If anything, you -want- your commission artists to be able to freely do personal work in between! Not only does it warm us up, as OP stated, but in my case, I'm a lot more loose/relaxed with personal art, and may even learn something new to apply to your commission! Plus get out my mistakes there!

“It’s unprofessional for an artist to post personal art while doing commissions” Sometimes we need a break in between commissions by drawing stuff for ourselves so we don’t lose momentum. It might take a while to. It not unprofessional it just warm ups to keep from having art block.

The SCREEN Act is not just another age-verification bill — it goes much further than anything passed at the state-level or in other countries. 1. The bill doesn't just target porn sites. It goes after *any* site that allows material "harmful" to minors. You'd have to scan your face to use Google.

(3) COVERED PLATFORM.— The term "covered platform" -
(A) means an entity -
(i) that is an interactive computer service;
(ii) that-
(I) is engaged in interstate or foreign commerce;
or
(Il) purposefully avails itself of the United States
market or a portion thereof; and
(iïi) for which it is in the regular course of the trade or
business of the entity to create, host, or make available content that meets the definition of harmful to minors under paragraph (4) and that is provided by the entity, a user, or other intration conten provider, with

Artists: - Likes do not determine your value - It's okay to not create - Not everything you make has to be important or good - You can make things just for yourself - You're allowed to rest - You're so much more than what you make

It will be worse than this! Most websites will be forced to ask you to send your ID to a third party surveillance service, adding a credit card won't be enough for most. Bluesky asks for your *social security number* if you live in Texas now, due to this shit. Call in, and kill it.

This will be the US if the SCREEN Act passes. Call your Senators before August 5 and tell them that you oppose the SCREEN Act, KOSA, and the KIDS Act. Use the official lookup tool at www.senate.gov/senators/sen... to find yours by state.

This goes for mods seeking co-mods as well. Just bc someone is ur friend doesn't mean they'll be a good mod, or that you'll work well together. *Especially* beware of ppl who get real chummy with you real quick and then ask if you want to help them run a zine bc you have experience they lack.

I'm actually going to use this as a jumping-off point for a more general thread on zines. I think a lot of us writers and artists see a zine application as one-way evaluation, where the mods judge our work & decide if we're a fit for the project. But the evaluation needs to go both ways. (1/?)
