AI bros be like "you just dont want anyone to succeed", Reality: I want every creative/artist of any kind to succeed. You literally dont understand that if you can type up this novel for a prompt and more novels for edits to get it to "look how you want it to", you can pick up a pencil & draw OR

FEEEEEEEEESH !!!

Yes we should all be mindful of what we post online, but then again people are allowed to post selfies of flexing their muscles after a workout! Grown adults should be allowed to say that something is "stupid" publicly

Once you enable adult content, you can then set any of the categories to "warn" and "hide". When one of these categories is set to "warn", bsky will blur the image and give a warning on the post. You can then choose whether to interact with the it

Heads up ya'll! with Bluesky rolling out moderation crack down in their new update, please consider enabling "adult content" under your moderation tab in settings. Not so you can have porn on your feed, but to ensure that you can still see posts with the word "stupid" and "hell" in it-

And I was today years old when I figured out my blood sugar crashes in the morning. Can we not? Im already behind on packing. The movers are coming tomorrow. Now I have to sit and chill until my body re-regulates. Breakfast made it worse tbh. Can I go back to my teens or even 20s when I was FINE?!

Am I missing something or am I just stupid/blind? Facebook business pages used to let us pick "followers only" for post audiences. When I do it now, It only shows me public- no other options. I spent hours digging thru settings on the fb app, metas POS business suite app, mobile and desktop sites...

Debating on whether its better to have a workshop at home or if renting a studio space would be better 🤔 Im one of those ADHDers that if I have to GO to work, Im mentally there for it. Working from home is more iffy. Plus a shared space forces me to organize more and clean up as I work.

This needs too be normalized at conventions.

Some people get their start by copying other furry artists. When I started making cartoons, it was ANIME for everything except horses. Horses were Spirit style. I was a horse & anime artist long before I adopted drawing furries. Today I still side more w/anime as my OCs are my own "anime" characters

I found some old old art when sorting files on my cloud storage! "Caption" is in the two screenshots attached for those of you who read those. #hamtaro

Please read for important updates 🧡 Thank you

The Eevee I managed to save from my resin disaster needs a new home 💔 I cant use him for the project I bought him for after he was contaminated, but I did get it all out of him amazingly! $10+ shipping

Beware of fake "fursuit maker" accounts. Do your research. Ask for proofs. Ask for videos. Ask for extra photos with a handwritten note. Zoom in. Inspect the image details. A.I. slop scams are everywhere now!

The countdown has begun. Three bins sealed. Fourth one underway. I ran out of time to dump all of the already full bins and reorganize them, but I did organize what I have out already before tossing it in a bin

In 1998, Disney had a website with coloring pages etc on it. Like a built in MS Paint with some shape stamps. The top one was from my CD for the computer from 1995- TLK Activity Center. I picked the colors myself & filled them in, placed the sun & leaves on the bottom one, then taped them to my desk

OLD ART: 2003 Oekaki Board Sorry if I've posted these before. Im just finding old files here n there and sharing them until I have new stuff 😅 Oekaki was a browser based "art program"??? Idk what to call it exactly- it was an embedded interface that let you doodle & color. This was my early teens

Pretty sure my allergies, asthma, or EDS would have killed me by the age of 3. Yup. I broke bones starting at age 2 just by hypermobile joints flexing too far

If she gets to 10k likes I’ll draw her some friends

Artists: this is your regularly shceduled reminder that if your need to Grow Your Following outweighs your need to Improve Your Craft, you have lost the plot and need to reorient yourself. Soc Med is not real life, it is a tool to support your goals.

Im going to be brutally honest: I am beyond tired of seeing people complain that they cant just grab a pencil and *boom* there is instantly a full detail studio quality drawing on the paper. You are being fooled into feeling guilty about not being able to do that by a COMPUTER. Its not a magic trick

*More old art* Before Spirit, I was more focused on realistic looking horses and in terms of cartoons, the only thing I really had for reference were my Lisa Frank folders and those famous airbrush illustrations of unicorns from the 90s (I had some mini posters I - 1/3 #unicorn #sketch #kiddrawing

*I dont have time for new art right niw, but have some old art!* Long long ago in middle school, after I had seen Spirit, I would draw all kinds of horses in "Spirit Style". They werent very good, but I never quit drawing! #mistyofchincoteague #horseart #horsecartoon 1/2

2026 will be largely art-inactive. Im just so busy IRL that I have no time to work on anything

Kinda tired of this now 🫩

The saga of problems continues. I'm not sure what the plan is this time, but most likely it will be a repeat of the one below it. If so, I am most likely going to wait until the fall to do the surgery because I dont want to miss out on my summer hikes. Pain and numbness or not, I have plans!

