Oh Iām utterly fascinated by how people of the past expressed the unexplainable through art and poetry, turning their turmoil from being alone and misunderstood into something beautiful that all may see.
Honestly a shame that people now just whine about not enough flags to represent them when at some point in the past many individuals would not even know how to justify what they were feeling nor find people alike, and to atleast find comfort in the solitude escaped through music and literature, fanaticising about worlds where such a thing was normalised or turning themselves into a beast, to share with the world the level of their inner workings.

Despite that being still a thing then#Barely anyone if any at all could consciously be aware of what they were feeling was something normal to them#Most saw these beyond normal people as beasts. Creatures worth putting down.#So it isnāt strange that people began to experiment with creation to tell the world how they feel or see themselves#Show everyone the true self and inner workings#Just how many have portrayed themselves through their work and we donāt even know about it?#Anyways sorry not sorry for the rant

Novice sewing pattern: Cut out shapes. Line up the little triangles on the edges. Stitch edges together. We've also included step-by-step assembly instructions with illustrations.
Novice knitting pattern: yOU MUSt uNDerstANd thE SECret cOdE CO67 (73, 87, 93) BO44 (63, 76, 90) 28 (32, 34) slip first pw repeat 7x K to end *kl (pl) 42 * until 13" (13, 13, 15) join new at 30 pl for 17 rows ssk 27 k2tog mattress lengthwise BO and sacrifice a goat to the knitting gods. WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU WANT "INSTRUCTIONS," I JUST GAVE THEM TO YOU
#knitting#no it's not a real pattern but I can't write one that makes sense because I have no freaking clue what any of that means#How do you make things that aren't basic rectangles#Why has every knitter I've asked for help just said 'patterns are easy; you just have to know how to read them' & then refused to teach me#Where do I even find a goat to sacrifice#How do I join the pattern cult#I am so confused#I've been knitting for almost a decade but I can only make scarves and potholders#I learned one (1) stitch by watching a YouTube video and none of my friends or family knit so I have no IRL resources#And nobody I meet seems to want to take the time to explain the rest to me#I taught myself to sew through trial and error but that doesn't really work with knitting because error is pretty much just... Unraveling?#Anyway sorry for the tag rant I'm just frustrated that I see pretty things I want to make but the instructions are in an alien language#And the gap between 'absolute novice' and 'intermediate' seems to be about 20 years of experience and formal instruction

can anyone explain to me at what point rose tyler was "unbelievably stupid". was it when she was inventing transdimensional travel
#what about her makes you think she's stupid. answer quickly#the whole POINT of the rtd companions - yes all of them - is that any ordinary person can shine when given the chance to#and when someone believes in them.#even besides that there is no point before during or after rose's time on the show when she is shown to be stupid.#she doesn't have like. the doctor's vast universal knowledge sure#but the point is that she's smarter than him in other ways! they balance each other out which is why they're such a good team#like the london eye scene in the very first episode for example.#that is aaaaall about how the doctor misses very simple things and needs someone with him who doesn't#all the best companions have a moment like this. thinking about when bill realizes the mother-son thing in knock knock#anyway. i'm ranting sorry. this post just really pissed me off#imagine missing the point so completely#and being so classist that you can't comprehend that dropping out of school is not a symbol of lack of intelligence#rose tyler#doctor who#delia.txt

I'm dead serious some of y'all need to stop commenting shit like "Kill it with fire!!1!" on every post of a bug or any "scary" creature you see. Idgaf if you have a phobia or how many legs it has, having such a violent hateful reaction to any animal is just not normal behavior. And that goes double for posts by someone who's happy about the creature, I'm not asking you to go cuddle bugs just to mind your own business, people don't want to hear how much you hate something they like.
Edit since I forgot this was the piss on the poor website: Yes ofc ppl should tag pics of bugs so that those who don't wanna see them can filter them, and yes I know ppl can't choose what they are scared of, but wishing violent death on an animal, wanting to drive a species to extinction and telling people who like unconventional animals that you hate them and wish they died is still not normal behavior, hope that helps.
#not eli's art#eli rambles#rant#nature#animals#invertebrates#insects#bugs#bugblr#idk what else to tag#sorry i really needed to get this out of my system#not kuro#not yoi#anyway i personally love bugs and i gave a lil kiss to a grasshopper today :)

