'A NSFW ban won't negatively affect me, I don't draw or post porn!' You sure? Here's how it went down when tumblr did it:

Some friends asked me to make their WoLs into bugs as well so. more bug #art

I don't think motivating people to move to other platforms to avoid the stupid censorship rules is a good solution. Quite the opposite. There is NO SAFE space for artists nowadays, if we don't fight back this will only get worse and worse

You might see several artists mad about the bluesky policy update banning non-con, even artists who do not make that kind of material, and wonder why it's such a problem. If that's you, here is a quick breakdown: 🧵

#wolAotd Lynea figured the mushloaf was probably safest in terms of "which of these is least likely to make me sick" - it was still very early days in the First since she went to Ahm Areng first so gotta be careful right? What she did not figure was that it would taste Like That :( She shared it.

Freelance illustration gigs drying up. Ad agencies using Midjourney instead of hiring human artists. Costume design turned over to AI wholesale. Good work vanishing. These are the stories of working visual artists, who describe losing jobs, wages, and hope as their clients and bosses embrace AI.

Shoutouts my retainers who I thought I would write more lore for and just haven't. Like they have basic lore and its not that I don't think about them I just haven't like. written much more for them small profiles below

#wolAotd Lynea doesn't like to incite violence where it's not needed, so she very rarely shoots first. Obviously some problems need to be nipped in the bud but she would want to understand the core of the issue and before opting to strike.

Eurovision was once a highlight of my year, but the organization has made clear it will happily politicize the event to support and normalize Israel's genocide. Deep respect to Ireland and Slovenia for taking the lead and refusing to be part of that. www.theguardian.com/tv-and-radio...

Been playing a lot of Silksong

What if warrior of light Lynea Ryukiri was a dragonfly in hallownest

Ants are real now so I figured I should Silksong-ify his design <3 truly the best part of getting a new game is the new OC lore potential #art #silksong

silksong

#wolAotd Zenos showed up. That's literally it she fucking hates that guy

For some reason I thought this was funny, I can't tell if it still is. #octopathtraveler | #tums

People acknowledge artists are "struggling" but ignore when they are asking for people to give interactions to their post or repost. If you agree then repost this. Because liking it literally is apart of the problem. Artist want "change" but stay quiet about it. BE A VOICE. SPEAK OUT. WE FIGHT

#wolAotd longer post, EW spoilers In main WoL canon Lynea actually comes very close to turning, but in the timeline where she's just a civilian and not an adventurer or anything? I think there's not a chance she turns. She's too optimistic by nature for that, the only reason she gets close as WoL

#wolAotd So when I was first in the character creator I intended Lynea to have an ice/water aesthetic (hence why she's so blue) but the more I developed her the more the whm combo of wind/earth became her primary elements. In canon she hasn't really learned any ice magic actually lol

#wolAotd Lynea knows how to sew and do basic repairs to her gear and usually will get any major issues fixed up as soon as she notices them but doesn't overly concern herself with small scratches etc.. She's not as good at metalwork so she usually gets others to repair those bits for her if needed.

#wolAotd Lynea is probably just gently removing the critter herself. actually I feel like she could be the kind of person to accidentally make a bunch of wild animals like her just because she gave one of them a piece of fruit or something so this might be a recurring problem

Silksong was developed the way it was because the developer didn't have to worry about money. The only way you get more games developed like Silksong is if Universal Basic Income becomes a thing.

#wolAotd Lynea's aether looks like the oranges and purples of a sunset, swirling together like mist. It's soft and warm to feel, and probably tastes like fruit.

I call myself an artist I've barely done any proper drawings of her its criminal tbh

#wolAotd Lynea would be a healer/dps combo that simply uses white mage as her class title, but who pulls abilities from red mage and even has the rapier when she's on dps. As healer she can use magic barrier and embolden, and on dps her rdm combo ends with afflatus misery instead of resolution

#wolAotd Lynea brushed it off at first, since she didn't initially think she actually held a candle to the WoLs from carteneau. As time went on and especially after coils it became impossible to deny - she accepted it then, and felt a strange blend of purpose, nerves, and fulfilment.

#Smaugust day uhh listen the exact number doesn't matter ok? dragon is all that matters. pixel dragon to be specific (64x64)

#wolAotd she definitely doesn't have any sort of license but surely piloting a magitek vehicle is HARDER than driving right? Sure she had guidance from Cid on how to fly a manacutter or use the g-warrior but those were whole ass flying machines surely she can drive a car. Surely.

#wolAotd Lynea's name is a symbol of her parents' rejection of the old Hingan traditions that they left behind when they moved to Eorzea - she holds massive respect for her parents for doing that and so she wouldn't trade this name for anything. She also thinks the shorthand of Lyn is cute

#Smaugust Day 8 - Feline meow

#Smaugust Day 7 - Tower

#Smaugust Day 5? 6? idk I just didn't want to go two days in a row with no dragon so here take a little guy

it's ARR Lynea at the crystal tower which is unusual but also kinda banger pic

I'll be real with you I spent like 6 hours playing ff14 7.3 msq earlier I don't think there's a dragon happening today

#Smaugust Day 4 - Paper A little origami lad

#Smaugust Day 3 - Jungle

#wolAotd to answer the question first Lynea speaks Eorzean Common and Hingan but I'm also going to yap about how I HC the whole echo understanding all languages thing works (spoilers for Shadowbringers to 5.3 below) 🧵

#Smaugust Day 2 - Forbidden "Terrible, dark power, that thing commanded. Power so great, it could not be destroyed; only sealed away with heavy chains and powerful locks. Were it ever released from that prison, there would be naught left to do but pray."

#Smaugust Day 1 - Spark A familiar face to anyone who's seen my artfight page!

I think the way this game by Luth Haroon illustrates what’s been happening is Gaza is powerful and haunting: lharoon.itch.io/insertdatehere

remembered this post because while I don't think Lynea in lore would become a mch, today I accidentally roped myself into levelling it by making a fire outfit for it that requires me to be level 100 to actually wear. Oops

#wolAotd Lynea is pretty good at remembering landmarks and other interesting features that help her navigate, and she keeps a compass on hand as well. She's not the best map reader but she usually figures it out once she makes a connection between the map and her physical surroundings.

Hey what do you mean mega dragonite with dragonair features is real. they put my fucking fursona in the videogame

#wolAotd Lynea tries to keep her avatar Alakei far far away from anything not directly combat related for the sake of keeping quiet about having a voidsent pact. Outside of the First, she pretty much never calls on him unless she's certain that no one outside of her trusted circle will see him

Estinien (Estinky), and bonus Vrtra from Final Fantasy XIV. 🐲😌

#wolAotd fighting for peace, to make the world a better place, was always her calling. She was inspired by a certain someone who she no longer remembers and worked military for a while before starting down the adventurer’s path. Though when she was a kid she wanted to work in the botanist's guild

The twins! Alphinaud and Alisaie Leveilleur. 😌 #FinalFantasyXIV
