Fandom is so different now and it’s becoming un-fun with how quickly shit moves.
I just want to enjoy things. I don’t want to have to play a game of Artist-Race that seems to be afoot lately.
Ya’ll eat up fandoms, leave artists and writers bone dry and then move on so fucking quickly then fucking wonder where all the Good Fandom Stuff is.
Idk Maybe cherish some things for longer. Reblog stuff. Interact with people. Comment and share.
Fandom is Capitalism now and I’m not being nuanced.
this but it regressed me so im writing fanfic like a fuckin 16 yr old
Going to be a dick in this post but myself and a lot of writers have had enough.
So, I am going to go ahead delete a load of requests people have sent in because since I’ve done some requests, 90% of yous (who have sent me in a request) have actually never interacted with my work so why should I write something for you? Must have mug written on my blog.
Obviously I won’t delete anonymous ones because who knows but hang your heads if you’ve requested something from me and not once in the last two-three months reblogged any of my work.
“I love all your work” Okay, then reblog.
“Your writings so good” Okay, then reblog.
“Please can you write this, I love your fics” Okay, then REBLOG.
“I can’t believe you do this for free” REBLOG REBLOG
Am I being petty? Um, yes. Do I care? Nope.
I know I should write for enjoyment but I write because I like seeing people enjoying my work. Also, it’s brilliant motivation. To see my 8k Crosshair fic flop after people asked it to be done in one big part is sooooo boring and annoying to see. It’s a waste of energy that I sadly do not have anymore.
I love the fandom but a lot of you make it hard to enjoy when you do not support those who are trying to keep it alive.

SOUND THE ALARMS.............im trying another editing software... very scary. hoping for better color grading. and possibly another edit before i move. bc while i'm moving (yay new house!!) i'm basically gonna be on mini hiatus. but yeah.
ANYWAYS!! more exciting things. i'm officially opening up edit requests as a way to supplement my lack of drive to write fic nowadays. so PLEASE abuse my ask box for edits of your favorite blorbos. i got a couple ideas rollin around the ole brain rotisserie but i always like hearing what you guys think!!
and if this somehow reaches anyone outside of my followers, do stay awhile and peruse :3
i have a habit of watching tv when i draw (mainly video essays or documentaries), this time i was watching a miniseries on richard nixon.
and so naturally i think to myself "huh maybe i can draw some old dudes, help with character design choices!"

Star Wars is about hope. Star Wars is about love and forgiveness and family. Star Wars is also about cool laser swords and pew pew pew Put up the deflection shields! Use the Force! Boot up the hyperdrive! Imma hit you with a cardboard tube that I'm pretending is a lightsaber. Bonk! :D
Your gender is now the first randomized wikipedia article you get. No rerolls.
operation olive branch, the lilith fund, the american civil liberties union, and a THOUSAND more. people want to do good and have the capacity for good.
put your energy towards them instead of arguing with your uncle about how he should have empathy for other people. help people help people.
if you're feeling powerless right now—and god knows I am—here's a reminder you can donate to the National Network of Abortion Funds, the Trans Law Center, Gaza Soup Kitchen, the Palestine Children's Relief Fund, and hundreds of other charities that will work to mitigate the damage that has been and will continue to be inflicted
life continues. we still have the capacity to do good, important work. that matters
