Inspired by @kayr0ss 's AU Wolfish Behavior, but is not a scene from the fic! Just me playing around with the concept

Anyway she's just a little baby, she wanted to play outside 🥺

Please have a moment of silence for the people who were killed instead of freed when news of emancipation finally reached the furthest corners of the american south.

have another moment for the ledgers, catalogs, and records that were burned and the homes that were destroyed to hide the presence of very much alive and still enslaved people on dozens of plantations and homesteads across the south for decades after emancipation.

and have a third moment for those who were hunted and killed while fleeing the south to find safety across the border, overseas, in the north and to the west.

black people. light a candle, write a note to those who have passed telling them what you have achieved in spite of the racist and intolerant conditions of this world, feel the warmth of the flame under your hand, say a prayer of rememberance if you are religious, place the note under the candle, and then blow it out.

if you have children, sit them down and tell them anything you know about the life of oldest black person you've ever met. it doesn't have to be your own family. tell them what you know about what life was like for us in the days, years, decades after emancipation. if you don't know much, look it up and learn about it together.

This is Juneteenth.

not with herself though. with mira

she’ll come up to mira and be like “got another one for you babe” and show her the video, and mira, without fail, will say “thats the dumbest shit ive ever seen. give me a [insert exact, and ultimately correct, estimate of how long it will take for her to learn the dance here]” and once she’s done zoey will film her and upload the two videos side by side

this started as a way to appease zoey, but mira genuinely started enjoying doing them at some point

on a few occasions this has even lead to an in person collab with the original person in which they do the dance together

If you read the link the company does of course say they’re replacing the existing forums with new ones, and I’m sure no one would say the old ones didn’t perhaps need a lil bit of a glow up, some tech debt fixing… but there’s a few key notes in there:

They are NOT carrying over any history, data messages etc. from the old forums

They are NOT archiving, retaining or in any way saving the existing forums in any way

They have NOT provided any reasoning past ‘as part of continued efforts to support developers’

As an offhand, moderate read, this sounds to me like a desire for some change in the forums but deciding nuking everything is less expensive than rebuilding and carrying over info.

If I’m cynical, and likely realistic? Probably to increase sales of their latest GameMaker software by making it inherently more difficult for someone getting the older software for cheap pushing it to its limits. The amount of institutional knowledge on those forums is absurd.

And even if it is a benign reason, it’s still terrible because what do you mean you’re doing this with no recourse or potential for change? You sell software that runs on community goodwill? In an era where people are pulling away to open source software?? Crazy.

There are yeeeaaars of answers, plugins, suggestion, community built up on those forums - I’ve used the em to learn and grow my own skillet!!! And soon it won’t exist.

At the very least, they gave a ‘heads up’ - the deletion occurs mid December, so archiving by the community is possible from now. It’s just absurd that it needs to happen in the first place.

Director: I need you two to pretend to argue with each other.

Rumira: What?

Director: Do it, we need a little drama

Rumi, to Mira: You! You...are...SO pRETTY and sMART. Urgh!

Mira: And you! You are the— most beautiful woman in the world!

Rumi: *gets offended*

Director, looks at Zoey: ...Why did that insult her?

And now, when I find myself making the mistake of going on Instagram, I get to see trans men themselves talking about how historically, trans men didn't do anything for the community, and so we need to step up now. Which, first of all, that isn't true, but second of all, if trans men's contributions are lesser, that makes a lot of sense if we listen to that trans woman talking about the trans men she was in community with back in the day. It's very hard to advance the trans cause if you're not alive.

I was thinking about how each of the Huntrix girls sleep, and decided to doodle out my personal takes on them 👇👇👇

starfish zoer ofc🙏 (with her forever mismatched socks)

Mira is a cutie pie when sleeping, if she’s comfy she has a happy face and latches onto the nearest soft object🤏🤏🤏

Rumi purrs🤯 shocker ik💯 but I also like to imagine her having a scrunched up little mad face in her sleep, like this kinda👇
