We are democratizing art. No longer will you have to pay someone who owns a data center just to generate pictures. With a pencil and notepad that costs less than a dollar, you too can create Artisanal Imagery.

I feel like most creatives I admire casually consider themselves mid, not as a put-down of their own work but because they’re always looking for new directions to grow

Yet another opinion piece in the Times written by a religious conservative calling for wide-scale censorship of representations of sex and sexuality. Counterpoint: sexual repression is bad for society and censorship of sexuality is worse.

My friend Allison is nominated for an Eisner this year for her gn A Pillbug Story and it's so fucking good and I'm so fucking happy for her and I can't stop telling everyone I've ever met!!!

Can't stop, won't stop thinking about BOSCO

Anyone who doesn't wear shorts to the office in the summer is a coward, tbh

The promise of AI efficiency should always be followed up with “efficient for whom?” Considering that illustrators are more efficient than ever and yet wages have not increased in 80 years.

Only 2 weeks left to submit!

annoying comics tip: take a minute after every scene to double-check that your characters' accessories are all accounted for

I don't get some cons' obsessions with after parties lol. Like, you expect me to stand behind a table for 8-9 hours talking to people and then immediately head over to somewhere else to... spend even MORE hours talking to people? Insanity!!

Hi, I got laid off from Silver Sprocket last week and yesterday was my last day! I'm still so grateful for the chance to support some of the best cartoonists out there and to work with some amazingly-skilled colleagues. Everyone is struggling right now BUT I'm looking for work if you've got it!

New tat from @hillaryblair.bsky.social!!! I love it so much 😭

Idk what's more confusing, trying to deactivate an Instagram account for a lil break or trying to unsubscribe from DropBox Professional

I have designed so many dumb monsters for this D&D one-shot and I can't wait until it's over so I can share them all w you 👁️👄👁️

I have to watch Yellowjackets from the doorframe, but @br3l00m.bsky.social has to watch White Lotus from the doorframe ❤️

openai’s new ghibli “generator” is explicitly an intentional attempt at humiliation of a prominent objector openai is culturally fascist as well as functionally fascist it’s not an accident

I get why techbros and their ilk like gen-AI: artists and writers to them are just an obstacle to be bypassed. But I'll never get an author/artist/musician who uses it. "I want to be a writer." No you don't. You fetishize ideas but hate the work. You don't respect the craft or its practitioners.

Wish my father had properly prepared me to deal with the horrors of ear hair before he passed away...

Okay but how does ANYONE DM a D&D one-shot without personally drawing all of the characters and maps and printing out little standees of all of the characters and reworking the entire premise of the pre-written module to involve homosexuals

We did another D&D one-shot, and this was my design for my Circle of Stars Druid, Aoife! She turned out to be young Farleigh's mom who had just found out she was pregnant w him (and w @dickveindyke.bsky.social playing her chaotic baby daddy, bless him) bc D&D shoudl *always* be a soap opera
