I have a question for you: Have you checked your MAPS?
“What’s MAPS you ask? Well it’s a simple little way to remember if the criticism you’re giving is worth posting! It’s as easy as M-A-P-S!
Do you know the author or artist? Do you know them outside of their work? Would you want to hear their opinion on your work? Do you have any work to compare?
Are you cold-messaging them via the comments section on AO3? Is this during another conversation you were already having? Will they get a notification and get all excited only to see it’s you picking apart their art?
Did they ask you for input? Did you ask them if they wanted input? Remember, kids, there’s a word for people who give unwanted negative input: asshole!
Are you focusing on one or two aspects, or are you criticizing the entire vibe? If you dislike the piece as a whole, maybe it just isn’t for you!
And remember, criticism that doesn’t follow the MAPS is just SPAM!
Thank you for all the interaction and kindness on my last post!

I mean this in the kindest way possible, but if you want to draw OCs/do a lot of original work, you must accept that most people are not going to care about them. Like, at all. This is not a negative thing and is in fact the normal way of the world. If you want people to care about your stuff, you have to MAKE them care!

@sonilverweek day 5, 6, & 7 (Cosplay, Baking, Christmas) I decided to put all three days together
Day 1 | Day 2 & 3 | Day 4 | Day 5-7 (you're here)
Spotify wrapped is normally released on a November 30 or December 1 but this year it was released on November 29, the International Day of Solidarity with Palestinian People- a day which it was asked for people to increase their social media posts about Palestine to help call for a permanent ceasefire. Instead it is now being overshadowed by people posting about Spotify wrapped…
No fucking WAYYYYYY YOUTUBE CHANGED THEIR TOS TO AVOID PUNISHING SSSNIPERWOLF FOR DOXXING
Short Intro: An AU that basically follows the game's plot but some of the employees of Howling Hugs INC created an legal (not written on paper/CEO doesn't know) Support and Therapy Group due to the potential shady and illegal practices that the CEO of the company put their employees through it's basically "tell me, you're part of/ in a Union without telling me you're part of/in a Union"
The Rebellion and Support Group both hate the CEO of Howling Hugs Inc. however they both have different ideals for the future of the company and how to handle the CEO.
Kyle was invited to the Support Group due to the Daryl's "disappearances" who he feel guilty for the indecent after the events of last week unpaid overtime email
Everyone in the office is either Support Group, Rebellion, or non-member (Neutral) due to their own personal reasons and beliefs
The Rebellion members held meetings at night (10ish-1 am) while Support group meet in Evenings (6-9pm)
Due to the Support group being an anonymous group under the CEO's nose the members meet with false name/Identify and require to wear a blindfold luckily for Kyle the members think his wolf form is a costume/fursuit for extra identify protection that have low eye vision
Kyle is anxious about being part of the group at first due to the fact he doesn't want to hurt anyone in his wolf form and freak anyone out with his appearance, however due to the members wearing blindfolds it become sorta like training for him to not go into hulk mode (Exposure therapy in a way)
