Create NSFW art

Porn is not evil, sex is not abhorrent, pleasure is not a crime

Even if you don't agree with all kinks doesn't mean they should be allowed to censor art

This is why we have tags and the blick button, not megacorps deciding what we can and cannot like

Always resist oppression

to everyone saying “i’m moving to ireland”

…you do realize that you can advocate for fair artist payment in the states… right? this didn’t happen overnight and neither will the US version of this.

sue me for being optimistic

Huge thanks to @Blitzydood for editing this together and thanks to UmbrellaFuFu for creating the Ratsune PNG Tuber you see here! :) ❤️

and hey on the topic of ID laws

do you really trust Bluesky, whose admin and c-suites physically cannot stop themselves from posting-through-it, to be able to hold onto your fucking govt ID and not leak it in a data breach like Discord?

these policies suck, they are dangerous, call your reps

It's nice to see my colleagues openly show their support for the lgbtq, but it's also disappointing how silent that support was when your lgbtq colleagues were being attacked a few months ago by the same community you are standing up for.

I didn't know about this Signal For Help hand gesture until today. I'm quite sure that a lot of other people don't know it either (as demonstrated in this video). If you just learned it now too then it was worth posting.

all discourse aside, there is one machine with consciousness. it's printers. they are alive and conscious and they hate you and they'd take your arm clean off if you let them. never trust a printer.

The thing with bluesky using AI to moderate images isn't that it's training on them, think for 10 fucking seconds about it, but that they are saying "yeah we outsourced that shit entirely, we got no control over it. It says label, we label" etc

Sonic Hacking Contest for this year's started up recently, this is normally where I'd start up a thread (esp since I missed out on doing one for SAGE) but I'm putting this up.

Rest well, Charlotte.

I cannot stress how important Rebecca has been for trans gamedevs. I wouldn't be here if not for her and her wife.

Help if you can.

Spotify has the WORST audio quality out of every other streaming platform

It is also the most expensive

They support Joe Rogan

Apple and amazon let you upload your own files to the library.

Tidal and Apple have spatial audio even on PC (need atmos+AC3)

There is no reason to use spotify

It’s really hard to describe to people who are not artists how survival mode does *not* inspire creativity, as the myth would have us believe. It suppresses creativity as you try to limit every possible risk – and the opportunities that come with them.

think i forgot to upload this one

Oh, that's too good

Also felt like doodling Angewomon today. With a bit of melanin. <3 #digimon #fanart

please support ur friends making creative shit in this cruel world. u have no idea how much a kind comment can mean to an artist when every website just tries to make you focus on the numbers

this was called Cohost—not enough people used it or spent money on it relative to the amount of money it cost to (1) pay its 4 employees a living wage for their labor; and (2) keep the site running, so it died, nothing like it has taken its place at the scale it existed, and now we're here

i love the domino effect of trans people asking the moderation team to take harassment of trans people seriously and instead decided to perma ban a black guy who was one of the earliest users here

The all-knowing bsky mods gave Erin Biba a 24 hour suspension for a months-old skeet about Christian Zionism, and I’m sure it’s just a coincidence that this happened when she’s been vocally criticizing Jay
