it's interesting watching people run to the cara app in the wake of meta/IG's AI foolishness because i dont know if most people actually put in effort to think about what app is truly best for their needs as an artist. like cara is more like artstation to me; it's not for every artist, tbh.
if you have them i am all ears! i didnt wanna be a TOTAL HATER ON MAIN so i thought sharing some faves of mine would be nice, but i'm also always open to people recommending things to me!
another WT entry but warily ever after by thekwandry is a fun one if you like horror/slashers and slice of life! fantastic inkwork and tbh another example of marriage goals though personally i like people less, er, spidery and murderous. to each his own though!

krazy noodle masscare by lutzbug is also really fun. the art drew me in bc ive really never seen anything that scratches that obscure-90s-cartoon-itch like this, but the story itself keeps me hooked! plus i think dempsey and rhodes are marriage goals lol

rigsby, wi by se case is another incredible one - i have followed SE's work since cheap thrills and honestly SE is one of my top tier inspirations for sequential art/storytelling. such a good comic, a total must-read if u ask me.

its been a hot minute so i rilly need to catch up but jackson's diary by paola batalla is another excellent one. im typically not into WT these days bc nobody utilizes vertical scroll well, but paola got this shit on lock!

The year is 1989, and Jackson is starting his senior year at a brand new school. Even though he's back in his hometown with his new family, he can't seem to shake this ominous and uneasy feeling invad...

ok time to talk about comics i actually love. please go read these they are supoib
first is the red muscle by rudy mora, its SO freaking cute. idk what it is about rudy's art but scarlet and edgar are ultimate OTP material. it also just started updating again recently!!

tapas.iobetween that and all the slurs im just so................. ๐ซฃ
๐ญ i read the part where hughie finds out that starlight was sexually coerced into joining the seven and hes screaming at her like YOU WHORE and im like ouwouhh THIS IS NOT AGING WELL AT ALL............
also billy butcher is constantly telling his dog to go rape things LMFAO they were wise to leave that out of the show, that is NOT the kind of edgy 00s humor that actually ages well (which is already very rare in and of itself)
reading the boys makes me realize why i didnt really get into comics as a whole until i got into manga + webcomics. OMG, so many webcomics ive loved and lost bc places like smackjeeves went down but THOSE were the comics that got me into comics. webtoons do your worst but youll never take it from me
i dont know if i fully buy that tbh, there's a lot in it that just feels like downright nasty. like there's a super woman who gets choked to death with a belt by billy butcher, and in one panel, her corpse has an exposed nipple and it's obviously reffed off porn. that just seems unnecessary lol
reading The Boys since i didnt really care for the show. i did NOT know it was going to be as horrifically homophobic, misogynistic and racist as it is. why did this get a tv show lmao even lore olympus deserves a show more than this
dont worry this isnt directed at anyone in particular and i appreciate you ๐ and its something where im pretty forgiving if someone just doesnt know - im a private person for a reason. but w pride month coming up a PSA felt a little pertinent haha
so just... please don't be so cavalier about it as a term. don't call me queer, don't call my art queer, don't act like it's something all of us are comfortable with. it's still a loaded, painful word even if stores like target use it.
i won't stop you from reclaiming it, but it's not my word.
pride month is coming up and i never, ever feel represented by its celebrations because it's all queer this, queer that, queer as in fuck you, etc.
the first person to teach me what love is was a woman, and all i can tell people is that we were best friends because of what queer means to me.
if you want to call me a coward, i don't care.
all im asking is that you please, PLEASE think of this next time you want to collectively refer to 'the queer community.'
not all of us live in portland or seattle okay? a lot of us live in places where this word is still, and will forever be, a slur. it's painful to see straight people talk about pride like it's mardi gras when i can never go to pride without feeling in danger.
im glad people can be out and proud and im happy for them and will always fight to make it something worth celebrating. i will never throw any of my siblings under the bus.
but it hurts me every june, so badly that a weapon is so normalized even cishet people use it as a generic term.
calling me queer makes me think of every time a man has joked about watching me and my ex have sex. it makes me think about how i do not tell anyone about my dating history. it makes me think of everyone who ever thought me saying "i love you" was equivalent to saying "im coming for your kids."
i came out of the closet. the first thing my mom said was "hide the dog." when i had a girlfriend, the one date we went on publicly, a woman pulled her child away from us and looked like she was going to puke.
im closeted again.
hope no one gives me shit for this, but please dont call all of us queer. for a lot of us this word represents rejection, disgust & death. many of us are closeted & will die closeted bc of the hate in this word. reclaim it for yourself by all means, but please dont call me queer. it just hurts.
does anyone else find following feeds to be more annoying than following tags? i swear i follow mostly art feeds and i will still see someone's pasta dish or someone's fucking crack and balls or some other explicitly not-art-thing in there. what algo do feeds use to dictate and why is it so bad?
im such an insomniac that even meds off-label for sleep dont work on me (hydroxyzine, benadryl, amitriptyline) lmao ๐ฉ
say what you will of the hamilton musical but it was like a cornucopia of hot dudes. just wall to wall hot guys the entire time. i watched it when my dad had a disney+ sub for a while and all i thought was wow look at all these hot dudes. i think there was music at some point but idk about alladat
im an idiot because im like what if i made superheroes so i could practice my comicking chops and now i have the audacity to say OH FUCK I HAVE TO DRAW ACTION SCENES
esp when you consider how many people try to use twt to promote their businesses!! like how do you expect people to use the site to market themselves if you wont give them any way to do so lmao
i will admit: i don't know if this is fact or fiction. twt's algo seems to have evolved into some kind of fantastic boogeyman that posters refer to when their posts don't gain traction, but i don't know for certain if there's purposeful suppression on the backend (outside of prioritizing bluechecks)
OMG that too lmao it's all or nothing around here, like is art, name of the fandom piece, name of the character just not enough? the ironic part is i tagged on tumblr with tags i thought were most applicable without being spammy and never got any followers after 8 months. it was very surreal.
it's totally nuts, and people are so tag-shy bc everyone got trained from the twt algo to NOT tag things or be marked as spam (or something) so it's just constant bombardment. i love that people have fun but can you please have fun away from me (USER WAS BANNED FOR BEING A SCROOGE)
GOOD LUCK! remember to lift with ur legs, drink lots of water and also: takeout is your best friend right now lmao
the poor algorithm that gives me my weather forecasts is acting like it won't be 100F+ every day in july, august and september LOLLL poor baby. no we cookin now til november, sorry lil buddy

