Extra-Terrestrial Breakdown ~ Remake A remake of the following works of mine: Cephalopod Fraud (5/19/2022) Isle Isleenar (8/26/2017) and Inflammable Flambe (9/4/2018) Extra-Terrestrial Terror (3/20/2017), Continental Breakdown (7/20/2021) and Headlight Heights (7/21/2021)

“But I’ve never done anything wrong! I’ve never been the asshole! Right…?” Probably; likely without even realizing it, and no matter how we pretend otherwise. Whether it’s not foreseeing consequences due to inexperience or even taking part in society, no one gets through life without causing harm.

Doesn’t mean we shouldn’t always try to be our best selves, else we risk becoming complacent and getting worse. It just pays to recognize our common humanity and our innate capability for causing harm, one way or another. What always matters most is how we move forward if and when we do.

Ethical art is art that treats everyone involved in the process (from materials to production to creative labor) fairly and with respect—not art that adheres to a specific set of content guidelines. Don't confuse genre trappings or marketing buzzwords with the real obligations we have to each other.

#art Alongside those oil paintings, I have been working on designing fursonas for myself as well as making PNGTubers for all of them over the past month. I am not this fat in real life nor do I have huge boobs, I just gave my sonas exaggerated cartoon proportions.

#art VoidCo Tango (Reupload with improved rendering and shadows) I made this drawing for MikePanoots' stream. The Harmoneel design and the outfits are inspired by his character designs for the Stream Mascot and "Panoots-Tan" Girls.

Void Kong, Grumpy Kong and Poppy Kong standing on top of a Panoots version of The Great Harmoneel from Donkey Kong Bananza. The kongs are all wearing the outfits that Mike's "Panoots-Tan" Girls wore; with Void wearing the Pink Girl's clothes, Grumpy with the Blue girl's clothes and Poppy with the Green one's.

Part of the challenge sometimes it IS true, but even when it is, *that's not the point*. Very rarely does someones harm intersect with their actual work in a meaningful way. It's more noble to reject something you love because someone sucks than to insist they were always bad.

one thing that would be cool, when prominent creators turn out to be terrible people, would be if we didn't have to go through this performative dance of insisting that their work was never good in the first place.

Gonna be honest, so is becoming any form of artist that aspires to become commercially supported. A YouTuber, Streamer, Musician, it’s all expensive & takes an insane amount of time; you risk literally no one ever noticing. I always warn people about this. Any success took us 11 years to get!
