I feel like if you're going to have a discussion with someone, it may at least be someone you can at least have an agreement on baseline reality with.

I'm also not out here to change random strangers minds on the internet by continually offering up myself as a punching bag. Been there, done that, 0/10.

I want community and art and science and all things creative. I want a space to share my thoughts, not invite people to a pointless fighting ring.

Ah, the ol "kind of bigoted, but sort of affirming" experience. Always feels very strange!

One has to take these things as they come, I think. There's at least one or two pieces of outright "bad media" I enjoy. I try to be pretty unapologetic about liking it.

You just can't let your like of that media blind you to the author having issues though. That's the one important thing.

I'm kind of curious about the business end of things. How do you even make a profit shipping as an independent? When I did the odd commission, shipping costs ate so badly into the margins it was hardly even worth it.

I'm a big fan of primordial malzeno. 10/10, no notes, please shield-slam me with your wings again.
