#babbling on Tumblr

[astracora]

someone's probably pointed this out cause i'm not browsing tags but

Caleb's flower is hydrangea.

Not only a flower that changes colour in differing soil (Caleb is a chameleon or changes who is is depending on the person he's talking to or where he is?)

But the meanings are;

One sided/obsessive love, heartlessness, frigidity/coldness, apology, family and gratitude.

If you want to write stories and you feel like you're not managing to write the way you want to, maybe you haven’t found your medium yet.

I’m not talking about making money, I’m not talking about getting some agent or publisher to see money in your work. I’m talking about you, writing what you want to write.

I love writing. I do not love writing novels. They hurt me, physically. I have been so much happier since I stopped trying to force myself to write novels and disappeared into my flash fiction and short stories.

Maybe novels aren’t your thing either. And maybe short stories aren’t! Maybe your words want to be poured into poems, or songs, or TTRPG campaings, or drabbles, or podcasts, or anecdotes, or (screen)plays, or something else entirely!

There are so many ways to be a writer, and even more to be a storyteller. You don’t have to let yourself be bullied by a medium that does not suit your creativity.

AI and Tumblr

In the event of any kind of AI Art API is to be trained on this platform I do not give permission for my art to be sampled or used to train AI without financial compensation, artists hold the copyright to our art and any intentional mimicry or sampling of my art by an artificial intelligence is infringing on an artist's rights to their creations.

We as artists will not take this grim proposal between Tumblr and Midjourney laying down, this was the last safe heaven for a lot of us and you are now holding knives to us entirely to solve your financial woes instead of offering meaningful solutions. You are going to bleed your community of all trust and all revenue you still eek out of us. Your ways have changed from one of a community built around passion for fandom and the creative mind to one of greed and exclusion. You have been showing true colors and they are ugly, they are sickening, and they will kill your platform. If this deal goes through, may your platform die slow and painfully, may you watch your most loyal of whales walk away and leave you drying out in the hot pavement that is bankruptcy.

i have been thinking and now i have to take it to the tumblr: how often do you wash your hair?

if it varies due to things like whether your hair is in a protective style or not or what your disability will permit day to day, you can pick whatever feels most like your normal. or you can pick other!

please reblog and elaborate on tags and whatnot. i am a curious little guy.

For your Trolls art inspo, have you heard the song Angel Baby? It's by Troye Sivan, the same person who voices Floyd. It's amazing and I think you might find some inspiration from it.

I HAD NOT UNTIL I READ THIS and u were correct i immediately had to draw some relevant lines. this was supposed to be a doodle, but u know what, i feel like a proper out-n-out trolls serenade is due!!!

and of course the rest of the lyrics were kind of ironic in full context ahaha.

Anti-shoutout to the hecklers at the Anaheim show

Several hecklers decided to keep yelling during the first part of the show and at some point, kept yelling so loud, Will stopped talking and they KEPT GOING! He then decided that since the hecklers had so many ideas for jokes, that they didn't need to hear his then.

We got our punchline privileges taken away because some people thought to ruin everyone else's show for what???

Thank goodness this got them to stop for the rest of the time but looking through other concert posts, there seems to have been a pretty big problem with heckling at other shows too?? Like. Everyone paid at least 50 dollars to see Will Wood, not you. Sing along, dance along, cheer, whoop, all fantastic! Don't shout things at him as he's talking.

At some point someone made a "YIPPEE" sound really loudly while he was talking and he stopped and said "I love paying 50 dollars to into a public place and quote memes" and honestly yeah.

If you're going to a future show of his, PLEASE don't heckle or shout anything but lyrics During the songs. Really tanked an AWESOME show for me.

Screaming into the void with this post because nobody who needs to hear this has an account on Tumblr.com but:

knowing about the Odyssey isn't fucking classist. Fucking Obviously????????

I am so tired of seeing people online pretending it's some dense, impenetrable text when the entire reason it's been so popular for thousands of years was because it was the OPPOSITE OF DENSE. Anybody could read it!! Storytelling and myths and legends and folktales are for EVERYBODY!!!!

Stop projecting your own fear of reading onto your massively skewed perception of poor people. Most of the people calling it classist aren't even poor!!!! Stop that!! Pick up a book! Watch the Spongbebob Movie! Listen to EPIC: the Musical! Watch the George Clooney movie "O Brother, Where Art Thou"!Read the Mary Pope Osborne translation or a graphic novel or Percy Jackson or something good lord.

[noisyasalways]

i paid for tumblr premium primarily because i just couldnt stand being taunted by the beef tallow ad anymore

i swear they do it on purpose now

[bandtrees]

side note i love those pretentious ass posts that are like "autistic people name one special interest of yours that's not 🙅‍♂️🙅‍♂️MEDIA🙅‍♂️🙅‍♂️" because they have complexes about being on the fandom website. because how do you define media. am i still a cringe fandom blogger for being autistic about commercials. those are media. am i an uncool brainrotted autistic who needs to stop watching steven universe and watch real grownup shows like house md because mark gill is my wholesome 100 blorbo babygirl

The horrors persist, but so do I.

Or, the story of how I've moved out, had my soul sucked out by a bad friendship, had the rest of my mental sanity sucked out by a bad work environment (the job itself is cool, at least)...

...and barely managed to pick up the pencil twice in two years.

So, yeah. I persist!!!!!

But my creativity and my hobbies don't, apparently. I hate it here.

thank you dayseek on tt for this scp holy shit.

Hey y'all. I really didn't want to make this, but the reason I've been trying so hard to advertise my shop is because I feel for a commission scam on Facebook and lost my last Centrelink payment to it ($800) I'm feeling incredibly stupid and sad right now because of it. I live with housemates and not being able to contribute to household expenses is making me feel sick. I've already contacted my bank about the charges but I don't know how effective they're going to be.

I don't want to beg, but please buy something from my shop. I worked really hard on designing these and would love some support. The more traffic I get to the site and the more sales I get, the more likely my designs are to reach the Threadless marketplace, which will mean I get to make some proper money off of my hard work. Plus you get cool stuff out of it like these bags.

I think I'm especially fond of the line of backpacks I made.

Please boost this and help me out.
