While defending the luddite argument in Discord, I stumbled into this IMO succinct explanation for opposing generative AI:
At every step in the process, it impoverishes us.

Since the Steam situation is the newest bee in my bonnet ... am I the only one who finds it interesting that after the AAA Industry was freaking out about indie games it is now the two biggest platforms for indie developers to be able to monetize their games that are being attacked?

yeah there's a lot of "create weird art" and not a lot of "your favorite artist can't balance their shitty dayjob and emergency expenses with creating art" or "your favorite artist is burnt out because they've been doing more commissions than personal art for years"

The true meaning of "The Great Despair," and the legit worst part of #Warframe 1999: when you hit Best Friends with everyone, and the daily messages stop coming. :( I'm begging you, DE: don't punish me for doing bounties. T_T
@foxsyn.bsky.social suggested this, and it is PAINFULLY ACCURATE.

Bit of a throwback, but I am vibrating out of my skin waiting for the #Warframe announcements during the Game awards.

Tonight's quick reminder: if someone posts a creative work, do not offer your critique unless the creator explicitly asked for it.
Unsolicited advice is criticism, always.

If you're an author or musician, don't bother following me if you have a generated AI banner or icon, I'll just block you. I'm not interested in puzzling out whether you're a thief or just a hypocrite.

I feel like it's really telling that a recurring complaint I see from a certain crowd about DATV is that you can't be an asshole to people...

Oh man, I haven't been here in a while.
Life has gone a bit crazy and I have been nursing an injured shoulder, but I'm still drawing when I can.
I have also fallen headfirst into #warframe .... so, hey, lemme come back with some WF fanart?
Quick study/style exploration on Amir.

I'm begging you please, if you have ever enjoyed erotic art of any kind, tell these websites like Patreon and Gumroad to stop censoring us! It's going to stop existing if you don't!

Oh man.
I've recently gone on a bit of a social media detox. Plenty of things (and sometimes also people) around that were not doing too good for my mental health.
I'm still drawing, learning, improving and focusing on my health.

Ahh, i can hear your cries already: "But I never know what to comment!"
As usual, you're overthinking things again. You don't need an essay!
The word "cool" has never and will never go out of style. Just cool. Boom, done.
Or!
Three emojis, any three except 💩, and make one a heart!
Easy, right?

I'm copying @geneljumalon.bsky.social 's Twitter post on this subject, but I made one for Bluesky because it's so important; these simple free actions are vital to an artist's success on this and any platform.

My year started out wild and I can't believe that we're already a month in.
Oh well. Hey, hi, hello, I'm still alive and still doing my thing. Here's a quick sketch during some dead time today.

Dear (especially youtube) reviewers: Learn some nuance!
'Reviews' along the lines of "this thing sucks, buy this instead!" and then 'this' being twice the price or a completely different usecase are not helpful.

The goal was to finish it by the 31st. So .... go me! Now to decide which one of the ones I have lying around here will be the next one.

I might have gone and bought a Switch and I don't think I have enjoyed gaming quite this much in YEARS.
I've always had a weird fondness for portable consoles and the Switch hits all the right spots.
