this is wild it did nawt occur to me that there are probably a bunch of arcane fans who don't know that in league of legends vi is like canonically a proponent of police brutality lmao
someone i care about deeply is struggling with this rn so i thought i might briefly summarize what i said to her in case it helps:
you don't have to create anything profound or genre-defining or even ""good"" in order to deserve to continue creating
Happy

I'm Lyrra, a mixed Black illustrator, and I'm vaguely saving up to move this summer ☺️ so if you appreciate my work, check out my ko-fi!
Much love!
ok this is kind of a gentle take but. there is a kneejerk urge to defend ur friend/artist you look up to when people call em out. but understand that that person is not infallible and untouchable. if they wrong ppl, those ppl should be allowed to hold that person accountable
Happy Juneteenth weekend! Today is my 🎉birthdaaaaay 🎉so i'm going to re-post some stuff I'm proud of! (even the not-done stuff, lol)
🌟ALSO I'm saving up to move in a couple months, so any help is ofc appreciated! Much love and happy Friday!

is the grossest example of this I’ve ever seen like why would you set yourselves up like this
It really warms my heart that this tweet is touching so many people. It is important that we remind ourselves of this constantly. You do not have to prove to anyone that you are somehow worthy of creating—you can just create!
🎉🎉🎉IT'S MY BIRTHDAY🎉🎉🎉 so i get to show off. that was the deal.
Also i'm saving up for moving expenses rn so any support is greatly appreciated! 🥰🥰🥰 i'm on ko-fi, vgen, and ptreon now too!
just before posting art: i have PEAKED as an artist and everyone MUST see!
immediately after posting: if even one person lays eyes on this, I will decompose,
I hope this sentiment is able to help this person close to me, too.
Wishing everyone a new year full of peace surrounding your creations, and wonder for all those things you have yet to create.
i threw together a very quick ""explanation"" of how i color black ppl's skin tones for a mutual--i thought I would post it on the off chance that it's helpful for some people i guess lol
