[OC] Just a bit of distance..

pls… i beg of you… reblog creations… or else there won’t be any more creations

[strwrs]

it makes me so sad to see so many creators talking in the tags about how they’re not creating as much because less and less people are interacting. this is proof that interaction is vital. this is proof that a lack of interaction leads to discouraged creators and leads to less creations. liking—and only liking—does not encourage creators.

and that’s because (1) the purpose of this website is to share things that bring us joy and (2) likes don’t share things or ensure something is seen by more people, not like they do on other sites. so, when so many people decide to only like a post and not share it (i.e. not reblog it), that tells the creator that those people didn’t think their hard work was worth sharing with others. that’s discouraging. 

and the creator isn’t the only one that gets something out of that. you get something, too. you get the joy of sharing something you like; that’s a meaningful experience for both you and for the creator. and that experience—that interaction—encourages the creator to create more, and so there’s more joy to be had for both you and the creator.

long story short, interaction (i.e., reblogging, which is interaction in its simplest form on this site) brings joy. it’s literally all about the joy, people. the joy in discovering and sharing and appreciating and marveling at creations. so please reblog—for everyone’s sake, including your own.

someone got really mad at me for being pro-pornography so i'd like to be annoying for a little longer:

-there are enormous problems with exploitation in the porn industry that harm and endanger the people within it, and that harm is carried out mostly against women and minorities

-this is Bad

-however the last century of passing laws against pornography hasn't actually helped any of those problems, and what sex workers tend to advocate for is the legitimization of their labor, so that they can then access the same protections and regulations that people in other industries can access

-for instance football players, miners, roofers, and warehouse workers are also exploited and endangered by their professions, have to work long hours, and can end up traumatized and disabled by unregulated and unsafe working conditions. these people are used up and thrown away by powerful bosses they can't individually challenge.

-however because these industries are not de facto illegal to participate in, when these people form unions and demand better working conditions, they can at least fight for their rights.

-sex workers, who engage in heavily stigmatized work that's also often illegal, have little recourse to demand better treatment.

-even if you don't like porn, and especially if you don't like porn, if you care about the women who are exploited in pornography, you need to advocate for the legality of pornography.

-the more illegal the porn industry is, the less safe and fair it is, and people will still be working in it, no matter how illegal it is.

-again: the porn industry should be regulated like any other industry and subject to laws guaranteeing fair compensation for labor, safe working conditions, and legal resources for workers suffering exploitation and abuse.

-once it is legal to do sex work, then women can bring charges against the men who have broken their contracts and abused them.

-and that is why i push back against posts saying that pornography is evil. it is an entertainment product, made by people, to meet an ongoing demand. criminalizing the consumption and production of it may slightly lessen the demand at the incredible cost of endangering everyone involved. and i think that is what's evil.

There is no scenario where all sex work is completely stopped. There just isn’t. Sex work is commonly referred to as “The Oldest Profession” because it IS. Sex work has been around for as long as people have exchanged goods and services in some way. As soon as we figured out how to draw pictures, almost immediately we began drawing erotic pictures meant to be erotic or funny or both. There are literally scraps of stone (known as ostrakon) from ancient Egypt with pictures of people doing sex acts, drawn not by master draughtsmen but by regular every day workers for the hell of it. Sometimes those pictures depict the rulers of the time in embarrassing situations. (I regret to inform you that RPF has ALSO been around since about 2 minutes after we invented famous people). We have always had porn and sex work. As long as we remain human, we will always have porn and sex work, whether it’s legal or not.

Sex is a very human need (not for everyone, not all the time, but the general population of humanity likes and wants sex. Those of us repulsed or indifferent to it are in fact a very small minority). And as long as there is a need, there will always be someone willing or desperate enough to fulfill that need in exchange for other goods or services. This is basic human nature. We cannot stop it. What we CAN do is make working conditions safer for those people who are providing the service, and reduce the need for people to do it out of desperation, leaving only people who actually enjoy it to provide the service. This means legal protections against people who abuse or break contracts with sex workers and pornographers. This means things like UBI to reduce homelessness and the need for survival sex work. This means admitting that just because YOU don’t want something doesn’t make it morally reprehensible nor does it make that thing go away.

Kill the 17th century Puritan in your head and start working toward labor rights for all kinds of work, including sex workers and pornographers.

THIS IS JIST A WIP!

Idk if ANYONE remember, but a year or two ago i started Mars as an OOAK (actually.. i started welcome to Mars idea while doing that doll)

Everything whent... not perfecly but it wad good untill thoses darn pants and shirt! When i did them, i forgot to take into consideration their body mod. I gave em top surgery so the shirt was way too large and the tail made the pants sit up too hight and the pants were just a nightmare. Since i stopped fashion school almost a decade ago my love for sewing soured so bad.

But last week i decided to FINALY ARE DO THE PANTS. I re did them all, on the photos its the pants when i finished most of it. I had to change the pattern by hand. Made the belt loop in a v shape so it sit lower, and added extra leight on it so i could add some velcro and make it close over the tail, and be adjustable.i also simply cut the shirt in two and made the front panel shorter.. i should re do it all since i only used black thread but .. im lazy haha i might do it some time. But its not a priority

Ive been working on small details and accessories. Im 98% done.. i just need to find shoues or make some? Idk how tho haha but im very proud of it! Its giving me more confidence to finaly start to work on my BJD, and on my other OOAK ive left on the side, barely touched.

Anyway, im happy, ill share photo of them when im done with the details.. and before the shoues.. i realy have no idea for them. I just know i want sneaker type or like converse? Something sporty, not high heel.. even if their feets are arched *cryes*

[starlightpngs]

An other id love to finish some day TuT

I just love them a LOT! i have something for the kind of situationship where they are desperate, horny, and so much into each other... but will never admit it. Haha
