yeah apparently
the devs keep refusing to kick transphobes and neonasiz off their site, while taking down stuff like transphobia moderation lists and stuff like that
(the ceo responded to this by *posting pictures of waffles* apparently.)

I’m probably missing a lot of details, but that’s the bulk

maybe I’ll keep mirroring what I post there here for the time being, but if anything else bad comes to light abt bluesky I’ll probably just leave here alltogether

I technically already had one, but I've never used it. I plan on changing that!

I'm gonna try posting more here, plus posting all the songs I ask people to make for me for projects that I would otherwise post on sc here too

also plus, I already have an (incredibly underutilized) account there, so there’s that too

k so, with all this stuff coming to light abt the bluesky devs being shitty people, I think I’ll probably jump ship to newgrounds(?)

I know some friends of mine have already made the jump, and the website seems to be better for art, so…?

Good :) because if it can't exist without proper pay and permissions it shouldn't exist

Nick Clegg says asking artists for use permission would ‘kill’ the AI industry

Fuck Gavin Newsom. I will never vote for him and you shouldn't either.

Excerpt from an article discussing LGBT+ protections in California legislation. It states that Governor Newsom neither signed nor vetoed certain bills. One bill strengthened protections under Sen. Scott Wiener’s “State of Refuge” law. The highlighted portion reads: “At least four bills directly addressed trans protections,” followed by examples such as healthcare and patient confidentiality, streamlining legal name and gender changes, nondiscrimination in health insurance, and inclusive homelessness programs.

really awesome that there's legit just no online safe space for trans people en masse. it feels like every single time one is *about* to be, the mod team bends over backwards to protect the people who hate us and something fucking stupid like this happens

BSky hid @asukafield.xyz's transphobia mod list. 🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩

Blue Sky's interface for hidden moderation lists, saying the following: "This list, created by @asukafield.xyz , contains possible violations of Bluesky's community guidelines in its name or description." Offered choices are to unsubscribe or go back.

for funzies I also made element symbols for every element currently in/alluded to in deltarune cuz why not

#deltarune #elements

all the elements from deltarune (rude, cat, star, copy, blade, heart, chaos, music, puppet, jewel, wind, ice, steel, fight, order, puzzle, water, elec, fire, scythe, death, rabbit, smell, holy, red, frog, luck, light, mouse, thunder, dust, color, virus, and spirit). they all have symbols representing themselves, like rude being the rude buster bullets, copy being a symbol reminiscent of shuttah's hand-eye, chaos being one of jevil's birds, dark being a titan eye, death being a broken heart, holy being a halo with wings like the angel, red being the red buster bullets, color being reminiscent of swatch's buttons, virus being a bacteriophage (homage to a scrapped deltarune enemy, and spirit being one of the spirit flames.

"true" eram design idea that came to me the other day

#deltarune #eram #chapter3 #secretboss #kris

designs of what eram from deltarune might look like outside of the sword route, although this isn't a prediction. their first form is amorphous and clothlike, being able to shape shift from a design that resembles their original form to a few other ideas, like a more raglike design, a fire breathing winged octopus, and a form with hands. eyes can appear throughout it's body like sewn together cuts. it's true form resembles kris much more heavily, with it's mouth where kris' face would be and their mantle mirrored. they weild the sword from the original game cuz why the fuck not. the top right depicts a scene of kris and eram swordfighting.

a very simple sprite of seam based on toby's sketch of them that I'm nonetheless very proud of

it's not much, but at least it's something deltarune related I can post lol

#deltarune #seam #pixelart #spriteart

a sprite of seam from deltarune in the pose they're in in the doodle toby did to flesh out their design. they're paired up with jevil for this drawing, showcasing the size difference between the two.
