PSA AR15 Pistol - 5.56x45mm

Hey, friends, it's October 20, 2024, and guess what that means?

If you guessed that means it's time for yet another recall due to potential Listeria contamination, congratulations, you win…uh…digging through your freezer for recalled products again?

This time, they're frozen waffles sold in the US and Canada, manufactured by TreeHouse Foods and sold under a huge variety of brand names.

To date, there have been no confirmed reports of illness due to this, but the manufacturer is recalling the products after Listeria was found during routine testing at the facility. This has nothing to do with the other recent recalls of various meat products from Boar's Head and BrucePac, aside from, y'know. Listeria.

You can find a searchable list of affected products here, and should throw them away or return them for a refund if you find that you have any:

Not slavic paganism related. But i have seen so many Tumblr's digital temples on the edge of becoming cult-ish , so i just want to kindly remind everyone, that while it's okay to have a set of rules in your temple, its beliefs, and concepts. PLEASEEE look into educating yourself on cults, how they come to be, and how they impact society and brainwash people.

Please! Look a bit into your impact on people that follow your pages. You may be just a small Tumblr page , but the impact you make and the position you form yourself, they can absolutely influence people! Make sure to remind people you are not the authority figure. Even if you are a self proclaimed priest of your temple!

I mean this with the depth of my heart. And with all due respect.

Educate yourself on how easily a pagan community can become a cult. Set boundaries on how people perceive you and your temple.

Thanks for reading!

Ps. Please don't name names in the comments!!

Yelling and name-calling [ at your significant other ] are just as abusive as physical abuse

Now, for some they can get behind the name-calling but they might rationalize the yelling

And while it's true that we all have moments where we lose our tamper and yell, there comes a point where it's becoming a regular occurrence and it's started to affect the person getting yelled at

No one should have to go through that. No one should be expected to deal with it because "we're all human" or whatever excuse someone brings up

You’re doing great.

Your story is beautiful.

Your art is delightful.

You don’t need smut to conjure up feeling.

You don’t need explicitly tagged darkness to be deep. (And people who need to be told that there’s lore, worldbuilding, trauma, healing etc aren’t half as smart and intellectual as they think they are).

Smut and fluff are not dumb or shallow.

People who are rude just to be rude are not worth your time.

People who love what you do will not always tell you.

Don’t give up. You’re doing a great thing, and I believe in you.

Stay true to yourself and do what makes you happy.

Fuck those other cunts. Let them stew in their salty acid until they’re pickled.

Since the whole thing with NaNoWriMo has gone down, I've noticed that one of their former sponsors, Ellipsus, has cut contact with NaNoWriMo because they do not support their stance on AI; I didn't know what Ellipsus was, but upon further research I've found that they are a writing platform that works a lot like Google Docs and Microsoft Word, only with a heavier leaning on the story-writing aspect and connecting with other writers - and they also completely denounce any use of AI, both in the writing process itself and in the use of their platform. I really appreciate that.

Since this is the case (and since I've noticed Google has begun implementing more AI into their software), I've decided to give Ellipsus a try to see if it's a good alternative to Google Docs (my main writing platform). It's completely free and so far, I've found it simple to use (although it is pretty minimal in its features), and I really like the look of it.

I figured I'd spread the word about this platform in case any of you writers would want to give it a try, and if you do, let me know how you like it!

btw the majority of your life will be lived as a adult. yeah i don't make the rules. go have fun in your 40s or 70s or whatever. no one expects you to accomplish everything at 17 or 27. you've got time and in the meantime get some life experience, it will pay off

U.S. people, if you bought cinnamon from Dollar Tree, Dollar General, or other discount stores, throw it out. It's got lead

Just to make a point, every time I finished a panel of this I would export it as a PNG on the perceptual setting and use it as a color reference for the next panel

IT'S BAD

PLEASE CHECK YOUR COLOR SETTINGS

EDIT: If you're still having problems, it might help to switch from "Save/Save as" to "Export (as a) Single Layer". Just. Make SURE the box labeled "Expression Color" is set to RGB. I've been messing with this all day, and it looks like this combination of settings will allow exported PNGs to maintain their colors perfectly. To you. So far both Discord and Toyhouse still only display desaturated images and I cannot for the life of me figure out why

Since the r-slur is making a comeback (you know, the word that starts with R, has six letters, and ends in D), I'm gonna make a little PSA:

Yes, it's an ableist slur.

Terms like "asshat," "head-up-ass," "up their own ass," and "high on their own farts" exist. There's also words like crap, dogshit, half-assed, assclown, and chucklefuck. And on the less vulgar side, there are terms like ridiculous, nonsense, train wreck, pointless, insipid, self-absorbed, pretentious, annoying, boring, contemptible, vile, and disgusting.

Substituting words like restarted, poptarted, brain damaged, smoothbrain, etc. is still ableist, because either 1. you obviously still mean the r-word, or 2. you're still using disability as an insult.
