Razzek - Let Me Teach You How To Navigate Your Way To Defeat!

SHOT AND CHASER page 134 is up!

I'm scrambling to wrap up a bunch of freelance work in hopes that I can focus on S&C after Thanksgiving and get back to 2 pages a week.

Your personal triggers and squicks do not get to determine what kind of art other people make.

People make shit. It's what we do. We make shit to explore, to inspire, to explain, to understand, but also to cope, to process, to educate, to warn, to go, "hey, wouldn't that be fucked up? Wild, right?"

Yes, sure, there are things that should be handled with care if they are used at all. But plenty more things are subjective. Some things are just not going to be to your tastes. So go find something that is to your tastes and stop worrying so much about what other people are doing and trying to dictate universal moral precepts about art based on your personal triggers and squicks.

I find possession stories super fucking triggering if I encounter them without warning, especially if they function as a sexual abuse metaphor. I'm not over here campaigning for every horror artist to stop writing possession stories because they make me feel shaky and dissociated. I just check Does The Dog Die before watching certain genres, and I have my husband or roommate preview anything I think might upset me so they can give me more detail. And if I genuinely don't think I can't handle it, I don't watch it. It's that simple.

Chloé Zhao, who just won an Oscar for best director, writes fanfiction.

That's the kind of validation I needed in my life. Thank you, ma'am.

Just to be clear, if your idea of an ideal future at any point involves killing disabled people or allowing disabled people to die- you're not a punk, you're a fascist. Hope that helps

My account is about to go into the red again :) in order for that to not happen, $15 lineart-only headshots/busts for a very limited time (or you can just donate directly)! If you want a full piece of artwork instead, I can apply the "oh god help" discount to that as well! Oh god! Help! Haha!

DM me for details or just toss spare change at me as you go by!
