A lot of people will be starting art school for the first time this week, and I wanted to make a lil thread of things I wish I knew before starting that might be helpful during this exciting and frightening time. I had a VERY MIXED time in artschool but I do have tips!🧡
Learn to accept critique. The more you get, the less it'll sting. Crit will be a big part of your artschool experience AND your art career. Try to separate your own intentions and ego from your work when receiving crit and see things from their POV
Learn to give critique. The critique sandwich is a GOOD thing to learn. Remove your own ego when giving crit. If you feel yourself getting annoyed when ppl don't follow your advice, take a step back and recognise that it's your own ego making you feel that way, it's not on them.

This Autism Acceptance Month, I am begging you to stop QRTing shitty takes and putting them on the TL. Your dunks are not cathartic or funny, the thing that sticks is the hate.
I am so serious about this...... My main exposure to anti-autism hate is through other autistic people spreading it to me. QRTing utter shite with nothing to add other than '[omg lmfao look what this person thinks about us πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚]' is not helpful to me, to the community or to you
It's important to spread information, debunk myths and reclaim our agency and there are healthy and helpful ways to do that. I'm *all for* creating your own informative threads. Keep doing that!

Go through it now, while it's right in front of you. A short comic made up of three horizontal panels. In the fi
Facing difficult situations instead of running away... processing difficult emotions instead of shutting down and turning into a Grey Rock... These are hard things for me. It always feels like a lose-lose situation, where both options will end in misery, but it's not true.
Having things linger over me is worse. Tasks I haven't completed, deadlines I didn't meet, friendships I didn't maintain, grief and trauma I didn't process, the list goes on... All of those things that still hang over me make my life so much harder every day.

I don't know why it's so hard to accept help. People offering help to me has always made me run the other way. I've been trying to figure it out for the longest time and I think that for me, a huge part of it is control.
It feels weird to say 'control' because I think many of us have negative associations with the word, and with ''''control freaks''''. I think that for me it means that I want to be in control of my own mental health and trauma recovery, because I need to be able to rely on myself

If someone's creeping you out, you're allowed to just leave!! A stranger waves a little r...
I've struggled with this throughout my entire life, to varying degrees of seriousness. I always prioritise their feelings over mine, or worry that if I just leave or make a scene I'm going to become a traumatic experience for them, even if they were a creep to me first!
90% of the time, if I haven't just disengaged completely, things have escalated. Creeps take advantage of a willingness to discuss the situation & twist it against you so you feel obligated to continue the interaction. Holding out for the 10% of good faith people is Not Worth It