voltron. bbc sherlock. supernatural. glee. atla. atla:lok. even star trek and star wars lol like trust me there's hardly a fandom thing i havent blocked n bc ppl dont tag things, i cant avoid it. be nice and tag! please! idc if you're scared of the algorithm boogeyman silencing you, JUST TAG IT.
this happened to me with so many fandoms. OMG, when it was ofmd? i was basically in hell lmao especially bc i hatedddd ofmd when i watched it. i try not to be a hater on main but it's very difficult when i am getting subjugated to this shit constantly.
im glad ppl have fun in fandoms but given that im basically never into what's popular it honestly makes socmed a form of torture sometimes lmao. and i gave it a shot, didnt like it, blocked tags but some ppl just. dont. tag. TAG YOUR FANDOM STUFF PLEASE FOR GODS SAKE
not being in fandoms but being an artist is awful. i blocked dunmeshi, dungeonmeshi, delicious in dungeon, falin, marcille, laios, chilchuck, dungeonfood, every pairing tag i have come across and i am STILL SEEING POSTS and some people just wont tag! like i hate this now due to oversaturation alone!
my cat's first birthday is coming up in 2 weeks, which is very exciting as i adopted him from a shelter after fostering him while he recovered from an amputation due to being run over by a car. so to the car that tried to take him: NEENER NEENER HE'S ALIVE AND, UNFORTUNATELY, A GEMINI
shocked that qforce doesnt really have anything on rule34 about it. shocked further that my until dawn fan art i drew as a request on /y/ somehow survives on there

sorta wish we had maternity leave for everyone who doesnt give birth. one of my coworkers has been out for like 4 months and like, why can't i have job security to come back after 4 months of doing literally nothing at my job? vote for me and everyone gets 4 months off for maternity leave
LIKE AM I MISSING SOMETHING HERE? we even have the same asinine tiny word count and weird cultural behaviors. maybe if i wrote PUSSY IN BIO it would make people feel more at home?
missing the appeal of twt during its cultural zeitgeist means i also dont get why ppl cling to its corpse. like how are u really gonna say 'my reach is 1/4 of what my follower count is' and then also refuse to leave bc 'it's where my audience is'? what, ur audience of 50 bots + 170 dead accs??
back to work tomorrow and 5 days off is not enough lmao i cant believe americans have normalized never taking time off. i need like 3 WEEKS off. this culture sucks!!
