Happy Birthday to Ferdinand von Aegir!

I actually made 33 emotes, affectionately known as Aegirglyphics to some, for my own personal use on discord. However, I figure why not share some of them! They're free to use for discord servers/icons/pfps or whatever. However, my only request is Do NOT use them as subscriber emotes on Twitch. You can make them free follower emotes but you are not to make them locked behind a paywall.

[happi-dreams]

me and my sister was thinking of little master builders world building before tlm and we had the silly idea of — hey maybe they did lil fun games as moral when things looked dire ?

therefore, ✨ Brick-lympics ✨

i think they’d have little categories they’d all play in like ‘who can build the fastest?’ <- (consistently benny) or ‘who can build the most creative design?’ ‘who has the strongest build?’

n maybe in tlm2 or tlm if they weren’t invaded literally seconds after, Emmet joins in and probably switches between judging and building every now and again

I need to be weirder about the scavengers and cannibalism...

thoughts & feelings! ————

everyone writes at their own pace, in their own time, with the best resources they have, according to whatever life stage(s) they are at 💕

~most readers generally express gratitude and understanding and patience! fandom culture (across fandoms) shifts and changes all the time, so while there are times in fandom (generally) in which the ✨entitled expectation✨ is for fic authors to "WRITE FAST, PUBLISH OFTEN," there are also times in which readers go out of their way to share beautifully encouraging messages like "even if you never update again, i am so grateful for what you have given us (so far)!" and "i will wait for this story to update for the rest of my life, and i will be happy with an update no matter how long it takes" and, often—both messages at the same time. 💖

a good skill to develop is the mental strength to withstand the not-so-nice messages while absorbing the positivity of the lovely ones! i don't post or respond to the really nasty anons i sometimes receive 👀 like the ones that accuse me of having "abandoned nearly all [my] fics"—i personally delete them immediately! anons like that do not deserve someone else's ✨energy✨. (for the first time—i think, ever?—i did post someone's confusing? rude? anon the other day [i.e., i am a hoarder who creates suffering by withholding fic updates?? i think??], but i attribute that choice to publicly post [my reaction gif to that anon] to my current Life Stage™ and my hard-earned self-confidence in the knowledge that I Can Do Hard Things. ✨ my development of that muscle has come from finishing other long-progress fanfics, and, to be honest, Real Life Milestones like going to grad school [twice] and Doing a Dissertation ✨). all in all, the motivation to keep updating is really, at its core, about having the will and the time and the mental energy and the passion to dedicate time to something that you really want to do, even through all the obstacles and nonsense, which takes mental (and emotional) strength! 💖 develop and fortify your mental fortitude! 💖💖💖💖 it's a lifelong process! ✨

and lastly, and most importantly, in my opinion... regardless of whether or not you think any potential readers might be out there (chances are there WILL BE, but that's not the point!!!), just keep writing... and write what you want, and write for yourself! whether you update in two days, or ten years, or twenty-two—do it, anyway!! 💖💖💖💖💖

LOVE YOU, THANK YOU, GOOD LUCK 💖✨ (and keep me posted lol)

[arttsuka]

Ok bear with me here because I can't explain it well.

I really don't like when (in movies or books or whatever) they make them specifically about a topic but instead of having it imply the message it is the message.

Like how elemental (2023, disney) was supposed to have the theme of racism and migration by having the fire people be outsiders. I specifically remember a part of the film where they didn't let the protagonist and her father go in a botany garden(?) because they were afraid it might cause a fire. And it was this big part of the movie etc but like, wasn't it a valid concern? Not that they'd do it on purpose but accidents happen? The same way it would be a valid reason to not let either fire or water people in a library for example. I get where the movie was coming from but by embracing this message as a core plot line of the film is really weird? I don't know, probably only me.

What I'm trying to say is, when they try to pass a message by making it an actual plot instead of an allegory, they usually fail (at least in a world with fantasy elements)

[medicinemane]

It's amazing how quickly you can make someone turn on your company by making a stupid and insulting move

Force me to go through the front door and scan my card when I have backdoor business that never needed a card before (what? ...I was going to somehow... sneak in and... purchase things with a borrowed card? ...which I totally can't do from the front door after scanning it?)

Or like... twitterify your layout right after your users give you a bunch of money just cause they like you, and then refuse to walk it back

...or all the other things companies do that just kinda piss people off and then they refuse to acknowledge maybe it sucks and is stupid cause "hey, the customers didn't leave"... yeah... yet

[235uranium]

god I love third sem so much. it's insane how well done it is like I think it's some of the best writing in p5 and it's a fucking addition

[aceofintuition]

Hi hello❕Just wanna say that I'm STILL listening to the playlists you shared (I don't have spotify so I made it on youtube) and I really like it ouhh thank you for sharing.

