Commission boost

Hi all. Yesterday I had to make an emergency vet visit that ended with my axolotl being put down. I don't want to share details at the moment, but I loved her very much, and as difficult as it was, euthanizing her was the kindest thing I could do.

I'm trying to pay off the $1100 bill as quickly as I can, and I would greatly appreciate any commissions that come my way. I've discounted my commissions for the time being. If you can't afford it at the moment, that's ok, all I ask is that you share this post around.

[paper-mario-wiki]

do not forget the patron saint of these weeks that we celebrate ourselves proudly and openly in the streets

her name was Marsha P Johnson, and we have her to thank for so much.

remember, the first Pride was a riot, and she was one of the brave souls who endured it to help carve the path which so many of us walk today. she helped found several activist groups regarding LGBT safety and wellbeing. and she was absolutely radiant, too.

thank you, Marsha. we remember you.

Personal rant, feel free to skip

Currently having to listen to friends talk about dating apps and relationships and shit and I just get so pissed off these days whenever I have to think about it. I hate being ace while still wanting a relationship and having to constantly listen to how wonderful everyone’s dating life is and the bragging about how awesome their profiles are knowing full well I’m the only one who’s far from conventionally attractive and putting myself in that postion would only lead to harassment and disappointment and exacerbate my body dismorphia tenfold. And I’m sick of being told I’m a “catch” or whatever the fuck and that “I’ll find the right person someday,” I know it’s meant to be sweet and encouraging but I just can’t feel it when it always comes after cute stories about their own partners. It just feels like a slap in the face. I’m trying to hard to just be happy for my friends but I’m so tired of all of it and I go into a spiral any time the topic comes up. Like don’t sit there and act like I’m in the same position as the rest of you.

[eosofspades]

i didn't have "i'm broken" teenage asexual angst i had "i'm literally being the only reasonable one about this concept and the rest of you are behaving like fucking freaks" perception issues

I honestly failed to realize anyone in my entire school was in a relationship until a few months before graduation.

I know I haven't posted much art lately, but I've been working on a couple projects that I'm excited to share once I'm able. Still wanna share something though so here are some various wips and doodles from the past year.

[solrin]

We tried to warn you about the "adult content" bans. Now Kickstarter is starting that shit

[problematic-faves-appreciation]

"It must have serious value!"

Staight up sounds like obscenity law/Miller Test-type crap.

[asaflowerblossoms]

"Fetishized imagery intended to arouse" well it's a good thing oppressed and vulnerable communities are never fetishized.

[solrin]

I know many of you have already liked and reblogged this post, but I'm going to attach a couple of links for resources on how to contact payment processors and whatnot. Hopefully they can get spread around a bit. It includes how to contact the payment processors, scripts, and various links to other (at the time ongoing, these websites haven't been updated in about 8 months and 1 year respectively) petitions and forms that might be useful to you.

Protect Queer Creators and Sex Workers - Tell Payment Processors to STOP

TELL VISA, MASTERCARD, STRIPE, and PayPal to STOP

I'd also like to ask people to be willing to bring this conversation into spaces where things like "politics" aren't welcome and more forcefully draw attention to the ever growing issue of censorship. Some of you may only have those communities to draw on but we've long since run out of peaceful/polite/non-disruptive options.

Natural Black Hair Tutorial! Usually Black hair is excluded in the hair tutorials which I have seen so I have gone through it in depth because it’s really not enough to tell someone simply, “Black hair is really curly, draw it really curly.” 

The next part of Black Hair In Depth will feature styles and ideas for designing characters and I will release it around February. If you would like to see certain styles, please shoot me a message!

Why Tumblr Has Rolled Out ID Verification

UK legislation: Online Safety Act 2023

Brazil legislation: Digital Statute For Children And Adolescents

Apple App Store Age Verification

These are not tumblr specific policies. Tumblr is implementing age verification in response to legislative moves that were made months ago.

Tumblr is a failing social media site that has escaped death multiple times already; they do not have the social cachet to defy state regulatory agencies. We know they won't say no to Apple, either--the porn ban on tumblr was in response to Apple's crackdown on explicit content.

If you did not know this was happening, you were behind the curve. That is fine. You're caught up now. The next step is to link up with people in your country who are working to preserve privacy, to roll back these laws where they exist, and to prevent their passage where they do not. In the US the organization you want is Stop KOSA--in the EU you can start with Fight Chat Control.

Repealing ID verification and blocking chat control will help everyone, especially the most vulnerable. We can push this back, but we cannot get it done through the Feedback form. We have to get it done at the legislative level and lock it down so it cannot be forced upon us. I see lots of anger out there. Good. Put it to use.

[curlicuecal]

Folks if you go to the Stop Kosa website there's a *super quick* form that will figure out your legislators and auto send them an email from you. (There's a script, you don't have to figure out what to write.)

They'll also give ypu a phone number and a script if you're up to make a call.

every time someone realizes they dont have to pick between being a boy or a girl an angel gets its wings btw. and also extremely loud cheering can be heard in the distance from me specifically

[penumbralwoods]

and for all of yall that are still figuring it out or aren't getting the support you deserve:
