I'm sad to see a lot of artists I know saying it's super hard to get sales. And it really is. So I wanna promote them here again.

Go check them out and buy or tip them if you can. This is the non-US shops list but I'll post other lists as well.

Oni @onidraws.bsky.social · Sep 11

I made a pack for non-US artists shops!
Let me know if you want to be added (with a shop link) or removed!

Det här är så otroligt dåligt av regeringen. De försvårar aktivt för alla som vill resa klimatsmart. Det är redan för dyrt och krångligt att ta tåget till kontinenten - regeringen verkar vilja göra det omöjligt.
Byt regering - satsa på nattågen.

there’s this weird idea a lot of people seem to have about how all of us writers and artists must secretly want to use AI and are merely resisting temptation for ethical reasons, and like, no, it’s not hard for me to resist drinking the bowl of Piss With Glass In It actually

Month of Darkness 05: Show me your fangs

No lick in particular this time. Skipping hair and likeness to any OC and just having some fun. Teeth are fucking hard.

I struggle with this also. It’s good to get out on a daily basis if possible, but it’s difficult to make it a habit if I don’t really have a specific reason to go out. ^^;

‼️🚨KICKSTARTER WORKERS ARE ON STRIKE🚨‼️

As of 8am this morning, the workers of Kickstarter United/OPEIU Local 153 are on strike.

WE ARE NOT ASKING FOR A BOYCOTT! Creators and allies, please continue using and supporting the platform.

Kickstarter United is on strike!
We are not asking for a boycott! Creators & Allies: Please continue to support & use the platform
swipe for ways to show your solidarity

Why We're Striking
A codified 4-day work week.
We simply want to protect the way we've been working for over 3.5 years. The 4dww has proven benefits, such as increased productivity and improved employee satisfaction. It's part of what makes Kickstarter a special, innovative place to work.
Fair pay for our lowest-paid workers.
We're fighting for livable minimum salaries for roles that are undervalued by the market but crucial to keeping Kickstarter running. We believe none of our workers should struggle to make ends meet.
