Its kinda wild seeing corporate management just obliterating the gates that keep them relevant ; namely the assurance that customers are getting quality products made with all the resources and institutional knowledge a corporation entails

The company Kiru Made has been exploiting artists, and (before we knew that) we helped them with a convention shipment, and they’ve ignored the invoice and reminders for six months! Just shitty behavior all around, be sure to avoid them!

one of the biggest piece of advice i would pass on to young/new creatives is that not every opportunity that hits your inbox is necessarily one you should take - not every "collab" or partnership or job makes sense for you if it doesnt align w/ your personal ethos or community!!

Wasn't having any luck falling asleep and then I realized why. I hadn't backed amazing artists and the books they are offering me like the amazing comic that is : Knights of the Wandering Castle by @lunydoobles.bsky.social www.backerkit.com/c/projects/n...

Knights of the Wandering Castle Vol 1-2: Graphic Novel
Volumes 1 & 2 of LunyDoobles' webcomic makes its print debut with Ch. 1 newly remastered. Can chivalry withstand this cruel world?

One thing that's been bothering me in the last couple days is I have never seen this level of "we should forgive and forget" "rehabilitation" for any woman doing anything perceived as or actually wrong no matter how small compared to literally having sexually assaulted someone.

CSP being pressed to take even just /kissing/ off their asset store and FA being told that plus sized characters are considered adult should be a giant waving red flag to folks. Sex workers have /always/ been right to say these policies never stop with 1 type of content. They always wanna ban more.

LRT if you are making comics then I think it is imperative that you read (any genre, fiction non fiction, etc) and nothing can replace this, but I also think it's important to watch things outside your genre. Play games you wouldn't otherwise. Watch old/overseas movies, documentaries, TV shows, etc

the only non-negotiable for writing is you have to read. doesn't matter if you're writing comics, prose, screenplays. read. read books, articles, scripts, comics. fiction and non-fiction. read lots of 'em and never stop reading.

With news of Tapas shutting down, I'd like to thank everyone who supports independent creators on Patreon or elsewhere. You are directly paying for hosting costs that keeps artists from relying on fickle platforms and keep art available for everyone to enjoy.

I hate A.I. far more than the average person, but I expected from the beginning that whoever put this together was *not* representative of the creative team behind the movie. Some of us have *got* to stop rushing to judgment. It's not fair to the artists doing their best.

Rowling looming over a progressive Irish cultural festival with her menacing insinuations & a phalanx of expensive lawyers dashing off legal letters. And all because the organisers don’t want transphobes peddling hate at their event. A nauseating spectacle of spite.

Again, what right wing Republicans and Democrats call "socialism" is the sort of regulated capitalism that was consensus for much of the 20th century. They pretend it's anti-market when really it's only anti-oligarchy

people who only think of shipping as romance cannot even conceive as shipping as thriller, shipping as horror, shipping as character study. very limiting worldview. you should expand your palate.

in the wake of inio asano saying he wants to use ai to make manga (presumably bc it speeds up the workflow and allows for faster production) i am once again thinking of how treating art as Content pushes us to adopt tools in order to produce content faster until we are hardly drawing anything at all

the odyssey discourse is a beautiful perfect window into right wing culture war psychosis. they went from hysterial racist mania over a character that’s on screen for 5 minutes to claiming there’s a massive conspiracy to fake ticket sales. this is just what they do for everything now. they’re insane
BREAKING: The Odyssey is FAKING ticket sales by buying up theaters/seats (Fraud) to make the movie look like a success (already $400 million in the hole) moviegoers are reporting having to take terrible seats (because full) but when they show up the theaters are mostly empty.

The more you explore the history of anime, manga, Japanese games history, the more you are confronted with the fact that MANY of the forms’ most potent innovations sprang out of and could not have existed without pornography. It’s integral to and inextricable from these histories

AI companies are destroying our collective shared history to put it into their slop buckets, because the slop they push out would destroy their models if they tried to re-input it
Text reads: This bookseller said his inventory is full of rare, foreign language, and low circulation books, meaning that if they are destroyed in the process of becoming training data, they'll be even harder to obtain.

I've had to unfriend a few fans lately, all for the same reason. They made ridiculing, unkind, and in some cases outright cruel comments about pictures I posted of young women cosplaying Jessica. 
More than a person, Jessica is a state of mind. To play Jessica, you need self -confidence, a sense of humor, and a Jessican -attitude-. There is no such thing as a Jessica cosplayer being too short, too flat chested, too heavy, too thin, too unattractive, too black, too Asian, or even too male!!! All Jessica, any Jessica, every Jessica is good Jessica. 
I'm not giving any warnings or second chances. A single disparaging comment on a Jessica cosplayer, and I'm throwing you out of the rainbow colored Toontown Tent.

someone on tumblr said it better than i could
I'm not saying be willfully ignorant. I'm not saying pretend horrible things aren't happening. I'm saying don't destroy your mental health going in-depth and cycling through horror after horror on your phone. I'm saying there is no virtue in making yourself experience other people's traumas because mere awareness is not activism. you inflicting suffering on yourself is not activism.
doomscrolling is literally sapping your energy and focus away from doing anything useful to help other people. you can burn yourself out without ever lifting a finger by exposing yourself to all the bad news in the world and who does that help? no one.

It's not enough to be against AI, you need to be pro art. You need to be a champion of the art you love, you need to share that passion and joy, and do what you can to support the artists who make it, because it's not enough to hate AI, to hate what it's doing to art and media; you gotta love.
