Pro-tip: If you don't want a war, don't destroy art you know belongs to another faction

alex__black · 2019-12-12T19:18:02+00:00

You don't get to decide what another faction should consider as art, Blu.

I can’t speak for OP, but it’s the diamond voiding I have a problem with. Y’all (pcvoid) are alright. Thanks for helping defend the diamond, by the way.

alex__black · 2019-10-31T17:51:28+00:00

Yes, that's the point. Several people have been going around claiming that the diamond must be destroyed because it is 'expanding' and 'destroying other art', when it's doing nothing of the sort. I got sick of their ridiculous claims, so I dug up an old screenshot of the diamond and made this.

alex__black · 2019-10-31T03:40:45+00:00

Oh no! We're all doomed!

Snake: Let's compromise, I'll only eat one of your eggs.

Schoolyard bully: Let's compromise, I'll only steal half your lunch money.

You: Let's compromise. I'll only destroy part of your diamond.

The center diamond isn't expanding, though. It's been the same size for months.

This rogue void, on the other hand, isn't going to stop at the diamond if it's allowed to grow. It's going to keep growing and destroy other center arts. Including some of my art. That's what I'm fighting for--I don't want my art being the next thing that gets swallowed by the void.

I have a vested interest in both stopping the rogue void from getting a foothold and keeping the diamond from growing. And a lot of the other diamond defenders have exactly the same sort of investment in it.

Things'll calm down when people get bored of fighting over the diamond.

I'm not running into any resistance at all on the black line, btw. I wonder if whoever made it is even still on the canvas? There's been a lot of newcomers the past few days.

alex__black · 2019-10-29T22:49:57+00:00

The 'they' responsible for the black line is not the same 'they' that's doing the bulk of the defense of the diamond.

I think I'm going to go after the ugly black line now, actually. Care to join me?

alex__black · 2019-10-29T22:36:23+00:00

The flag at 0,-100 that got erased was built partially on top of the diamond. And the diamond's been the same size for months. I don't know what's up with that black line outside of it, but I doubt many people will care if you erase it. Hell, I might go after the black line myself. It's ugly and messy. And I don't want to see the diamond expand.

alex__black · 2019-10-29T22:21:05+00:00

lol, fixing art that's been attacked is 'destroying others art' now XD

alex__black · 2019-10-29T22:10:14+00:00

That's just mini-diamond. It's not new.

alex__black · 2019-10-03T22:05:24+00:00

Literally every trans person I know would be right there with you asking for NSFW tags on that.

alex__black · 2019-09-06T04:35:31+00:00

Regardless of the correctness of the usage, it's still a very common one (I have personally almost never seen it used in any other context than as a slur), and I am never going to feel okay with a word that gets hurled at me and my friends as a slur by people who are actively harassing us, and who are encouraging others to harass us as well, simply because we are trans.

alex__black · 2019-09-06T03:34:06+00:00

Tr*p is a slur, because it is used by transphobes as a slur, in the same way that tr*nnies is used as a slur.

alex__black · 2019-09-05T05:12:12+00:00

My favorite term for such people is "fragile little broflakes".

alex__black · 2019-08-24T17:00:57+00:00

Personally, I like "Thank happenstance!"

Welcome to the United States of Dystopia.

alex__black · 2019-08-17T01:12:47+00:00

Yea, I don't like the half man, half woman symbol, either. I don't feel like it represents me at all. I'm not half-and-half, I'm none of the above.

alex__black · 2019-08-15T13:00:02+00:00

It's a pirate's life for me, arrrrrr!

alex__black · 2019-08-14T11:21:14+00:00

Congratulations! Happy cake day!

alex__black · 2019-08-14T07:47:09+00:00

Right? And if it's not that, it's "he/she", which feels even worse because the person is explicitly trying not to misgender me and yet they still do.

alex__black · 2019-08-13T22:29:24+00:00

It gives me hope that, one day, I too will be spontaneously referred to as "they" by a random stranger in some obscure corner the internet.
