very real and i’d like to formally thank victor hugo for that
Wanna get good at the arts? You don't need to spend $$$$ on schooling you just need to find that one character you are obsessed with and want to make fanart/fanfic/merch of 1000 times. And then you will get good in no time :)
people using genAI because they "didn't go to art school, it's too late to learn" : I didn't go to art school, I went back to drawing at 27 and now, 7 years later, drawing is my job cause I worked my ass off learning & practising

the more time passes the more disastrous at social media i become. all seems like too much and some part of me just wants to escape to the woods or sth

me: why is everything a franchise these days? it’s tiring.
also me, after drawing almost any sketch: okay but what if it was…~a series~

Every writer whose work has been stolen should be allowed to visit the Meta offices and just take whetever they want. Office supplies, computers, chairs, people’s jackets and lunches, whatever. Give it.

its year 5 of getting hate messages about my Small Knight stories having a they/them protagonist. but its also year 5 of getting messages about how helpful it’s been for parents and kids to have a character to relate to. so. even one of the latter would outweigh 100 of the former imo.

any thoughts you have after 10 PM, you want to ignore. those are your night thoughts and they are whispered lies. as for your day thoughts, best to ignore those too

i think there’s no escape from my day job. the new website after some structural changes within the university doesn’t have a resignation form available.
all the forms are there, for students and teachers and staff, but not this one
