We really need to double down on outwardly stating our work does not contain AI.

We're seeing it in movie credits and books, we have to start putting it on things we make and pressuring others to label their work as human made, and normalize that as much as we can, I think.
stuff like this maybe
Anti-A.I. stamps!

Magnetosphere, an allegory
30 x 24 in, Oil on panel, 2021, homage to Fumée D'Ambre Gris by John Singer Sargent.

In addition to the warmth and light we receive daily, our sun expels a constant barrage of dangerous charged particles called the solar wind.

Hey, instead of yelling at people about not using Alt text, if it's really important with you, post the alt text in comments.

Accessibility is important, yes, but let's not forget that people have different levels of energy to provide them.

It is not always malicious intent.
i think the accessibility features on bluesky are great but because i don't use the platform often, i always forget they're there. whenever i post my art, i post the same thing on all my socials at the same time, so it's a lot of copypasting.

@moderation.bsky.app I have chatted to Ruaa multiple times before and can confirm she is a real person on the ground in Gaza. She isn’t a bot, a scammer, or anything else of the sort. She is a young Palestinian who is trying to survive a genocide. Reinstate her account immediately.
NEWS ON RUAA. Moderation says she violated “Trust and Transparency” rules.

Well, @moderation.bsky.app, I know Ruaa and her extended family. I am the financial host for their fundraisers. I have seen their bank documents…because I have to. This is a real person. Restore her account. #FreeRuaa

Almost 1.3k written tonight 💪 Feels so good to be writing again, especially on a WIP that's had me feeling stuck for the longest time.

One of my more unhinged/hyper-specific videos about the House of Night series thus far. I had a lot of fun with it, though. Come down the rabbit hole with me!

I actually think it’s the perfect choice. It’s a bone bleached by sun, the 500 year old styrofoam still intact on polluted soil, a noxious fume billowing into sky, corporate minimalist interior, a splotch on an x-ray, the afterlives of the present.
Pantone’s 2026 color of the year is technically not a color at all — meet Cloud Dancer, the first-ever white shade to receive the designation from the world’s color authority.
Pantone makes a surprising choice for its 2026 color of the year

people who say this to me are not looking for permission to watch the thing or read the books. no one can stop them from doing that. they are looking for a hearty thumbs up, a pass on their guilt, but you can't stop me from thinking you're a fool who's not to be trusted
when that show comes out i better not hear a fucking word about it. no memes. no edits. "it was so important to my childhood--" okay well human rights are important to my adulthood??
