it genuinely makes me sad and kinda upset when someone purges all their old art off the internet like. barring harmful content what if someone liked that. What if someone would have. And now nobody will ever know and it’s just gone. even people’s old invader zim askblogs or whatever getting deleted feels like a micro alexandria to me and that’s just something I made up. I wasn’t even thinking of a specific one it just stresses me out. Is this the autism I don’t get why nobody else seems to freak internally abt it like I do. I see artists whose blogs I’ve never even looked at go like “man so glad I deleted all my old stuff it’s so clean” or saying they throw out art from when they were kids I’m like. how are you not hurling. How is that not distressing that is literally your tree rings why would you do that. I want to see what’s out there. people want to see it I promise someone out there likes it
…don’t they??? Does everyone get quietly irrationally upset by this as me, or is this just hyperfixation/autism/some amalgam of the two. I’m not a hoarder or obsessive compulsive or anything like that so i wonder..
Anyways. reblog if you had a favorite amateur youtube animator in your childhood whose channel got nuked without a trace one day that you still think about.
