I’m completely okay with my art being used in video edits or reposted with proper credit, but I do not allow my artwork to be edited or altered in any way.

It's come to my attention through my inbox that my kerdly art from last year has been edited in a very disgusting manner. This unfortunately isn’t the first time my art has been subjected to something like this. I’ve tried to ignore it and continue focusing on drawing what I love but it has become really discouraging.

I’ve already been on an abrupt hiatus for a while due to being busy with IRL and personal matters. Seeing my art being treated this way has only made me feel even more discouraged about sharing my work publicly.

Because of this I think I’ll be taking some more time away. If I can gather the courage to share my art again, I’ll come back.

I still genuinely appreciate everyone who has left kind comments, supported my work, and enjoyed the things I’ve created. It means a lot to me. But I think I’ve simply reached my limit for now and need some time away.

I can't even count the number of times I have explained this discourse to other trans people who are not on Tumblr or not online really at all and they've gone "Oh. that's stupid. we're supposed to be a unified community, that sounds like unnecessary division".

Spread the love! Even a spammy long nosed doll deserves a chance to feel like himself.

old art i dont think i ever posted

So, basing myself entierly on the Hungarian Wikipedia here: Báthori Erzsébet was a powerful noble woman at a time when women were losing political power. She'd inherited a lot of land from her husband, and, well. Should she vanish from the scene, that land could go to someone else who wants it more. So she was arrested for alleged murder with very little evidence, and imprisoned. The King actually wrote a letter asking her to be released, because, again, very little evidence, but that letter was ignored.

The first documented claims of the bloodbaths are from about a generation after her death. From what documents we have from her lifetime, she seemed to have been a perfectly nice noblewoman, only politically inconvenient.

Add to this: This story sounds EXACTLY like something that people in the Middle Ages would tell about someone they wanted discredited. See the blood libel accusations directed against the jewish community. If I wanted to smear the good name of a woman at that time, then "she KILLS beautiful, young girls and BATHES in their blood, because she is OLD AND UGLY and cannot accept that. Also she's GAY" would be a very good way of doing that.
