ok turns out the tiktok ban did get passed and i have to reiterate as shitty as the app is and how harmful it is, the fact that the ban came as a result not of any actual good reason but because the us government wants to silence people is actually horrible and is inexcusable. if this is how harmful things are treated—only if it inconveniences the government—then it shows just how corrupt america is tbh and endangers actual free speech. the reason why that amendment was implemented in the first place is to allow criticism of the government yet when you do that you get gassed, arrested, even killed. fuck this country man.

somehow the poor cops who we were told are simply too understaffed and underpaid because of Woke to deal with 'rampant rising crime' have found the strength to beat the shit out of college students across the whole country for peacefully saying "divest from the country killing innocent palestinians in the tens of thousands"

Not me wanting to not do digital art So bad that i'm just using my traditional art and coloring it
Here's some more silly shroob concepts
Furnick had their cap/head melted off, so Hurb made them a new one so they can still use fire
And Pan is a shroob that was made in a non poisoned environment so they kinda look like a normal mushroom (or bread?)

I was bored one night and I decided to study some of the tamagotchi sprite sheets.
The next thing I knew, this little guy was on my computer.

So I just saw a post by a random personal blog that said “don’t follow me if we never even had a conversation before” and?????? Not to be rude but literally what the fuck??????????
I’ve had people (non-pornbots) try to strike conversation out of nowhere in my DMs recently, and now I’m wondering if they were doing that because they wanted to follow me and thought they needed to interact first. I feel compelled to say, just in case, that it’s totally okay to follow this blog (or my side blog, for that matter) even if we’ve never talked before.
Also, I’m legit confused. Is this how follow culture works right now? It was worded like it’s common sense but is that really a thing?

I thought I posted this already oops. Here is some bios of these two idiots that I love so much.
Tumblr media
Hurbie (she/her): Before she made her little journey, she was a tailor apprentice working under Harhall.
She is decently peppy And tries to keep everyone in high spirits. But her anxiety and awkwardness is worn directly on her. She tries to appear tough and she technically is, But at this point she's so used to people bossing her around that she struggles to actually put her foot down.
She just moved to the bean bean kingdom for job reasons But also for an old dream. She had as a kid to go to space so she's trying to rent a rocket for that ( I like to imagine space travel is actually pretty easy here thanks to galaxy)
tho despite doing what she loves, she ended up becoming pretty miserable after a while of doing the same thing every day. As she was not very good at talking and ended up self isolating for a bit.
It's only after she takes a night walk to try and help herself, She finds the person that changes her entire life. Beez! She ends up rescuing this "poor defenseless" alien and a super willing to help when hearing their plight about trying to find other survivors. Letting them take her boom box and modify it, and coming along to help.
She ends up, however, learning more about what they are and, well, how deadly the Shroobs are in general. After this, she was tempted to try and stop this, but something kept pushing her forward. Almost like her brain is working against her. It's probably nothing, though :]
She also never fully goes villain despite everything. Even after some changes she goes through, she is still a dork that cares a lot about aliens and cool clothes
Tumblr media
Beez (it/they/he) shroob mechanic that survived what they call "the acid rain."
They don't really talk about anything before that. It's hard enough trying to remember what was going on during the rain. Seeing they're fallen melt away.
What we do know is They ran far away from the mushroom kingdom, even somehow crossed the border into bean bean.
There they stayed for multiple years. Completely isolated and emotionless. It wasn't until a weird bean creature approached them that they started moving again, to attack her at first, But then stopping after feeling touch for the first time in years.
Shroobs can't cry,, So all they did was stop. The weird bean called Hurb Took them in giving them some leftover pizza and soda and even giving her room to them. They were definitely confused by this hospitality but ended up learning to enjoy this kindness.
After all, wasn't the whole mission to find a place to call home to finally relax. Yet they were left unsatisfied... The mission couldn't truly succeed when there's only one of them left. In the end, they repurposed Hurb's old boom box not only for communication but also to send a signal out, a shroob sos, to try and find any survivors. It took a while, but they did.
And that starts their journey to find every last shroob!
Beez ends up going from mimicking emotions to finding their own person within this mess. Which ends up making them one of the kinder shroobs... Emphasis on kinder. He can and will still try to kill people. But only if it's necessary. He ends up getting a hobby outside of his electronic work by learning how to make drinks. Vim never tasted better!

I don't really see people use that kinito used to be a tamagotchi much in their works, so i'm making a whole art piece of that. That's kinda it, but I enjoyed making it.
Also, yes, I know it's was red but it looked ugly when I tried using the color they did ngl >:[

I am super happy with how this came out.

i genuinely hope that boop day inspires everyone to interact more with other tumblr users. because it’s clearly way more fun this way!! even once the boop button is gone, there’s still asks, tag and ask games, comments, dms, fuck it let’s bring back blog rates i don’t care. part of the reason that tumblr is dying is that its way less social than it used to be. let’s fix that!!
