i love others' selfships so much it's unreal. if i know you and you selfship i love your relationship. i'm your biggest hypeman ever. they would adore you. they Do adore you. i know, factually, because actually we're best friends now. and they told me. i hope you know that they love you, and i hope you know that to them, you're the same source of comfort that they are to you.
Reblog the previous selfshipper with a song that you think fits one of their ships or F/O’s! Make sure to specify the ship or F/O and why you think the song fits! (If there is a reason!)
what's the best time of the day for you and your f/o(s)?
is it the soft blissful morning? where you first open your eyes to see your f/o by your side? or maybe it's when you guys first get ready to tackle the long day ahead. you and your f/o talk about how you're gonna take charge of the day and enjoy each other's company. or is it when you make breakfast together? the smiles you give to each other as you and your f/o sit and eat your favorite breakfast food with a drink of your choice.
is it the exciting and bustling afternoon? where you and your f/o, if they don't have anything to do, do daily chores such as grocery shopping or simply any mundane activities. or maybe you want to spend quality time with your f/o? go to the park for a walk or go to a small cafe to relax? the day is yours so go seize with them!
or is it the calm yes beautiful night? where either you or your f/o come back from a busy day and just need your love? hold them close as you sit in the living room and talk about your or their day. maybe prepare a small dinner for you to enjoy together before getting ready for bed. enjoy the sounds of the night as you snuggle close to your beloved as you feel and hear their heartbeat, lulling you to sleep in their arms.
every day with your f/o is special. enjoy every single day with them.
We don’t talk enough about how hostile the self shipping community has become for Jewish self shippers. A lot of people in the community selfship on main where they talk about politics; this in itself is perfectly fine, but it becomes a problem when people share mis/disinfo that harms others. I’m not just talking about people who accidentally reblog misinformation about groups that support the people of Gaza, I’ve seen blogs here reblog straight up blood libel and Holocaust inversion. We owe it to Jewish self shippers to make sure our community is a safe space for them.
If you want to know how to spot antisemitism, there are countless posts made by Jewish Tumblr users that detail and explain common antisemitic rhetoric used under the guise of supporting Palestine. You should also follow Jewish blogs so that you can expose yourself to Jewish perspectives.
To all of the Jewish self shippers reading this: I love you. You are not going crazy when you notice the rise in leftist antisemitism in spaces that were supposed to be safe for you. You all deserve to have a safe and welcoming place in the self ship community where you can depend on your fellow self shippers to have your back.
i want you to know that you dont have to follow what every other selfshipper does. you cant write or draw? then thats fine! i think you just gushing about silly things is more than enough! your f/o does not mind what you do, theyre just happy that you think about them! or even endlessly stare at fanart, screencaps, or even rewatching/rereading their sources!
but oh? you want to post things but you just cant? or have this nagging feeling of endless fear and embarrassment? thats ok! thats totally a-okay here! just remember: you shouldnt feel embarrassed to gush about your f/o(s).
you also have the draft feature. you can use that! maybe thatll be better, maybe you can just use it to throw in your selfship lore. or have all of these silly cute headcanons for your f/o! or even do silly incorrect quotes too. maybe at some point you want to post that sort of stuff. but for now, just at least get them down and save them for another day to see.
please always remember: selfshipping is not a competition. its for you. i understand if you feel afraid and self conscious to put yourself out there, but just know: your f/o(s) see you and are always so proud of you whatever you may do.
( pr0/c0mship dni !! this post is not for you !! )
So uhm yea, like I said in the post of this piece’s sketch, I am still gonna draw Murdoc this way seeing as it’s easier to consistently replicate and it makes me feel good when I can do that. So um. Yea. Biblically accurate Murdoc is not happening anymore 😭
