I might color it in at some point, idk. They’re drinking boba, faded black to red with black boba, matching outfits, etc. I like the idea of them matching exactly but also the idea of them styling similar clothes slightly differently… thoughts?

the past few days my mind has been consumed by an ongoing story about Bricks and Minifigs, a second hand LEGO store, stealing $200,000 worth of vintage Star Wars LEGO sets from an old man, and using several police departments to illegally obstruct any investigation into it. Police harassment escalated so badly Reckless Ben, the youtuber investigating, was jailed a few times and is now in Mexico. (wikipedia page if you don't want to watch a video)
this story has police corruption across states. healthcare costs. mormons. it feels like a modern day tintin adventure lampooning america. or an episode of south park
here is the gofundme for Bryan, the son of the owner of the stolen LEGO
Poor cousin Tabitha. 😔 I just want to give her a hug… even though I know she’d hate it.
I need to stop replying to “how do you make friends in your 30s?” threads because all my answers boil down to “you have to want to know people instead of have friends” and I don’t think people wanna hear that
It’s like. People can tell if you don’t really like or connect with them. If you aren’t truly enamored with someone you will have a hard time coming up with activities to do together to deepen the friendship. Because you don’t really like that person that much.
Once when I was in undergrad, someone described something as “problematic” in class and our professor was like, “That’s cool, but ‘problematic’ doesn’t really mean anything. It means that the thing you’re describing has a problem, and in and of itself that’s not bad. Art, especially, should always have problems, or else it’s not interesting and not art, either. It sounds like you’re trying to say that this is bad, but you don’t want to say ‘bad.’ Is that right?”
So from then on whenever one of us called something problematic, he would make us talk it out until we could name the “bad” thing we were hinting at. In this particular class, 7/10 it was some type of oppression, and the remainder was like, “I’m uncomfortable because this is very new/confusing/pushing boundaries that made me feel safe.”
Once we stopped calling things “problematic” and stopping at that, class got way more interesting and... we all had to say, like, “that’s racist” or “that’s misogynistic” or “ew capitalism gross” out loud, which a lot of us had never done in a classroom before. Or we had to be like, “Uhhh... I’m not sure what’s so bad?” and confront our own beliefs and that was maybe even more useful.
Anyway. Whenever I see the word problematic, I can’t help but think of this professor being like, “Good starting point, now let’s get specific.” I think when we have to commit to saying “that’s ___” it requires a lot more careful thought about the truth and impact and complexities of whatever we’re claiming. Sometimes there really is some bullshit afoot, and also sometimes it’s art, and it should be full of problems, because that’s what art is.
#'this is present in the text' is often a good first step #but those second and third ones (naming it; describing its function) are vital (via @elucubrare)
As Theodore Sturgeon said, ask the next question.

🌈 Interact-IF 2026 Pride Month: LGBTQ+ Authors & Games 🌈
This June, Interact-IF is bringing back the Pride Month spotlight event—celebrating the incredible LGBTQ+ creators, stories, and communities that make games richer, more diverse, and more meaningful. We're putting together an updated community masterlist of games that are:
✨ Created by LGBTQ+ authors and designers OR
✨ Contain meaningful representation of LGBTQ+ characters, storylines and experiences (exploring themes of gender, sexuality, community, self-discovery, and belonging).
📋 Submission Form: HERE
Creators are welcome to submit:
Released games
Demos/works in progress
A short write-up of how the game contains LGBTQ+ representation or explores relevant themes
After the success of last year's event, we hope this year's masterlist will be even bigger and better! The aim is to help spotlight LGBTQ+ creators and showcase the breadth of LGBTQ+ experiences being explored through games.
We might also reach out to 2-3 authors to do a short written interview as well as post never-before-published interviews from last year's event.
So if you're a creator who's keen on being interviewed for this year's pride month spotlight, do check the box in the google form. Share this post and help us spread the word.
Happy Pride! 🏳️🌈
Finally, do check out some of last year's interviews!

I very genuinely need tumblr to understand that museums are as diverse as historians, egyptologists, archaeologists, and what have you in general. Like from the way people are talking you'd think that only straight white Western men are ever involved in these concepts, because the internet at large just loves to be able to get on their little high horsie about how they are sooo much more morally correcter than the Evil Other
Which is absolutely not a concerning attitude to have, not at all no sir
forgot I'm on the piss on the poor website so I'll spell it out: Western straight white men aren't per definition the Evil Other either
You know where the real danger is? Anti-intellectualism, the concept of moral purity, and opening your damn trap when you don't know shit about fuck
#also our job market is a hellscape and a lot of us aren't wealthy either and neither are our workplaces #many museums especially have SUCH a hard time affording anything rn #the days of museums as institutions and the humanities being a realm of wealth and prestige are well and truly over #this is a field that is being devalued constantly in a world that would love to believe everything important is digital #or about making money #and that's a fucking problem bc the whole thing of museums is that they offer easily accessible education #HOW is the “go to your local library” website so indifferent or even hostile towards museums#academia (via @veilchenjaeger)
