Excited to keep doing the work of tracking our rates, wages, advances and more here at the Coop! No one else is doing it here in the US and its crucial we understand where our industry is heading and demand fair pay! Excited for the new demographic and comic format questions we have as well 💰📚

I’m so sick of people like this thinking they can oppress my industry with rules that make it impossible to earn a living, and dismantle free speech, while simultaneously selling our labor behind their brand name. People are losing futures over this. It makes me so sick.

No intention of appealing to Western cliche, but it happened in World War Two, when the nazis systematically dismantled and transported the art of Europe behind enemy lines, behind the nazi veil. What ai tech bros do to human art, expressions and the concept of consent is no different.

This is cool after the war on everything called “porn” by platforms and payment processors. A machine that stole all your words can generate and sell “erotica” but you can’t haaa

reminder that free speech is a privilege and not a right—those in power will challenge your right to free speech at every turn if you do not stand up for yourself and those around you

This is "debanking", and its a problem that has plagued sex workers for decades. It isnt right when its targetting sex workers and its not right when its targetting game devs and creators either.

Give paypros and your givt reps your grievances and demand that debanking of adult content stop

Per Reddit: Steam adult developer in the UK is sitting on a USD equivalent of six figures, can’t find a bank to take his money because the developer creates adult games

I develop adult video games on Steam. I can't find a bank that will actually let me withdraw my money from Steam. Can I get some advice?
Game has sold quite well on Steam. I've got almost £90,000 ready to withdraw after Steam's cut + VAT taken off.

However, it's been 2 months now and I can't find ANY bank in the UK who will let me withdraw my money from Steam.

I've been banned/refused/unable to get a business account with:

Wise
Revolut
Monzo
Monese
Chase
Starling
Nationwide
Halifax
Barclays
Lloyds
RBS

It always comes down to, "Where did you get this money from?"

"It's coming from games I sell on Steam."

"Can we see the store page?"

"Sure."

"I'm sorry, we can't do business with you at this time."

It keeps coming down to a commercial decision purely because I make adult content.

What the hell am I supposed to do? I've pretty much exhausted the whole banking system. I just want to be able to be paid for products I've sold.

All of Robin Wall Kimmerer's books are amazing reads, but Braiding Sweetgrass, being probably her most popular, is an excellent starting point. We could all stand to brush up on the community lessons found in The Serviceberry, too.

For anybody who wants a good book rec, read Braiding Sweetgrass

As a botanist and member of the Citizen Potawatomi Nation, Robin Wall Kimmerer embraces the notion that plants can benefit from human presence - an empathetic Indigenous concept which deconstructs the colonial lens.

LITTLE DEATH is my erotic horror-supernatural romance webcomic about a hot trans guy and a hot necromancer lich.
littledeathcomic.com

Little Death Chapter 3: Glass King, Page 1
This page shows various views of Kolgothoi Keep, the stronghold where the main story takes place.

Little Death Chapter 3: Glass King, Page 2
Ellery and Callisto are walking through the keep. Ellery says “where are you taking me?” Callisto replies “The dungeon. It’s bristling with spiders. Are you still afraid of spiders, little hen?”

Little Death Chapter 3: Glass King, Page 3.
Ellery looks scared but Callisto pats his head in an avuncular gesture. “Oh it was a joke” he says “I’m taking you to the great hall. We have an esteemed guest and I want you to entertain him.”
Ellery considers this for a moment before blushing. “Would you prefer the dungeon?” Callisto asks. “No!” Ellery says.
