And that’s a wrap! My ambitions for the final week were a little high but I ended up real sick for the last few days. I squeezed one last one in though! Hoping I can be better prepared for next year.
This makes for a total of 18 #artfight submissions this year, and the last is to the awesome knadire.bsky.social in defense with this cool halloween amalgamate! Phew, I'm taking a break! #af2026 #artfight2026 #teamcomedy
I'm absolutely appalled that Tim Hortons has chosen to partner with the Harry Potter franchise, and enrich JK Rowling, whose unapologetic and public bigotry targets a tiny and incredibly vulnerable queer minority group. You can call Tim Hortons and tell them the same at 1-888-601-1616.
Another very busy and very light week for me. I’m really hoping to pick up the pace a little for the final week and a half of the event. Still found time for at least one though!
This is likely going to be an extremely light season for me, but I’m still taking time to experiment with lighting and texture.
Attacks for this batch are extremely light. The week got away from me a little but I also went way too ham on the lighting and gore.
JKR and her new org apparently helped get the new Amnesty International report on how TERF organizations destroy lives taken down from their site. Well, guess what? The Streisand Effect is real. Here's the entire report in a thread. Read it. Share it.
Amnesty International put out a major report documenting the influence of UK based anti trans gender critical organizations and their funding. Within hours, GC groups threatened defamation lawsuits and Amnesty was forced to pull it down. Proving the point they're anti rights. Anyways, here it is.
Art Fight has returned! Slow start but taking the chance to experiment with texture and shading again.
Had to process all my emotions overnight. I need to ride out the way the TADC finale made me feel forever and I hope it makes a bajillion dollars.
The concept of labeling not activities or actions but PEOPLE as inherently Not Safe For Work is BAD and we can't let that happen. You are not inappropriate for the workplace or public just for existing.
v1.122 is rolling out today, featuring a better way to discover and share articles, blog posts and newsletters across the Atmosphere via new, dynamic Standard.site link cards. 🧵
It is so important that your voice is heard. Don't let those claiming we're the sensitive ones demand trigger warnings for having to look at minorities. It's always been projection.
Hey so if you're in the USA, the FCC is floating the idea of making shows put a warning up if they include or discuss trans people and trans lives. A short paragraph saying this is messed up would help a lot! You gpt less than a week. Submit your comment by May 22: www.fcc.gov/ecfs/filings...
A brief update and apology for hiatus. More art to come. www.patreon.com/posts/156195...

This is not us misunderstanding them; even if only 1% of their userbase risks identity theft and compromise from leaky partners, that number is too high. More pressure. No nitro. No compromise. Do not stop until this rollout is entirely cancelled. They "hear" us, but they must LISTEN to us.

re: the discord age verification situation While, yes, search for alternatives, make sure you let the for-profit company know that it will be losing your usership if/when this happens. it is important we do not just resign ourselves to this invasion of privacy. "do not go quietly" and all that. 1/8
Yeah, I recommend not using the patreon apple app to join. Just go on the website, it's 1. cheaper for YOU to support your favorite creatures and 2. All the money you give goes to the creator.
I'm begging you not to use apple products. This shit is devastating to creators like me
Sharing again as a reminder for those leaving TikTok.
“Auti$m”. “Bl00d”. “Corn”. “Unalived”. MAKE IT STOP!! Don’t change your entire lexicon just so advertisers stay comfortable!!
I always mean you. If you use LLMs in any capacity you are not welcome in my audience and I do not make art for you. Learn to be a better person.
No exceptions. If you use Gen A I in any capacity whatsoever, you suck. Yes, the way you're using it too. You're not special. "She probably doesn't mean me" I do.
Keep hearing devs say that they only use ai for "pre-concept art" There is no pre-concept art. There is concept art. That's where the idea starts. With the concept. You're using ai for concept art.

I'm unironically making my own Game Awards to present to friends. Confident it'll be a better time.
damn, time to look up every company Disney owns and systematically boycott as much of it as possible I guess
Disney has signed a deal with OpenAI and is investing $1B into the company • Sora will now be able to AI generate videos based on characters from Disney, Marvel, Pixar, and Star Wars • Some of these AI-generated videos will be released on Disney+
