@ followers who are artists: are your parents and family artistic too? If so, do you think that made things much easier for you?

I ask because my parents are not artistic and neither is my sister, and even though they are amazingly supportive there are so many times I feel they don't Get It. We argue less now, but as a teen it was often. They occasionally get mad at me for things that I feel another artist would probably understand.

Ex: "why do you have to take your sketchbook everywhere", "why dont you talk to people instead of drawing alone", etc

I just wanna know if my assumption is correct or if artist parents are also like that.

I live with my grandparents (not artistic) and they rarely even acknowledge that I do art at all, other than buying me the occasional sketchbook or pencil/eraser set

People get on Rose's case for Spinel seemingly slipping her mind but like... clearly even Pearl forgot Spinel was a thing in the midst of all that was going on?

If things on Earth got so crazy that even Pearl forgot, an airhead like Rose had no chance of keeping track of her :p

What you said about being careful of what we boycott becuase it can affect artists is true, but at the same time we can't really give money to Disney for doing bad things like charging extra for a movie uploaded to a platform for which we're already paying for. I think it's a matter of finding a balance. We should be careful when boycotting but we can't allow them to do anything they want either. We have to show them somehow that what they're doing is not okay.

Sure I understand that this new streaming method of release is new and everyone is still learning to navigate it. You have every right to think it is too expensive.

I just ask people to be mindful because, like, when you boycott something you do not control how that will be read. Disney does not know WHY a movie flopped just that it did.

So, like, if Raya flops the executives can come to all sorts of wrong conclusions: it flopped because it had an asian lead, it flopped because it is an original story and not a reboot, it flopped because the epic and more action oriented tone is not what audiences want etc...

And either way, it does affect the artists. Not because anyone is evil, but simply because without profit there is no reason for anyone to invest in those movies.

Listen, I get it that we hate big corporations and all that. But some of the arguments people make against Disney are downright silly sometimes. Like, I legit see people saying "it is okay to pirate Disney movies cause the artists who made it have already been paid"

Like... my dudes... the people who worked on a movie need it to do well even if they have already been paid. Because the budget for NEXT project they work on will largelly depend on that.

When Frozen was a mega hit, not only were the animators given bonuses, the budget increased for the next projects so they got paid better. Likewise, if several movies like Raya start flopping, eventually they will obviously allow less money to be put into them. This is logical. Thus, less money for the artists and filmmakers.

This should be obvious, so just be mindful of that if you plan on boycotting or pirating anything.

Disney’s ‘experiment.’

Please don’t pay the extra 30 dollars to watch Raya and the Last Dragon on top of the subscription fee you are already paying. Do not normalize this. There is no reason you should pay that much to watch a movie in your own home, a few months earlier than everyone else. If you buy into this, they will keep doing it. They are calling it an experiment for a reason.

I have had this scribble on my computer for a few months now and just remembered to post it. It does, of course, require a bit more work but the lovely vocals were provided by @teenageukulelescreamo. 

Hopefully I’ll finish these later. 

Enjoy the dread :D

I've replayed this so many times it isn't even funny

[palezma]

I like to think that while Rose kissed many people, hand kisses were always almost exclusivelly reverved for Pearl :3

[gerpbutmakeitsureposts]

Yes.

Some SU memes for y'all

Back after “Single Pale Rose” aired, people finally realized why Pearl didn’t like shape-shifting, and immediately started coming up with angsty, dramatic scenarios of what would make Pearl decide to shape-shift again (saving Steven or Greg, etc.) But in the end, the thing that finally made her move past her shape-shifting trauma? Wanting to kick Steven’s ass at tag. I think that’s beautiful.

connie is a lesbian because she trained under pearl, the ultimate lesbian. i understand that people may have been confused by the series but it's actually very clear if you're paying attention. see, connie has a sword, and as we know from the noelle stevenson lore all lesbians carry swords. if a non-lesbian touches a sword they WILL die, which is something many people have forgotten in recent years. i saw some people say that steven is gay and needs a twink boyfriend but actually he needs to die

correct.

Steven dies, see above
