Something no one really talks about if you're not an artist is that art is often intimately connected to our self. Sometimes not being able to reach goals can take a toll.
Feminine Rage is in that funk state of mid-campaign and my mood is suffering for it, but I'm trying really hard to keep busy.

Just unlocked the last stretch goal on my new pin project, and the one I will be donating all profit from to an LGBTQ+ non profit!
Really excited about that, I hope people love it 💜

Launcheddddd!
My most controversial project to date, with 3 posts taken down--- IIIIIITS FEMININE RAGE!
Seriously though, if you're angry at the state of the world, take a look at the project.

Usually I feel like such a failure because I can't do human character art. People in my field always go "oh, yeah, if you want to sell books commission character art!" and they're wonderful and supportive of character artists. But then you make a pin design for them and they don't even tag you.Ever.

It happened, I've been really angry and channelled it into a new project and I'm launching it next week because I have no self control. Here we go again.

I had a parcel be sent from Portugal to the UK and get here in 1.5 days, *to my hands*. And then I try to send something inside the country and it takes 5-7 business days. Everything in here is fucked.

HUMAN artists, use only one piece to convince people to follow you!

I posted a new trans rights design yesterday, and it took *one hour* for it to be taken down. Anything feminist, pro human rights, LGBT, is getting hardcore targeted, and I'm so tired.

I desperately need people to stop trying to report my rainbow designs for no other reason than the fact they contain a rainbow.
I need #trekkies to understand that trek has always been proudly diverse and if you're watching #StarTrek and not getting that message, there is something very wrong.
