credit for its work, but without taking any of the risks freedom necessitates. There’s a reason liberal protests always fizzle into nothingness - there’s no demands, no confrontation with power, no risk taken to achieve freedom, and that’s what the people in power want. They want permitted jogging that doesn’t even confront the institutions we want changes from. That’s why they announce such protests are not a threat (to them and their power). They want us walking in circles and then going home thinking we’ve achieved something.

The friends that are chronically 30 minutes late are so important to have because they teach u patience and the meaning of loving someone so much u let ur anger go. I have not mastered either yet but I’m sure it’s coming

United Healthcare getting sued by its investors, because it didn't warn them that the CEO getting murdered (by the tendrils of their unmitigated greed) was going to lead to them approving more claims (for covered services that they had no right to deny) is a cartoonish example of exactly why their CEO got murdered.

Their argument is essentially "You promised us a specific profit margin that is not possible to achieve under this increased public scrutiny of your unethical practices. We only agreed to invest because of those unethical practices. So we demand compensation because you didn't warn us that you'd be behaving more ethically"

And idk. Satire isn't just dead. We've pissed on its corpse and now it's dissolving in lye.

what will it be, boss? the comfort of misery or the pain of change?

how do you stop thinking about grief? like i’m supposed to go to work and shit

you go out, and you talk to people, and your grief speaks to their grief, and eventually some of those people become your friends, and you find that most things weigh less heavily on you when you have someone to help you carry them

I love that I share my house with one of the most efficient apex predators millions of years of evolution could produce. I love that two of nature’s most prolific machines met and were like “hmmm. We should lay around and do nothing together”. Now we’re both fat and happy and full of meat. The hedonism of it all
