If we’re all going down I'm going the way I lived, making shitty memes in the face of peril.
His name is Jacob Blake. He was unarmed, trying to break up a fight. He was tasered and shot 7 times while trying to get into a car. His kids were watching.
This happened on 8/23. Havent found too many posts on tumblr about it yet. Police tear gassed protestors who gathered outside the police station. I'll keep an eye out for a gofundme/petition.
Edit:

There seems to be some confusion. He is reportedly alive and in critical condition as on 8/24.

Before I get started, a quick preface:
This post doesn’t apply to all artists.
This post doesn’t apply to all customers.
This may not be your experience, but your experience is not universal.
With that out of the way, let’s get started. This is going to be a very long post, so let me just give you the abstract:
Any artist who takes commissions has an obligation to behave in a professional manner and treat their customers’ time and money with respect.
