#pinktober

[dearophelia]

as we approach October and Breast Cancer Awareness Month (which I will be referring to as Pinktober), undoubtedly many companies will be churning out limited edition pink variants of their products

I want you all to be aware that breast cancer has become a multi-billion (yes, billion with a b) dollar industry and that pinkwashing is very much a thing.

pinkwashing: a marketing tactic. the exploitation of breast cancer for profit or public relations. the act of supporting the breast cancer cause or promoting a pink ribbon product while actively producing, manufacturing, or selling products linked to the disease. (Pink is Not the Problem.org)

Pinkwashing is also when a company sells a pink-branded item (ribbon images are just a bonus 🙄) or service with the intent that you, the consumer, will in good faith assume that they’re making a donation to a breast cancer organization in exchange for that item/service, when in fact they don’t.

Which is, yknow, shitty! Nothing like preying on the sympathies of the public for the purposes of profit! Capitalism!

This is not to say not to buy any breast cancer branded items when they’re available, just do your research. If you can’t easily find any info on their donation campaign, it’s likely they don’t have one and 100% of your purchase will go toward that company.

The more you know!

Day 26's theme was "Chop Chop". The Genius Jester seemed like the obvious choice.

Here's day two Pinktober! Everyday I'm drawing my pinkest character (Angel) in a different famous pink outfit or as a pink character.

Today's look is Draculaura from Monster High.

He just got a spider staff in game too so I'm absolutely gonna use Drac's haunt couture look as inspiration for its new look once he's attuned to it >:3c

#the prompt is (if you didn't guess already) 'rush' #this is a bit late #but i had to catch up on some sleep #which i #(like every normal person) #do at the end of every month #as for the subpar artwork #i just thought that these two album covers reminded me of each other #🤷‍♂️ #nothing more profound than that I'm afraid #inktober? #pinktober #syd barrett #pink floyd #I have very mixed feelings regarding rush #none of them good #that was #of course #a joke #(saying this #I've had a rush song on repeat for 2 weeks and only just now realised it was in fact a song by rush)

Day 30's theme was cryptically "______ is not my God". When I told this to my husband, his first suggestion was the Moon Presence. Turns out it's pretty hard to draw...
