oomfs if you have tumblr or discord or something please let me know. i did get to talk to new people a lot on here which hadn't happened in a long time, it'd be a shame not to know what you were up to anymore in the event that i delete my bsky acc.

Sorry

a little more specific but: professional cartoonists trace all the time, i wish more amateurs and newcomers did. i stopped gaf and started doing it too. "it's cheating!" yet it's totally okay to be tracing stuff when animating (a more extreme example being rotoscoping). why?

i'm getting pissed off by this app and it's not even because it's buggy or bc the algo sucks or anything, it's bc i feel like the staff on here actively provokes its tiny userbase. it makes me want to just stop using it altogether since they're so adamant that "if i don't like it i can just leave"?

Logging on here is often that pizza community gif with the appartment on fire

"Outre les bateaux dont l'interception est confirmée, la retransmission en direct et les communications avec plusieurs autres bateaux ont été perdues", a ajouté la même source dans un communiqué intitulé: "la flottille mondiale Sumud interceptée".

"Vers 20h30 heure de Gaza (17H30 GMT) plusieurs navires de la flottille Global Sumud notamment l'Alma, le Sirius et l'Adara ont été illégalement interceptés et abordés par les forces d'occupation israéliennes dans les eaux internationales", a indiqué Global Sumud ⬇️

🚨 Israeli warships have surrounded the Global Sumud Flotilla — over 50 vessels. The flotilla insists on breaking the blockade to deliver aid to Gaza.

if you have democrat rep/senators i recommend calling and reminding them you will never vote for them again if they bend the knee on this. shutting down the government is the correct choice. that is the exact phrasing in my 3 calls and it took 5 min total bsky.app/profile/pink...

now i'm fired up again lol. i should work on my pitch *crying*

i finished my comic demo yesterday...... i'm feeling all sorts of things

👊👹

What might not occur to you upon reading this headline is that, in other words, ICE is targeting gay men of color Every queer press org should be picking up this story

The Sumud Flotilla is under attack. Thiago Ávila, a Brazilian organiser, reports 10 drone attacks on the smaller boats, seemingly to destroy their sails. Citizens from the entire world are aboard. It is carrying food for the victims of genocide. Governments need to protect it.

trying to find the unpleasant yuri enjoyers on bluesky👴 pls help

#sdr2 #nagitokomaeda

most of the best yuri fanworks i have ever seen were comics, fanart, or even fangames, so i feel like people pearl clutching over ao3 stats just don't understand that yuri isn't genderbent yaoi, it's an entirely different subculture from it

Last Goodbye #undertale10thanniversary

Whenever sites come up with new rules like this I thing about how if you were a creator who was making something every bit on the level with a hugely popular and acclaimed series, would you be allowed to share it? Like, if you were sitting on the next Game of Thrones, you couldn’t share that here.

If you were a webcomic artist trying to make the next Berserk, Watchmen, Sin City, Skydoll, Blacksad - basically any acclaimed adult comic you can think of - there are dwindlingly few places you can independently publish that online

this is the only thing that matters to me

Puyo Puyo comic by Rei Mikamoto, from the Puyo Puyo Sun Official Guidebook.

Mech Pilot (🦋)

it is maddening that in posting a comic on a social media platform i have to be uncertain and paranoid about including content that could easily appear in an r-rated movie or a cable tv show.

Also, people did not stop posting porn on tumblr after the ban. They stopped tagging. You can take fire and gasoline to a site and porn will still be there, now just out there without any protections that used to make it safe to navigate

*sees weird gays draw sexually charged violence on their ipads* You Bitch Mother Fucker *sees that the President of the United States is a well-known child molester* Wlel, that's his beliefs and I respect that

they are not gonna fucking pay someone to sit and flip through porn all day dude. they are gonna have an algo figure it out and that algo is gonna fucking flag basically any sex that does not have a character yelling "YES I LOVE THIS SEX WE ARE HAVING!"

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

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: 🧵

what i'm hearing is "private accounts are rolling in sometime in october" cause there's no way you'd just let go of potentially over 10k users without a backup plan.

i read a physical copy of boy island (my first time reading the whole thing!!!) yesterday and was very impressed with the quality of print, like it is such a nice book. all i could think of was "man... a shame about the sprockets stuff"

in 2045 you will have to pay for the right to breathe oxygen in paris. fucking shithole

One thing I'll say about DC not only canceling Red Hood, but recalling the first issue and refunding stores for buying it, is that you can still get Neil Gaiman's work through them. They still work with Otto Schmidt. Eddie Berganza worked there for years AFTER the formation of a policy that no women

were to be around him at any time for any reason due to his habitual sexual harassment and assaults. Frank Miller released one of the most savagely Islamophobic comics of all time, HOLY TERROR, and still works with DC. There are pedophiles, war criminals, confessed sexual predators on staff.

Hey all! I'd like to thank the world's media institutions, and of course the Bluesky mods, for being totally normal and proportional about a barely famous trans woman cracking wise about a Nazi's death.

The ACLU has written a guide to basic protest OPSEC that addresses the very basic risk factors -- it's nowhere near fully comprehensive, but it's the absolute table stakes for responsible protest: aclu-wa.org/story/Protes...
