Artists need to let this sink in:
The thousands of followers who insist you stay there are actively hurting you at this point. You deserve a better audience who understands your rights and concerns. The sooner you rebuild, the easier it gets.

It might hurt my bottom line, but I’m probably going to stop posting art to Twitter entirely and I suggest you do too.
Not only is the site actively putting a “Okay, now remix this” button below art (and elevating them above the OP with a QRT) and it’s false flagging original art as made by AI.

Hey folks, don’t feed your cats any kind of raw poultry, whether bits from some you’re preparing for yourself or commercially produced raw cat food. And don’t let your cats out. Bird flu kills cats, even if your cats don’t hunt birds, they could be exposed through feces or shared water or dead birds
SCOOP: Cats that became infected with bird flu might have spread the virus to humans in the same household and vice versa, according to data that briefly appeared online in a report from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention but then abruptly vanished.

Yeah, I would kindly suggest that people avoid supporting Nobuhiro Watsuki in any form, specifically by not watching the new Rurouni Kenshin anime on Netflix.
And this is from someone who loves Rurouni Kenshin to death, to the point where started shedding tears when I found out that he is a pedo.

he had an estimated 100 DVDs of of underage girls. video footage of actual real world children. according to HIS OWN WORDS he "liked girls in late elementary school to around te second year of middle school." he continues to get support from the manga industry and public support from other mangaka.
Netflix is insisting on reminding me that Rurouni Kenshin is coming to Netflix. So I must remind you not to watch it, no matter your fond memories.
The creator is a pedophile that paid a $2000 fine and served less than a year in jail for possession of a TON of child pornography.

I wholeheartedly support the cause behind boycotting American businesses to protest the tariffs. That said, please be cautious of extending that same reasoning to small businesses and creators.
Many did not want or choose what is happening, and will be struggling with these changes as well.

As the parent of a disabled kid it is zero fucking surprise. Folks hate disabled people and will actively work towards making their lives more difficult. The lack of empathy that even disabled kids experience is shocking and will change the way you think about people and what they're capable of
This is probably not a surprise to people in the disability community, and I apologize for my ignorance about it, but I have been genuinely surprised how much immediate government wrath is going towards people in the disability community

Even if you do not create/consume/like NSFW media you must speak up for SWs and NSFW creators b/c the criminalizing and banning of it is just another step towards fascism. It will be used to target minority groups, LGBT, etc. and anything deemed "unsanitary" or "degenerate".
