I’ll be leaving after Tumblr’s policy change

I paint too much nudity and I do not agree with their policy change, nor do I agree with how they plan on policing it. I am all for using none human, automated technologies for content moderation, but I don’t believe they have the right mindset or team anymore to use these tools in a way that reflects the needs and wants of the user base.

I fully understand that automated moderation, when it comes to content and community at this scale, can be very difficult; and I can’t even imagine what their technical team has had to deal with through the Verizon and Yahoo merges over the last few years. My heart goes out to those engineers and managers who tried to keep the original Tumblr values alive as long as possible.

Corporate drama aside, from my POV there is no excuse to lay out new terms of service that will, witgout question, target and detriment a large majority of artists, comedians, writers, hobbyists, and more importantly porn/sex workers.

In some time, I’ll have https://carrie.pics pointed elsewhere.

Painting I completed last month. I hung it next to my lateralus vinyls (they are unusable on a player, so figured what the heck). Still experimenting with textures. Really enjoying how this came out

If you flip it upside down, the heads become a body’s heart ♡

She came along, eventually, with gratuitous cropping. I should art more, but corporate stole my soul.

Lost the tendrils in painting, but progress has been made on last upload
I am just… slow now. But it’s ok.

Progress has been made on this, but I am still deciding how to finish it.

Working on a painting after a few months of art block

I started out a self portrait of myself when I was feeling like absolute garbage. Finished it today and had fun using all the “wrong” colors for everything. The end result was a little more neutral in expression than I’d originally intended, but that’s fine with me. It’s hard living with relentless apathy that makes you feel gross, like a troll or gremlin

I am so close to being done with this, to the point where I may just call it finished and accept imperfections.

I wanted to share my progress anyways since I’ve been working on this for a few months now and haven’t updated my blog much. This painting is dedicated to my journey with self-image, ego (or lack thereof), and trauma.
