She/Her/21+/mixed latina, Pan, illustrator/comic artist/writer. I love cute things, talking comics, Green Lantern, & history. Trying to catch up on everything.
I don’t think some people realize how hard the tariffs will hit us. Artists and small businesses (like me!) will go back to paper bookmarks and laminated keychains. Say goodbye to plushies, acrylic charms, any and all of the amazing merch that you love. Show’s over.
As Donald Trump readies to return to the Oval Office, U.S. retailers that depend on foreign suppliers are prepared to pass along the cost of his proposed import tariffs to consumers, potentially leading to higher prices for a range of products. cbsnews.com/news/trump-vic…
It'd be a shame if artists voiced their opinions and flooded their system. Definitely don't do that.
Good morning y'all, and apologies for the radio silence! So, three things: 1) Happy international lesbian day! 2) One year since we'd announced Soul Restruct! 3) Happy birthday to our Emily Ordica!

🚨BREAKING: tentative ruling in AI copyright lawsuit is FAVORABLE to artists @SarahCAndersen, @kortizart & @Kelly_McKernan, allowing discovery to proceed. Quotes: "Beyond the Training Images theory (that suffices for direct infringement as to Stability, Runway, and Midjourney), plaintiffs have plausibly alleged facts to suggest compress copies, or effective compressed copies albeit stored as mathematical information, of their works are contained in the versions of Stable Diffusion identified. At this juncture, plaintiffs should be allowed to proceed with discovery. The facts regarding how the diffusion models operate, or are operated by the defendants, should be tested at summary judgment against various direct and induced infringement theories and precedent under the Copyright Act." - "I am inclined to GRANT the motions to dismiss all DMCA claims. (...)" - "I am inclined to DENY Midjourney’s motion to dismiss the false endorsement and trade dress claims." ➡️This is an extremely important lawsuit that might change copyright law in the age of Generative AI. ➡️Link to the tentative ruling below. ➡️For more info on AI lawsuits, subscribe to my weekly newsletter.
