Pretty sure that *NO KINGS* is a "foundational truth[] of this republic."

Johnson: "We call it the Hate America Rally that will happen Saturday. Let's see who shows up for that. I bet you you'll see Hamas supporters, I bet you'll see antifa types, I bet you'll see Marxists on full display, people who don't want to stand and defend the foundational truths of this republic"

PLEASE DON'T SUPPORT THIS "INDIE PROJECT"

IT'S GENERATIVE AI SLOP

Very disappointed that no one is calling it out in the comments. But it's possible they could be deleting negative ones.

I was fooled by the preview image thinking "OMG GIRL BALTO" but nope, AI slop. #furry #furryart #animation

Don't know how many times I need to say it but advice giving and harm prevention are important, specialist skills. All of us can learn them, but automating 'help' via the massive environment-destroying plagiarism generator is not the answer and remains a danger.

The second week of October is here. So far we've made it to just 10% of this month's goal. Gonna be real, I'm a little worried about next month. If we can reach halfway, at least I can secure food for myself, dad and my cat. I'll continue working and doing the best I can.

I love Silksong and been meaning to make a lot of Hornet fanart but uh, my fool brain keeps insisting on drawing Hornet like that first drawing

ko-fi.com/mayuzane
patreon.com/mayuzane

Two doodles of Hornet from the videogame Hollow Knight and Silksong. The first doodle has Hornet's head being comically massive, with an arrow pointing to her and text that says "I don't know why but whenever I try to draw Hornet this is what my brain instantly conjures up". The second Hornet doodle is more proportionally-correct with another arrow pointing to her and the text says "Hornet after I consciously tell my brain "no Hornet is not that!!!"

Hey #portfolioday I usually make stuff for things like ttrpgs & movies. The last 2 yrs have been a lot of applying/rejections & it was making me think things like ‘you’ll never work again’/‘you were never good enough to stay’. So I said F*ck it & started making my own things.

I live in an old house with collapsing ceilings. Every day there is a chance of debris falling on my head. So commissions are always open, and when I'm not doing that I'm almost always busy irl trying to make ends meet too. Dad's still bankrupt.

Even a dollar means a lot:

My fantasy adventure comic Merchant Band has updated! Here's a preview.

A door to Truth.

#furry #furryart #furrycomic #webcomic

A three-panel comic. The first panel shows Nix reaching out with her right hand. The second panel shows a door being opened with bright light coming out, as Nix's hand holds onto the door handle. The third panel shows a portrait of Ozeron, Nix's brother. The dialogue reads "Deep within, you miss him. Your brother Ozeron. He misses you too. Yet you will not meet him, for you are ashemed. You know that he was right, all along. He understood what you could not. He held more kindness and courage than you."
