have you seen the (i think) official art of rollo without his hat before>? he looks so silly to me, i want to steal/wear his hat and immediately run away in fear of his wrath (also i'm salty about kalim not getting to be part of the event >:'( he's so perfect but he gets like nothing,, ignore my simping)

I THOUGHT I ANSWERED THIS I JUST SAW THIS TODAY OMFG

BUT YES I'VE SEEN IT he's just a lil guy i adore him deeply (i promise i'm not biting and squeezing him like a rubber chicken.) OK BUT TO BE FAIR. kalim deserves his own screentime away from jamil so hopefully he gets that soon !!!

I just realized I really

Really

Really

Love comics. Specially colorful ones. Specially whumpy ones. I was just reading [Countdown to Countdown] by @velinxi (phenomenal work, btw) and then I noticed it. Better than manhwa (sorry if i spelled wrong), bettet than hero hqs, better than colorless manga.

I really love comics.

(Shoutout to @befuddled-calico-whump because her comic [Riot Kings] is also amazingly awesome)

I'm accepting suggestions

(@emmettnet cited in the tags)

#like #now im seriously thibking about making a comic myself #its not like i'd be lost wandering how to do one #for some reason i've been collecting comic making tips for a while on my pinterest and tumblr #i have an idea of how to start #and it is not like i don't have ideas i could use #it would be really hard in the beggining #but so it wasn't to draw and write? #and also it would be cool #to mix two of my fav hobbies #comic #comics #whumpblr #whump comics #also shout out to emmettnet because JESUS CRHIST i love his art and writing and comics they are blatantly amazing #whump community #i don't like manhwa much because the panels have much space beetwen each other for me #i read them #there are some i really like #but the style is not my favorite #yea there is also the art style of mahwa #the pointy and thin faces #sharp lines and glow-y eyes #pretty. definitively #just not my thing #ofc there are exeptions #but i really prefer other comics #id like much hq too #like. the style is more appealing to me than manhwa. but the kind of story told in them is not my fav type #from these three i like manga best but my favorites are still online and whumpy comics ❤

It is strange how I both really do NOT wish for Bloodborne anime to exist because it will probably ruin a lot of mystery and engagement based on fans struggling to interpret, with 'canon' unseen characters designs and worse - DIRECT ANSWERS *horrified woman's scream sound effect*

But also I really WISH for Bloodborne anime to exist because I want to see the favs to emote and do cool stuff in 2D. The internal struggle

#fandomry rambles #like lrb (like lrt but on tumblr) shows tho the best way is to make your own animations #or collab #what i am saying is that bloodborne anime is cool as a concept but it should never be a canonical product #maybe fandom's collaboration that is cool to watch but doesn't bind anyone to accept its headcanons and designs and theories #it is also why i respect titan comics writer so much - they outright said their ideas are not binding canon for anyone #even IF comics are licensed #i mean the history knows anime adaptations of games but like... even if they are rarely perfect ones? #ignoring some stuff not stated/shown in games that is in animes becomes sooooo awkward to ignore (speak from experience) #like imagine bb anime that gives canon designs for adeline or rom or caryll and like #from this point on there is an APPARENT rift between fans who use anime canon and who design their own stuff #i just love it better when everyone is in equal conditions as a fan if that makes sense? sorry it is hard to apply to this fandom fdhds #i just love Enough freedom of interpretation intact and without encouraging towards certain side #for example imagine if titan comics touched upon unseen characters rather than focus on seen + new original ones? #or if that cool fanmade manga centred around lady maria was canon? #bloodborne just leaves exactly as much room for imagination and thinking as NEEDED. it is perfect balance #you don't want more and you don't want less. just enough balance between canon and what you gotta come up with yourself

I need to remind everyone getting mad at people clicking buttons on polls not aimed at them or wanting see results buttons on polls that tumblr only lets you know the poll is over so you can see the results if you voted in it and there's no neat way to save a poll to see results otherwise, curiosity is not a crime and a Tumblr poll is not a consistent method of data collection no matter how rude you are telling people not to vote in the description.

