What I love about transformative fandom—fanfiction, fanart, and even most cosplay—is that it's simply play. Play is how humans learn, it's also how we discover, and it's how we make friends.

Last year, some bogus person made the claim that fanfiction actively makes you worse at writing. This is loudly unproven. Furthermore, when you see arguments that denounce accessible, uncritical, and unacademic forms of artmaking, sirens should start blaring in your head.

Yuri on Ice was such a fever dream. Everyone was in denial over the 2016 election and hyperfocusing on this anime, and Trump was on TV like "Hilary's people—all they have is Yuri on Ice now. Which isn't even my favorite anime. It's very sad. But I will make better anime soon."

Every comics student should know: 1. Loans are real + you don't necessarily need an art degree to make comics. 2. The realistic demands of the book market. 3. Nothing can stop you from self-publishing + sharing comics within your own community. Art doesn't have to be a career.
