@LongCovidPharmD It's hard to choose one, since they seem to build on each other.

A gentle reminder to folks who are new to Mastodon. In solidarity with those in the disabled community who rely on screen readers, we ask that you:

* Add alt text/image descriptions when you post media
* Capitalize the first letter of every word in a hashtag #LikeThis
* Avoid emojis in your display name

UPDATE: So many great questions! Please check the replies to see if your question has been asked and answered ❤️

I'd like to #commission some #art for our @SolarpunkPrompts #podcast !

We are looking for a new logo and a cover image in a #solarpunk genre, licensed under CC-BY-SA license (same as the audio) - and we would love to work with someone from the #mastoart community!

Our budget is $200 dollars for both the (copyrighted) logo and the CC cover.

If you're interested, please respond to this toot publicly or privately with some of your other works! We will be grateful for each share!

Just saw a short fiction market that pays very little also demanding basically every publication right under the sun.

If I'm only expecting to get a pittance for a story, there is no way in hell I'm giving it to someone who can do whatever they want with it forever. That's nuts.

I find a rice cooker very useful. Best thing is, it turns itself off! (I sometimes forget I'm cooking). I've used different rice blends and added different things to the rice.

Note: I have celiac disease, and rice is probably the cheapest gluten-free meal out there.

@cenobyte That... is not right. I mean, I have more of a problem with heat, myself, but to be that uncomfortable? I'm sorry.
@schmutzie Happy birthday, Wade!
