This is why it's so important if you're a white guy creative to be explicit in your progressive beliefs. Don't just NOT post this bullshit, you need to actually say progressive things. Because white guys being conservatives is the rule, so you need to distinguish yourself as the exception

I myself am an ibuprofen girlie but I'll defend my acetaminophen sisters forever

Wee donkey.

This morning I am doing what I love most (getting bogged down for hundreds of words explaining something that happened in the 19th century while trying to write a story about a consumer phenomenon of the past five years)

if you really want to stick it to Disney, and other corporate media giants, become fascinated by things they would never produce, so that they might fade into the background noise of life.

Mermaid, staying out of the storm

Look. I'm not mad you bought a Kimmel picture book. But marginalized creators are getting banned and death threats and harassed all the time. It'd be neat to show them that wallet solidarity.

Since many of us are cancelling streaming services, now might also be a good time to support writers and artists. Times are extremely tough for creatives, so why not buy a book, commission an art piece, sign up for a Patreon, tip your favorite creators. Everything helps.

if spindlehorse ever decides to get into publishing and make hellaverse spinoff books/comics I swear my resume will be in someone's inbox in .2 seconds. artists unionizing, you love to see it

Editor: can we set this meeting for 9am? Me:

nobody wants video essays anymore. all the money’s in illuminated manuscripts these days. you can write any manuscript at all – a terrible one! it doesn’t matter! some startup will still jump in your emails begging to partner with you and get it illuminated

STAMPEDE!!!

a reminder to all my romance folks, card processors have moved on from block payments to sex workers to blocking payments to NSFW artists. we are absolutely a part of this fight.

one of my favorite historical figures from the period 💖 including the full le Brun portrait here (I believe Olympe is actually the center figure in pink) because everyone needs to see the rendering on that blue taffeta dress. So iridescent!

yayyy it's my birfday :3 🎈

there is a certain irony around tech bros who believe that the work of writers is largely worthless, while also claiming at the same time that they desperately need to use that written work - without compensating human authors - so they can make a bazillion dollars off LLM products.

Surprise, it's a cover reveal! Thank you @kholbatar.bsky.social for making my dreams come true. Thank you everyone for waiting. Thank you for signing up for the backerkit campaign. This book is going to kick ass & kiss women, & it's full of both www.backerkit.com/call_to_acti... #bookbazaar25 #📢📚

spent four hours last night trying and failing to write a single sentence oh man I love LITERATURE *kool-aid man's myself through the wall*

Being a first reader (or slush reader, whichever term you like) was really valuable training for both my writing, editing, and sense of self-esteem. Highly recommended for burgeoning writers with a little free time

i don't usually work with a lot of green so this was actually a lot of fun 💚✨ time to start something new! twitch.tv/kandaem #art #oc

Not to post propaganda for Big Extrovert but acting classes are actually the best quickest way to feel like a person again. The healing power of strangers being silly together in the name of Art is unmatched

when you submit your writing to a magazine, agent, small press, etc, you are not asking for a referendum on the quality of your work but rather an assessment of your compatibility with the sensibility of another literary professional

They just want to conquer a thing like always. They don't give a fuck about anyone who built it, they just want to say they did/can

went to the aquarium yesterday in a bus crammed with punks and got off a stop too early because we didn't know there was an MCR concert happening and just assumed 100 little alt gay people were also going to the aquarium (there were in fact many punks at the aquarium)

just had to explain the jd vance couch fucker meme to my wife, this was the first time she'd ever heard about it. I yearn to take a vacation in her mind

I have to believe in a future where cool freak artist types can make all the cool freak art they desire I HAVE to believe in a future for US!!!!!!!!
