Making the meaningful art that enriches your lives requires the artist to be able to experience and indulge in life to extract its inspiration. Which they cannot do if they are working 4 jobs to make ends meet so that you can enjoy it for free. This is not hard.

Y'all. Please remember the artists that drew these things when sending around memes. I feel for these artists who NEVER get credited for these (and some, nowadays, are even being accused of being AI!) Here's a few common ones I see (feel free to add others, I want this to be a living thread): 🧵

RIP Marjane Satrapi (1969-2026)

"Listen. I don't like to preach, but here's some advice. You'll meet a lot of jerks in life. If they hurt you, remember it's because they're stupid. Don't react to their cruelty. There's nothing worse than bitterness and revenge. Keep your dignity and be true to yourself." - Marjane Satrapi

Nothing like getting excited about a game/show/movie/etc and then discovering they used AI for some part of it

Happy #StarWarsDay! May the Force be with you 🌠 #throwback #starwars #maythefourth #starwarsday #leiaorgana #digitalart #artoftheday

PICK IT UP.

comics are so good, i wish people could get paid a livable wage for them

you just lost my respect my guy #antiai

I don’t “network,” I make friends. Other artists are not my competition, they’re my beloved peers and sources of inspiration. We all have the same goal; to share our art. I’m not gonna corporatize my human relationships with them. I am in my sandbox playing and I hope they join me.

Old Persona 5's Joker doodle from a while back that I'm not sure if I posted here before! (It's been a while since I drew something that has an actual (loose) lineart instead of my usual style, though ofc I'm not counting the stained glass/neon, those are MOSTLY lineart 😂) #digitalart #persona5

I don't want to shoot videos I don't want to post tutorials I don't want to show my process I don't want to pour varnish I don't want to turn my canvas I don't want to record my screen I don't want to cultivate parasocial relationships I just want to make pictures and shitpost

Here's a quick throwback to my old Song Poster Project from a while back, this time with the whole Self-ISH album by Will Wood (& the Tapeworms), back when I was still starting to experiment with my faux neon style.

We’re cooking on Beyond the Spider-Verse!!! So excited to share these new stills… see you in IMAX on June 18, 2027!! 🕷️

Happy 20 years of Neil banging out the tunes! #illustration #rat #NeilBangingOutTheTunes

I am so genuinely thankful to the people responsible for the tech and broadcast control for making it possible for all Humankind to be part of this from the commodity of our homes. This has been absolutely incredible #ArtemisII

I just got the dumbest idea for a tarot card, I might actually need to draw it

Hey hey! I'm back from the (almost) dead with the few next D&D Stained Glass lockscreens! #FreebieFriday #DnD #DungeonsandDragons

SCREAMING THIS FROM THE FUCKING ROOFTOPS

Glaze 2.2 is out. It is an update for Windows users to support recent NVidia GPUs (including 50xx GPUs). Downloads at: glaze.cs.uchicago.edu Mac users do not need to update. We are also updating Nightshade to fix the True bug and also support new GPUs. That update is coming in the next few days.

New icon for a new season, with some witchy flowery vibes to go along with it (also yes, I am still here! I've just been sick/busy for most of this past winter, but that's nothing new)  🌼🌸 Happy Spring! 🌷💐

it’s come to my attention that my tumblr post has been crossposted to bluesky, so I’m posting it on my account here #AntiAI #GenAI

Here are the first Freebie Friday lockscreens for 2026! Starting off strong with the most voted classes at my ig: Bard, Cleric, & Rogue (though I added Dungeon Master too because DMs should be celebrated) in my ol' stained glass style ✨ Let me know which classes you'd like to see next!

Hey there, lovely people! We're halfway through winter already! ⛄❄ To celebrate the solstice and the holidays, I bring you a -25% at my INPRNT Shop You can use the discount code "AESXMPIZ" to get anything you want from my shop (valid until January 4th) 💜

Keep going. Be meaner. Aim whatever lizard-brain impulse you have towards cruelty and violence in this direction.

I love not using AI, I love not letting my brain atrophy, I love having critical thinking and creating with my own developed skill, I love being rewarded by my hard work

The handmade, human qualities of your work are more valuable than they've ever been. Don't doubt that for a second.

Addendum to this excellent post: You do not have to be good at something to have fun. Don't hold yourself up to hyperrealistic or professional or your favourite ___ standards. You're new and learning! Be YOU, not a copy of someone else.

#SaveSpeech The call campaign is having an effect! The pressure right now is integral, if you are making calls, PLEASE KEEP CALLING. If you havent called yet or took a break, now is a GREAT time to hop on and add to the pressure!

My fellow Europeans, I'm once again asking you to write or call your EU representatives and tell them this is unacceptable. They're essentially selling our sensitive data to companies, effectively destroying our privacy and risking our digital well-being. Check the site! fightchatcontrol.eu

Some more #FreebieFriday lockscreens, and this time I'm bringing back the #ShowtuneProject with the few #35mmAMusicalExhibition pieces I made ❤  (I may be thinking of revisiting these, but we'll see!)

Art does not get easier the better you get at it. Making art is hard. Making art is fun. Making art frustrating. Making art is passion. Making art is a lot of blood sweat and tears. And I love every moment of the process.

the nyt posts this stuff like avoiding AI for 48 hours is hard and meanwhile i have literally never once intentionally used an AI program for anything ever

Python was awarded a funding grant, funding grant asked Python foundation to remove all diversity and inclusion initiatives they have. Python foundation said no and rejected the grant. If you use Python, send a few dollars to the charity to keep it going. I’m pushing a dono on behalf of ScamGuard.
