I will defend furries to my fucking grave. When I was in the hole and needed money for college, not a SINGLE person from tumblr or deviantART ordered a commission. Sometimes people would ask about prices and reply, “Oh, nevermind, that’s too expensive.” I felt miserable.
In a fit of desperation, I brushed off my old Furaffinity account and revamped it. It was full of old, outdated bullshit and still had my “Taco pancakes!!! XDDD” aesthetic embedded in the info box. I had a lot of work to do.
When I was done, I started following and talking to people, I made an art shop, I started posting things and providing commission info.
Within a few weeks, I had my first customer. After a month, I had a full queue of commissions lined up to go. I have $250 in my PayPal wallet left after paying for my textbooks and part of my tuition – and I’m still getting more business!
And you know what my most common comment was? “Your art really should cost more.” These were often followed by $10-20 tips. I was fucking flabbergasted.
So yeah, go ahead and make fun of furries. Undermine the hours of work that goes into their art and fursuits. But they are more willing to pay for art than the tumblr and deviantART community COMBINED, despite all the pro-artist uwu bullshit I see every other page on this damned site.
gordon ramsey: so what’s wrong with the restaurant? a staff member about to drag out every single bad and/or questionable thing their boss has ever done:
We really need to start making older men AFRAID of seeing girls in their late teens as potential partners.
‘But she’s so emotionally mature’
No NONCE she ain’t!!!!! ‘Emotionally mature’ compared to what? She’s a baby!!! Her willingness to carry YOUR bullshit and nurse your ego is not emotional maturity!
Men are just scared to date women their own age bc they are so transparently fucking pathetic and selfish and utterly undesirable and know that women w more life experience will recognise those things about them immediately. Fucking losers
I was taught fairly young that an older man showing interest in a younger woman or teenager meant that he’d been rejected by women his own age and was preying on younger women because of their lack of experience.
You’re lying on the sofa under a blanket, lights dimmed, watching your favourite TV show. Your cat is laid across you, sleeping but purring quietly. All is calm. All is good.
