My first attack of the Artfight season! I drew Megawaahhh's character, Kodi! It's the first time I've sat down to draw since getting tendinitis last November, still recovering from that so idk how many attacks I can do this year. #artfight #werewolf

A werewolf crouches down next to a campfire on a sheltered cliff. Behind him the cliff drops off into a forest with a lake, with mountains in the far-off distance. The constellation Canis Major can be seen next to a Waxing Gibbous Moon. There are faint carvings depicting a werewolf shift, wolves hunting, and some kind of wolf deity behind him.

Been saving since April and finally got enough more saved to get a Switch 2 and cover my Z-A preorder. Absolutely thrilled my preorder plush turned out to be Tepig! Loving this game so far! First Pikachu I caught was shiny and I'm still riding that high. The camera is so good in this game.

A Switch 2 Mario Kart World Bundle, Legends Z-A box, and a Tepig Sitting Cutie.

New TOS censorship of fictional adult content is a massive overreach and makes this definitively not a free and open platform. It demonizes survivors and silences artists. Everyone is telling you a much healthier way is to give us better tools, like more robust labels, to moderate ourselves

people can issue consent. things cannot. drawings & sculptures & fictional characters are things. they are property. they are NOT real people. requiring fictional characters to issue consent is an insult to real people w/real problems how does bsky expect to get consent from something like marble?

Look, they do not have the capacity or competence to do this at the scale they want you to fear they do, and your fear is precisely their greatest force multiplier. Everybody who is cowed into silence by their threats allows them a smaller pool to focus on.

re: generative AI I have finally fully and accurately explained my problem with how it’s marketed and used. And now, you can use it, too.

Generative Al is being marketed as a tool designed to reduce or eliminate the need for developed, cognitive skillsets. It uses the work of others to simulate human output, except that it lacks grasp of nuance, contains grievous errors, and ultimately serves the goal of human beings being neurologically weaker due to the promise of the machine being better equipped than the humans using it would ever exert the effort to be.

The people that use generative Al for art have no interest in being an artist; they simply want product to consume and forget about when the next piece of product goes by their eyes. The people that use generative Al to make music have no interest in being a musician; they simply want a machine to make them something to listen to until they get bored and want the machine to make some other disposable slop for them to pass the time with.

The people that use generative Al to write things for them have no interest in writing. The people that use generative Al to find factoids have no interest in actual facts. The people that use generative Al to socialize have no interest in actual socialization.

In every case, they've handed over the cognitive load of developing a necessary, creative human skillset to a machine that promises to ease the sweat equity cost of struggle. Using generative Al is like asking a machine to lift weights on your behalf and then calling yourself a bodybuilder when it's done with the reps. You build nothing in terms of muscle, you are not stronger, you are not faster, you are not in better shape.

You're just deluding yourself while experiencing a slow decline due to self-inflicted atrophy.

Porn and art with sexual themes deserve to exist on their own merit, not because censoring them has knock-on effects for non-sexual content. Please stop expressing outrage by implying that censorship would be okay if it *just* affected sex workers and artists engaging with sexual themes.

Recently decided to make some pixel-art postcards of my own take on the different Pokémon regions. This is the first one I made, so it is a bit of an experiment, but I think it turned out quite nice! Would love to hear which region you think I should do next! #Pokémon #fanart #pixelart

A pixel-art, retro style postcard depicting Castelia City in the Unova region. The postcard shows a view of the city as seen from the harbor with a Pikachu version of the Statue of Liberty in the foreground. The text reads, "Greetings from Unova, Castelia City." The word "Unova" is stylized to be half white and half black in reference to the games.
