Art is going to be so bad when only privileged wealthy people can afford to make it.

Georgina Kiersten @ingloriousgigi.bsky.social · 4d

You should be concerned about the rate of authors leaving publishing. Especially from marginalized communities. This year I have seen so many authors just pack it up and go. And it's only getting worse.

Very popular in manga!

Got my first "this is bad bc it's gay" review for "On Guard!" ✌️

It's so subtle and like, not even a plot point which makes this even stranger.

Anyway - On Guard! is available at your favorite book store!

It’s Banned Books Week, and I don’t need you to buy my book as a solve for it (but buy it if you want to! That’s still extremely cool of you)—I need you to show up for your public libraries and your schools!

Happy #BannedBooksWeek my good peeps! Over the past few years I've been progressively cataloguing graphic novels banned from the public. Living in Texas it's a very close to home issue and I enjoy sharing what stories I can. You can find my banned books collection here! tagpacker.com/user/webcomi...

Damn. This is amazing. £325 per week, paid monthly, for 3 years - and the result was a profit for the Irish economy:

Post from Threads user rodneyowl: "Ireland has declared the Basic Income for Artists scheme permanent. This will be officially announced in tomorrow’s budget. Details to follow. Congratulations to all who fought for it and the present and future artists of all sorts in Ireland. That includes me 👌We’re just comin to the end of a 3 year pilot scheme. It’s been a roaring success. For every €1 paid out to the 2000 participants, the government got €1.46 back. Can’t argue with that. Other countries are already taking note."
