Honestly forgot I had this.

#anyone out there #I swear I'm crying out into the void #seriously I'm a cool person #babe plz respond;-;

you, artist online. somebody has referenced you in conversation irl by your online handle and somebody else knew who you were talking about. somebody has kept up closely with your posts for a period of time like their morning paper. somebody found a music artist because of you, thinks of you when they hear them on the radio. somebody followed you years ago and remembers you randomly even though they can't find you. somebody has screenshotted and saved your posts and sent them in discord servers. somebody has made your drawings their lockscreen, added them to their favorites folder and looked at them when they're going through some shit, has sent them to their best friend and sparked conversation in private chats. your art in particular could be the source of a keen sense of nostalgia for someone. maybe they've even printed out your images using their home printer and taped them to their bedroom wall and they look at it every day and they never even told you. isn't that scary? isn't that awesome? remember this well.

submit to the mortifying ordeal of being known so that you may turn around and see the impact you leave and the light you cast on others.

OK we are getting so much union yaoi here and I'm so happy about it but I did want to give a very quick tldr of what the shorts featuring them are asking us to do.

First of all the shorts are made by jellybox an indie animation studio. Who you should go follow

Second the main hashtag related to them seems to be #staytooned especially for updates

However, there are others that they are recommending we post under to help spread the word.

#CancelledCartoons is being used to post about your favourite cartoons that were unjustly cancelled or removed from being able to be watched. There are a lot of these but the biggest name I knew was infinity train which was of course treated horrifically, though it looks like other instances like two close to my heart, the owl house and inside job are also very much free game.

#RIPCartoonNetwork is being used to talk about cartoon network shows that you wish were still around after mass lay offs and other terrible practices

#NoAI is reccommed for parents to talk about their kids' favourite tv shows to protest the idea of uncanny ai slop being fed to kids

#HumanArt is recommended for talking about your favourite animated shows to support having human workers making art and not ai.

Finally and most vitally, support and donate if you can to The Animation Guild.

I put this on twitter, so I guess I'll put it here as well! Today was the rally, and unfortunately I couldn't join as I live in another part of the states. HOWEVER, I WILL STILL YELL AND SCREAM TILL CORPORATE HEARS OUR PLEA. Let Artists have a fair wage, and let them keep their dream job!