#please calm down #i am begging you #of you want to do a real survey look into the best methods to do so #going '(demographic) DO NOT VOTE THIS IS NOT FOR YOU ' Both does not actually deter people and is also an unnecessary level of agreession #over a fun thing on a social media website #its cool to want resilts and answers to questions but you need to remember no matter how many disclaimers you put #people are going to be curious and have no concept on how many ithers might be curious enough to warp results #if you have room put a see results and if not either understand you cannot control a group by being rude or find a different way to present #the survey you want to do #and if you really want clean results then don't use a tumblr poll at all theyre a toy not survey equipment

my favourite thing abt tumblr mass-finding out about the origins of the “poor little meow meow” phrase is a couple of people in the tags, who listen to things like, i assume, punk or rap, going “oh so THIS is what people got so emotional over? wow they wouldn’t last a day over here” or “ah, this, yeah a couple of guys from our side did it too”. refreshing

#i feel like it would also benefit people to realize that like. the fact that kpop is FULL of random phrases and more and more groups promote #overseas to the point of having the hour of their comeback be convenient for the US rather than just korea... absolutely DOES NOT!!! #DOES NOT!!! mean they all speak perfect (or even reliably passable) english and are knowledgeable about the things english-speaking #internet cares about. every once in a while there's a new twt storm because some idol says or does something insensitive and hurtful to a #group of their fans and its like. well yeah it's a horrible feeling but i cannot overstate how many of these idols just Don't Know Shit #like. idk. black people. i'd say most kpop idols -- who are just some guys and not tumblr/twitter users -- associate black people with like #music artists. rappers. they're cool and they have those cool braids! i'm doing a rap song and i want to be cool like them! lemme put on #those braid extensions! yahoo! <-- everyone hated that. #this is not to say that koreans are wee little babies who shouldn't be held accountable or that they're all stupid #but even despite kpop's insane worldwide popularity i doubt any of those idols are getting worldwide-flavoured sensitivity training #they're all perfect at saying cloyingly sweet bullshit to their fans -- i will love you all for the rest of my life! bro WHO would believe #that it's so embarrassing just sing your fucking songs -- but that's it! hell the younger groups are even bad at knowing how to act in thei #OWN country; with older idols complaining that the newbies talk to them casually (not using the polite language like you should) or even #flat out ignore/don't saw hello or bow to them. twt people are like 'korea has the fastest internet in the world' aye and they use it for #games and teenage internet stuff; not educating themselves on things they know nothing about #the sermon was 100% unintelligible to myg and he just picked it because it had a Tone that must have fit the image of the song in his mind #it's like all those people getting 'chinese' tattoos that say stupid shit like pork belly or baka gaijin or a bunch of misspelled character #tilted by 90 degrees #like i myself didn't know about the cult leader until the sample drama. so #some kp/op fans are absolutely rabid though. especially on twt #shrimp thoughts

[acerikus]

Controversial take but I actually really like the 'for you' tab on tumblr 🧍

90% of the things I see on there are genuinely fandoms I love and wanna see more of and the rest are funny shitposts, it seems to do a pretty good job of tag-matching

Tumblr and algorithms may not be a good combo but it's still infinitely better at it than places like twitter lol (the way twitter categorises topics is... 😬)

#i see a lot of ppl talking about how tumblr has no algorithm but it does! #it just gets ignored a lot bc staff have given us so many annoying 'features' over the years and its conditioned us to ignore them #but I've seen so much cool art and found neat new ppl to follow through it and i think it's ones of the better done fyp algorithms at least #anyway if your dash ever gets slow or all your mutuals are posting about things you don't share an interest in I'd def recommend the tab

I should probably hold off on willy nilly revisions until the draft is complete but I have this need to go back and put more oomph into Alderhill's cultural background...

#i want it to feel like its local to itself #like the Hill and its fairies have Influenced the human people cause they're just as interesting as the animal men and living trees #idk idk. I just feel like I could do better to weave the two worlds together after so many months #big fear: what if it comes off as 'teehee fairies are all just misunderstood and super cool' and not my actual intention #of deconstructing what fairy even means #a fairy is a dangerous animal as much as a man with autism is as much as the neighbor next door is as much as a tree is #hrgh i dunno if that makes sense #it's just a name and names are wiggly and cultural and don't mean anything without context #but a lot of the story was constructed before the true culmination of that idea came to be so there's a lot of work to do #alderhill #sleep rambles #forgive me I'm using tumblr to rubber ducky code #tags facilitate just talking about what's in my head and that's good for idea workings #speaking of which I bungled my wording. clarifications: 1. humans are interesting 2. a fairy is whatever it means in context

i really like vivaldi as a browser but i fucking hate that the picture in picture mode doesn't have any subtitles attached and that it MUTES THE FUCKING TAB IF YOU PAUSE IT. WHY

#goat posts #don't recommend me firefox #i used firefox for a while #it's great #it's just that my tumblr stopped working on firefox so i moved to this one #it's also great #a bit shitty bc its chromium-based but it has cool stuff that i use frequently

I just. Remembered my time on twitter. First time joined a fandom. It was fun. Made a lots of mutuals (despite posting like. Three fanarts.)

