...bro, no. okay, see this is the fucking problem [pulls down mic, TW, SA ment] if you are at any point writing anything "dub-con" or "cnc" and the reader is like, completely incoherent, completely unagreeing to everything that's happening, doesn't fully know what's happening, and at no point during the fic do you disclose or hint or underline that this was some kind of consensual agreement (and/plus) there is no aftercare, that is not cnc. that is not dub-con. that is r*pe. you just wrote a fanfiction about r*pe.

Girl no offense but as someone who is actually not white & IS indigenous it would be really awesome if you stopped jerking around your Cherokee princess card like it means anything lol. We’ve seen your selfies and there’s no chance on earth anyone would ever see you as nonwhite so uhhh stop lol. It’s embarrassing and eye roll worthy

lmao no offense but you're being hella racist <3 idk what your point is at all here? "stop mentioning your culture" ??? might wanna clean up on that instead of gatekeeping an entire continent's worth of tribes and cultures, it ain't a good look.

THE STRIKE ENDS TMR BUT THIS ISNT AN EXCUSE TO STOP TALKING ABOUT PALESTINE.

wow, okay, transphobia isn't fucking welcome on this blog! and if you have a problem with that i'll block you, bitch!

[prince-peachie]

probably an unpopular opinion but people really should refrain from correcting artist’s artworks

[66stitches]

If I see one (1) more person posting edits about the Mendendez brothers from that shitty fucking show by Ryan Murphy I am going to lose it

[lightyaoigami]

americans only others look away this doesn't apply to you: i shouldn't be surprised that the most braindead political takes really catch flight on the website where white american suburban ex-evangelical shut-ins who use their queerness as a cudgel against other marginalized identities hang out lmao

New Year’s resolution is to post more so I’m gonna start off with critiquing generative AI.

My dad sent me this for new years. Obviously he didn’t know it was Ai and I didn’t immediately know for sure but I got the feeling. The feeling that’s like “hey something is off about this.” I wanted to talk about the process of recognition that I go through as an artist when I see something made by Ai because a lot of the time at first glance nothing seems wrong.

First thing that I notice is how after 2025 there something that is clearly supposed to be an exclamation point but it’s too small and incomplete. This immediately made me realize for sure that it’s Ai. Ai is usually bad at doing text and it would be pretty easy for a human to fix.

Then I see the rest of the inconsistencies. The n in new is disconnected. There is a stray line coming out of the h in happy. Snoopy’s hands: one has a different line weight and the other has a finger that’s way too small. The stray little lines on Snoopy’s mouth. Woodstock only having one eye brow. Then this part is debatable since it is clearly trying to replicate the style of the CGI Peanuts movie, but Snoopy’s eyes being different sizes bothers me. The ear which I didn’t even circle is probably trying to replicate the loosely colored in ears in the comic strip, but in the CGI version it’s fully colored in. The golden firework blending into the top of Snoopy’s hat. Woodstock’s hands. Woodstock’s feet. The blurriness of Snoopy’s foot that isn’t anywhere else. The lines on Snoopy’s foot which doesn’t reach the end. The blurriness at the top of Woodstock’s head.

As an artist in art school we are critiqued on every little detail of our work. These kinds of inconsistencies are not okay for professional artists to make so the idea that companies want to use Ai shows how little they cared about artists in the first place. Any company that uses Ai instead of hiring an artist is clearly is cheap and is making themselves look bad.

I know that Ai can look convincing and pretty at first glance, but I want people to look at artwork for more than a few seconds. With social media everything is so fast paced and we are conditioned to to want instant gratification, so Ai is a quick and easy way to make ‘content.’ But the things that generative Ai makes are low quality and infuriating to see as an artist. I would much rather see someone try to make art as a beginner than see a computer steal art from other people.

So when you share or like something take an extra second to see if it was made by a person because if a person didn’t even care enough to make it it’s not worth your time.

Any other artists feel free to point out anything that I missed.

Hi! First off- I love your work. Apart from that I had a question regarding The song 'Lose my breath' ft the zionist Charlie puth

Why did we need to boycott this song? So what if Charlie is a Zionist? We are supporting our boys. Not him.

-P.s- I'm not saying this in a rude way, I might come off as rude, but I swear it's a genuine question.

-☆🐼

just now israel attacked a refugee camp in rafah, the supposedly « safe » place in gaza, burning children, women and men alive. this came in a direct response to the icj’s ruling for israel to stop their rafah invasion. this is what zionism is. do you think it’s okay for us to give a platform to zionists, for us to welcome zionists in any capacity, shape or form, even if indirectly? it’s immoral to do so especially in the midst of an ONGOING genocide. this is why we are boycotting the song

Ok but sometimes the most infuriating political stance a person can have is point blank refusing to discuss social issues with you when you bring it up because they "don't want to get political". Don't open the tags unless you want to read a rant

[novadreii]

hold up. pause.

i couldn't get 15 minutes into the finale without crying. had to stop and write this. my heart SO goes out to marissa! i relate to her so hard, having been in a weirdly similar situation to her. was also with a two-faced performative leftist Nice Guy who looooooved that i'm a Strong Woman with intense energy in the beginning, and once we moved in together decided actually, i was too much. EERILY similar to ramses.

