i cannot possibly overstate the psychological damage of growing up being abused in a way that is considered so disgusting as to be literally unspeakable and treated as such.

every single person on this website and everywhere else needs to take a long fucking look at how they talk about and think about csa and how it might fucking feel to have things that literally happened to you be considered so taboo that frank depictions are declared obscene or so disgusting so as to be talked about only in whispered tones

CAN YOU EVEN BEGIN TO CONCEPTUALIZE THE MULTIPLICATION OF TRAUMA THAT COMES FROM YOUR ABUSE BEING TREATED LIKE RADIOACTIVE WASTE THAT MUST BE BURIED LEST IT CONTAMINATE OTHERS BY ITS VERY ACKNOWLEDGEMENT DESCRIPTION OR EXISTENCE

through various circumstances beyond your control, you are being forced to add a minimum of one extra eye to your body. the entity (probably wizard or warlock) forcing this upon you is nice enough to give you a choice.

what do you do?

just one discreet eye on an easily-covered part of my body. like a coward

another pair above/under my existing eyes

one or both hands. like a video game boss or that pale dude from pan’s labyrinth

third eye on forehead. classic

i’m going all in. give me a bunch all over my body

a different, funnier option (elaborate in tags)

a different, more horrifying option (also elaborate in tags)

note: the eye/s will by default look like your pre-existing eyes, same color and shape, unless you come up with something cool enough to convince the wizard/warlock to put in the extra effort to fulfill your design desires. i.e. giving you the pupil of a goat, making your iris purple, making the eye insanely large, etc. make your plea in the tags if you so wish.

Creators Tell Tales Of Comics Industry Use And Abuse #ComicsBrokeMe

The tragic death of Ian McGinty at the age of 38, has brought a new focus on the working pressures in comics with the hashtag #ComicsBrokeMe

Bleeding Cool News

#ComicsBrokeMe has been gaining steam on Twitter over the past two days, but I haven’t seen a whisper of it on my dash here. The Bleeding Cool article summarizes some of the major threads.

Neil Gaiman amplified the hashtag yesterday, as did Frank Miller of all people.

To summarize: the industry is terrible. It’s always been terrible, and it’s getting worse. Page rates are less than they were ten years ago; deadlines are getting shorter. And it’s not just the Big Two (Marvel has always been a meat grinder, but DC is almost as bad), but the majority of the indie publishers too. Digital publishers aren’t exempt from this either.

If you can stomach going over to the blue check nonsense site, I would recommend scrolling through the hashtag.

being into niche kinks is so hard. i KNOW there is art of this because this is an uberpopular franchise but how do i fucking find it
