Here’s My Small Tutorial On How To Draw Freckles!  It’s Not That Complicated, So I’m Hoping It

“Trans men can be misogynistic because they’re MEN”

No, everyone can be misogynistic because misogyny is not stored in the gender.

Did a small #tutorial for class on “How to Improve Storytelling in Panel Layouts”! Thought it might help some peepz around here!

How to Write an Antihero

An antihero is neither a hero not a villain, but a character who lacks the qualities necessary to be a hero. Because an antihero hinges on knowing what a hero is, you can check out my article on How to Write a Hero.

Flaws and Virtue

              Most characters have flaws and virtues. However, the flaws of an antihero are more balanced compared to those of a hero. Of course, an antihero must not be so flawed as to stray into villainy. They are simply too flawed and not virtuous enough to be called a hero.

Good Intentions

              The motives behind antiheros are what separates them from villains. They will likely want a noble outcome, such as saving the kingdom, but might go about it the wrong way. For example, if a character holds a princess hostage in hopes of negotiating with the king, the reasons and methods are what divide the categories. The point between an antihero and villain is what he wants from the king and how he treats the captured princess.

Sympathy

              As I demonstrated, an antihero is contingent on how the audience understands their actions, motives, and values. A way to achieve this balance is by manipulating the audience’s sympathy. Read my article about writing sympathetic characters to learn more.

sometimes i feel like a fake anime fan bcuz i can’t remember names or plot points 😭

An important thread by certified catboy.

Screenshot transcript: Whenever a new bl game or anime or manga or smthn comes out there's always ppl like "I better not see any women read/watch/play this" or "wait till the women get to this" and that is not the allyship to mlm u think it is. That's just misogyny. I say this so many times but you cannot have full queer representation and normalization in media without allowing EVERYONE to read and partake in it. I'm so tired of seeing this performative activism let people enjoy boys kissing. It's not fetishization until it's translated onto real mlm/nblm, by micromanaging who can read what queer media depending on their labels n shit is so sickening man, we WANT queer media to be enjoyed by all, not gatekept and further isolated from others.

If your idea of “social justice” can actually be boiled down to “which group is an acceptable target”, you forgot about the “justice” part. 

Damn, Daniel :p
