Hi bsky followers, I've reached the point when being on here is eroding my already battered mental health, so I'm taking a break
Be kind to yourselves and each other, and see you in a while

What a great idea from the marvellous Moose. I am an illustrator of mainly spooky things - places, legends, TV shows, books etc. I draw with both trad and digital media and create and use handmade textures to make my pictures. My website is here which also has a link to my shop: sarahcoomer.co.uk

A thread full of great artists to support and/or follow
A great way to fight back against AI taking away work from creatives is to buy art by actual humans.

Thinking that incredible stuff is just there with no effort - and that it doesn’t matter if it’s a bit crap, as long as nobody had to break a sweat - is enshittification. And when they charge us what they ought to charge us, we’ll be shocked at the paucity of the exchange.

This is the best podcast I've heard in a good long while, and the best in the scary/uncanny/mystery/folklore bracket I've ever heard in my life

My instagram ads manager thingy has decided to block my account... Fun. So I'm having a bit of trouble getting the promo videos out past Meta's relentless content clamps.
We're down to word-of-mouth for a bit while we get the last two eps out... SPREAD THE WORD.

My wife, an academic in the performing arts, is working on a piece about mothering and birds (specifically the great tit) and she spent hours crocheting a great tit outfit, of which this is part. It's completely delightful and funny and unusual and brilliant. A ChatGPT version of woodcut just isn't.

Every job you get AI to do is cash taken from working people, usually low earning freelancers. That money is now not in the system. You are not only making the world poorer culturally, you are making the economy poorer. And since there is no workable financial model for AI, not even moving money up.

I love that tumblr post about how if you have an idea that starts with "if people just..." you should stop yourself and start over. People have never just anything

Cue vein bulging on my forehead as I encounter this phrase again
The point is that you lived. In a world that didn't call you a burden. You had a life you could navigate without specific obstacles. You had a life that's considered "normal." You had a life that ALLOWED YOU TO REACH THIS POINT

"if you live long enough you will experience some kind of disability" is weirdly counter to social model theory in a way that bugs me.

I'll put my car up against a cybertruck any day. I'd also like to see it last 60 years with the original engine and keep running like a dream.

"There's no feminism in Japan!!" claim dudes on their fourth anime waifu body pillow. That's not true. It's so not true, in fact, that we wrote a three-part series detailing extremely how not true it is. Learn more about feminism in Japan from Meiji to today.
