Feeling under the weather today (got a cough ToT), so I'm gonna take it easy today. I've figured out a concept for my Valentine's Drawing at least, so tomorrow will be sprite work time!

jack asked if i would sketch up a poster to tell people in nearby neighborhoods about the partnership between flock and ring, and this is what i came up with. it can be printed on an 8.5x11 sheet of paper.
![YOUR RING CAMERA IS AN ICE AGENT
[a drawing of a ring camera with an ice agent dragging a person away in its field of vision]
"In October of 2025, Amazon's Ring announced its partnership with FLOCK, an A.I. surveillance group that freely shares its footage with ICE, the secret service, and the navy. Flock customers can use A.I. tools to sift through footage to assist in all manner of operations (like raids and deportations) without a warrant. Unplug Ring! Melt ICE! Protect your neighbors!

I think I'm really good at writing action scenes. I'm good at describing movements while keeping up a fast pace. If nothing else, I find them fun to write, so hopefully that's a good sign. I hope to showcase this more at some point in the future ^^
Artists, I think we're all too comfortable sharing our imposter syndrome.
I would love to see you step out of your comfort zone and confidently state what you think you're actually really good at.
No self deprecation, just what you think you're the strongest at
Is anyone brave eniough? 👀

I think its fucking crazy that Grok is actively generating deepfakes and csam as we speak but if I want to commission a nsfw painting of two fictional characters and pay it through paypal I could get myself and the artist banned from the site. Like honestly, fuck all of this.

We're not in theoretical "they could come after sfw queer content LATER" territory anymore. It is being used to come after sfw queer content NOW.
Spread this around, send the article to any and every news outlet/content creator you can think of. The alarms need to be sounded
