I really dislike the way that instagram pushing reels has seemingly incentivized a lot of artists to switch a lot of artists from posting their art in its finished form to posting tedious process videos with half a second of the finished work at the end

Giorgia Meloni, Italy's PM, is a far right fascist who supports Israel, but the general strike Italians carried out 2 days ago scared the shit out of her. Strikes are the most effective way to get politicians to do what you want them to do. Shut down profit and they stand to attention.

The outpouring of support from readers & colleagues is overwhelming. I can't imagine them coming together like this for a "problematic" trans woman even five years ago. If you want to help me make up the lost income from comics work, you can subscribe to my Patreon. www.patreon.com/c/scumbeliev...

Heard from a friend at Disney+ that there are multiple levels of freakout internally, both from internal dissatisfaction, concerns about subscription cancelations, and of course the big one: concern about a boycott spilling over into parks and cruises.

This gets to something that as a former stand-up I recognized but couldn’t name. A 31 year old professional content creator baiting 19 year old amateurs into the format of his choice isn’t debate, it’s crowd work. It’s debate-shaped crowd work farmed for content.

Hello everyone. You may know Gretchen Felker-Martin has once again been suspended from bc they do that whenever some chud complains. Her brand-new ongoing DC series was also cancelled for the same reason. It’s stupid fascist bullshit as usual. Gretchen’s work rules. Consider supporting her here:

i love tv guy

If you have tweeted out any kind of condolences about Charlie Kirk your penance is to donate to an abortion fund today, I’m serious.

Being informed that DC has cancelled Gretchen Felker-Martin's work to appease the whiners of the world. Should be a reminder for folks as to what Corporate IP comics actually are, because ppl forget and act like these enterprises are progressive to justify their consumption.

I used to do more Inks back in 2013, then I'd color them on photoshop. I wish I had room in my apartment to sit other than my PC or my bed cause the only opportunity for me to do inks is going outside now.

Reading a book about a guy going up an escalator (The Mezzanine, Nicholson Baker) and this is the wildest goddang paragraph

🚨Border Patrol arrested two firefighters who were actively fighting a wildfire at the time. When the other members of the crew asked for a chance to say goodbye, a Border Patrol agent told the crew member “you need to get the f*ck out of here. I’m going to make you leave.”

The Itch/Steam thing dropped off the trending tab. Therefore it's time to remind you again to swamp the payment processors with more calls. If the call volume dies down in under a week they aren't going to learn their lesson. Make them regret it.

Since 2021, Mastercard has been imposing strict regulations on platforms that use the company's financial services — and Steam appears to be their latest target. Tell Mastercard to reverse this harmful policy at action.aclu.org/petition/mas....

Weimar-era Germany was a hotbed for bold, fresh art, between Berlin’s thriving cabaret scene and subversive Expressionist films. Art did not save them. It will not save us. So why do we keep thinking it will? www.currentaffairs.org/news/dont-ex...

I hate seeing folks i agree with using gAI to make propaganda-style posters for things I support. Y’all. You cannot use the enemy’s tools to fight them. ESPECIALLY if you are arguing against capitalist overreach or for environmental issues. Come ON.

Alex's deadline is Saturday. If you've ever shared an 'oh no' comic - especially if you shared this doctored one with a fourth panel added! rude! - then chuck them a quick donation for their horrible, horrible legal battle.

Maybe I’m multiple artists, each with their own passions. One adores cute and funny animal art, another paleo and scientific illustrations, while others call for folklore, horror, children’s books, ceramics, plushies, animations, or photography. Whoever whispers loudest guides my hands. #art

So I hate to tag the mods- but I sent this email about the mass deletion of Palestinian accounts over a week ago to @support.bsky.team and I haven’t heard anything back (apologies if I somehow missed an email). I’d like to ensure it will be seen by the proper people.
