Making ocs with your friend for the purpose of them fucking each other is cool but have you ever been playing dolls together for like 3 years and one day both of you go "well this is the only way forward obviously"

I think when I talked to the OCC I just called a branch and was like "where can I talk to you guys about unfair debanking" and they sent me to where I could write them a thing. They were very chill and helpful actually www.ftc.gov/about-ftc/co... www.occ.gov/about/connec...

re: getting your paypal nuked (or stripe, your bank account, any visa/mastercard access, etc) Please report your experience to the FTC and the OCC. They're already under pressure for debankment and we want to stress how important this is (and once again, the OCC mentioned adult entertainment)

Well fuck, i just got an email from paypal saying my account has been permanently deactivated because "we found unapproved sales of sexually oriented materials or services." Pretty sure i saw another artist post about this within the last couple days, safe to assume it's AI mass-flagging accounts

If you ask a hacked discord account the name of the friend whose game they want you to test you will get a variety of stupid answers, ranging in effort

Deeply interested in what comes of this (I've been following this since the OCC released preliminary findings last year and named adult entertainment as an industry disproportionately affected by debanking) www.finance-monthly.com/occ-debankin...

This fall I'm gonna NEED cosmetic companies to start making real lipstick again, none of this lipglass/balm stuff, give me oxblood in satin finish with 3 different undertones

I wish I was in Boston rn it looks so fun

Come to me 🌷🌿 ✥ #bg3 #halsin #clover

Please call your reps, this thing is so evil

Please call your reps, this thing is so evil

Look at dis and contact ya reps about how bad this is if it helps Kosa passing would mean almost every site online especially social media and YouTube or such will need ID verification and it won't be optional x.com/i/status/206...

was about to help someone out in the patreon discord because their nsfw page was struggling to get published but then they said that they post AI "but I put actual effort into it using a paid service" so they can stay in approval hell forever 💕💕🔪🔪

Halsin truly embodying a tree because he’s hard and got so much seed to give 🌲😚

✥💧

Thinking again about Clover offering his mouth for the first time and Halsin nearly passing away 💔 I cropped this sometime last year but we can look at it again ✥ #bg3 #halsin #clover

Caffeine would give him the heebie jeebies

My hand is doing a little better but it was more rest than the steroids even 😭 I'm gonna try to be more mindful this month as I get back into it

imo how well you can fish out what gives you the gut-punch moment in your art. It's such an intangible thing bc you're reaching into thoughts you haven't had. It's reliant on knowing my character really well and understanding that it's oftentimes a small detail or movement that's the hidden star.

no social media is getting my pat on the back anymore but also.. still no images in dms

Oh it's all bs

I just had to run a knife down between the front door and the frame to unstick the paint so I could open it How excited do you think I am to move into a better place next year

Someone on tumblr left me a nice message about the hands I draw... I do love hands

Well the things I think about that keep the little spark going currently is my boys of course, the FSC is currently in the trenches building their adult entertainment union (and the application process takes about 6 months) and that the FTC-

When I said this I was also thinking especially of the couple people in my strawpage asks who told me they were scared to follow their heart and make the art that spoke to them for fear of getting called out in their circles. Art is enduring and it will outlast this too 💕

Highly related I've seen a lot of talk abt Euphoria getting to film porn that indie creators would get banhammered for. Pay closer attention to how it's presented: it's made to be evil and corrupting, the devil whispering in womens' ear with financial freedom and power, until they're punished for it

Remember when I said this stuff led to fascism

The fascist call to familial and national strength is the same stuff documented by Wilhelm Reich in the 30s. "Sexually awakened women, affirmed and recognised as such, would mean the complete collapse of the authoritarian ideology." So wild to see them lay it out so directly.

Sex workers have been banging the drum that moral panics around porn are a fascist project for years and years and people on this website still go "but it's ickyyyyy it's probably baaad for socieeetyyy"

They saw the angel in the marble too

I still think about how I gave my bg3 guardian purple eyes just because I thought they looked nice

More flowers :)c

This International Whores’ Day, we’re launching FSC Speak Out, a new campaign from FSC and @EPAUnited centering the voices of adult creators. In our first video, performers share how the industry has provided independence, agency, and opportunity. #FSCSpeakOut #IWD

Part of a sketch page on patreon.. Halsin adores exploring but Clover can only take so much www.patreon.com/posts/143558... ✥ #bg3 #halsin #clover

Halsin takes his time admiring his little mate. Clover had no hope of keeping himself together. Full drawings on patreon 💕☘️🍯 www.patreon.com/posts/halsin... ✥ #bg3 #halsin #clover

Halsin's extra possessive and doting in the post-climax haze, especially when his body is caught between bear and man. His hands chase every last thought from Clover's mind. Full is up on patreon 🌿 www.patreon.com/tendermiasma ✥ #bg3 #halsin #clover

halsin misses him when he blinks #bg3 #cloverhoney

I feel like I've made longer writeups to this question over the years, and some people feel a certain way about this advice coming from a "big account", but know that we all had a time when 5 likes excited us. The best advice I can give is that if you want to make art, you'll come back to it, even-

Not sure I have the right to tell you what to do when I'm sitting here banned from all my favorite downtime activities due to said strain 🥲 Pacing yourself, keeping your load manageable, and remembering that hyperfixation can hurt you even if you're having fun (I do have a dr appt tomorrow)

Bluesky's talked before about their plans to implement subscriptions and I think once that happens adult content is going to get hit again. Enter payment processors. I think we really need to be making plans regardless

Repeating this here but, Can you please stop shooting yourself in the foot and actually ask what your users want? It is EXHAUSTING having to mount this kind of pushback every other month just to keep you from making terrible decisions.

I'm getting a newsletter together that'll send you updates from me direct to your email! I advise my patreon members to sign up so I can reach you if something happens to my page, and I planned to use it mainly for critical emergency updates, but is there anything else you'd want? Or is that good?

I've developed a strain injury on my hand so I can't do any of my fun downtime activities I will practice moving objects with my mind ig

It feels bleak and it gets me down too but it feels very akin to the temperance movement. I believe in better days and that they'll happen as long as we keep trying. These are some of the oldest industries in the world ans their censorship, while intense right now, support has also never been louder

FWIW stuff like this applies to us, as we release dozens of new scents a year inspired by explicitly sexual imagery from Japan’s Edo period

Putting the finishing touches on this comic update and genuinely obsessed

There's a github issue where people are voicing their opposition to this change bsky.app/profile/gors...

thank you to the people who are not artists and the sfw artists who stand up for us, it means the world. It shows the powers that be that this is a problem that they can't brush off as "oh the perverts are mad they can't get their rocks off".

in a world where a plagiarism machine is being used for deepfake revenge porn and CSAM is being forced on every computer and app by 1%-er people who talk and think like rapists, if your battle is with what people draw or with sex work in general, you're the monster or you're the bootlicker or both.

I don't have skin in this game. I draw sex, like, once a year. I REALLY don't like drawing violence. I don't enjoy most porn. I skip any gore. but I will fight for the right for artists to draw whatever erotic or heinous shit they want. I'm an adult capable of looking away and keeping my lane clear.
