hey guys help me out here I had a dream with a guy who walked kinda like a spider and he looked like this and I swear he's from somewhere am I making it up??

very simplistically ofc but like. is this a dude who exists?? might have had some red in his design... also not at all sure about the hat. feels like a cross between a nutcracker and a nintendo villain

[ID: rushed simplistic digital doodle of a tall, thin man with dark trousers and shiny black shoes and a blue jacket which has two rows of buttons. The man has a blue nondescript hat, a big white smile, a nintendo-style long angled moustache and big circular white eyes. His fingers are skinny and he's sort of bent over a bit. End ID.]

#random rambles #character design #dreams #help???? i'm so confused djshds i need to know if my subconscious knows more than me #also in the dream he was creepy as heck he walked on all fours with his elbows and knees at angles like a spider #and he was hunting me to death and I kept killing him in all manner of ways and he kept reappearing and I was just realising that I was #gonna spend the rest of my life (as bolt the super dog btw) running from this immortal monster #it was wild

happy meesiversary!!! tis 1 year since first post of daily mees :D

and i has something cool 👀 is sleepy hard for u? mayhaps would be easier when covered in many sneeby meeses! daily mees present: mees blanket!

[ID: simple pen doodle of a mouse with triangle feet, big ears, a pointy nose and little whiskers, sitting next to a banner which goes between two poles with “anniversary” written on it in caps. hanging below that is a blanket with lots of vague tiny mice on it. the sitting mouse is lifting a paw towards the blanket with an excited and happy expression.

the second picture is a screenshot from spoonflower of the preview of a duvet cover with a daily mees pattern. there are lots of small sleepy meeses all over it, black lines on white. end ID.]

y'know how in some areas like south asia, the caribbean, and so on, feral dogs are a serious pest issue, and some people kill them, eat them, etc? and yknow how that fact absolutely horrifies people in countries like the US? i wonder how many of those dog defenders fucking hate pigeons.

#nah this though #culture #animals #tw animal death #tw sex mention #i did an assignment that involved this sort of thing and I think while there is a lot of “oh no you can't eat the dog!!!” in the dog meat #festival discourse #there's also a reasonable angle which is the welfare of the dogs before and during slaughter #and of course it's hard to find unbiased sources but the conditions I've heard described wouldn't be used for pigs in the UK #eating an animal that my culture considers above slaughter? sure you do you; we eat pigs and cows and all sorts and think it's fine #but in any situation of animal slaughter #welfare is important #anyway #good post lmao

Being a young adult is so strange. You enter a coffee shop. The 20 year old girl waiting behind you cried all night because she just came to a new city for university and she feels so alone. That 27 year old guy over there works a job he is overqualified for, he lives with his parents and wants to move out but doesn’t know what to do about it. That one 24 year old dude already has a car, a house, and a job waiting for him once he graduates thanks to his dad’s connections. The 26 year old barista couldn’t complete his higher education because he has to work and take care of his family. The 28 year old girl sitting next to you has no friends to go out with so she is texting her mother. That couple (both 25 years old) are married and the girl is pregnant. The 29 year old writing something on her laptop has realized that she chose the wrong major so she is trying to start all over. We are not alone in this, but we are actually so alone. Do you feel me

I can't be the only one surprised how casually you're just. Here. Mind talking about what it was like to like. Join Tumblr?

It was 13 or 14 years ago. From what I remember you just shouldered aside the mastodons, went into the Tumblr cave and carved your mark on the wall, telling people you were now signed up for tumblr, and then they would haul memes on animal hides past you. Back then it was mostly cats doing amusing things, obviously, but we would watch them by the flickering firelight, and chortle to ourselves hopefully before leaving the cave and trudging back to our lives.

hey fic writers,

fun question:

do your fics pass the bechdel test?

Don’t get me wrong, I’m not saying every fic has to. NO ONE would expect that of a pwp and if your characters are snowed in or lost in the woods it absolutely makes sense your fic won’t pass the bechdel test. But I noticed a lot of longer fics that reasonably could don’t pass, even those with a female main character. I found that a bit sad, especially considering the majority of fic writers and readers are women or were socialized as such. I know a lot of canon sources don’t give a lot of female characters to play with and that makes it certainly harder. But not impossible.

Idk, I just wanted to put that out there. food for thought or something.

when you multiply a number by another number, do you change the original number, or is it a new number

like 5 times 2 is 10, right

is that 10 the same guy as that 5 or is it a different one

I love Minecraft but let's be real vanilla survival is boring unless you set your own arbitrary goals or building projects. You could argue that's the entire point of Minecraft as a sandbox game, but when you play popular modpacks like RLCraft, you wish that the vanilla game had anywhere near the same level of satisfying progression and challenge. Idk.

#I'm just bad enough at minecraft that vanilla survival is a great big challenge for me jdksksks #however modpacks do add an excellent lick of taste #minecraft

I start hanging around with one of my friends a little bit more and getting a bit closer to them and immediately I'm fighting not to have the "what are we?" conversation

#smh #go you for resolving to be communicative about it
