ARTIST PSA! Kirumade is targeting small artists and not paying what they are owed. This video goes into more detail about the shady goings on and lists their sister companies at the end Please share with your art friends! youtu.be/lKFqlS9wO90?...

MCM London runs from 23rd to 25th October and I am excited to be hosting a frankly ridiculous number of panels this time - I have officially claimed the Artist Alley Stage as my domain! My panel prep has already started, so please enjoy an ongoing thread of who I get to talk to:

you may have noticed that animation has never been more in-demand & in the zeitgeist and yet, seemingly, never have media conglomerates been less willing to produce it. you may also notice these guys get multimillion dollar severance packages after they gut a studio. there is probably no connection

Skydance now owns Nick, Cartoon Network, Adult Swim, Comedy Central, and MTV, effectively ending US TV animation as we know it. Countless jobs will be lost, and fewer new shows will be created. An apocalyptic scenario for cartoons, yet it's maybe the 5th-worst thing about the Paramount-WB merger!

chat how do you paint aegyosol if the subject actually has 3 secondary eyes

At what point does having pcos and chronic muscle pain and back issues cross over into like disability territory Cuz im like “i am not disabled i am fine” but every month at least for a week I can’t bend at the waist and even rentering gym isn’t relieving this pain

continues the family tradition of having so many meds your local pharmacist knows you

Sad news everyone. Our beloved friend the computer has now become a hated enemy

WE DID IT YALL! With how these past couple of weeks have been this is really a balm to the heavy heart. It means the absolute world to me to be still here sharing comics with yall and I look forward to continuing the cause. tagpacker.com/user/webcomi...

I can’t believe we’re back to medieval level conflicts like “local merchant princes attempt to bribe theologians and the Pope’s advisors so the Pope will issue a favorable proclaimation”

This is insane.

tangentially i often think about how like. kind words from strangers was enough for me to start my career i got my 2p for buuza 3 and I wrote in it about how the very kind rejection email I received from Taneka Stotts in 2018 encouraged me enough to commit to making buuza

as an author of a generally optimistic queer comic does anyone have reccs for the most toxic trans romance comics theyv ever read :)

My least favourite part of comics is naming new main characters

Less than one week to go! A big thank you to everyone who's pledged so far and shared my campaign. I am really grateful for all the support and encouragement. Here's a little illustration to show my appreciation

hello! Today's the anniversary of my first wee trad published book. So for new followers: a gamebook thread This one's good for the: - ttRPG-curious but can't get a group together - DM who wants a night off - nerdy parent/ relative who wants to induct a young person into dungeon crawling life

Oneday me and gf will do a queer poc centric comic festival + music night and it will unite the london qpoc scene and we will be soooo unstoppable

anish kapoor ur my enemy actually

Hey Bluesky give me some essay / theory reccomendations: I am looking to read about how the mechanism of framing a racially marginalised / colonised culture as “antiquated” / “past it’s prime” / “deceased” is a vehicle of erasure of living peoples and culture but not in the context of Orientalism

I tell teenagers at my library (where I work) to read this all the time because I know that even if they don’t fully vibe with it on the first go that they will come back to it again because it’s one of those books that will stick with you forever. Amazing achievement Keezy Young the GOAT‼️👇 Read It.

Hello Sunshine is a horror mystery GN about a boy who comes back from bible camp to find out that his secret boyfriend, Alex, is missing after a very public mental breakdown. #comics Available now!! www.thenovl.com/titles/keezy...

Im watching this willy wonka game show on netflix and its like the textbook play of how black women have to play a meta game on reality TV survivor / game shows to survive

the funniest thing to come out of fortunes weave so far is everyone being like “byleth wasnt so bad”

i think the writing has been on the wall for a few years that 1) we’re in a recession 2) none of these platforms will ever exist forever as their giant conglomerates try to shift strategies to make the line go up forever even though we are all broke af this has happened before and we will survive

anyway while I continue to shitpost I will bring up again my one and true royal family conspiracy theory that I unironically believe in: The queen died before her diamond jubilee and they falsified her death date to save face because the state invested so much into her jubilee celebrations
