I met the first no-poo poo millenial.jpg tumblr-prime person recently. We hit it off because we both enjoyed Tim and Eric but they ended up being 100% loving insufferable and embarassing to take into public. They had a severe drinking problem yet lamented how they couldn't afford internet and lived in a shithole apartment and basically blamed society for everyone's problems and did that faux-intellectual thing where they talked poo poo on Bernie Sanders because THE WHOLE SYSTEM IS TRASH!! also they admitted to whoring themselves out to get hard drugs welp there's my millenial story gbs thanks for reading

quote:

A couple of weeks ago, Jean Francois Painchaud was just another Canadian animator � working for the PBS kids show Wild Kratts by day, making sexually explicit GIFs by night. Little did he know, when he sat in front of his computer at 10AM last Monday, that things were going to change.

Jean Francois had been posting his erotic art on social networks under the alias Phazed for about two years without really getting anywhere. But on that day, Facebook decided to ban several of his illustrations at once; Suddenly, his Tumblr, Instagram and Facebook accounts welcomed more than 45,000 new followers. Jean Francois was finally breaking through.

Your work became viral after it was banned on Facebook. Did Facebook inadvertently do you a favour?
In a way, yes. Soon after I started posting my art online, I found out that there are people out there who are very sensitive when it comes to the female body. Some get particularly upset when they see a nipple. No matter how much I censor my work, I still get reported. It�s ridiculous.

So, whenever they take down my art or censor me, I make a big deal out of it, hoping that we might be able to change this culture of incessant censoring over time. That�s the main thing I learned from practising Judo � to use whatever people throw at me, against them.

How did you start working with GIFs?
I studied game development for a year, then animation for another year and then conceptual art for one more year. I never finished any of those degrees � I just wanted to learn as much as possible, which usually happens in the first year or so. One day, I landed on some random video on Youtube, that showed you how to do animations using Photoshop. I felt like giving it a shot and soon realised it was a lot of fun, and that it also added a lot of life to a drawing.

How did mushrooms affect your work?
Mushrooms didn�t only help my art develop; they changed my entire life. Using mushrooms helped me overcome my depression, my insecurities and my anxiety. Most of that anxiety came from negative experiences with my father and being bullied at school.

Before I found shrooms, I was making art to improve my skills. It was as if I was trying to impress myself or show off. But what�s the point of sharpening your tools, if you�re never going to build something of your own?

Sex and psychedelia seem to be your main subjects. What�s the connection between the two, for you?
Sex and psychedelics have been very beautiful and inspiring experiences in my life � that�s the connection. I feel that both psychedelics and sex can help you transcend your ego and tap into a purer state of being � of living in the moment.

I mean yeah you're right that a lot of people are way too prude and afraid to talk about human sexuality in a healthy manner, but doing mushrooms, drawing people loving, and then Photoshop-ing color filters over it does not mean you are leading that charge. In fact you're probably just making it more difficult for the people who are trying to have a constructive dialogue about it. Also good job linking your real name and current employer to this hobby, have fun losing your job.

I guess this isn't explicitly linked to millennials, but it's definitely a millennial thing. Also the woman who posted this was a classmate of mine from college who now seemingly spends her life doing drugs, going to raves and hiking around Denver, which admittedly sounds like a sweet gig if you can get it.

That was a sudden and unwelcome turnabout. I was prepared to side with the annoying girl until I saw the sasquatch drumsticks.

The internet bullied yet another person to suicide in the name of justice for the apparent crime (if I'm reading the links right) of drawing a young chubby cartoon boy as skinny.
