Hey sorry to ask, but am I tripping or is some of your Redbubble stuff removed?

(Also can I be wheat anon? )

i did private my tma stuff on redbubble! i dont use twitter or many other social media so i was unaware that they are apparently vehemently against people selling fanart for tma, i was just naively thinking well if they had an issue with an art piece theyd ask me to take it down (& i 100% would, of course) but if its something theyr outspoken about then I cant in good conscience continue selling it, even if it was my main seller on there 😔

(you absolutely can🌾)

#once again being a grandpa thats bad at social media has come to bite me in the ass 😭😭#i saw many other people listing tma art for sale & just naively assumed that meant it wasnt something they really cared abt ya know?#talked with several people lately abt the ethics of selling fanart & this came up #in regards to mech fanart #i will leave it up for now since coming from a bandmember we have a tacit ‘we just look the other way’ sort of approval #but knowing that i was going against something they care about so strongly didnt sit right so 😔#RIP to my paycheck but you gotta put ur money where your mouth is #selling fanart is always such a grey area it’s complicated to navigate #asks #sorry if i articulated this poorly
