Tumblr (Here we go again)

(**TW for rape mention**)

Hey guys, hope you're all doing well! sorry for the absence, I've just been working through my remaining commissions the past few weeks (not as fast as I would like but, sometimes it takes me a while to get going again after a break)

I'm not feeling 100% at the moment with art or being online, a load of shit happened on tumblr (I won't go into it much) But basically, once again there's been a load of discourse between me and this group of people because I occasionally draw noncon (r*pe/nonconsensual material) (I know right, you post noncon on tumblr are you MAD)

And I'm sure there's a few people probably thinking "hey you draw rape what do you expect?" But is it really worth telling me to kill myself over a drawing, wishing I would "get raped" so I knew what it felt like. I've explained so many times how I know drawing noncon is problematic, but I only enjoy it in fictional works and I find it absolutely disgusting/deplorable in real life occurrences. I'm not really sure what else I can say. Plus, at the end of the day I'm not trying to change anyone's opinions on the subject or try and make them accept it, or god forbid, promote it, as they accuse me of doing. They can find it as disgusting as they want, just accept we have different opinions and move on. I just don't think it's worth all the drama/upset over some drawings.

But yeah, basically I'm just like, tired of being hated and told to kill myself etc. I'm not like super upset, just tired, it's draining, honestly I'm pretty fine with people having their own opinions about what I draw or just not liking me, it's just the constant negativity and hate and talking behind my back i've never been good with, my anxiety can't handle shit like that. There's constant posts being made, reposting my art to make fun of it, they've even started attacking me personally about my age and my art, and they have a discord literally just for taking the piss out of me. All this because they don't like something I draw, it's mad. So yeah basically I'm just too anxious to go on tumblr at the moment.

Anyway, this kinda got away from me but I just needed to vent a bit, I don't feel safe to do so on my blog anymore. Like I said, i'm sure there's mixed opinions on this, but is a drawing (Unless it's literally like, racist/sexist etc propaganda or child porn) ever worth trying to hurt someone over? but that's tumblr for you I guess.

All the people trying to cause shit with me are otherkin so that nullifies their opinion by 70000% to be honest

Enh I just find the best way to deal with it is ignoring it. I know that isn't super helpful! But it's just people being stupid on the internet.

It's just bullying with people justifying it.

Think of it this way, if the person ever watched an action movie, played a shooter game or hell, read any non-childrens book. You basically get enjoyment out of violence. Game of Thrones, mass murder, torture, genocide. Played games like Overwatch? Congrats, you literally tried pulling the trigger to kill someone. Did you like the new Star Wars movie? You liked AND paid money, watched genocide and mass extinction. Doesn't matter if you didn't like that part of the movie, you enjoyed it and paid for it. That is truth.

Call it what it is, bullying. Those sorts of people really need to be called out for being toxic, aggressive and harass people. I really hate that mindset gets away free so often.

Wow people feeling like they are entitled to tell you what to do. I would just ignore them cause they are just children that cant separate fantasy from reality. and if they hate it so much they can leave. I hope you get better after this cause i would tell them to fuck off

i dont see a problem with it being depicted in art, real rape is horrible and wrong, but art is art and its nothing like the real thing

It's just because they're anonymous so they feel like they can say whatever and not care. Just imagine it as literally some random person in the street you've never seen or spoken to yelling whatever comes to their head at you from a distance, and hiding.

We still like your art though <3

I'm sorry to hear that, but like others say, it's bullying, it's wrong, and looking at their methods it's obvious those people are just mean and stupid, using their supposed "good intentions" to do harm. I'm waiting for the shitstorm to happen to me since I began posting my kinky art in the internet, I draw almost exclusively NC so it's going to happen at one point or another. :/ It's ok if you don't feel comfortable posting on Tumblr for a while, you don't have to fight them or prove anything to anyone.
Your art is amazing, and anyone should be free to have their fantasies and draw whatever pleases them, and that's all. People can hate a subject or a drawing, sure, but trying to put pressure to erase what they don't like it wrong. Also, people who cannot debate politely over a subject are not worth listening. There is no discussion if you do not respect the people you talk to.
Maybe you should report them, it's harassment :(

Cheer up there King, don't let them get to ya. People, sometimes, simply hate because they feel inadequate or they don't have much in life themselves, and they'll go around, try to find something to occupy their mind and time. It's the sad truth but, that's just how it is with people. They're self-loathing and it consumes them. There's no reason to hate back or feel stressed about it, just ignore them. Don't show any response, try not to post journals, or anything like that, and they'll go away and find something new.

Honestly, I think they're just envious of you and looking for excuses, myself. You're pretty a pretty awesome person, Kingie. Hope ya feel better. Also, WordCaster exemplified a very valid point, so, y'know. They're just looking for reasons.

People like that can’t separate fantasy from reality. They are the problem, not you.

i personally feel uncomfortable drawing it, when i see it in artwork i just ignore it, its stupid to start a huge fight over a fictional image.

if its tf2 rape, isn't it technically canon anyway? there was a panel from the comics where Saxton says:

"Miss Puffins i'll be square with you, you work with exceptionally subnormal men. Defectives, drunks, sex criminals, war criminals."

so if they're butthurt over tf2 rape images, then they should be butt hurt at themselves for supporting a game with characters that are sex criminals XD
