I'm tired of people just pulling randomly from the "newest deviations" section of DeviantArt and posting it in a cringe thread. Cringe is more than "bad art". It needs drama behind it. Some history. An artist who identifies as some fucking object or whatever.

Throw me a bone anons.

That said, here's one of my favorites :^)

I was a member of both sites.

She never gave a shit about improving. She only spent time in off-topic threads shooting the shit with other weirdos. It was just a social outlet, a platform for pushing her feminist/lgbtq views, and she left when she realized it wasn't the tumblr hug-box she wanted.

I have no problem with feminism or lgbtq shit btw. She just pushed those topics when they didn't even apply because she had identity issues and needed attention. And the second site she mentioned wasn't the conservative hate machine she makes it out to be, it was mostly liberals and SJWs who just weren't as extreme as she is.

"Non-binary" means that thei gender identity doesn't fall into the binary categories of "male" and "female". Queer means pretty much the same, it's redundant.

No no lads, queer means their ~~sexual orientation~~ is also ambiguous and snowflakey. Non-binary and queer, in the realms of tumblr pseudoscience, are the most non-committal options one can take to label their tumblr gender and tumblr sexuality, translating to "not normal", or more accurately, "not like the other girls."

It's what ordinary heterosexual females choose when, deep down, faggotry and degeneracy still disturbs them but they need to be part of the clique.

>sexual assault survivor

I don't get it. How do you ''survive'' sexual assault? It's not like people often die during rape or whatever.

Also, why is it that every tumblrina always cites/claims they've been raped at some point? It's almost like a badge with the way they announce it all the time really....

Not sure if it is her, as the url of that image does not match any of her known accounts, but there was this "artist" who drew in a similar motif, with MLP characters surrounded by banners proclaiming bullshit ideas, so I was instantly reminded of her.

Goes and joins the website.
Wants everyone to pat her on the back, kiss her ass, and give her a gold star because she is such a special snowflake. What happens? The community doesn't give any fucking shits about her or her sjw opinions/thoughts.
Cries wolf.

Best part:
>Dolling communities aren’t just about art. Many see their hobby as a means to bond and make friends
>While my artistic skills didn’t necessarily improve, the dolling forums provided something akin to a family to me
>But then something shifted. My attitude towards my art got a bit more serious. I joined a new forum and started shifting more toward pixel art communities and away from dolling. And that’s when things changed.
>The pixel art forums I joined emphasised artistic improvement over community bonding and most of the population were men spanning a wide variety of ages, from teenagers to older men who were heavily involved in early gaming artistry
>pixel artists still focus on using as little colour as possible to make realistic forms. And the artistry within pixel art with limited palettes can be jaw dropping. I became enthralled and enthusiastic about the challenge and inspired by the talent around me
>Over time, I began to feel more artistically “ethical” than dollers who relied on tools and bases. And while my art did improve, my attitude didn’t. I became dogmatic about artistic improvement and my own internalised misogyny made me turn my back on the dolling community and its emphasis on kindness and femininity and sharing with a sneer
>My attempts to rejoin the dolling community didn’t go well. I’d become so engrossed in critiquing art, dollers often took my well-intentioned feedback badly. And I was so hardheaded in the idea that I’d done something good for them, I refused to respect their perspective
>I regret my inability to respect and appreciate the dolling community while I was part of it. I’m frustrated that the misogyny that I’d learned made me so antagonistic towards the emphasis on kindness the dolling community had

>striving to improve is misogynistic and somehow opposed to femininity

Don't act like H.P lovecraft invented the word 'queer' because he didn't. It's still sometimes used in countries where it wasn't used as a slur against homosexuals but in America it was which is why I'm flabbergasted, as someone who was insultingly called queer in school, why teeny boppers on tumblr think it's okay to use now. Are we reclaiming 'fag' too?

It's because they want to be the "other" too. They really want to be considered strange and needing protection.

What's strange is the way they clamor to claim to be something that's not normal; I have this many personality disorders, am non binary, aromantic (whatever the fuck that means), consider myself a victim because a weird old man looked at me a little too long one time, etc.

iirc survivor (in place of 'victim') was added to make victims feel empowered, brave, strong for trying to get their life back together and dealing with it,
to know people arent looking at them with eyes of pity, but admiration
quite a positive outlook
but everyone wants to be called strong and brave, so everything is rape now and everyones a survivor
