I put some color on my inktober illustration from last year!

【 #art #oc 】

Colored version of the illustration from the quote post.
A ghostly female figure stands in from of a stormy see at night, holding a lantern as the light of a far away dark lighthouse.
The overall colorscheme is green and moody with a yellow light from the lantern and a few touches of bright pink highlights

The mornings are becoming shorter and colder with each passing day, but even during this time, the light of the Dawn Star still appears for a few brief moments in the mist.

Some thoughts on my a(ego)romantic experience for the #Aromantic Spectrum Awareness Week. Probably pretty messy because it's still very fresh for me but here we go! Sorry for any typos!
(PART 1/2)
#aspec

Page 1 of 5 of a digital comic titled "Thoughts on My A(ego)romantic Experience".

Intro: "I had established a while ago that I am very likely asexual, and I'd been pondering if I'm aromantic as well.

Panel 1: "But whenever I came across posts like "Signs you might be aromantic" the points were like" (3 bulletpoints on a laptop screen:) "You've never had a crush. You've never had romantic feelings or you don't understand romantic feelings."

Panel 2: (Anni pouting) "I've had a crush!"

Panel 3: (Inner Anni thinking) "Sure, that was like 15 + years ago... but still!"

Panel 4: (Anni spreading her arms) "I DO get romance, and I've thought of myself as a romantic person."

Panel 5: (Anni's hand pointing at her characters smooching) "Hell, I've done a vampire romance BL webcomic for almost 15 years!"

We can't go around attacking others in our own communities for not living up to rules we've invented in our own heads about what is the Truth. We can't punish each other for living and speaking and sharing, just because the other said something we didn't expect to hear
That's what religion does.

If people don’t communicate their needs, issues, or triggers and hide things from you only to unleash them like a deluge that’s toxic as hell. You deserve people around you that will have those hard conversations, communicate clearly, and foster actual community. True friends grow together.

If you're not an artist but you followed a nsfw artist over to bsky, use that feedback form to tell bsky that. Remind them they're opening a traffic and funding sinkhole that extends well beyond the "icky" creators they want to get rid of

No one is making you be a writer if you can’t do it and also don’t enjoy doing it. If you’re larping a job for clout I’d probably pick surgeon or Nobel prize winning diplomat, stealing valor for from isolated weirdos at their laptops is like shoplifting from the landfill.

As a porn artist I'm not asking the SFW crowd to be into the freaky shit we're onto. Everyone has boundaries. But an effort to understand this world would be appreciated. Talk to sex workers. ask them about their experiences in the industry. Work WITH us to create a safer internet.

You look at every culture that's ever existed and the running theme is everyone pretty much just wants to play/dance to music, make art, eat stewed meat wrapped in flat bread, and tell stories about the shapes we find in the stars. Somehow we turned that into wars and overtime and profit margins.

My problem with everything is that I know For A Fact that the purpose of life is frivolity. It is to fool around & pursue joy.

I will remind folks those images of Nazi book burnings aren't burning just any books. They're burning the library of Magnus Hirschfeld; a gay, Jewish doctor who created an institute dedicated to LGBTQ sex education and healthcare. And a man who pioneered gender affirming care surgeries.

Repensons à Duralex qui a été abandonnée par les riches et sauvée par ses salariés.

Donc, le discours « si les riches se barrent, l’économie coule et les usines ferment » c’est du pipeau. Il y a une autre solution que de subir ça.

-Boulet- @bouletcorp.bsky.social · 21d

Rappel que dire "les riches risquent de se barrer" revient à dire aux autres "vous ça va, on peut vous racketter vous êtes coincés ici."
