WARNING: GIMMICK BLOG REVIEW AHEAD

Gimmick Blog: @hazard-symbols-that-fuck-hard

Gimmick: Posting pictures of hazard symbols, accepts submissions.

Gimmick Rating: 9/10, while it does definitely appeal to myself and many tumblr users, I'm sure there are many who would be largely unimpressed. However, within its niche I think this gimmick is excellent. With how fragile our lives are, I imagine there's no end to the hazard symbols one could find. Many of them, in an attempt to shock meaning into the viewer, come across as "hard as fuck" or "fucking hard". A gimmick to capture these symbols is a unique and interesting idea. As of time of writing, it is tied for the highest rating given to a gimmick.

Blog Rating: 8/10, largely dedicated to the gimmick but occasionally features non gimmick posts. Even among the non gimmick posts, many are related to the gimmick, though there's enough that aren't for me to care. For instance, HSTFH's tarot and poker decks. If someone were posting about their tarot and poker decks on a gimmick blog you might assume they're just shilling a personal project but HSTFH is much more reputable than that. Hazard Tarot and Hazard Poker are not only impressive art, but also topical to the blog. Even the... porn (which I will not link directly to for obvious reasons), featured on the blog is tangentially related to hazard symbols. However, HSTFH posted some stuff about the election and telling people to vote. While I imagine we have similar politics, and I would normally support such things, I don't believe politics should feature on gimmick blogs.

Overall Rating: 8.5/10, the highest score ever awarded as of time of writing. Hazard Symbols That Fuck Hard is in my opinion an account someone could only run on tumblr. It's unique, it's cool, I've been a fan for a while and I have been considering buying its hazard tarot and poker deck designs as those are things that fascinate me. I always keep an eye out for interesting hazard symbols so I have something to submit someday. Until then, I will wait with anticipation for the account's next post.

girlcoded sam readings are like. his arcs are so tied up with control and bodily autonomy and sexual assault and otherness and cleanness and a desire for freedom and rebellion against oppressive masculine forces to the point where an examination of his show-long arcs looks like a thesis on The Female Gothic. he’s never afforded the respect or the power of characters like john and dean and is in fact narratively punished whenever he isn’t subservient to them. both the show itself and the fandom surrounding it treat him like dean’s bitch wife. he is textually compared to female characters multiple times, by the narrative and by dean.

and then meanwhile girlcoded dean readings are like. Eldest daughter core! (his father handed down ultimate control over every aspect of sam’s life once he died like a family heirloom)(he is THE patriarch). Yes he does the cooking yes he does the cleaning (which he doesn’t even…. and even if he solely did all the housework how does that make him Girl Coded unless it’s being delegated exclusively to him like its his role and he’s punished for not conforming to it… which is not happening…).

like girlcoded dean readings rely on stereotypes about women in real life. girlcoded sam readings rely on noticing how much the narrative constructed around sam falls into tropes used in fiction almost always about women. even things like his psychic powers! the way people are always swarming around trying to ‘corrupt’ him! the fixation on his purity and innocence! the two readings are very different things

intro

my name is Lola, im 18, im a cis girl and my pronouns are she/her, but honestly gender eludes me so yk, they/them pronouns arent off the table. Im autistic and queer. Ive been on tumblr for around 5years, but now that im legal i decided to make a more "fun" blog if u catch my meaning :P

this blog is probably gonna be more than stricly nsfw stuff but if you follow me you should expect graphic text and naughty pics

so btw minors not allowed!! minors dni.

other dni: racists and raceplay ppl, ana coach blogs, edblr, terfs and other queerphobes, nazis and pro-para/map, guro/gore and Ai deep fake accounts

This is just a basic dni that i might modify over time but for now, this is it.

On this blog im gonna be posting about kinks and fetishes like pregnancy, piss, fauxcest, age gaps, cuckholding, feminization, corruption, orientation play, lactation, breeding, non con, intox, scent and smell, body worship and lots more.

If any of those topics bother you, just block me, im not here to discuss ethics, save yourself some time

hard nos : zoophilia and necrophilia, raceplay, scat, puke, farts, feederism, diapers, gore stuff, vore, birth giving

this list may also evolve over time

i dont like labels over all, id say im pretty fluid so my preferences and dislike will probably evolve. id call myself a switch.

If you dont have anything interesting to say to me just dont dm me

if u want to pay me in exchange for goods and service, my attention, or just bc im awesome, also dm me. ;p

my biggest turn offs are constant spelling errors (i know its hard to type with one hand but cmon,, put at least a little effort in) and poorly shot nudes. (i do not want to see ur toes in the pic.,,) but if you want to see mine, we can make that happen :3

anyways this seems like a pretty complete intro ! I think im pretty cool so you'll probably miss out if you dont follow! And pls do send asks, i wont bite ;·3

Today’s bear meme is!! This is a bear

An oldie, but a goodie! Very few bear memes are as iconic and timeless as this is a bear! It’s also VERY factually correct!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/5!!! My only note is that the bear ears are not denoted as being where the love is stored, even though they are and that is where the love is stored

Gimmick blog: @onenicebugperday

Gimmick: Posting a nice bug every day, takes submissions, sometimes identifying the bugs if need be.

