I'm apricot! I make the fantasy webcomic Kattabolt, about spunky cat girl Alex ⚡🐱

kattabolt.carrd.co
kattabolt.com
areyoshi.com

I post about Pokemon, my pets, & my OCs. If you like middle-aged men with issues who fall in love: hello, ask me about my #OC ship called Kibble. I have no self control.
Kattabolt comic advertisement featuring original character Alex, a cute cat girl in colorful clothes who is happily riding on a lightning bolt. She has long black hair and big glasses. There are low opacity examples from the comic in the sky behind her. The image has the web address for Kattabolt and also shows that it's available to read on Tapas and Webtoon as well. Fan art of the Pokemon Pikachu and Charizard in a fierce battle. Pikachu is leaping away with rainbow electricity coming from its cheeks while Charizard flies after it and spews fire. Original characters Kittens and Bull Dog, two old timey mobsters, running against a spotlight background. Kittens is a small man with brown hair, slightly tanned skin, and a scar above his brow. Bull is a very large bald man wearing a suit. Kittens is full on sprinting, but Bull is jogging.

messy pigeon 26

#art #gouache #birds #pigeon #pigeonsky
messy gouache portrait of a pigeon all puffed up and looking at you. You can see gaps between their feathers in their neck where they're puffing. The background is very messy with paint strokes visible and is a spring green. The pigeon is mostly grey with some iridescence visible.

Personal #PLZA photo thread that I'll add to here and there. I have a lot of fun and nice pics I've taken because I cannot be left alone with a photo mode
In-game screenshot photo from Pokemon Z-A, showing apricot's character next to a Greninja. They are both punching dramatically into the air, against a backdrop of the setting sun.

Hey, I'm looking for comics and graphic novels *by* Indigenous writers and/or illustrators, especially in the Americas. Doesn't have to be a recent book. Any genre! Any topic, any themes, does not have to be a memoir or history, though that is welcome too!

What's happening to Ana should be a massive canary for kink artists/creatives, and how the pressure's escalated even in the last few months. Mommy domme content is *tame* in the scheme of things - this is a silencing campaign.

Spoke to a second source familiar with what’s going on with paypro censorship toward me. It seems I’ve been blacklisted among paypros as a creator, particularly for mommy domme content. This could escalate into debanking, I learned

Actually, now the stuff I make gets to be "artisan" and I can charge a higher price.

🎨 I've been somewhat stern up till recently about which #HBHS images get released early, but I'm making an executive decision to show you this image of Chloe.

Pre-order our dating sim: heartbeat-highschool.backerkit.com/hosted_preor...
Chibi art of a cute fat girl with blue hair that's tied in a side-ponytail. She's wearing colorful overalls, purple eyeshadow, and has charms hanging from her scrunchie. She is holding a fish that has been lovingly rendered in much more detail than the rest of the image. Chloe (the girl, not the fish) is from Heartbeat Highschool, a solo journaling dating sim TTRPG. If you must, you may call the fish Bertram.

This coming out at the same time as the Nuzzi garbage says a lot, and none of what it says is good.

They're de-banking people for kink content online now

They'll come for you and your interests next - there's already been movement against vtubers in general, and games like Corpse Party are having their western releases canned over concerns about this stuff

Friend tried to donate to my Throne, flagged by fraud detection at Bank of America — bank identified the transaction as specially for “giantess voretuber Ana Valens”

I suspect I faced those Patreon / Ko-fi dings b/c financial institutions have me, specifically, on record as a high risk recipient!
meaooww 10m i tried giving you money and my bank's fraud dept called me 8m only notable be they specifically read "giantess voretuber ana valens" off some part of their screen 6m Wait Can i post this? They literally said that? 2m they literally said that in the most monotone ass voice mid sentence while asking if it was a valid transaction 2m Woah. What were you trying to give money to, Throne? 1m yeah 1m Holy

One more ep of these two being Very Gay™️then we're MOVING ON.

Chapter 11 will be nowhere near as gay as Chapter 10, I promise. My poor neglected son Sunwoo gets to return to awkwardly piloting his new flesh prison.

Hajun (man in the glasses) and Gunwoo (man with two cuts on his face) sit facing each other. Gunwoo looks down at Hajun's hand that reaches out to him, then averts his gaze. Hajun gently touches Gunwoo's face, looking concerned
