I'm thinking abt that pretty fall leaves embroidery pattern post and about how like... it is categorically a repost, it's a reupload. right? a thing that is generally disliked. but because it's credited, it's genuinely boosting the artist in question.
and it could ALWAYS be like this. reposting content could ALWAYS be a symbiotic relationship, but because sourcing back to the original creator of something is so uncommon, it's just easier to ask people not to repost it at all. and people still don't understand the difference. or they'll go to the effort of cropping out usernames/signatures to repost something, which is More Effort than literally crediting the creator of something you liked enough to want to repost.
Like. I literally don't actually care if my own shit gets reposted, you have to understand. I just don't want it STOLEN. But "do not repost" is easier to write on my art than "you can repost this, but don't alter the image/remove my signature, don't you dare write 'credit goes to the artist' because that is not credit, please link back to my original post or someplace that you can actually find me. please use an actual link/url instead of writing a non-clickable link of my username, because making it text instead of a clickable link cuts the number of people who will go to the effort of visiting my own page in Half."
All those aggregate themed accounts, those fuckin annoying as hell instagrams and facebook groups that are like "body positive art we love wamen 💕 hashtag feminism" and then MASS-STEAL plus sized art created by women, if pages like these that always go and steal my older self-portraits and other works... If they just put a link to my prints of those pieces in the text of those posts, or, fuck, my commission info page? I would literally be living on the moon right now. I would have a house on the moon

moving blogs
HIYA I was thinking about changing the rating of this blog for a while but I think that’s not rly fair to anyone who followed me here lol so I made a new blog!! (Not a side blog)
‼️ @smthaboutusss ‼️
It’s rated 18+, not because I’ll suddenly post nsfw or whatever I just decided I’m more comfortable with that since hh fandom and some of my stuff or the things I discuss are suggestive and I myself am over 18
I can’t vet all of my followers so I’ll just trust u guys to respect my boundaries 😭 tysm‼️ (this goes for anyone, even if we interacted one or two times before or whatever IDGAF 😁)

Kinda weird that (nonblack) people think Black Americans as a whole are privileged compared to them for being American when US incarceration rates are incredibly high specifically because the "justice system" targets them and all the other myriad of issues that are directly focused on disenfranchising Black Americans on a domestic and international scale. Sure individuals are privileged as is the case with any societal class but does the societal class entail you to benefits in the practical sense?
