THIS IS WHY!!!! WE CALL!!! GREAT JOB EVERYONE 🩷 KOSA did pass the house but remember the senate has a conflicting version. Keep calling, it matters!

SCREEN Act, which would have required mandatory age-verification for sites (like this) that allow "material harmful to minors" failed to pass out of committee after thousands and thousands of people called their Senators. More work ahead!

Let's settle this offline. 💅

seven trillion years ago i asked my followers if they had pet photos i could use to practice acrylic paints, and i have been slowly chipping away at the stack this one is for zofrost.bsky.social 6"x6" on wood panel #art #dogs 🦢

okay the formulation of the question is breaking my brain. working back through it the implication is he thinks there are people who are anti-AI that depend on it who are these imaginary people. does he think the anti-ai crowd is using it secretly. does he think we'll keep it and he loses it.

Loon sketch!

Acrylic portrait I really liked.

'You'll choke too' - an aerial embroidery landscape inspired by all the wildfires happening right now... I'm upset every time I smell smoke outside and somehow we have people starting them maliciously too! But we all breathe the same air so they'll choke too (1/2 - see thread for close-ups)

New abstract, “Rubber Ducky”. Acrylic on 24”x12” canvas.

Fae: “Tell us your true name.” Me: “…Just my name? No birthdate, no SSN, no fingerprint scan, no address, no mother’s maiden name? Are you sure you’ve even got the right Olivia Waite? There’s like six.” Fae: “What the hell kind of bargains have you been making?” Me: “They call it health insurance.”

it's unbelievable how real he is

Been playin' a Pokemon Red Recomp, and @xeojax.bsky.social drew me as my transmasc Nidorina! I love how it came out, so I had to line and color it <3 #tfeveryday #trevorfox #furry #art #digitalart #transfur #tf #tftg #gendertransformation #mtf #ftm #transformation

New Logo! Mer-Cantile is a soon-to-launch online mermaiding supply store. I had a lot of fun with this one! In another world if I didn't choose furry I would have gotten into mermaiding. I made my own tail out of bathingsuit material as a kid that I could wear with my swim fins in the pool 🧜‍♀️

So if you weren't aware this is how non-industry focused art programs treat design and illustration. Seth isn't wrong, the thing is no one is interested in paying for an opinion of the 'human condition', no matter how novel or poignant, but the dragon people are happy to.

"Art" these days means very different things to people. For many, it's something they can contribute to the TTRPG / video game / animation / tv industries - NOT something to express their humanity and POV. They don't want to talk about the human condition, they want to get paid to paint dragons.

Here's a new one I created as a demonstration for The Broadmoor Galleries' "9th Annual Broadmoor Art Experience" a few weeks ago. The event is held at The Broadmoor Resort in Colorado Springs in July and includes artists from all over the country. "Just Chillin'," oil, 16"x12".

meirha@meirha.bsky.social · 2d ago

One of my last minute attacks went to @emilylorange.bsky.social as I had only done a male Draenei in that style so far and thought it would be a great opportunity to change that 🤭 Hope you like it! #artfight #WarcraftArt #Draenei

remember how last week i said the kind of person who replaces you with AI is the exact kind of asshole you dont want to take as a client anyway?

"I'm entitled to whatever I want whenever I want it for any reason and I don't care what satisfying these urges does to me or the world" well okay dude, seems like there's something deeper going on here, but that's just my take

Wow, he blocked me less than a min after I posted this. I'm not normally one to do the "HE BLOCKED ME, MUST BE A POS", but if you're response to trans ppl calling you out is to mass block them, that's a deeply childish and anti-self-reflective. IM SUCH A GREAT TRANS ALLY, LET ME BLOCK TRANS WOMEN.

North Carolina swamp.

This is what I mean when I said it is straight up an addiction and until he treats it like one it doesn't mean anything. Going "no no no it's not like THAT" and then trying to earn sympathy points by sheepishly admitting you knew it seemed bad and thats why you hid it are both MAINSTAY addict shit

Reddit post + Hank’s response. Bro… 😑😑😑

this morning i woke up and saw it was overcast and thought 'oh good maybe today wont be another 100+ day' and when i took the dog out i realized its wildfire smoke 👍

Fat Horse No. 30 It’s the year of the horse and I’ve always been a horse girl at heart, so I’m taking advantage of the excuse to fill the world with fat little horses! These felted friends are the size and shape of an apple, and if you have any apples to share I’m sure they’d help you out!

The ferengi's favourite RPG is, of course, Fallout: View Nagus

reject touching grass, embrace fusing with fungi

Just to be clear on this article, the position I took isn't "developers need to be more brave" but "funding needs to be more brave". Developers make all the cool stuff, just because they want to - the funding side hits it with market research and fear and growth targets and shareholders.

GamesRadar+@gamesradarplus.bsky.social · 2w ago

We need games like Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, Balatro, and Peak as a cure for the "fear" in the industry, say experts www.gamesradar.com/games/we-nee...

bluhhhhh i'm going to have to frog a cardigan because whoever wrote it clearly just multiplied everything by X to do the sizing and i may as well fix it instead of having a sweater that only fits a horse