My favorite songs rn are probably Nobody til somebody wants you dead, Lent, and Take tonight : )

Here's one of my all time Archie and Maxie songs: https://youtube.com/watch?v=i8TKoBPkZQo

HELL YEAH look at that Lil Archie!! He is so cute! I'm also so glad you're enjoying the Playlist, giving music recs is such a dopamine boost for me lmfao. :') Also fun fact abt Take Tonight--I put it on there originally bc the opening with the rising and falling melody reminded me of the diving music for Hoenn and then later I decided the lyrics were good too.

And hey that's a good song for them!! I've not heard it before but it's very quintessential 80s. I'm now doing a dive to try and figure out the exact song I'm having flashbacks to when I listen to this.

[ashiyn]

my favorite quote from tangos latest episode has to be "please hold while i kill myself". im gonna be repeating this during any obstacle i run into from now on.

assignment deadline for tomorrow that i haven't started on? please hold while i kill myself.

empires s2 is ending this month and im not ready? please hold while i kill myself.

bdubs releases merch and i spend money i shouldn't use on it? please hold while i kill myself.

[sentientstump]

yall really want me to spill the beans about the song, eh? 😭🙈

[orchid ⇢ what’s a song you consider to be perfect? ] x5

So many asked, so I'm going to go full details here:

I haven't listened to that many songs in life, mind you, so my answer would be Playing By The Rules by Red Vox (quinn you already listened to it on loop, sorry, no new info for you) I find it very great to my ears on all sound levels, every time I listen to it I try to focus on different instruments because i don't want to get bored of it xD I really enjoy the MV for it too! The theme, the style fits so nicely that sometimes it's difficult to separate it from the song itself (also, i saw that Mason Lindroth inspiration from miles away, so +quadspillion points to this MV!) The ONLY downside (upside in disguise) is that its so short... but! I have this feeling of silent appreciation when it comes up on shuffle play, yknow. Gotta enjoy things while they last! And I guess this song is a good exercise for me. Also if you asked me this question like 8 months ago I would've answered with Reno by Red Vox too .... I think I have a thing for gambling themes in songs- xD oh well

[sage ⇢ what ‘medium’ of art (poetry, music, fiction, paintings, statues etc.) is the most touching to you? why do you think that is? ]

Oooh man, I haven't thought about this before! I don't think I have strong preference towards one 'medium' of art? I just really enjoy when someone uses the medium in a very 'their' way, because what is more touching than their love to the craft? I mean, of course there's people who hate their craft but good at it, and maybe that's a little touching to me too in a more.... tiny humans on a pale blue dot in a vast space of cosmos sorta way? If you catch my drift

[edelweiss ⇢ how’d you think of your url/username? what’s it associated with to you? ]

ahaha, I keep wondering why people don't ask me about it more frequently "xD (one person got me though) It's from PesterChum's rules of creating nicknames (Homestuck's chat app). I had to come up with a name based on my attributes at the time, so I wrote something like "artisticArtist" but then in one chat group I somehow got the lore that I am a stump??? So that one originated from there. And then I tried to follow the rules of nicknames by writing "cleverStump" instead, because it's CS which is 1/2 closer to the GCAT rule. But then I said "screw it" and thought that sentientStump is more accurate to ✨the lore✨ , because I am sentient, but not smart (I also have a screenshot of it (thank you 13 y.o. me) but I cannot find it currently, maybe someday)

[chamomile ⇢ what kind of things do you like receiving as gifts? ]

I really like to receive trinkets of any kind! They're usually small, usually cheap (I mean if they are expensive then im double happy and double sad of your wallet :c ), usually infinite happy chemicals in my brain! Magnets, pins, keychains, art supplies, gift paper bags, boxes, crafting materials and so on! I really enjoy things that are small (no joke here lol xD)

[aloe vera ⇢ what’s something (mundane) you really want to experience in life? ]

Everything mundane. like legit, whatever there is in life I want to experience it. Well, there is some no-no's such as physical pain? xD i don't want to experience a broken bone but i like the thought of experiencing wearing a cast. Or something...? 😅 I gotta experience all of the world has to offer but i do understand that i never will. Y'know, small things like walking at 16:45 on a ground road to the place where people apparently are fishing! (before walking there i didnt know!) Or eating a melted popsicle in a plastic wrap on a balcony watching a thunderstorm dissipate, or standing on a bus stop at 20:05 for one hour to understand that the buses on the bus app lied to you and no one will appear and you run to the 24hr store to buy yourself instant noodles for your dinner because you won't be able to join your family and their dinner in the countryside? Stuff like this y'know! Makes me enjoy life fr👍🏼 genuinely

