#whenever my meds kick in it feels like im gonna piss myself. not literally but its really really feels like it #and now whenever that happens my mind goes back to pancho (grandmas dog) at a xmas party years ago #bc he peed when we arrived bc he was so excited to see ppl and my cousin had to clean it up :o) #well for better or for worse i know that feeling now when im pumped on 20mg of adderall #im still getting used to this whole diagnosis thing cause ive gone untreated and undiagnosed for the longest time. so theres probably a lot #i still dont know and have to learn to get myself to be.. functional on my own? self managing???? #i even set up reminders on my phone for work periods meals and stuff. but the problem is actually getting myself to stick to that to a T #because the minute i slack off or something gets in the way it throws it all off until i can be bothered to get back on track. it sucks #at least ive built up other habits like writing notes and setting alarms ahead of time.. but i feel like i could do better #its always hard to change something if youve been doing it wrong for the longest time. especially behaviour and thinking patterns. sigh #in other news my glasses bailed on me so i have to get a new pair sometime. i just realized i never draw my sona with glasses but thats #mostly bc i forget. id love to get some browline glasses like my old pair but im picky and its hard to find one id like for the next 5 year #i also finally managed to collect all the fish in my animal crossing file!!! pulled out a char last week and boom now i have a poster :o) #THAT was a moment where i almost peed myself for real. id love to get all the bugs but i cant stay up late on the switch :o( #yapping #my art #myart #doodles #personal #diary

i love coming on here and finding out everyone lost their damn mind while i slept

#why are people acting like wotc are going to come to their houses and uninstall the game from their computer LMAO #and why are people acting like larian is washing their hands of bg3 when they literally said they have additional updates planned via patch #like did we seriously expect anything other than what we've been told? why is this news #wotc is shitty sure but no more than any other big corp. #this isnt a ya dystopian movie we don't have to defeat them ahsksfjk calm down #i also don't think we need to worry about how the characters are owned by wotc i feel like it's more for merch purposes #i do not think they're going to become the new poster children of dnd #that's not really how dnd is marketed #idk i think a lot of people gaslit themselves into believing that we were getting 2 dlc and bg4: astarion boogaloo #it's giving valentines day romance patch tbh #none of this is directed at mutuals btw u guys are normal ♥️ i just think in general this fandom needs a reality check

[mitamicah]

I need to think out loud - feel free to ignore

#I really want to quit the event for trans day of visibility #I just don't see what I can give to the conversation #and I haven't for a while now #there is already a person that does all the posters #when I did the budget it was all wrong #half the ideas I've come up with has been having big holes #and honestly I don't think that comfortable in the group #I feel like I am back at school or university being put in a group for a project that I cannot pull out of because it will affect my grade #or the rest of the group's performance #but there's no grades #there is a performance of sort being the event #and that could still be great #but I don't feel like I have the spoons or the experience for this #I am just smiling (barely) and nodding along #yet a part of me are also scared of dropping out now #there is not a lot of time left #and so it wouldn't be fair on the other people to ditch this last minute #but would it be more fair to let me just tag along not doing anything of value? #and I should probably decide soon since we are getting closer #it is this big dark cloud over my thought rn #I am trying to concentrate on my drawing challenge yet I don't have any joy in it #because all my thoughts go to this event #I don't know what to do #I really don't want to do this #but I did say yes #and I hate tapping out and be seen as untrustworthy as well #micahs thoughts

i would be so good at art if i could just execute my ideas

#⚠️ #personal #i have so many cool ideas in my head but no motivation to draw them #like i have an idea for a cool fake poster for my oc sophia but i gotta learn how to draw wolf heads in order to draw her cause of her mas #k which sucks #my other oc tammi the ideas i have for them require drawing a lot of backgrounds which i do not like doing #but theyre all surreal and bizarre anyways so itd probably be fun if i just actually drew them #i should really flesh out tammi more their world is so cool in my brain its just putting it on paper thats hard #their weird fucking dreams #ahhh and i gotta design an outfit for my oc michiko and redesign izanami life is so hard #and fucking character sheets good lord #theres so much i wanna do but im tiredd

simon peter is the funniest apostle to work with because in theory he's the most loyal, most by-the-book of the apostles so you'd expect him to be the most logical and collected one but 80% of his concerns (pre crucifixion then everything went downhill and they all died) are that he has a crush on every person he encounters

