I am not super jazzed about starting to offer commissions this way but my kitty had kidney stones removed suddenly and I'm kinda stressed about the price

If anyone would like some pay what you want sketches, I'll link to a doc below dm me for more info

Live to talk to your friends. Live to get excited about a new release. Live to be able to take naps. Live to spite the state. Live to watch a 7 hour essay about a game you haven't even played. Live just because you can. Live just because you want. It doesn't matter the why, just live.

Honestly, the best way to make an artist’s day is by being very specific about what you like about a piece. Geek out a lil. Gush over how they use line, color, texture. Every mark is layed down by the artist, so if you can connect with those little moments, it helps the artist feel seen.

cancelling Disney+ and Hulu is well and good but it’s not a huge hit on an individual level

but Disney adults? people who spend real money at the parks? you guys can make a dent, call ‘em up and tell them your vacation is postponed until they pull their heads out of their asses

River_Tam @rivertam.bsky.social · 24d

Heard from a friend at Disney+ that there are multiple levels of freakout internally, both from internal dissatisfaction, concerns about subscription cancelations, and of course the big one: concern about a boycott spilling over into parks and cruises.

it’s a curse

two drawings, the first one is the artist with the tabley on, a smirk on their face saying ‘finally friday, now I can finally draw’. The second is the same artist with their face down on the table, ‘no energy’ written on top

“Oh did I see you posting A.I?

Instant unfollow

Are you trying to argue with me about it?

Instant block”

There is a small cartoon portrait of myself, a round-faced Asian guy with round glasses and short hair, saying, “I’m just not that patient.”

Every single damn time there’s a “no porn” bill being introduced, they always add this.

That’s why we implore to the anti-sex crowd that the bills are rarely just about that, it will consider lgbtq+ in general as pornography because it’s “unnatural” to their Christo-fascist ideas.

Dieselbrain @dieselbrain.bsky.social · 26d

The bill also includes a section that takes aim at transgender individuals by prohibiting material "that includes a disconnection between biology and gender by an individual of 1 biological sex imitating, depicting, or representing himself or herself to be of the other biological sex."

I simply cannot stress it enough.

You cannot sit this out.

They are coming for EVERYTHING. No media, no creators are safe under these policies. They want us poor, they want us criminalized, they want us disenfranchised.

Call paypros. Call your reps. Do SOMETHING.

Woke up to quite the update on this. I had been in contact with Payment Cloud about getting their service and they waited until now to hit me with the image below. Again, stringing me along instead of being upfront. They had seen my website multiple times before this.

An image taken from an e-mail from Payment Cloud to me. They list prohibited adult work, one of which just includes "Fantasy" which is as wide as cat ears and fairies. We are so cooked.

Because some people haven't heard it yet: PAYPAL IS NOT A BANK, DO NOT LEAVE MORE THAN A COUPLE HUNDRED DOLLARS SITTING IN YOUR ACCOUNT AT ANY TIME. MOVE IT TO YOUR BANK ACCOUNT IMMEDIATELY.

Paypal can and will close your account and steal all your money without warning. And have done MANY times.

If you're using AI to write essays, eulogies, a text to your wife, I do think less of you as a person. Ceding your mental and creative abilities to a machine is an embarrassing thing and people should be ashamed to admit doing it in public.

$[quoting a tweet by fractalcounty that reads, “today I learned that there are actual people irl who get genuinely upset if they catch you using chatgpt. like they view it as a serious moral failing in certain circles”]$