If you are the type of furry artist who is going to complain about your finances, but wont actively do something about it, then you're just complaining to get people to feel bad for you. I gave you a long list of things you could do BESIDES fursuits and you got mad because I didnt pity you 🙄

OLD ART, 2003: More finds from digging through a ton of old files I found. I used to use a computer mouse long before touch screens were a thing! I didnt get a drawing tablet until 2006. This drawing was right at the start of high school for me. 23 years has changed so much for my art! ->

OLD ART: I was digging thu files and found my 2016 entry for "Chalk Fest" when I lived in Central WI. I havent drawn ponies in quite some time now cuz Ive been trying to figure out how I wanted them to look. (Click for part 2)

Come join me to get a first look at everything and juicy behind the scenes info that I do not post on my regular accounts! I give status updates etc there plus WIPs and general PSAs for when Im going to be unavailable for short periods t.me/italianpitbu...

When people say I need therapy for things Ive been through.... Say hi to my therapy. Soooo many of their songs are the only reason Im able to even post that I went to a concert of theirs. Music is therapy for me

I am not 18 any more. I cannot function off of four hours of sleep and an absurdly amount of coffee. Its been almost 20 years since I could go to bed at like 2-3AM, wake up an hour before class, kick out my five page essay in one draft at Sbux with a grande, go to class and get high grades. Now I ->

Canadians: we have a petition to sign to strip ICE from any future and all current Canadian vehicles, equipment and buildings from their operations. The petition also covers prevention of Canadian businesses from cooperation with ICE mandates.

Was in the zone at the office, finishing my dragon lineart pieces for the YCH pack, then all of a sudden without warning, my pen dies :( I went digging in my case's pouch for a new battery and discovered Im out of batteries. I'll have to pull some from my stash and refill it. RIP me- 12hr shift 😭

If you don’t like how something is written how about you pick up a pen and pad and use that energy that you use to harass creators to make your own shit???

Me hearing about people using a feature in Blender to take high rez photos and be able to transpose them onto sculpts as textures with full realistic 3D depth etc on the texture (not just flat image wrapped around sculpt) wondering if I can use that to make my own realistic texture mods for games 👀

Taking the pixelbook with to the office so I can finish what I started. I just have to make dragon wings, a dragon tail set, and Freakhound heads and tails for this base pack then double check if I made fluffy cheeks or serval ears a thing yet. Once those are done, I can release it (+ its free!)

Why cant Game of Thrones be as entertaining and fast paces at House of the Dragon 😭 The only saving grace for this is Peter Dinklage because he is absolutely hilarious and a grade A actor. I feel bad for Jason Momoa 🤣 his character sucks

Scratch that. We are now at 15% 🙄 By the end of the day itll increase more. So! Artists who ship to 🇺🇲, you're probably going to have to stop for now. 🇺🇲 artists shipping to the rest of the world... Also not a good outlook

Oh .. that went well ... POTUS threw a tantrum and illegally added an EXTRA 10% onto existing illegal tariffs. Gee.. who saw that coming because congress and SCOTUS refuse to enforce anything. RIP small businesses

The USSC ruled 🇺🇲 new tariffs as unconstitutional. I have no idea what they will physically do about it, though. Gentle reminder that those affect my international outbound shipments AND have stalled me from being able to open a shop with custom fabrics, patterns, and bases PLUS affects custom orders

Since Dorian already likes Bull, I dont think my OC's height would scare him off, but not gonna lie, he's more handsome. Like the Dorian of all Qunari 🤣 and Dorian would probably adore the accent.

Not exactly "art", but some random stuff I fixed over the past few weeks. Regular sewing projects teach me new things for plush maming and costumes (cosplay & fursuits). I try to make things as pretty as possible when working with more "function over fashion" projects (on top of durability)

I have created a matching bsky for my instagram gamer profile! I have a lot of stuff to upload to insta still abd then have to reupload everything to bsky, but its alive now 🤣

UK followers! I have a friend who needs to deal with a deadbeat babydaddy and she says the legal help cant do anything for her because he hasnt physically hit her? But he hasnt paid child support, ever, for 7 years now and he is defaulting on the joint mortgage. She wants to get full custody but-

I think a lot more people need to make fan art and fan fiction instead of constantly spamming comments sections about things they want to change in movies and shows that are already done and released… You can do it! Get creative and make your dreams real! 🎨📝

Due to some security risks created by some pf my locals in CO, I had to switch my Bsky profile to logged in users only. I wanted to lock the instagram too but its set to business so I cant. Unless its art, its not going on FB or IG now. Text updates are now here only. Some people have no lives.
