Digital waist-up drawing of my OC and persona Avelyn (she/they). Her eyes are closed with a serene expression as she conjures magic in the shape of a glowing white heart. Waist-up digital drawing of Vera from Shantae and the Seven Sirens. She is dancing, both arms raised above her head, and winking at the viewer with a smile. She is wearing a teal two-piece outfit with pink flowers and gold jewel accents, with red and gold jewelry as accessories. Digital fullbody chibi drawing of my OC Nymeth (she/her). She is winking at the viewer with a mischievous smile her tongue sticking out. One hand is on her hip, the other loosely holding a dagger. Digital thigh-up drawing of my OC Mercedes. She is looking at the viewer with a fierce expression, one hand fisted against her hip, the other down at her side. She is wearing a black sports bra and matching shorts.

Soldiers are not cops.

Trying to turn soldiers into cops always goes badly.

i know WHY this is but that just makes it even more of a kick in the pants lmao
screenshot of a tumblr post from user “wildmansters” The thing that really boils my potatoes about Al in general is that I have been a creative professional for over a decade now and the devil has ALWAYS been in the details. Big and small, I've had single-person businesses rip me to shreds over how their colors turned out on newsprint, and have worked with huge companies with THICK brand guidelines with every detail of their brand identity laid out and enforced with an iron fist. But I guess all of that stuff doesn't matter anymore? Who gives a fuck if this Al generated baby has six fingers, that mom-and-pop shop is still going to use it. That rug from Temu says Happy Thanksgivirg? Oh well haha it's just a silly funny thing now (nevermind that you never would have given a B-grade item from a craft show the same consideration). I don't actually care that the Al Coca-cola ad has a truck that changes size every scene, but I can't help but think about how, if it had been some poor underpaid artist, they would have been laughed out of the building. I don't really know how to put it in a succint way but it just feels all the more obvious how much more grace and flexibility has always been possible but never offered.

Using the belief that creators are the "petite bourgeoisie" to justify pirating books/stealing art is EXACTLY what makes it so hard for anyone who isn't rich to pursue their creative dreams

If you steal our art, you PERSONALLY are preventing us from building sustainable careers

Honestly, people calling creators the "petite bourgeoisie" makes me want to snap.

We're working folk. And we work really hard. For next to nothing.

I love how every artist has a different style that's wholly and uniquely them. even if ppl draw in the same general style, there's still just ✨something✨ about it that has the fingerprints of its creator and I think that's part of what makes art so beautiful

My hands on your face you beautiful child listen to me there is no sale worth going shopping on Thanksgiving. Do not support Black Thursday. Do not tell these companies to keep their employees away from their families on a holiday that should be about spending time with family.

For people unaware and playing/streaming Where Winds Meet, it uses GenAI for NPC chat bots, and let's you import a photo of yourself and a voice clip for character creation, which I'm sure I don't need to explain why that is fucked up

And no AI disclosure on Steam 🙃

Not my picture but my god this EXACTLY sums up why I'm so done with goddamn internet discourse. Everyone feels they have to have a take. It feels like people are seeking out negativity rather than just... enjoying what they do like.

I genuinely don't wanna be around people who act like this anymore

Friendly reminder that dishwashers made after 1995 or so are so water and energy efficient that even if you ran them twice fully loaded it would still use less water than handwashing the same load.

So many "green" things feel like sacrifices. Dishwashers are not one of them.

Clarification: Accepting payments for commissions through Friends & Family is against TOS (which you agree to by making an account), and it is TAX FRAUD.

Do not ask for comm payments via F & F. Dont let an artist convince you to pay this way, because your account can be taken down as well.
breadsticc.art Rosemary ✨ Stained Glass Artist @breadsticc.art · 7d
Lots of "don't write 'commission' in PayPal's feedback box for invoices" misinfo/fearmongering going around.

Yes, PayPal is censoring nsfw/queer artists like other payment processors. No, the word 'commission' will not get you flagged unless youre taking Friends & Family payments for commissions.

Like some kind of zombie cockroach, THE BAN ON STATE AI REGULATIONS IS BACK FROM THE DEAD!! 🪦

Please call your senators and rep NOW and tell them no state AI regulation ban!! A cheat sheet of who to call, scripts of what to say here: tinyurl.com/msa69nkv
THE VERGE: Republicans are looking for a way to bring back the AI moratorium. A year-end defense bill might include another shot at overriding state AI laws. House Majority leader Steve Salise (R-LA) told Punchbowl News he's considering adding language to the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) effectively banning state AI regulations. Later on Tuesday, President Donald Trump posted on Truth Social urging Congress to standardize AI regulations.

This screenshot is going around, and it's alarming that no one is asking where the info came from. This is a random user on Discord. Are they a PayPal employee/insider?

To their credit, we SHOULD leave it blank, because PP can't be trusted. But the rest is presented as truth, when it's assumed.
Everyone, but especially customers. Paypal has rolled out a new feature that prompts you to leave feedback about an artist who you've commissioned via invoice. Whatever you do, do not fill this out. This is a trap that is meant to misguide you. Paypal is doing this to sus out artists who create NSFW content like me and other folks in the server. By giving them feedback, you are not only putting artists like me, but your own account at risk of being banned off the site. Please pelase please just leave this form blank, if you want to talk to me about my work I would heavily prefer through DMs on here or on social media sites.

This is why it's really imp't for regular folks to speak up, keep calling, and hopefully get wider coverage in media. sex workers and people in the scene can get retaliated against easily bc paypros can shriek "high risk! high risk!"
Harder to do that to normies and customers just asking questions

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.

I know it's a tad early but I know those bitches with the buckets will be out soon. Don't gove them a penny. The volunteers may not know but the salvation army is no ally and actively combative and harmful to many queer minorities especially during the holiday season

🚨 Yet again Ted Cruz and Steve Scalise are trying to sneak in a moratorium on state GenAi legislation.

If passed states can no longer enact laws for transparency, child safety, privacy, environmental protection etc.

We got 3 days to stop this. Call now!
