Just a periodic reminder that it's a good idea to bookmark your favorite artists' sites, sign up for their newsletters, and follow them everywhere you can. (My links are in my profile & pinned post!). Because of the current climate of censorship you never know where we'll get kicked off of next.

Visa is easy but you have to trick the phone tree with Mastercard

1. select option that you have a card
2. select option to for account info
3. press a few random buttons when asked to give ur card, wait until it transfers you to an agent
4. Request to file a complaint abt discriminatory practices
I got through to Mastercard and the supervisor I spoke to said they're actually aware of this, they've received multiple calls and it's been escalated to their global HQ and they're awaiting a response. KEEP CALLING!!

CLARIFICATION :

The Trevor Project's hotline will still be live. But basically this means LGBTQ people can no longer be connected to it through the US national 988 suicide prevention hotline.

They will need to be contacted DIRECTLY

So spread this around

They can be texted. They can be called.

Hello! I am a public librarian. PLEASE do this. Library administrative offices are the exact damn same as any other corporate office: they live and die by written customer feedback. Tell them with your words that Pride matters to you. Please. *Please.*
hey here's something I would love us all to do like RIGHT NOW: find out if your local library is doing any kind of pride programming or display, and if they are, email them to say thank you and why it matters to you. whether or not you're queer. especially if you're in an area where it's fraught

Okay folks. I made a ko-fi for my girl's dental surgery. Long story short, I left my dream job in my career field last June due to physical abuse. I've had a full time job ever since then and I am safe but it doesn't pay well.

Even if you're not an NSFW artist, a porn ban affects you

If you've ever drawn a boob or a butt or a dong or looked at them online, just because the human body is the human body, a porn ban affects you

If you draw creatures, if you draw horror themes, if you draw dark art or robots or furries or

GenAI has polluted image search results, especially for animal pics. It’s now basically impossible to find accurate art references.

Enter this: a repository of open-access, AI-free images of wild & exotic taxa. Artists creating *without AI* have blanket permission for derivative/transformative use.

For anyone who uses Google Suite/Gmail and wants to turn off their fuckin annoying Gemini AI program that harvests your data and reads your emails ("to better assist you!") just go into your admin console and switch it off.

The Met costume collection and the V&A are my go-to sources for historical costume research on my projects, and the Edo kimono collection helped me so much while working on Blue Eye Samurai. Having access to museum archives online is an invaluable resource for artists
