When you’re a fan and then get hit with this:
And then they top it all off with:
I’m not a fan of public shaming but these are all public and personally I prefer knowing if someone (creator, artist, musician, author, etc) is a terrible person behind their art, because I’d rather invest my time and support into artists whose art inspires creativity, community and positivity. This is sad to me but I’m choosing to not support inverto at all anymore and I’ve chosen to block them. Anyone who blatantly states that they don’t care about others’ safe spaces, and declare people ‘enemies’ over fictional characters (seriously, how old are we?) is not a presence that is welcome on my timeline and is not someone I’d like to support, and I don’t want to see their work at all.
Not telling y’all to unfollow or block (and won’t judge, because we shouldn’t be judging each other for ANYTHING in a fandom) but for those of you who likely also value knowing more about people they support, I thought I’d share.
For context I’ve loved this person’s work for SO long. Posted about their patreon to try to get people to support them too. I’ve even happily considered commissioning them and joining patreon. So it’s real sucky, but whatev. (I said I was gonna delete my support post and he reblogged it to milk my last bit of support lmfao)
Also here is his latest words to me. Cherry on top with a threat of his “power.” Give me a bloody break.
Like this is absolutely not healthy. At all. I don’t give a shit about what kind of power he thinks he has. What kind of low life threatens actual humans over fictional ships?
I’m not going anywhere, btw. 🍙 I will continue to write Rivamika, draw RivaMika, analyze Rivamika, take pics of Rivamika figures, spend on Rivamika merch, and support the shit out of the positive side of the Rivamika fandom. ✌🏽 I’m sorry for bringing some negativity here by engaging in this but I could not ignore. I’m too old for this shit and am not tolerating it — neither should any of us.
EDIT: the best part of it is that inverto himself reblogged the post where I screenshot his unhinged behavior, telling him he's a shit person behind his art, AND he leaves the "dung beetle jelly filled donut" comment -- for his many followers to see for themselves lmao
