Rat's Saucy Nest

PSA because someone with reach in certain tumblr circles found and reblogged my BB-8 post and I have a lot of nasty hate in my inbox now: 

I don’t mind if you make fun of it or anything, at all! It’s super silly. It’s super weird. I understand! I think it’s weird myself, and I realize that it’s even weirder for someone who never has been in contact with any kind of rule 34 before. But the second it turns from making fun of it into harassing me (or even just people who dared to defend me) or sending me death threats is where it becomes a problem. Don’t be that guy. Nobody likes that guy. You don’t have to put others down to make yourself feel better.

Just because I draw a spherical droid from Star Wars with a fake vagina doesn’t mean I want to fuck said spherical droid. It also doesn’t mean that BB-8 arouses me. On the contrary, I think the character is super cute and most adorable, I don’t see anything sexual in it at all. I can’t believe how many people aren’t able to differentiate between reality and fiction. 

Also, just because I drew said droid with a vagina instead of a dick doesn’t mean I’m a misogynist and/or rapist (Yes, people called me a rapist for drawing BB-8 with a fleshlight stuffed in one of her ports). Seriously, you can’t yell at me and call me a misogynist for sexualizing a female character and then tell me in the same message that droids don’t have a gender. At least decide why exactly you’re mad at me.

Also while you’re at it, please think about how a silly little drawing that was never meant to be more than a joke and meant to be fun makes you so mad that you feel justified to send Anonymous hate on Christmas. (Small reminder: this here is a porn blog, I draw porn for fun and about 10k followers follow me because they think cartoon porn is fun too, don’t kinkshame) Seriously, a drawing makes you mad. Do you even realize how that sounds? Are you self aware enough to realize that you’re judging someone for what’s essentially a doodle? A drawing you could just ignore or scroll past makes you mad to the point where you need to harass the artist and call for the artist’s suicide.

And maybe you should rethink your life if a drawing is able to make you this angry. I didn’t realize how many people on tumblr are so full of hate and just wait for the opportunity to jump at someone’s throat. It’s kinda pathetic, I can’t even imagine how miserable someone’s life has to be to be able to find joy in spreading hate. I usually stay away from those harassment circles and everything political or social justice related on tumblr because those topics tend to attract those kind of people on both sides. But today I fully understood why so many people say tumblr is toxic. It’s interesting how there’s this huge community of people here who are just drawing weird porn and having fun and then suddenly another group of people who also use tumblr realize the first community exist and immediately start screeching and throwing shit. Can’t we all just be mature about it?

Sorry to my followers for the huge wall of text. I thought about ignoring the haters, because obviously a lot of them just do it for the attention and ignoring it all would’ve definitely been the smarter move. But after thinking for a while and getting more and more messages I felt the need to write out my thoughts because some of them seriously think they’re on higher moral ground. Pro tip: The moral high ground isn’t a place from where you can throw stones more effectively.
