Don't mention NSFW and don't mention the word commission as well, to be safe.

Sharing to help many. Keep going guys and be careful.
Apparently P*ypal now asks for customer opinions on accounts sending invoices.
If you are paying an invoice to a nsfw artist, do NOT mention NSFW in any way, keep it blank even. you risk both your account and the artists.

WIKIPEDIA IS AN AMAZING FREE DICTIONARY!! Seriously!! I use it all the time, if I can't remember a word in a language, I just look it up in a different language and I get the best translation service out of it!!

USe it use it use it!!
wikipedia's data shows that AI is siphoning traffic away from the site, which is a danger to its sustainability. ironically Wikipedia is more important than ever to users who want reliable information instead of slop, and to AI companies that need it for training data www.404media.co/wikipedia-sa...
Wikipedia Says AI Is Causing a Dangerous Decline in Human Visitors
“With fewer visits to Wikipedia, fewer volunteers may grow and enrich the content, and fewer individual donors may support this work.”

Freelance illustration gigs drying up. Ad agencies using Midjourney instead of hiring human artists. Costume design turned over to AI wholesale. Good work vanishing.

These are the stories of working visual artists, who describe losing jobs, wages, and hope as their clients and bosses embrace AI.

Here are some available tattoo designs that I made!

Inspired by the Japanese Dogwood tree, these floral arrangements are ready to adorn your body. 🌸

These will only be tattooed once, first come first served.

Israel bombed a hospital.

Rescue workers and reporters rushed to recover the dead and the wounded.

Israel bombed the hospital again. Live on TV.

Read that again.

Our government’s legacy will be its complicity in crimes against humanity. End all arms sales to Israel, now.

If you’re going to pick a personal post to like solely to promote your course/vitamins/tours/whatever to me, I will screenshot your product to make sure I NEVER get it and follow up with a block.

It’s cringe, it’s pathetic, stop it. *rolls up newspaper*
Welp, I finally was brave enough to advocate for myself and get a referral for a breast reduction, only to find out that even with a referral my insurance won’t cover it.

Back to square 1. 😭

Portfolio update : The Mirror of Pride
"She's been following me for several days; I only see her at dusk. She always stays about ten paces away. When I confront her, she claims to be my shadow. I then asked her if I was her light. She replied that I was confusing my pride with her patience."

Many of you still don't get how these Gaza fundraisers came about & that they are more about you than about Palestinians in Gaza. I keep explaining this in every podcast I've been on lately...but let me write a thread as well: These fundraisers exist to snuff out your relationship with Palestinians

Alongside tattoos I've been working on various commission and here's one I can finally share! This one was for a birth announcement card I had the absolute pleasure, and honor, of making. 😊
