emmett. he/him. adult.

[emmettspace]

basics: emmett, he/him, adult. i'm a whump creator working on fifteen projects, collectively known as the Emmettverse.

stances: anti-censorship, anti-harassment, pro-paraphile, pro-consent, anti-abuse, NO-ACT. from the linked page about NO-ACT:

NO-ACT stands for "Non-Offending, Anti-Contact, Taboo" and is a movement for paraphiles who are against sexual contact with minors, theriform animals, and non-consenting people, but pro-kink and other means of safe sexual expression. The goal of this movement is for paraphilias to be destigmatized, alongside promoting abuse awareness and prevention, sexual education, and risk-aware sexual bodily autonomy.

these stances are in my pinned post because i am very vocal about them and incorporate them into my creative work. you can find paraphile advocacy posts tagged as #para ally.

i’m going to be really honest with you guys i think the tendency to read the absolute worst possible intentions into every action you don’t agree with is getting too automatic and it’s eating you from the inside out

[emmettspace]

i saw you say recently that you dont support artfight, and while i don’t participate in it , im also unaware of the controversy around it? Are you the right person to ask? 😅

someone on Discord asked me about it too recently so here u go! no controversy (as far as i'm aware), just my personal opinions.

to further clarify the "anti stuff" comment (bc i was tired and just used that word at the time): there is no such thing as a 'harmful' paraphilia and i'm sick and tired of people saying otherwise. people are allowed to make whatever rules they want for their event, but the specific phrasing of harmful paraphilias is paramisic. there are only harmful actions. an attraction cannot be harmful.

then you factor in the fact that they're getting donations to do this. to set completely arbitrary criteria for policing Fictional Content based on Personal Values and Opinions. and i'm not even just talking about the paramisic shit, there's shit like, not allowing non-sentient beings to count as characters, and from what i can tell you are STILL not allowed to trace 3D models. which is ridiculous considering tracing assets and 3D models is something professionals do.

"it's a valid art form, we just won't let you do it in our contest" the implication MOST likely being that they think artists with access to 3D models have an unfair advantage over those who don't, which is kind of bullshit. there's a lot more that goes into art than just tracing the model. but again, this is another good reason simply not to Judge Art.

the thing i said about the mods stealing donations was just sm i heard in a video once, so don't quote me on that, i can't find any credible source that isn't a drama page 🤷🏻‍♂️

for me personally, i don't support the idea of judging art, don't support the rules and their bigotry, and i don't love all the drama that inevitably comes with hosting a major event where everyone apparently gets to have their own DNI (lmao??? yes i read the "it can't be malicious!!" part. but get real). and yes, i get annoyed when my Youtube feed gets flooded with videos about AF despite me showing me no interest.

all of that being said, i'm genuinely glad that people DO enjoy it and many of my friends partake in it. i think it's great to have fun drawing other people's OCs and vice versa! and i can see past my own cynicism enough to see the lovely experiences and community that AF has given many creators -- that's not something that should be overlooked.

i just think, ideally, we could do that without the judging aspect. where it doesn't have to be Art fight. yes, obviously the whole "attacking" ppl is cute and fun, and some ppl love the competitive edge of being on teams. but if we're really doing it for the love of art and supporting other creators, does it really matter who wins? why not just have the winning team be randomly decided so we don't have to come up with a bunch of criteria to judge something as subjective and personal as someone's art?

idk, i have enough on my plate as is with MECHFIA, but maybe that'll be on my bucket list of community projects to do one day lol

i totally blew off commission work this week because with the triple whammy of Heat Smoke and Stress, my cluster headaches have been brutal. anxiety got so bad last night i had to take another Hydroxyzine but i'm hoping i won't be as exhausted today since it's my second time taking it. i just fear that this week won't be any different because we have more Shitty Air Quality, more Heat, and ultimately more Stress.

i'm gonna ask if we can increase my Topiramate dosage and see if that helps, since i'm only on 50 mg right now. but i apologize again to the ppl still waiting in my queue that it's taking so long.

this is one of the main reasons i just want to close commissions once i clear my queue...my headaches make it so fucking hard to work on them consistently :'(

I'm in a very testy mood today, so I'm going to say this:

If people took all the energy they spent into chasing down works they find impure for whatever reason (anti-shipping, 'wrong' kinks, possible AI use) and put that energy into commenting on works they enjoyed, not only would fandom be a better place, but I think they as individuals would actually feel better on a day-to-day basis.

