Finally... I remembered to pass my latest drawings through nightshade...
This one I just did at work, I just figured out how to transfer traditional sketches into ibis paint so I've been experimenting with rendering, this is the first drawing where I did this!
So my thing is I'm both a freak and a creature
I LOV MY MUTUALS

Tbh I think arguments on this sight are rarely taken seriously
Like, I saw a thread a while ago about how death was a scam and only 1 person was serious the entire time
Have you ever had any arguments on this website?
That's like asking a guy who just stuck his whole dick into a running blender whether he's experiencing any blood loss.
If I'm not having arguments it's because I'm blocking 'em.
Love that since all the sebi plushies look the same makes it look like he's going to multiple people's houses to get goods for his birthday whenever I see a post from people who r celebrating
having OC’s is crazy for real because no one else gives a fuck meanwhile you’ll be at the function thinking about them (guys who are not real) like
“Emotional abuse works like this: You are screamed at, and then, not knowing any better, you stand up for yourself. You think this is a way of being strong. You think this is a defense tactic.But this only provokes more screaming. Going silent provokes more screaming too, but usually it keeps the threats to the minimum. It keeps it just at screaming and not: a shove down the stairs, or order to pack your stuff and get out. So you learn how to go silent. How to play dead. How to cry without making a noise. How to swallow noise. How to wipe your cheeks, get out of the car, and go about your day. You learn. And when the screaming has stopped, when the two of you are in the car or out to dinner and they’re all smiles, all asking for favors, all questions, you are still hurt and annoyed and want to ask them, how? How can you speak to me like that? How can you pretend you did not say those things? How can you have forgotten? But you’ve learned. So you listen to, “Can I borrow your key”s and “how was your day”s and you play dead. You swallow the noise. And sometimes it doesn’t matter who is speaking to you, it doesn’t matter if they’re a friend, it doesn’t matter if their criticism is constructive, it doesn’t matter. You’ve learned. Any sort of speaking, any raising of the voice, any insult and you play dead.”

This is so true, if you can't vocalize your ideas and are mad at me for it, then that's not my fault! If there is something I'm doing that makes you upset, if you don't vocalize it, i will not know and can't change. You have to let people know or else they, Infact, won't know
I hate that thing some people do where it's like. "I left my wallet on the table to see if you'd say anything" or "I wanted to see if you'd wash the car if I stopped doing it"
Cause like
I dont know about anyone else
But I am perpetually hovering three inches above the strong subconscious belief that everyone knows what they're doing at all times except me, so if you change your normal patterns and I notice, then I will assume it is an intentional choice with a thought-out plan behind it and I will avoid interfering
And if I don't notice, because I won't, because why would I, because not much bothers me and if you don't say anything to indicate you are bothered then how would I KNOW
I swear I saw something about your computer a year ago and thought "that thing probably exploded or something by now" why tf is it still here
Is arson still alive
I need to super glue his charging cord to the port cause the plastic casing is still broken and he keeps shutting off while I'm writing. But ye he's alive
I will say, I used to be on tiktok but left a few years ago. But even now it hasn't changed and I'm glad, everyone on there gets up to the most spiteful goofy mischievous antics and it's literal art. Like yes I love it here on tumbler cause everyone is an equal amount not fully mentally well, but on tiktok they realized someone can say "wouldn't it be funny if we started a trend where we try and steal the most stupid and inconvenient shit like this toilet from my school bathroom" and everyone said "ya sure why not"
Nope now it’s at the point that i’m shocked that people off tt don’t know what’s going down. I have no reach but i’ll sum it up anyway.
SCOTUS is hearing on the constitutionality of the ban as tiktok and creators are arguing that it is a violation of our first amendment rights to free speech, freedom of the press and freedom to assemble.
SCOTUS: tiktok bad, big security concern because china bad!
Tiktok lawyers: if china is such a concern why are you singling us out? Why not SHEIN or temu which collect far more information and are less transparent with their users?
SCOTUS (out loud): well you see we don’t like how users are communicating with each other, it’s making them more anti-american and china could disseminate pro china propaganda (get it? They literally said they do not like how we Speak or how we Assemble. Independent journalists reach their audience on tt meaning they have Press they want to suppress)
Tiktok users: this is fucking bullshit i don’t want to lose this community what should we do? We don’t want to go to meta or x because they both lobbied congress to ban tiktok (free market capitalism amirite? Paying off your local congressmen to suppress the competition is totally what the free market is about) but nothing else is like TikTok
A few users: what about xiaohongshu? It’s the Chinese version of tiktok (not quite, douyin is the chinese tiktok but it’s primarily for younger users so xiaohongshu was chosen)
16 hours later:
Tiktok as a community has chosen to collectively migrate TO a chinese owned app that is purely in Chinese out of utter spite and contempt for meta/x and the gov that is backing them.
