idk why, but your art is the image my browser uses for tumblr, which means I get to look at it all the time~
Tumblr said “you need a silly little guy to wave at you” and boy howdy is that silly guy waving.
#ask#Preview image selection is a mysterious force I do not understand - but I am honoured to have my silly doodle showcased#i am also so deeply flattered - even if its random chance I am still going AAAA#still not over the fact that people not only percieve my art but enjoy it!!#I hope he is bringing you as much warmth and joy as you need (plus some!!)#its a cold and cruel world out there. we all need a silly guy to get by#I have a hunch puffy sleeve wwx is losing terribly so I hope we can still remember him fondly from this#he’s telling you how to be a good bird: 1) get puffy and 2) beep a lot#3) eat seeds 4) avoid taxes#this is also the advice the other wwx offer you. Who said what is another mystery!

i mean it when i say we've gotta bring back askblogs. bring back making character chat posts with poor choice text colors over random backgrounds. bring back blogs dedicated to what outfits you think characters would wear.
fandom is an ecosystem, not a numbers game. these types of blogs/posts/etc still exist in concept, because people still want to make them and they're a great way to get your thoughts of an idea out in a simple format, but most people make them on like tiktok or instagram reels and that's where the problem lies. Those videos don't go anywhere. The format doesn't allow for the discussion to spread through the community and they're less likely to be engaged with in general. And to make them most people have to either show their face or figure out editing software, so the barrier to entry is higher (editing) and/or they have to forfeit an amount of privacy.
those types of posts/blogs are the first rung of the ecosystem. they're the perfect environment for younger members of the fandom to begin safely interacting with the larger community and putting their own thoughts and ideas out there. roleplay is the other major spot for that and those communities are diminishing as well, honestly (if you know of an rp forum board site, cherish it. and if you can make one, make one). they allow younger fans to begin engaging with the source material on a different/deeper level, but still at a very low barrier to entry, and begin conversations with other fans, which also helps them build skills which in turn may encourage them to pursue other avenues within the fandom (fic writing, other formats of askblog - which itself usually leads to art, cosplay, also fic writing, etc). Without those places to build those skills, they might feel discouraged from trying to begin when surrounded by curated people who have built their skills up for years.
And those conversations they foster also in turn help the community, by offering ideas to artists or fic writers to extrapolate on or building community jokes. And that text/blog format specifically is extremely beneficial, because it allows younger members of the fandom to remain anonymous and keep their privacy without concerning themselves with having any platform or having anything attached to them (very important for young fans figuring themselves out and navigating online community spaces for the first time, since they can remove themselves from spaces easily if they decide they don't like it and they're protected, rather than PUTTING THEIR FACE ON THE INTERNET). And those posts they make will spread a lot more into the community since they're in a significantly easier format to be reposted (few people are gonna be reposting tons of random short-form videos versus spamming their instagrams with reposts of 10 random fandom images yoinked from tumblr, or reposting to pinterest or something). Like, don't repost art, at the VERY least don't repost without credit, but also I am not ignorant to the fact that my art is not just the first google image result for "pjo pride" and related searches, but also the 4th, the 6th, the 9th, the 10th, the 11th, etc etc., and pops up in the search results before the official ReadRiordan does simply because people reposted my work more (most with credit, thankfully).
For fandom to be a community, it needs to perpetuate itself. There needs to be engagement with one another and conversation. If that bottom rung is cut off, then new fans won't be able to grow into the other niches of the fandom, and the fandom will be solely reliant on the source material and die out extremely quickly, and there won't be a community. There's no conversation! There's no reason to stay beyond the original material! But if you don't have points of entry for new fans, they won't have any way to build the skills needed to move into those niches, or engage with the community in a healthy way.
tl;dr: Bring back askblogs and character-based text post blogs. They are vital to fandom ecosystem.
#fandom#long post //#i know many people jest about tumblr posts being reposted often to other social media#but there's a reason for that! because few other social media these days are primarily text-based! and tumblr is a BLOGGING website!#we're built for sharing random essays! which means we have a LOT of word-heavy stuff#that other platforms can really only have in a different format - usually either image or video - due to character limits#and videos - even short form video - is far less engaged with because it takes more time to interact with#and short form videos of this nature ^ are usually only reposted in like. long-form video format compilations#which are pretty equally if not even less frequently interacted with#because most of those other social media platforms dont have good ways to easily share posts en mass like tumblr's reblog function#so even if those posts do get shared they rarely go far and even if they do they dont stick around#i also personally dont think it's coincidental that general fandom attitude shifts occurred circa 2016-2018#around the same time as the major shift away from tumblr due to the bans#anyways if you run one of those types of blogs i respect you immensely#you are underappreciated but you fulfill an important ecological niche#also i know rp blogs are still a thing but theyre much more scarce and rp communities in general are drying up

