I don't see why it's important for people to say that the price for fursuits or art is "too high."

The only time that would be acceptable is if an artist complaining about not making sales. Then, suggesting they lower the price might be appropriate.

Be careful posting anything on bluesky with the com-word that means exchanging money for art.

You will get a bunch of replies from people with portfolios of wildly varying quality, or even zero art posts at all, whose replies are almost 100% begging for work or self-recommending on similar posts.

Why do some people insist on being super rude when having a disagreement online?

I freely block if someone insults me for disagreement. Life is too short to deal with assholes.

Being short/terse is one thing; there are character limits. Being mean is uncalled for.

If anyone is looking at my skyline because of comments I make about AI, I want to be very clear.

I HATE LLMS.

I THINK THE WORLD WOULD BE BETTER WITHOUT GENERATIVE AI AND THE ALGORITHM.

But AI capabilities are improving at an alarming rate. Assuming they'll "never" do X seems like hubris.

I just saw an Easter ad so it's time to start reminding people: LILIES ARE DEADLY FOR CATS. The leaves, the petals, the stem, even drinking a bit of vase water or licking a few grains of pollen from their fur can cause fatal kidney failure. ⚠️ www.fda.gov/animal-veter....

Is there a good way to curate my feed here so that I see more art and less politics? On the old site I was able to mark that I was not interested in certain kinds of tweets, but I don't know how to do that here. And I don't want to block people en masse

I'm so pissed that you can't get free vaccines for communicable diseases in this country.

We ended up postponing our COVID boosters due to an insurance snafu. Now my husband is sick with covid--testing positive for the first time. I'm convinced the vax & regular boosting kept us safe thus far.

The most important artistic advice I can impart on people is to stop saying self-depreciating things about your work when you show it to people. Break the habit, it’s not funny, it’s not cute, it’s impulsive self-harm we do to try to take away the power other people could have to bruise our egos.
