What about the final version of the flag by the original creator?
Gilbert Baker added a 9th stripe shortly before his death, with the new stripe representing diversity. He added this stripe in reaction to the 2016 US election. It’s unfortunately not as well known as the 8 and 6 striped versions.
Here’s an image of him sewing together the 9 striped rainbow flag.
ive always had this hang up that i have to keep everything i want to turn into a commercial project super secret and professional and never make personal comics or doodles about them, so seeing how you've approached idwtbamg and how people respond to it really fills me with inspiration! maybe the line between silly little OC and real project doesnt have to be so distinct, huh.
definitely doesn't have to be that way at all~ until you sign with a studio and they (maybe) tell you that you can't do that for spoiler or marketing reasons, you're free!
weird question but I want to post more about my ocs on Tumblr, but I also want to turn their story into a proper comic one day once I'm skilled enough. Because of this I don't want to post too much information, since I want there to be some twists and surprises in the comic proper. How do you handle not revealing too much information for Idwtbamg, stuff that would be revealed in the hypothetical final show?
honestly i wouldn't worry about it much! i've talked about this a little bit before

i feel like people worry about this a lot which is fair but also when stuff like the manga -> anime pipeline exists, i think it's safe to assume that even though people might know a spoiler or what's going to happen, they'll still be excited just to see the product in a different way and care more about the execution.
but on my end, whenever i post art focusing on the cast, i keep it more to character interactions and small worldbuilding things that i think are interesting and fun for people to know without giving away the larger story. i've found solace in the fact that my audience on twitter/tumblr is a fraction of the people that go and watch the show! i've been super up front about Zira being Aika's love interest and that this is a yuri series (which could be considered a spoiler) but most users on youtube have absolutely no idea that that's the case hahaha
so truly, don't be afraid to spoil but if that's something you wanna keep close to your chest, just drawing the characters interacting in small vignettes is always a fun way to show the tone of your comic on top of familiarizing your audience with the characters.
I can't help but feel like the word "puritanism" is just this new buzzword people use to dismiss feminist critique and the oversexualization of women in fiction.
Glitch really said "How can we improve our relationship with our black fans ?" and released bonnets with Jax's face on them like " Oh yeah the niggas will definitely love these."
nah sorry Sam Reid is one of the most beautiful men in the world. It's a beautiful cast overall, but he's the most gorgeous one in it, and most people are going to feel that way. That's why he's playing Lestat.
to say that sam reid is the most attractive out of the entire iwtv cast let alone one of the most beautiful men in the world is one of the most offensive and blatant lies anyone has ever told me. i'm not even saying sam reid's ugly but you do need to get your eyes checked and maybe an exorcism too. your words mean nothing to me and your taste can't be trusted. i don't care if you're in the majority. the majority is wrongggggg
I'm going to be real with you, I won't call him ugly but he's definitely average. The charm and quality of his acting is what's carrying the portrayal. He's a regular looking white guy, otherwise.
On a staff with Jacob Anderson and Assad Zaman and you're gonna say it's LESTAT that's the best looking?? aight. We see you, and we know what you are.
you guys need to be kinder to people you don’t find attractive. it’s getting ridiculous.
i’m fat, intersex, and disabled. so many times if i hung out with someone, their outfit gets complimented but not mine (even if i that person literally picked out my outfit so its not a matter of me just not having a good fashion taste). so many times have people treated other people around me kind but their attitude changes immediately if they have the misfortune to interact with me. i don’t do anything to warant this besides looking different. i get treated like i’m not there or not human. it sucks.
i know this affects more than just fat intersex disabled people. trans people, people of color, women in general, but especially those who have any of these traits or even just don’t wear makeup. dehumanization can be subtle. but we notice❤️
