My state is currently proposing a 50% tax on porn. This would wipe out my income. There is a 15.3% self employment tax and onlyfans takes 20%. This would mean if I was tipped $100, my take home would be $15. This isn't a tax, it's a fucking ban.

This is what every game developer sounds like right now.

🚨 BOOST 🚨 Please help her out. One of the people who assaulted her was a Patriot Front Nazi. Of course the cops didn't arrest him, and now she's facing charges and will need legal funding.

SPYRO IS BACK!!! Spyro: A Realm Beyond is coming Spring 2027!!! 🔥

this is highkey just bait but i've had it in the back of my head for too long it should at least be on paper

Sega used genAI to work on Crazy Taxi: World Tour www.resetera.com/threads/15...

an old repost from twitter

If you go to the theatre to consume the slop that is Digital Circus over the next few days, spare a thought for the artists suffering under that horrendous company who burned themselves out to make the slop you're guzzling up This "future of animation" is built on the suffering of artists

Feel as though people will truly never understand his death. He was killed for being an Indigenous Queer Man with a Transgender Partner. Every single one of those signifiers on axis/intersections/marginalizations is extremely important, but it is in tandem all at once not just because he “Gay”.

this game is AI slop. I don't care if they replaced everything, they still used it, still forced their employees to clean it up, and if someone steals once you can't really trust them not to again studios need to understand that AI usage is toxic and our behavior is the only power we have

If you are commissioning an artist, and want a specific pose, don't run to genAI to try and make it for you. Draw a stick person. Stick person poses are beloved among all artists. We can see exactly what you want. Do not fear sending the stick person. The stick person is magical.

To this day this is the only pride month art I've ever done, or ever needed really. 😎 (2022)

Today Microsoft moved all its GitHub copilot subscribers to token-based billing. If you want to see what happens when people have to pay the actual costs of AI, the day is finally here. It's obvious that every customer sees the deep, meaningful value and isn't angry at all.

its his month,

IMPORTANT: For any artists/writers/etc etc, using Linktree to point people to their work, from 5 July, they'll be feeding all imagery you use on your landing page into DALL-E by OpenAI. I deleted my account this morning.

PSA: Bluesky's new auto-tagging moderation stuff is a disaster. Disable it. Go into Settings on the Bluesky site and enable adult content and set everything to Warn at most, which makes posts opt-in. Hide just vanishes posts. Then go into Advanced/Bluesky Mod Service and do the same on everything.

If you have nsfw set to "hide" I implore you to set it to "warn". You still won't see anything except for a blurred post Otherwise once they roll out account-wide adult content labeling a whole lot of people including me are going to disappear from your timelines, even our sfw text posts

Hey, @bsky.app, this sort of moderation is absolutely insane. This is my friend, I just wanted to see what he was up to. You have a huge artist community here who helped grow this site. If you keep this up you’re going to drive us all away. Sort it out.

dear god just saw how an it looks when someone's hit with the account wide adult content warning and it's fucking MISERABLE blurred icon, blurred banner, every single post is hidden, even text posts, and posts that have images require you to hit unhide TWICE for the text and image, fucking nightmare

Heads up ya'll! with Bluesky rolling out moderation crack down in their new update, please consider enabling "adult content" under your moderation tab in settings. Not so you can have porn on your feed, but to ensure that you can still see posts with the word "stupid" and "hell" in it-

bsky too quiet? missing comments? not seeing posts from spicy artists? check your moderation settings and your bsky filters if you haven't configured these before, many of these will be set to hide as defaults

Bluesky says this label will leave in 22 days, so this seems like a punishment for some undisclosed bad behavior.

tl,dr; Scientists no longer allowed to use federal funding to publish, attend meetings, or talk to the public. They cannot collaborate internationally. Grants can be cancelled for any reason, at any time, political appointees have a final say over what gets funded, and who gets funded.

The epidemic of gay bears using gen AI has now spread to the straight bears

The art low is so strong rn

Artists and those who share art. May want to block this bullshit ASAP

take me down to fart city, where the grass is brown and air smells shitty

Today is the last day to comment to the FCC that LGBTQIA2S+ names, stories, identities don't need a warning label. This new potential rulemaking is an attempt at criminalizing the mere fact of being trans or otherwise queer, in the name of discrimination, bigotry, and persecution. Tell them no, now.

the prevalence of AI images sucks in innumerable ways. but it's also given us the ability to feel total elation in knowing when you've found an Extremely Raw Picture that isn't AI, but is in fact a genuine picture of a guy in a Xenomorph suit pouring you a tumbler of vodka

hi i drew furry porn instead of generating it with ai FUCK AI

Deskilling is real. This is the world generative AI peddlers long for, one where people are incompetent without their service. Don't outsource your brain to this shit. You'll regret it.

"Throughout heaven and earth, I alone am the honored one." I wanted to try the same type of render I tried last time with another JJK artwork, this time with my OC >:3 Proud of the result! #furry #art #oc #cat #jjk
