Exploiting my long-suffering graphic artist father,
@Chasm49,
for uncompensated labor and just wanted to share some of his cool concept sketches. Things'll get significantly simplified for business card purposes, but how groovy is this?

That's one spicy source. I have never seen a T in front of a Becquerel.

Help!

I am running a free event for women in esports targeted at 16-21 year old women and enbys around careers in the competitive gaming industry.

Does anyone know of who’d be interested in supporting this or possibly coming along as a see-it-be-it ?

Already have some major players on board but any ideas welcomed.

Retooting welcomed.

And since it sadly needs to be clear these days, this is trans-inclusive.

#OnThisDay, 1 May 1944, South African Phyllis Latour parachutes into occupied France to be a radio operator for the British Special Operations Executive.

She's never captured.

She died in 2023, in New Zealand.

newly adopted cat medical care question 

We adopted a cat 2 weeks ago and took him for a vet check-up today. We had noticed a missing fang when we adopted him, but the rescue organization did not mention it to us and there was no note of it in his medical records.

The vet observed that the fang is not missing, it is broken, and our cat needs to have the tooth extracted. He told us to contact the rescue organization and see if they can cover the cost, which will be $1,800.

The organization included a trial pet insurance policy, but it does not cover dental care unless you pay for an upgrade. I'm guessing that the broken tooth will be considered a pre-existing condition and they won't cover it.

I guess I'll call both the rescue and the pet insurance company and ask - it won't hurt to try to get some help...

Any advice on how to approach this?

a good time to remind y’all

MAYA ANGELOU ―the poet laureate, 3 time Grammy winner, National Medal of Arts and Presidential Medal of Freedom honoree― once worked as a SEX WORKER; both as labor and management.

there’s a whole generation of BLACK nanas and aunties that had to do what they had to do to care for our families. sex work isn't just the sex. many Black brothels were social, cultural, health centers for our communities.

true allies stand by all sex workers.
