I love the white outline you leave around everything. It's so charming!!

I love Lisa's art so much!!! 💛

The language of non-consent around AI is really telling. "It's too late to be scared." "It's here whether we want it or not." "You'll have to learn to work with it." "You can't fight the inevitable."

All just variations of "you're not allowed to say no." Creepy technology made by creepy people.

hi, cis folks!

trans people need your help! the FY26 budget gets a vote by 9/30. GOP wants a ban on funds for ALL health services that provide trans care for ANY AGE. they're trying for other bans, too.

we need you to call senators like chuck who don't get it: reps.fyi

OpenAI's new Sora video generator to require copyright holders to opt out, WSJ reports OpenAI is planning to release a new version of its Sora video generator that creates videos featuring copyrighted material, unless copyright holders opt out of having their work appear, the Wall Street Journal reported on Monday, citing people familiar with the matter.

Ridiculous and appalling that Open Ai, amongst other GenAi companies, think they can dictate how THEY use OUR works.

No, Open Ai, it should not be authors and copyright holders opting out of your exploitative models. It should be you, Open Ai, asking authors and copyright holders to opt IN.

Italy has moved me to tears for 3 days straight. Bravo ❤️

Every trans person who transitions later in life is a gift to the community.

Your example tells those still waiting: it’s not too late and you are not alone.

I think, in light of all the rotten people out there spreading terf nonsense, today would be a good day to support trans creators.

Trans folk, please add your links to this thread for books or crafts or whatever you do!

On that note:

Trans authors (I mean authors who are trans, NOT cis people who write about trans people), drop your book links here and I'll try to repost as many as I can throughout the day.

Cis people: Repost trans authors' book links.

Cis people who want to complain about being excluded: gtfo

Drawing of a mermaid resting, lying on the ground of a quiet cove, surrounded by plants and flowers, part of her tail and hair in water, while she gently watches three ducklings swimming among the lotus flowers

one-page comic, black and white and grayscale panel 1 : close up of a woman's hand, wearing rings, on an old spellbook page panel 2 : same woman's hands conjuring some black fire panel 3 (big) : woman sitting on the floor where a pentagram is drawn, with skulls and candles, while a tiny demon with horns seems to jump out of the spellbook right on her legs, visibly very happy the woman's wearing converse-like shoes, jeans, a tope revealing her shoulders (and a big tatto on the left one), she has a choker necklace and hair loosely tied into a messy bun text : Look. There's never a perfect time to cast your first spell. Especially as a self-taught witch. Reckless ? Sure. But the truth is... I needed a friend."

Color piece, drawing of a witch floating in the night sky, surrounded by glowing purple/pink swords she just summoned, a real giant rapier hovering next to her, her long curly hair almost wrapped around its blade She has roses and thorns tattooed on her right upper arm, glowing magical patterns on the left one, a white tank top, skirt, tight with floral patterns, no shoes, and a fierce expression on her face Pink moon and purple clouds in the background

They're so charming Matty!!!

Compilation of Hayao Miyazaki complaining about his work and suffering through it.

When I am like now, where I am like 'damn I cannot draw and all I have ever made looks like a pile of shit' I find comfort in this. Artists are so fucking cursed, man. We're so cursed. 💀

oh no T^T What a thing to happen so early in the day. And all of the ink that got used, that's the worst!!

Can I give you a heart for you're doing BakuDeku zines though! 💛 Even from far away your drawings and set ups looks so good!

Meta to launch California super PAC focused on AI The tech giant plans to spend tens of millions backing candidates in state races.

Look at what Meta has to do to offset the power of organized labor and creatives!

So want to continue fighting against Meta’s Super Pac? One thing you could do is send letters to Californian legislators to pass AB-412, a pivotal transparency bill! Do so here👇

Hi authors! Please remember to file a claim!

aw thanks so much Theeio 💛

I love how in that in between stage body parts grow a different rates. Skinny long legs and torso hasn't caught up yet ^^

And I love how clothes can enhance that too! I tried to make her shoes bigger to make legs feel even more gangly 🥰

Drawing of Jinx from Arcane in between S01 Eps3 and 4. Jinx looks at the viewer with a defiant stare, her awkward hunched pose not yet showing the confident stance we know her for. Legs bowed inward she glances at you from behind bangs that hide half her face, half of what she's thinking. From how unruly her hair hangs below her hips, untied and unkempt, it looks like she's a feral child, more then a well kept orphan. Boots that are too big for her contribute to accentuate her awkwardness as they contrast her thin skinny legs poking out like sticks from the encased grave.

Jinx doodle

This drawing came out of a conversation I had with a coworker

What Jinx might look like in between Eps03-04...the awkward stage between being a child and a grown teenager, where your legs are all gangly and proportions haven't fully set in 💛

#KPopDemonHunters really proves that every time this industry underestimates teenage girls, it leaves a billion dollars on the table.

On Tuesday afternoon, I sat down with Mike De Luca and Pam Abdy — co-chairs and CEOs of Warner Bros. Motion Picture Group — for an hour-long conversation about power, taste, fear, and the future of film. substack.com/@franklinleo...

On filmmaking and the politics of the day:

I’ve been thinking about this today after spending almost 2 hours trying to draw a single pose sketch of a character… being able to tolerate the frustration and push through when it becomes hard (and it almost always does) is the main trait that you can develop to improve your art

Got contemplative boys on my mind 💛