"that's what every guy feels. they love the first few months of dating me, cause the energy is so fucking great. like i get it, i've heard that before." i wanted to hug her so badly!!!! it's the most vile feeling on earth for someone to use the reasons they used to love you as the reasons they don't anymore.

meanwhile, marissa sees their difference in vibe/energy (ramses being the "calmer" one and marissa being the more intense one) as something to be celebrated and just worked around where consideration is needed. her love supersedes and she doesn't have a need to be in a relationship with someone who is exactly fucking like her.

the poor girl was so shooketh. she couldn't believe how suddenly he changed his mind, from one minute loving everything about her and wanting to get married to wanting to break up the next. god, i understand the whiplash from that shit. she is going to need therapppyyyyyyyy.

we as women need to stop thinking that men are just having a great time in a relationship with us if they haven't brought anything up!! they do not communicate the way we do. women being quiet = everything is fine. men being quiet = everything MIGHT be fine, but he could just as equally be deeply unhappy and plotting his escape/affair. they actually are sociopathic in that they can act like they love us to placate us while they find a way to fade out of the relationship. us women know that if we're done we can't even touch him anymore!

i'm so tired of seeing the pure love of women be fucking corrupted by user men. please understand that a man's emotional landscape may as well be an alien planet, they do not experience love the way we do at ALL. women love unconditionally, faithfully, like mothers. a man's love is conditional to the dopamine he gets from your presence. that's it. and because dopamine and therefore feelings fade in and out, you point blank cannot trust a man to stay by your side throughout all of your seasons of life.

maybe he's good for right now, sure, but don't depend on him being in the picture long term. imagine when you give birth and experience physical and emotional changes, or if you go through an illness, experience a personal loss, etc. most men will not hesitate to cut you loose the moment you don't make him feel good 24/7 anymore and need to lean on HIM. they don't want to be depended on, because dependence = expectations, and expectations = control = loss of freedom to a man. there is nothing more important to a man than the freedom to do whatever the fuck he pleases at all times.

please watch this show as a way to better understand how duplicitous men operate. i don't care if you don't watch reality tv bc you're better than that, neither do i, but this show is the exception.

every SINGLE man on the cast this season has displayed GIANT red flags from day 1 IF you know how to look. there isn't a single man on S7 who i would say is real husband material. whether it's being a liar, unfaithful, hiding things about their pasts, and being actual man children who have never had to lift a finger in their entire lives, it's clear this season that the casting of the men was meant to be a cautionary tale.

42,000 people. 42,000 people with full lives and memories and family and a culture that is being erased. 42,000 people. My mind can’t even comprehend that number. Innocents. Infants. That’s a larger number than people who live in my city.

42,000 people are dead. Israel is committing genocide. This is an ethnic cleansing. It’s not only been going on for a year but for A HUNDRED years.

Read “The Ethnic Cleansing of Palestine” by Ilan Pappe, an Israeli historian. Learn the history. Educate yourself.

Call your representatives. Advocate for a ceasefire. Free Palestine. 🇵🇸🇵🇸

"gender envy" you're pushing 30. Just say he's hot

I'm assuming these are from the same person, so I'm just grouping them together. I was going to ignore these asks, but this is harmful and I'm going to unpack it briefly.

People who are 27 or, as you put it, "Pushing 30" can experience gender envy. There's no age requirement or cut-off for that.

Jayden Revri is not the only man I feel this way about, nor is he the first man I've felt this way about. I've felt "Gender envy" numerous times over the years, as young as 7 or 8 years old (maybe younger, but I can't recall specific instances before 7). Trust me, I was teased RELENTLESSLY for this sensation that I thought everyone felt, and I was chastised by "Well-meaning" adults who wanted me to be prettier, more feminine, more in line with the male gaze (and for many years, I listened even when it made me feel itchy and awful all over). All that to say - it's not your business what my relationship to my gender and sexuality is, but just to be abundantly fucking clear when I say Jayden gives me gender envy, I mean exactly that. I don't mean he's "hot." (He is handsome, of course he is - the whole fucking cast is gorgeous but that's not the point. If it was just that, I would say that! You'd have to be damn crazy to look at Jayden and think he's unattractive, but it isn't his "attractiveness" that causes me to feel gender envy. It's hard to explain if you don't experience it!!! But I'm very annoyed at you right now, anon!)

I find John Krasinski, Rahul Kohli, and Winston Duke hot, but I don't envy their physical appearance, wishing I could just wake up and look like them tomorrow, feeling like I'd be happier if I did - I just think they're hot, straight-up kissable and all that. I understand the difference. Do you know what I'm trying to say here? Do you get it?

All that to say, good god PLEASE do not say this shit to other people. You don't know who is on the other side of these kinds of asks, you don't know their experiences or the unsafe, heteronormative, harmful situations they may have specifically been subjected to throughout their life. Unpack your own biases and bullshit before you hurt someone who actually cares what you have to say.

Oh, and fuck you. You sent this on anon, big bad authority on gender. At least say it with your whole chest on main.

if one more person asks me about college applications i’m going to burst into tears and rip their face off with my bare hands
