when community directly supports the artists we can bypass the censors; we don't need the studios & publishers an #artistcoop is possible now where we fund our media directly & nurture future creators

Becoming increasingly clear we’re gonna have to build a parallel infrastructure for all the media we really love. The reason all of this is happening under the color of law is hyperconsolidation, dissent being traded straight up for merger approval, or fear of harassment.

I hate when people of privilege announce that art, sport or music are non-political. What they really mean is that they don’t want their privilege challenged by uncomfortable truths. They want to enjoy themselves as Rome burns.

when division & One-Right-Way-isms are rampant i most rely on the three streams /|\ of druidry & the discipline of holding multiple perspectives. the human story is too vast & diverse for memes & gotcha-takes, so now's when i get extra curious about nuance

When I decided to start a fantasy worldbuilding project I was faced with the challenge of learning to draw environments. As a character artist this was way out of my comfort zone. I still have a lot to learn, but just making them exist is half the battle! You can make it good later!
