Dear Artists: Talk to your peers/friends/community about your art. Do not measure your potential or progress by social media metrics. You will fucking destroy yourself measuring genuine progression against a stranger who spent 30 minutes sketching hyper-realistic foot wrinkles.

SCREEN failed to pass out of committee, despite a 15-13 vote (in favor). Not enough members voting, but looks like a party line vote. Good work everyone! Keep up the pressure for after recess and beyond!
If SCREEN were to pass, you'd be required to scan your face and upload an ID to access this site because it allows "harmful" material. This affects you even if you don't care about sex work or porn.
(3/3) Hell, the US schema is arguably worse in terms of ensuring that artists are properly credited than nearly any conceivable alternative, as treating the right to attribution as a subset of commercial rights means that it can be signed away. There are lots of places where it's simply inalienable!
(2/3) Not only are these two things separable, they are in fact separated in the vast majority of intellectual property regimes – it's basically just the United States that treats attribution rights as a strict subset of commercial rights.
The "but what about making sure artists get credit?" objection to copyright reform is especially irritating because treating moral rights (i.e., the right to attribution, etc.) as descending from or strictly subordinate to commercial exploitation rights is a uniquely American perspective. (1/3)
While the SCREEN Act failed in the committee, KOSA did move forward. Contact your senators immediately demanding it be opposed, and keep the pressure up until it comes to a vote in the Senate
The Senate Commerce Committee just passed KOSA out of committee with zero debate & failed to move the SCREEN Act. punchbowl.news/article/tech...
Glad to know that Twitch doesn't actually give a fuck about what its creatives want and don't want... Anyway, go to Settings, Security & Privacy, then scroll down until you see the Training for Generative AI option to disable it.
Twitch now uses your channel to train generative AI by default. You can opt out of some training here: www.twitch.tv/settings/sec...
Erotica must be a little bit cringe, a lil bit gross. If you think your tastes line up exactly with the most formulaic romance where everyone kisses very normally and Tab A goes in Tab B perfectly, I think you are doing yourself a disservice. I might go so far as to say it lacks bravery, or honesty
10 perverts who are ride or die for you is always more valuable than 10,000 people who don't give a shit
PROBABLY fake in a literal sense, but also EMOTIONALLY fake. Artists made more money on cohost. Some special interests are still on forums. Some people survive off fucking MAILING LISTS somehow. Reach is only useful if it reaches something you want. Views only matter if they're meaningful.
CW Personal If you want to keep jacking off to our content, you have to listen to us. The entire sex network is in massive danger of being entirely eliminated.
Saw a post saying "I don't want NSFW accounts to talk about voting, just let me jack off" Buddy, NSFW artists and sex workers are being constantly attacked by a government of nonces trying to distract from their own crimes by pinning the blame on porn. They have the right to speak up about this.
Draw a kink 150+ times and suddenly everyone thinks you're into it or something 🙄
Tested this myself and can confirm it's a banned tag Trans & Transgender still work as do variations of LGBT+ but not "TransRights" or "TransRightsAreHumanRights" either
oh twitch you sure are making a CHOICE today this on top of everything else? disgusting.
Almost prefer the lineart to the rough render tbh. I think I may just be entering an inking phase though
every website now: "if you organize harassment offsite that's simply none of our business and there isn't a single thing we can do. if you sell nudes or pornography or sufficiently impure text on other websites, though, even if you use a different username and never link it, your account is BANNED"
GOOD NEWS! Phase I clinical trial results out of Johns Hopkins show a first-of-its-kind vaccine designed to target common KRAS mutations was safe AND stimulated KRAS-specific T-cell responses in 90% of study participants who were at HIGH risk of developing pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC).
Pancreatic Cancer Vaccine Triggers Immune Response Before Tumors Develop
Phase I results show early promise for a vaccine designed to prevent pancreatic cancer in people at high risk of developing the disease.

This is why we need more artists who aren't afraid to make their statements and share their perspectives. "Everyone" doesn't know anything. Someone else out there needed to see this, feel this, learn this just as bad as the artist did.
somethin like that #art
I’m at city hall because Seattle City Council is voting on a budget appropriation to fund local orgs helping trans people resettling here and the public comment so far is unanimously in favor, which is cool
Come visit Spitshine Brothel home of the Ho-Made Pies!
Im not convinced that literally anyone is in a relationship where they are getting their emotional and physical needs met. Like im not sure anyone is getting fucked right.
the right thing to do for society is draw porn
and who are you to say what determines my value!! because sex is important to me!! i value it and desire it and am passionate about in general and as an artistic subject!! of course im going to put my self into like i do anything else i care about!! sometimes to the detriment of my ego
my anxieties arnt going away by just willpower. it takes assurance and care and patience from other people too!! i simply dont believe a broken heart can be healed with anything but love. concepts of healing that focus only on the self are individualist nonsense.
okay sorry but like literally stfu!! telling ppl “they got to love themselves first” is such pop therapy fucking bullshit. i deserve love where im at. telling hurt people that love is only possible after fully healing is cruel and ridiculous!! am i supposed to just not want until then?
"Indies will save us" No! YOU WILL SAVE INDIES! Go leave a review for that neat indie game you like, share the trailer for an upcoming game you're anticipating, tell your fave developer they did a good job, go tell people about such and such game that's just come out, you can make a difference!
