We all know what erectile dysfunction is but literally no one is ever taught what vaginismus is and it can cause people to feel extremely lost, broken, and cause people to take their own lives. Raise. Awareness.

Hi, my friends—this is a really serious post and I need your help. 💗 I’m not the only person being stolen from, and I don’t want the next person to be you.

⚠️ ART THIEF ⚠️

“Taehakimdesigns” is stealing mine and other artists’ work. Even selling some of their designs.

Here is an extensive document created by Blue.journalist_ accounting the thief’s history. This contains other artists’s testimonies and further proof.

As for my side of the story, Taeha blocked me within minutes after I politely messaged them on TikTok to remove my artwork.

Hi, My Friends—this Is A Really Serious Post And I Need Your Help. 💗 I’m Not The Only Person Being

They are not only claiming the artwork as their own—they are actively tracing, coloring, and removing all of my watermarks from my original images (as they’ve done to other artists).

Here’s an example:

Hi, My Friends—this Is A Really Serious Post And I Need Your Help. 💗 I’m Not The Only Person Being
Hi, My Friends—this Is A Really Serious Post And I Need Your Help. 💗 I’m Not The Only Person Being

They also respond to comments as if they’re the one who created the piece:

Hi, My Friends—this Is A Really Serious Post And I Need Your Help. 💗 I’m Not The Only Person Being
Hi, My Friends—this Is A Really Serious Post And I Need Your Help. 💗 I’m Not The Only Person Being

After I confronted them and they blocked me, they proceeded to post MORE STOLEN ARTWORK. Even going so far as to falsely show their layers to “prove” they made it:

(I was able to see using an alt account)

And I’m not the only one.

Taehakimdesigns, who also went by taeha_kim_illustrations, has stolen other artists’ works.

@/Blue.journalist has an entire highlight on their Instagram of their past behavior. They’ve also been so kind to create a Google Doc outlining every encounter they’ve had with Taeha.

This document is incredibly important, as it describes what Taeha has been doing—and continues to do. They not only steal artwork; they sell them, falsely take commissions with them, and more.

Like all artists, I pour so much love into all of my art; I pour pieces of myself into my art, regardless of whether they’re silly or serious in tone. Which is why it breaks my heart that they’re not only stealing and selling stolen work, but treating others who call them out with blatant disrespect.

💗 I would appreciate it so much if you could help me report their account—even spreading the word helps. 💗

I’m only one of the artists they’ve stolen work from. I don’t want them taking from anyone else.

Announcement

Just wanna mention, for those who follow me, or used to maybe follow me for my Steven Universe AU once upon a time, I made a new blog for it so I decided, to make things more neater, Ima post all the pages and stuff for it here @stevenuniversereflections Also wanna mention that I'm going to try really hard to work on it again, here and there so Look out for it! What is Steven Universe Reflections you may ask?

Synopsis:

The story takes place sometime after SU the movie and either before SU Future or during. (Also half running as also a theory what SU Future might be about but mainly this is just for fun) Jasper, Eyeball and Aquamarine are running their own rebel group along with a couple other gems who hate Era 3 and basically want things to the way they used to, and are having problems accustoming to the new peacetime era. After somehow getting news about Spinel and what she did on Earth, the trio come up with a plan to somehow get Spinel onto their side, and help them beat the Crystal Gems and Steven once and for all. Jasper however, is not entirely convinced Spinel has the power needed and corners her one day when she leaves the Diamond Palace to check out homeworld and see how much the planet had changed since she last saw it 6,000 years ago.... ((it was also very loosely based on a post that @celestialalpacaron made ages ago and the blorbo underneath the art is what inspired this comic from what I do remember when I started this thing back in 2019, and then it has since kinda grown into it's own thing, but still semi takes inspiration from her thing sorta-))

hi. reminder/psa for ADHD rivulet.

