Policy Changes
a year ago
COMMISSIONS: Open (Check journal for slots!) | TRADES: Closed | REQUESTS: Closed
To be honest, I'd like nothing more than to stick my head in the sand and let this all play out with the upcoming policy changes, but... Given the sheer broad scope of their announcement, I'd be a fool to ignore what's coming. I think what they've described in their policy of permittable content is vague at best, and incredibly stupid at face value. It targets the wrong people, and attempts to mend a real problem in a very wrong way.
I can't see the future, so I don't know who will be targeted, but without a doubt, even the content I post falls under their radar. I've been with this site for a LONG time, and I'd like to see my stay continue. The community that has gathered here, supported and shared my work, it's something that I cherish a lot. But, alas, the writing on the wall's made clear.
Below are some other places you'll find me if my content is found in violation. Because, there's not a snowball's chance I'm deleting anything.

If things blow over and nothing ends up happening, I'll still continue my (very slow!) posts here, regardless. But, I at least want to offer some alternatives for those interested! I understand that both websites do have stigma attached to them for some, and I completely understand. (There is a reason they are inactive, haha) Worst case, my Discord is open on my profile. You can always just send a request to keep in touch there! My life's schedule dictates me to take rather long breaks often, but it is a place you can reach me.

Not going back there, never will go back there.
Yeah, I think that's about the best that can be hoped for.
If it's okay to ask, would you also consider posting to Tumblr, too? Should things, hit the fan?
Regardless, hopefully this all blows over peacefully and your account stays up! Your work is incredible ;w;
So they told Tumblr "scrap the NSFW or gtfo our store" and Tumblr had no choice but to listen at the time bc Iphone was the more popular choice back then so most of the downloads came from there.
But slowly over time, they found a way to block NSFW on iphone/ipad only (like you physically can't turn the NSFW switches on unless on PC or Android), bring the lewd back (just don't draw actual sex, genitals without sex is fine though) and add community labels like twitters "content warnings" but it doesn't hide your post completely from public like twitter.
Also sent a FR on Discord, I really do love your artwork and would love to chat whenever and/or whatever in the future.
Loli/shota enthusiastics have warned you all that this shit is a slippery slope. This is something you should have seen coming. Censoring loli/shota in the first place is too much and nobody actually thinks that just banning the most explicit cases where a character is expressly labeled as a toddler doing sex acts is enough. Labeled being the operative word there, because actually defining what "looks" like a child in art where you can draw anything, any way. Some ambiguity between what looks like a short adult and a kid is only the beginning of the possible ambiguity. Some people also have a warped image of what real children look like in the first place, further complicating things. If anything is even slightly ambiguous as far as whether it's an adult or kid, there will always be people who argue that it is a kid, regardless of what it actually looks like or the intent.
When something is arbitrary and hard to define like that, the people who want to go one way or the other always win. Reality is varying shades of grey but people gravitate towards black and white thinking. It's not necessarily right but it's inevitable and it would be wise to anticipate that, it's just the facts that no-one agrees on where to draw the line. So the pragmatic stance is that either all of it is okay, or none of it is okay.
I'm gonna say all of it is okay, because loli/shota is based. Fuck people who think it is their place to tell me what I can sexualize in art, suck the shota dicks that I draw bitch.
I have recently started using my Twitter account, and I am also planning to use Inkbunny. Both of my accounts are linked below:

Hoping the best for you and that your stuff stays undisturbed, bucko. I'll be around wherever you are!
Have you thought of making a Discord server?
Why not Weasyl? There's literally nothing wrong with the site. There's no stigma for using it, non-ABDL users can simply blacklist diaper-related tags if they don't want to see that stuff, and the website itself seems to run quite nicely. Granted, there isn't much of an ABDL scene there (yet) but we could get the ball rolling. You definitely have the star power to help grow the scene on whichever platform you choose. I'll respect your choice if you'd still rather go with Inkbunny, but I think making a Weasyl account wouldn't hurt either.
