Know what I’m salty about?
In all my art classes, I was never taught HOW to use the various tools of art.
Like yes, form, and shape and space and color theory and figure drawing is important, but so is KNOWING what different tools do.
I’m 29 and I JUST learned this past month that India Ink is fucking waterproof when it dries. Why is this important? Because I can line something in India Ink and then go over it with watercolors. And that has CHANGED the ENTIRE way I art and the ease I can create with.
tldr: Art Teachers: teach your students what different tools do. PLEASE.

Friendly reminder that LGBTQ+, Queer, and LGBT+ are the preferred terms for the community (x).
Friendly reminder that Queer is approved by 72.9% of the people, and the groups who don’t prefer it’s use as an umbrella term are straight people, exclusionists, transmeds, truscums, sex-negative people, and sex work critical people (x).
Friendly reminder that aros and aces are excluded only 9.2% / 8.1% of the time respectively while being included  78.9% / 81.2% of the time (x)
Friendly reminder that exclusionists are in the minority and aro/ace people are included in the LGBTQ+ community by the people within the community.

RB if you think CD drives in computers are not obsolete, but in fact still necessary, despite being artificially phased out

I'm trying to prove a point to my brain: Reblog if you think fanfiction does not need sex to be good.
There is a trend I’ve noticed that smut fics tend to be much more popular than anything else and honestly I just want to have something to look at to remind myself and that writing doesn’t have to have sex to be worth putting out into the community.

I know you were just using a turn of phrase @heraldofcrow but I couldn't get the mental image out of my head. Due to lack of practice, enjoy this fast, low-quality image edit

PS if any artists wanna take this idea and run with it then please I wish to see so I can laugh at these handsome and traumatized nerds
It will forever stand out to me that, of the 3 original top 1st Class SOLDIERS, rich kid Genesis is the one that snapped first.
Not biological experiment child soldier never really had a dad Sephiroth,
Not poor kid joins the army and tries to maintain a code of morals and honor in the middle of a war spawned from politics Angeal,
But the hero complex rich boy with the apple trees in his yard and an obsession with an unfinished opera Genesis.

hot artists don't gatekeep
I've been resource gathering for YEARS so now I am going to share my dragons hoard
Floorplanner. Design and furnish a house for you to use for having a consistent background in your comic or anything! Free, you need an account, easy to use, and you can save multiple houses.
Comparing Heights. Input the heights of characters to see what the different is between them. Great for keeping consistency. Free.
Magma. Draw online with friends in real time. Great for practice or hanging out. Free, paid plan available, account preferred.
Smithsonian Open Access. Loads of free images. Free.
SketchDaily. Lots of pose references, massive library, is set on a timer so you can practice quick figure drawing. Free.
SculptGL. A sculpting tool which I am yet to master, but you should be able to make whatever 3d object you like with it. free.
Pexels. Free stock images. And the search engine is actually pretty good at pulling up what you want.
Figurosity. Great pose references, diverse body types, lots of "how to draw" videos directly on the site, the models are 3d and you can rotate the angle, but you can't make custom poses or edit body proportions. Free, account option, paid plans available.
Line of Action. More drawing references, this one also has a focus on expressions, hands/feet, animals, landscapes. Free.
Animal Photo. You pose a 3d skull model and select an animal species, and they give you a bunch of photo references for that animal at that angle. Super handy. Free.
Height Weight Chart. You ever see an OC listed as having a certain weight but then they look Wildly different than the number suggests? Well here's a site to avoid that! It shows real people at different weights and heights to give you a better idea of what these abstract numbers all look like. Free to use.

I know I'm in the minority of people that even care, but it's always weird to me that, for all the times Carol has interacted with and worked with Thor, and fought Amora, she very rarely runs into Loki. Mind you, it feels like he tends to appear just about every other time those two do.
For example, I can only remember one distinct moment of them being on the same page/interacting in the comics so far:
Tumblr media
In the dialogue we get, Loki knows who Carol is. Knows her last name the same way Thor does, refers to her the same way that Thor did when they initially met, and occasionally still does. There's even some level of respect there to refer to her by name, even if it's just a base level acknowledgment kind.
And it's not like Carol never interacts with magic users. Hell, her most recent run had her on trial with a magic council after she went around asking all kinds of magic users for help with a thing, which ends in asking Amora of all people for help:
Tumblr media
Mind you, these two don't really get along, especially not after this most recent run.
So, of all the magic users, I have to wonder why Carol has never really had any on panel interactions with Loki. There's arguably potential for a strong story or two at least.
Carol's current main weakness is magic, and Loki’s main strength is just that. Meaning that, if you pit them against each other/put them at odds, then Carol is gonna need to use her brain and/or get help without the need of depowering her again.
Put them in a scenario to work together and you've honestly got a well-rounded duo that can't be stopped by much except potential disagreements on morals/end goals, I would think. After all, Carol's not above causing chaos to achieve a result so long as she doesn't see/anticipate a significant negative effect on the lives of innocents/civilians:

Something like stealing and wrecking one of Tony's cars can be fair game in her book though:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Anyways, TLDR: Let Loki and Carol interact, Marvel, you cowards