[Image ID: a shaded blue text that says reminder/psa for "ADHD rivulet" on a white screen, with rivulet, a blue slugcat with rose colored fins below it and a humanized version of that character to the right. /end ID]

i recently had a discussion about headcanoning rivulet with ADHD. we discussed about how most portrayals of it are.... Terrible. lets talk about that.

"what do you mean?"

rivulet is often seen as the "ADHD slugcat" however. most of the portrayals that ive seen of rivulet having ADHD is because theyre an "energetic/speedy/hyper slugcat" or have "big eyes that looks neurodivergent" and thats all the ADHD trait that rivulet has. in which both of these reasons are just straight up terrible.

"why is this terrible?"

this portrayal of a speedy slugcat having ADHD just because theyre energetic/hyper is stereotypical. its harmful and doesnt actually show what ADHD is. there are more to ADHD than just being really hyper and impulsive. some of the stuff ive seen even infantilizes rivulet to an "owo cute hyperactive slugcat" which is gross!

"how can i make my ADHD rivulet better?"

first off, ADHD is actually a really overwhelming disorder. it can make you extremely sensitive to things whether it be touch, sound, texture, taste etc.

it can make you have sensory overload. you can feel overstimulated because of too many things! but you can also be understimulated when theres not much stuff happening. understimulation is NOT just boredom. it can leave you irritated for hours on end, and feeling unsatisifed with the things you do. and sometimes even feeling hopeless.

your emotions with ADHD are way worse too. theyre usually more sensitive and hard to control, rapidly changing and hard to predict. and with the already overwhelming issues from the previous point, yeah, its not great.

it can make your thoughts race or blank out, which makes it almost impossible to focus. it leaves you feeling frustrated because you are unable to finish your current task, even if it seems easy, like cleaning the dishes or making the bed. they are extremely overwhelming for a pw/ADHD. again, with all of the sensory issues mentioned.

ADHD also makes you very forgetful and prone to misremember even the most important things, such as meetings, work to do, etc etc.

and of course, hyperactivity. this also just sucks because you are unable to control yourself during bursts of hyperactivities and it makes you exhausted right after it happens. you might also potentially hurt yourself because being hyper can make you impulsive and do risky things.

plus so many more! ADHD has so many issues with it that i just urge you to research about it more before headcanoning rivulet as a slugcat with ADHD. (or any character with ADHD really.) but these are the main issues that me and the people i know w/ADHD has experienced.

im not saying that its wrong to have your rivulet as energetic/hyper/silly or with ADHD in general of course, no no no!, in fact its completely fine! but just please keep in mind when you are explictedly stating that your rivulet has adhd, dont give them only the hyperactivity trait and nothing else. dont call an energetic rivulet an "ADHD slugcat" just because its.....energetic. dont make ADHD this cutesy disorder that makes you excited and silly, because in reality, its really not.

thank you for listening to me ramble. its something thats been bothering me for a bit.

You know I have no idea how this site works thinking about it.

REMINDER TO THE TWITTER REGUGEES THAT TUMBLR IS AN INTERACTIVE SITE.

See how your dashboard is covered in posts? Yeah, that's because people reblogged them. Reblog posts. Reblog artwork and gifsets and text posts. If you like a post, reblog it.

"Oh but I'm nervous about social interaction" reblogging isn't social interaction. It's not. It's adding things to a virtual scrapbook by yeeting the additions into a swirling vortex. No interaction necessary. Someone makes a post you like, you reblog it, that's it. Job done. Zero interaction, but a post has made it one step further in finding its way to people that might enjoy it.

Reblog stuff. For fucks sake.

Thank GOD I stopped being active in the servers he was in with me. Don't ever forget that "No" is always a full sentence. Please reach out to someone if an individual is being inappropriate online, especially if you or another person is a minor.

PLEASE READ!!!

