hey chat, does anyone have the original source for this image? oldest source i could find is an incredibly compressed r/egg_irl post, which is clearly not the original
@ixhby Reddit user u/gardelucina
claims under this post and this post to have commissioned it from Twitter user @PompomNotes
(who also has a Bluesky and Instagram presence)
I can’t find the original source where the commissioner would have posted it. and PompomNotes doesn’t seem to post commissions themselves, and it’s up to the commissioner whether to credit them or not (I think?), and in this post they even forbid attribution for NSFW commissions.
the commissioner seems to be on fedi maybe? @gardelucina@aethy.com (profile link). they posted twice in September 2024 and never before or again so they will likely never see this but if they do ever check that account, they may be able to provide more insight.
alternatively, they are still active on Reddit and they link to a discord profile. I’m not invested enough in this to add them on either platform to ask further questions, but DMs through one of those channels are the most likely way to find the original source where this image was first posted publicly on the internet. assuming they actually did commission the work, that is. there’s no reason to doubt that claim but also no evidence to back it up.