My fyp is a mix of “i would rather mail memes to my friends than ever return to instagram reels” and “i will xerox my data to xi jinping myself i do not care i share my ss# with 5 other people anyway” and “im just getting ready for my day with my chinese made coffee maker and my Chinese made blowdryer and my chinese made clothing and listening to a podcast on my chinese made phone and get in my car running on chinese manufactured microchips but logging into a chinese social media? Too much for our gov!” etc.
So the government was scared that tiktok was creating a sense of class consciousness and tried to kill it but by doing so they sent us all to xiaohongshu. And now? Oh it’s adorable seeing this gov-manufactured divide be crossed in such a way.
This is adorable and so not what they were expecting. Im sure they were expecting a reluctant return to reels and shorts to fill the void but tiktokers said fuck that, we will forge connections across the world. Who you tell me is my enemy i will make my friend. That’s pretty damn cool.
curse be damned my boy can still fag it up
It's ok dawg sometimes it's just what you gotta do
Embarrassed myself a few days ago and since then I've been periodically going like this
Ignore the part where he gets naked that's not part of it.
I've been thinking about this for a hot minute. I first used Duolingo for learning Spanish, and recently I started learning japanese
Now one thing I've been told many times by others learning the language is that the grammar was horrible, and as soon as I got to a point where it tried to teach grammar... Absolutly it does kinda suck (the apps grammar, not the languages grammar). I will say I loved learning kana on it because it taught kana in a way that made it super easy for me to memorize. But that's literally all you can use it for
Which brings me to my main point; why would you make an app literally useless. Like, kana is important to learn, but that's just the alphabet, so why is the main focus of the app - language learning - unusable?
On top of this, I read a Reddit post made by someone who used the app for Japanese, and they admitted that the forums were actually a significant part of being able to use the app, because others using the forums would correct mistakes made by the app. Why would you take away a part of the app that is literally helping people learn the language. Which is. The entire point of the app. What.
It isn't about actually helping people anymore and I hate it
If anyone was wondering, Duolingo just got even worse.
i’m a bit high
i’ve always felt like being born on the first of the month was a lil fun and fancy but then i began to wonder if that’s just how everyone feels about their birthday. so i made a poll about it.
free my girl. she did all that but so did a male character and nobody cared
Like werewolves but its actually a good thing they turn into wolves cause they get to be wild and not be held back by the chains of human society
too many stories about turning yourself into a monster as a metaphor for pretending to be something you aren't and losing yourself in the process. not enough stories about turning yourself into a monster as a metaphor for choosing to openly embrace yourself even if it's strange to other people
What the fuck unshoot that gnome RIGHT NOW
just shot a gnome
Thissss
I can write a lot but it's because I write a first, very trashy draft that is very bland and isn't very fancy or good sounding. This helps me just get whatever I'm thinking about onto the paper first, then I go over it when it's done and make it sound good! That way you have your scenes and everything that happens written down, and you don't have to worry about things like transitions and whatnot until you start editing it!
Throwback thursday to when I was like 12 and I was putting out new writing DAILY...... Like entire Chapters of my then-current wips just, over an afternoon. What the fuck was I on
THANKYOUTHANKYOUTHANK YOU FOR SAYING THIS YES THIS EXACTLY
Just because I'm an adult doesn't mean I'm no longer a child full of wonder and curiosity. I get to drive through fields everyday and experience the beautiful clouds above me and feel just as excited about going to meet my friends, and I get to make the meals I want to make, go the places I want to go
I'm still a child, I just now know how to make decisions for myself!
This morning I was waiting in my car for the Dollar General to open and it was raining enough that my windows fogged up so I started doodling on them and it was such a lovely moment that I cried when I got home. Being an adult isn’t so bad and it never was. There will never be a “this is the last time I feel this” u will always want to draw when ur windows fog up tbh.
I wish there was a way to completely OPT OUT of AI. Like you could set your ENTIRE Internet browser to NOT shove it down your throat.
When social media was getting big, you could just NOT get a Facebook or a Twitter. It was simple as that. You can't do that with AI.
Trying to find a job? It goes straight to an AI filter. Trying to look at art? Here's 100+ ai shit. Trying to look up who was in what movie from the 1980s? GOOGLE GEMINI IS HERE WITH THE COMPLETELY WRONG ANSWER!
Someone PLEASE create a way to allow people to get AI the FUCK OUT of our lives if we DO NOT WANT IT!
Sorry your boyfriend died and came back and died and came back and died and came back and died and came back again. He was trying to find you.
Oh y'all... I can edit my traditional sketches into digital pieces now... If I access webglaze it's over for yall
I WANT PROBLEMS. ALWAYS
WRITING IS JUST 'WHAT IF I MADE UP A PROBLEM AND THEN MADE UP PEOPLE TO BE SAD ABOUT IT' BUT WHY IS THE MADE-UP PROBLEM MAKING ME SAD TOO. WHO GAVE FICTION PERMISSION TO ATTACK ME PERSONALLY.
Took me a minute because at first I was like "why did they edit what he said? Does he not say that in the original clip?" And had to remember that he Infact did not say that and fandom is controlling my mind again
