The World is burning but this a cool thing in my little art life.
I was chosen as the Poster Artist for the NS Folk Art Festival this year.

We need #furry solidarity at this point man.
Not just that either.
We need solidarity of all artists.
It's about the right to be free to make art at this point.

Posting art on IG/FB? Meta uses it to train AI without consent. You're surveilled & monetized. BlueSky is decentralized no corp owns your data. Join us. #DeleteInstagram #ArtExodus #BlueSkyArt #ArtistsDeserveBetter #Art #SaveArt #DeleteMeta #StopTheMachine #MetaMustFall #NoMoreManiupulation
If you're an ARTIST and you don't want AI TO STEAL YOUR WORK, please POISON YOUR ART. You will help to kill the disgusting technology that is killing art.
Here is how:

Art preservation is very important. Art describes history and uplifts humanity. It shows the creativity humans are capable of on every part of this earth. It gives us perspective on others and their culture. It is a shared experience.

"It's just that porn is high risk! .....specifically scat porn. That is higher risk than other types of porn. Yes, we checked. The hetero missionary stuff is okay for now." /s
It is ludicrous, absolutely absurd, to say that the current censorship regime for porn is about chargeback risk.

You have to understand, Paypal can't work with porn though because of the financial risks. It's just the practical financial risks and costs, it's not discrimination, Paypal would never work with a risky financial sector, it's not a discriminatory attack on sex workers it's just the

Dacad is a fantastic artist, and deserves tons of support, and the whole NSFW community deserves better platforms than Patreon.

There's no way that ChatGPT could do this tho because of the chargeback risks that are definitely a real thing that exist. /sarcasm
#AIBullshit #SaveArt
"But it's about chargeback risk!"
Oh, really? What's the chargeback risk here? Explain the risk.
How is this about *anything* other than moral policing and stigmatizing? There's zero risk to these banks.

Even with all the awareness that's been generated about these campaigns, I still think a lot of non-artist are in denial about what the effect is going to be.
If censorship campaigns continue, there is going to be less stuff made. Polished projects are going to be rarer.

Review bombing is petty and (like petitions) feels a little meaningless, but it's good practice for other activism, and is probably more likely to get attention than some of the other things we've been doing like mentioning owners or replying to threads.

If they weren't cultural and inclusive festivals but a religious festival or Tony Carreira duetting with the Prime Minister, they wouldn't lack support from Lisbon City Hall.

This is a good time for SFW artists to show solidarity with NSFW communities on this site. You're part of the what makes Bsky valuable, and it means a lot when you make it clear that we are part of the artistic community and that you consider our struggles to be yours.

Another day to remind you to contact @warnerbrospictures.bsky.social @warnerbrostv.bsky.social and tell them to NOT sell to the Fascist Oligarch Ellison who already owns Paramount! Enough is enough!

Screenshot from TOS: Animal Safety: We protect animals by prohibiting abusive or exploitative content. Do not create, share, or promote sexual content involving real animals or realistically depicted synthetic, simulated, illustrated, or animated versions. Do not share content depicting animal abuse, torture, fighting, staged rescues, or wildlife exploitation. These rules do not prevent you from sharing content about hunting, fishing, and other legal wildlife activities.
Also also also, speaking as a vegan, love to see that completely fictional depictions of feral furry porn are depraved, but shooting animals with a gun IRL is Totally Fine (tm).
We gotta make sure you understand that we allow *real* animal abuse! Don't worry! Just not in fiction.

People are acting like that tRump synchophant Ellison already owns WB, and he doesn't! And Universe willing he never will!!
Make your voice heard! Tell @warnerbrospictures.bsky.social @warnerbrostv.bsky.social not to sell out to Nazis!!

It's like minimalism has become the new Brutalist movement. Stark contrast, flat colors, & hard angles. Have curves & gradients become too much of a challenge?!? C'mon guys, you're better than that. 2/2 #SaveArt #ShowSomeImagination
I've been thinking a lot recently about both what communities should focus on if phone calls are slow to affect things, AND also what non-phone things critters with anxiety could do.
I think maybe companies like Patreon, Picarto, Bandcamp might be good to email. Hear me out:

I've been doing free YCHs for anypony who calls into a payment processor, sometimes with extra rewards for long calls. New meta strategy from @allihearismeep.bsky.social: periodically pause mid-sentence and say, "I'm so sorry, I'm at work, can you hold on for just a second?" Repeat.

2 day ago WPP Media announced that it had won a $180 million contract with Mastercard "to lead global media strategy, planning, and buying across more than 70 international markets"
Would it be helpful to give them some feedback?

Screenshot from linked article: These rules do not prevent you from posting content that involves: Journalism, Education, and Advocacy: Factual reporting, academic research, or educational content about criminal acts, violence, mental health, online safety, youth risks, or public interest issues. Anti-violence advocacy, safety campaigns, or prevention resources. Content warning about dangerous viral challenges. Artistic, Fictional, and Historical Expression: Depictions of violence or sensitive topics in fiction, art, or historical documentation—if appropriately labeled and not glorifying harm. Internationally recognized art containing non-sexualized images of minors. Support, Recovery, and Mental Health: Personal experiences with recovery, therapy, or surviving violence, shared to raise awareness or foster support. Support group discussions and general mental health resource sharing. Animals and Nature: Content about animal welfare, veterinary education, responsible wildlife photography, or legitimate rescue operations. Transparency and Public Information: Publicly available information related to government transparency or public officials. Personal information you share about yourself that does not violate other rules.
Bluesky's new TOS includes a few new phrases that either weren't present in the original or that are rephrased.
Just to make 100% sure that I understand: if I share a video clip of John Wick, does that violate this policy by glorifying violence/harm?

The only other thing I'll say on Itch right now is that if you're upset that Itch didn't prepare for this, can I bother you to hit the "Feedback" link on this app and ask @bsky.app what plans it has in place to support adult creators when it eventually launches creator tipping?
