check out this neat little guy i found in a park in northern california! he was iridescent, so cool!

Pretty sure this is a Sceloporus, which are just awesome lizards. Did you get a chance to see the belly? Because it can be just *stunning*.

So annoying when people try to hold alternate-world fantasy to "historical accuracy" standards like. if I wanted historical accuracy I simply would have read/written historical fiction.

The only thing that should matter is if the alt world feels internally consistent/believable. Not "oh but back then" THERE IS NO BACK THEN. IT'S NOT REAL

and just because some aspects of the world (fashion, systems of government, levels of technology) feel consistent with a particular time period in our history doesn't mean that the author is obligated to stick to all other characteristics of that time period. The POINT of alt-world fantasy is to create a world in which the story they want to tell can work, and that's the metric I'm holding things to

#fantasy #high fantasy #worldbuilding #seriously sick of this #Obviously it's common and helpful to use historical research to enhance worldbuilding #but people aren't trying to write an exact representation of medieval europe except with dragons for example #don't you see how that's actually less ''realistic?'' #the dragons would change things

I know everyone wants stories with happy endings, and they all hate when the main characters die, and insist well what's the point of the story then, it didn't matter at all! they died!

but.

I don't know. do the stories of those who die at the end not matter at all?

because if that's the case, I have news about the stories told by everyone who has ever lived in this world.

we all die at the end. we are all doomed by the narrative.

but our stories still matter.

#writing #writers on tumblr #writerscommunity #listen it can be done well it can be done poorly #but i dont get this hatred of characters dying at the end and everyone not getting their happy ending #its not about realism #its about what the author is trying to say #some characters die because they need to die #because it fulfills their character arc it enhances it #it makes a difference #and there is catharsis in understanding that sometimes people die for a good cause for a glorious purpose #we all die #isnt there relief in seeing a story where our special friends die but it mattered in the end and death was something meaningful #if it was embraced with dignity #am i making any sense #i just know my own death wont matter #i like following stories where the mc dies but #it meant something the way mine will not #and the vast majority of people do not die for a good cause or with purpose #and those who do are heroes in our reality #but why are they so reviled in fiction #let your characters deaths mean something

Hi hi hi!!

I LOVE how you draw Papyrus, Would it be possible to get a tutorial or smth on how you draw him?

preferably with classic or swap, since I'm having trouble getting down how neutral or negative expressions would work with their kind of face

Helloooooooo!!!!! Thank you! :D

Sorry it's not exactly a tutorial, but just a rough step by step. I generally start with the eyes, then I do the overall face shape. I go fixing it as I draw in the mouth, then do the rest of the head and other details.

As for expressions, it might help if you draw it on something more familiar first. I'm more accustomed to drawing anime style people, so I'll use that as an example. Pay attention to the shape of the eyebrows, the eyes, and the mouth. It'll become easier to translate that into the way you draw these guys!

#w9 inbox #I hope that helps somewhat #my only other tip is studying artwork from your favorite artists #what shapes do they use? what other elements are present to enhance these emotions? (body posture and colors etc.) #there are also several different styles people draw them in so you'll have to find what works best with yours!

Definitely don't knock your device's accessibility options. I was looking through my phone's accessibility settings last night, and wow, it feels like technology has really advanced since I first got a smartphone.

I've even found a setting that raises certain sounds I apparently have trouble hearing, and it feels like I'm experiencing the music I love with a completely different perspective. It's honestly wild because my first smartphone had like... mono audio, and that was as close as you could get to accessibility

#disability #disability advice #like i'm not HoH as far as i know but i do have some differences with hearing #honestly my biggest issue is. i can barely differentiate where sound is coming from. i usually guess when i can't see a sound's origin lmao #which i don't think disables me but it is harder when i'm driving i've found #there have been a few times where i HEAR an ambulance but i have no clue where it's coming from. like none. #and like... you don't even have to be disabled to use those features on *your* device... #...it's just that for many disabled people they will be heavily invested in making their things accessible #so while i'm not unable to use my phone if that hearing booster wasn't in use it still enhances my experience 👍 #also live transcription???? that would NEVER have been an option with my first phone #i feel OLD (ish)

tbh possibly the funniest move nintendo has ever made was rereleasing sksw, The Timeline Game, like a year before totk, getting all the new botw fans obsessed with the timeline lore, and then fucking everything up with zero explanation in totk. i hope they never explain it i hope they just leave it like this forever

