Added 2024-10-25 19:23:06 +0000 UTCI blame Rostya for everything T.T Everyone in the books is kinda fucked up in their own right but Rostya, as sick as he likely was, absolutely started this chain of destruction for Rick and this poor baby deserved better </3
This is a scene set during very early times in Fiasco Elite (which is a timeline set right after the ending of Kostrov Traces) and it always makes me wanna sob T.T I don't wanna spoil the ending of TKT so I'm keeping it zipped but once the books are out - I'm hoping it'll make the horror of this scene a lot more clear
Oh the angst
BTW, total personal ramble, but I've gotten a minor strike on that sticker post from last week from the monsters that are in charge of Instagram algorithm :,D Nothing major, they just somehow concluded the blood circle is super extra not okay with them and pushed it down in feed which I can almost get behind, but I'm kind of pissed about how this is gonna affect the over all engagement
Tried to appeal that shit and everything but no luck hahha so I'm lowkey just hoping whatever shadowban I'm gonna get as a result of this doesn't last until the next week's post, but wtf hahhaha
It was just a red circle T.T I have OCD and stuff like this makes me paranoid, so I'm always extra careful for no reason, BUT NOT EVEN my superstitious ass could have predicted this would be an issue hahaha hoooooooly moly
Anyway, safe to say I'm gonna edit out every little piece of blood/weaponry that exists in any of the art for public posting going forward and only share that stuff in full here. I really have no clue as to why exactly this was a problem since I've seen accounts post much worse stuff and be fine but ah.
It sucks because I feel like I can just barely talk about the books properly out there since I have to thread such a thin line between what might or might not trigger the algorithm. Thankfully this story is long and has a bunch of things I can talk about that aren't necessarily dark, but there is a huge part of the plot that simply revolves around violence, abuse, mental health turmoils, etc. The core of the story is based in generational trauma and the effect of abuse on youngsters who grow up trying to break that cycle. And the bloody circle in the background, that might have also been a wine circle for all that they know mind you LMAO, is already too much.
It's just sad, but life keeps goin'. It isn't the first time something like this happened, so I believe we'll be just fine <3

I so agree 😭😭😭 baby Rick genuinely had a chance to have such a wonderful childhood if he just had a different dad and I HATE Rostya for it, he's the only one i don't feel the slightest bit bad for everything bad that came for him 😭 baby Rick deserved so much better 💔 BUT RIGHT??? And the circle really could have been anything, it's not even ON the characters like broo 😭 I've seen genuinely horrific shit on that app and it's just freely out there, accessable to the public. Same goes for tiktok, the guidelines are so arbitrary and randomly enforced that I'm just not even gonna try figuring where the line is anymore 😩 though, I have a feeling meta went through some shitty policy change over the past week 'cause I've seen a bunch of artists I follow get random strikes on totally random art, so who knows what's happening

2024-10-28 09:36:09 +0000 UTCNooo the poor babyy 🥺💔 Seriously, how messed up can someone be to do that to someone else, let alone a CHILD. I need to hop into the screen and go give innocent little baby Rick a hug and take him far away from the crooked monster Rostya is 😩😭 BUT BROOOO your post receiving a strike genuinely irritates me on a whole new level because I’ve seen far worse unsettling things on instagram that could potentially be triggering to someone, that aren’t censored and don’t have any warnings or anything like that, and apparently instagram thinks it’s fine? I just don’t get itttt ARGHH 🤬 And let’s not forget the “blood” in your post doesn’t necessarily have to be perceived as blood at all, it could’ve just been a plain red circle, or a red wine stain like you said. That’s just totally unfair. 😔

2024-10-28 03:24:22 +0000 UTCRight?!?! same bro, and at the very least I would hope a human would review the appeals because there ain't no way someone at insta actually looked at that drawing and was like "yup, that red circle - out of line" xD bizarre ahahha

2024-10-25 19:29:55 +0000 UTCInstagram is such a pain to deal with! It's weird what stuff they allow and don't allow on there. I miss the old version of instagram back in 2014-2015! Those were the good days of the app! Also this piece looks so good! I'm excited to see the finished art work!
