This is probably true for all devs and artists using a site like this to share their creative works. Share your work do it often and treat it like you hope others will and celebrate it.

Today we just got 100 new followers and a bunch of people saying "whoa I've never heard of this" re: the game we have been thumping into the ground for the last 3 years by posting one gif from our earliest demo. If you think you post too much about your game: you probably don't!

Many full time creatives have “invisible safety nets” like bread-winning partners, trust funds, external support, etc. No shame on anyone, but it creates a false vision of success. The cost of going to cons alone on top of hoping to eat as a freelancer are untenable, IMO.

OoOhh I love dinosaurs

I'm so goddamn tired of saying this but: this is it.

All the worrying that trans folks have had since he took office? This is why. This is the first step on a short road that ends with the criminalization of trans existence in the US. It isn't doomsaying. It isn't panic. It's right in front of us.

So I just got the notification confirming that my food stamps will not be refilled for November thanks to the shutdown.

Come to table r20 at mcm london in artist alley to buy my stuff (including Gord socks) and debate me or whatever idk.

Annoyingly, my laptop charger has gone *phut!* so I'm looking to cover the cost of the charger by way of a commission!

£25 (via Kofi) gets you a shaded waist-up plus background.

Art will be worked on as soon as I have the charger and my laptop is up and running again ❤️

This person is one hundred percent correct and it’s scary af. We will never “media literacy” our way out of this as a society. We are about to reap the whirlwind when it comes to misinformation, disinformation, and informational warfare.

The Gamer was pretty much the *only* outlet willing to stick their neck out for us adult game makers. Their coverage was invaluable in getting the word out about payment processor censorship 😥

Agreed. I also don't think it's fair that we're pitting shows that are made by well-funded/marketed studios against smaller teams with lower income/reach. There's a lot of reasons why that's a bad thing, but the immediate issue here is it being discouraging to less fortunate creators.

Sen. Ed Markey, a white man with white hair, standing at a lectern with a dark background, and Sen Elizabeth Warren to camera right, in a black top with a red blazer. Markey wears a trans pride flag draped over his shoulders. The closed caption reads "trans people because trans righs are human rights. We" The chiron underneath reads "No Kings Rally Underway In Boston"

Senator Ed Markey (D-MA) at the Boston No Kings rally today, wore the trans pride flag like a scarf draped over his shoulders and included in his speech. "Because here in Massachusetts, we stand for what is right. We stand with trans people because trans rights are human rights."

The world lost a genial man, a genius communicator and a supreme artist. I lost a friend - beloved Drew.

Rebecca Sugar helming a Moomin project is an idyllic "you got your peanut butter in my chocolate" scenario. I can't think of a better person for it. Can't wait to hear more about it as it develops!

zeldawilliams 20m From Create Mode •• Please, just stop sending me AI videos of Dad. Stop believing I wanna see it or that I'll understand, I don't and I won't. If you're just trying to troll me, I've seen way worse, i'll restrict and move on. But please, if you've got any decency, just stop doing this to him and to me, to everyone even, full stop. It's dumb, it's a waste of time and energy, and believe me, it's NOT what he'd want. To watch the legacies of real people be condensed down to 'this vaguely looks and sounds like them so that's enough, , just so other people can churn out horrible TikTok slop puppeteering them is maddening. You're not making art, you're making disgusting, over-processed hotdogs out of the lives of human beings, out of the history of art and music, and then shoving them down someone else's throat hoping they'll give you a little thumbs up and like it. Gross.

And for the love of EVERYTHING, stop calling it 'the future. Al is just badly recycling and regurgitating the past to be reconsumed. You are taking in the Human Centipede of content, and from the very very end of the line, all while the folks at the front laugh and laugh, consume and consume.

ICE just blatantly violated the law and arrested sitting Chicago Alderperson Jessie Fuentes while seeking to illegally arrest a patient in a hospital. Fuck these fascists.

KOSA is now in red alert priority.

Please contact your representatives, dem and gop alike, and demand they oppose KOSA

We need to turn out in numbers against this!

illustrations of Sparky, a character from glitch's new animated series Knights of Guinevere. A rough older man with a mustache and long greying hair, he smokes a sort of blue vape pen, wearing a tight black shirt and half-rolled-down orange visibility overalls. In one he has a gun vest and in the other he's got his arms crossed.

listen, I....
