Tumblr announcing that they are unbanning nudity immediately after elon musk starts burning twitter to the ground is like pouring gasoline into an already open flame and then spitting on the ashes. The vindictive pettiness is so entertaining to watch--just outstanding

#twitter #tumblr #elon musk #writing #also its just good business and marketing tbh #companies still suck but this is funny so im letting it pass #for now at least #birdy chirps

PFTDGEHSJSJDYTE I CANT BELIEVE MONKEY D. LUFFY HAS TAKEN OVER TUMBLR!!!

At first sight I was like, oh cool! I see they’ve added a Luffy tab on my dashboard, because I love one piece. And then I look down the luffy tag,,, AND THERE ARE SO MANY PEOPLE WHO JUST. DON’T KNOW WHO HE IS XD. That must mean THEY’VE JUST ADDED HIM TO EVERYONE’S DASHBOARDS WAHAHAHA!

First of all, it’s pronounced loo-fee. Second of all, he’s from hit series One Piece and you better not forget it!!!

I'm barely to the massacre and I can already tell I'm going to be screaming at every this-makes-no-sense decision made by the writers (your temple is under violent attack, and you evacuate the kids... to a barely enclosed corner in a prominent temple room? Instead of to the hundreds of sky bison that were highlighted as flying in earlier? Why?) (And Aang left to clear his head and think instead of to run from his duties? That's such a less compelling plot arc?) (And the show had him briefly monologue about being a goofy kid who loves pies and his friends instead of using the extended temple scene to show any of that? Didn't want to pay more child actors, did you, Netflix?)

Yeah I'm just. Going to be screaming at the screen instead of enjoying this. Different decisions aren't necessarily bad, but when those decisions seem to be in the direction of "show a man burning alive before we even get to the on-screen massacre" this is just... not the show for me.

#The original show emphasized the horror and sadness of the massacre by putting it in the context of people and culture lost #This one is going the Show People We Don't Know Burning Alive Clearly That Will Make More Of An Impression route #Gyatso's bones will always be the epitome of heart break #get out of here with your on-screen immolations just to demonstrate literally flashy cgi #Anyway someone tell me if the Omashu episode is worth watching in isolation I've seen gifs of Zuko getting brow-beat by Random Market Lady #And that DOES sound hilarious #But is the rest of the episode worth it or should I stick to gifs #This is like trying to decide if a barely-canon-divergent fanfic is worth slogging through #For its five fun new scenes #When the rest is just The Same As The Original But Worse #avatar the last airbender #atla #natla #netflix atla

I just realized that The Locked Tomb series would be waaaay more popular than it is right now if one or both of the leads were male cause people go nuts for hogwarts esc houses, enemy's to lovers romance, and lore as deep as my fingers in your mom.

Someone please talk to me about this I am genuinely out raged.

#the locked tomb #gideon the ninth #harrow the ninth #nona the ninth #like its litrually a recipe for success #houses with specific personality traits that are easy to attach and easily marketable #enemys to lovers #the lore oh GOD THE LORE #girlies should be going nuts for it but for some reason everyone hates women and thats the true tragedy here #and lesbians. they also hate lesbians #maybe its for the best. they could barely handle Catra so i dont think theyd handle Harrow very well #both a blessing and a curse. not popular enough to be able to buy merch at a convention but at least we arent getting garbage hot takes like #the she ra fandom did

i love...wanpee...........🍊🍶🧡💚

#one piece #nami #zoro #one piece live action #opla #my art #alternate caption: dum dum fruit #im so happy that more and more people are getting into op it truly is the series that keeps on giving #op is a series easily misunderstood by its art style and goofiness but at its core are themes about abuse of power. its so well written #AND IM SO HAPPY I FINALLY HAVE TIME TO DRAW FANART FOR FUN AND NOT FOR LIKE. A CON OR STH AND WORRY IF MY ART IS “SELLABLE” OR “MARKETABLE” #*checks watch* apparently i havent drawn fanart for fun since december so thats like. 9 months #i had the biggest difficulty with this drawing #i actually drew this first in a lineless style. i attempted it lineless TWICE. with 2 diff brush sets/techniques #then i lined it and i was like hmm . i dont like this its too stiff #so i tried it with a lighter hand and im like !!! it clicks #i honestly do think im pretty rusty and bc of not drawing for fun in a while i dont really know what #to do with my art style direction as of late #so i may try a bunch of different things. and i hope people enjoy em regardless! #ill try to do a screencap redraw every few days this is really fun #i also havent had time for video games in months so im also relieved ill have time for more games n game fanart hopefully

