Floyd's emo ass and a techno troll could make scene kids...! Do you see my vision??? . . . Ravin is Happy Hardcore and Eddy M is Synth-Pop, that's how troll genetics work, right?

anyway...

i don't think floyd leads a proud life

Just finished reading the ENTIRETY of the asks listed in the pinned post; very informative!

They have, however, sprouted(tee hee mushroom pun) many a questions of my own, which I delicately tried to make sure for the criteria for asks to the best of my ability.

So, first of all, Im genuinely suprised to learn that he has a phobia of storms and yet isn’t scared and ENJOYS fireworks. How does that work?

I'm glad you enjoyed!! <3 It's rare to see someone actually going through the whole thing so I appreciate it, hahaha! As for the question, it's kinda simple if you think about it!

Fireworks are set off in controlled settings; meant to be a pretty light show in the sky, a symbol of celebration and joyous times. Storms, especially lightning, are a dangerous weather hazard and if you're not careful, can be fatal. It's not about the sounds or the spectacle of either, it's whether or not getting caught in one can mean your life ending on the spot.

hello fellow gweoff enjoyers

[alluraaaa]

keith regularly accompanies allura on her shopping trips because he folds for anyone with big brown eyes. and she likes to make him hold her bags despite her being ten times stronger than him. so he sits on the boyfriend couches looking so so so grumpy. but he’s not her grumpy boyfriend they’re both gay and keith just looks like that. he has no fashion sense and says “you look great” no matter what allura comes out wearing, but allura likes his company so she buys him a shiny new knife <3

"For both bonobos and chimpanzees, the bodies of the dead evoke many emotions. Even if the process often begins with trauma and confusion, typically corpses shift to a liminal status; not alive, but equally not a lump of meat. They're more intensively manipulated than hunted animals, and carried for longer. In some – if not all – cases, the eaters must know what and who they're consuming. Cannibalism is very probably a powerful means by which individuals and groups process the impact not only of killings carried out on emotional impulses, but other deaths too. In other words, it's about grieving. [...] "Shift these scenarios to Neanderthals, and add into the mix their far greater cognitive sophistication, and lives that revolved around using lithics. Suddenly it's not difficult to envision how skills in carefully taking apart hunted carcasses might be transposed into a grieving process that involved butchery and cannibalism as acts of intimacy, not violation."

hello! saw that you add image descriptions and I was wondering if you think the alt text feature tumblr has is good for image descriptions or if it’s better to just write it out in the post? I’m not the most knowledgeable on how to do good image descriptions but I wanna start making the habit of putting them on things

Hello!!! This is a great question, thank you for reaching out!!! The alt feature is great for descriptions, but the most recent consensus I've seen is that doing both alt text and plain text (body text) IDs in the post is actually the most broadly accessible way to describe a post!! Here's an example of what I mean (you'll notice there's some more detail in the plain text, and that the alt isn't appended by brackets or extra ID formatting):

[ID: My icon, an emoji fish carrying an emoji love letter in its mouth surrounded by hearts and set against a pink gradient. End ID]

The blind community has competing access needs, which means there isn't a one-size-fits-all format, and your final choice comes down to what you prefer on your blog, as long as your IDs are useful and clear :)

Some bullet points to help you get your bearings:

Alt text is occasionally plagued by glitches and is sometimes considered less accessible to people who may not use a screenreader. It's still the most useful form of ID for screenreader users, from what I've gathered!

Plain text IDs should be written in fully plain text-- no small text or excessive italics/caps lock! However, I've seen that bold is generally more acceptable as special formatting. Utilize line breaks if necessary, but try to emphasize clarity and conciseness rather than exhaustive detail. Also, IDs go directly below (or above) the image, not at the end of a post!

People who do use both forms of description will frequently, as I did above, write a relatively bare-bones alt and a more in-depth ID so screenreader users can choose whether they want to sit through repeated information or not!

And last: Thank you again for reaching out!!!! Every person who chooses to make their spaces accessible makes the world a better place :))))
