lmao even the machine doesnt consider AI images to be art

We have stopped business with this company years ago after their very pro MAGA and anti-LGBTQIA+ came to light. This is just the last drop. All our products are now made by fellow small business artists. Do not support people like this. Support within your own community. Be kind.

If you’ve ever wanted to know what it’s like to be a fucking idiot, all you have to do is smoke enough weed. That shit is the Idiot Simulator 4000. It does admittedly help if you, like me, are already a little dumb

"but art should be accessible" it is, you can learn to draw, paint, collage, sculpt, make pixels. right now, starting today. art has never been more accessible monetarily nor physically than it is now in this age. access to artist labor and machine production is not an accessibility issue.

this is my fucking kryptonite.

One thing to note when you are paying an artist for their labor, and those prices seem steep, is that in the world of freelance, it’s feast or famine and more usually famine, so the price is also about covering the times where there’s no work coming in. Working in animation showed me that…

Literally me

posting this here too but: black people who struggle with mental health and are disordered are more likely to be killed/assaulted by police during a crisis. acab forever.

i hate the idea of minorities, ESPECIALLY TRANS PEOPLE AND POC, having to be kind to their oppressors and beg for compassion and forgiveness that shit has gotten us NOWHERE and honestly just sets us back farther. fuck your liberal garbage.

No one is coming to save us, it sucks. It does. But we aren’t powerless.

It starts with you, y’know.

when the AI bubble finally collapses and everyone who spent a year smugly hyping it suddenly has to come crawling back with their tail between their legs, i just want to say i am not going to be the bigger person about it. i am going to be meaner than you can even believe

o man the furry fandom is SUCH a white dominated space it makes me a lil insane!! its hard to find other poc furries out there, and it makes me appreciate bipoc only spaces like the @bipocfurdiscord.bsky.social !!!

the erasure of who we are by silence and distancing from not just race but the depoliticizing that exists within furry makes it hard to feel like i am being truly seen and understood. the idea of no politics in furry is violent.

tbh my big thing is how it feels like the fandom doesn't make more of an effort to ostracize conservative and right wing furs it feels unsafe when I see a fur with american flags adorning their profiles when my people are being rounded up by ice on the daily

we should be pushing these people out, furry is built on us being marginalized freaks. that doesn't mean that your white, cishet fur shouldn't be here, but it should be up to them to push their more dangerous brethren out of the space. is shouldn't fall on bipoc furs to do that, we want to feel safe

Stripe says it’s accepting payments for LGBTQ content JVA site starts working with Visa again Mastercard reportedly panicking and making Riot moderate messages The tide is turning We are going to win this Keep calling Keep writing Keep fighting You can do this

we've kinda lost the plot on sharing art online and the relationship between artist and art appreciator. i dont wanna get into it because im exhausted by other things go on, but if i ever hear someone refer to art as "content" and the appreciation of said art as "consuming" again ill kill.

I've noticed since the pandemic the "I got mine" selfish attitude has really become prevalent. It's disappointing to see how fractured communities like furry and LGBTQ+ have become.

Doesn't matter if you're a SFW furry, furry art AS A WHOLE is considered kink. We're all on the same sinking ship.

US Park Police now doing traffic stops in DC, and charged at me with a baton for filming closer than they liked

I am an adherent to the philosophy that all the best artists are perverts in some way, if not openly then privately. What is perversion if not having unchecked passion, the same passion that fuels artistry.

Piece of shit ICE fascists are swarming Little Tokyo. Posted up outside the Japanese American Museum threatening people with internment. Impossible to overstate how disgusting these people are.

OpenAI is now openly suggesting people use chatGPT for mental health, to „untangle their thoughts” to help them „think more clearly” or if they need to decide whether to „break up with their boyfriend”. This is unacceptable. Somebody will die. They know that. They don’t care. Fuck them.

The dykefag label is so good. Like Hell yeah, it’s gay no matter who I’m into, my gender is incomprehensible to mortal minds

FUN I’M HAVING FUN 🎈🎊🪅🪄🎉🎉🎉

Hey, so, TOTALLY not suggesting that RFK Jr. BACKS DOWN when we PUSH BACK, BUT if you’d like to call… HHS Toll-Free: 1-877-696-6775 HHS Direct Line: 202-690-7000 PLEASE share and consider calling your senators and representatives as well. NONE of this is okay. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Cruisader cat was in the #Anthrocon fursuit parade They won't allow poodlers but they'll allow nazis?? Anthrocon is officially a nazi convention (if your con allows nazis, it's a nazi con) #Anthrocon2025

I dont "NETWORK", I do not "keep a consistent schedule", I don't try to make my art "stand out" on people's feeds. I POST MY ART. And if it flops, I DON'T CARE.

Hey, it would mean so much to me if y'all kept up the pressure with phone calls to payment processors to show to them how much people care and that they can't just ignore it—my livelihood depends on adult games not being censored!

Always carry a treat in case you meet a puppy.

Good worldbuilding demands negative space: things that are referenced but not explained, bits of the world that seem fascinating but are left in the background.

Being "weird" is simply a side effect of being authentic.

Let that sink in for a sec.

there are guys with boobs: that's me

Note to self 2.0 🖊️

Having lived in Atlanta for 20 years and visiting folks all over TX it’s true. Remember in a lot of southern states- 10 people in rural small towns count more than a thousand people in the city.

this is me in case you were wondering

Been saying this for years. Abolish the supreme court. Not reform it, abolish it. Lifetime appointments and a history of almost exclusively being used as a tool for radically curtailing the rights of people demonstrate it shouldnt exist.

the way intersex has been degraded into a porn term is honestly so infuriating and sickening... intersexism is so rampant and yet invisible thank you for the alternative terminology, by the way! very appreciated to have an idea of what terms to use for characters like this

(Made the mistake of searching 'intersex' without my expectations in hell's basement) #intersex #actuallyintersex

Because our stuff isn't "art" or because people deem it as a lower form - the work, no matter how many hours, skill, training is involved, our work is viewed as negligible. "Lol its just porn" " lol its just 30 years of anatomy, perspective, color theory, training various mediums "

"What could they have done to improve the new Lilo and Stitch?" Oh so this may be a nitpicky thing, and seem a little arbitrary, small, a thing people generally wouldn't notice when watching ga movie - But a little thing they could have done was : Not make it.

You can't be "Pro-sex work" if you're puritanically demonizing NSFW Artists! NSFW ARTISTS ARE DOING SEX WORK!!

this is my favorite video because it perfectly demonstrates the Two Wolves concept. Wolf A is just chillin on the ground contentedly. Her sister, Wolf B, walks over, carefully assesses the situation, then gingerly proceeds to sit on Wolf A. Wolf A is displeased, as B reaches gormlessness apotheosis
