The Internet is good sometimes.

Reminder: This vast consolidation of wealth and power at the top has not been due to neutral market forces.

There’s no such thing as a “free market.”

It is designed.

It either advances public purposes or it serves the monied interests.

It's insane seeing this and having just watched a bootleg of stranger things: the first shadow, wishing I could've gone seen it in person.

Like buddy, if it's outdated WHY ADAPT ONE OF YOUR BIGGEST IPS TO IT?

All media mergers end up hurting writers, actors, directors, and everyone else who works in the industry. Executives, assistants, caterers, teamsters, everyone. Fewer companies means fewer jobs, period.

the fact that patreon employees will just straight up say, to your faces now, "I stalked your other accounts and found something in a *cartooning style* that made me personally uncomfortable so I'm taking your income away" should be way more alarming to people.

“if you are drawing, you *are* working”

congressional candidate @katmabu.bsky.social, who was federally indicted after an anti-ICE protest, is taking a unique approach to fundraising for both her campaign and legal battle: twitch streaming. so far, it's working

The fascists are counting on you finding erotica and porn too distasteful to support. Because they always start here. And even if they ended here, sexuality and erotism are integral components of queer expression. You can't support queer creators without supporting 'nsfw' content.

Live with the Policy Team Join the Policy Team on Thursday, December 11th (12-1pm EST) for a livestreamed conversation about proposed updates to Patreon's Community Guidelines. The discussion will cover new policy proposals around Teen Safety and Harassment, and will further clarify existing Adult/18+ guidelines based on recent creator feedback. Your feedback is a huge part of how policy at Patreon is formed, and no changes will be finalized until we've had a chance to talk with you about them. The last policy livestream had a record number of attendees, and we'd love to keep you just as involved as we close out 2025.

Patreon Policy Team emailed creators saying they'll host a livestream clarifying existing 18+ guidelines on DEC 11.

If you're a creator please show up!
You can submit issues you'd like them to cover in the rsvp form.

ngl the person who paid $66.60 on my lil goat painting went directly to my bp medication plus high protein foods to manage my diabetic diet. it matters so very fuckin much, thank you to everyone who has gotten somethin from me. yall make a huge impact.

I love Quentin Tarantino's movies, they're a vital part of my career and my life, and every time he does a podcast or gives in an interview it's a sharp reminder of the genuine intellectual danger of spending 30 years of your life with everyone around you treating you like a genius at all times

o pato trouxe algo muito bom, gente.

e minha regra atual, pra quem quiser, tem sido:
- vai acrescentar algo na conversa?
- no lugar de quem foi citado, eu gostaria de ler isso?

se alguma dessas respostas for não, eu não posto.

I was unemployed for 7 months, every week I would see another project cancelled or studio shut down and think “well, fuck, that’s another 6-12 producers added to the group of us looking, applying to maybe 1-3 quality jobs available” and it sucked. It doesn’t reflect any of our skills or drive.

I own a ton of these skirts and they're excellent. Support a small business that employs real artists

Since it must be done, I'm here to explain why being a BIPOC (Black and Indigenous Person Of Color) is really hard in online and fandom spaces. I'll be explaining it in a way that might make better sense to those that can't perceive it.

Being a queer person in a room full of straight people. 🧵

old male wrestlers will throw up 1048402582 red flags with how they talk about women, but male fans will still insist he's 'one of the good ones' bc their little minds cant handle their heroes being clocked as misogynist. now i call that parasocial

As someone who works in the tech industry--absolutely.

They are testing the waters. These are top-down orders. The ONLY way to stop it is a visceral negative reaction. Write articles. Post your rage. Email. Post. @. All those things.

Only you have the power to kill it.

I love paying human artists and I hate gen AI 🩵

I'm not here to fight about whether or not AI is ethical (I've made my decision and I doubt I'm gonna change yours.) I'm just here to talk about what I and many other artists have been dealing with as we adjust to a new media landscape.
