If Gojo, Shoko and Geto had adopted Tsumiki and Megumi

I would mention that you can make the pocket facing with a small panel of your matching fabric that is visible and the rest in a lighter fabric to reduce bulk. That's a lot of denim layers for comfort.

i don't have the materials for it right now, but someday i think i'd like to make my little guy a custom collar+ replacement A, since the A is printed lopsided on mine and half of it gets lost in a seam

bought some letter charms and found where i’d put my fabric, so l finally made this guy a new collar :)

My favorite neopet, I had the macdonnal stuffed toy as a kid

During its four-year run, Neopets Magazine covered the latest news and strategies for the influential 2000s-era web game. It also had a lot of articles about Neopets merchandise and trading cards. In fact, it’s mostly ads for Neopets products. Or long articles about Neopets lore. At best, it is mostly an off-topic magazine. So why did we focus on this magazine of our archive? Simple: it’s about the game’s audience. Neopets was, arguably, the defining girl game of the 2000s. An entire microgeneration of girls got their start in the world of digital entertainment by raising virtual pets and playing Flash games to get Neopoints. [...] Notably, many of the magazine’s articles are about creativity and customization. There’s shades in here of the gameplay styles that have become more popular in the last decade with the rise of cozy games and farming sims. My favorite quirk of Neopets Magazine is in the audience survey that came with some issues. In one survey question, they asked whether readers bought this magazine at a clothing store! That would have reached a completely different audience than we usually associate with game magazines. Can you imagine PC Gamer being sold at a Charlotte Russe? The point is that Neopets The Official Magazine represents a different slice of gaming culture, one that we know matters to researchers and to our extended community.

I'm gonna go learn the art of hand engraving or thatched roofing. Maybe hand make clogs.

Fuck AI? Good. I agree. Now fucking do something about it. Return to doing human hand crafted things as an act of rebellion! Start knitting, start wood carving, start engraving, whatever the fuck. But most importantly, remember you don't need to be making money doing it to make it worth doing.

Imagine saying this to the Robin Hobb who published her first book while financially struggling as a waitress and post lady with 4 children to take care of alone because her husband was an offshore fisherman in Alaska

has this been done before

Withhold time/resources from organizations building an anti-human future

If you have the gall to make anything with AI, it will be free because it already belongs to me. If you use everyone else's work, it inherently belongs to everyone else from square one. But I won't waste my time on it anyway. I want my stories to be made up and told by real people, because those have worth.

why would you ask us, a narnia blog, this
