Today is the last day to get the gorgeous hardback edition of THE SECOND SAFEST MOUNTAIN at 25% off!

pivoting to normal & good stories about brave soldiers of the mighty west getting heroically blown up to bits in 4k by the scary oriental other after depicting run of the mill power play bdsm is banned everywhere for being too frighteningly sickening a depiction of the worst parts of human nature

wiser people are making better posts about this now but blanket banning *fictional* depictions of noncon and any weird sex shit also makes all your favorite artists make worse, riskless and less interesting work, including yours truly -

The tech industry hates consent. It's disobedience. It's built into the UIs. "Yes," or "ask me later." You can't describe "no" in your art, and they don'tet you click "no." A deregulated industry treating society as a casting couch. They ally with the religious right for a reason.

"Selling Out Is Bad" is a valuable concept and despite all the baggage and bullshit and elitism it could contain it's actually really good to reinforce the ideal that having integrity when it matters, especially when it hurts, is what good/cool people do. Should be adapted instead of jettisoned.

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

final two hours of the sale, thanks so much to everybody who bought the comic so far!

i feel like apologizing for milking the occasion so much, but as you can imagine the times are a little toughé for comic artists releasing adult works on the world wide web as their primary source of income these days, so... time to wear the milking gloves as they say (?)

vesta's newest release, like his earlier works, is immensely luxurious and visceral in the best kind of way - i seriously think vesta is one of the most interesting voices in comics-adjacent art right now, and i recommend dwelling in to this soothingly horrible world below:

this comic feels like touching a cavity with your tongue. beautiful, dreadful drawings of an environment forever changed

"home by the rotting sea" has been nominated for an ignatz!! i'm over the moon! AAAH 🫡🫡🫡🧡

@moderation.bsky.app hey can you not suspend random trans authors thanks

Romanceable characters in my new choose-your-own: 'Casimir' Out NEXT MONTH, more info & pre-order at www.hari-illustration.com/natvc With ending guest art by @vincentisvintage.bsky.social , @claystorks.bsky.social & @valkwise.bsky.social who all understood the mood so perfectly-

PRESSURE PAYPAL! it's good that visa and mastercard call centers are feeling the pinch, but it's not just on them! put the pins on paypal! every adult artist you know lives in fear of the paypal freeze out--but as customers, you're safe! support us with a call!

Four new pages of Haglands... slurp -> www.patreon.com/c/otava

home by the rotting sea is deindexed & now in breach of the updated guidelines of itch, not because it's porn (though my porn comics are flagged also), but because the story explores sexual assault. you should care about porn as well, of course, but we intuitively get the flagrant wrongness of this

itchio putting out a list of prohibited material is unrelated to the impact our calls have. that's the list they were always going to have to put up. keep calling until the processors are made to give up enforcement of that list. do not stop calling.

Good morning. Did you call your local censorious payment processor and let them know you’re upset with their bullying of Steam and itchio? No time better than the present yellat.money

i'm going to keep making adult art and so should you. humans have been recreating sacred glimpses of sucking and fucking ever since we had enough hand dexterity to hold tools, and these rat kings of capitalism are at best a few centuries old. don't be scared, art and our humanity will outlive them

instead of vowing to take itch down with your justified anger, redirect that anger at the institutions who are directly responsible for strong arming every single platform that sells adult and/or queer art:

If you want to actually solve the problem, instead of punishing itch, start calling payment cos Collective Shout, which is run by people who get published by Spinifex, a very terf-seeming organization, apparently needed 1,000 people to yell at visa to get this done. We got more than 1000 people.

preaching to the choir, but this would obviously be financially devastating to many independent comic and game artists using itch to release queer or adult works, myself included - around half of my annual income comes from itch comic sales every year
