I think the fact that it IS so often used to be demeaning is why it gives me the ick. It's kind of like how "sweetie" has taken on a negative connotation because of how many mean girlies use it to be belittling.

Kay, it's sweet that some of y'all think I seem cool, but why does that have to translate into "marry me" and "I found my next partner". I don't find that very funny. Y'all are too comfortable with the people you see online sometimes, is all I'm saying.

Okay, I'm gonna say it. I strongly dislike being called "twin". I don't know WHY I dislike this particular slang thing, but it makes me oddly uncomfortable and kinda cringes me out. It's functionally no different from something like "bro" or "fam", yet it FEELS different. Am I alone in this?

L'Estasi di Giorno Giovanna. I'm still fond of this one. It's the reflection of all the things I was most passionate about at the time. #jjba #art

Buying secondhand online is always so interesting. I love the tiny insight I get into other people's lives, from the obvious weed smells to the random snacks boxes they use to pack the item. I mean, I already love thrifting cos of the humanity left over, but now there's EVEN MORE :D

So fun when I get those "collaboration opportunities" that start with telling me that they love my content and think I'd be a great fit and then proceed to ask for me to promote AI slop and/or promote them on a social media I do not have Thanks, and good research work bro

Love when people make fun of content warnings by saying stuff like "come on its not your responsibility to keep other people from seeing stuff that they don't wanna see" Yeah, it's the individual's problem, which is why I'm telling them what the stuff is, so they can make that choice?? Smh

Maybe it's just kind of like the "I'm depressed", "well just go on a walk" kind of thing. Gee, if it was really that simple, I'd already be doing it!

It's sad, but I get a little frustrated when people tell me to "take a break" from art/YouTube now. Bro. Art is my favorite thing, even when I'm burnt out or uninspired. YouTube makes me money that currently helps support me and punishes me FOR taking breaks. It's just not that simple.

Also lmao what is even the basis for calling me a bigot here?? I'm not the one accusing someone else of being a pedo and torturing their recently deceased pets cos they happen to be queer. That's you, my guy. Every accusation is a confession and all that.

I miss them so much already. I don't know how to be when they aren't there to greet me in the morning or snuggle before bed. I'd say it was cruel that they had such short lives compared to me, but no amount of time would have been enough. Goodbye to my best little buds. ❤️

Omg first donation <3 Also this is hilarious because A. I never attended art school and have never claimed to while actually being quote open about my having a science degree B. This person has a fugly ass AI art profile picture lmao

I think from now on, I should keep a tally of nasty homophobic/transphobic comments. Every time some dumbass tells me to seek Jesus or mental health help or just generally telling me why "can't support me", gonna donate 1 more dollar to a charity that aids queer folks.

Ya know, I have had so few moments when I'm watching a show or something and I just think "he wouldn't do that". But he wouldn't do that. What the hell bro no he did not cheat on his wife excuse me????

I'm talking about the people who yell "cringe" at people who show off how excited they are at something, or mock people for being rightfully upset at something. People don't just close themselves off. They attack others for not wanting to do the same, and it's gross. That's bully shit.

Bubbs @bubbs-here.bsky.social · 28/06/2026
Again, I agree that some people should maybe keep SOME things to themselves, and this is precisely why. Unfortunately, that doesn't justify what I'm actually talking about, and that is going around and trying to police others for expressing human emotion online, lol.

It's entitlement and selfish thinking. It's always entitlement and selfish thinking. Everyone in the Internet seems wholly convinced that they alone know the right way to think and to be, and anything outside of that must change to cater to that. It's sad, honestly. So sad.

...is actually a valid critique in most if not all cases. It's actually not always a shallow nitpick to point out animation errors, awkward dialogue, or weird audio. Just because something is obvious to you doesn't mean it will be obvious to everyone, too.

Bubbs @bubbs-here.bsky.social · 25/06/2026
We are also already swiftly careening into territory where everything is labeled "media illiteracy" if it even seems sort of close to the common annoying things. I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but questioning a character's logic or a massive gap in a worldbuilsing rule...

Bubbs @bubbs-here.bsky.social · 25/06/2026
...not that these poor, shallow critiques that are founded in a misunderstanding of art and rhetoric don't need to be accepted, but that they SHOULDN'T be and are inherently wrong. That's not how that works, actually. People are allowed to have their own takeaways with art.

Bubbs @bubbs-here.bsky.social · 25/06/2026
Now, obviously I don't think there's anything wrong with sharing your opinion and presenting you'd perspective to others. I do it all the time, lol. I'm calling out the people that are just as transparent about a need for everyone to agree, and try to convince people...

Bubbs @bubbs-here.bsky.social · 25/06/2026
To me, the biggest issue with the people nitpicking is that they cannot admit that sometimes, you'll just not like something, and they will grasp at straws trying to prove that no one should like it either. You don't magically become cool just because it's the other way around.

Bubbs @bubbs-here.bsky.social · 25/06/2026
...cater to precisely what they think it SHOULD be. However, I am already seeing the pendulum swinging too far the other way, currently in that extremely hypocritical way that always seems to happen.

Bubbs @bubbs-here.bsky.social · 25/06/2026
I am glad that there is a broader conversation starting online about how criticism has been getting more and more rooted in shallow nitpicks that distract from the actual experience you're supposed to have, and/or that fail to account that only a small fraction of art could ever possibly...

...on the Internet is kind of dying. Maybe we should be celebrating vulnerability and honesty and joy and grief and anger and all the other beautiful emotions our brain can cook up. I think that would probably be better.

Bubbs @bubbs-here.bsky.social · 24/06/2026
I wanna chalk it up to people generally having this entitled belief that other people on the Internet exist for their pleasure only, but that just cannot explain it all. I just don't get it. It's not a bad thing to feel. It's not cringe to care. It's human, and nowadays, humanity...

Bubbs @bubbs-here.bsky.social · 24/06/2026
...as a personal diary, and even that sometimes there is art that is better suited for a private sketchbook. However, the amount of people who legit think that it's weird or cringe for people to actually open up about their feelings, positive or negative, is kind of whacky.

Bubbs @bubbs-here.bsky.social · 24/06/2026
Why do people genuinely try to enforce the idea that being on the Internet means you aren't allowed to express human emotions anymore? I mean, I totally agree that maybe crying on a public YT video is not always advisable, and that some people might need to rethink using a public Tumblr...

I am so fucking tired of people "appreciating my art" but they have absolutely no interest in respecting the person that made it. If you honestly cannot do a basic courtesy of learning how I want to be referred to before doing so, my art isn't for you. Fuck off.

How fucking hard is it to just look at my fucking pronouns? I'm sorry, I'll get tagged and referred to by people who clearly only ever saw my handle, maybe my PFP, never heard my voice or more than the face in the PFP. Even in a world where dumbasses still think guessing willy nilly is proper...
