So we all know that Tumblr is US-centric. But to what degree? (and can we skew the results of this poll by posting it at a time where they should be asleep?)
Reblog to increase sample size!
*sighs* this was so beautiful when the percentages were 20% : 80%...
Good morning to EDT and CDT, and to the early birds in the mountains

Hey (*꒪ヮ꒪*)...
So, uh... I was upset because I once mentioned about shipping these two, but all there is on that account is KaiMax... Don't get me wrong, I LOVE this ship, but I like to play with danger sometimes, and bring them together too.
There's no elaborate painting because honestly I was so focused on Bryan's line that I had trouble even drawing Kai. My resistance is really nil.
The thing about the illustration is that I just wanted a possessive pose, but my imagination - and incompetence - goes other ways every time. Then it just looks like Kai stole his beer for some stupid reason - like Bryan running out of his coffee, or disappearing with his face paint-, and it's not even a real fight. Bryan is being loud, Kai is indifferent, but don't miss an opportunity to have a little revenge.
A customer contacted our team with questions, and then finished their email with: "I am daunted by the complexities and unknowns." I haven't been able to stop thinking about it since.

"A cishet person must have made this, no queer person would ever portray queerness in this way."
"This artist must be white."
"No SA victim would ever handle the subject in this way."
"No woman would ever write women like this."
"This creator is obviously neurotypical. Everyone with autism/ADHD/depression understands-"
Nope.
People who make these blanket statements are very frequently proven wrong when the creator comes out as a member of that group. And even when they aren't proven wrong, even in cases where the creator isn't from the group in question, actual members of the group who don't fit whatever arbitrary criteria are being expressed will see these statements and feel excluded and erased.
Not everyone in your group is going to share your experiences. No single individual gets to personally decide what does or doesn't count as a "valid" expression of trauma or being part of a particular group, and creators are also not obligated to out themselves in order to "prove" their validity.
If something doesn't resonate with you, all that means is that it doesn't resonate with you. You don't have to like it. But you don't get to decide what it means to someone else.