#🧅 #im not religious just insane.jpg #true poly disaster. funniest shit ever. #cause yknow simon p's a fisherman he's married he's a very poster family man #and he loves his wife he really does. im not gonna make the only guy who's married fucking Hate his wife and want to like. go have gay sex #instead cause mlm good mlw bad. but he does have his. Issues. concerning how he views women #he's gonna work on that though i'm not leaving him like that don't worry. peter already knew the torah by heart probably for peter turning #to god meant learning how to respect women. and yknow people he considered 'ungodly' in general. to respect humanity as he respects god. #tee hee i love this arc. i love all of them but i dont ever rlly talk abt this one. #but anyways yes he does love his wife. #then some strange guy shows up while he's fishing and he's like follow me son of jonah i will make you a Fisher Of Men. and peter's like #TEE HEE OKAY JESUS i will come fish men with you. #which......okay....simon....... interesting that u wanted to do that..... with zero context.... #and then cue weird thing with magdalene. which. they don't end up together by Any Means. #they hate each other. they have not spoken in a civil manner once. but they do have a weird bond between them than only aromantic people #can understand. #WHICH BTW i already knew there's a thin line between polyamory and aromanticism. but it really showed when while trying to #explore how peter experiences polyromanticism i found myself projecting a lot of my own aromanticism on him #(is polyromantic a correct term? i'm not sure these terms really confuse me especially considering the time period cause like. polyamorous #describes a relationship with multiple people which peter obviously wasn't in in 30 AD. but he Did have romantic feelings for multiple #people so is that polyromanticism? or is that a completely different term? idk. bare with me.) #very interesting. anyways yeah there's that. magdalene is aro also to me. so yeah this is one of the most fun dymanics i have in this lore #cause like. polyromantic person and aromantic person somehow having the same mutual not platonic not romantic but a secret third thing #connection with each other. i love thinking about them

It sucks there aren't more JP>EN translators in the GG community because it feels like I'm just pulling shit out of my ass half the time but no one's ever written me a strongly worded letter about how one of my translations is entirely wrong so it must be at least slightly convincing shit haha...

#textpost #I've been studying Japanese off and on for something like 6 years now and I still feel like an utter beginner at it ngl #The more popular my translations get the more this kinda weighs on me to be honest #There's a certain level of quality I feel obligated to maintain and if I make a mistake a LOT of people will see it now #It's not like when I first started doing these where maybe ~30 people max would see them #Some of these have had tens of thousands of views. My Twitter page's gotten 100k views in one day after posting a translation before 😬 #I think I might take a short break from translating after I post GGCA 06+07 and focus on studying more before starting 08 #Chapter 08 is a really long one. It'll be easy to clean but there's a bunch of text in it #I still enjoy doing these and don't plan on stopping 100% btw. Can't stop when I haven't even gotten to the Denki Akiba chapter yet lol #But it wigs me out a little when I think too hard about all this haha #Need to become more reclusive.... Make it so you can only get my attention by hanging up bounty posters.... (JK JK JK JK)

You can’t ask me to chose between the two! Maybe in this world they’re twins? Or one of them is one of the many OZZ’s sisters. Please let’s recycle instead of throw out. (Mostly joking btw, you do you!)

They are two parts of the same whole…a universal contradiction…in one universe the comic continues with green, and in another the comic continues with red.

But yeah, I think my will is being tested a bit; the green and red campaigning has been persuasive B,*)

#ask #ouyang zizhen #red vs green saga #for posterity’s sake I’m gonna tag it #I mean it when I say I love them both! The community reactions have been wonderful to watch though #Whatever happens i just hope to make it funny #one will be oyzz and the other shall be The Nameless Diciple. #it would be cute if they were twins. Or besties. #it also makes whats about to come for them a lot worse B*( #I JEST #also no worries on sending me asks like this; I’m always happy to listen to feedback and change course if needed #but I also know people want me to do what I want to in the end #I really can’t emphasize how lucky I feel to have been adopted by you all #im so sorry im 2+ months behind on 90% of asks. My megareply is coming soon

do you have artistic inspirations or do you just have fun and play around?

i do! alot of my mutuals inspire me, my fav online artist is jadenvargen on here. also I'm kind of an art history loser so I really love old expressionistic +cubic paintings. an illustrator that I found recently that I really love is gigi cavenago! as for art style...I really love older cartoonists like bill watterson and alison bechdel. more modern cartoonists I love are yugo limbo and david cowles

#but also yes I do have fun and play around. it is a skill I have acquired over the years #i jest but actually learning to stop caring and have fun has helped me a lot too #symb replies #ALSO I really love the art of bob peak. i would love to do a poster for a movie I love in his style

[tricoufamily]

