Popmannn's Tumblr of Tumblment

Inspired by my love of aquascaping~

I was finally able to go to the doctors recently about that mystery lump in my hand. Turns out it's called Trigger Finger which is inflamed tendons caused by overworking from drawing. There's no real cure but there are management methods so I'm very glad for that.

Months ago I started the Terrarium Life series and never got to finish it due to the lump. Now that I know I can keep drawing with proper management, I'll be returning to all my projects including my comics 🙂

If you like this kind of art, the other 4 of the series will be part of a sticker set that will be given to everyone who backs my artbook Kickstarter~

The story of My Little Pony:Friendship is Magic has ended.

But, to paraphrase an old friend, the adventure continues forever onward.

To all the bronies who feel like they’ve missed their chance to contribute; You haven’t miss your opportunity. Your time is now. Continue creating, whether that be pony or pony-inspired content, because the world will always need a little more magic.

It’s ending this year. And honestly, it’s what I’ve always desired; I never wanted to see Pony drag on for years and become an empty shell of what it once was. Far better to quit while you’re ahead, and go out with a bang. Nine seasons, a spin off, a movie, and a whole hecking worldwide following: that’s living the dream! That’s the ideal life for a cartoon! It’s all for the best…

I know you don’t give a fuck. I know your seat on the apple money throne is too high to hear the voices of your users, but here I go, shouting into the great void between us, into your grand safe space.

You make this lofty post of making a more inclusive and safe Tumblr, but all you do is attack people. you send your mindless bots after their blogs, you put them through days of hell, fighting for their craft, their livelihood, while your bots do nothing but attack innocent people, mes their timelines, flag their posts, delete their blogs, drive a wall between artists and their audience. 

I do not feel your “safe space”, all I feel is the distress of those hundreds of people confused and worried over this event and their loss of ability to enjoy the content i have provided them for free.

I work hard every day because i believe in my craft, i want to offer people a little sliver of escape from their everyday troubles, maybe shed some faint light of hope into their lives, make the life those few moments it takes to read my comics a more tolerable experience. I have been through hell in my own life, comics have saved my life many times over, and here you are, making that altruistic effort to share my experience of hope and escapism substantially harder. Repeatedly flagging my art as offensive, making these mindless accusations on my character and my work. And I do not seem to understand your “idea” of more positive experience. How is it more positive and inclusive to attack people bringing joy and entertainment to others? How does that great lofty goal is in any way advanced by your discriminatory practices? 

You must take people to be complete idiots if you expect them not to see that this is all about you hungering some apple money. Greed, not inclusivity, Moral posturing, not safety. Safety is freedom to express yourself, safety is ability to share your artistic vision without fear of loss of your livelihood and audience because some guy somewhere decides on your behalf if you have right to be heard or seen.

Ideas, even bad ones need to be shared so they can be judged and evaluated on their own merit. Was it then breasts or pastries. Censorship is never the inclusive, safe, tolerant solution. Never.

All you are doing is paving way to another round of puritanical witch hunts. So do posture as some moral paragon, put on airs of inclusivity all you want, but don’t bet on people being dumb enough to buy it when with one hand you go stabbing people in the back, while with other you are shaking hands with the devil in plain sight.

mistress told me to send money to people because i don’t deserve it

Brain: make them all small. 

Me: why tho. 

They make great pets!
