the post office is a public service. it doesn’t need to make money. public transit doesn’t need to make money. the library doesn’t need to make money. some things exist for the public good and we desperately need lawmakers to stop thinking about them in terms of capitalism. these are not businesses.

The baguette outfits (Lune's in particular) are just so fabulous that I couldn't resist cosplaying her at Otakuthon this year. Character: Lune Series: Expedition 33 Cosplay made by: me 📸: @lxe.bsky.social Gold chroma tattoos: @dangerousladies.ca

there is no hyperbole in this

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.

So: Fascism is bad The First Amendment is good Genocide is an actual fucking crime And also: It's appalling to be in 2025 where each of these is not, in fact, taken as part of the baseline shared reality anymore

There is nothing more embarrassing to me than hearing something describe writing, entertaining, editing, illustrating, sculpting, journalism, photography, modeling, or just ANY ART OR SKILL as "content". Please stop selling yourself short people!

If you can get the updated Covid booster now, do it, because more restrictions may be coming. (I got mine last week!)

Hello! It’s my birthday! 🎉 I would appreciate likes and shares 🩵 I draw various things but my current focus is on bg heavy illustrations so if you’re interested to see more of those please stick around! #art

I considered writing a long carefully constructed argument laying out the harms and limitations of AI, but instead I wrote about being a hater. Only humans can be haters.

Just a heads up. I was able to schedule my COVID vaccine appointment. Online it will ask “do you have a condition that puts you at high risk for severe outcomes from COVID-19 virus.” Click yes and it will allow you to schedule an appointment. No questions asked. No proof required. Pass it on.

GenAI is not inevitable and not everybody is using it, those are lies. It isn’t just creatives who hate it, my partner works in tech industry and so do many of our friends and they all hate AI too!

🌈 Pride never ends 🌈 For pride month this year I did a little #Shera series for patreon, which was super fun! I tried to include or reference a couple flags in each - can you spot them all?

As always, the proof that AI will have no lasting impact on the arts is that it has produced nothing of value. It has been used in the creation of nothing of value. It has nothing to offer the pursuit of beauty and understanding.

Oh hey, guess what I’ve been up to: www.thepopverse.com/comics-dc-ha...

Oh boy I'm competing again tomorrow 😀😀😀😀😀😀😀 why do I do this

I got this (maybe?) when it first released and I love it so much!! It's been my computer desk mat for 3 years and still going strong.

Stop. Collect yourself. Take a deep breath. Exhale. Unclench your jaw. Stretch your fingers. Relax. Relate. Release. If just getting up is all you can do and thats okay too. But try to find something resembling your own peace. I hope you have a decent day.

Wearily pointing at the sign once again that says you gotta defend porn because these fuckheads see every queer person as inherently pornographic and they always have and they always will. You have to defend it even if you don't personally engage with it because otherwise this happens. ⬇️

Going to the library fucking rules. You can walk in and pick your favorite things and then walk right out without paying anything. It's unbelievable and 100% the kind of thing that won't exist in the future unless you recognize the goodness now before it's too late

VIZ Media quietly added an AI-translated manga to their app and hoped no one would notice. We did. Manga deserves better than cheap, soulless automation. This is a betrayal of translators, fans, and the art form. We don't want your AI translations!

/bangs sign You guys wanted us to use content warnings so maybe dont attack the creators for actually using them.

Something we discovered during our fruitful zap session today- I've added it to the initiative page. cartoonist.coop/censorship-p...

I think it needs to be pointed out as well that Visa is clearly losing money off these calls clogging their systems and still thought it was worth the money to re-train their employees/contractors. They're not scared enough to drop the issue altogether, people need to keep calling and snail-mailing.

This is a small-potatoes argument but I think it's true for a lot of other artists-- drawing erotica and getting to share it with you is an incredibly fulfilling part of my life as an artist and person and having that taken away would leave me with a void in my heart so vast it's hard to think about

I called and am getting transferred to the secretary, that direct line is: 202-690-7000 Introverts: it's after office hours right now, so you won't have to speak to a human if you call the direct line now and leave a message. #DidThisToday

It really is now or never. Both paypros and government are making the big push to effectively kill the internet. We might be talking about porn now but porn is step one in a process that moves blindingly fast

Gotta say…

“It’s just a tool! People used to hate on photoshop too.” Take away my photoshop, take away my tablets, I can still draw. Take away your plagiarism machine and what are you gonna do? Shout prompts at me?

I think it’s important to balance your angry posting with silly or horny (or silly-horny) posting because otherwise you just turn into a miserable human being who is incapable of engaging positively with other people

anytime you make a post about how people should stop using Spotify because it fucking sucks, someone pops in from from the Discover feed about how there's no alternative and ignores that you can just buy music or use another streaming service that isn't doing this shit. Anyway, stop using Spotify

So when you guys do you daily calls today you should ask mastercard what illegal adult content they found on these content creation platforms. Tell them to make names. When they give you the runaround say "but what have you found that's illegal". They won't because there was never an investigation

Let's Keep Calling!

This page has a big button for you to email 20+ customer service departments at once with an (editable, if you like) prewritten letter. You can even do it from your phone! There's zero reason to not be participating in the pushback on this.

⭐What'll you have?

Just in time for August I've finally finished the skull sweaters for myself and @jpawlik.com! These were my first big projects and I'm real pleased with how they turned out!