[cactus ⇢ something you’re currently learning (about)? ]

Driving! But only theory rn "xD

[bamboo ⇢ do you change into a different outfit when you get home? ]

Of course! Who doesn't? o_o jk jk, it's totally cool! I tried it once because why not (look at [aloe vera] above) and tbh... not my thing! Especially when the outfit has 400 layers because of the 9 month winter, brrr. The apartment gets a lot of heating, so gotta unpeal the layers! At summer it's reverse i guess? I'm usually hanging out at my countryside house (technically two houses but same plot) and i change to the most "outside work" outfit possible after taking a short trip to the grocery store with my "i am from the city, downtown" outfit XD So basically i change into a more comfortable outfit and more worn down👍🏼✨

[chia ⇢ what’s an inside joke you have with someone else? ]

i have this very specific inside joke with my longest irl I've ever had (since 3y.o. 💪🏼💪🏼) We keep asking each other and their doggy Deya questions like: "[you're] Sitting?", "Sleeping?", "Eating?", "Walking?", "Staring?", "Barking?", "Taking a toilet?" etc. in a "what are you doing currently?" tone. It's so dumb!!!! I love it! xD

[jefferythejelly]

wtf is going on between dream and quackity??? I looked it up but I'm seeing so many different opinions from people 😓 what's going on and will I have to pick sides? I'm just so confused by this whole thing 😭

oh anon what rock have you been living under (and can you take me there)

this got kind of long bc a lot has happened and it's been kind of slowly building up over a month, and i kind of used this as an excuse to do something i've been wanting to do and make a rough timeline of events, so hope you don't mind the incredibly long post. it has certainly been An April (/neg) around here.

march 10th- quackity announces the big project he’s been teasing, the qsmp, a minecraft server with both spanish and english creators. dream puts out a priv tweet the same day saying he’s been working on something similar to collaborate with worldwide creators and he’s mentioning it bc he doesn’t want people to be worried about copying once it’s announced (this is foreshadowing)

april 2nd- dream announces the united smp and its accompanying live translation mod with a video and a tweet. small note here that the video was originally supposed to be an april fools video at first, which is why the international creators are skinned as the different manhunt members, but was delayed by a day bc editing took longer than expected. discourse starts near immediately as drantis are quick to accuse dream of copying q's idea of a multi language server

april 3rd- quackity announces that a new live translation mod is being implemented in the qsmp. copying accusations are now coming from both sides. note that it has been 1 day since the usmp announcement, so the chance that q actually developed a mod in that time is basically zero. also note that dream said he’d been working on the usmp prior to knowledge of qsmp’s mod being public. this is confirmed by snapchats dream posted later this month of camera roll screenshots of photos of a whiteboard with brainstorming for the usmp with the date march 8th visible, which is prior to the qsmp announcement. the point i’m trying to make here is that the most likely explanation is that it's a big damn coincidence

on this day there was also a brief copypasta started by george and sapnap joking about the similarities between the two servers (the first multilingual smp with live translation). george goes live with the smp from his copypasta tweet (slutsmp) and several ccs join throughout (during the stream its implied he basically @/everyone-ed the entire dsmp discord). he makes several shady comments but at this point its unclear if hes memeing quackity, the fans making drama out of the situation, or both

kind of skipping over a few weeks here bc its a lot of the same Nothingness but basically: discourse continues to spiral, egged on by the fact that dream has continued interacting with/mentioning quackity but is met with radio silence from the other side. there are a few clarifications from dream on twitter during this period that the qsmp and usmp are separate concepts and that he does not hold any ill will towards q

april 24th- while already somewhat assumed after quackity announced the qsmp's translation mod, quackity officially announces that the qsmp will be adding worldwide creators

april 27th- dream drops this thread which i highly recommend reading for yourself bc it gives a lot of context. tldr: quackity hasn't responded to dream despite multiple attempts to reach out, from both dream and other mutual friends. dream doesn't know what's going on with him but doesn't want any more hate to build between their two fanbases. he is explaining this because he feels he should explain his motives/give context as hate has built up to the point of irl threats to himself and his family's safety. he says that he is changing the concept of usmp slightly so there is less competition between the 2 servers and reiterates that he doesn't want any hate sent to quackity and that he's proud of all he's done

radio silence from quackity for this whole day, and then:

april 28th- quackity goes live on twitch. he says nothing about it and announces the new brazilian creators for the qsmp

and that's... kind of where we're at? q has continued being active on qsmp and social media and has said nothing, mutual friends are continuing to interact with quackity, and we've kind of reached a weird stalemate.

