How do I explain to offline people that my favorite Japanese mascot said "we can only be liberated from queer oppression if we are truly seen as human" and then started wielding fireworks like a rocket launcher on the side of a mountain without sounding like I've totally lost it? Chiitan forever

"Sometimes there came a sensation as if a hand was drawn softly along my cheek and neck. Sometimes it was as if warm lips kissed me, and longer and longer and more lovingly as they reached my throat, but there the caress fixed itself"

Since it's October, I can post this pic I have saved on my phone again

The university relies so deeply on its faculty to do our jobs with sensitivity and care, going far beyond the letter of our contracts to mentor and advise and assist our students. You would think that it would see the inadvisability of treating its entire teaching staff with contempt. And yet!

I asked all my very fake super fictional and overall not real characters and they said they super duper consent to all the weird shit that happens to them.

This platforms moderation is currently unable to tell the difference between artistic/non-sexual nudity and explicit pornography How do you expect them to be able to differentiate between consensual and non-consensual?

Anyway, here’s your form of consent, Bluesky.

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.

TW: Pet death We had to help our cat pass almost a week ago. It was sudden, and we had no time to prepare. I made these Kitty Pumpkin earrings and charms to pay off her last vet bill. While all of the money from my orders go to bills and the business, money from these will directly go to her bill.

No, authors aren't burnt out because "writing without AI is slow" We're burnt out because we're paid dirt so we need day jobs to survive

I'd be less burnt out without AI slop clogging up search visibility, turning readers off new-to-them authors, feeding my work into machines that are destroying the environment, and inspiring class action lawsuits I need to keep track of. My writing speed isn't the problem.

For the cynics who think it doesn’t matter, that the compensation for authors whose work was stolen will be so low it’s not worth fighting, I personally think it’s worth making the monetary punitive damage these companies suffer as big as possible to deter similar theft in the future.

The. Classes. Are. Popular. I didn’t teach intersectionality because it was my gig. I taught it because those classes had waitlists and overenrollments. You do not ever ever trade your base for status. Especially not in the middle of an authoritarian crime spree.

For @ayzplz.bsky.social ✨

The big dance scene in Sinners when they’re talking about music summoning ghosts of the past and present got me all choked up and I keep thinking about how anyone who approached it with even a shred less sincerity could have made it turn out really corny and cringey, but the full commitment sold it

Portrait study :) #oc #art

Ryan Coogler's period thriller knows "the devil's music" isn't the opposite of the holy word, but its twin.

Warm fiery hands, ever so gentle, a soft kiss to keep the pain away. Burn away these cruel memories, from the ashes, gentle and loving ones rises. A new dawn for the one who stalks the night. [ #oc #ocsky #art ]

Vassago and Caesnig commission for @/lesserkey.bsky.social 🤍🤍🤍

I read that his film was rejected for 3 years & then he finally did & secured a deal that grants him ownership of his own shit in 25 years & now they’re saying that the deal he got, to own his own shit, in 25 years, is bad for the industry. Personally I think creators should own their creations.

Gothic vampire for @/nekomomoz [Tumblr] 🖤 #art #commission #vampire #backlog

This is all fascinating. I had no idea Ryan Coogler negotiated a contract where he kept final cut, first-line profits, and the rights to SINNERS after 25 years. But the idea of studio execs FREAKING OUT about it ("What if EVERY in-demand creative wants rights over their own work?") is even better.
