It's been a hell of a *squints at calendar*. Birthday season was nice, but it was immediately followed by a close family member dying unexpectedly. Her birthday would have been next week. She was only a year older than me. Then funeral shit with my trump-loving family...I'm ready for 2025 to be over

Ah yes looks like Google finally tried to kill uBlock Origin. If it says it needs to be removed because it's not supported, you can just toggle it back on from the extensions page. Fuck that.

There’s around 1,000 people here and growing. Hard to hear speakers without amplification, but crowd is very enthusiastic.

The Indigenous People of North America have decided to go back to calling the Gulf of Mexico, “Chalchiuhtlicueyecatl”. It is what the Nahuatl People originally called it as it is the domain of the goddess Chalchiuhtlicue, who is assoc w/water bodies, including the Gulf of Mexico.

"Stop romanticizing toxic tropes in fiction"
Bro literally never heard of 'Romanticism' (1790 - c. 1850) and how it's a deliberate rejection of order, harmony, balance, and rationality and celebrates the irrational, personal, emotional, weird, occult, and monstrous by design, how embarrassing 😞

Just in case people don't know the context, this is a policy called splitting the letters, developed by fundamentalist Christians to use feminist and queer language and culture to split the T off and then turn the others against each other.
You can watch their 2017 conference planning it.

To be as clear as possible about this;
This isn't about artists choosing deliberately to make weirder art knowing that it won't be profitable.
This is about others encouraging artists to just "make your weird art!" in the face of overwhelming pressure to conform just so they can afford to live.

This isn't due to anything specific, but I do want to say;
If you are telling artists or creatives to make weirder and more unmarketable art, it is in fact your obligation and duty at that point to promote/pass around/support those creatives when they *do* make that weirder art. Otherwise we can't!

Art doesn't need to be profitable to be made, but assuming everyone can just use their time and creative energy to make their passion projects is deliberately choosing to exist in a mental vacuum where every person alive is given equal opportunities to survive without monetizing their passions.

Disabled and marginalized artists exist and many of us don't have the ability to work a "normal" job. Commissions or niche art gigs are in fact the extent of our abilities - and the only thing bringing income.
Dropping that to work on passion projects isn't an option without financial support.

Well fuck. I haven't posted there but I've left my account public so people can dm me if they feel more comfortable and I'm going to have to at least private because of this
It might hurt my bottom line, but I’m probably going to stop posting art to Twitter entirely and I suggest you do too.
Not only is the site actively putting a “Okay, now remix this” button below art (and elevating them above the OP with a QRT) and it’s false flagging original art as made by AI.
