An Open Letter to the NSFW Arts Community

It's pretty bad that this is the second time in a year I've had to write an "open letter" like this, but hopefully it's the last one.

I was going to go further and post comparisons of all the hypocrisy out there but I'm going to go back to making porn.

An Open Letter to the NSFW Arts Community:

Love Dolores & Stella, and the isekai idea 👌 Imagine a miniboss monster that is one of those metal butterfly hangings? Or a fake stone frog with the "hide your key" compartment? 👏

YOU ARE AN ARTIST WITH FREE WILL. YOU CAN DRAW YOUR FAVORITE THINGS. YOU ARE AN ARTIST WITH FREE WILL. YOU CAN DRAW BAD AND ITS OK. YOU ARE AN ARTIST WITH FREE WILL. YOU CAN TRY DIFFERENT MEDIUMS. YOU ARE AN ARTIST WITH FREE WILL. YOU CAN DRAW YOUR FAVES FUCKING NASTY. YOU ARE AN ARTIST WITH FREE WI

A 1944 map by geologist Harold Fisk charts a 40-mile stretch of the Mississippi River from Friars Point to Gunnison, Mississippi. Fisk used aerial photos and maps to estimate the past and then-present channels.

Rivers are living beings.

Sketchbook spread showing 7 sketches of two different cockatiels in blue pencil. Sketches show the profile and rear portrait of the birds loosely drawn across two pages. One cockatiel showing it's crown plumage swoop has a warm orange-yellow background in highlighter behind it to accentuate the shape.

Bird sketches from life 🦜 hard to capture when the birds are acting coy...

Everyone who tried to draw around me and started drawing LOVED it at the beginning because of their QUICK IMPROVEMENT. Then quit when they hit The Wall™️.

But it's when you hit The Wall™️ that you NEED to push through with practice!! And you gotta do it for yourself, because it's ALWAYS worth it! 😤

Wow I should have gotten at least a nomination for a nobel peace prize for this post

Looks interesting, I am not in the beta but am on the list now. I am curious to see how it goes, too.

The quote too: “We had committed to wait for our American partners, but the reality is that they’re stuck. And we want to help give them the push that they need. Someone’s got to go first. [...] We’re also going to make decisions right now where British Columbia decides what’s best for us.”

I see folks posting about the need to use the proper language to express their outrage without slighting anyone and like, y’all are not wrong but also holy shit maybe notice that your eyebrows are on fire

as is always important to remember: the reason you feel so bad is the fascism.

everyone has a threshold. some people have very high tolerances for being online and knowing everything all the time but I cannot stress enough that when you reach that threshold, you gotta take time offline.

it's all just art. "porn" is just art that makes you horny, in precisely the way that "horror" is art that makes you scared and "metroidvania" is art that makes you write video essays

"But I hate ICE and support trans rights and etc etc" if you aid in the suppression of art, you are a fascist. One of the textbook markers of a fascist state is the suppression of art it deems "degenerate". If you have one empathetic cell left in your brain, you'll start digging into the history

It is, once again, backup day. Backup your stuff! Repost to remind a friend to also back up their stuff.

I've been getting back into comics while I wait for more info from my concept job, and I thought I'd make a post about something very important to me, which is COMIC PANEL VARIATION and HOW TO THINK ABOUT IT.

incredible how many buckaroos do not realize the universes constantly spilling off of them, all the time, every day. you are the most glorious, beautiful being across a thousand different worlds because every choice you make is a REALITY YOU JUST BUILT, and you can build them with love

A lot of this applies to online communities too, maybe doubly so for an MMO like FFXIV where there's a thriving social scene baked into the thing we're all ostensibly fans of. If you're looking to make connections in whatever spaces you're in (or want to be in), some of these suggestions might help!

i made a guide on how to write, draw, and print a doujinshi/fanzine/whatever you want to call it.

this is a crash course on literally everything i know about making doujinshi. it's over 40 pages long. i hope you like it.