And. There were like bad times??? Like for a time a user who can translate japanese stuff kinda claim that they know canon stuff and anything other than that is uncanon? And that one time a user said that bi lesbian is harmful and dangerous to 'actual lesbians' and that one time same user made his mutuals block this one account cause they didn't post about blm cause they were tweeting about capcom announcement? AND THE SAME FUCKIN USER told their mutuals to block an artist cause they drew genderbend like wait. oh no no no no my experience is fckin bad actually what the fuckkkkkkkk—

#[borealis.txt] #its a fuckin warzone. from a chill fandom to a fukin nightmare. all bc some users don't have the nuance of fuckin mindin their own business #im so glad it drove me back to tumblr (the nov event aside) like it's such a toxic environment #it used to be so cool wtf happened. i missed some of the users who has to back off from twitter cause they'regetting harrassed #i really do ... and they were the coolest people too ...

[orionsangel86]

There is a phenomenon happening on Tumblr right now which may be a product of the Twitter exodus or maybe its just modern fandom mentality vehemently rejecting the old, but you guys have GOT to stop being so damn MEAN about fandom.

There are posts circulating on Tumblr right now hating on so many aspects of fandom. Yeah we all know the incorrect quotes format can be cringe and most of the time its the same quotes used for every fandom ever reducing the characters to stereotypes. Yes we know most fandoms scramble to ship the two basic white guys over all the other characters. Yes we know your blorbo probably Does Not Fucking Say That. Yes we know A/B/O is weird AF (especially now its breached containment and found its way into mainstream hetero erotica). Yes we know SuperWhoLock was ridiculous and attempts to make modern shows into a new SuperWhoLock have got old fast.

But do you have to constantly drag these things all the time? Why is it suddenly cool and popular to ridicule and criticise and hate on peoples fun?

Let people be cringe

Let people play in the fandom sandbox

Let people have their fun

Not everything has to be an intellectual critique and it doesn't make you a better person to constantly shit on fandom ON THE FANDOM WEBSITE

Fandoms can be problematic, toxic, and infuriating at times. But all the negativity isn't making things better. Yeah okay some aspects of fandom can be annoying, but must we have so many call out posts go viral on here specifically for hating on parts of fandom culture? Yet people wonder why fandom creators are quitting and there isnt as much art and interaction on here as there used to be.

If you see another negative post shitting on aspects of fandom cross your dash, maybe think before you reblog it. Maybe ask yourself if that post may be hurtful to a mutual? Perhaps youve got a mutual who writers A/B/O or CharacterxReader fanfiction who doesnt wanna see your reblog of the callout post stating reader×character fanfic is gross, or perhaps your mutual creates fun text posts applying quotes to their fave characters and youve just reblogged a 90k+ note post calling them cringy and overdone.

Just THINK please. Its not necessary. We've got to be KINDER to each other. Please don't let this place become like Twitter. Twitter was a toxic cesspool where no one had anything worthwhile to add to the discussion, no one created, everyone was just screaming angry rants into the void. Dont let tumblr become like that, because it will be the death of this place. And where will you go to find fanart and gifsets of your blorbos then?

#fandom #im fed up of seeing these 90k plus posts #that do nothing but shit on core elements of fandom #if you hate fandom that much just fuck off #get off tumblr #its so annoying

Reasons why flies might be rubbing their hands together:

It's chilly out and they're trying to warm up

They just put hand sanitizer/lotion/hand cream on

They're rolling a ball of clay together

What you should do if you see a fly rubbing their hands together:

Leave them alone! It's none of your business

Hope this helped! :)

Hey, you can't really preach for not discriminating against flies and then discriminate against a grasshopper, dude. Not cool.

I think I certainty can, with my past experiences of Grasshoppers always finding the ways to say the most uneducated and baseless takes on my previous posts and discussions. Plus, after the Fly-Grasshopper War of 247 BC (in which my ancestors fought in, mind you) and the consequences that followed it, I think I am well within my rights. But go ahead, frame me as the bad guy here. 🤣

🦗 hopping-along-the-bank Follow

Yeah, you say this and conveniently ignore the socio-economic struggles that grasshoppers have been facing for the past century, many of these issues which were spearheaded by fly conservative politicians in office at the time.

So, yeah, it is rather hypocritical for you to pull out these cards when grasshoppers have also been punished and gotten the short end of the stick throughout bug history.

🪰 crane-fly-wives Follow

The implication that all flies are responsible for a few greedy politicians is quite comical, really. 🥱 Not to mention that many Grasshopper politicians in Bugland and Bugtopia have also had histories of introducing laws that have severely affected communities majorly made up of Flies. But sure, keep arguing with me about this, buddy. I got all day 🤣
