digital illustration of an anthro feline in shades of brown with a beautifully striped face. she's kneeling in a cute white dress with a deep red wrap over it and cinched at the waist with a jewel-studded leather belt, and has a thin lighter red scarf wrapped around her neck and trailing down. she's reaching to select a chocolate from a large valentines heart box, which is sitting in front of her.

Hard to not go fucking insane in a world where they behave like fiction can hurt you while literally bombing schools. Hope all of these fascist fucks take a very long walk off of a very short pier.

When you walk through a city, say hi to its guardians, sacrifice a moment of your time to them. Who knows? They might walk with you for a bit. And light your path.

Scanned. :)

Yesterday, the KIDS Act has Passed the E&C, and soon will be pushing into the house! This is a combination of KOSA, SCREEN Act, App Store Accountability Act, and other bills into one package.

Contact your Reps, and tell them to OPPOSE these bills! Stay strong, and fight for your rights and privacy!

experimental bust done as a patreon reward, featuring an anthro feline character in a bout of fiery rage - literally. her mouth is open in a snarl/roar and flames swirl around her. it's technically a pixelart, but a pretty high dpi so the pixels are smaller

I think the biggest damage to the art community was the obsolescence of gallery sites (y!, deviantart, etc) and the rise of scroll-by social media, like twitter and even tumblr. Art is not ''content'', you shouldnt need to post art every day (or every month!) to be relevant. This mindset sucks.

a small banner saying "Weekly Wing-its" in a large curly font, with prices underneath: "$95 flat colors" and "$160 simple cel shading". the background is heavily textured, with linework of previous character art filled in with various shades of purple

ppl who still commission their favourite artists even in this era where everyone is broke and genAI is being pushed on us at every opportunity—you are appreciated more than words can express!!!

i stopped playing heartopia the day they said they werent going to stop using ai in the discord and started banning people for being upset, but now they are banning people for being upset about the RACISM? if you still play this game, get well soon ig.

Fun note on this article, this company uses comfyUI, which boasts a collection of some of the most unethical and exploitative GenAi models.

This whole deal is Netflix normalizing the exploitation of the creative workers—whose works GenAi companies stole to train their models— they hope to replace.

new update, new art time

digital monochrome sketch of a muscular anthro-crocodilian character hanging from an arm, as if from a ceiling or rafters. his feet are on the wall next to him and, in the hand not gripped above him, he holds a wicked knife, running his tongue on the side of the blade

I'm begging the small local community groups in Ireland to please consider reframing their use of AI design work this way. The amount of drama and theatre groups in my sphere that I see using AI posters now just makes me sad.

simple digital reference sheet of an anthro critter that's a combination of a fox and a snake, with some plantlike qualities as well. she's in soft shades of purple, with leafy green accents, holding a large spellbook in one arm and a silver crescent moon wrapped around the other hand

For ppl who aren't aware:
Old temperate forests are insanely rare nowadays and extremely important ecosystems lost forever once cut.
They're not just "old trees" but intricate networks of trees, fungi and all kinds of living creatures.
You CANNOT replant this!! Once it's gone it's lost FOREVER!!!