[The ouroboros] represents the notion that life and energy never completely die, but are constantly transformed and renewed in an infinite cycle.
Couldn't decide between Enot and Nightcat as the ninth scug, so here's a version with Nightcat! Enot version got the main image spot tho cause I love my design for them :)
Some alts without the glow, just for fun idk. I think the glow makes it look more finished but ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
And transparents, since I'm not too sold on the background I whipped up for this lol. Well besides the rain the rain looks good
#(guy who loves ouroboros voice) getting a lot of ouroboros vibes from this game#link is to some random website i got that specific ouroboros definition quote from#spears is just holding on like that cause they have no mouth. rip#considered having them spear the scug in front of them but ultimately liked this vibe better#also i know they arent all evenly spaced but spacing out 9 scugs in a circle is HARD. i had to bring in a protractor image for the karma#symbols too for the angled lines lmao it was a time#zoracontent#zora arts#rain world#rainworld#hoo boy tagging time#rw monk#the monk#rw survivor#the survivor#rw hunter#the hunter#rw gourmand#the gourmand#rw artificer#the artificer#rw rivulet#the rivulet#rw spearmaster#the spearmaster#rw nightcat#rw enot#rw inv#rw sofanthiel#rw ???

comic practices
#pokemon#pokemon mystery dungeon#nuzleaf#breloom#cacturne#my art#luwel#mike#keith#i didnt really want to post these but ive been thinking about it#ill post these ones before all else bc theyre like. timeline scrambled so theyre more of just random things#(VV is random things anyways but the 1st implies other stuff has happned#and id rather do things in order...)#i need to change the font too and remake my handwriting font#also just make the images bigger. so by the time either of these would have been used#they'd already be out of place by being too small#the size issue mostly comes from text placement idk#i care a lot about this kind of stuff lol#but yeah i dont rly do comics a lot anymore so its nice to do them again AND actually try to commit to something#(ive been animating properly again for the first time too since like. being 11 years old#so thats also exciting i guess)

okay ive been thinking about this for a little bit but what sort of dress would thunder wear.
i was thinking perhaps something fancy? like a sleeveless dress or something with some sort of armor? perhaps not something that drags on the floor though
or maybe something a bit more practical? something that isn’t really a dress but you can move more freely/have more protection in (or just generally looks more square/sharp)
#thunder in the show clearly cares a lot more about his image than shiny which means dress would probably be a bit more restrictive for him#and tbh it isnt really that i feel like he would entirely hate wearing something feminine in general? i think hes more worried about people#‘s perception of him wearing a dress. if yknow what i mean#i could also say fuck what i think he thinks and put him in a random ass dress but man. MAN i just care a lot#and i mean i have thought/discussed putting him in a big stupid dress so maybe im just overthinking it LMAO#anyways feel free to give feedback#images of dresses are GREATLY appreciated 🙏🙏#worf opens their big mouth#super giant robot brothers#sgrb#also the main reason i chose a sleeveless dress was mainly so i didnt have to deal with his wide ass shoulders LMAL#BTW HI DISCORD PPL I KNOW WE DISCUSSED IT A BIT THERE BUT I WANNA EXPAND THAT IDEA HERE

