honestly hate that every time there's an industry bad actor, lists of "works by marginalized authors to support instead" start circulating like it's a moral obligation to be done out of guilt, & it's crickets every other day of the year. my art is not to be taken in as a reactionary measure

It's understandable that ppl don't know what to do, we've been shunted into this idea that a narrow version of electoral politics is the ONLY path to change. We DO have to vote, but there is SO MUCH MORE. Places you can start: mutual aid groups (www.mutualaidhub.org)
community action groups

like... in all seriousness i would be so happy if i never saw another piece of AI-generated shit ever again. i only want to see things made with time and intention, and the leverage of an Internet that holds its users hostage while deluging them with garbage can and will expire lol

Imagine being surprised that if you want to hire the President, Publisher, and CEO of DC comics to personally draw you a bespoke original piece of art, it would be prohibitively expensive.

It's just a shame they moved all the water poison plants out of the country. We need to bring those jobs back to the USA!

Yeah, it doesn't feel like there's much to move to after moving to the backup backup backup backup platform. I've been sort of stuck waiting to see what feels like a worthwhile place to post on. Can't say anything has jumped up on my list

I'd also like to see the planets have more characterization and uniqueness to the point one could tell exactly which planet they had dropped on.

Thinking about the Dark Fluid mission in #Helldivers2 and how unique it was to change the galactic map like that. I hope we get more missions that affect the planets in the future.

Instead of the SAT prep classes I took, I wish I had classes that taught me more about balancing a budget/checkbook, more about contracts and freelance work, and general better money management courses. Even college didn't prepare me well for how much that stuff matters in life

cara.app is experiencing scaling issues and unanticipated costs.

As an huge fan of Bluesky, I've submitted a suggestion in their Discord's #suggestions channel to consider exploring atproto as an option, which could unite bsky and cara.

Please consider leaving your thoughts in the thread! 🙂

I still need to get about $200 together so I have something in the bank after I pay my car insurance bill. I am doing some work for family which is covering about half the bill.

Three regular commission slots remain!

Four animated slots still open!

Tech companies scraping the web for content and using their generative bullshit to kill off the sites they stole from until there's nothing left to scrape and it all starts to consume itself in an ouroboros of putrid, decaying pixels and code is the internet's "not with a bang but with a whimper"

also had a few people come out of the woodwork with the usual "you care about animals too much, what about humans" and two things: 1. it's possible to care about many things simultaneously, you should try it 2. the only people I ever hear say this are assholes to other humans anyway lmao

I beg of you. My decision to set aside one workday a week to only draw things for myself, a day which is sacred and *cannot* be allowed to be moved, overwritten, or rescheduled by other work, has revitalized my creativity and love of art. Do it. Do it for yourself.

SSI limits assets to $2k, a limit not changed in 40 years. HR 5408 would raise it to $10k ($20k for married couples). This bill needs more cosponsors!

My MOC (Rep Don Beyer, D-VA) said they're only adding D cosponsors in tandem with new R cosponsors.
