Good to see this getting the attention it deserves. Your users are watching @bsky.app. Time is yours to step up or flop on this front.

you don't understand. as someone who isn't inherently good at art, stealing paintings from the museum is the *only* way i'm able to express myself creatively. i wouldn't be able to paint beautiful portraits. but by breaking into a museum and stealing the paintings, now i am

Looks like we have to bring this back

Time to post it again.

Ancient Irish proverb.

There is no separating the art from the artist. If you buy Harry Potter shit, you are funding transphobic campaigning. It’s that simple.

You can't be pro-unions and also pro-AI. AI is the ULTIMATE scab.

Indie comedy audio drama, Forgive Me! has only 10 days left in their campaign to fund their next season (including a #TTRPG episode called Hymnals & Hydras, co-starring me). They're 50% of the way to their funding goal! Tithe to indie audio drama! 🙏♥️🛐🐉 www.indiegogo.com/projects/for...

Look out! It's coming!!! The collection basket! Plz drop a coin in our crowdfund 🥺

using chatgpt should be something people are embarrassed to admit

your regular reminder that buying Harry Potter stuff gives money to Rowling and she uses that money directly and in large quantities to fund attacks on trans people no ethical consumption under capitalism and all but “don’t buy Potter stuff” is an extremely easy baseline to follow

Authors, it has neger been more important to make “AI cannot be used at any point of the process of bringing my book to market” a part of your contracts. It’s not enough to tell them you don’t want it. You have to make it **a breach of contract** for them to do it. #booksky

We stand together or we all fall. - NO AI audiobooks - NO AI covers - NO AI book trailers - NO AI character drawings - NO AI marketing copy - NO AI “research” - NO AI editors - NO AI translation - NO AI at all

Very weird to see writers cheering for A.I. audiobooks. This is the same horrible machine that they want to replace YOU. Audiobook narrators are your peers.

“I asked ChatGPT-“ okay well I asked the big oak tree at the center of the woods and she said you’re a lazy dork

Go listen to The Kingmaker Histories, it's delightful in every way and I hope they get ten thousand more downloads in their season break.

I forgot to mention this but the @redracula.bsky.social podcast started again on its annual cycle on 3rd May. This full cast near exact adaptation of Bram Stokers novel releases episode on the days mentioned in the various entries in the book . #AudioDrama #Dracula #AudioFiction #AudioDramaSunday

After a month of podcasting chaos, we've got quite the list of shows to check out for the 2025 Podcast Jam, with over 20 new audio drama pilots. Event participants are currently finishing up their episodes ahead of submissions, and we can't wait to share more info with you in the coming weeks!

It's Dracula Day!! The first episode of the season is back on our podcast feed! 🦇🦇🦇

Writers: gen ai is theft Artists: gen ai is theft Narrators: gen ai is theft Environmentalists: gen ai is killing the planet Scientists: gen ai is killing the planet Tech bros: BUT MAKE BRAIN WORK MUCH HARD NEED MACHINE FOR BIG THOUGHT

The best thing any allies can do is get in touch with places and check they’re trans inclusive, tell them you’re not trans if you like, or let them guess when they see you, but let them know it’s a deal breaker

It's MANTELOPE MONDAY. Like or repost to give Skullcrusher a little treat.

Someone on TikTok pointed out that Pedro Pascal’s two sentence Instagram comment got more press for trans rights than all trans people combined in the wake of this ruling- which is infuriating but also a reason for more cis people to speak out

In honour of @forgivemeshow.bsky.social crowdfund, here's a throwback to a drawing Meg did around the time that our crossover episode came out.

Happy Jeeksday! For our Jeeksday we would like 2k YT subscribers - and then a games night stream to celebrate! www.youtube.com/@RPGeeksDND

Death Of The Author is a literary framework for interpreting a text, not a free 'abdicate responsibility' card and I'm fed up with people using it to wash their hands of the terrible things the people they support do with their money and influence

If you play Hogwarts Legacy, it you buy fancy new editions of the Harry Potter books, it you buy Robert Galbraith books, then this is where your money is going.

JKR funded the campaign group behind all this btw. This is why we beg you to stop engaging with Harry Potter media.

Remember that laws don't make culture, people do that. Build your community, stand up for your community, create the culture we need Sometimes that means fighting like hell, sometimes that's a cup of tea and a kind word I believe in us ❤️

still obsessed with the fact that fawx&stallion creators are so brave, talented and sexy and gave us the best season finale ever

Here is today’s reminder that trans rights are human rights. We will always be a safe space for anyone under the trans umbrella 🏳️‍⚧️ We’ve posted this for the US before, but the statement still stands for those of us in the UK too.

this is why people are begging you to stop engaging with HP media, she's actively and enthusiastically financing this shit

me (three coffees no lunch alive in 2025): why am i anxious

It boils my piss that the news stories are continuously 'are we over-diagnosing mental health problems?' rather than 'oh my God what have we DONE to ourselves that SO many people are SO profoundly unhappy and anxious and unwell?'

We're $126 away from 20% now! igg.me/at/forgive-me-s4

I only just realised that Forgive Me! is crowdfunding rn and you'd best believe I went and supported them IMMEDIATELY. One of my absolute favourite audio dramas, literally everyone should go and listen to the show and also throw them some money if they can because I am dying for more!!

I almost forgot to post this, and it's the perfect day for it.

From now until May 1, 50% of proceeds from sales of the Re: Dracula Audiobook and Re: Carmilla Supercut will be going to the Palestine Children's Relief Fund!

It's the Ides of March! But what happened afterwards? I wrote a Roman comedy series all about it: brainy Octavian and brawny Mark Antony try to run Rome together! With Andy Secombe as Lepidus, who just wants to have a nice day podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/c...

If anyone suggested I use "AI" for art or writing I would cave their skull in with a fire extinguisher

just fyi the ides of march is coming up, if anyone would like to do the funniest thing of all time

As we work hard behind the scenes on the rest of Season One, please enjoy this bonus minisode from the team at The Holmwood Foundation!

And to be so very clear, JKR has openly stated that the money she makes from Harry Potter (in all its forms, right now) goes directly to conservative and specifically anti-trans causes. Do not financially engage with Harry Potter. Don't even engage with it for free. It's a Faustian IP, do not.
