Different Sketches!

@millidew i just saw your pokeattorney au and wanted to show you this meow

Could you reblog this if you enjoy seeing your writer friends ramble about their wips on your dash?

your tumblr experience is not complete unless you follow:

the great beast

strange transgenders

the depressed gamer

prolific but unmarketable artist

1 old white guy who posts shit like: photo of vinyl record collection, photo of breakfast, photo of beautiful fat woman, photo of cigar

extremely niche interest

robosexual

I've been keeping it off my face as much as I can on video, but I'm livid about the TikTok ban.

I have about 100,000 followers on that app. I joined during the pandemic. I was lucky to find a community full of incredible people, many of whom I now consider lifelong friends. Because of the community I found on that app, I found space to experiment with my gender presentation. I was able to come out as nonbinary (to feel SAFE ENOUGH to come out as nonbinary) because of that app.

I've seen a few Tumblr posts in which people gloat they never got into TikTok. Good for you. You won't suffer emotionally, and that makes you feel superior. But if you have no concept of what that app has meant for more than 170,000,000 Americans (that's half of all Americans!), many of whom do not have access to community in physical spaces, kindly sit down.

The ban constitutes the largest mass layoff in American history. We will lose billions of dollars in our domestic economy. Over 7 million small businesses are shuttering because of the ban. You will feel the effect of that whether or not you were on the app. If you can't grasp the significance of that, again: kindly sit down.

The language of the TikTok ban has set a dangerous precedent for the American government to shutter any tech platforms they deem "dangerous" for arbitrary, undisclosed, nebulous reasons. This will affect Americans' ability to organize, spread information, and protest. They have effectively banned our right to assembly in digital spaces. This is the greatest infringement of free speech that has ever occurred in the United States. If you can't grasp the significance of that, either: kindly sit down.

This is bigger than "never falling for the TikTok craze." This is an enormous governmental overreach sanctioned by our own Supreme Court. It's bigger than teens doing silly dances you can sneer at from your smug high horse.

And if you can't grasp that: Kindly. Sit. Down.

I made a minor little redesign thing for sneasler

mostly just made it fluffier, less empty and beefed up its claws. Also tried to "fix" it's proportions a bit, which I think are its main problem to me. It just feels so... off, like an undefined wet noodle. And its head is way too big for a fully evolved pokemon (which I didn't really change oops)

its genuinely one of my least favorite pokemon just for it's off-ness, but just tiny tweaks make it look so likeable, and in fan art it usually looks great

Anyway props to everyone who likes it just the way it is, the joy of pokemon is that there's something for everyone

something about the unreality of being the player character, thus aware of the world's nature but looking away for the sake of the others

Yeah, sorry, having a mortal form and shit to do is too much bad sensory rn, can you just bury me in the snow instead?

my mental state this past week

ouppy…. ❤️💙
