Not only is ai absolute garbage but it’s also an important skill to learn where and how to get your references from, that work for you, your art and your voice I like to take random pics when I’m out This little photo gives so much! Amazing fence Solid cloud and light Random clutter

NEW: Wikipedia has banned AI-generated content.

For folks from Illinois, this is another attempt by the state to force age verification into everything (which leads to mass surveillance, data leaks, and ID theft). If you're from Illinois, contact your local reps to oppose this bill. Slip submission for opposition is in op's thread. #SaveSpeech

🚨 Remember the horrible law I posted about last week, to require age verification to use smart phones, or Linux? The Illinois legislature rescheduled hearings, & added more. We all now need to fill out 4 forms as "Opposed", all over. Please do so ASAP, by Thursday. Instructions below. Pass this on.

Yeah, this just sucks. All of it sucks. I dunno how to combat something like this tbh.

And if you think this is just some BS meme image, you can listen to the man himself: www.npr.org/transcripts/...

Hey everyone! Cloud Puppy book 3: The Pup Days of Summer is coming out in a few weeks (April 7th) and if you haven’t pre-ordered yet, Barnes & Noble is doing a pre-order promotion from March 24th - March 26th! Just use the code PREORDER25!

Cannot believe “man who has never run a profitable company shovels mountains of cash into a bonfire“ isn’t a viable business model, what’s the world coming to

OS level age verification is a Meta lobbying project Pass it on

I'm on deadline but my mind is elsewhere. #jjk #jujutsukaisen #choso

You would be hard-pressed to find a more passionate advocate for good books than Drew. Not sure if he wants your job offers, but you should send them to him anyway, because he's a rare gem! (He's also a real cutie-pie, not that that matters re: work stuff, I just wanted to say it.)

I will never use AI to write anything. Even if it weren't ethically dubious, using AI to write is like having a robot do the reps during weight lifting. Your writing skills will deteriorate. Your voice will atrophy. I genuinely don't understand why any writer would do it. Makes no sense.

Dial was the first publisher to publish my books. Those books got me through a really difficult time in my life. I can't believe this is how they're being treated now.

Loser shit from these republicans. Stay up to date on this horrible bill.

publishers need to be way better about acknowledging the contributions of illustrators 🙂 if i have to go full sleuth mode to find out who the cover or interior illustrator for a book is, then you're doing them dirty

Art is a mirror, not a courtroom. If art makes you uncomfortable, it is not a moral failing of you or the creator, it is a challenging conversation to have with yourself. People need to get used to having uncomfortable feelings instead of lashing out at others because of them.

BREAKING: Grammarly is pulling down its explosively controversial feature that impersonates writers without their consent futurism.com/artificial-i...

I finally lost my shit about so-called AIs, LLMs, enshittification & everything fucking evil that @officialgrammarly.bsky.social is doing. I'm fucking furious, and not just about what 1 company has done. An open letter to Grammarly & the rest of the LLM hype machine www.moryan.com/an-open-lett...

Truly a perfect news alert

This goes for American comics, too. Take what you think they make, halve it, then halve it again. And if they aren't working for the Big Two, halve it again. And to be brutally honest, if they're writing and drawing graphic novels, halve it yet again.

I think my greatest advice to other artists who want to make a comic or visual novel with their own characters is to actually read other comics or vns

Call your reps about this. Every time a book ban has been overturned or shut down, it's because the vast majority of people who believe in the freedom to read spoke up. Find your reps' info at reps.fyi.

There seems to be this notion in publishing that making a comic is the same as making an illustrated kids’ book, and it will send me to an early grave.

🚨 It looks like the UK government is gearing up to upend copyright law in favour of AI companies, legalising the theft of their work. This is despite creatives' huge protests, and despite previous proposals being roundly rejected by the public. Please spread the word. 🧵 1/4

I recently got back into Genshin Impact after taking a year off and I’m loving the new Nod Krai region! I’ve also been learning Clip Studio in my spare time so this was created in that. So far, the program is pretty fun to use! #wanderer #lumine #genshinimpact #scaramouche #nodkrai