there's also some small bits of context that are more on the fandom side of things as to why a lot of ppl aren't supporting quackity anymore, so i'll (semi-briefly) try to explain those here:

during all this a mod on the qsmp was (rightfully) called out for including a mob that portrayed incredibly racist stereotypes of indigenous people. q did eventually remove the mod after public pressure but his apology/explanation of the situation was incredibly lackluster, and he didn't address any of the server members who made racist comments about the mob or after the mod's removal. this soured a lot of people's opinion of quackity/the qsmp in general.

second thing is just general vitriol between the two fandoms. qsmp fans/quackity solos were already being nasty at the start of the month, and that only built as the month continued. i saw at least one instance of a fan supposedly being doxxed and having someone show up to their house over the drama, and heard of ppl having gore/photos of self harm sent to their dms (so y'know. classic toxic twitter fandom bullshit). i will say that the toxicity has recently somewhat risen on the dteam side of things as well, with people being a lot quicker to hate on ccs still interacting with quackity and generally being super neg abt q (tho i can't act like some of that anger isn't slightly warranted. hell, i've been super angry over this and i used to be a super big fan of quackity). a lot of people are disappointed in q's silence over this whole issue and believe that it is quackity's responsibility to at least publicly denounce the doxxing/threats being made by fans in defense of him, especially as it's something that dream has already done, both prior to this situation and during.

as far as "picking sides" goes... a lot of ppl here on dtblr have been doomposting for a while, and at this point quackity is basically in no one's good books. at the same time, most of the rational people i follow have been acknowledging the nuance of the situation, and that a lot of mutual friends may be caught in the middle right now (shit dude, you're talking to a foolish main and that dude's still on quackity's damn server). there's also the matter of dream basically asking people to stop fighting, which at this point i am very inclined to agree with due to the levels of discourse and toxicity that we've already gone through, plus i think it's a better alternative than the community self-cannibalizing any time someone mentions quackity

ultimately it's up to you to decide what you want to do with this info and how much you want to remove yourself/unstan ccs, but know you aren't alone if you're sad/disappointed about how this whole thing has panned out 🫂 it has certainly been quite the Month around here

[ii-zi]

Even when they ask, venting to people makes me feel like a tar pit lol

[rjalker]

[ID: A three-panel, black and white, digital comic. The first panel shows a person with short dark hair looking to the side, shown from the shoulders up in a long-sleved shirt with text above and below that reads, "Ia am not a man, or a woman, or trans, or agender, or anything at all."

The second panel shows a box filled with black lines crossing out the inside, with the text reading, "This ugly ill-fit sohe of a language, by choice and by design I'll never be found within it."

The last panel has the text above cascading down, reading, "The colonizer took everything from me, so I will take their satisfaction and peace."

followed by an image of a person being spoken to from offscreen:

Offscreen: "You are a girl."

Person: "No."

Offscreen: "You are a boy."

Person: "No."

Offscreen: You are nonbinary."

Person: "No."

End ID.]

not sure if this reads too bitter or at all but the older I get the harder it is to define myself in a language/culture that had (and have) a big role in destroying the ones I come from

[bluebunnysart]

About this blog (rules/guidelines)

Hi! This is a safe space where I (Bunny) put my art and talk about fandom stuff sometimes if I feel like it. Here are some rules (of thumb) so I don't have to repeat or explain myself too much. ^^ (Five)

FUB free (follow, unfollow, block free). I don't care about notes or number of followers, and I draw/post what I like, so if you ever stop vibing with anything I do, you're totally welcome to jump ship and I won't hunt you down/remember your face and be mad/sad about it. In this place you're stuck with me, not the other way around, and obviously you can leave if you want to. xD It's my blog.

Do not be mean or rude to anyone, including me. This includes attacking/interrogating my or other people's headcanons, or insulting others, including other ships. If you hate a ship, I encourage you to censor the name before you trash it, but I don't really want to see that myself. Also, if I see you participating in harassment campaigns or dogpiling someone, I'm blocking you. Yes some people have terrible takes, but unless they're threatening/loudly inciting harm against others, there's no need to put someone (usually a minor/kid) on blast and essentially bully them. Let people be wrong sometimes without doing the internet equivalent of mauling them to death like a dog. That disgusts me even more than the original opinion most of the time, so cut that shit out right tf now. Dogpilers really tick me off unless the person has a nuclear level bad take (like promoting rape, which most people AREN'T doing), so please talk to people like an adult or scroll past if it's just a harmless difference in opinion.

