...as a copyright minimalist, it really pisses me off that so few people in my corner bother to try and come up with very good solutions to "How do artists make a living."
Likeโฆ so many of them just fucking default to "use donation models supported by true fans uwu" and while that can work, even most of the top fucking eschelon of creators on Patreon are basically making poverty wages, and most people who make a living have to treat it as one of many income streams, because again, it's not fucking enough.
Not at the scale artists need, and the way some people in "my" corner ignore that to moralize while failing to come up with better solutions infuriates me.
Like, you'd be surprised that I could be called relatively conservative on my current demands wrt copyright reduction, specifically for reduction back to 56 years in the US (Life + 50 in the countries where applicable) and massive expansion of fair use.
This is because these are things that are doable now without fucking over artists.
I want more, but I am painfully aware that'd be a much bigger project because you'd need to overhaul so much about how we economically handle art as a society, and it pisses me off how nobody's looking for those solutions beyond platitudes!
I've seen a few decent ideas. A "Mario Kart" version of copyright, where the larger in scale a works' rightsholder is the less protection it gets, was suggested by one person, I'd say mutually-supporting collectives based around Creative Commons works (Think akin to the SCP Foundation) would be a good start, as would long-term income-y government art grants that require the stuff produced under them to go into the Public Domain.
Even beyond that, the Peer Production License is also a great way to open up your ideas as well without making them vulnerable to corporate exploitation, that's worth looking into.
But like, we need more of those, and it does piss me off that people supposedly in "my" corner call artists entitled babies for pointing out the problem here!
It's the big obstacle to actually getting shit done, stop calling artists fascist for wanting moral rights Patricia and come up with something that actually works!

Thank you to everyone at #animenyc2018 who stopped by the booth and took some time to look at my comics/manga! A few people were very shocked at the subject matter as opposed to how โcuteโ my clothing designs are, so I sort of had to disclaim people after day 1 of AnimeNYC lol ๐๐ป Showing my comics to people has always been sort of nerve wracking, so seeing people shocked or disgusted at certain parts of my stories was really nerve wracking,,,,, Note: donโt watch people read your own manga so save your own life!

I still really like the guitar/sticker pics taken a few months back ๐ฑ
These Gloomy sticker sheets are also available on shop-Jammo.com! Theyโll be up for sale at AnimeNYC as well, plus a couple other sticker packs I havenโt photographed yet ๐ค๐ฅ
(Of course the other ones are not by be and I do not take credit for them at all. They are just on my guitar. If I photographed my other guitar and used it for advertisement, it would be veryโฆ illegal because of how much thatโs on it lol)
