befriending artists bc u want free art or fame or something is OUT befriending artists bc u love their art and they're genuinely sweet people and tipping them when u buy their art is IN
my artist tip of the day is: PLEASE do not be 'on call' 24/7. if you wake up and see a dm at 2 am you do not have to (and shouldn't) answer it. almost no job expects that kind of dedication from you, and the stress of always being 'at work' can really grind on you.
forcing trans ppl to out themselves & live as their correct gender for years to "prove" theyre trans enough to receive transition-related medical care is violence.
Listen. I wish this wasn't the case, but if you say something like 'cancel culture bad' or 'let lgbt creators be weird ' you Have to clarify that u mean normal stuff and not freak shit or ppl will reblog the post with bad intentions and you know this and implicitly encourage it.
Hiiii! I'm running another batch of these if anyone would like some! Tryin' to scrape together a little extra money for taxes, so im running a lil 🌟sale🌟 as well! Take $10 off 1-4, and $5 off 5&6 if you grab em before Friday :D!
made a few more for my pals!! yall are welcome 2 use these w credit ! (also, im not gonna make more variations, but im uploading the transparent art + bg template to a dropbox folder in the next tweet, and ur welcome to add whatever bg u want!!)
Figured I'd put these up a bit early so I can have them done for folks before pride month if they'd like! Just DM me if you'd like one c: ! (more details in next tweet)
Some of the Webkinz commissions I've done recently! I'm still taking these if you're interested; read the information in the next tweet and then shoot me a DM :> !
Is anything inherently wrong w such statements? No. But they're red flags for ppl who love cp and other illegal immoral things and by not speaking out against these ppl you are condoning them and letting them use you as a mouthpiece for their twisted actions.
all trans ppl do not have to or may not want to transition, which is a personal choice for them and is obviously fine. but forcing someone who WANTS to medically transition to out themselves and likely suffer verbal & physical abuse to get medical care is evil.
🍎Just a pile of apples... nothing strange to see here!🍎Put up some stickers of my appletun design on my etsy! You can find the link in the tweet below! ⬇️

hey guys!! i found this lil three-legged stray cat outside this morning (ive named her chips). shes malnourished & i need to get food for her and take her to a vet for a checkup + care; if you have a few dollars to spare i'd greatly appreciate any donations ;w;! link in thread ⬇️
i see a lot of ppl worrying that clients will get mad if they take a bit to respond, but any client you actually want to work with will understand that you are an actual whole person, and not just an art machine that exists inside the computer
unless you're in an emergency situation when u need every penny immediately, its perfectly normal and healthy to take breaks - that doesn't just mean from drawing, it means from replying to emails as well!
u really cant have a meaningful conversation about mental health without addressing the societal framework we're all trapped in. u can't say stuff like 'let yourself take breaks' if taking a break means you can't put food on the table.

Ends Nov. 16! Gonna pick 4 winners for this :>!
psa that if ur new to artfight the site is usually nonfunctional for the first few days due to traffic, so if u want to start at once i'd suggest saving some characters offsite to draw. i'd be pleasantly surprised if they fix this issue this year but i wouldnt pin my hopes on it.
I've gotten caught up on comms again, so I'm opening for some more of these pride knife YCHs if anyone would like one! Just shoot me a DM if you're interested c:
please, base your activism on love. hate is strong, but it burns out & leaves you with nothing but bitter embers. it is not a firm foundation. yes, 'fuck t*rfs', but moreso, 'trans rights are human rights'. [1/2]
someone asked about these recently and reminded me how much I liked doing them, so i'm 0pening some sl0ts for 'em! Just let me know if you're interested💫!
🍎 Appletun buttons are here!! I've only got 23 of them and I'm not sure if I'll do a restock, so make sure to check out the listing in the tweet below if you're interested! 🍏
Been a while since I did something like this, so I figured I'd do one to thank yall for the support! Winners will be picked 9/25! To enter: Be following me, comment a (sfw or censored!!) ref, & RT!
'your art is valuable even if it doesnt get attention online' & 'social media interaction is directly correlated to how a lot of creatives make money' can, and often are, both true simultaneously
I'm Ray! I love to draw cute & colorful stuff, mostly furries and robots!

OKAY I went ahead and got this set up tonight :3 just rt this post + follow to enter! new followers welcome, idc. ends in a few days and i should have them done within a week of getting refs~
since its pride month, & since i had to spend $1300 on dr's apts and tests last month (that did not diagnose or treat what's wrong with me) & i had to dip into my top surgery savings, if u like what i make youre always welcome to drop a dollar or two in my kofi
did not expect this to get as much attention as it did, but while you're here check out this thread of ways you can help support the Navajo Nation during the current crisis
A thread of fundraisers that are helping the Navajo Nation during the COVID-19 pandemic, feel free to share & donate (if you are able to)
The Navajo Nation has the largest reservation & is the second largest tribe in the U.S. but yet are still without running water & electricity
@Idolomantises
feel like a good compromise would be having TWO(or more) whole nonbinary characters in a given franchise so one can be a cool monster and one can be a regular looking human person
Doing a quick raffle for one of these wiggle icons!

⚠️⚡Finally got around to making this idea a reality: biohazard and radioactive pride pins! For letting people know you're gay AND that you may be emitting unstable isotopes or are otherwise biologically hazardous (🔗 in thread!)
@_twilem
yep!!! like you need more nuance, lads, you cant apply the same praxis to 'said a slur when they were 15 and made amends' or 'actively creates and consumes cp to this day unapologetically'
i swear i make serious art as well but in the meantime... here are more memes YCHs >3c. these are perfect for discord emojis, telegram stickers, or anything else you might want to use emojis for!
i dont get ppl who say 'why am i blocked i never talked to this person before?' you fool. i block you so i never HAVE to talk to you, presumably bc i've seen you being a clown somewhere and i refuse to deal with that.
🥕Scorbunny circle buttons are up in my shop! These little friends measure 2.25 inches. Check the tweet below to grab one for yourself from my shop :) !🥕
god there really arent trans men in anything huh. like i know hypervisibility of trans women is a bad and separate issue but itd be nice to see myself in ANYTHING except like one artsy tragedy where the character only ever gets called a 'tomboy' and then dies
if you're creating a fantasy setting, i need you to consider why you're putting bigotry (homophobia, racism, whatever) into it. you're creating an entirely new world. does this stuff play some sort of role in the story? or are you including it just because it's familiar to you?
