"Thanks for 14k feedback! We didn't listen!"

I knew that feedback poll was horseshit but congrats, @bsky.app! You isolated the audience that made you! ❣️🙏

I'll be deactivating before the 15th.

I think I'm just done with social media in general. I'm so tired of having to do this every 2 years.

How do I explain to offline people that my favorite Japanese mascot said "we can only be liberated from queer oppression if we are truly seen as human" and then started wielding fireworks like a rocket launcher on the side of a mountain without sounding like I've totally lost it?

Chiitan has a dream.
I hope that one day the term LGBT will become a thing of the past.
I will continue to spread my message until we live in a world where everyone can love freely and is free from persecution and discrimination.
Until then, let's all support each other🤍

May I remind everyone that there is currently NO cure for rabies.

May I also remind everyone there is absolutely NO scientific proof connecting ANY vaccine that we produce today with autism.

This is true regarding vaccination in both humans AND in dogs.

Vaccinate your pets please.
Worries about vaccination rates in dogs
As rabies seems to be spreading more in wildlife, veterinarians are especially worried about vaccine hesitancy spreading among pet owners, a dangerous trend that could lead to more dogs - and their owners
- becoming infected. A 2023 study published in the journal Vaccine found in nationally representative sample of Americans that nearly 40% believed canine vaccines were unsafe and 37% believed that vaccines could lead their dogs to develop cognitive issues, such as autism.

Drew Chouko, my beloved chaotic #gnosia OC. Might have to play again soon.
A purple haired woman with some glowing neon blue marks on her arm. She is cusping her face and looking at the camera. There are neon butterflies behind her with a dark, starry background. The style is somewhat realistic, but cartoonish.

Comic books are (and this isn’t hyperbole) the greatest story telling medium that has ever existed. The combination of text and images rendered with a human hand is the most direct path from one mind to another. All other medium pale in comparison.

Anyone have a particularly hot comic take?

You are very sweet. I'm not really on bsky anymore either, so I'll probably honestly forget. But seriously thank you.

Like yes, I get that my creations aren't godly. However, why does anyone HAVE to be perfect to get engagement?

You all need to start engaging with each other regardless of skill or you will all discourage each other from creating.
thelocalmuffin.bsky.social
This is why I have kept most of my creations to myself. I feel like I'm just screaming into the void. No one really seems to care when I post.

I was so excited that I finished something this month and barely anyone cared.

What's the point of posting when no one shows they at least enjoyed it?

I'll say it again, Art is communication.

"Create for yourself" really means "Create art that communicates who you are." And one sided communication feels terrible. Commenting on peoples art/creations can be scary, I get it. But COMMENT. COMMUNICATE. We want to hear it. I want to hear it.

And when the world didn't even ask for them, they showed up anyway. I drew a drayroa piece that took ages, so here you are.

I also have decided to stay active to post when I create something. I will be offline a lot more and don't intend on doom scrolling so I apologize for being out of the loop.

But seriously fuck this app.

Notes: AO3 will still be active and I'd actually like to still participate in artfight.