I've never really self-identifed as butch because my style sensibility leans more toward effeminate gay man/eccentric grandparent but while my girlfriend was visiting, the clasps that held the shoulder strap of her handbag kept breaking (thanks temu), and finally I got fed up and fixed it by
a) wrenching off the old clasps with a pair of plyers and
b) replacing them with the only clasps I had on hand, which were 2 giant carabiners
and yeah, now that I think about it, that is incredibly butch lesbian behavior.
#butch lesbian#butch4femme#my girlfriend calls me her butch which#was kinda offputting at first because#as much as I wanted to id as butch#it felt wrong to claim that label with my floral print shirts and pastels and sparkly eyeshadow#I still struggle with it somewhat but it makes me happy#to be butch in my beloveds eyes#and everything that means to her#(someone to protect and take care of them#someone who fixes broken things and solves difficult problems#a romantic gesturer and a prince)#anyway sorry for the#tag rant#enjoy the silly story#of me definitely without a doubt#butchin it up over here#cara mia#acornposting

I cannot express enough that if your reaction, as a hobby artist, to not getting that many notes on your art is to say "maybe I should just stop doing art altogether" you need to stop posting art to tumblr
not necessarily forever, not even for long, but just stop putting your art on here and start doing it for you again, remember why you enjoyed doing art in the first place and stop relying on the attention of faceless people on the internet for your enjoyment of your hard work
believe me, I get it, nothing crushes the artistic soul quite like labouring for hours on a piece only for it to get like 10 notes, so you need to find your own source of joy in the act of creation and a lot of the time that means making art and not showing it to anybody
#not art#listen#for real#this is not about any one person because i've seen posts about it from a bunch of people#you think i post everything here? buddy i dont even post half my stuff here#every drawing you see is preceded by five more just like it#that never see my cursor close to the save button#i have a sketchbook i draw in regularly that i do'nt show to a single goddam person#i make cutout art from gels i steal from work and stick them to my windows and do paintings in my living room just for me#because that it the only way you are ever going to be able to retain your original love of art#is by doing it for the sake of doing it#not for the sake of seeing how many people stop and stare#anyways i'm sorry if this sounds terse#but i'm so sick of seeing artists put all their self-esteem and happiness in the hands of a blogging website#stop selling yourself short by measuring your self worth by how many reblogs you get and what people say in the tags#your artistry and your happiness are worth more than that#if you're an artist for a living that's another story#but even then#even then#anyways sorry i'm done ranting

big congrats to rdr fandom for having some of the worse moral posturing around shipping iāve ever seen. like congrats for shipping the canon hetero pairings and your 1 or 2 allocated gay fanon pairings. also congrats for inventing the word āpsuedoincestā to scare the crows off any pairings you deem unacceptable.
like iām sorry, but the van der linde gang are not a family and if you believe that, dutch has manipulated you too. dutch uses the family framework to keep those he manipulates loyal. hosea and dutch are not the āmum and dadā, thatās fanon characterisation. arthur and john are not the sons or brothers, they were both boys groomed by dutch into a lonely and selfish life, robbing and stealing. and though they are close and brotherLIKE, they are not brothers.
another newsflash- you can have messy romantic feelings with a friend that is so close you consider them a sibling. itās not wholesome, itās a bit weird and intense. but thatās kind of the point. thatās why people ship it. weāre not getting off on incestuous dynamics because the incest is not in the room w us rn. idk how to make it any clearer.
it just upsets me to see a lot of good rdr artists getting smeared on twitter by fans who think theyāre a better person for not touching the morally dubious pairings. personally, it makes sense for me that this group of outlaws in the 1890s, whoāve lived so close to each other, would have intimate relationships. theyāre not a cute family living out in the country, theyāre a group of criminals whoāve done a lot worse than fuck a guy that theyāve grown up with. itās so odd to imprint 2024 shipping morality politics onto a bunch of cowboys from 200 years ago. i guarantee your not winning any awards for playing it safe in fandom.
#rant#vent#fandom police#shipping police#i literally canāt engage w rdrtwt theyāre mostly like this#sorry for the rant#morston#i guess this is about vandermorgan cause i donāt ship that but i will defend the rights of those who do#and vanderbell#cause they canāt even call that one incest but hate it anyway cause both dudes arenāt saints