#just curious! i think i’ve got a lot of new followers and i don't wanna like tell a joke about an original plot point and spoil something #even though i have changed most of it ;) #my obligatory 'movie poster' is renderingggg :) it looks really good so far but it's gonna take an HOUR bc i wanted it to be really hq #and then once that's posted the only thing to do is make the first post nervous gas #oh yeah i got my new mouse they had it in pastel purple it's so pretty #anyway

[pinktinselmonstrosity]

i do see a lot of interesting takes on here about other social media which i feel are heavily influenced by the fact that lots of people on this website maybe don't have many friends

#if ur perception of instagram is just 'influencers' and 'content creators' then i'm sorry for you #obviously i'm not saying it's without problems but #using instagram as a way to stay in contact with and keep up with your friends is really no different from doing that on tumblr #and if u think it is then either you don't use ig at all or you just don't have any friends on there #there's this odd sense of superiority these kinds of posts often espouse #that the poster is better than people who use social media (apart from tumblr which we all know has no problems whatsover...) #i feel like a major part of any social media is curating your own experience #and people know how to do that on tumblr (which why i'm usually blissfully unaware of insane discourse happening elsewhere on this site) #but for some reason think they don't have to do that on other social media sites and then complain about their experiences there? #if you don't want to see posts from influencers on ig then........ don't follow influencers? #just follow your friends and only let your friends follow you and post whatever you want #ik this is coming across as mean and i'm obviously not saying that you *have* to use ig or that you should #but to post unironically and uncritically about how *everyone* on *every* social media other than tumblr #is a clout-chasing ungenuine idiot who lives only to follow trends create content and lie about their life online #is being completely ignorant about the way most people use other social media sites - as. you know. SOCIAL media #which there is nothing wrong with #anyway i basically just saw a post abt this that pissed me off sorry for the rant lmao #but i do have a lot of thoughts abt this topic and about the good uses of social media in society in general #🧃

i love these old evangelion layouts

#90s editorial design is so cool 2 me #old japanese magazines are are really good too! #i look at them for ideas for my own job a lot. #even though i do mostly posters and advertising content #the occasional flyers is where i get to have a little more fun with layouts :3

commission for @everysinglepheel​ of their lovely Auguran! alternate color version below cut

this one has colors based on pheel’s sketch, which was a much softer palette due to unfortunate scanner issues, but i did both just in case! color adjustment is fun tbh so i figured why not? :)

#fr followers come get yalls juice #it's been a hot minute since i posted any fr content :") #i want to do more but im just. Really Busy with art at the moment #feel free to check out the non-fr stuff i post tho because there's gonna be a lot more of that :') #it doesn't do as well but i'm proud of it anyways #for context i have a Big Fancy art course atm as well as two upcoming theater productions #in which i am doing projection art - promotional art (posters) - merch designs - set assistance - props making/management #as well as Production Assistant #am Busy #i also have several other non-art classes #...but we dont talk about those #anyways #my art #flight rising #fr #veilspun #commission #commissions #fr commissions #fr commission #that moment when u cant remember what tags u use #oof

[quietwingsinthesky]

i have many many thoughts about rose & tentoo and how their relationship would evolve in this verse. about how you can't just take the love you have for one person and put it on someone else. not even a clone, a regeneration, a metacrisis. about how that doesn't mean you can't love them, or that you can't fall in love with them the same way, but that love has to be for them.

#it is relevant it just isn't relevant. right now. #but i do think about them a lot. #i think about them still living their lives after even leaves. think about rose and donna bonding. think about rose working for torchwood #and seeing a new side to jack and new sides to herself as well because she has to be there for the whole CoE thing. #think about tentoo transitioning because she is trans have i mentioned she's trans yet. she is. even doesn't know that yet because they #weren't there but they will someday. #i think about them all being at donna's wedding. and about a rose noble who grows up knowing the woman she took her name from. #they're a fambly.......... #i think about rose actually not keeping the whole doctor/aliens/mind wipe for your own protection/etc thing from tentoo for very long #about how working through both that being kept from her but also how it was killing rose to do that. how rose had to tell her. #is a fundamental part of what they build everything on now. they grow together. #i think about donna missing someone who isn't there and how sometimes with tentoo she feels a little better but it isn't exactly right #and how as time goes on. that feeling goes away more and more. her grief over losing the doctor *increases* as tentoo grows into a differen #person. she is still. fundamentally. the doctor. but she is also johanna tyler. and donna loves her. and still misses the doctor. #and i think. a lot. about that empty space that even leaves behind. about how they aren't there for donna's wedding. #about how they aren't there when rose noble is growing up. about how they disappear one day and no one ever tells rose or donna #or johanna or *any of them* what happened. i think about how they put up missing posters. i think about how rose holds her breath #for a whole year because hell the doctor got it wrong once with her. maybe they're just late. maybe they'll be back in time for christmas. #but even doesn't come back. they keep a picture of even on the mantel. and they do set an extra plate at christmas. just in case. #a lot of times it stays empty but they sometimes have other impromptu guests. martha and mickey and jack. jack comes by a lot. #couldn't keep him away if they tried really. sarah jane comes sometimes too. (sky babysitting rose noble. ough.) #something about. the doctor does have a family out there. if he'd only come home to them. #so does even. they're both going to have to go back sometime. face the music. sit down for dinner. #there's still time. there's still time. #dw oc