One of the biggest charms in early Yugioh is just how ugly it is.
#this is said with upmost affections#go on google dot com and look up bruno yugioh 5ds theres not a single good image#a lot of gx duels had funny windows movie maker effects which i dearly appreciate#but also showing people who never watched yugioh it is a little embarrassing#having two people stand wide apart on the field yelling at each other while their cool looking monsters float stationary#and then go 'OMF THIS SCDNE JS SO GOOD :weary:'#i feel so . normal#random ramble

i think chilchuck and laios don't start becoming involved until after the events of dungeon meshi. this is partially because i think chilchuck should at least somewhat try to mend things with his wife (or at least officially end things) but also because i think laios becoming king WOULD make chilchuck go "okay i need to kill any feelings i have for this man"
#random thoughts#dungeon meshi#chilchuck is very conscious of power dynamics in relation to him#and he strives for laios and him to be equals#and for laios to have so much more power than him all of a sudden?#like. chilchuck is used to feeling powerless. a lot of what he does is to use what he can to his advantage to keep himself from being hurt#and laios being king? ohhhh god. that's a huge power imbalance and he does NOT like it#there's also that fear that laios's newfound power will cause him to start treating those around him (read: chilchuck) worse#like unconsciously#there's ALSO that fear that people will accuse him of marrying up#which is bull but i think chilchuck holds a lot of pride in working for what he has#and he doesn't want to make people think he's seducing the king into changing laws or whatever#imagine evil seductress chilchuck. have that image in your brains

jesus christttt im not surprised at all to hear that the knuckles series focuses on wade and other human characters a lot i saw this coming a mile away with how almost all the news we were getting before the trailer came out was about the human characters/actors and not about knuckles (or sonic or tails or any other animated characters) but the fact that somebody calculated how many minutes of screentime knuckles has and it came out as LESS THAN HALF OF THE ENTIRE SERIES' RUNTIME when the series is NAMED after him is ridiculous. after this show comes out wade will likely have more screentime and overall plot relevance in the entire scu than tails does. did they actually think wade is a popular enough character for people to be down with this. what the fuck
#was gonna pirate the series but at this rate i might not watch it at all LMAO or at the very least only watch the parts with team sonic#because my interest in this series is dropping every second and i already wasnt very interested in it.#and i love knuckles so you know theyre doing something wrong if knuckles getting his own series isnt interesting me#the thing about wade is i dont even hate the idea of human characters. i dont think its bad for human characters to be present#and i dont think its bad for them to be involved in the plot and have relationships with the existing sonic characters#i personally didnt mind the wedding subplot in the second movie and i know a lot of people hated it#but. it becomes a problem when the random humans are overshadowing the characters people are actually here to see#like the show is literally called knuckles and all the marketing focuses on knuckles but its mostly about wade. allegedly.#and . i wouldnt have minded knuckles having a human costar. but again. they should be getting equal or less focus not more.#and also. its fucking wade who cares about wade enough to want this. would have been more forgiving if it was maddie or jojo or something#because i actually care about those characters. and also theyre not cops#for a moment i was willing to believe that the complaints about wade having way more screentime than knuckles#were a little exaggerated since a lot of people just get mad when the human characters have any screentime at all#but then i saw the article showing that knuckles really did show up for less than half the show and i was like Ummm. What#sorry for being so negative lately#its just that every new piece of info we get about upcoming scu projects has me like that reaction image of the guy holding a cigarette#like WHAT ARE THEY DOINGGGGGGG

