And as tomorrow breaks, I hope you love it too.
I've been pointedly refusing to use the term "content creators" to refer to artists anymore, because I want to make art for me and the people I care about, not the endless demands of the algorithm. I'm not trying to Produce Content, I want to make art.
So it is deeply, deeply irritating when I use the word "artist" in a post and it gets endlessly reblogged with people asking "but what about writers? but what about actors? but what about musicians? but what about [x]?"
All types of art are included in the term "artist," god damn it. "Artist" does not just mean "someone who draws pictures."
I don't know why so many people keep taking this post as "yeah, we should come up with a better word for content creators!"
THAT WORD ALREADY EXISTS.
THE WORD IS "ARTIST," Y'ALL.
THAT IS THE WHOLE POINT OF THIS DAMN POST.
The word "artist" is all-encompassing! By! Definition! We don't need to keep reinventing the fucking wheel!
Do you make art? Any kind of art? Drawings, paintings, comics, novels, songs, dances, photographs, performances, anything creative?
THAT'S ART, BABE. YOU ARE AN ARTIST.
RESIST CAPITALIST COMMODIFICATION OF ART AND CLAIM THE DAMN TITLE.

i am addicted ♡ english cover 【rachie】 僕は依存症
I hate that planned obsolescence is starting to reach fandoms. I hate that fandoms are starting to die after two, three years, I hate that whenever you stop getting content that means the fandom will die and be gone.
I need people to stop trying to brush off old interests as being ‘cringe’ as soon as you lose interest, or worse: make it seem like it’s imoral to like something that they themselves held so dear before.
Fandoms are meant to last for years and years, the moment content stops being created is the moment we truly thrive because we keep creating the content ourselves the way we love it and expand on the things that are already there for us.
I don’t care if you lost interest on something, it’s fine and normal even, but stop trying to blame and make fun of people who still do love the fandom and the content and the things we can create.
I need people to enjoy fandom again
I'm still friends with someone because we bonded during the kagepro craze. It's ok to grow and find new interests but be proud of the things that woke up parts of you.
if she's got blue eyes I will surmise you'll probably date her...

It’s a new soundtrack 💙 Here are the back covers and vault track titles for 1989 (my version) I can’t wait for this one to be out, seriously. Thank you for playing along, sleuthing, puzzling and making these reveals so much chaotic fun (which is the best kind of fun, after all 😜)
