today is my 28th birthday! as we all know, sharing artists’ work makes them very happy.

thank you for all your continuing support and newfound friendships this year, it means the world to me.
one very green painting of my OC, mysterious skeleton girl, posing down on her knee. she has unnaturally long limbs. she’s holding a fossilised ichthyosaur skull sword on her shoulder and is wearing weird clothes that make her skeleton visible like on an x-ray. there’s a spirit of a hare in the background, running around with its eye gleaming red. a digital painting with three characters from kingdom come deliverance games standing one before the other: lady jitka, hans and henry. first comes lady jitka of kunstadt standing with her back to us. she is dressed in a dark reddish dress with white rim that slightly opens her shoulders, and a white waistband. she has black hair and warm skin and looks very delicate. next, standing face to face with her but looking sideways, is hand capon, her almost husband. he’s highest of the three of them, dressed is almost all white, with yellow hues. there’s somewhat lost look on his face. he holds jitka’s right hand in his left one up, but it doesn’t look like he’s doing it willingly. behind him, almost lost to the background and to the figures before him, stands henry. he’s holding his sword in his left hand, wearing a red glove. the blade of the sword stays between hans’ and jitka’s shoulders, not letting them come closer to each other. henry’s face is barely visible behind hans’ shoulder but he’s looking at jitka. not with hate, not with jealousy, more with acceptance and awareness. henry’s holding a wreath full of flowers and a red ribbon in his right hand. hans’ right one, instead of holding jitka’s, has found the wreath without having to look, and his and henry’s finger are touching. jitka knows. she’s looking down, trying to reach them with her fingers, but alas. that heart is already full. there are herbs’ silhouettes in the background. according to the list of plants with symbolism on wiki, here’s their meaning. astragalus for hans (your presence softens my pain), heliotrope for henry (emblem of faithfully devoted love), and rue for jitka (regret, sorrow, repentance, grace, clear vision , disdain). three sketches of my beagle, Bucky. he’s posing, asking for snacks, eyes wide and begging; he is lying curled into a ball, eyes sad like no one loves him (LIES); and he is lying on his side, stretched out, his ear thrown back. digital drawing made in heavypaint. it’s a simple bright and sunny mountain landscape, with white clouds and greenery and flowers. a girl is standing in the grass, turned to us. she has long golden blonde hair, is dressed in a white shirt and red shorts and is holding a hat with a white ribbon on it in her left hand and a yellow flower in her right. she’s smiling, happy and calm, her eyes closed. two birds are flying in the distance. this is a portrait of my friend. i haven’t visited her in a couple years.

“Fuck them kids.”

That’s literally what an ICE agent said when ICE, the FBI et al. raided an apartment in Chicago, including with a Blackhawk helicopter, separated children from their parents, and zip-tied them to each other.

bangs. "They was terrified. The kids was crying. People was screaming. They looked very distraught. I was out there crying when I seen the little girl come around the corner, because they was bringing the kids down, too, had them zip tied to each other," Watson said. "That's all I kept asking. What is the morality? Where's the human? One of them literally laughed. He was standing right here. He said, 'f*** them kids.'" Watson said trucks and military-style vans were used to separate parents from their children. Other neighbors said agents destroyed property to get in the building. "They had a big, 15-inch chainsaw with round blade on it, cutting this fence down," said witness Darrell Ballard. "We're under siege. We're being invaded by our own military."

Digital painting of a unicorn jumping to the right in front of a simple painting of a field with a stream and a sky full of clouds. The unicorn is a chestnut overo, a reddish brown with jagged, puzzle piece like white splotches along its body. It has a long tail with a long tuft at the end, and a mane streaked with white. Its horn is long and spiral. It has cloven hooves with long dewclaws.

#SaveSpeech #SaveSpeech #SaveSpeech #SaveSpeech #SaveSpeech C.P.B.C. 4 PHONE CALLS A DAY [If you're able to do more, you are encouraged to do so] WHO? WHY? HOW TO CONTACT WHAT TO DO Card MASTERCARD + VISA Visa and Mastercard have long histories with pressuring platforms that host and sell adult content. Most recently, they have pressured Steam and Itch.io, leading to dozens if not hundreds of games being delisted, and their TOS now updated with draconian content standards. MASTERCARD (US) +1 (800)-307-7309 phone tree nav: 1-1-2-2-2-1 (INTL) +1 (636)-722-7111 VISA (US + CAN) +1 (800)-847-2911 phone tree nav: 1-1-5. mash account #. Your goal is mostly to waste their time and therefore their money. Pose as a confused customer "just asking for clarification" about things relating to the Itch/Steam censorship controversy. Paypro PAYPAL + STRIPE Paypal and Stripe have their own histories with action against adult content. Like the credit card companies, they have both pressured Steam and Itch.io, with Itch calling out Stripe as a priority target, and Steam no longer being able to process certain currencies using Paypal. PAYPAL (US + CAN) 1-(402)-935-2050 (AUS) 1800 931 678 (GER) +49 69 945189975 STRIPE (Ireland HQ) 353 1 903 8449 (Cust. Support) (877) 887-7815 +1 (888) 926 2289 (say you are in california) Same as the CARDS. Waste time, waste money, eventually try to segue into censorship of adult content as a topic. CITIBANK Bank + BARCLAYS + WELLS FARGO Both Paypal and Stripe have indicated that their banking partners have also been a source of ant- Adult Content pressure. While there are MANY banks associated with paypros, these 3 are prime initial targets. CITIBANK (ENG) 1-(888)-248-4226 (ESP) 1-(800)-360-2484 BARCLAYS 44 (0)1624 684444 +800 800 88885 (replace (+) with country's exit code WELLS FARGO 1-800-869-3557 For now, begin by treating banks the same as how the CARDS and PAYPROS were early on. Call in, make explicit complaints re: Adult Content. If you have an ac…

Dandelion
A drawing of my OC Eunicio, originally created in collaboration with my friend Hugo Damas. He is standing around a few dead trees with some sparse foliage growing up from their bases. we see him from his upper thigh on up, one hand held is holding a dandelion as be blows it's seeds and makes a silent wish to him self - the sun at his back.

[MasterCard logo which reads Censorship] there are some things money can’t buy, for that you can thank MasterCard ®. For years, MasterCard has led the way in pressuring platforms that host and sell adult content. Most recently, we have pressured Steam and Itch.io, leading to dozens if not hundreds of games being delisted, and their TOS now updated with draconian content standards. Please, tell us how we’re doing: In US, call +1 (800)-307-7309 (Phone tree nav: 1-1-2-2-2-1) International, call +1 (636)-722-7111