Something seriously lacking in my art is the ability to tell a story in a single illustration.
I've gotten so used to drawing my characters standing around doing random things that I've never practiced telling a full tale/putting implications into my pieces that require more thinking/looking.
It also comes from a lower amount of details in my works by default [since I like to get pieces done fast], but I'm tired of using that as an excuse.
#vent#kinda#sorry I'm just having a rough one tonight but I'll recover lmao#I think the AI art thing is really getting to me cuz like.#Anyone can make pretty images if they study and practice hard enough#[not to detract from people who don't tell stories with their images!]#but something in my brain wants to fight back because AI will never be able to Tell a Story through its images.#It can't make narrative choices through its regurgitation of random elements. It will never tell a cohesive and interesting tale through#detail choice#the worst it can do is create surface-level 'pretty' images by smashing together a bunch of mushed up information#but storytelling? that's human touch#that's intention. Thought. Choices.#and idk it's really bothering me lately that my images almost never... 'say' anything about a character.#this does not apply to anyone else's art I look at#it's just a standard I'm starting to feel my head apply to my own work and nobody else's.#which I'm taking as a sign that this is something I'm unsatisfied with#but the thought of starting to develop a completely new skill like that? terrifyingly daunting.#Sorry for the wall of tags I'm havin' some hella moodswings tonight#happens a lot when I get inspired by art I see#which I'm trying to work on but yaknow#it's a long process#anyways how's your night goin#I'm gonna cheer myself up by eating some amazing asparagus casserole

#random rambles#Technically I'm done with this month's header since yesterday.#Practically I've been feeling so insecure about it I've been procrastinating looking for an icon or uploading it at all#Like it *was* natural to have a downgrade in themes I've said it myself a lot of times. After 24+ themes it's understandable I'd run out–#of inspiration (or even simply material) for the very cool stuff#That said. I did very much spend the whole entire day from when I woke up to when I (started studying at past 2am) went to sleep on it#That's what I get for working with the anime tbh. Bones artstyle is ugly there's little to be done about it#While making it I also came up with other two themes concepts.#One is probably going to replace September's plan and the other idk will probably slid to the next year#Idk looking at this year's planned themes lineup it all feels full of things I'm not skilled enough to make...#On top of everything this February's theme wasn't even what I had initially planned!! The one I had initially planned was a chapter 33 pane#Idk why I didn't follow up with it. Maybe I've just grown to think manga panels are too simple (terrible choice) (rip)#I think the thing that bugs me with both the initially picked image and the anime header I made yesterday–#is that there's no smooth transition with the blog. And I know it's not a big deal but pretty much all my themes do and it's bothering me..#And it shouldn't. Like nearly everyone uses an header that is sharply separate from the blog and they make it work#Uhm..............#Idk I should be studying besides.#I think I'll either go looking for an icon and see how the overall theme looks on the blog. Maybe I'll like it better then.#Or I'll just start over and see if I can use the ch 33 panel I had in mind and see if I'll like THAT better#It'd just be a shame if after all the time I've spent on it yesterday I'd just let it lie unused on my computer#There's also the fact that black and white of the manga doesn't feel very February-esque... (Don't ask)#Ugh. I hate looking for icons it's always the worst part 😭😭😭#I was considering the last Beast Atsushi illustration (because ofc I was) but idk. Idk if I can make it work.#And part of me is also like “don't use beautiful Hoshikawa Beast Atsushi on an ugly theme” LOL#But I also suffer heavily from the lack of Beast in this year's lineup.#Okay rant over. Shutting up now#Edit: If this month's theme is ugly please be kind#Edit 2: Jk I've found like four icons. Maybe I'm just very dramatic

Random, but unusually for searches like this, all the Jeremy Northam results I got were for what was unquestionably the one I was looking for. Except this one, from 1849 from The Exeter & Plymouth Gazette of 22 December, which was so wonderfully random I had to share it too.
I have no explanation for this, but it's from Kingsbridge in Devon, and as someone with Devonshire ancestors, I can only nod and say: 19th C Devon be like that.
#NOT in fact jeremy northam#maybe an ancestor#because northam seems to be a more unusual locative surname than i would have expected#so who knows?#anyone who knows what the hell kingsbridge shrimp jeremy was up to please do explain#history#newpsapers#kingsbridge#devon#[transcript in image description]#i do a lot of family history#which is what my sub to this archive was for#but even so every time i switch to my devon ancestors#i'm left pretty much as baffled as this. i am not convinced devon was real until the late 20th C#and. i'm from somerset. i'm a wurzel. i'm still going WTH 19th C devon???#so. devon be like that. srsly#random
