So, one question that came up last week is "Why don't some people label their NSFW content?" and some times it's because when you do, Bluesky just slaps another, less accurate label on top.
The desired behavior is not acknowledged, rewarded or encouraged on here.
Screenshot of the labels for the Quoted post, showing two labels, in Dutch. One shows "explicit sexual images" and was added, inaccurately, by the automoderator. The other is the accurate label ("non-sexual nudity") added by the poster trying to do the right thing.

Rogues of Clwyd-Rhan has updated with "Rite of Serfdom referenced" on Comicfury. Kel is pretty enthusiastic about the new plan.

I've been posting some Doctor Who commentary elsewhere (nothing groundbreaking, just exercising my critical muscles after years of neglect) and at the end of it, I drew this Dugga Doo to share with you all.

Dugga Doo, a happy, bird-like alien singing a happy song that's also called Dugga Doo.

When a great international comics font still makes anglocentric assumptions about how it's going to be used.
Screenshot of a word balloon showing the text "over mijn lijk! Denk aan het" which is Dutch. Lower-case letters were used; they just look like capitals because it's common in comic fonts. In the "ij" glyphs, the i is non-seriphed, but the j is seriphed.

Panel 1. Kel is examining the paperwork with Jodoque, in the sauna, which has not been fired up. Kel: Yes… that’s the scam… They sold the extra wool for cash in the city… bought more land with the cash… but why didn’t they collect on the leases? what are we missing? Panel 2. Jodoque has pulled open the door and is peeking through it. Jodoque: Why don’t you go and ask them? They're back!

Marion, Shireen, Atra, Hildegard, the woman from the woods, Fay and Harold are all listening at the sauna door. Kel (from inside the sauna): ...is it actually the same land as the land we got from the Duke and Duchess? Atra: Dammit, why did we have to build those doors so thick?

Page 94, the 1304th Rogues of Clwyd-Rhan comic on ComicFury, is now scheduled for February 24.
I gotta say this panel makes me laugh every time I see it, because of how out of left field it appears.
Panel 6. Inquisitor 1: Insufficient commitment to taking risks in order to maximize task performance. Inquisitor 2: Fetishization of bureaucratic procedures. Inquisitor 3: Unacceptable.

And now, the #JethroTull #Beardwatch ! In the new publicity photo, John O'Hara's beard is resplendent. One of the best beards in the history of Jethro Tull beards. Jack Clark's makes him look like Martin Allcock in 1988; Anderson's own is meh but should allow him to wear a good face mask.

At 5809 x 9052 pixels, this one of the largest things I've ever inked in Procreate, and probably larger than anything I've colored in it so far.
Rogues of Clwyd-Rhan page penciled in for February 17. Pencil art is 10 years old and I'm redoing the inks from scratch.

"Mainstream social platforms treat all nude art as obscene." Case in point.
Screenshot of the previous post showing it has been labeled as Adult Content. Not shown: the label is for "Explicit Sexual Images". Screenshot of my appeal against the label. "This is a link to an art photography blog that does not feature sexually explicit images".
