Feel like this is one of those things allies should be up in arms about because it's not safe for trans people to be

The biggest response I've seen from full-time creators impacted by SubscribeStar's new rules: "If this is what the future holds, I have to stop doing certain adult content."

I cannot fault a single VA, artist, animator, VTuber, or so on for changing their content strategy. But it's such a loss

like why are you still here? do you still like my art even if it's not ultrakill? is it okay with you if i don't draw it anymore? you sure you won't mind?

i wanna apologize to my oomfs who followed me because of ultrakill cause i probably won't touch it anytime soon, same for those who followed for Gabriel stuff, cause now i can't draw it and that must be disappointing to everyone

i'm just sad it felt so abrupt, like once the womb incident happened it just never felt the same, and since things seem to have only soured further my views of the game it just doesn't make me happy anymore

still sad i'm notinto ultrakill anymore but like, if i don't feel joy while drawing anyone from that game then there's no point forcing it, it'd just make me feel worse about the game

by criminalizing sex work, society is effetively criminalizing the existence of trans people and women who couldn't assimilate to a world that put them in this situation in the first place

sex work is performed mostly by trans people and by cis women, who are often discriminated against within the usual job market (sexism, transphobia, etc), some eventually having no other choice but sex work

somehow realized while in the middle of a life drawing session (???) that, due to how society is structured, anti prostitution/anti sex work laws are not only inherently misogynistic but also transphobic

oh Saasa... i think you should rest...

SAASA ARE YOU OK

like come on, i'm already planning on working on autobio stuff and it's made WORSE because of my transness AND my depression ("we have enough depression/transition autobios"), if i also have to make it sellable to a wide audience i might as well slit my wrists and call it a day with my sanity

god "art business" videos are so soul sucking. "think about what your audience wants", "be your own product" it feels like they want me to sell my soul for money because apparently that's the only way to "grow a business or a following". fuck that.

my transition goals keep changing to normaler men, like atp i don't even know for sure who i wanna look like i just want long hair and a shadow of a beard

if you are curious, so far the birthday wishlist has a leather satchel bag, a few platinum preppys with converters and the entire akashiya sai pens color range on it, with maybe some art books to round things up.

turns out they were just all at the museum for the morning class, including the principal. good thing i waited and didn't leave at least

something something this is the real me something something this is what a realistic artist draws and this is what a realistic sketchbook looks like

you know what, fuck it, i'm probably going to post everything i draw, especially observation drawings and sketchbook pages/spreads. forcing myself to draw fanart for the sake of having "postable" things is doing me no good.

actively making a birthday wish list while waiting to get in the school cause apparently they're doing life drawing in there and the number one rule of life drawing is no entering in the middle of a session

FINAL STORE NEWS FOR NOW!

My @wechange.me store is live! This is a platform created by and for nsfw comics creators. My books here are the same price as Itch, but in times like these I want to support a platform actively advocating for porn (and you should too!)

what it feels like to be an nsfw artist sometimes

Re: contacting your reps: don't overthink your method too much. Just contact. Express your concerns. And do it often. Once a week, if you can.

We need action now. No hesitation because you're worried "what is best" or "how you sound" -- these are things you'll get better at doing so just ACT.

NSFW Artists being attacked on all fronts while the government actively protects pedos is fucking nuts and shouldn't be ignored.

there we go!

ZATO down!! it's time for a pfp change!

locking tf in and getting so good you can't not hire me to your project or something. becoming so good people see my gay art and have an immediate boner for these hot gay men. becoming so good people look at my art and go "this guy makes me wanna learn how to draw from scratch"

i wish i could only exist online through something like a neocities and some obscure discord servers you might see me hanging around in but nooooo gotta have presence everywhere cause it makes everything easier in terms of earning as an indendent creative. what the fuck ever

me to myself: "i could be doing so many great things rn" then get to them pussy, sit your fucking ass down and play those games and recover and go outside and draw the people outside and forget the internet exist and draw fanart for those games you like and improve at art and forget about socials

I never want to hear anyone say how much easier NSFW artists have it when it comes to making money ever again.
try it yourself.
No???
Then shut the fuck up.
