Friendly reminder that asexuals, bisexuals and trans people absolutely get to celebrate pride month just as much as anyone else. It’s LGBTQIA+, not LG. This ain’t a fuckin electronics company.

[terabyteaix]

THIS!!!!BLEASE!!!!!

To those in the comments going "asexuals have never faced oppression," I offer some personal experience and a metaphor.

You know how some people try to push alcohol on you when you refuse?

"it's only one drink!" they say, "it's the weekend, bro!" they say, "not even a little?" they ask. And the whole time you are repeatedly saying NO.

It's a similar thing with being ace.

"It's only natural!" "Someday your mind will change!" "You just haven't found the right person yet!" and the whole time I am telling them absolutely fucking not.

I have had those exact lines said to me, verbatim, on numerous occasions. From people I used to trust. From people I consider family.

And you say asexuals have never faced oppression?

What about asexual women, who are under the thumb of men in power who only see them as baby-making machines? What about asexual SA victims, who might shudder at the thought of sex due to trauma and yet are put into a system that is known to brush their trauma aside? What about asexuals who are constantly pressured by their family and SOCIETY AT LARGE to bear children?

Drop the infighting and oppression olympics. We're all feeling the same heat because some old fart's supposed sky daddy said no. This is literally what those in power want. Divided, we stand no chance against the machine designed to dehumanize and exterminate ALL of us.

While the artfight crit is high I should probably bring up a couple elephants in the room

I feel this rule just throws photographers under the bus big-time. Photography is another medium of art and as such deserves to be respected just as much as other forms of artwork. If you are expected to credit 2D and 3D artists for art you did not make, I think it stands to reason that you should be expected to credit photographers for pictures you did not take.

This isn't the only gripe I have with Artfight, since as it stands now with all the super-specific and strict-sounding rules it feels more like filing taxes or going to court than participating in what is ultimately a silly art trading game where the points don't really matter. I should not feel stressed over the thought I've broken a sub-guideline in the sea of rules and I'm gonna be executed by firing squad as a result whenever I post something on artfight.

Yes, I am aware that the rules have been like this for years. No, that does not change the fact that they seriously need to be trimmed down and simplified.

[terabyteaix]

reblog because they just came up with a feedback form (after how long???) and the Discourse erupted again.

Willfully spreading misinformation about artfight is wrong, yes. HOWEVER, telling a disgruntled person who's upset with artfight to "learn to read" is ableist. Calling them "just a whiny tiktok baby" is needlessly rude.

Saying "learn to read" or things similar to that is ableist because some people genuinely have struggles with reading (dyslexia, for example) and some people genuinely have trouble understanding things and are prone to misunderstanding (autism, for example).

Ableism is NOT just abject, knowing malice and just like homophobia, transphobia, and racism, can also be spread through ignorance, willful or not.

People have a right to be upset, just like arguments have a right to be challenged. It's okay to politely inform, educate, or correct someone. Bullying, however, is never okay no matter how "annoying" or "mean" you think someone or something is.

We should be engaging in civil discussion here, not bullying each other.

It costs nothing to be nice, holy hell.

Also:

Aphantasia is NOT the only disability affected by the whole tracing debacle! What has truly broken me with the whole Dumpster Fire is how people with motor function disabilities and chronic pain have been utterly ignored.

Yes, some people with aphantasia do struggle without references (I don't have it though so I cannot speak for those that do have it) but at the same time those with dysgraphia or arthritis or tremors or carpal tunnel are also affected!

As someone with dysgraphia it's incredibly rough just screaming out that I and people like me are impacted too and everyone's making it about this other thing and I feel like the drowning kid in that one meme.

Due to all this, mainly with how hostile and dismissive the community around it is, I do not feel comfortable participating in Artfight this year. I do not feel comfortable with people going "learn to read" about a valid question, and I do not feel great having my words and experiences silenced by the very people "advocating for disabilities."

So much for this being an inclusive and beginner-friendly community, jesus christ.

(note: to the good eggs that have actually tried bringing these issues to light, you are not the problem and I do genuinely thank you.)

[terabyteaix]

Every time I think of adding tags of my OC names I get afraid that it's gonna be auto-suggested to me and I find out someone has Stolen my sillies (some unrelated character has my character's name too)
