It’s so cool that cities are like “pweeease only turn your AC on if you’re actively dying and don’t go below 79 🥺🤘🏻💗” while the AI nobody asked for is slurping up the power grid to make 1 image of a girl with 5 tits

I really hope that's real. And if it is, I bet it does a robust business.

Folks, we are down to the final 11 days on DEAD FORMAT. If money's tight, you don't have to get a perk. Just donate 5 or 10 bucks. Every dollar helps. We're currently 83% funded, and only need less than $10,000. That comes out to about $1,000 per day. www.indiegogo.com/projects/dea...

@cullenbunn.bsky.social I read your newsletter and that bag you bought from Grimbeard Leather is absolutely gorgeous.

If you're interested in this but hesitant, I can confirm. Brian is fun to hang out with. You'll see some interesting place and hear some good stories without a doubt. And you'll be helping some wonderfully creative people make art. Everyone wins.

PLEASE NOTE: The original 6 slots sold out quickly. Due to popular demand, Samantha is adding an additional 6 to the fundraiser right now. They should be live in a moment. Once those additional 6 are gone, that's it.

I still have signed copies of my new book for sale. If you'd like one, leave a comment. Asking $20, and that includes shipping. Thank you!

Like anyone, there are things I like about my job & employer and things I don't. One of the things I currently like is that for the second year in a row, we've implemented 'summer hours', which means half-day Fridays starting last week until Labor Day.
