Me: Huh. I finished my art and I think it looks pretty decent. Hey, guys!

Friends: *finishing up their masterpieces that belong next to the Mona Lisa* Yes?

Me: ...Oh, uh, I was just wondering what y’all were thinking about? :)

Y’all put my art to shame 😂 But I gotta keep my chin up; I’ll get there some day!

A small comic about people who think artist is not a real job because "it's so easy", since I hear and see this assumption way too often, and almost always by people who have never touched a pencil before (duh..). Of course, if you're a hobbyist and indeed consider drawing a relaxing occupation as portrayed on the left, there's absolutely nothing wrong with that, only with the rather common (and stupid) misconception that art is nothing more than that : a mere hobby which anyone could do with their eyes closed. In a nutshell, this strip is meant for condescending people who love to bully artists by telling them mean and ignorant nonsense like "your job is my hobby", "you will end up poor and hungry and living on welfare like a parasite", "artists are useless to society" or "anybody can do that". I think every artist, professionals especially, has dealt with that kind of asshole more than once...

Also, just to avoid misconceptions, I absolutely do love art and certainly do not regret chosing to make it my career. But this doesn’t mean that an artist’s job is all fun and games 100% of the time -just like any other job.

No-Homo

Okay, so I was just laying on my bed looking at my new Oracle deck when this thought just popped in my head.

Now, we all know what no-homo means, and why people say it. And for those of you who are just sitting there like, “But Genna, I don’t know what it means? “ than I will explain it.

”No homo is a phrase used as slang at the end of a sentence to assert the statement spoken by the speaker hadno intentional homosexual implications. The phrase is also “added to a statement in order to rid [oneself] of a possible homosexual double-entendre. ” so in other words, according to the Urban Dictionary, “ It is a phrase that makes you straight NO MATTER WHAT you say or do.“

But let’s be honest here, the real reason behind the phrase was just so people wouldn’t get seriously shot down. *looks directly at the LGBTQ+ community* (Yes I’m looking at you guys. Don’t deny it we all know I’m right. It has even happened to me before.)

For example: say a person walks up to someone of the same sex as them ( no I am not going to say a specific gender for all those non-binary and transgenders out there) and that person says, “Hey,I think your really cute”, or “Hey, I really like you", or even, “Hey, do you want to go out to the movies with me sometime? “ And the other person says something like, “Sorry, I’m straight, ” or, “sorry I don’t like you like that.“ All you have to say is, “ What? Oh nonono, I didn’t mean it like that. I mean no-homo. Just friends.” Or something like that.

Anyway, I just had to rant a bout that.

(Disclaimers : I got those definitions off of Wikipedia and the Urban Dictionary)
