@geabby68092 i got it fixed!! but it was very weird. i switched tabs and then my entire photopea tab shifted to the left, so i had no way of accessing the save features and all those little features on the left side of the screen. it was def a struggle tho </3

opened up this silly little app to hope you all are faring a little bit better than I have these past months and i apologize for the sudden disappearance <33  unfortunately, the 2nd half of this semester has turned brutal (silly schoolish stuff that also makes me lose my mind), so writing isn’t at the top of my priorities rn. I'll be writing when I can :) but I'm really hoping to at least update my Kyle Rayner fic by the end of the year — but anyway, Happy Holidays season to you all!        [hehe, and farewell to the vvsitos era <3 ]

I still find it odd how Jason Todd & Helena Bertinelli Fans (across all platforms) have been parading and applauding DC for firing GFM and scrapping the Red Hood series. I don’t condone any of GFM’s actions or her statements prior to her Bluesky post, but it shows the double standards DC Comics executives and their fans hold toward writers, [you could honestly extend this to beyond DC, but I’ll be focused on DC here]. DC was aware of GFM’s posts and proceeded to approach her with this pitch for a Red Hood series. They were aware of who they are, so this shouldn’t have been something unexpected for them. And honestly, considering how Kirk advocated against marginalized communities — they should not extend empathy toward him, not when Kirk has spoken out many times against them and continued to spew hatred toward those communities.      DC continues to employ writers such as Tom King, Jeph Loeb, and, meanwhile, you have fans who heavily scrutinize works from Gail Simone, Devin Grayson, GFM, but continue to praise Scott Lobdell, Chuck Dixon, Marv Wolfman, Karl Kesel, Phil Jimenez, and, honestly, so many other male writers. We tend to hold these female creators to impossibly perfect standards, but then proceed to turn around and praise male writers for the bare minimum. You cannot put down GFM without acknowledging the other bigoted and problematic DC writers.

@situayuriship it's all fairly new ... which also says a lot considering DC has never been this quick to cancel a series and ALSO reimburse retailers for the issue #1 (issue #1 had been for almost an entire day before they publicly announced its cancellation).

You should not be celebrating the fact DC fired GFM for their comment on Charlie Kirk and not their other problematic actions, simply because you disliked GFM’s approach for Red Hood and Huntress. There is a difference between disliking a writer for their ideas and their actions, and you should not be grouping the two together. Had DC truly listened to the fans, this wouldn’t have been an issue, but instead, they chose to pull the plug on her run and use her tweets as a scapegoat because they suddenly don’t condone this kind of behavior. Think of the message that this sends to queer, trans, and writers of color — you cannot speak out about these issues without there being some sort of consequence/repercussions.
