Digital painting of Mani, a cinereous vulture headed Persian trans man, walking by a grey brick wall with barbed wire and a with the looming tower of Big Ben behind the wall. The wall has a CCTV Camera watching Mani and it shows red square 'identifyers' on Mani, first square is on his head that shows his brain, second square is on his chest which shows mammary glands stylised like targets, and last square is on his crotch that shows a uterus with teeth. Behind the wall shows the Great Clock of Westminster (Big Ben) as it looms over Mani. The sky is ambiguosly night or day and there are clouds that circle around the sun (or moon) which is behind Big Ben. The perspective gives the impression that the sun, the clock tower, and the camera are all watching Mani.

Mani is wearing a black trenchcoat and pants and is wearing nazar bracelet on his left hand. He has a frightened and nervous expression as he is looking behind the elements that are watching him.

A blue toned scenic painting of part of a sitting room with Setar, a Iranian transmasc man, sleeping on the couch in the left corner as a red flesh effigy, a tall humanoid meat monster with a beak-like face, watches over him. The sitting room has: a blackish blue dinner table in the foreground with four plates and five seats, a large glass window door leading to the outside (which is a small yard with a black pool), two blue carpets in front of the door and under the table, a blue clock with many hours yet no hands on one of the walls, a singular lamp light from the ceiling, and blue and red childish hand paintings on the wall by setar that include: handprints, animals, flowers, human and effigy figures, rainbow and sun.

Digital painting of Shiny the Pigeon Wizard floating in space in between a hot pink sun at the bottom and a light violet moon at the top as he is wielding a wand with a 'star in crescent' design that summons a pink Space vulture. Shiny is a anthro Rock Dove with grey-blue head and tail feathers, orange eyes, pink scaly legs and arms with no wings, and a small feather crest on his head. He wears a black jumpsuit with blue toned star, space, and cloud patterns, and he wears a dark blue cloak that also has starry patterns. Shiny has a happy goofy expression as he summons the space vulture

A digital ref sheet of the character Demi the Demiraptor. Demi is a anthro dark brown microraptor/deinonychus hybrid. He has black feathers on his inner face, chest, belly, inner thighs and neck, purple feathers for his wings, ankles, and two long feathers at the end of his tail, tan scales for his mouth, arms, and legs, and yellow eyes and teeth. He goes by he/they/it pronouns.

Top row shows a front, back, and side view of Demi. There are annotations that show different parts of his appearance, such as having a beauty spot on his left side of his face on his cheek, buck teeth, a overbite, and scruffy feathers with his head feathers being especially so.

I know we all love this man, but make sure to genuinely carry his message in your heart: you can always reject a false premise. There are almost always more than two choices.

RIP to Drew Struzan, the artist behind the iconic posters for so many classic Hollywood movies of the 70s and 80s

I can't pick a favorite, so I'll go with his unforgettable one sheet for 'John Carpenter's The Thing', a perfect poster for a perfect film, one I didn't know it was his until today 📽️

This is "debanking", and its a problem that has plagued sex workers for decades. It isnt right when its targetting sex workers and its not right when its targetting game devs and creators either.

Give paypros and your givt reps your grievances and demand that debanking of adult content stop

Per Reddit: Steam adult developer in the UK is sitting on a USD equivalent of six figures, can’t find a bank to take his money because the developer creates adult games

I develop adult video games on Steam. I can't find a bank that will actually let me withdraw my money from Steam. Can I get some advice?
Game has sold quite well on Steam. I've got almost £90,000 ready to withdraw after Steam's cut + VAT taken off.

However, it's been 2 months now and I can't find ANY bank in the UK who will let me withdraw my money from Steam.

I've been banned/refused/unable to get a business account with:

Wise
Revolut
Monzo
Monese
Chase
Starling
Nationwide
Halifax
Barclays
Lloyds
RBS

It always comes down to, "Where did you get this money from?"

"It's coming from games I sell on Steam."

"Can we see the store page?"

"Sure."

"I'm sorry, we can't do business with you at this time."

It keeps coming down to a commercial decision purely because I make adult content.

What the hell am I supposed to do? I've pretty much exhausted the whole banking system. I just want to be able to be paid for products I've sold.

Y'know what I gotta ask. To any science fiction writer that has AI characters (like HAL 9000 or Shodan), how do you fare with the current culture surrounding AI? Is there any misinterpretations you try and avoid? Does GenAI impact how you write said characters?
