Oh Heck Yeah! I'll Def Sign Up, This Is A Pretty Interesting Event :0

I was getting pretty fed up with links and generators with very general and overused weapons and superpowers and what have you for characters so:

Here is a page for premodern weapons, broken down into a ton of subcategories, with the weapon’s region of origin. 

Here is a page of medieval weapons.

Here is a page of just about every conceived superpower.

Here is a page for legendary creatures and their regions of origin.

Here are some gemstones.

Here is a bunch of Greek legends, including monsters, gods, nymphs, heroes, and so on. 

Here is a website with a ton of (legally attained, don’t worry) information about the black market.

Here is a website with information about forensic science and cases of death. Discretion advised. 

Here is every religion in the world. 

Here is every language in the world.

Here are methods of torture. Discretion advised.

Here are descriptions of the various methods used for the death penalty. Discretion advised.

Here are poisonous plants.

Here are plants in general.

Feel free to add more to this!

Hey everyone, I know it's going to be a busy day for a lot of people, but Google enrolled everyone over 18 into their AI program automatically.

If you have a google account, first go to gemini.google.com/extensions and turn everything off.

Then you need to go to myactivity.google.com/product/gemini and turn off all Gemini activity tracking. You do have to do them in that order to make sure it works.

Honestly, I'm not sure how long this will last, but this should keep Gemini off your projects for a bit.

I saw this over on bluesky and figured it would be good to spread on here. It only takes a few minutes to do.

If you're reading this...

go write three sentences on your current writing project.

Can you keep a secret??

Sh.... It'll be a surprise!

Ughhh this took SO long to do, I hate myself and my computer and my life but I'm satisfied with this piece, fair trade off ig? Idfk.

Version w/o all the effects:

I tried my hand at digital painting with this one, it's ok,,, I guess,,,, like I like it, but it's not that impressive,, whatevs :)

HELPPPP BROO

Not a character per se, but the ENTIRE star trek franchise. Not joking the 90's shows were queer as hell, with so many characters having queer themes (sadly few were openly gay/lesbian/bi/pan/ace cause STUDIOS but a lot of subtle AND heavily implied representation!) and I thank them for my current ideologies surrounding life.

Though to isolate it to one, Garak from DS9. He was HEAVILY implied to be gay.

What was the first canon queer character y’all saw on TV or in film?

Mine was Carol from friends (Ross’s ex wife)

Santa is on strike due to global warming.  All presents this year will be delivered by Sasha the Christmas Tiger.  Milk and cookies may not be sufficient.

In case it is not clear, I have NO idea how to draw Captain Janeway, but I tried.

This was also a style test, I was seeing if I could draw in a more realistic style, which I think worked quite well! At least for post-S7 Janeway.

Might redraw this later, who knows.

Can agree, this would be such a wild ride of a story and I'd LOVE to read it

Your church-going, God-worshipping sister adopted a small child and you’re excited to see them. But when you do, the child is a menace. They’re throwing things everywhere, setting furniture on fire with seemingly nothing, chanting in Latin to summon demons, but the weirdest thing is that your sister doesn’t seem to mind.

in light of israel's looming invasion on rafah, south africa implored the icj to call for the protection of palestinians with new preliminary orders. the icj denied this request, insisting that its january orders would be sufficient enough in ensuring the safety of people residing in rafah.

we have all seen how israel responded to the icj verdict earlier this month. they have all but intensified their attacks on palestinians, their favorite of whom seem to be children. this will end in a bloodbath. palestinians, already malnourished and living in literal tents, will be bombarded, they will be shot, they will be slaughtered. and when i say palestinians, a lot of them are actual toddlers. the videos coming out of this are proof enough.

at this point, it has been made amply clear that palestinians will never experience safety in their own homeland. a lot of the families in gaza are trying to raise funds to get out of it, because there's nowhere left to go.

there is nowhere left to go. if these people don't get the funds necessary to escape, they will die.

it's vital that you go to operation olive branch's spreadsheet, choose a family that resonates with you, and donate as much as you can to their gofundme. every last dollar counts. one dollar could be the difference between life and death for a family. please don't fall victim to the bystander effect. your contribution counts, however little it may be. and whether you're able to donate or not, spread this to as many people as you can. each second we stay silent is a second an entire family is brutally massacred.
