I'm the Daijou-Daijin of cringe
I learned about it through Undertale. When Undertale was popular, I was part of the fanbase and wanted to discover similar games, so I researched its influences. This lead to discovering Uboa, and etc.
I'm still afraid of them
Panic

Although I don't think it's something from the game, the guest book on the silvery tablecloth, against those walls, gives the exact vibes of a scene from Ib but in real life. Whoever designed this knew what they were doing!
I went to the Ib exhibition!!! Here’s some pictures!!!! I couldn’t include everything because tumblr only allows 10 images on mobile only which is a bummer
It was really cool!! Some of the paintings actually moved, and there was a section where we were given VR headsets and got to experience the doll room scene with Garry and the key which was very neat!! Also Garry’s acrylic stand at the gift shop was totally sold out LOL
Part 2 of the exhibition
"currently unfeasible in a practical sense"
I think this kind of passive acceptance is bad for you both politically and creatively
But I agree that we can't wait for a new society
We must abolish copyright instantly because ownership of ideas is unethical and ideas should belong to everyone equally. We artists don't earn them through hard work, they just came to us arbitrarily like random radiation from heaven and we should share them

This is absolutely a correct statement if it was just about personal remixes, but the context here is about businesses using other people's work without permission. It has nothing to do with whether or not you're allowed to remix it yourself. If a company has the means to use someone's work in a for-profit venture, then they have the means to pay someone for the product of their labour. These companies don't even use other people's IP in a novel way that bends IP law to create something that contributes to culture; the loss of culture if sellers of Redbubble t-shirts couldn't just take pictures from the internet and sell them for 40 bucks anymore would be negligible compared to, say, losing Lasgna Cat alone would be.
its already illegal for redbubble sellers to do that though. thats already not allowed. like thats already literally a copyright violation under current copyright law and guess what: because random people posting their fanart online don't have the money to afford a corporate lawyer, it just keeps happening and will keep happening, because copyright law never has and never will defended anyone but the wealthy. like this fantasy of your art as a Small Artist being protected by copyright law is just that, a fantasy, it doesn't happen and will never happen. you are completely detached from reality!
I think if you clear away all the cultural bias/normalization caused by living under copyright you can see that legally forcing someone to not write about other peoples' fictional characters is a violation of artistic freedom on the same level as state censorship

Artistic freedom is part of your mental autonomy, that you have the right to communicate with people in the way you feel you need to, you can express your thoughts/feelings etc. you can manipulate ideas, that's a real freedom
property rights are exclusively designed to control people and enforce economic inequality and when applied to creative concepts this is extra true, I would even consider it a kind of emotional/psychological violence because it stops people from communicating with each other
fanfic/meme images exist in an unenforced niche, they are not legal under copyright

it's just an endless cycle of evil and malice against alienated ppl
We gotta put "not like other girls" up on a shelf until people can stop using it to disparage people expressing genuine social alienation I'm so fucking serious
