in light of multiple recent events i should really just take american tradition away from all of you until everybody learns to not take advantage of how laid back i am. i am normally a very zen person but this has all made me extremely spiteful for the first time in years, and i find that very sad. i don’t want to be angry at anybody. i have very little rules and restrictions and somehow those are still broken. i let everybody do almost whatever they want with my work because i think its fun, and that’s still not enough for some people. things that would normally not bother me much (such as taking too much blatant inspiration) have begun to make me want to claw my eyes out due to the repeated disrespect.
this disturbing stalking thing might be the last nail in the coffin honestly. i’m just having trouble understanding why people seem to do this to me at such a statistically egregious level compared to other artists of my size. i barely post anymore or even draw in my free time because i dread what people are going to take from me next. this has gotten so bad that in the past year i almost always refuse to answer dms, follow anybody back, or reply to comments, and yet it’s gotten worse despite that. i’m at a loss.
