Personally, publicly interrogating an author on how they could have the temerity to make creative decisions you do not approve of is...a thing you can do. We have free will, after all. It might be worth considering, though, that you will be showing your entire ass to whoever sees you do it.

A man interviews for a job. The interviewer points to a literal wordless gap in the interviewee's resume and asks "what is this gap on your resumé" The interviewee, with an evil grin implores the interviewer to "look closer..." The interviewer sweats as he witnesses and evil aura with ominous humming noises emotting from the resume. The interviewer now finds himself trapped in the gap in the resume. The interviewee laughs malevolently.

thank you for this thread! i had an off-the-cuff comic turned into a meme and it's such a weird feeling that my art is just being spread out there without any credit here's a version with my name on it, im fine with people using that one :)

Six panel comic. In the first panel, a guy says, "I don't like thing". Then, a heavenly light shines on him and an angel descends. The angel hands him a note and flies away again. In the last panel, we see the note just says, "OK".

Long before ANDOR, BABYLON 5 warned us of how fascism raises quitely and slowly until it feels “normalized.” Heck, even predicted the use of blonde-haired woman used as the “pleasant” face of the movement. And the use of “aliens” as the scapegoat.

Three panel comic. Panel 1: a chimpanzee in an enclosure is sitting on the ground and painting abstract streaks of color on a canvas lying in the grass. Panel 2: a couple is standing outside the enclosure, looking in. The girl says about the painting chimpanzee, “aww, that’s cute.” Panel 3: the chimpanzee is alone in his dimly lit studio, head in hands, holding a lit cigarette. He looks completely dejected, feeling misunderstood. There is a pair of glasses, a glass of whisky, crumpled paper, and an unfinished painting laid out on the desk in front of him. The walls and floor space of his studio are covered in his abstract paintings on canvases and paper. There is also a marble sculpture of a banana beside him.

yikes :(

Instagram post from Loryn Brantz. Text reads,

I am horrified and disgusted by BuzzFeed taking my character, The Good Advice Cupcake, and giving it to an Al platform. My time at BuzzFeed was marked by continually being taken advantage of and lied to. They repeatedly assured me in good faith that they would never do anything with Cuppy without my input, yet offered me no legal options, insisting that I would never need them. The news that this character, who is based on my own personality and whom I created as a microphone to spread love and positivity, has been taken and turned into a soulless Al puppet feels like having my intestines pulled out of my body.
Somebody leaked the news to me early on that there were talks happening, and I pleaded with the CEO Jonah Peretti directly not to do it. Instead, he tried to talk me into signing an NDA. Obviously, I did not.
This is an assault on artists everywhere.
I encourage you to boycott BuzzFeed and any Al-produced or adjacent animation.

#booksky! Have you SEEN the cover for my upcoming THE SEDUCTION OF SHARK-MAN? I tell you, it must be seen to be believed! #ParanormalRomance #Romancelandia #PulpFiction Many thanks to @trashmancer.bsky.social & @fringe-element.net for making my VISION a reality! www.backerkit.com/call_to_acti...

The truly incredible cover to CE Murphy's upcoming pulpy paranormal romance novel, THE SEDUCTION OF SHARK MAN, portrays a red-headed woman scientist in a lime green dress beneath a lab coat. She is holding a vial of glowing green goo as an enormous half-man, half-shark, well, SHARK-MAN clutches her to his tremendous chest, her ample bosoms pressing up against his own ample bosoms. He is ginormous. He is tattooed. He is half dressed. She looks lustful. He leers. A laboratory surrounds them. Her thigh curves around his. It's simply incredible.

The image is treated to look like a battered old paperback. The text above them, reading THE SEDUCTION OF SHARK-MAN, is in lurid reds and yellows. A poster to one side cries, "THEIR FORBIDDEN LOVE DEFIED SCIENCE!" The author byline reads "An exciting new romance from C.E. Murphy writing as MURPHY LAWLESS."

It is simply incredible. I would say there are no words, but I've just used 200 of them to describe this.
