PayPal is updating their ToS to let themselves give your data to merchants starting in November and they're certainly banking on people not knowing to opt out, SO to opt out before they start: go to Settings > Data & Privacy > Manage shared info > Personalized shopping, and toggle that shit off

Screenshot of PayPal's Terms of Service update, outlining their "personalized shopping" feature where they allow themselves the right to give info about you to other companies

Screenshot of the page on LinkedIn for generative ai. It reads:

I‘d say a good base shape is this kind of trapeze. This is often what I start with. I have some small tutorial on top and some messy speedpaint below. The rest is details. Study the shoes you wanna draw. Sneakers have specific structures and so do boots. Study the stitches and different parts.

I finally had some time to test out the Ohuhu markers I got for my birthday. The whole summer I've been super busy between family events, kids being off school, and working on 2 book projects. I'm hoping things will slow down a bit now so I can fit in some personal art here and there again.

Traditional illustrations of ostriches made with markers and colored pencils.

A friend pointed out a good problem they have with drawing pants on walking movement and I love drawing folds so I tried to do a little show and tell on pant folds. I love how @kodyisover.bsky.social visualized the problem! It’s such a common issue I sometimes still struggle with too!

Quick sketch by Kody to show how while drawing folds of someone walking how the folds of the front leg look like they should be for the back leg
Collage from me showing some different pants and how the fabric would pull within the movement of walking

I’m gonna be doing this with #SCBWI#KidLit folks who are new to BlueSky (or haven’t joined yet) more acquainted with the platform, how it works & how features like Feeds can be helpful for our community.
