My favorite page from my new comic

Ahh thank you so much! I tried my best to be intentional in all my artistic and storytelling choices. Glad you notice it!

just read it and it's soooo good... your inking is incredible (command of anatomy && emotional weight & stylistic nods & setting && props... ), not to mention the details such as the dialogue accent. and the symbol on the fish girl changing. so much to pour over. ty for making!!

Odd Fish by @peakbuns.bsky.social

Check out this incredible project I've been working on the past while. I made a whole comic about a fisherman zaddy encountering a weird fishy girl 🐟

Pro-Problematic Vol. 1 is out now on proproblematic.com! It’s an independent, anti-censorship, anti-puritan, original illustration and comic anthology featuring 100 pages by 13 artists. Page previews (a thread):

fiction is a safe space to think of unsafe things if you feel it's messing you up, step away. don't assume it's messing everyone up and you need to eradicate it because you caught a case of the feel-bads from something. go sit with that and think about why instead of pissing in everyone else's cheerios.

どうしてやめられないんだろう

Bsky's new TOS cracks down on adult content and goes into effect on Oct 15 🚫

We want better content labels, NOT censorship. Use the feedback form to demand change

They've forgotten the only reason bsky exists is because nsfw artists, sex workers, & the trans community left twitter

#bskycensorship

Actually, deep down we all want a demon like that; it's fun. 🖤 #nsfwart #nosferatu

What about murder? Is it okay if I draw a fictional murder?

Noooo I saw it and immediately thought about how perfect the colors are

Meme from Parks and Recreation of Ron handing a paper to an officer and saying “Not to worry. I have a permit.” Followed by a closeup image of the paper being held by the officer, edited to read: “Every fictional character I’ve drawn and will draw having sex, has consented to being drawn that way. They told me themselves.”

Anyway, here’s your form of consent, Bluesky.

You are actively threatening artist's livelihoods in order to "protect" people from a "danger" that doesn't exist

Do NOT believe the misinfo going around

There absolutely have been MASSIVE TOS updates

Most notably:

1) Specifying no FICTIONAL noncon
2) No "dangerous" kink
3) No DISCUSSING self harm, suicide, or substance abuse unless its "educational"

So what can we DO about it?

In your effort to appease puritans you're removing the only part that made this website special

Artwork "Saturn devouring his son" but with a "I consent!" sticker placed on where the dead body's head would be.

I can draw anything. I can make characters as abstract or grounded as I please. I can put them in peril or paradise at the flick of a wrist and the wisp of a whim. I can tear them to shreds and they'll be fine because I decide they're fine. Because it's all fake. You are trying to chain daydreams

You might see several artists mad about the bluesky policy update banning non-con, even artists who do not make that kind of material, and wonder why it's such a problem. If that's you, here is a quick breakdown:

🧵

Today was a day. Just a day was all it was.

A lot of my followers and general sphere understands this but it's really important we recognize that even if we don't like some art for personal moral reasons, we need to defend its right to exist. We went from no rape to no cat ears in less than two months. Everyone who warned about this was right

The impulse to say that erotica CAN'T say anything of value, that porn MUST be mindless indulgence, is an extension of this problem by the way.

Sex and kink are just parts of life. Art that explores both primarily can touch on other subjects meaningfully as well. Stop trying to silo everything.

They were never going to stop at what was "legal" or not. They didnt to begin with!

All art/media is on the chopping block. You have to fight this NOW. keep calling, contact your reps. Make some noise!

He just made me realize that cartoons don't got it like that anymore