And if that energy went into volunteering or working to better their immediate local community? What a wonderful world it would be.

i keep asking myself why i am cooking THIS much with MECHFIA in comparison to my other stories (not that they're bad!! but like!! this is fucking banger after banger) and i've decided it's because:

A. i'm writing for an animated medium, when my brain works in an animated medium. yeah no shit we're cooking, we literally just sit here and write down the episodes we're watching in our mind theater

B. doing away with the whole "traditional story format" for MECHFIA has actually done WONDERS. like seriously. in the past i would lose steam when i ran into obstacles like plot holes and timeline constraints and shit like that, but now i don't lose steam because THAT'S NOT AN ISSUE. i just do what i want! and the funny thing is, most of it actually does end up flowing together and making a decent amount of sense. a lot of moment my jaw drops and i go OOOOOOO WAIT THOSE CAN CONNECT AND LEAD TO THAT HAPPENING BECAUSE OF THAT

C. literally been cooking these blorbos in my brain for years. they've been marinating for so long. yes some of them are new but most of them i know very very well.

there are so many amazing talented writers out there holding back because they feel like they need their stories to make sense and i literally just got to a fight scene between Major Villain channeling the power of theoretical GOD and Major Protag and went "hey it'd be kinda funny if GOD gave them like a soulmate's curse where you take each other's damage/pain" and just. incorporated that. not even for like a single scene that's just part of the plot now and i'm already getting very fun ideas with it. JUST WRITE WHAT YOU WANT

for the record, i only found that post while trying to find more about disability related paraphilias for a character in MECHFIA i'm fleshing out, and there was a certain trans///ID suggested as a term. i think you can guess which one. so i will NOT be looking in that tag again!

[emmettspace]

content warning for screenshot of a RQ post promoting self-harm. turning off my "neutral tone" filter to respond to this one.

let's not pretend we exist in a fucking bubble.

this is just part of a post that not only advocates for various forms of self-harm, under the guise of "complete bodily autonomy", but offers to give advice to commit it. with the cheerful slapped on "but do it safely!" label, like someone happily yelling at someone to "jump safely!" from a fucking building.

i guarantee you, the family of the fourteen-year-old who just cut off their fucking leg is going to be harmed when they now have to learn how to take care of their child's permanent life choice, that they may soon come to regret themselves. no, being disabled is not a death sentence, but it objectively comes with more expenses and obstacles and stigma that disabled people ultimately deal with in an ableist world.

the friends of a twenty-eight-year-old who chose to blind themself are going to be harmed when they lie awake at night wondering what they could have done to prevent it. why didn't they see the warning signs? were they not present enough? should they have tried to get help sooner?

and those are best case scenarios, because we don't account for complications. we don't account for the "nonconsensual harm" it will do to the loved ones of someone who cuts a little too deep and doesn't make it. of someone who didn't want to die, but had their life cut short because instead of getting help for something they desperately wanted, they had dangerous shit like this on the internet framed as liberation.

you know what? call it bodily autonomy. sure. that's not inaccurate to say. but don't you dare fucking say it doesn't affect anyone else.

if you're going to "have fun", you do it knowing that other people in your life who care about you and your quality of life are going to be impacted, and maybe even more impacted than you.

[lazer-exe]

I'm gonna say it, I do think that even the laziest person imaginable should have a roof over their head, food in their stomach, and access to healthcare

[lazer-exe]

a lot of people are reblogging this saying that most "lazy" people are actually just disabled or that the concept of laziness itself is a product of our society's obsession with productivity. this is all true, but it is not my point.

even if someone WAS just lazy and simply didn't want to do anything but lie on the couch and watch tv, they should still have these things. it's irrelevant whether some people aren't actually lazy because everyone, including hypothetical lazy people, should have their basic needs met.

if we have the resources to do it, there is no defense of letting people die because they don't want to work, and much less because they can't.

I don't want lazy people to have basic necessities because they "actually" deserve them because they ARE working or CAN'T work. I want lazy people to have basic necessities because they are people, and we shouldn't leave them to die when we have the resources not to.
