I used to make yearly donations to Wikimedia Foundation, but after talking to several friends in the nonprofit space, I've switched to recurring monthly donations instead. The predictable income stream helps them plan for the future. Throwing it out there for ppl looking for the best way to support

This is hazardous - being hogtied like this makes it difficult to breathe, because all your weight and pressure is on your chest, and it’s hard to expand your lungs. I’ve seen people pass out from being hogtied, and without QUICK intervention, bad things happen. Positional asphyxia is real.
ICE is hog tying protesters in Portland and removing them on Dollies.

This is dangerous and could cause serious injury.

The Department of Homeland Security thinks it’s a joke.

They’ve shared this video with the tagline “Refuse to Walk? We’ll give you a ride”.

Stay strong Portland.

I got my job working on Castlevania by drawing a comic that would be banned under bsky's new sexual content rules. If it was up to these ghouls I wouldn't have had my career

Use the feedback form to tell bsky to roll back these harmful policies and let us have creative freedom with a tagging system

To all freelance peers who are struggling to make ends meet this year: it's not you. It's been getting tougher and tougher to get any gigs and many private clients struggle to pay their own bills.
Whatever it takes for us to get through this, please don't doubt your skills and value as a creative ❤️

Animation is so painful right now. Finding work is so hard. My wife who has survived both the WB mergers now has the looming specter of another sale or merger. Its so stressful, things have been so precarious for so long. And we’re in better shape than most. AND the fascist drum beat everyday.

Gonna go even further: don't refer to it as "consuming media" when doing this. You aren't a consumer - it's not a product. You read books. You look at art. You watch movies and/or videos. Be careful about word choice.

Reject "consume" and REJECT "CONTENT."
IT IS ART.
YOU ARE ENGAGING WITH ART.
I'm being so real right now, learn how to engage in media as art and not a reflection of your own real life morals. consume things that make you uncomfortable and understand why it makes you uncomfortable. Don't just base yours and others morals standings on the media you consume.

This is the third installment in the AI Killed My Job series, after tech workers and translators. It focuses on visual artists, illustrators, and graphic designers.

I received so many submissions from visual artists that I couldn't include them all, and, just a word of warning, some are very bleak.

Please, please stop asking people who don't know any better to sign up for protests. As organizers it is absolutely critical that you know better.

For everyone else: Never, ever, EVER register for a protest. Especially now. Just go!
We need your help to make October 18 the biggest peaceful protest of the year. Please spread the word, register your local event as soon as you can, and start RSVPing for the local protests to help build momentum: www.nokings.org?SQF_SOURCE=i...

Unlikely as it is to pass, I think maybe it'd be good to scream at your representative that you don't want people who view pornography to be on a sex offenders registry
Michigan lawmakers are proposing a total porn ban

The "Anticorruption of Public Morals Act" H.B 4938 would prohibit the distribution of "real, animated, digitally generated, written, or auditory" depictions of sexual acts.

Total porn ban proposed by Michigan lawmakers
Some states have moved to require age verification to ensure only adults are watching porn, but no states have outright banned the viewing of pornographic material.