tumblrs being transphobic, with the ceo himself starting an actual harassment campaign against a transfem & also banning transfems who post abt it.
Oh shit, I had not heard about that.
I would like to say I donāt understand why this shit keeps happening, but I actually do understand it way too well. It just makes me so sad and angry. Especially on a site where people find and make their communities.
So much of this is about ego, and the people with power wielding that power to protect themselves and failing to protect others with it. A mere hint of negative sentiment towards them is harassment that is dealt with immediately and harshly, but a dozen complaints about discrimination or threats or bullying take ages to process and frequently come to unsatisfactory moderation decisions.
Whatever the sentiments of the people running this hellsite, you are always welcome in my corner of the internet, wherever you find it. You are all wonderful, and we all deserve to feel that part of this space belongs to us and those to whom we can connect.
Transphobia has no place on tumblr, period. Or anywhere else in society for that matter. It is that which should be being rooted out.
#this is not related to herpetology#except that it is#because trans rights as well as those of every other member of LGBTQ+ affect every field#every fandom#every one#this is the first time ever I have written out a long tag rant and decided it needed to go into the main body of the post instead#meaning I had to type the whole thing again because you cannot easily copy and paste large numbers of tags#But I think it is important to see the full message from the start#rather than relying on someone else to screencap it#which I always appreciate#but not everyone always sees#anyway I am sorry especially to those in the community who are trans and who feel this most acutely#I stand with you#and I think the bulk of the community here does too#and that voice is something the leaders need to listen to#virtue signalling is not enough#actions speak louder than words#okay real tags now for searchability purposes:#about me#tumblr#trans issues#transphobia#transgender

as much as i LOVE LOVE LOVE agatharioā¦ i really do hope people realize that this isnāt a romance show :/ idk just seeing all of the billy hate has been annoying as fuck imo. also people being just borderline homophobic towards him/joe ??? idk ???
like this show isnāt ABOUT the romance, itās honestly been about family/family trauma/generational trauma. like this entire time. (agatha and alice and billy ft. their mommy issues like. also jen being a midwife, and honestly idrk about lilia but thereās gotta be something there too.)
alsoā¦ thereās still 3 more episodes and iām 85% sure episode 9 is ALLLLL about agatha and rioās past. like guys there is still time !!! itās called a slow burn theyāre not going to randomly just kiss and make up in the middle of the series !!! we just also need to talk about this other main character for a bit !! because he is important too !! sorry ig !!!
anyways yeah no i could keep going iām really annoyed rn :/
#also before anyone says anything I AM A LESBIAN. i understand why people are upset and want this lesbian representation but like. guys.#it was ONE episode.#with a very very VERY important main character getting his backstory#like iām sorry itās not what you want but holy shit omfg#anyways !!#agatha all along#agatha all along spoilers#rant post#agatha harkness#agathario#billy kaplan#billy maximoff