No NSFW, no proship, no hate/weird stuff. I won't be posting any of this stuff and I don't want to see it. If you're into incest, grooming (immoral age gap relationships), rape/noncon, abuse/domestic violence, misogyny, racism, homophobia, Zionism, etc. etc., then please don't interact with me. I don't really care if you like NSFW but don't be weird about it to me-- I'll probably block you. I can't even enter any space without seeing an (unfunny) NSFW joke like once a day, so I specifically don't want that here. (Give me a break lol.) I'll just ban it all completely-- if you want it, you won't find it here. 😂 (I might make a mildly suggestive joke like once a blue moon, but only 'cuz I think it's funny enough to make and go through with. I'll tag that if asked but I'm not planning to go overboard at all, dw.)

You may use my art as long as it's not for hate/AI training/reposting on tumblr and pretending it's yours/negative things. Credit is appreciated but not required. You can crop it for roleplay reasons (I've done that before) and I guess you can edit it, but please don't do anything weird with it like changing it for an agenda or being mean to people with it. I don't assume people will use my art or anything, but I'm just putting that out there 'cuz I'm personally fine with it. Icons and the like, idk. You don't have to ask for my permission-- my art will be free for non-commercial use like Miku. 😇 If you do something super elaborate with it though, I'm kind of curious and would probably like to know. xD (Not forcing you though as long as you don't claim my art is yours/belongs to you/was made by you.) I'm sharing my art with you out of kindness, so please don't do anything weird with it or trash my stuff. 🥰

This is lowkey an echo chamber/fandom archive where I yap to my heart's content, but interacting with me is fine as long as you're not weird/entitled about it! ^^ I love reading nice tags! Nobody's perfect, so if I ever do anything wrong, I would greatly appreciate that being pointed out to me privately and I'll amend my ways. I genuinely do not want to be a hypocrite or hurt anyone, so I appreciate people NOT coming at me combatively/assuming the worst of me and making my own space unpleasant for me. Rude messages will be deleted and I don't block easily, but if you tick me off enough, I will genuinely block you. I may take a while to reply but that's because I'm busy. However, this is not an invitation to invalidate what I like/claim it's problematic or immoral when it literally isn't (I'm open to discussions about it as long as it's in good faith/isn't forcing me to explain myself for existing or liking things). You can just dislike certain things without moralizing everything; it's okay to dislike things, but not everyone (especially the ones who like it) wants to hear about it. You can dislike something for literally any reason and it's your right-- what's wrong is imposing your dislike on other people when other people aren't doing anything wrong, so please don't do that or you will get blocked. It's fine to call certain things out but many people need to be reminded that they're talking to another human, and not everyone has the same upbringing or understanding of the world. Don't bully/harass each other.

I may add more if I need to, but I think I don't.

Please respect my boundaries/be kind or at least civil to me and I will do the same to you. Thanks!（＾∀＾●）ﾉｼ

[salemthepuppylover]

I have said it SO MANY TIMES and I will SAY IT AGAIN.

AS A DOM. YOU DESERVE CARE TOO.

aftercare is often times sub-focused, and while that’s always great, it’s often seen as “only subs need aftercare because they’re the ones that took the brunt of the acts.” and as a disabled dom, that’s absolutely not true.

dom drop is very real. I often experience it as guilt for hurting someone, or being “too aggressive,” as trans women are often seen. especially for doms that take care of subs, pretty please take the time to take care of yourself too!!

and for all the subs out there, if you’re able, please please please go get your dom some water or a snack. even if neither of you can walk, it’s imperative that you *talk to each other.* in my past, even the smallest things made me feel so much better. I’m going to list off some great things to say to your dropped dom here (feel free to add in reblogs!!)

“I’m okay. You didn’t hurt me too much.”

“Thank you for doing (self care act) for me, do you need anything?”

“I liked everything you did.”

“everything was within my boundaries.”

“you did great, (name/nickname).”

“do you need anything?”

“would you like (self care act)?”

“can I help (task: clean up, get water, etc.)”

just doing something like talking, showing physical affection, kisses, comfort, etc, is so so so important, and everyone deserves it!

and to all my fellow doms out there, don’t feel guilty for asking for help! if you need it, ask for it! your partner is there to show you love and care too!
