Following the Art Book Fair / Zine Fest Public Sales Transparency doc I started (please add to it!), what are some reasons people are not buying stuff at the art book fair / zine fest? I'll share some ideas and observations in the comments.

Hey, artist! Quote one art to promote yourself!
The image features a stylish, atmospheric noir-style drawing. At the center of the composition is a man in a long dark coat and suit, holding a pistol with a faint puff of smoke coming from the barrel. His face is partially illuminated by a harsh light, creating dramatic shadows. The background is muted, revealing a dark urban setting, likely a street or courtyard with windows and electrical wires. The light reflects off the wet asphalt, adding to the feeling of a rainy night. The overall style of the image is minimalist and graphic, with strong contrasts of light and shadow, reminiscent of the visual aesthetic of comic books or old detective films.

Thank you to the people who have already filled the form! Some interesting answers so far, but it needs more data to draw good conclusions.

If you buy itch bundles - or at least consider them, and have wriggled out of hitting the buy button before, please take a moment to fill this out.

This is your sign btw that you should call Mastercard

Spoke to my source familiar with internal workings at Mastercard. The holiday call campaign re payment processor censorship is working, there is a lot of pressure being felt from your calls. This is resulting in increased response times at a core moment for Mastercard due to the holiday season

PAY authors. Don’t pirate. Use the library or AO3 or any number of other choices that do not pick the pockets of writers.

There is a post circulating on Bluesky encouraging the moving of a frozen turkey straight into a pot of hot oil. We are combating this misinformation the best way we know how - through the power of dance music.

eye

#art #oc #ocsky
A digital portrait of an Asian man tilting his head upwards ever so slightly while holding a red eye above his face, close to his missing eye. He has gray hair and one dark eye that is looking at the camera. His lips are slightly parted and he has a silver piercing on his lower lip. He's dressed in a black nondescript jacket with a white turtleneck and he wears a skull earring. Two of his fingers are prosthetic. The background is dark pink and there's a circle decorating around Su-jin's head, with a small bird sitting on the branch.

Always worth taking a moment to remind you if you’re pirating authors’ book you’re a shitty person. You can rail that our profession isn’t a profession all you want. You can paint yourself as an online revolutionary liberating ideas. It’s all bullshit.

You’re just a shitty person who hates writers.