I don’t know if this is what you are looking for exactly, but I enjoy writing for Postcards to Voters because they focus on non-presidential races. I am currently writing postcards against an anti-choice constitutional amendment proposition in Ohio.

I wish more people would do things like that, instead of making posts that guilt trip people for not being excited enough about voting for the Blue sexual harasser instead of the Red one.

Thank you for your highly sensible response.

I guess there's a thing where "just because someone takes 15 seconds to shoot their mouth off online about something that's annoying them doesn't mean they have the time/energy to do anything actually constructive, even more so for the people who took .5 seconds to hit reblog now on someone else's shooting their mouth of post" but I think it would be strictly better for people to spend that .5 second exerting a smidgen of self control and going "either it's actual GOTV or it's not, and if it's not I'm going to not reblog it."

And as the election is over a year away...I don't think "vote blue no matter who" is actually a Get Out The Vote action at this point in time. It's annoying enough when people do it in person but at least then there's occasionally some chance of having a reasonable discussion about it, but on social media between people who don't really know each other? Ha snowball's chance in hell.

(I haven't done Postcards to Voters the last couple years, but I did around 2019-2020 or so and they are fairly low barrier to entry as long as you have stamp money, super introvert friendly, you can be as creative or non-creative as you want to be, and as you can do it from your home on your own schedule pretty darn spoonie friendly as well. As well as covid-safe. And yes, there's a big focus on local/state campaigns, which warms my participatory democracy loving little heart.) (ughh sounds like an important campaign maybe I should pick this thing up again.)

#I did big posts arguing about this in 2000 but I felt crummy afterwards so I'd really rather not rehash all that #it's theoretically and pragmatically wrong on multiple levels #this is the internet you don't get unity #you get two splinter groups arguing the two most extreme ends of the position possible each side convinced that they are 100% right #someone who's a little bit in favor of voting blue no matter who will get downright dogmatic about it #someone who's a little bit against will end up surrounded by anarchists who think voting is a waste of time #which wouldn't be the worst outcome ever #except that as far as I can tell most of the most vocal anarchists on tumblr don't do shit except tear down democratic politicians #like ok glad you think you're right I don't want to have anything to do with you though #there's like 2-3 anarchist posters on here who actually talk about direct action and organizing and stuff -- about things people can do #I guess with the abundance of time freed up by not spending a couple hours doing research and half an hour filling out a ballot #or much much less time than that if they're voting just for the president #yup congrats you sure saved a lot of time there now you have more time to convince other people to not vote either AWESOME GOOD JOB (sarcas #on an unrelated note I really need to work on a following the local news habit #and finding some way to learn more about oakland's history since I live here now #and I know how annoying it can be when someone's trying to be active in local politics but is missing highly important context

hoping and begging and praying that shadow being in the teaser image for the next set of sonic prime episodes means hes gonna have more screentime. if they do the "putting shadow in a bunch of the promotional stuff only to give him very little screentime in the actual thing" thing again like theyve done a million times i will be so sad. i wont be surprised but i will still be sad

#see the thing is due to the situation he is in i can understand why he doesnt get as much screentime as like. #sonic or the tails amy knuckles etc counterparts #but STILL why would you put him in the trailers and give him his own poster #and have a whole teaser that was just revealing he'd be in the show #if hes not gonna play a big role in the story and have a decent amount of screentime. #i mean i know why they would do that they would do that because hes popular #and a lot of shadow fans just eat up anything hes in and celebrate regardless of whether he was in character or had a lot of screentime #but stillllll... sonic prime please dont do this to me #ALSO hoping that he will be written well. he hasnt had enough screentime for me to #be able to confidently say that i like or dont like the way hes written #but i would rather have shadow not be in the show at all than act ridiculously out of character. #and i say that as someone who really loves shadow hes one of my favorite sonic characters. in my top 5 at least #im just also extremely picky about his characterization and seeing people get him wrong hurts so bad
