Anonymous asked: Do you ever think you'll stop drawing fanart? No offense it just seems like the kind of thing you're supposed to grow out of. I'm just curious what your plans/goals are since it isn't exactly an art form that people take seriously.
answered:

Ah, fanart. Also known as the art that girls make.

Sad, immature girls no one takes seriously. Girls who are taught that it’s shameful to be excited or passionate about anything, that it’s pathetic to gush about what attracts them, that it’s wrong to be a geek, that they should feel embarrassed about having a crush, that they’re not allowed to gaze or stare or wish or desire. Girls who need to grow out of it.

That’s the art you mean, right?

Because in my experience, when grown men make it, nobody calls it fanart. They just call it art. And everyone takes it very seriously.

HEY LOOK, FANART OF ZEUS AND HERA

People tell stories.  And then people draw those stories.  It is not a new thing.  It is not a child’s thing.  It is a cornerstone of human interaction since humans have existed.

i am doing a really odd thing

i don’t know what I’m going to do with it when I finish it, but i’m happy to be doing it

is it time to go to Gallifrey One yet?

I thought I was going to feel better after I called the guy who wants to take my fingerprints for this state job application, but I think I feel infinitely worse. 

He pretty much told me that since they want my fingerprints and a background check that I have the job contingent upon there not being anything shady in my background and I really, really, really, really, really, don’t want to work at the parole office with asshole officers and metal detectors and behind one way mirrors and locked in scary parts of Pittsburgh all day and everyone I met there was an overly aggressive middle aged white man and I felt really uneasy and gross there and fuuuuuck, but I am making myself sick over not having a job and being here being a drain on my parents that I feel obligated to go through with all of this. 

I so hope something else happens before all this stuff goes through so I can refuse them with no guilt. :C
