I try to avoid talking about negative things on main. I like spreading positivity. But idk. I've gotten a few asks like that before and it was starting to get to me.
People are real quick to do a complete 180 and forgive Watcher after making the most basic backtracking statement they could’ve made
Like I know the standard for YouTube apologies is fucking 6 feet in the ground but like, it’s the most basic PR statement they could’ve given
Am I glad they apologized? Yes. Do I think they regret it? Yes. Do I think it was for the reasons we hope (aka caring about the fans)? No. Do I think they were sincere about their reasoning? No.
I think it comes back to why they were willing to make this decision in the first place: money
And to the parasocial people who are fighting for their lives to defend them, just remember that they were ready to drop you and whoever wasn’t willing to dish out $6 so they could travel around the world, continue living in one of the most expensive cities in the the country, and drive their Teslas around
I don’t really get posts that are like “gentle reminder! Don’t ship these characters together, it’s problematic,” anymore because like…ok, and people have to listen to you because…?
they’re fictional characters. They’re not real people. Someone shipping something that would problematic in real life is not that big of deal because it’s not of real life people.
shipping has been described as just essentially playing with dolls. Would you say “you shouldn’t play with those dolls in that way, it’s problematic?” No? Same thing applies with fictional characters.
Ain’t no way some idiot is trying to tell me I should draw Adam with Lucifer’s body type cause he’d be “more healthy looking”
I can’t with these fatphobic people. If you don’t accept the fact that Adam is canonically heavyweight, then leave! You ain’t welcomed anywhere in my space
Also trying to use the excuse “well I’m fat too” doesn’t change a thing! Contrary to what ya think, you can still be fatphobic regardless of your own weight!
Every time I see ATP in biology, I just think of the Ash Twin Project. I feel like that Isn’t a coincident that the Ash Twin Project and ATP are both a source of energy and storage. Like, no way that was an accident
I don’t post art very often, and my following isn’t very big, but despite this I’ve gotten a few comments regarding the weight (?) of a few characters, and that I’m promoting obesity and fatness. This very strange, I did not want people to think I would be drawing exclusively skinny characters, thought this was clear with my first post…
I will make them fatter. <— fat promotion, let’s get this out of the way. My art my rules.
Also: AI artists + Transphobes aren’t welcome… you will get blocked… what makes you think I would like compliments from an AI artists… they mean nothing to me…. I crush you beneath my thumb…
