your tags on the studio heartbreak post are incorrect, they have never done nfts nor is there any evidence they have done so. they have actively said they dislike nfts. it's a harmful rumor about a collection of independent artists.

damn it's crazy how there's no proof about one of their members, lead director alicemaoart, doing nfts under a different account named alicedotxyz or the official studio heartbreak account making a statement that pretty much confirms these accusations were all real

screenshot 1 / screenshot 2 / screenshot 3 / screenshot 4 /

and not weird at all to see popheadz, the nft company this artist has worked with, constantly show up in any comments made against her

tweet 1 / tweet 2 (original qrt now deleted, sadly)

and then the artist herself posting these in instagram stories (obviously I can't link these since they're instagram stories and her instagram also seems to have been deleted?)

granted, the official statement released by the studio does mention "outdated comments by one of [their] directors" that "don't reflect her current views or efforts" - if the artist stopped making NFTs, good for her! people are allowed to grow and change their mind and be given the benefit of the doubt! if she's really stopped making NFTs, then I personally would fucking LOVE to support the studio because as filipino diaspora im fucking starving for content about my culture

the harassment she faced is definitely fucked up (considering all of her socials are blank, gone or private) and there IS something to be said about the harsh scrutiny LGTBQ+ and POC creators go through constantly. or example, Kitfox Games adding a warning in Boyfriend Dungeon for a toxic shitty stalker because people wouldn't stop complaining about it AND harassing the VA who provided the voice for said stalker. some of the hate studio heartbreak is getting DOES come from that shitty mindset and some criticisms come from ppl genuinely upset that. this artist was specifically doing nfts in secret bc she was fully aware of the backlash she would receive

but whether you want to separate her career from studio heartbreak or not, that's up to you - i think people who want to support this film (because HEY. WE FINALLY GET. CONTENT FOR US. LITERALLY CATERED TO US ABOUT PEOPLE LIKE US IN PLACES WE RECOGNIZE AND ALL. I GET IT) for whatever reason despite this nft stuff coming up are in the right to do so. and the people who don't want to support it because their lead director makes/used to make nfts in secret or for whatever other reason is also fair. personally i dropped out of supporting them after seeing the pics above

the official statement also apologizes for the lack of tact when these nfts started coming up, which is good! cause posting fish titties in an attempt to get ppl to forget the issue sure is. a fucking choice

no clue how to end this post, so hey have a nice day!

#i fucking despise nfts with all my life and thats the main reason im not supporting this project anymore #even if im. so fucking desperate for toxic filipino lesbians #but thats my personal choice. yall do yall! i rlly understand the giddy excitement from other filipinos #it rlly isnt just a good or bad situation. its just a situation that happened and wasnt tackled properly bc. this stuff rarely is #transparency wouldve been nice. the artist going 'yeah i did this. sorry about that' when the pics started coming up wouldve been good #but again. the harassment deffo didnt help
