Hey jsyk it’s 2018 and if you’re still drawing characters with big lips like THIS, even if they’re pale/not black, it’s fucking racist. Stop doing it.
No excuses. “It’s a stylistic choice!” It’s a RACIST stylistic choice.
“Idk how else to draw big lips!” That’s because you relied on racist caricatures and are a bad artist. Teach yourself. Learn. If you’re not willing to do that, then you are a bad, racist artist.
“But it’s part of the character design!” Yeah, and it’s racist. If it’s your OC, then change it. If it’s not your OC, make the right choice and draw them with normal looking bigger lips instead of this racist monstrosity.
And if this post makes you uncomfortable because it’s calling you out for stuff you’ve done, good. Fix it. Own up to it. Grow.
If you see this and you’re first thought is to defend this: you are racist. You are part of the problem. Congrats. Now work on yourself and unlearn that.
This-This is the cutest thing I've seen all day
Hi everyone so I am about to leave for college, my little brother and I love #HarryPotter and so he decided to draw me something. Keep in mind he is 7 years old but it made me so happy and it made me tear up . Please help me share this. It's adorable
Hey y’all!
Me, @lxstfulbeans @skepticalkoi-catastrophe and @kalopsiaologist have decided to come together to create a HUGE Ao3 and Wattpad account exclusively for black/poc readers. We know how upsetting it is to read a fic/book/one-shot where it’s literally x wh*te reader in a nutshell and no representation for POCS whatsoever. And because of that, we decided to take one for the team and do this cuz chile...it’s been getting way outta hand and me personally, I’m sick of it.
It would mean a lot of us if y’all could support us by following us on both accounts, and we promise you, that we’ll go above and beyond to write the best fics for y’all to enjoy.
We’re currently planning our first fic! Stay tune for that👀
Here’s the links that’ll take u straight to the accounts!:

About time
FINALLY!!!
(Real pen the last picture)
It is important for EVERYONE to know how to help ANYONE. Not everyone can give them selves their medicine under every circumstance. Be educated, help out.
In the last year, i have gotten about five new violent allergies from foods i used to be able to eat. Next time i eat a fruit, my throat could close. I may not be able to inject myself. My boyfriend and i played with my trainer pen for like 30 minutes. He knows how to inject it. I know how. This is important.
