Godlike in Comparison

Oh, how far you have fallen.

(literally)

Drawing I did that took me like, a week to finish or something crazy lol. The golden accents and parts of his antennae are reflective, but it didn't come through super well in the pictures (some of the snow is glittery too).

The first meeting of Pebbles is one of my favorite moments of the game, and Saint's campaign did a really good thematic mirror of it (imo).

Wanted to take better pictures of it than this, but I've been procrastinating it for a week and just wanted to post it at this point, so sorry for the bad lighting/curled paper.

doodles for when it's raining and you're gaming

aka impressionsTM from my first time playing rain world

[endystarflyer]

What's on the menue?

what if its some sort of video game? session 2: minigame

yeah dont ask me how long it took sjhvdagdvhad but also i had this idea after watching one episode ahahahah

[endystarflyer]

I’ve been playing rain world recently and I’ve gotten excited enough about it to make a post finally. Here’s my drawing of five pebbles after Rivulet leaves for the last time

[endystarflyer]

Dwarves are short, powerfully built, with presumably a strong circulatory system and a culturally strong warrior ethos as well as a cultural tradition of strong and intricate craftsmanship. All of these factors make them ideal jet fighter pilots.

[endystarflyer]

Well, I still haven’t posted anything. It’s a lot of effort to get photos off an SD card ok? I have to get out my computer *and* my camera

[endystarflyer]

A warning: I write by swiping on my phone so I’ll likely post the sort of grammatically incoherent text that’s technically real words. Maybe some of it will be funny.

[endystarflyer]

I think I’ll start posting more random stuff. Clearly I’m not using this for chemistry. I want to have a place to share my projects so maybe this can be it. I’m also trying out some photography. We’ll see if I ever actually post anything but I’ll try.

why are all these modern aus for the Odyssey set in a high school. where's the retelling where Odysseus is just a guy lost in an airport who keeps missing his connecting flights home due to a comical series of delays and disgruntled airline employees

Now for the final round!

@hellsitegenetics

I love them

I didn't know I needed to know that the weed-smoking girlfriends post was genetically a wolf, but I did, and I do. Also puts great stuff on my dash.

it’s so fun to be scrolling unhinged posts and then boom. an organism!

so many moths‼ also, unexpected comedy with some of the matches

perfect blend of silly and informative, and makes for an excellent punchline at the end of a long post. puts creatures on my dash. literally what more could you ask for

It's a really unique blog concept and a lot of times the results are pretty funny. It's great when the sequence matches the post content too!

Creatures 👍

Finds beautiful creatures out of the mess of the hellsite

Offers finality AND gives us a creechur.

I love them. English speakers talk like moths

If this blog wins, they could run the text of the winning announcement, and determine the post's genus and species!

They're also very good about tagging the type of creature depicted in the results, so as long as you mute tags of creatures you don't want to see, it's a very fun time seeing iconic legacy posts (and new submissions) being reduced down to a string of letters and assigned a random species of fish or moth or something!

uhh it’s cool

BLAST

There are so many weird bugs in the world

Yippee!!

If, as Haldane said, God has an inordinate fondness for beetles, then surely this blog proves that Tumblr has an inordinate fondness for moths.

Top tier blog as a geneticist, I love seeing obscure organisms and MOTH

Admin got rate limited after trying to blast the bee movie

the knowledge of biology to pull this off (i have taken one biology class in my life) and also the work to find all the strings honestly deserves quite a bit of praise

This gimmick blog has it all: science, pictures of animals, interaction with the text of other peoples' posts, interesting information, and a unique and fun premise. As a biologist, I'm rooting for hellsitegenetics to reach the end and take the tournament, because it is truly a standout among gimmick blogs.

If they win, perhaps this blog too shall become a cool organism :3

@hasgavlebockenburneddownyet

What's more happy holiday cheer than cheering on the destruction of a giant straw goat?

The birds may have won 2023, but I believe in humanity's capability for arson for 2024 <3

a vote for me is a vote for arson! This message was approved by hasgavlebockenburneddownyet

gavle is SUCH a public service and holiday feature

what's more tumblr than comical destruction and holidays?

sometimes you just gotta vote with your matchsticks

Bringing a cultural staple to tumblr since 2021

Arson is so much more fun

It would be really funny and ironic if it survives the tournament

you have no idea how much joy watching the chronicling of the gavlebocken brings me every year

hasgavlebockenburneddownyet provides an essential public service

always love seeing a bit of Swedish history on my dash 'Swedish bamboo season'

the goat account is peak gimmick blog

If I don't get to beat the goat then nobody does. -pointless-achievements

Never ask Tumblr to choose between lies and arson! The winner threatens by nature to rip apart the very fabric of our DNA!

goat statues made out of straw are exciting and interesting

I wanna see things burn

the goat is an essential part of tumblr culture and the goat blog is a sacred keeper of the tumblr high holidays

watching to see if the big straw goat has burned down each year is a true delight, something I never knew existed until tumblr and the blog dedicated to it

the incredibly focused nature of @/hasgavlebockenburneddownyet is what makes their gimmick superior.

Please guys bite gavlebocken

Look, I'm Danish. I was put on this earth to annoy the Swedes and vice versa, but even I voted for @/hasgavlebockenburneddownyet

gavlebocken is also such a fun name and this blog informed be about its existence, so for that I am grateful

hasgavlebockenburneddownyet is providing a vital service! Every year, people rely on their updates regarding the fate of our most beloved Yule Goat! How could they NOT deserve the win!?

sacred anti-corporate arson

a vote for gävlebocken is a vote for anarchy!

pls vote for them they're the funniest gimmick keeping track on the funniest phenomena in recent human history, like when i look at their acc i think to myself this is what tumblr was created for

the goat is the GOAT

HASGAVLEBOCKENBURNEDDOWNYET DESERVES TO WIN, I have them on post alert for a REASON

the holiday season wouldn't be the same without them

they do important reporting. Do you look at the news and be like 'the reporters aren't doing work they're just telling you whats happening.' Have some respect for the goat news

let the weird burnt sacrificial ritual of it all appeal to you

nothing makes my December more interesting, arson should win

doesn't barge in on other peoples posts which is always a good thing in my books. not a fan when obnoxious gimmick blogs turn a decent post into a garbled mess

I liked the idea of the wings replacing the arms so he has to hold stuff with his feet. This is the first colored sketch in my sketchbook!

Made an oc maker challenge for rw community! Inspired by @shimmeringembers & @thenalanita-art ♡

Have fun!

All my pictures from tonight. Even in Bellingham they were pretty visible over the light pollution. I wish I could have captured the flashes of light across the sky but they were too fast for the camera to catch.

Using the Helldivers vs Sony battle as an illustrative example to teach gamers about the power of unions and collective bargaining as effective tools for opposing corporate chicanery.
