CREEPY CUTIES is LIVE!

My 6th hard enamel pin project just launched today! It's for lovers of "creepy" pets like snakes, rats, spiders, isopods, and the like.

If you back the project in the first 48 hours you can get discounted rates, free stickers, AND (for backers at 3+ pins) a free glow-in-the-dark mini pin!

Plus there's a fun twist for the stretch goals: YOU the backer get to choose what unlocks when via polls!

And if you love body horror, be sure to check out my Pintopia 2024 collab partner's campaign too. If you back both our projects for a physical reward, you'll get TWO extra pins FREE! Click their banner below:

We're both over 60% funded in the first 2 hours. This is Oleander's first pin project ever and my first in 3 years, so I'm really hoping these both make it. 🙏 Neither of us can afford fancy videos or ad campaigns, so it would mean the world if you could spread the word!

More good news!! So far we've unlocked:

And as of time of writing this, it's only $51 away from unlocking the Blue-Tongued Skink pin too!! Will you help us push that over the edge?

Also, I've just announced my plan for what to do once all 11 pets are unlocked: colorways! AKA alternate versions, these might include morphs like the blue rat, mojave GHI ball python, bumblebee millipede, Panda King isopod, albino superconda hognose, aberrant stripe Cali kingsnake, and more!

Pledge to CREEPY CUTIES today to see these and more become real pins!

You know, that Mythbusters post legitimately changed my life. Before seeing it, I had exponentially more guilt and stress about not being able to sleep, which of course, further exacerbated my inability to sleep.

Now, every time I wake up about three am, knowing I have to get up at 6.45, instead of stressing and panicking about how my day is going to be sleep deprived and miserable, I just tell myself 'Time to activate Mythbusters Protocol' and lie there with my eyes closed safe in the knowledge that I am measurably reducing later feelings of exhaustion.

And when this happens, about 70% of the time the reduction of guilt and stress means I actually do fall back asleep, so all in all instead of getting only three or four hours sleep, I get five to six and a half.

Which y'know, major improvement in health and energy.

On a related note, that post also opened up the world of naps for me. I used to think that napping was mostly pointless for me, because I'm pretty much incapable of falling fully asleep in the middle of the day. But when I redefined naps to include "lying down with my eyes shut for an hour," even if I just spent the whole time brainstorming fanfiction, that was often enough to get me from "exhausted and running on 4 hours of sleep" to energized and refreshed

Drew this a while back, but I'm obsessed with them

M-M-Magiiiiiiiic~ I should do more of those, they were fun to draw.

Maybe Caduceus

Hey you should go here and get yerself a creepy critter pin or three, there's only an hour left! I got my eye on the rubber ducky isopod and the jumping spider 👀👀

I'm vibrating at the thought of getting to see what Essek was up to before he met the Nein!!

Apparently my favorite picture books as a child were written by queer authors.  This brings me joy.

I regret to inform you that Discord's new Terms of Service includes an arbitration clause. You can find it here https://discord.com/terms/#16. This clause includes an opt-out, which I have transcribed here:

You can decline this agreement to arbitrate by emailing an opt-out notice to arbitration-opt-out@discord.com within 30 days of April 15, 2024 or when you first register your Discord account, whichever is later; otherwise, you shall be bound to arbitrate disputes in accordance with the terms of these paragraphs. If you opt out of these arbitration provisions, Discord also will not be bound by them.

These clauses are underhanded ways that corporations seek to deprive you of your right to participate in class-action lawsuits and your right to a jury trial. (This does only apply to us users ,other people still spread the word though )

#whats arbitration someone help me

Bad news, @noodelzmop. Arbitration basically means that if you want to sue Discord for whatever reason, the dispute needs to be handled in house. Specifically, in their house. If you don't get this email out, you're basically signing away your right to legal recourse if they do criminally shitty stuff to you, like with the McDonalds app.

I have been told that emailing "I am confirming that as of the date of this email, I am choosing to opt out of binding arbitration to settle disputes with Discord." With the Email you used for your discord account is enough for the notice but take this with a grain of salt as this was not said by a lawyer

reiterating that this only applies to US users

THIRTY DAY LIMIT BTW. I suggest taking sixty seconds to fire off a quick email with op’s recommended text. I have no plans to sue discord but better safe than sorry

Growth capitalism is a deranged fantasy for lunatics.

Year 1, your business makes a million dollars in profit. Great start!

Year 2, you make another million. Oh no! Your business is failing because you didn't make more than last year!

Okay, say year 2 you make $2 mil. Now you're profitable!

Then year 3 you make $3 mil. Oh no! Your business is failing! But wait, you made more money than last year right? Sure, but you didn't make ENOUGH more than last year so actually your business is actively tanking! Time to sell off shares and dismantle it for parts! You should have made $4 mil in profit to be profitable, you fool!

If you're not making more money every year by an ever-increasing exponent, the business is failing!

Absolute degenerate LUNACY

Some poow widdow twyhawd got his neo-nazi feewings huwt by this post and the poor little moron sent me a few hate mail asks.

Son, if you want adults to take you seriously, start by learning some basic grade-school level geopolitics, such as the fact that Russia hasn't been Communist in decades and has had a capitalist economic system for probably longer than your dumbfuck child ass has been alive.

That's right, dipshit, Russia IS the authoritarian capitalist hellhole you think you want to live in because you're a delusional pissbaby who thinks he's really just a temporarily-inconvenienced billionaire instead of a dumb broke bitch.
