I strongly suggest checking into yourself about this bias—same for writers who only ever describe the skin of POC. I used to do the same and had to unpack it! Ask yourself why it's only the POC who is described in your approach, and why there is an assumption your audience holds the same bias.

I've noticed for a while now, how some artists treat white people as the default in alt text. For instance, "Two men, one of whom is dark-skinned," is similar to what I've seen. Imagine listening to this as a descriptor. You're being guided to assume one is white and the other isn't—an outlier.

"You're gonna turn people away from you if you make such a big deal about being against GenAI all the time." I guarantee you that the most powerful microscope in existence could not fathom a small enough fuck that I could give. Fuck Generative AI. 💖

Don’t forget what’s happening in our state. Please. This is my home and these abhorrent demons are STILL KIDNAPPING PEOPLE.

Goat Knight art from over a year ago I never ended up finishing. Probably going to redesign her anyway but I will at least send what I got. 🐐🪓 #oc #art #ocsky

Totally did not stay up all night working on this Anyway, a symmetrical drawing of Femi 💙 [ #dnd #dndoc #ocsky #ttrpg #ttrpgoc #art ]

applied for an animation class at school I discovered approximately three hours before the application was due and whipped up a piece with the application prompt "orca opera!" I'm really pleased with how this turned out - and for those curious, I did in fact get in! #wednesdayweeklies

Discord served its purpose almost flawlessly by 2021 and then constantly made itself worse over the ensuing years The constant drive to change products that serve their purpose perfectly well really does exemplify the problems with an "endless growth" mindset

Hey y'all. A South African dev released a blackity black game during BHM and it's currently getting the usual suspects in the reviews. Imma grab this up myself anyway, but can we all be some chums and help push the racists out of the reviews? 🙂

Your favorite progressive politicians are extremely horny for bills that restrict access. Elizabeth Warren is notoriously anti-SWer and keeps putting her name on these bills. Said before will say again: even Bernie Sanders signed off on FOSTA-SESTA before he VERY tepidly said he shouldn't have.

Wake up puppet boy 🎪🎠 I've redesigned him so many times that Ive basically fully repainted this maybe 15 times so I giveth up here he is, I will just design him 500 outfits and masks to cycle to resolve this issue

Mind you this is no backtrack, they are just gaslighting you into thinking this won't affect you and the people you care. Tumblr, Google, Facebook all these tech fuckers said the same and look where we are right now. No more giving the tech industry an inch.

My "I ditched AI for real artists" client is now at 146% funded and climbing. Let's reward good behavior by keeping it going. They will be commissioning more art in the stretch goals so if you're into board games/party games, please consider backing! #BSNM #Gaming

You could take the money you’re spending on Discord Nitro for custom emotes and 1. use Vencord instead to get that shit for free so you can 2. pay me that money and get a picture every month

NOT FOR LIKE YOUR HOME MAILING ADDRESS I SHOULD CLARIFY. If we're close friends you can give me that if you want and we can be pen pals but mostly I mean like for your other socials and your email address

Friends, comrades, countrymen, anyone who would like to take this time to ensure you have multiple ways to keep in touch with people you care about online, personally or professionally: if I am one of those people please email or DM me. I'd like to put together an address book for safekeeping 💜

As a user affected by the Australian rollout: they're lying about pre-verification. Every Australian Discord user with whom I regularly interact is over 30, but we were still all required to verify

wonder what the odds are on getting people to pummel Discord with physical mail. like do other people even keep stamps around anymore? i mail stuff for a living idk what everyone else is doing

Re: Discord garbage Dont fall for this wishy washy bullshit made to placate you, get the fuck off dont analyze me!!

exactly and I want to have my NSFW channels and talk to other adults about how much I like drawing dick!! not sorry about it! it's not okay to write this off for "just" being NSFW channels! also op is right, we queers are getting shafted again no doubt.

Hey y'all, I made a document to condense my experiences with DayLITE if you'd like to give it a read. He deleted a lot of his chat groups that I was in, so I wasn't able to grab a whole lot of screen shots - I'm pretty sure he even edited our own DM. docs.google.com/document/d/1...

1/ ProPublica collected handwritten letters in mid-January from children held at the Dilley Immigration Processing Center, the same facility where 5-year-old Liam Conejo Ramos was taken. Hundreds of kids are still detained. We’ll let the children’s words speak for themselves. 🧵

Here's the link for their "teen council" application form that's linked on their page and in which is the only way of feedback for these changes. I'd suggest flooding it to all hell with demanding the changes to not go through. Inconvenience them. docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F...

Make sure to make a support account that ISNT tied to your Discord email and identity to leave these comments. I dunno if Discord has ever done reprisal for resisting their bullshit but - for incredibly obvious reasons - I would not trust them.

Do not leave Discord yet. Prep your alternatives. Have your backups. Research. But. Cancel your Nitro. Send an email or support form a day. Call if you like. If you couldn't before for the Visa card shit, now is the time. And above all else; stand by your communities. Fight. FIGHT.

we may require your government ID, legal name, and full address, but we delete that information as soon as we verify your age! (three weeks pass) hey so our servers got hacked and you guys are not gonna believe what happened to your government IDs, legal names, and full addresses that we deleted

i care abt kids big time but increasingly of the feeling that kids safety online is a parenting and childs support network problem and not my issue as its so often a trojan horse for regressive ideas

Have a random space dragon I drew a while back May revisit this for fun because I don't like how I made the wisp into a weird black hole thing to the top right 🤔

One of the first instances of me featuring terrasmith abilities as I move away from DnD to work on my own project. Aurelious crafting his body/armor with threads of gold. #OCsky #demon #art

As a backup, you can always file a chargeback with your bank or method of payment and state “I want to cancel the service but was not provided a working means to do so.”

I drew another egret. #Egret #Pastels #KidLit

Guys, dont immediately jump ship. Complain on Discords forums. Spam their emails. Make noise. We'll never tackle the overlying problem if we just keep jumping ship. Discord is easy to bully out of doing shit. We've made them stop doing NFT shit. We can stop them taking ID's. :)

I was incorrect when I stated 70,000+ government IDs were exposed. I apologize. The number exposed was actually over TWO MILLION 💀 cybersecuritynews.com/discord-data...

To repeat. -- And to repeat: The political faction saying we must all have to log legal ID before speaking or accessing speech on the Internet, and the political faction who believe transgenderism is a dangerous mental contagion that spreads by speech about transgenderism, are the same faction.
