Hey You! Yeah, You!

Hey you! Yeah, you!

The person about to leave a critical comment on someone else’s creation!

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!

First, does it come from a place of Mutual Respect?

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?

Is it the Appropriate Forum?

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?

Do you have Permission?

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!

Is it Specific?

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!

If you answered “no” to any of these questions, put down the keyboard and do something else! Your criticism is probably bad!

And remember, criticism that doesn’t follow the MAPS is just SPAM!

Shout out to all the Black ppl that can no longer participate directly in the fandom they love because of the stresses of racism 👍🏾 you contain multitudes of value and I'm sorry that the color of your skin and the power of your voice makes people not want to acknowledge that.

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!

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…

Pack Therapy (An The WereCleaner Group Therapy AU) Notes

Warning for Cannon in-game spoilers

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)
