An image labeled "HELP A TRANS WOMAN GET TO SAFETY! again!" showing an arrow going from a burning American flag to a Canadian maple leaf, with the American flag labeled "HahaohmygodwhatisgoingonisanyonegonnnapUTTHATFIREOUTBEFOREWEALLBURNOHGODFUCKNO" and the Canadian maple leaf is labeled "Kind & Reasonable Neighbors?". There's also a drawing of me with a single tear coming from my eye, shrugging and saying "I'm in danger!" with a weak smile.

I was trying to make an Undertale fanart for today, but looks like it won't be feasible...

Anyone knows how to bully Youtube?

Because I've gotten real sick of their autotranslating bullshit.

🎃 Pumpkin Teapot 🎃- Waitlist FULL! @cloverteapot.bsky.social · Sep 3

This is Perci, he is almost 15! Perci is an elderly black cat who has been facing several health issues, and needs to be fed prescription food as well as other medicine.

If you can spare a change, I've set his tipjar on my ko-fi page. Any amount is greatly appreciated ❤️

ko-fi.com/cloverteapot/

Perci is a senior black cat. He's been with me for almost 15 years and I hope he'll stay around many more years.

Perci has been struggling with his health since his partner (Artizinha) died of cancer. Her death took a toll on him and he slowly deteriorated, until he gave me a big health scare last year.

He is currently underweight and struggling to put some kilos on him, all of the money here will go towards his prescription food, medicine, and wellbeing

Thank you very much, Perci & Clover.

Saw this on a friend’s page and decided to repost. Being a friend really means stepping up behind the scenes at times like this.

And please don’t dismiss their concerns by trying to reassure them it’s all OK - just allow people the space to be worried, scared, whatever.

Image saying: Small request - check on your non-white/ non-British friends living in the UK, plz (I don't mean me).
The rise of the fascists is pretty fucking awful right now and resilience is feeling much harder.
Every flag on a lamp post, every comment section peppered with reform morons and just a general rising tension and feeling of "you're not welcome here" is probs making a lot of us feel unsafe right now.
Just reach out to someone to see if they want to talk about it, or if they need some support.
It is really fucking grim right now, and it's easy for people to feel alone and isolated at times like this.
Check on your mates

Been a year. Time to repost this.

YOUR PORTFOLIO CRIT
THINGS I'D TELL YOU IF I WERE LOOKING AT YOUR WORK IN PERSON
1 Violating the 180 degree rule makes this sequence hard to follow
2 A few more incidental overlaps will make this foreshortening clearer
3 Symmetrical compositions with a character dead center imply an important moment. Don't draw every panel like that?
4 This __ looks kind of fake. Take the time to look at reference instead of just making it up
5 An establishing shot will help the reader understand where this takes place.
6 Find a life-drawing session to attend, or practice from photos online.
7 Show these pages to someone who doesn't know the story and ask them to tell the story back to you.
8. Nudge this part over a bit to eliminate that tangency.
9 You flattened out the depth by rendering the foreground, middle ground, & background with the same values. Create depth and direct the eye by organizing them into overlapping planes of light & dark.
10 there are better ways to use your time than rendering every brick.
11 these characters look like they're floating (or falling). Draw figures and bg from the same eye level.
12 Unless this will be a wordless comic, leave more room for the lettering

Bex Ollerton @schnumn.bsky.social · Aug 20

My surgery recovery is going OK, all things considered, but I had to buy a bunch of stuff (and still need to buy more) and it's quite expensive 😭 😭so I'm opening sketch commissions to try and recoup some costs! Please share this around 😭🙏
Examples below!

forms.gle/pzkwQ2VTSVnT...

A drawing of Bex in surgery recovery mode. She's lay on her bed with a bunch of expensive recovery stuff she had to buy: a back pillow, an ankle elevation cushion, a water bottle, a heat pad, an ice pack, and crutch cushions.

The text reads, "September Surgery Recovery Sketches. I'm opening £30 Sketches commissions to buy surgery recovery equipment!"

Bonus fact: it's actually my right leg that's busted, I thought they were doing my left when I drew this and found out the day before that they were actually operating on my right OOPS. So the drawing is the wrong way around haha

useful!!!

bonus for GN artists: book pubs are different! ask for specs/page templates/literally anything they can give you as early as possible :')

Nate Piekos of Blambot @blambot.bsky.social · Aug 20

Artists working in mainstream USA comics: Marvel, DC, Dark Horse, Image, etc. all expect art to these dimensions. I'm seeing more and more disregard for the standard specs, and it affects everyone's deadlines to have production try and wrestle your art into proper proportions.

If we survived colonialism, we can survive it again.
Fight against 🅰️👁️ till our last breath

MariEsposeets @mariesposeets.bsky.social · Aug 18

And now a thought from a wise frog:

Frog says: GenAi has a lot in common with colonialism: it’s based on stolen labor, it steals original culture and reduces it to mind-rotting slop, it devastates the environment (pollutes air, wastes water, and accelerates climate disasters), the data centers steal and ruin land, and it makes white-supremacist and anti-queer billionaires richer. No wonder right-wing, conservative losers love it.
