Please UK artists and art enthusiasts: do this! I have filled in the form and contacted my MP (took two attempts to get a reply - and it was honestly a very good reply I receive). Please do it too! There's only a few days left to do this!🙏

I set her on my pacing steed, and nothing else saw all day long, for sidelong would she bend, and sing a faery’s song. - John Keats, "La Belle Dame sans Merci"

I really just want to be home

Years ago, after the Cambridge Analytica scandal, I interviewed a former fb employee, and I remember her continually emphasizing that these tech bros weren't evil geniuses, but were, in fact, dangerous because they were utterly clueless, totally reckless, and had too much power.

Old art I still really enjoy for @/faephillia of @/baydews gorgeous character 💜✨ #commission #dnd #art

Still looking for someone to take this slot! I will need it for car insurance later this week

NEW BATCH FINALLY! Some adopts new, some old! Please DM if you're interested! All of these go towards medical bills and our groceries! [ #ocsky #warcraftoc #goblin #adoptables #adoptable #premade ]

It is perfectly legal to know your rights and to educate others about them, too. EVERYONE in the United States, citizen or not, has rights. I will not allow this administration to intimidate us from helping you know about them. Here’s our shareable guide ⬇️: (pt. 1/2)

I created another version of my artwork, “Insomnia,” in which the character is more prominent in the foreground. You can see Valkyrie's stuffed animal, Mr. Snuffel, which his brother made for him out of socks. 🥰 #Cityart #digitalart #cyberpunkart

Another commission in the books! This one was so fun, and miraculously didn't fight me at all! Thank you very much @beetlelark.art !! These are $75 each and I have one more slot open for February, and one for March! forms.gle/qBWBBbtScCp9... Please repost for visibility~

That doesn't mean we don't get uncomfortable when we receive such comments. They can just compliment our creation instead of comparing it to other things. Complimenting and comparing are two different things. If they want to engage, sure, just respect our creations.

meeting 🤝 my anxiety📈📈📈 🥲 Lovely Monday morning start

The Moth King

With Handmaids Tale people focus on the shock of the mass rapes in the book and the show. But how the regime came to be in power in that book keeps me awake at night because it is playing out in very intricate detail in our real lives right now.

People want stories. We are drawn to the story in art. We pause and spend time with a painting until we find the joy in each brushstroke. In that moment we see the artist and storyteller like a wizard behind the curtain. That is absent in gen ai. Go be that storyteller. Go be human and create.

I stopped using Twitter the second I got an account here. I stopped using Spotify when they funded right wing grifters. I stopped using Google when they put "AI" into everything, and this includes Gmail. The book series I just ended last year will be the last one that goes up on Amazon. Starve them.

Protecting dreams is hard, they deserve a bit of respite ✨ #oc #art

Just your regular reminder that Johnny Depp’s lawyer who was kicked off the 2022 trial because he breached a protective order to leak manipulated evidence to tabloids and YouTubers also had ties to Russian oligarchs and Putin’s inner circle

🌿 Emergency commissions!🌿 5 slots open to cover my upcoming medical bills 🔗 & info below!

AI-bros use the term 'AI' to refer to LLMs and AGI because they WANT to confuse you; they want you to associate the term 'AI' with those products. AI just means artificial intelligence - anything designed to execute logic. That word has a wide range of uses that aren't generative or derivative

Using AI to produce writing or art is like asking someone at the gym to lift weights for you. The effort is the point.

My usual stance. If you couldn't be bothered to make it, I can't be bothered to look at it.

I’m seeing a lot of soft takes from industry mutuals at the moment that we shouldn’t be so hard on those who use generative AI because it’s becoming harder and harder to resist. Wrong. Betraying your ethics (and your peers) because ‘everyone else is doing it’ does not suddenly make it acceptable.

Saw something this weekend about accepting that authors will write with AI. No. Don’t accept it, don’t forgive them.

Hey guys! Did you know that I have prints and stickers with VAMPIRE BATS? 🦇🍷 Because I do! [links belooow]

This is like Kendrick and Drake if both of them were Drake.

Aware that I'm about to sound 350 years old: Gay people should learn our fkn history. Without trans women, black trans sex workers, and drag queens, THERE'S NO STONEWALL RIOT and LGBT+ rights. We owe our rights to our solidarity. Our strength is in not letting one "letter" get picked off. Wake up.

Now more than ever.

big fan of knight women personally. wish they would call me #feaquart

I'm embarrassed to be setting ANOTHER Ko-Fi goal but yeah. Who isn't struggling these days. #supportartists #kofi ko-fi.com/gprismagic/g...

Hate that a notification can make me sad Guess I need to turn off and unsub from things lol

What the people #Congo live through is nothing short of horrific. Recently a Congolese man shared a story with me that he asked me to pass on, so please read/boost this. (Story in the thread below) TW for gun violence, war, death, trafficking (there's also hope and resilience too!)