TW: Grooming, sexually charged messages

Snow SDA/Shadow The Dark Angel/Dark Angel Dubs has been actively engaging in predatory behavior with numerous minors. He has also (until today) been actively dating a 15-year-old. She reached out to me regarding their relationship and has since cut contact, but this individual is a danger to all minors and NEEDS to be blacklisted from the fandom. Evidence below the cut.

X (formerly Twitter)

Everything we know so far is outlined in this thread, which originally came from Beni. After receiving more information, I have elaborated with evidence of my own.

He even had the AUDACITY to post the most half-assed, nothingburger of an apology I've ever seen.

Here are several of his accounts, PLEASE block this man and warn others of his behavior. Main: https://x.com/SnowSDA319 Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@darkangeldubsofficial/videos

Some quick tips to spotting accounts that are pretending to be a Palestinian needing mutual aid. Please keep in mind that not all of them are scam accounts, and that some may legitimate blogs who just aren’t too knowledgeable on how tumblr works. This guide is based around what I go by when checking certain blogs and usually it’s a quick giveaway the blog is a scam.

1. You was sent the ask as someone who regularly shares Palestine related content such as regular news updates of posts by other Palestinians who are regularly giving updates. You may also get these asks from sharing a popular post that is from the Palestine tag. If you post often about Palestine, you will always start getting these asks. These askers don’t care if you state don’t send the asks. They will anyway. Unfortunately minors also get sent asks.

2. The ask has odd formatting such as having odd quotation marks in it or unusual formatting that may indicate it’s been edited and copied from somewhere else. Often the ask is the same thing as the post itself minus a link to a donation site. These asks rarely change so searching it should pull up if it’s been sent to other bloggers and sometimes the asks are edited only to add new phrases to them in time.

3. The account is almost always a few days old or a week old or long depending on how often they have sent asks. Usually some may even be an hour old and reusing a familiar pfp/ask.

4. The blog has a few Palestine related posts or posts from random tags reblogged to pad out length and then no more. They will have no original posts besides the pinned post while occasionally answering asks that they may have received but otherwise nothing else and no further updates given either.

5. They may have a Linktree link that is called “GoFundMe” as if indicating they have a GoFundMe there. However, they don’t. When clicked on, the Linktree actually goes to a PayPal account whose name may not even match the one their supposed name is. They’ll say it’s a friend, but it’s just the same person not someone else. You’ll see this same name across multiple accounts after a while usually giving away it’s not legitimate even under a different theme.

6. The text used by the blogs are often real stories stolen from legitimate fundraisers and searching parts of it in your preferred search engine should pull up the sources. These sources make no mention of a tumblr account either or don’t have the PayPal account associated with them in the info. Scammers often impersonate a real person in need and will ignore you if you show them the source they copied from.

7. Legitimate Palestinians often link to their own GoFundMe posts that their friends have set up or post links to other social platforms they are found on. They will regularly post updates when possible, post sources to support them when necessary, and also generally have some method of verifying their legitimacy. They may often share links to support others as well or give links to charities that have been shown as reliable. They will have more original posts than just a single pinned one and regularly speak to other tumblr accounts beyond just an ask. Please don’t bother them with asks about possible scam accounts. There are many guides out there that can do that for you if you search. You may find verified fundraisers too.

8. Scammers don’t know anything about Palestine and will often have trouble once you ask them anything beyond the mutual aid post. They don’t know the languages decently and you can tell it pretty easily if you’re one who uses it regularly. Whatever the scammers use is often just copied off the site they got the post from. Sometimes the text is just reused from past scams such as asking for insulin that doesn’t last long.

9. These scammers can and will use names stolen off real Palestinians to look more legitimate and trustworthy. They change names constantly once one of their PayPal accounts is shut down.

10. If you do see a GoFundMe link on a blog, don’t immediately assume it’s a scam just because it’s a relatively new account. Check the post notes to see if anyone’s verified the account yet or wait a bit as it takes time. You likely can search around to see if anyone’s posted anything where the blog has been vetted by others. You may also see if the GoFundMe is referred to on other socials or on lists that compile verified and vetted fundraisers.

