As a lover of space this is probably one of the coolest pieces I've had the pleasure of working on: commission for @aceknignt.bsky.social - thank you!
Put Universe Sandbox 2 music on repeat for this, super fitting.

A five panel digital art piece featuring different celestial phenomena. The center panel is diamond shaped, and contains a depiction of two anthro characters facing 3/4 away, floating between the viewer and a spiral galaxy. The character on the left is a "void lynx" wearing a dark blue tailcoat with gold accents including a large outline of an eye on the upper back, and his arms are held out as if presenting the scene to the other character. The character on the right is a space themed deer with short grey hair and bluish antlers, wearing a space pattern hoodie and grey long pants. There is a small orb floating above his head. On each of the far lateral corners are faint eyes. The rest of the image is divided evenly into quadrants, and the white dividing lines appear to have small clusters of crystals growing from them. The upper left quadrant shows half of a black hole glowing orange and yellow at the far end, with a blue band at the event horizon. The upper right quadrant shows a comet similar to Hale-Bopp oriented southeast with a central white dust tail and a blue gas tail. There are several small pieces breaking off, one of which appearing like a blue eye. The bottom left quadrant shows a meteor shower oriented northwest, and one of the meteors appears to be an eye. The bottom right quadrant shows the seven phases of the moon arranged in an arc, with the central full moon appearing to be the iris of an eye.

MAKE YOUR CALLS!!!

WHY?
On July 2025, Steam, a popular storefront to purchase games on PC, and itch.io, a storefront that sells
games, comics, tools, resources and much more, have recently delisted several NSFW games, after the
group Collective Shout published an open letter to payment processors such as Visa, MasterCard, PayPal,
and more. As a result of this letter, payment processors have strongarmed Valve and itch.io into enforcing
restrictive new TOS policies on what kind of content their platforms can host and sell.

Visa, Mastercard, Stripe and Paypal have been censoring free speech and legal business on the internet for TOO LONG. Their most recent targets are Steam and Itch.io, but they have also been pressuring websites like Pixiv, Patreon, Fansly, Onlyfans and MORE for years, applying draconian standards for what kind of adult/pornographic content platiorms and their users can host and sell.

If we as consumers and creators want to regain ground on this issue, we have to make our voice heard.

HOW?
BOMBARD THEM WITH PHONE CALLS
Collective Shout, the organization that lobbied to have Steam and Itch.io change their TOS, did so with only around 1000 phone calls. Visa and MC have backed down from pressuring Onlyians to remove adult content entirely due to public backlash. Clogging their phone lines for an extended perlou, over a mont at the absolute least, will almost gudrantee that these compantes will at least have to pay attention to the backlash. this list is not exhaustive. but some contact points for the 4 targets are:

1. VISA:
(US + Can): +1 [8001-847-2911
US option selection for operator: 1-1-2 or 1-1-3

2. MASTERCARD:
(US): +1 (8001-307-7309
US option selection for operator: 1-1-2-2-2-1
Phone (outside US): 1-636-722-7111

3. STRIPE:
(Headquarters): +118881 963-8955
(France): +33 805-11-19-67
Stripe: complaints@stripe.com

4. PAYPAL:
(US): +1 (888)-221-1161

Customer Service: +1 (877)-569-1116

I don’t care if you hate porn. Please for the love of god don’t get stuck there cognitively.

Anti-porn legislation + how trans and NB people (even cis drag queens/kings) are being consistently described as sexually deviant = the groundwork is being laid for all queer expression to be made illegal.

Mike Stabile @mikestabile.bsky.social · May 8

Well, here we go. The GOP has just introduced a bill to effectively outlaw all pornography.

The bill dismantles the Supreme Court's Miller Test for obscenity, removing provisions that the content be patently offensive to community standards.

Wondering why you're not seeing the American people's rising up across the country?

Because suppression of information is what the 5 dictators across the world want.

Please SHARE THIS and call your reps to say 'NO!' to this bill ASAP:

It's discriminatory and blatantly immoral.

If you believe in basic Human Rights, PROTEST WIDELY AND DEMAND JUSTICE FOR ALL AFFECTED!

GenAI is a tool of fascism. Don't use it.

Big tech is pushing AI to:
Destroy art/artists because they may inspire resistance
Censor knowledge by manipulating search results
Make young people/students dependent and unable to research, write and think critically
