Almost worth the trouble of driving a car into the Louvre 🤔

I also stole the jewels off the Louvre, it's been a busy week.

I have the most amazing timing, the exact same thing happened to another project the last time Kickstarter was down for a day. I don't really think it would have made all that much of a difference, but it's funny that it's happened twice!

9h to go on my project, got featured on the front page...Backerkit is down all day 🥲

BackerKit @backerkit.com · 14d

We're still experiencing downtime due to the larger, ongoing AWS outage. Our team is actively monitoring and working to restore services as soon as AWS is fully stable. We appreciate your patience!

I did a silly thing and added two more stretch goals in the dead part of the campaign...it's my fault, I did bad 🥲

Description of a new stretch goal for the feminine rage campaign with a witch hat labeled "spiteful hag", a cute black cat and a couple bits of lavender

A wreath of roses surrounding the phrase "feminist as fuck"

Something no one really talks about if you're not an artist is that art is often intimately connected to our self. Sometimes not being able to reach goals can take a toll.
Feminine Rage is in that funk state of mid-campaign and my mood is suffering for it, but I'm trying really hard to keep busy.

Just unlocked the last stretch goal on my new pin project, and the one I will be donating all profit from to an LGBTQ+ non profit!
Really excited about that, I hope people love it 💜

Launcheddddd!
My most controversial project to date, with 3 posts taken down--- IIIIIITS FEMININE RAGE!
Seriously though, if you're angry at the state of the world, take a look at the project.

Feminine Rage

An enamel pin project with feminist, inclusive themes and bright provocative vibes.

Usually I feel like such a failure because I can't do human character art. People in my field always go "oh, yeah, if you want to sell books commission character art!" and they're wonderful and supportive of character artists. But then you make a pin design for them and they don't even tag you.Ever.

Truer words have never been spoken.

Saphira @geekandartsy.bsky.social · Sep 24

It happened, I've been really angry and channelled it into a new project and I'm launching it next week because I have no self control. Here we go again.

I had a parcel be sent from Portugal to the UK and get here in 1.5 days, *to my hands*. And then I try to send something inside the country and it takes 5-7 business days. Everything in here is fucked.

Saphira @geekandartsy.bsky.social · Sep 15

HUMAN artists, use only one piece to convince people to follow you!
(Photo of my screen because the art has been taken down a couple times)

I posted a new trans rights design yesterday, and it took *one hour* for it to be taken down. Anything feminist, pro human rights, LGBT, is getting hardcore targeted, and I'm so tired.

I desperately need people to stop trying to report my rainbow designs for no other reason than the fact they contain a rainbow.
I need #trekkies to understand that trek has always been proudly diverse and if you're watching #StarTrek and not getting that message, there is something very wrong.
