ATTN FELLOW CANADIANS:

An actual MP has created a petition to stop financial discrimination against adult creators by payment processors. You have to confirm your email but thats because its something that can actually be shown to parliament.

Canadians! There is a petition to sign to protest Mastercard and Visa's control over the purchase of legal adult content. This is specifically about the Steam & itchio situation, but language protects adult creators.

but as an artist, i feel like i am left behind, and forgotten

rae @qxqy.bsky.social · Aug 21

i recently joined a private discord server with a lot of activity, a lot of which is reposting art without source and/or going awooga at pretty art of women, and i wonder if the artists know that they are loved.....................i understand the desire for privacy more than ever these days..

rae @qxqy.bsky.social · Aug 21

a friend told me that her friend (who i do not know) loves it when i draw my gf. they get so excited about it in private. im honoured but also -- i had no freaking clue!!!!! these thoughts wouldve been lost to the ether

rae @qxqy.bsky.social · Aug 21

and it's also why places feel so quiet these days!! people dont fucking comment on art anymore! they scream about it to their friends in a priv discord server and the artist doesnt even know that theyre being appreciated

rae @qxqy.bsky.social · Aug 21

i realized why social media feels so curated is partially to amateurs posting exclusively in places where their work Will see traction - reddit, discord servers, and tumblr communities etc

my cloudward ho uquiz result -- extremely accurate, like one of those reads from those vibe uquizzes from 2020 that had me awake at 4am feeling like i was seen

uquiz result: capt. miryam dawderdale. description: for the most part, you live your life responsbily -- but when adventure calls, you're brave enough to answer. steadfast and loyal to your crew, nothing gives you more satisfaction than a job well done, and you do your job well. despite your straight-laced and slightly awkward attitude, you have a big imagination, and the possibility of adventure is both nerve-racking and thrilling. you're modest, but someone as reliable as you is hard to find. you feel a sense of duty to keep the people around you safe, but maybe---just maybe---you could risk it all for a moment of excitement.

i vacillate between phases where i value painting a lot versus those i only seem to get lineart done....whenever a painting phase hits i miss the results from it, but i never really like the feeling of painting

create

------------------
bonus comics:
patreon.com/nhoj

4 panel comic

P1: a right hand draws a wavy stroke on a sketchbook page. A caption box up top reads "draw"

P2: the word "CREATE" dominates a panel with a black background, forming in the negative space. Various small shapes surround it.

P3: a lone simplified humanoid figure is on the bottom right of a another panel with a black background. A thought bubble forms above their head, the words "if not for others, then at least for yourself" within.

P4: The Earth dominates the bottom of the panel, with a sliver of space above it. Clouds swirl and boil across the Earth, which is the only element on the entire page coloured a pink-red. A caption box above reads "now, more than ever"

ITS HERE! My mini zine for my strawberry milk zine! Best part: they won’t spoil in your fridge because it’s made of paper!

troubledminnesotan.bigcartel.com/product/stra...

A hand with black nail polish on the thumb holds a mini zine over a plant. The cover has a tiny gremlin human holding onto a large strawberry as it splashes into pink milk

The hand holds the open zine over plants.
PAGE ONE
panel 1: cut up the strawberries into small pieces.
Panel 2: (You can sneak a few bites, I won’t judge)
Panel 3: Then put the goods into the blender in this order: 1. Strawberries 2. Vanilla 3. Milk. And then add as much honey as you want for sweetness.

PAGE 2
Panel 1: then blend it together until it’s somewhat smooth, no lumps. This may take a few minutes.
Panel 2: pour into a cute glass.
Panel3: then enjoy!

Getting back into the swing of things. I'm inexplicably happy with how this panel turned out.
