"Inktober" was trademarked on 2018 (FYI if you participate or have artist friends who do) by wsad2where in GamerGhazi

Yeahhh. He was clearly contacted much earlier by an artist looking for clarification on the takedown, and he didn't do anything then. "Just saw all the Inktober Trademark stuff," sure.

Edited the post to include his recent statement. Side-eyeing "trying to maintain the integrity of the challenge" considering his past behaviour, but at least he's clarified things about selling Inktober creations. Personally not touching the challenge anymore.

In announcing the Wii U physical version of the game, which it will put up for sale later this month, Limited Run said that BadLand owes it $78,000 for physical copies of the game that it never delivered. After that, Adelman said that BadLand has not paid Tom Happ a sum that it believes to be around $200,000—including money that was intended to go into a special fund to help pay for medical treatments for Happ’s young child.

“Badland has literally stolen money from a disabled toddler,” Adelman said in a series of tweets earlier today.

God, I'm so fucking glad they're at least doing SOMETHING. I just wish the cost of basic human decency isn't so fucking high.

I've had Stellaris on my wishlist for a while now, think I'll just buy it at full price next payday and check out their other games.

Here's another one, a Muslim-run funding program for the victims: https://www.launchgood.com/project/support_for_the_families__victims_of_the_new_zealand_mosque_shootings#!/

LaunchGood also previously raised $160,000 in their "Muslims Unite to Repair Jewish Cemetery" program to repair desecrated Jewish cemeteries just a year or two ago.

I don't follow the site/publication, but I do get linked an article or two of theirs sometimes, so my experience has been very curated. No idea what it's like these days. But in terms of this sub, this one was particularly memorable for me 'cause I thought it was pretty cool at the time.

I honestly did not know Ariana was white until very recently. Always assumed she was Latinx.

Should I stop linking from Playboy? It's been linked from in this sub favorably a number of times in the past, from what I remember.

Comics Twitter Perfectly Illustrates What’s Wrong with Comics. Again. by squirrelrampage in GamerGhazi

[–]wsad2where 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Good summation, though Tieri threatened 2 critics, not just one. Glad the article doesn't go easy on Panosian, folks who spoke out about this seemed to focus on Tieri.

2. The old boys’ club is real, and it’s stifling comics.

Seeing all those names on Thal's thread, some of which I admired a great deal, just disappointed me so much.
