I’ve seen a bunch of people in the notes concerned (like I was) of comparisons of members of the lgbt to dogs: but upon visiting their website I was reassured that they monitor a variety of content, including (but not limited to):
THIS IS A GOOD SITE
Yeah, this site is literally so people can check for content they don’t want to see…or in some cases content that would make them physically or mentally ill. (I have strobe issues myself…)
It’s highly useful for a lot of people.
I had no idea they warned for strobe effects, that’s awesome! They give me headaches and nausea.
They frequently add more categories, it seems – there have been more added just about every time I’ve visited the site. And they’re clearly open to suggestions, as the twitter exchange in the OP shows 😀
A short comic I made originally for Kiwi Magazine, an online anthology at my school. The theme this quarter was “wet,” and as I love mermaid lore I thought it was a perfect opportunity to depict an idea I’ve had for a long time, about a human creation/fall-from-paradise story from the perspective of mermaids. This was a challenge because i’ve mostly been working digitally for most of my art pieces, but I decided to make this comic with traditional pen and ink! it certainly does have a different, more intimate feel to making comics like this, ahaha.
The last image is inspired by a piece I made in high school that I’m still rather fond of and has stayed in my mind for the past two years, and I’m glad I was finally able to kind of build a kind of context around it even if the exact story of the fallen plane is one that isn’t told here.
Anyway, hope you enjoyed! Comic-making is very hard but I am so in love with it. :’D I do have more ideas for other stories set in this world, as well as a lot of incoherent thoughts about the interrelation between fantasy and history, although it might be some time before I get around to them.
Also I’m planning on putting up some of my thumbnails/concept drawings from this project on my Patreonso swing by and check it out if you’re interested in seeing more mermaid lore-y stuff!
just moving along like everyone else
