Me: “The food webs we try to teach children and the public are too simple to get the point across. Why do they never bother to show the more intricate relationships between specific species? It can’t be that hard to represent with basic teaching tools... I’ll make the thing!”
The thing:
Me: “....I get it now.”
I don’t like being referred to as a boy
Tbh I think fandom generally needs to get better at sitting with the uncomfortable fact that a story/fanwork/meme/whatever can hurt one person and help another
BRUH a dude I know from work came in for the first time in months and I thought he looked different but couldn't figure out why?? So I asked if he'd changed his hair and he was like "BITCH I GOT TOP SURGERY"
I was a dreams moth! Back then the seasons were much more obvious due to how small the maps were, which made it very easy for me to find. I was able to find and complete some of the quests even before I’d made it through to the end of valley/wasteland with the help of a friend. Of course I locked myself out of the area and failed the challenges numerous times, but that’s beside the point.
Hey I'm curious. Did anyone not get any cosmetics during their starter season because they didn't understand the game?
Bonus: Reblog and tell me the season that you got sky during, helps with the sample size.
My story/ramble under the cut
I'm a passage moth, but...... I had absolutely no idea there were cosmetics or even seasons when I started last year. I played up through forest and stopped at Valley, as I just didn't get what I was doing. So... result is i have nothing from my starting season.
I finally got around to drawing myself a pfp, so I get to introduce yall to my fursona/skykid:
This is Sleepy!
They are an absolute gremlin of a creature, their favorite activities consisting of stealing shiny objects, collecting trinkets, and sleeping. They found that slug while weeding their garden and played with it for an hour.
And bonus the ✨pajama monster✨!
omG I SEARCHED GOOGLE FOR A SEWING MACHINE DIAGRAM AND THIS CAME UP I CAN’T STOP LAUGHING
Ok, I am an avid Reddit user which I know must be crazy 😭 I also know about splatoon. I'm also gay! So tell me why there's a splatoon community fighting over the Valentine's splatoon art because it shows two gay couples and people are like OMG so cool splatoon is supporting pride. Which in my eyes is so obvious because splatoon is a very woman-centered lesbian game. I'm not going to sit here and lie to you. I've always thought to platoons for the gays, theys and women. There are people in the comment section of this Reddit post arguing how splatoon is an escape from the real world in politics and social issues and how people don't have to be shoving gay pride down their throats. Excuse me?? Splatoon? An escape from politics? Splatoon? An escape from gay people? This has taught me everything I have to know about splatoon fans which seems to be that they can't read or use their eyes?? Splatoon is inherently political in a more racism kind of way. That's super obvious. It's like damn near on the nose with Marina and Pearl. You know what's also damn near on the nose with Marina and Pearl? Them having feelings for each other!! Maybe even romantic?? It feels like these are either new fans who don't read the story and just play because ooh super fun shooter game on switch!!! Or these are old fans that have always had a problem with the gay parts of splatoon but still play it?? And that's even worse cuz like why even play at that point?? Btw the sub is called saltoon. From what I understand, it appears to be getting taken over by trumpies who are taking over the gayest game of all time for whatever reason? Stay safe out there y'all. People are becoming a lot more courageous and openly racist recently
this is your random reminder to CHECK IF YOU'RE STILL HAVING FUN
are you enjoying scrolling tumblr? watching youtube? reading that book? playing that game? drawing that art? doing that activity? if not,
YOU CAN STOP AND DO SOMETHING ELSE
you don't have to stick to something that you are doing for fun if it isn't fun for you anymore. You can come back! If you've loved it before you are likely to love it again! but you can stop!
Don't get stuck in a loop of doing something that you think should be fun when it isn't! You can put it down for a bit! Maybe that's the very thing that will make it fun again later!
