It is genuinely bizarre that we’ve become acclimatized to right wingers throwing a tantrum every time a black person (particularly a black woman) is cast in something, but are also supposed to pretend that this is not racism but related to some other substantive concern.

I hope those load bearing followers know how much they mean to artists. Regulars, esp regular commenters that engage your work and story do not go without notice and are to be cherished. It's esp why I try to reply to let them know! (and why I wish I could keep track of any I've missed replying to )

Can’t stress enough how much I was told “do NOT give out your full name, do NOT give out any ID or home address, do NOT give out ANYTHING that could potentially lead to an identity leakage or doxxing” and now 12 years later the govs of multiple countries are like “pleaaaase give us ur ss number-

Man. All I want from this life is to make stuff. For my friends to be able to make stuff. For us all to live comfortably & not stress or worry about the world ending.

they keep letting people go on record and say "don't worry everyone, we only replaced our concept artists with ai" as if the concept artists aren't the entire skeleton of the thing. you took the bones out, man. look at it flippin and floppin around. fuck off
