Hi, I'm Sierra! I am an artist who focuses on positivity and self-healing. My art is under the tag #my art. If you just want to see my art exclusively (please don't, there's some ugly stuff there), you can head over to my sideblog quirkysierra-art.

Help Us Plant 20 Million Trees - Join #TeamTrees

The official site of #TeamTrees. One dollar plants a tree...

They’re only about 1.2 million away, and a couple of weeks ago they were 4 million away. There’s a good chance that with a bit of noise made about this, they could rally for that home stretch. This would be a good time to tell your family, friends, co-workers about the project, as there are many people interested in donating to charities at this time of the year. Once you choose a donation amount, you can also select that it is a gift for someone else, if you’re interested in gift ideas.

If nothing else, please help pass on the news here!

Art Theft Alert

a user by the name of @lostnbetween is reposting art straight from tumblr art pages (and other sources perhaps) without credit. The art they are reposting revolves around gothic/dark/horror/pop surreal themes, so if you create this type of content, please be on the lookout. I have already directly alerted one of the artists whose work I have recognized.

As for the user/account I am creating this post about, or anyone who is doing something similiar, if you happen to stumble onto these words, hear me out - it's all fine and well to enjoy a genre of art and want to spread your enjoyment of it, but not taking the simple 3 minutes of time to credit those you take content from is both shockingly lazy and hurtful, especially considering many of these artists create and share in the first place to support themselves, whether financially or even as a way of therapy. This shit is hurtful. It may seem sufficient to you that at least there is some type of signature in soooome of the work you've reposted, but for an alarming deal of what I've seen, there is no sufficient identification given and that is undeniably an issue. It's mindlessly half-assed. While I scrolled down your blog, I found many drawings that I loved and it pissed me off tremendously that I had no easy way of finding out what lovely mind created them. There is a thoughtful, kind art blog who I've seen take the time to RB and add credit (thank you) to one of your posts but I acknowledge that not everyone will do that and it is likely that by now many pieces of hard work have gone uncredited. I can see that your blog already has a bit of traction, and I want to make you aware that if you truly love this art as you claim to, you will respect those who brought it into existence without question. You will take those extra 3 minutes rather than downloading, cropping and uploading, and seeing how much traction and popularity you get.

Please respect artists and the time & effort we put into the content that is shared to everyone. It is a piece of us, something special, and the disrespect and laziness of reposting is never a good reflection of your character. If you have enough time to crop an artist's signature out of the image, you have enough time to fucking credit. No excuses. There is no way you can whine and wiggle a way around that, and I won't be interested or tolerant in hearing any attempts. End of story.

Hey! With new pokemon stuff making rounds, be sure to avoid art made by glitchedpuppet/purplekecleon because they’ve decided to rear their ugly mug with swsh just coming out. Their callout here covers just about everything you need to know, but to make things easy, they’re a pedophile and a zoophile+is into incest, and has drawn multiple depictions of bestiality+pokephilia, and that’s just a brief description of what they’ve done.  Likewise, it’d be best to avoid @ eevee on twitter, who’s glip’s wife and supports all of the same bullshitery.

When we say that the United States is joining Syria and Nicaragua by not participating in the Paris agreement, I think it’s not fair to leave it at that, because neither of them refused to sign for reasons anything like the selfish ones of the United States.

Syria was under sanctions making it complicated to even attend, and on top of that were embroiled in intense civil warfare and not in a great position to make a commitment like that. They didn't​ disagree with it, but were never involved with the deal in the first place.

Nicaragua actually felt that the Paris agreement was not strict enough, arguing that they didn’t want to be complicit in a voluntary effort that didn’t properly allocate the responsibility to large countries for being the ones who poisoned the environment in the first place, nor impose a punishment on anyone failing to comply with the standards. Nicaragua is one of the countries that’s most affected by climate change but least responsible, and they felt that wasn’t fairly reflected in the accord.

The United States is the ONLY country that has rejected the Paris accord because of the belief that our environment is less important than our profit. Even oppressive regimes and the poorest nations in the world are smarter than that, or at least know when to keep their mouths shut and play along. The USA is not really in the league of Syria or Nicaragua, but alone in the refusal to cooperate out of pure greed.
