Aximeck - Commissions Open!

I live in a world where someone will impersonate my dentist with a phonebot and not even take any personal information JUST to waste my time with a fake appointment.

No lie, this calling campaign is one of the most effective levers we have at the moment.

If we sustain the campaign through the financial quarter we'll be sending a strong message that this administration is bad for business.

Please continue making censorship unprofitable.

The unsavvy talk about furries like they're some hypersexual excretion of modernity, but drawing animal-people is one of the top 10 neolithic human activities. It's up there with collecting berries and producing clay figures of fat women.

Game Devs Says That Itch Adult Content Ban Is Targeting Lesbian Games, Even If They're Safe For Work Game devs say that yuri games are being disproportionately targeted for delisting and deindexing on Itch.

Generative Al is being marketed as a tool designed to reduce or eliminate the need for developed, cognitive skillsets. It uses the work of others to simulate human output, except that it lacks grasp of nuance, contains grievous errors, and ultimately serves the goal of human beings being neurologically weaker due to the promise of the machine being better equipped than the humans using it would ever exert the effort to be. The people that use generative Al for art have no interest in being an artist; they simply want product to consume and forget about when the next piece of product goes by their eyes. The people that use generative Al to make music have no interest in being a musician; they simply want a machine to make them something to listen to until they get bored and want the machine to make some other disposable slop for them to pass the time with. The people that use generative Al to write things for them have no interest in writing. The people that use generative Al to find factoids have no interest in actual facts. The people that use generative Al to socialize have no interest in actual socialization. In every case, they've handed over the cognitive load of developing a necessary, creative human skillset to a machine that promises to ease the sweat equity cost of struggle. Using generative Al is like asking a machine to lift weights on your behalf and then calling yourself a bodybuilder when it's done with the reps. You build nothing in terms of muscle, you are not stronger, you are not faster, you are not in better shape. You're just deluding yourself while experiencing a slow decline due to self-inflicted atrophy.

re: generative AI

I have finally fully and accurately explained my problem with how it’s marketed and used.

And now, you can use it, too.

Affirmations for every artist here!!!

Stop payment processors from censoring games!

If you're unsure of what to say or do, here's a great comprehensive guide site that has resources sorted by country, priority, and so on:
stop-paypros.neocities.org#petitions

We can do this!

Friendly reminder that y'all don't get fun sfw furry/queer stuff either if we let-up on pay-pros about this censorship.

They do it whether it's porn or not because anything that is outside a narrow field is "deviant".

If you're part of a fandom that does conventions, talk to everyone you know who does Artist Alley or the Dealer Room, because a ton of them will want to know about this and start shifting away from using Stripe.

Don't judge them, offer them concerns and alternatives.

Start cutting off Stripe's $$.

"Please oh please make all these small, personal sacrifices so that you can ease climate change and save valuable finite resources..."

...the politicians beg, while doing nothing to stop AI data centers and heavy industry from poisoning our world. Bulldoze the real problems, then we'll talk.

John Waters. "Remember, pornographers have always been on our side. Brave, ready to fight for our rights. Smut is our friend."

as always

More and more people reporting today that Stripe - the payment processor that Itch said were putting the most pressure on them - now have staff actively confirming that yes, they are censoring LGBT content, adult or otherwise. That this is official company policy.

This seems kinda significant.

Stripe crossed a line now.

Call up whatever local LGBT organizations exist in your area, gay activist groups, gay bars, pride organizing committees, folks who schedule drag shows, queer church groups, everyone.

Also libraries and bookstores.

Show up in person to talk to any business using Stripe.

Ren'Py please...I'm begging. I have the script written out, just let me play through it 😭

"Let's hope the bus is coming soon..."

This drawing is for all my homies who waited for a bus in the middle of nowhere late at night! 🚌🌃

This is not how corporations respond to an ineffective protest. This is how they respond to a protest that they would like to have go away.

So don't let it go away. Keep it going.

In fact, Streissand Effect this shit. Call attention to how much they want this to go away.

Anthropomorphic dip-pen and inkwell stand infront of a table stacked with books. Pen holds a sign with '18+' drawn on the center, with a heart around it. Inkwell is holding a paper colored rainbow with 'LGBTQA' upon it. Inkwell is holding a hand up in a 'stop' motion. Behind the table is the vague sense of a crowd also holding signs. Above image it reads: "CARTOONISTS Against Adult Content CENSORSHIP"

The Cartoonist Co-op stands against the censorship and pay discrimination of 18+, erotic, and NSFW artists.

Highly recommend folks interested in what’s been going on with Homestuck in 2025 give this a read. You can read the chat logs yourself and see the story of one person consistently trying to be cordial, professional, and respectful as they’re repeatedly legally threatened, deadnamed, manipulated, etc

Sad news: we did everything we could, but we couldn’t save The Unofficial Homestuck Collection. Here’s what’s been going on behind the scenes. Sorry in advance; it's real bad.

ToonBoom, Scrivener, trying my hand at Godot as well. There are projects I want to do and I want to have something started before I try asking people to come aboard XD

I want to be less scared of the programs outside of CSP that I use - I want to try and fail and know that it's okay to be frustrated.

I have the writing skills, I have art that I can make. I just need the code to glue it together 😤
