This. A thousand times over, this. I think it was Maya Angelou who once observed that wasting your time was a genuine tactic of these people, deployed with the intent to distract, frustrate, and exhaust. Block that shit and commit to sharing only actionable, informative political content.

I’m not a political journalist, so was gladly surprised at the community I found here last night. To Americans anxious about the upcoming elections, a key thing we learned in Brazil that might help you: DO NOT engage with the far-right online. Don’t share rage bait. Amplify your people. Ignore them.

Artists who take commissions: Do you take many types of commissions or do you have a focus? If you've got a narrow focus, did you do that intentionally to help yourself? To help clients decide? If you offer a wide range of options do you feel like there's one folks usually pick?

I know the vast majority of you are here because of my art, but I need to share a thread about Brazilian politics because what we achieved today deserves to be mentioned and celebrated I'll do my best to be objective for those who have no idea what was happening

I think artists and sex workers should have a natural allyship. Both of us are often told we should not be allowed to charge for our work if it is at all pleasurable. Both of us are wanted for what we can do, but our work is considered not worth paying for. We should stick together

#AwesomeCharacters Oh I guess we just throwing ALL THEM ARTS UP! Please enjoy my mix of my blorbos and their families/friends plus some critters and a godling. Credits will be in the next post since there's a lot of cool people here (but it should also be in alt text).

Tell me about your #AwesomeCharacters It's International Artist Day! 🎉🎉 And we haven't done an art share day in a bit! So, please share with me any art you have of your characters! A doodle or picrew works too! Help me picture them! (Please no AI) #WriteSky #WritingCommunity #WritingPrompts

Adding to my to-do list to edit shop images so they also say "Sold Out", not just the drop down menu. I think that'd make things more clear when shopping. 👍 Thanks again for all the boosts! It's been cool to see, and also super fun to package sales x3 <3

Happening next week, I am so excited to get some actual sleep! 😭 Now is a great time to grab anything to help lighten our load 😉 Thank you to everyone who shared so far 🥰

MOVING SALE! My jewelry (bracelets, necklaces, earrings), keychains, and crochet pouches and bandanas currently have some STEEP discounts. 💎 www.sambeawesome.com/store?catego... On the hunt for holiday gifts or something to treat yourself? I've got you covered ;D #shopsale #shop #sale #artist

A photo of various handmade products. (Two crochet pouches with a semi-circle scalloped edge flap, and a yarn chain wrap to close them, with beads on the end of the chain. One crochet bandana. Three bracelets and one keychain.)

If any artist contact you on discord to ask you for commission, reach out to them on a different platform to verify if it's really them. No reputable artist will beg for your money in your dms.

⚠ PSA to artists and clients on #VGen about a Discord scam going around!! ⚠ a scammer is scraping profiles (both artists and clients) to make fake discord accounts impersonating them, then reaching out to people they've worked with in the past who have their discord info publicly visible

Head's Up & Sorry Author Friends, My gov's latest decision is gen ai companies don't need licenses to train their gen ai on ANYONE'S work within Australia. All authors get is an opt out. Author's Guild have concerns about how well that opt out will work, and so do I. Sign your opposition in link!

Australia May Legalize AI Training on Your Books. Sign a Statement Opposing It.

The Australian government has announced that it is planning to introduce legislation that would change copyright law to allow AI companies to use authors’ work, without a license, to build their model...
