about a line group chat
Hey, I'm a pretty much a broke college student but considering how much I read manga for free I want to seriously try and support at least a few of my favorites authors. Especially BL authors because I know it is very hard for them.
For more well known manga authors I know I can buy available merch, manga volumes, or support their patreons if they have it. However for more obscure BL authors I question how legit sites like Lezhin are in actually getting money to them, or if most of the profit goes to Lezhin. I heard the authors are treated poorly and make only a small margin of the profit so I don't want to support that but at the same time I feel guilty getting their hard work for free.
Is Lezhin a good way to support them? If it is, then I will buy from there and just read here because this site has faster updates. But if it isn't then I don't want to waste my money there and I'll gladly take other suggestions.
Thanks guys.

Personally, when I know the restaurant pays their waiters/ waitresses the general minimum wage (above $8.25), then I don't tip (like California). Unless they gave great service, which is when I'll definitely tip.
But other than that, I don't see the point since they're already being paid to do their job. When I worked at an animal hospital, I was paid minimum wage ($8.25) as a vet tech. I always did my best to appease the patients/clients, and made sure they were happy and comfortable with my service. I went beyond my expected duties, which I didn't have to do and wasn't being paid extra for it. I did that to help as much as I can. I figured it was the same in restaurants.
What do you guys do?

about thinking about bl
Been pondering this thing for a while, but haven't voiced it anywhere, because only thinking about it makes me feel like a complete degenerate. Decided to post it here since I figured this site is filled with degenerates anyway- (sorry about that)
I’ve noticed a pattern with my BL media consumption… with both manga and drama shows. We all know about the top and bottom dynamics (or wife and husband in Asian, especially Thai bl dramas), where one part of the BL pair takes the typical “girl” role, while the other one is the masculine one. I often find myself wishing that the roles were swapped… for example in the drama “Together With Me: The Series”, I kinda wished Korn and Knock swapped roles. I have dropped many manga series because of this ^^; (The most recent one was “Hoshi to Harinezumi”)
It differs if I wished the characters swapped places entirely, personality and all, or if I just wished they swapped *cough* places in bed -
WITH DRAMAS YOU DON’T SEE ANYTHING ANYWAY BUT I WOULD JUST LIKE TO KNOW, OK, JUST FOR MY OWN SATISFACTION O _ O (that came out wrong)
But I feel really bad about it when it’s a drama series because… there are real actors, and even if these are my own personal thoughts, I feel like I am projecting a (dirty, **none of my damn business**) role onto this actor based on their appearance. Even though they don’t know about it and it’s just my thought, I feel like it’s wrong…
With manga, manhua, manhwa, I feel like it shouldn’t matter (unless it’s an important plot point), **why am I so damn picky about these things??**
It’s not that important to the story anyways, but unless everything is exactly like I want it my body just physically rejects the series and I can’t read it. I feel like it’s kinda dumb and I’m missing out on things because of this, so yeah
I don’t want to be one of those fujoshis that is “lusting after yaoi boys but doesn’t care about LGBTQ people whatsoever”, and I know the whole wife/husband, seme/uke thing is not accurate to real life. This is another reason why I feel bad about all this, because in the end “iT sHoUldN’t mAtTeR, iT’s nOt ReAl aNd hOnEstLy thE tRoPe iS kiNdA pRoBleMaTic”. I want gay people to have accurate representation in media, but I’m also a fujoshi who reads yaoi. I’M ALSO ASEXUAL, WHY AM I HERE AND WHY DO I CARE SO MUCH??
Because this is in the questions secion, I would like to hear your thoughts on this^^;
Or just, if you do this or not or if it’s just me…

I am not sure if this is the right site to ask for this. But i am overwhelmed for all the different experiencies or lifes you all have to carry and have shared with us in this app, so i was looking for someone who can emphatize with mine and feel like talking about them with me.
If anyone is struggling or have already done with the uncertainty of his/her sexuality, genre, deprivation of self care and love, a neccesity of closure that drain all your relationships, giving up your dreams for the sake of a more stable life, study a degree or get a job you do not feel passionate for etc., send me a message pls.
Dont misread please. I am not looking for a psichologist in you, i do not want an advice for my worries. I just would like to have someone who could understand my struggles and we could encourage each other to grow over this toguether.
Thank u so much (๑•ㅂ•)و✧

about instagram friends
I was wondering if anyone here is interested in creating a support group of small IG artists so we can share each other's art, do art trades, share art challenges and tag each others in art chains !(◕︿◕✿) I'm a very small artist and I don't have any close artsy friends on instagram to do all of that ╥﹏╥
I'll be very happy to do some mutual support, and if it's the same for you then message me on Ig : @lumi.senpai ! I'll also try to create a group chat (never done that (^^ゞ) ) !

Hey guys!! I just wanted to start a thread, and conversation about how we support authors as a community, how we do it individually, monetarily, and how those methods affect and shape our community! Please reply and comment your ideas <3 Thanks for stopping by!
So, I wanted to spark a conversation about this (Not a debate, please guys. Civility) because some of my favorite series have been dropped and picked up, been debated on, shared and privated, etc! This is not to call any certain ones out, of course not! I do want to share, however, how and why I wanted to start this conversation :)
Hidoku Shinaide was dropped by nnnscans very recently. It broke my heart, TREMENDOUSLY, and I was very conflicted over their reasoning. They wanted to support sensei in their work and to stop producing sensei's work for free, when it is a licensed product. Meaning, they are steering away and using sensei's content in ways that diminish the support sensei could be getting.
I was very conflicted because I knew the rationality of it, I supported it! But ultimately, I realized I was really bummed because it was no longer free and at the tip of my fingertips. (Not sure if this is similar to you guys' and your favorites, but if so please share). And realizing this, it got me thinking about how I treated creators, their works, falling into consumerism, and all the stolen content we're consuming. It made me want to start holding myself accountable, start a conversation about how we can better support our creators and at the same time still consume these beautiful content! <3
I definitely will never be able to afford the MASSES I've already read. And I am sorry I could never give the creators the support they would have gained from this. However, I TRULY want to start holding myself accountable for undermining their hard work. And maybe if enough of us begin to hold ourselves accountable, we can better support our creators AND boost our community in ways we've never realized we needed!
Can we find ways to support them in even little amounts? Can we find ways to guide traction back to them? Can we engage in conversations of holding ourselves and each other accountable for how we are affecting this community? I honestly hope we can, and maybe our actions can change our community positively step by step <3
I can't wait to hear from you guys. Thank you to anyone who read this far <3 I've just become so disheartened and quite 'alone' in what seems to be a long uphill path.
tldr: My favorite series was dropped and I realized I was mainly upset over the idea of no longer getting it for free. It disheartened me to realize how easily I fell into the normalization of free content. And now, I really want to start holding myself accountable. Maybe, some of you will join me? :) Hope to hear from you guys <3
[Oof, long post. Thanks to those for sticking it out (￣∇￣")]