everyone needs to stop framing bill cipher as this flat static character that has no significant backstory because itās pissing me off
due to the release of the book of bill AND the website unlocking new lore, we know that bill literally massacred his whole race/world in an attempt to liberate them through chaos as they denied his ability to see the third dimension
he spent his whole life up until that point being the only one to see the stars (thatās kind of fascinating if you ask me)
ALSO donāt forget that bill is a liar! so many people are jumping to conclusions and deciding that because bill said that he doesnāt care about what happened to euclydia, then he doesnāt care. donāt take his statements at face value because heās fooling you too!
you have to look at the context and his actions. not only is bill lying to you (the reader) he is lying to himself! the example Iām thinking off is in the book of bill he talks about his childhood and describes how everyone loved him when we know thatās not true (because what he could see was illegal and taboo) after that, when he talks about the massacre everything gets blurry and he canāt fully describe it.
bill is lying to himself to soften the blows of reality. when people like time baby or his therapist try to ask him anything related to his past he clams up and wonāt say a word.
he is lying to himself just like he lied to ford, just like he lied to dipper, just like he lied to mabel, and just like heās lying to the reader.
he is constantly putting himself on a pedestal and convincing people that heās the greatest! when he knows thereās something wrong and canāt even remember through all the lies heās created!!!
this is not me saying that heās an excusable villain (because heās absolutely not) but me saying that heās an multi-faceted character that people keep writing off as simple.
#anyways sorry for the rant but i needed to say this#the book of bill#gravity falls#book of bill#bill cipher#long post#shame.txt

random thing i noticed while going through the character bios again: wally's bio now gives information about how his puppet was handled
there isn't any kind of sneaky wording here that would imply he was operated different from the others either, as frank is described the exact same way in his bio.
if it's true that wally WAS in fact puppeteered by someone and wasn't running around the studio by himself like some horrible gay homunculus, he was most likely puppeteered by ronald dorlaine, the creator of welcome home. wally is kind of the "kermit" of welcome home, and kermit was puppeteered by jim henson until his death in 1990. kermit was also referred to as henson's "alter ego" at times, his co-stars saying that it became hard to tell where kermit ended and henson started at times.
i think clown's mentioned the relationship between a puppet and their puppeteers being a topic explored in welcome home at some point (one of these mentions was pre-overhaul, so i'm not sure if it's still true), and has stated that there are going to be more human characters introduced. and since welcome home takes a lot of inspiration from the history of the muppets (and is why we need more horror media written by people really autistic about the topic covered), and "dorlaine" sounds so similar to "darling", it's possible wally may have been ronald dorlaine's "alter ego" in the same way that kermit was for jim henson.
i don't what what any of this implies or if any of this makes sense. i went on this whole rant because of one line of text. is anyone reading this. did anyone see that gnome run by. its so dark in here
#wh#welcome home#wally darling#di's (theneighborhoodwatch) already talked about this before im not bringing anything new to this conversation lmao#anyways wally is ronald dorlaines oc whos eyes glow red and cries blood when he feels strong emotion and is half demon. love that for him#i should make a tag for my theoryposting but i dont want it to be easy to find my Cringe Rants all in one place. SORRY!! !!

I love you bad art, I love you amateur art, I love you self learning, I love you cheap art supplies, I love you journals, I love you crafts, I love you art available for everyone, I love you second hand art and objects, I love you free museums, I love you handmade gifts, I love you childish drawings, I love you art that nobody ever saw except for the artist, I love you taking time to learn a skill, I love you art history, I love you free tutorials, I love you art as a school subject, I love you things that took a long time to make, I love you art studies that are considered useless, I love you the human need to create and change the world around you to be more beautiful and more meaningful.
I hate you AI art, I hate you generated content, I hate you singe-use images, I hate you mindless consumption, I hate you stealing from artists, I hate you reposting without sources, I hate you lying about using AI, I hate you pretending like art is something unachievable and reserved only for the chosen ones.
Make art!! Make "bad" art that is actually special because you took the time to make it. Make art for yourself that you show no one. Make art for others that they'll cherish forever. See how your whole world changes, see how you start noticing beautiful and inspiring things all around you. Make things with love and devotion. Fuck AI.
#I had to get this off my chest seeing more and more blogs posting untagged AI on purpose and people falling for it#why would you care about āartā that nobody cared enough to make?#I'm seeing the world going more and more towards the mindless consumption of images instead of art and I'm... scared#I'm scared for the future of artists and art history#anyway#sorry for the rant but this is something I feel deeply about#And if you're posting AI images that aren't tagged or captioned because you know you'll get more views by tricking people.... fuck you#and I hope you'll get banned from the internet forever