Please don’t let these scams deter you from sending support where it needs to go. Even if you can’t donate personally, there are other ways to help. If you are sending money, please make sure that it’s going to where it’s needed and the place it’s sent has been verified accordingly. If you find a blog is a scammer, and have been able to prove it, please make sure to alert anyone sharing the post and report the account.

I am Amira, the breadwinner for my family after my father's death. We were forced to flee to the southern part of Gaza after the war intensified. Our home, my university, and my workplace were bombed😢.

We are now in desperate need to escape this danger and continue my dream and educational and professional journey💔. I kindly ask you to donate or share the campaign link. Your support can save our lives and give us a chance to live in peace🍉.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart🙏.

I'm sorry to hear that, madame...

For everybody unaware; you can read Amira's story and contribute mutual aid at her GoFundMe link here

her campaign is almost at 80% of its goal and has been vetted and verified (scroll down for corresponding links) by several users including @nabulsi who is one of the admins of this master doc of fundraisers.

Every little bit helps, and if you can't help financially, there are other ways you can contribute to the Palestinian cause, such as:

sign petitions and contact the relevant authorities;

boycott;

educate yourself and others;

some advice if you're a minor part one + two;

even more ways you can help + a lot more resources here;

and very importantly, share and spread the word.

As for you, Amira, I may not know you personally but I feel that doing this is important. Peace to you! 🖤🤍♥💚

I don’t want to be alarming, but things could get really bad really fast. OTW shared this today on Twitter, and I'm a bit worried about it 😅

Ao3 is a non-profit organisation. If they have to start paying taxes, I have no idea what will happen.

People will tell you that emotional abuse isn’t real and what you’re dealing with isn’t that big a deal and you’re just exaggerating, but let me tell you something.

If you’ve ever been wary of everyone you know, even people you trust, because you’re expecting them to get angry with you over literally anything, make fun of you, or start making threats, something’s wrong.

If you’ve ever had to plan things in anticipation of a potential tantrum that you fear will be taken out on you, something’s wrong.

If you succumb to someone’s demands because you’re never sure if their threats are empty or legit and you just want to play it on the safe side, something’s wrong.

If you find yourself jumping at smaller noises in anticipation that they’re a warning sign for a tantrum, something’s wrong.

If you hide things - especially things that make you happy - because you’re so afraid that they’ll make fun of you for liking them, scold you for liking something they don’t, take them away, destroy them, or that they’ll defile them and ruin that love you have for them, something’s wrong.

If you find yourself being silent in the face of mild disagreements or thinly-veiled insults, rather than standing up for yourself because you just don’t want to start an argument and make things worse, something’s wrong.

If that very lack of standing up for yourself eventually leads to you never offering your opinion in any sort of discussion out of fear of ridicule or being scolded because that’s what you’re so used to, something’s wrong.

If you end up spending a lot of your time in your room keeping to yourself and keeping any trip outside of your room to an absolute minimum because you don’t want to risk putting one toe out of line and setting off a tantrum, yet you’re also aware that hiding out will also cause an issue and you’re probably just minimizing the risk instead of erasing it entirely, something’s wrong.

If you ever habitually glance outside the window to keep watch for your supposed abuser’s car to return from their work, errand or trip, and then heading to your room or other hiding place to keep out of their way, erasing any obvious signs that you’ve been out and about in the rest of your living space, something’s wrong.

If one of your greatest fantasies involves not a dream career or winning the lottery but instead an escape plan succeeding, something’s wrong.

If you could basically summarize your life as living in constant, subtle fear, Something. Is. Wrong.

Emotional abuse is very, very real, and it has lasting consequences that can affect people’s relationships, their jobs, and their lives all-around.

Don’t you dare tell me it isn’t real.
