Making art is like taking a shit. You get ideas and then have to make them.
If you don't make them, it causes problems. You feel like garbage, you struggle to take in new matter for new ideas.

And then bits of it will leak out when you REALLY don't want it to, mixing the stopped-up art with the other art you want to do.

You have to make the art you want to, like you have to take a shit.

Only works on bsky, tumblr or shouting out on dA or something. On twitter you get put in the consoomer box for doing that, gg with your presence.

Only half-true. Yes be professional, sure.

But if you start to fear the people who follow you you done fucked up son. You have to do regular purges of your audience so that you get rid of the troglodytes that would rather backstab you when you draw something they don't like. They have less power without a critical mass of people who agree vs everyone else telling them to shut the fuck up and leave.

It's more important to be wary of who you get CLOSE to (which includes OTHER ARTISTS) because BPD fuckers will quite literally see no problem with lying if it soothes their own emotions.

It's considered "rude" by crab artists who don't know how this shit works and think twitter is a Congolese quid-pro-quo situation where everyone has to "move forward together" by collectively scamming the public. And who think they can gatekeep out people they don't like by forming cliques of circlejerk promotion.

That is why those people prefer bsky lol.

Integrity is about paying your debts and being honest. It's not about conforming to shitbags who don't understand how to have fun without social status points being involved.
