online communities are so strange because people slip away so easily. you can be on here for years, folding people you've never met into the fabric of your daily life, and then they disappear, leaving only ghost posts scattered across tumblr behind. or their blog stays dormant, for weeks, months, years, until you're only still following them because you remember that they love sunflowers or they were kind to you when they didn't have to be or the last thing they posted was sad and raw and you still worry about them sometimes.
and sometimes they come back when you least expect it, years later, even, and there's this sudden rush of relief like there you are, there you are, even though you barely knew each other.
there's a strange kind of love to it. i don't know you and i want to hold your hand across miles and time zones and oceans. i can still see the imprint of you in this community you left. you don't think anyone will notice or care when you're gone, but we notice and we care and we wish you well.
i hope you're all okay out there. i hope the sun is shining on your face and you are breathing deeply. i miss you.
A compilation of stuff I know about drawing Asian faces and Asian culture! I feel like many “How-To-Draw” tutorials often default to European faces and are not really helpful when drawing people of other races. So I thought I’d put this together in case anyone is interested! Feel free to share this guide and shoot me questions if you have any! I’m by no means an expert, I just know a few things from drawing experience and from my own cultural background.
Some stuff. First one is based on Clown's skin, second one — drawing from my head. I probably should make some references I dunno
So I want to laugh at Musk picking fights with other billionaires, because it is, objectively speaking, extremely funny
Especially when you consider that his argument essentially boils down to the idea that other companies deciding which platforms they want their brand associated with is somehow infringing on his ability to participate in the "open market place." Suggesting that the only "fair" way to support a "competitive" market is to FORCE advertisers to advertise on his platform even if they don't agree with his practices.
However I also feel compelled to point out that he is possibly one of the most dangerous men on earth right now, and he literally must be stopped. The kind of precedent he is trying to set here would be disastrous for all of us.
He's essentially trying to make boycotts illegal at any level. If he can do it to the giants, nothing will stop him from doing it to us, which we already know has been their plan all along.
They want to make any form of dissent illegal. Now is the time to dissent with all your might.
I think a lot of them are bots and psyops, regarding the hate you're getting. Like there has been a HUGE influx in the laziest, ugliest, and nastiests MAGA propaganda ever on this site starting around last year's election. I think it's to make them seem more numerous than they really are, as a way to overwhelm people, make them feel powerless, and decrease morale. That, and the anti-Harris anti-voting bot/psyops, though they seemed to be the more effective manipulation on Tumblr. But space nazi's stocks are almost below $114, and people are protesting all around the country, the military is on our side, and I heard the Supreme Court can potentially order to have trump and everyone who works under him removed due to them continuously ignoring court orders. And at least some US news groups aren't holding back the truth, like MSNBC. So that's good news, and proof that everyone's collective efforts with protests and boycotts are having an impact! And proof that these nazis and their supporters are smaller in number and weaker than they made themselves look.
Also, I just want to stress an important thing this mystery person said: "protests and boycotts are having an impact."
It's true. Proof? One of the most conservative justices on the U.S. Supreme Court just called Trump out for his dangerous overreach regarding the Judicial Branch. And Elon is fucking terrified, which is why he keeps tweeting about how unfair the Telsa Takedown movement is. We're hitting him where it hurts... no, not his shriveled balls, but his wealth.
So, keep fucking with this tin-pot dictator and his boot-licking sycophants.
There probably should be Chara, but I realize that too late sorry
Probably I would regret about this, but I should give it a try.
Some lazy concept art, but you can be sure — I have separate notebook with more drafts, I just don't have any energy to redraw it in Ibispaint. Sorry
I need to post something, so I probably would just post all my arts, not only undertale related. In otherwise blog will be empty
