thank you for the responses!! 🐎 (I haven't started making a decision yet, there's still time to leave your availability below. In the meantime I'm enjoying everyone's lovely art)

one of the reasons i am always on about elite persuasion is that i have seen elite persuasion operate in real time. as toby documents here, the radical anti-trans push in the uk didn't come from some "bottom-up backlash," but was orchestrated and organized primarily at the most elite levels

haha I REALLY want to get the FAHAH vol 2 kickstarter done this year... the vol 1 crowdfund took a lot out of me but it was also one of the most fun things I've ever done and I LOVE the final book. It's silly but I want to do the vol 2 kickstarter before the story finishes posting on tapas!

WAAAAA IT'S HERE (´▽`ʃƪ)♡ this is the only place you can read my wormfucker ecohorror novella EXCORIATE right now!

HEY I have a list of potential artists somewhere that I made but I wanted to gauge availability from a wider crowd! Are there any m/m-likin' artists out there who would potentially be interested in doing a guest art print for the FAHAH Vol 2 kickstarter? ~$250 (more details below)

www.tigertigercomic.com Hey... it's a new page of Tigers haha! ❤️‍🔥

Last summer, itchio deleted 2 of my books and made my nsfw work impossible to search for! I no longer make any money there unless I'm in a huge bundle. This is why I started @ddmarket.online !Our very first bundle goes live in 2 days and it RULES. Support taboo creators against censorship! 🔞 🗣️

Just got home from Greater Austin Book Fest!! I had an absolutely wonderful time discovering new local authors AND picking up some new books by old favorites! ❤️ Excited to try applying next year! (also can you tell I was EXTREMELY HYPED about the grackle merch courtesy of Austin Public Library??)

has anyone ever put together a pose/art reference pack that's just people holding dining utensils (or writing implements). asking for every comic artist in existence

COME SEE US AT STAPLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

1. It's my birthday 🎂 2. here's my annual birthday Prisma drawing ❤️

much has been said about the "old man" trope and the warped perception of age in tales rpgs but being in your thirties and acting like a senior citizen around 16-year-olds goes crazy sometimes

Central Texans, it's nearly time again for Staple Independent Media Expo @stapleexpo.bsky.social, April 11-12 at the Mabee Ballroom at St. Edward's University in Austin! I'll be with @vgeportfolio.com at Table 44 selling books, prints, bookmarks, and other things! 📚🖌️

The Five Calls app now has a script for you about not committing genocide in Iran. Please call and leave messages to your Reps and Senators. 5calls.org

I understand that most of us don't have the means to personally stop what's happening and there are many domestic victims of the US regime, but there's something very grim and galling about seeing Americans post "we must find moments of joy" every time our government murders children.

NOW LIVE! Prideful angels, sinful demons, scheming princes and petty gods! The crowdfundr for the sequel to THE NIGHT PRINCE & THE ROSEFINCH is officially accepting pledges! Help me fund another beautiful softcover queerotic book with a fresh cover by @sjmillerart.com crowdfundr.com/secondbody

so like it doesn't even make the top 5 list of reasons not to use AI (ethical, moral etc) but putting aside everything else the concept phase should be where ideas are at their most HUGE and BOLD and uniquely yours, you're sifting for river rocks in your mind and they HAVE to be your own

Today is my birthday!!!!!🎂🎈Please look at my OC!!!!🥹 thank you.....

this year so far has been all about renegotiating my relationship with comics. I think I've come a long way in the last few months! For a VERY long time, I struggled with the burnout of finishing my first graphic novel, and I had every advantage in the form of an understanding editor/publisher

Let’s see, a new pinned post maybe. I am an illustrator and I also make pictures with my own hands for animation and games sometimes.

when goodreads automatically emails me to be like "you finished [book]!! what's next?" and I gotta be like I don't know goodreads. I really just don't know

I believe the whole point of making art is to be delighted by making it. Or perhaps more precisely to be gratified by making it--some art, for instance, comes from anger, and while anger is not delightful it is important to express, explain, convey, etc. That expression is gratifying.

Oh shit, #BandcampFriday is this Friday AND there are EIGHT planned for this year! Good job, Bandcamp team! If you're not familiar, on BCF, Bandcamp waives its cut of the profits, meaning 100% of your money goes to the artist. I've got a few great albums on my wishlist that I'm gonna grab

i am so humbled by the support for this, the project funded in less than 12 hours AND we hit the first stretch goal for mini prints?! thank you so much 🙇‍♂️💕💨

I miss when the cute animal videos my family sent me were real. I miss when I could enjoy a creative or inventive work instantaneously instead of after a cautious beat. I miss these tiny simple joys so much and the fact that their loss comes at such tremendous cost is the ultimate insult to injury

I know people on Bsky know this but I hope it filters out: The feds are OCCUPYING the Twin Cities. This is a blockade, a siege. They are shutting down economic and civic activity. They are conducting "papers please" stops. They are criminalizing being a bystander/witness. You could be next.

WALLFLOWER, my 3rd graphic novel, is officially available at bookstores and online everywhere!! please enjoy this story full of dreams, flowers, and hope.

It's Jobs Time. If you've wanted to try your hand at editing comic books (or crowdfunding them) at the best publisher ever, I suggest you apply. DO NOT SELF REJECT etc etc etc (reposting with actual correct link) www.linkedin.com/posts/vault-...

Heeeyy, we can finally talk about this! So, I would like to co-sign everything in this open letter. I would also like to tell everyone about a specific grievance that @femonologue.bsky.social and I have with Xellette after the mishandling of our kickstarter. Screencap/receipts in🧵 to follow!

A lot of us have actually made a webcomic ring called Chimera Comics after we left hiveworks: chimeracomics.org This isn't the full list as some artists want their hands completely washed of the situation, but this is a start!

The Hiveworks Artist Guild has released a public statement alleging years of labor abuses, financial mismanagement, and misconduct at Hiveworks at the hands of Xellette “Xel” Velamist and Isabelle “Isa” Melançon. Read their full statement at: cartoonist.coop/hiveworks-gu...

It's time for a new pinned post with some of my recent work. Hi! I'm Anya! I draw fantasy illustrations like these. I am open for work and also accept private commissions. 📩: [email protected] prints: www.inprnt.com/gallery/anya... portfolio: anyachalina.myportfolio.com

Weird to be commemorating the 250th anniversary of the Am Rev while living under a government that has a) sent armed troops to occupy cities perceived to be too rebellious, b) rendered largely irrelevant the representative branch of government, and c) claimed imperial right to rule other countries.

This is simply not technically possible. You cannot generate enough writing in-house to train an LLM. You cannot generate enough art in-house to train a GAN. People who think they have a model "trained on our own material" are using a base model of mass-scraped data, unknowingly or disingenuously.