I love reading fine print

#the actual tumblr terms of advertising contain the word 'fuck' twice #all im hearing is the US is a ripe market for scams i mean ripoffs i mean astrologists & fortune tellers #didnt at all expect this to get notes so rbing to avoid this turning into 'why are islamic countries weeeeird' #i just wanted to point out that its technically legal in the US 🤷‍♂️

he's wearing this when he rolls up to the final boss fight to annihilate fowler’s pasty ginger ass and win full custody of mizu

#mizu is MY dumb fucking kid hands off #he’s a good dad #he's my favorite character I love him so much #he's so supportive but not afraid to call mizu on bs #like a good parent #he's going to be so happy when mizu comes home #well he's going to be pissed but then relieved and happy #did you see how fast he was like 'mizu' and opening the door when ringo brought his stupid kid home? #he fucking remembered that sword sound not because of its purity but because it was *mizu's* sword #blue eye samurai #really creating niche market of sword dad in supportive tshirts over here...

i know this isnt what i usually post, "shut up fat kink blog" i dont fucking care sit the hell down and listen.

You're aware of the Huion New Year AIGI Tweet, right?

LEST WE FORGET, back in november last year:

If you want to buy a Wacom, Huion or Gaumon device, I'd recommend either looking into an alternative or buying secondhand/refurbished from 3rd party sellers on Ebay or something. Avoid Amazon for all the obvious reasons.

This is fucking disgusting. This is embarrassing. This is unacceptable.

most importantly,

They won't stop.

#lobby your local law places or whatever im not a lawyer #your representatives #controlling the use of AI and AIGIs for use in marketing needs to end and it will only end once its fucking illegal. #if anyone has any additions PLEASE add on to this post #if I'm wrong also please let me know because im dont wanna b responsible for spreading misinfo #god im pissed off. #wacom drama starts like a month after i drop a chunk of my life savings on a cintiq #im so over capitalism #im so over social media #hate it hate it hate it bite bite scratch chew kill #soft5ku11 speaking

YA novels these days are always named some cool sounding shit like "queen of blood and bone" or "the dragon assassin" but then contain neither goth necromancer royalty nor dragons, just the same cut and paste characters and tropes in different situations. it's like clickbait for books.

#🐉 #needless to say this isnt all ya lit but ive noticed among ya especially #theres this tendency for books to sound amazing in theory and then be a disppointment in practice #probably bc the market is very oversaturated there especially when it comes to anything that was done successfully once like death games #and its sad! i dont even read much ya anymore but it makes me sad when i go to the library and see whats on offer

Finally. images of the Boy where hes not so angry hes melting his face off

#pizza tower #fake peppino #peshino #arts #mine #the sweetest little peach 🍑! #with a BONUS marketable plushie alt #things of note: #1- the one of him sleeping is him 'nakey' #+ hat (hes bald under there lol) #he really likes wearing work clothes; it feels professional heehee #so hes got his favorite apron; slacks; and clogs #2- marketable plushie is not sapient like peshino is; hes just a cute elf on the shelf inspired design lol #but also. watch out. #3- he wishes w his whole bread-y soul to smash pizzaheads face in #its so funny to me to think of him inheriting the same unbridled rage towards ph that peppino has #its on sight

Just some thoughts about recent WEBTOON discourse from an originals creator. I recognize my inherent bias in this situation.

But please recognize that saying "fuck you" to a company means supporting the workers, not making them out to be unfortunate suckers... "would have/could have/should have's" don't get people out of situations.

"I never would have signed with them" is an incredibly tone-deaf thing to say. "this is why you shouldn't put all your eggs in one basket" is true, but it doesn't help people who are contractually obligated into exclusivity.

Most of us are making merch, running patreons, trying to get book deals, etc... and most of us aren't able to stop working and still pay our bills. we're trying. we'd all love to, but we can't.

If you really want things to be better, maybe try not putting down the people who are in the bad situation? it ends up feeling like people using our pain and mistreatment as an outlet to advertise themselves...

Our company is getting worse and worse by the year and we're risking a lot to talk about it! Please listen! The only power we have is complaining about things, and it's risky every time!

#I support people making their own sites #I HAVE my own site #I have a patreon #I sell books #I sell merch #I'm trying to market myself #and I've never made more than $400 in a month on my own on my comics #I cant drive and I cant work most jobs #I needed to leave an emotionally abusive situation #my company is getting worse and worse in ways that were completely unforseeable when I signed #which was YEARS ago #The current situation was NOTHING like it was then #so maybe dont act like you had future sight #its so rude #its so condescending... #this is my JOB #and we're risking a LOT to tell you about these things