#'remember how we made this game specifically to tie all our lore together? you liked that right. well fuck you' #huge win for people (me) who think timeline-obsessed zelda theorists are annoying as FUCK #'where does botw go on the timeline' who cares actually. clearly not the devs. the game is good. it doesnt matter <3 <3 <3 \ #personal #the timeline is an ENHANCER for the overarching lore but i truly don't think the devs should ever be beholden to it. #they were making games for like 25 years with 0 overarching timeline whatsoever and most of them turned out great #we can theorize or whatever but i think making the game chronologically consistent with the already wildly confusing lore #should be REALLY low on the priority list for the devs. if the game is well-written and fun to play we can retcon it into the timeline late #just like we did with LITERALLY EVERY SINGLE OTHER GAME ON THE TIMELINE EXCEPT SKSW. #totk spoilers

naegirigami shippers are so often afraid of kyoko and byakuya loving each other as they love makoto. is it because they cant fit into the conventional relationship dynamic that they can with makoto? is it because theyre so fixated on the idea of makoto being the glue that ties everyone together that they can't fathom that kyoko and byakuya can have a relationship that also stands up on its own? is it because one of them is really just a side bitch and there's only focus upon makoto and one other in the relationship? or do they really just ship makoto with both of them individually.

#makotalk #danganronpa #makoto naegi #kyoko kirigiri #byakuya togami #naegirigami #tonaegiri #to be clear i think a V relationship is fine. im fine with people that do this. however make sure to consider what you think of them #i dont personally ship kyoko and byakuya! but yknow. i think the polycule is enhanced when they're in a mutual romantic relationship #btw can we agree on a ship name at some point. can we get on that too

There’s nothing wrong with the other eggs copying things Leo does. She’s iconic. She’s a trendsetter. She had colored signs and now they all have colored signs. She had a signature head and now they all do. She made her head custom and now others have custom heads. It’s so good for individualizing the eggs and showing off their personalities. Stop looking at it as stealing and think of it as Leo being the fashion icon of the eggs fr

#qsmp #people are being so silly #it’s not that serious #and meta talk it was an amazing idea from the admin and helps with everything #think of all the lore moments that were enhanced bc someone found a sign and immediately knew who left it

Ignore all logistical considerations of "would they ever meet each other under these circumstances". If you don't think Jules Bashir would have chosen to join Starfleet, imagine he is on the station for some other reason, or they meet in some other location.

I wanted to make this poll because I've seen various fics where Garak reassures Julian that far from being upset over him being augmented, Garak is grateful for it, either explicitly because (he thinks) they wouldn't be able to have their usual conversations if it weren't for the augmentations, or simply because he likes Julian "just the way he is" and wouldn't want him to be "different". I disagree that Garak would think like this (or at the very least, I think Julian would react negatively if he did, rather than be reassured), so I wanted to hear everyone else's thoughts.

#garashir #Star Trek: Deep Space 9 #this is not just a shipping question btw so please answer whether you view them platonically/romantically/whatever! #Julian Bashir #polls #Starky's original posts #I'll admit. to me there is a very clear right and wrong answer here. #again not in terms of Garak's characterization so much as in terms of JULIAN'S. #I would be fine if Garak said this and Julian felt at least somewhat conflicted about it but I've never seen even that........ #I've wanted to make this post for SO LONG but it's a very common thing in a lot of fics that I otherwise REALLY LIKE #from authors that I REALLY LOVE AND ADMIRE #and I have no idea if I'm just being completely insane and oversensitive OTL #but I just read yet another fic where Garak was like ''I have no choice but to be grateful you were genetically enhanced #because Jules would never have joined Starfleet so we never would have met.'' #and I just want to yell WHY DO YOU ALL ASSUME THAT #like not even getting into assuming that Jules would be permanently significantly intellectually disabled #based on limited information about his early childhood developmental delays #but more importantly assuming he wouldn't (read: couldn't. because I KNOW that's what you mean.) end up on the station #You! Star Trek fan! Do you think people with intellectual or learning disabilities are allowed in Starfleet? Answer quickly! :) #sorry I told you I've held onto this for too long. and now I'm a deranged bitch about it :|

one of my favorite npmd moments is probably in high school is killing me when they sing "there's no where to turn / for the class of twenty twenty Wurn" like help??????? they could have just said there's no where to run and had it rhyme without pronouncing one like wurn but it makes me chuckle whenever i hear it i love you jeff blim for that lyric
