friendly reminder to everyone who's new to bluesky (i haven't seen any of these posts recently) Bluesky doesn't have an algorithm, and while likes show support for the creator, it doesn't directly boost a post like it does on Twitter Reposting is what gives it the traction to get to more people :)

turnaround practice!

I trust my followers have pretty good heads on their shoulders but just in case: Be careful about scam accounts pretending to be affected Gazans. It's a very popular scam and it seems to be growing a bigger presence here. Just take a moment to vet an account before promoting or donating.

Jordan is one of the coolest and hard-working folks I know; an incredible artist and person and you’ll have seen his work around if you’re near the illustration/animation community online. It is absolutely tragic this has happened, please consider donating/sharing to help him get back on his feet

Important note from the bird site, especially for artists:

Choose 20 films that have stayed with you or influenced you. One film per day for 20 days, in no particular order. No explanations, no reviews, just posters (GIFs in reply). 9/20 #filmsky #filmchallenge #films 📽🎥🎬

Asé 🙌🏽

Some bracelets I made for 2024.

And tell me I’m pretty while doing it lol

👏🏽 💯 @chuckwendig.bsky.social speaks the true true.

People who easily understand and appreciate your humor >>>>

I've got a few ideas. But none of them have been finalized enough to where I feel comfortable showing them publicly. So it will probably take a long while.

It'd be easier to advocate for indie animation if not for the lack of healthcare and benefits if you don't work for a corporation. You can't just tell people to go do their own thing if they don't have investors, who tend to be evil. www.hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie...

Thank you for getting me to 40 followers!

This year, the fight for industry unionization was joined by an unlikely source: Bungie's former chief legal officer, Don McGowan. In our interview, McGowan said developers stand to benefit from the physical and contractual advantages a union can provide. #GDBestof2024

Reupload. Wanted to share this old animation I made last year in the spirit of the holiday season. #blacksky #addblackgaysky #animation #indieanimation #Christmas2024 #HappyHolidays

#BlackSky #AddBlackGaySky #IndieAnimation I'm keeping an eye out for this one!

this animatic is beautiful and moving in how it covers part of the trans experience SO honestly and artistically, and in so little time, with no dialogue imagine what the finished scene could have been this is what they took from us 😞

You know, I suddenly remembered that I was in the middle of a binge watch for this show because of this post. I think I might get back on that.

THE KNOWLEDGE GNOME SAYS KNOW BEFORE YOU GO VOTE! TAG members, here's what to know before agreeing to the tentative deal!

Introduce yourself as a Black TV Character #AddBlackGaySky

Thank you for getting me to 30 followers! Always happy for any support I get!

Reminder: Block the MAGA trolls, then hide reply for everyone. If you only block them, only you can't see them. Cut off their oxygen by also hiding their replies from everyone. They've no followers of their own, so they suffocate and cease to exist when you cut off thier access to your followers.

MAGA is going to chase you over here. They'll chase you where ever you go on social media. They can't survive without making you miserable. Why do you think Truth social failed? They need conflict. Don't give it to them and don't engage. Bluesky has amazing block functions. Block them into the void.

I didn't want it to come to this, but I don't have a choice. I haven't found steady work since early 2023, and my savings are all officially gone. I need to survive the holidays while I continue searching for any kind of employment. If you can help, it would be greatly appreciated.

*sighs* This is exactly why I am going to need you ALL to get behind Jentry Chau Vs The Underworld as soon as it launches on Dec 5th. I promise you’re gonna love it. You’ll be gutted if we don’t get to tell more of her story (not in a cliffhangery way, in a these-characters-freaking-rule way).

This evil is returning. Call your local elected officials and ask what they're going to do to stop it.

If you're an artist who juggles a day job, a social life, and trying to keep up a regular sleep schedule while eating and treating your body well, you know how hard it is to find the time and energy for your art. Don’t let doomscrolling steal that time.

How do y'all feel about me sharing sketches? I'm having computer trouble atm. And it unfortunately put a wrench in my art process.

To clarify, The Animation Guild is NOT on strike! 🚫 These March on the Boss events are ways to show the studios that animation workers are serious about getting a fair contract! 💪 If you’re in TAG, check your email 📧 for upcoming events! TAG or not, sign the contract to show support! ✊

replies felt weirdly discouraged on twitter (at least to me) but I really recommend getting back into the habit of telling artists directly when you like their stuff. not even in an engagement farming way, it just feels nice. nobody's day is going to be worse hearing that you like their work

Reminder that Disney are a bunch of rat-faced cowards.

Bring out the tomes!

I'd choose Fennekin, Turtwig, and Mudkip! No questions asked!

🇫🇷Si vous voulez préserver votre cerveau des zinzins pro-MAGA qui voudront transformer Bluesky en Xitter 2, voici une blocklist pour vous. 🇺🇸If you want to protect your brain from MAGA chuds who want to turn Bluesky into Xitter 2, here’s a blocklist for you. bsky.app/profile/did:...

We are currently working on an indie animated projects starter pack! You can find it here go.bsky.app/8SMjak4 If your project isn't here, please let us know and we will add it!

Some doomer accounts are posting under supportive statements to try to upset people. Regardless of political lean, you are blocked. People want help, not you. I will not allow them to deal with your nonsense when some of these people are young and need guidance, or some advice on helping others.

💜🌙 Zira talks! And she sounds like the talented Bennett Abara!! 🌙💜 Bennett was so effortlessly funny, I was smiling and laughing through the whole recording session! You’re gonna love her as Zira <3

it's important for anyone, but especially artists to be very vocal, loud, and proud about their stances on human rights/politics. Our work reaches communities, what we create, share & show makes a difference. Art cannot be separated from humanity. Keep making things that showcase the world you want
