For those who do not gram:

It's three days until Valentine's Day which is a good enough reason to post clips from the most Garashir episode of Deep Space Nine

I strongly suggest checking into yourself about this bias—same for writers who only ever describe the skin of POC. I used to do the same and had to unpack it! Ask yourself why it's only the POC who is described in your approach, and why there is an assumption your audience holds the same bias.

I've noticed for a while now, how some artists treat white people as the default in alt text. For instance, "Two men, one of whom is dark-skinned," is similar to what I've seen. Imagine listening to this as a descriptor. You're being guided to assume one is white and the other isn't—an outlier.

wols (+ G'raha!) for friends #5 💗

re knight sex: I touched on the contrast between skin and armor a little in the Stephanivien/Tedalgrinche fic I wrote for the first Rarepair Week :3 🔗: archiveofourown.org/collections/...

Knight sex is great. I’m imagining the difficulty and weirdness of metal on skin and it’s like. Such a lovely contrast.

Happy 2 years to my Shadowbringers tattoo by @voxcyde.bsky.social 😎💎 The coolest thing when people recognize him in the wild! I befriended a barista at a local coffee shop because of this guy 😆 #ffxiv #crystalexarch #shadowbringers #grahatia

Joy's squiggwols are so cute. I always love seeing them, and getting to delight in how a character's most recognizable details get distilled down into Little Guy format (gender-neutral). :D

oh, the wolgraha of it all~

as a thirty year old who draws weird shit and does whatever she wants i have some advice to ppl who gotta hear it. it's literally impossible to please everyone. it's literally impossible to create and engage with things that won't bother *somebody*.

i'm going to reply directly to people with art going forward but SEVERAL OF YOU requested G'raha Tia so i'm just gonna qrp the original post with him LMAO 😭💕 this is actually my first time drawing him!! #ffxiv

His ears do a funny little half-up half-down thing, and while *he* feels like his whole face goes red the reality of it is that his cheeks just go a little pink, which very charmingly highlights his freckles. 😊

“You ought to get some rest.” “So should you. Do you want to be alone?” He thought about lying. But he was tired and the man who’d taught him to was dead. “No.” “Then you won’t be.” Just like that. He had no idea what he’d done to deserve him.

Reminder that "degenerate" was a term coined by Nazis to describe art they didn't like and labeled problematic. Unless you have proof of real world harm, leave people alone and let them draw fucknasty shit. You have block and mute features. Stop making your disgust everyone else's problem.

I am generally pretty good at context-switching when it comes to acronyms, but "DTMF" is the one that throws me for a loop every time. I can't read it as anything other than "dual-tone multi frequency", which is the technical term for the noises your phone's keypad makes. 😅

Lil' snip of something that probably won't turn into a longer fic, but it popped fully-formed into my head earlier and I needed to get it down. Sometimes the most romantic thing you can do for your introvert partner is leaving him alone for a few hours. 😄 #ffxivwriters #ffxivfanfic

Day 10 - Gold Saucer "Leavin' naught to chance, I see," Riol chuckled, noting the magician had even glamoured the color of his chest hair. "Match all over?" Ifan snorted as he raised his glass to his lips. "Tell me some good news, and I might let you take a peek." #febhyurary | #kaleidopose
