You are responsible for curating your own online experience.
If something upsets you, makes you angry or queasy or triggers you, stop reading/looking at it. Avoid things that might make you feel that way.
Learn to use the Sort and Filter function on AO3, especially the Exclude tools.
On social media, block and mute accounts / tags / words when necessary.
If you hated something, you don’t need to tell that to the creator or start pointing fingers at them publicly.
The Back button is free. Use it.
Addendum:
Yes, for this to work, creators need to tag their works accordingly, so that people know what sort of content they are about to engage with and can nope out if necessary.
I will probably make another PSA about the importance of proper tagging later.
Ship And Let Ship
or SALS
You are allowed to ship whatever you want.
Everyone else is also allowed to ship whatever they want.
You are entitled to dislike or even hate a ship. If you want to do this online, in public, don’t use the ship tags for hate posts.
If you see someone posting about a ship they like and you don’t, there is no need for you to start arguing with them in their replies / comments / QRTs / reblogs. Don’t throw your hate in their face.
Do not harass fan creators or fans for shipping something you disapprove.
All of this also applies to liking / disliking an individual character.
Addendum:
”I agree with this, except when…”
No, then you are NOT agreeing with this.
Let me make this VERY clear. There are NO exceptions. None.
You don’t EVER harass real people over pixels.
If you disagree with this, kindly block and move on.
Your Kink Is Not My Kink
or YKINMK / YKINMKATO
The longer version is ”Your Kink Is Not My Kink And That’s Okay”.
People have different tastes. Not everything is for everybody.
Even if you don’t like a specific kink, other people are still allowed to use it in their creations.
You are entitled to dislike kinky content and think that it’s ”weird”.
Don’t kink shame or judge people based on their kinks.
This goes both ways: your kink is not someone else’s kink, so don’t push it onto those who are not into it.
Be Kind
or Don’t Be An Asshole
Focus on the things you like instead of the things you hate.
Create and unite instead of destroying and dividing.
Don’t harass real people over fictional things.
Stop stirring up petty drama just to get some attention on social media.
Stop trying to ”win”. Fandom is not a competition.
Remember that your own experiences aren’t universally shared. Your perception of things can differ from someone else’s, but that doesn’t mean either of you is necessarily wrong.
Hi I was wondering how do you draw your anatomy? I’m a big fan of your work especially how you draw the characters figures ^^
Also hi hope you’re doing ok ! And drinking plenty of water 💗
so I've been drawing for a while but what helps me is warming up with gestures (1-5 minutes- roughly 5 each. You can choose to do this weekly or daily- I recommend daily if art is something you're really interested in and passionate about) I recommend using references like crazy because you cant expect yourself to remember how bodies contort and move.
another thing to help you- now I know, I know... 'BUT THAT'S TRACING'.
Look. If you're drawing over anatomy to UNDERSTAND the structure of the skeleton/muscles? DO IT. If it's for educational purposes then I absolutely recommend it. It's hard to understand this stuff if you don't properly understand how muscles overlap on the skeleton. So yes, tracing for educational purposes only??? 1000000% agree with.
Now- if you're tracing poses/over other people's art and posting it? I have some issues, however that's my personal opinion and I can't change what people do.
Once you understand the body and how its structured, drawing in different styles becomes easier.
How do I personally do anatomy?
I can try and break it down but everyone learns differently!
I start off finding the line of action and break down the pose. Obviously the hands a bigger than normal and there's some mishapes but I'm just quickly sketching to show my process :0000
