***EDITED LINKS*** links are now more direct, thank you @redstringraven for making me aware! I haven't been able to do much but spread awareness and make art, and I know if anyone would want to do all they could to stop the genocide in Gaza, it'd be these guys.

DAILY CLICKS (no money donation needed): arab.org/click-to-help/palesti…

Donate to the Palestinian Children's Relief Fund!: pcrf1.app.neoncrm.com/forms/ga…

E-SIMS (information on the brands needed & where to send info to): twitter.com/Mirna_elhelbawi/st…

NO one is free until we are ALL free! Don't stop talking about Palestine, they are being wiped from the census every day. Keep fighting, keep boycotting, and keep talking! Gen0cide is not a damn trend.

This also very much applies to fanfics. Some people need to take a step back and think before they make straight fools out of themselves.

listennnnn, please say it louder for the folks in the back.

y’all gotta learn to be ok when things aren’t about you/catering to your wants. and if you can’t learn to be ok, just don’t subject artists and writers to your whining.

Posting about this once again, now that we've been able to cover rent! Thanks to everyone who shared my last post, but unfortunately we're still skirting the line and unsure if we can cover next month.

I know it's hard out here for everyone, and I thank you for your support and well wishes. Puppy is recovering well!! <3

(Commissions can be made through messages. I draw fanart for multiple fandoms & do non-fandom art as well. I use PayPal for transactions.)

[escapism2k3]

❤️‍🩹 EMERGENCY COMMISSIONS! ❤️‍🩹

Followers, friends, and willing strangers, our puppy had to go to an ER Vet Friday for stitches and medication after getting a nasty bite that wouldn't stop bleeding. We had to use up rent money to cover everything and until I can secure an interview and job, commissions are my only means to contribute. We have until the 10th to pay.

If you are able to help, please consider based off the commission sheet below. I use CashApp, Venmo, and PayPal (PayPal takes some of the money that is sent, but I understand it's preferred for many ppl).

If you would just like an icon, I will gladly offer them at $5! Free cel shading for any full color piece & the option for a free icon with any $60+ commission!

Thank you for sharing! This is the sweet baby recovering:

A note to all creatives:

Right now, you have to be a team player. You cannot complain about AI being used to fuck over your industry and then turn around and use it on somebody else’s industry.

No AI book covers. No making funny little videos using deepfakes to make an actor say stuff they never did. No AI translation of your book. No AI audiobooks. No AI generated moodboards or fancasts or any of that shit. No feeding someone else’s unfinished work into Chat GPT “because you just want to know how it ends*” (what the fuck is wrong with you?). No playing around with AI generated 3D assets you can’t ascertain the origin of. None of it. And stop using AI filters on your selfies or ESPECIALLY using AI on somebody else’s photo or artwork.

We are at a crossroad and at a time of historically shitty conditions for working artists across ALL creative fields, and we gotta stick together. And you know what? Not only is standing up for other artists against exploitation and theft the morally correct thing to do, it’s also the professionally smartest thing to do, too. Because the corporations will fuck you over too, and then they do it’s your peers that will hold you up. And we have a long memory.

Don’t make the mistake of thinking “your peers” are only the people in your own industry. Writers can’t succeed without artists, editors, translators, etc making their books a reality. Illustrators depend on writers and editors for work. Video creators co-exist with voice actors and animators and people who do 3D rendering etc. If you piss off everyone else but the ones who do the exact same job you do, congratulations! You’ve just sunk your career.

Always remember: the artists who succeed in this career path, the ones who get hired or are sought after for commissions or collaboration, they aren’t the super talented “fuck you I got mine” types. They’re the one who show up to do the work and are easy to get along with.

And they especially are not scabs.

*that’s not even how it ends that’s a statistically likely and creatively boring way for it to end. Why would you even want to read that.
