considering sharing the rest of my Clara's TARDIS Cafe drawings from ages ago but beyond just cringe I have a legit fear here
so this series of drawings is purely personal and for fun. it's a reflection of my heart in more ways than one, including a bunch of characters I love. None of this is smut or otherwise sexual. it includes children characters like Poppi Xenoblade and Mavis Fairy Tail because they're great characters
but I'm a smut artist. people know me for smut. most of what I make is smut because of capitalism. it's the only way I make money right now, because rule 1 of capitalism is sex sells, and in the self-taught art world (in general), not-sex not-sells. I'm afraid of posting this stuff to the same account even though it's just purely wholesome because I don't want to be accused of being a pedo. fascists love accusing queer people of being pedos and even a baseless fascist calling me a pedo could ruin my one source of income
I made a tumblr account a couple years ago specifically to post these things, away from my smut work so I could keep it separate. I haven't logged into tumblr in ages. never found a community there, unlike here
so idk if I should share it or not. I'm scared of what people think of me in the best of times let alone if I got accused of being a pedo for being a cringe queer smut artist who has interests outside of smut
And for real... it's a pervasive fear that dictates the way I think. I've seen it before on twitter a number of times where people are called groomers or pedos or whatever for the most mundane and innocent queer things. I know this isn't twitter, but it's still the internet. surely reasonable people realise that you can separate the horny parts of your life from the not horny parts of your life, but I feel stained because I'm a smut creator. I feel like I can't so much as acknowledge the existence of children anymore because I'm a queer smut creator
and beyond all that, I feel bad for even posting this. I fear that me posting about my fear of being called a groomer or a pedo will incite people to call me a pedo anyway
