....alright, hit me. I'll be genuinely surprised if this gets filled.
Give me six OCs to make an Adventuring Party!

Share an OC ref in the comments and I'll pick one for each party role!

Morbid curiosity compels me. (See? It's not just political reposts. I do shitpost and post my art from time to time.)

People like @schumer.senate.gov are like they same people who thought they could pull one under the likes of the N***s in Zentrum during Weimar Germany. Cowards in the face of hardship with no spine with only the craven desire for political power.

I really love this Vincent Van Gogh quote:

"To do good work one must eat well, be well housed, have one's fling from time to time, smoke one's pipe, and drink one's coffee in peace."

No romanticizing the starving artist. Van Gogh said UBI all the way.

America is so racist that some Americans believed SNAP benefits were for white people and food stamps were for black people and they did not know they were the same thing and are now horrified to learn they are losing their food subsidies.

It's (finally) done.

I can finally relax. Time to run around silly in video games, watch spooky movies, and otherwise enjoy Halloween.

Amazon is helping fund a $300 million build of a ballroom for the White House.

Independent bookstores are donating to food banks and organizations that help with food insecurity.

They are not the same.

Your ability to eat should not depend on your productivity

Your ability to get healthcare should not depend on your productivity

Your ability to get housing should not depend on your productivity

Saying “be more productive!” To those who are struggling devalues human life.

It aids fascism.

People who see somebody's artwork then has the utter audacity to feed it into a genAI machine and then post the result under the original creator should be publicly flogged. And not in a metaphorical sense.

I actually think it's extremely good and healthy to experience art that makes you uncomfortable. discomfort is not equivalent to real, tangible harm. at the very least y'all should recognize uncomfortable art's right to exist, and to carry on with your life without making it everyone else's problem.

I had a thought last night.

If people scrape and trawl the internet for more art to feed into their AI generators, then isn't it my duty, my moral imperative, to make the most hideous, unpolished, ugly, gods-awful-to-look-at art that ever existed?

US federal employees are being deprived of income in order that a world-famous pedophile can continue to cover up the fact that he raped multiple children over decades. The press and the media are choosing the degree to which they obfuscate this.

So this is as far as I got with making my paintings of Alex Shepherd and Murphy Pendleton, before my drawing tablet gave out.

I have four more pieces I'm going to try and complete, but I'll have to switch to a traditional medium to finish them. Gonna go for 'watercolors' (heavily diluted gouache).

I think, after 13 years, my drawing tablet has finally given up the ghost.

Sorry for the radio silence & the drought of art. I've had to shift my sleep schedule to normal hours, which drained my energy for a few weeks. I hope to finish the remaining SH paintings before the end of October, and I've put myself in a position to concentrate on doing so. We'll see how it goes.

Can I just say how fucking ridiculous it is that queer and nsfw art is more heavily regulated than the fucking plagiarism machine destroying our planet that is genAI
