Spiralling-spires - The Spiral's Special Little Boy

I remembered what it was about ten seconds after posting

Anyways if the distortion can be summoned by knocking on a wall and wanting to talk to it, that implies that it’s constantly aware of all walls and the emotions of the people near them. Distortion would probably vibe with the web in an alternate universe

I was having complex thoughts about the distortion, truly expanding my concept of reality by way of the funny gay door thing, and then i got distracted and forgor

Love emerging from the void, reblogging a bunch of memes, and disappearing again

Anyways hello gay people

1992

Yeah no this is definitely a thing, i got two more today and one of them had an age and it was 23

Ive noticed something through the process of reporting the endless barrage of spambots.

Either the bio does not have an age, or the age is 23.

Is 23 a sexy age? Do you automatically gain +10 sex appeal points for the year that you’re 23 and lose them on your 24th birthday? Is 23 a common “random” number? Am I actually just being influenced by recency bias and subconsciously ignoring any other ages?

Am I overanalyzing the age stated in the bio of a spambot? Yes, yes I believe I am.

The tma fandom seems to have unlocked our psychic capabilities. Let me explain.

If you’re on the tma tag, or just have a lot of tma art on your dash, you see art of characters you have only heard the voices of. And you go “Oh, that’s Jon!” “Oh, that’s Melanie!” “Oh, that’s Tim!” And only a handful of these characters have distinctly described traits (like Gerry’s eye tattoos), and fewer still have recurring appearances, or that we hear the voices of. And yet we all agree, roughly, on what they look like. Even if someone has a different design, instead of going “who the hell is that”, you go “well, that’s not what I think Georgie looks like, but I know it’s Georgie without having to check the tags”.

This gets even more interesting when you look at Sasha. Because she gets *replaced*. And so many drawings of not!Sasha label her as Sasha for the bit/for spookiness, but we all somehow *know* when we’re looking at not!Sasha, even when the drawing has no other spookiness.

Ive seen this extend too far sometimes, with a lot of Malevolent art being inadvertently assigned to tma characters, but rarely have I looked at a piece of tma art and gone “who the hell is that??”

Some of this comes down to a collective agreement on designs that happened before I got to the fandom - by the time I got here, pretty much everyone’s designs were largely nailed down. Even so, art where the designs deviate from The Socially Agreed Design are still readily recognizable as the characters. I’m getting to see this with Alice, too - I can look at almost any Alice drawing and go “yep, that’s Alice” and she’s only existed in our collective consciousness for like three months and her design isn’t solidified yet.

Sorry if i just spam liked several dozen posts on your account i swear im not a bot im just being autistic 😭

before the poll, a quick definition of terms:

"mutual" - you found this post from a mutual (on their blog or your dash) "following" - you found this post from someone you're following, but who isn't following you "random" - you found this by scrolling through someone's blog, who you don't follow. this includes people following you "For You" - you found this on the For You page "recommended" - you found this in a "Check out these blogs" popup, or a "recommended" post when looking at a different post "other" - you found this post some other way. comment how? "reblog ✅" - you're going to reblog, queue, or schedule this post "reblog ❌" - you're NOT going to reblog, queue, or schedule this post

with that out of the way:

HAPPY BPM DAYYYYYYYYYYYY

Happy Brutal Pipe Murder Day, everyone! Here are some of my favorite Leitner memes to celebrate. How are you celebrating?

Hey if jon feels the emotions of the statement giver do you think he was feeling jonah’s elation in 160 despite himself being beyond terrified? Hell, was he even terrified at the time? Was he even himself? We don’t know how the “briefly assuming the personality of the statement giver” works. Was he, briefly, just Jonah?
