Folks, the Inktober guy doesn’t own everything you post with inktober tag, that’s not how copyright works. He trademarked the logo, so if you sell an inktober art zine *with his Inktober logo* he can order you to take it down. There’s a difference, don’t repost wrong info.

⚡️Update: Russian missile attack injures 16 in Zaporizhzhia, including 3 children. One high-rise building was hit directly by a Russian missile, Zaporizhzhia Oblast Governor Ivan Fedorov said. Emergency services continue to operate on the scene.

SFW crew, this one's for you! Tell bsky you stand with NSFW creators and let us have creative freedom with a better labeling system, NOT censorship! Use that feedback form! #bskycensorship

KoG is our first-ever 2D show, so our production process was COMPLETELY new and so exciting - see for yourself!

I cannot express how wild this quote is. This is a top tech analyst at a well-regarded firm saying that there is not enough capital to actually pay for all the stuff that NVIDIA and OpenAI has promised. It is so important that everybody realizes that *there is not enough money to do this*

Everything is really scary and chaotic for Trans individuals right now. Regardless of whatever lies and fear that is spread, we know that the world is better with Trans people in it. You are all worth fighting for, and we will continue to advocate for your rights and your safety.

Hey union voice actors! Remember when I got up to the mic at the strike meeting and said y'all were conceding ground to companies that had lost their prestige ages ago, and that at least 2 of them wouldn't exist when the next round of negotiations took place? Wasn't that funny? What a crazy woman!

Discovering computer as an adult makes you go crazy. Discovering computer as a baby makes you go crazy. In all of human history, there will only ever be one generation to discover computer at the correct age: 13

Oh Aseel 💔💔💔 I’ve been dreading this. God what a crushing blow. If you’ve been following Aseel’s posts at all you know how fiercely devoted she was to her sweet Liza. Please send her some love on this awful day.

Hey, so, survivor of CSAM (child sexual abuse material) here—and a global survivor advocate, including policy work! Fictional material is not illegal. That’s actually why deepfakes are such a big issue for survivors too. That said, actual art should *not* be made illegal. Why? (Con’t)

If we call art, no matter how gross, CSAM, then it removes power from actual survivor-victims. That is *our* term. That is what we went through. Uncomfortable art, no matter the intent is *not* the same. No one was traumatized to make that image. It’s like how “triggered” was taken away from PTSD.

Y- yeah..

[update] Scheduled: #AO3 will be down for about 20 hours starting at 07:30 UTC on September 26 while we prepare some improvements to collection browsing.

Alaa wants to finish her studies and she’s very close

Apparently a lot of ppl needs to hear this #bskycensorship

i'm against the new TOS because no matter how uncomfortable you are with certain subjects, it's very easy to see how bad-faith interpretations of art could be weaponized, especially against marginalized artists, who are more likely to be targeted for harassment #bskycensorship

If you’re looking to help someone who helps a lot of other people ❤️

The upcoming proposed rules surrounding NSFW art are bad and the Bsky mod team should feel bad. Fellow artists: Remember that even if you don't make NSFW art, rules like these eventually come back to bite us all, especially if we make works about queerness.

today’s my birthday!! here’s some of my favorite art I made in the past year 🫶🏻❤️💕

This is entirely true on so many levels I don't think I could possibly detail it exhaustively, but you really can't oppose trans people's human rights and still have freedom of expression and bodily autonomy, the idea that people are entitled to self determination goes right out the window....

They have this button on the right hand column that in addition to public shaming, lets you shame them in other useful ways

Things were better when computer was in room. Now everywhere is computer. This is bad. Computer should never have escaped room.

As someone who rarely/does not post nsfw - this new bluesky TOS feels like a dubious slippery slope since LGBTQIA+ media has been caught up in itchio’s nsfw cull. The nsfw label system is great. Sure, if u want, it can be made better. ask for suggestions to improve it instead of this vague rule.

Once again, Jesus Christ, if your own policy would ban, like, The Handmaid's Tale, The Colour Purple, One Hundred Years of Solitude, A Clockwork Orange, Blood Meridian, Measure For Measure, like.... what are we doing here. What is this for

A lot of my followers and general sphere understands this but it's really important we recognize that even if we don't like some art for personal moral reasons, we need to defend its right to exist. We went from no rape to no cat ears in less than two months. Everyone who warned about this was right

start using "fanworks" again instead of "content" let's go people

🎸リ～

Awful to think that amid all this pain and misfortune these people still have landlords to contend with. Sahar now needs $650 to cover her expenses and asks everyone for help. Any little bit helps it really does

I recently talked to a guy who thinks AI won / is inevitable, who doesn't understand why anti-AI people get so mad about it (handwaves off energy, copyright, jobs) also doesn't see users clog up human review that used to work screenshots are from 2023 and 2024 this has gotten worse across the board

Basically everything that happens in Gaza that’s reported in the papers a person (usually many people) have told me first

Attention fellow AUSTRALIANS! 🇦🇺 We now have an official petition to parliament to STOP MASTERCARD and VISA from its campaign of censorship, restricting what legal products we can buy. Please sign it now, and if you're not an Aussie, spread the word! www.aph.gov.au/e-petitions/...

Just a reminder to check for your name in this list of books that OpenAI trained from. If your name is there, they probably owe you several thousand dollars. OpenAI cried that if everyone eligible author files, the company will go bankrupt, so I'm alerting every author I have ever spoken to.