Gimmick rating: 8/10, really interesting and great but it's not for everyone and identifying bugs is not unique. That said, a wonderful addition to Tumblr, and deserves a high rating.

Blog rating: 8/10, focused mainly around bugs, but posts much more than once per day as far as I can tell and posts about bug stuff outside of "one bug per day" posts.

Overall rating: 8/10, as of time of writing in a three way tie for highest rated gimmick blog. A beautiful example of what a gimmick blog can be. I aspire to be similar, I might even start taking submissions/suggestions to get more gimmick blogs to look at.

Sidenote: I find it interesting ONBPD includes spiders in "bugs" as they're not insects and by definition, bugs are small insects. No judgement or opinion on spiders, just an observation.

Finally, One Nice Bug Per Day, can you ID this bug? I assume it’s some type of bee give that it was chilling on these flowers. I’m in the Puget Sound region of Washington State and this picture was taken a few minutes ago. (I took a pic of a bug specifically for you to ID.

forever mad that HoO introduced Diocletian's scepter as an object but. gave it to Nico and had Jason promote Frank about it.

Like. Okay here is an object that can summon the dead. It can only be used by a child of Hades/Pluto and a Roman officer in unison. HAZEL IS RIGHT THERE!!!!!

Nico can already summon the dead! He doesn't need a special object for it! Literally IN THE SCENE WHERE THEY GET THE SCEPTER, NICO RAISES THE DEAD. HE'S NOT WEAK ENOUGH THAT HE CAN'T! Hazel meanwhile has never raised the dead before (kind of - she did a little bit like once)! Theoretically she's fully capable of it but she's never properly tried it before! Giving her an object to help facilitate practicing with that would be perfect, especially given the scepter expires after a certain number of uses! Also, since Hazel ends up a praetor in TOA anyways, there's no reason why she shouldn't get promoted to be able to use the scepter all on her own! In fact her getting promoted in the House of Hades would be the perfect place to do so because it's a scene where she's taking the lead and saving everyone else! In fact it's a significantly better place to promote her to praetor over the scene where she ACTUALLY gets promoted! And even if you don't have Hazel promoted instead, then you'd still have it be Hazel and Frank working together to command the armies of the undead, which is perfect because they're a couple and it'd be a great way to show how well they work together!!!!!

LITERALLY THERE IS NO REASON TO NOT GIVE IT TO HAZEL. WHAT'S THE DEAL.

Some basics about alterhumans, otherkin, and therianthropes

Alterhuman is not another word for nonhuman. It’s not another word for otherkin, either. Alterhuman is an umbrella term for therianthropes, otherkin, nonhumans, and more. It can also be for some who do identify as human, just in some unusual ways. The word alterhuman is short for alternatively human. It was coined by Lio of the Crossroads System in 2014. Its purpose was so all of these kinds could unite under a word, without erasing what makes each one distinct.

The otherkin and therianthrope communities started without any relation to each other. The word otherkin was coined in the year 1990 in the Elfkind Digest mailing list. Its participants were elves, dragons, dwarves, wolves, and more. That’s where the otherkin community started.

Elsewhere, the therianthrope community started in 1993, in an internet group for fans of werewolf stories, alt.horror.werewolves. The participants started talking about how they related to those stories. Therianthropes are often kinds of animals that live on Earth, but not all of them are.

Later, in the late 1990s and 2000s, the communities of otherkin and therianthropes started to mingle because of what they have in common with each other. The two still exist side by side, with their own distinct qualities, and so do many other sorts of alterhumans.

Good morning 🙏🏼

I want to thank everyone their support with reblogging my stuff over the years and reblogging some of the context of the situation.

Tumblr and Instagram is filled with the most supportive people I’ve ever had the chance of meeting. The last time something like this happened, I didn’t have much support, not even from people I thought were close to me. It took me a year or two to be okay with being perceived again in fandoms. So I’m very grateful for everything.

I just wanted to post that I appreciate all of the asks and I’ve been reading all of them. I actually get anxious I’m spamming everyone too much so I probably won’t reply to everything. Please don’t feel pressured to support me financially, there’s is a free option on patreon to follow. I’ll post future project plans and occasional updates because I still love comics and I still love DC/Marvel. I do enjoy having people following along for my art/reading journey so I would always be okay with people just following for free. My brain is telling me this post is too long now so I will go 🙏🏼😭

[reading-comp-posting]

You have inspired me to start making reading comprehension questions for a server’s political memes channel. Do you have any tips to make good questions, or pitfalls to avoid?

I did want to answer this ask but I waited a bit until I had more actual posts queued before doing so

When I'm doing my gimmick, the first question I ask myself is, "taken completely literally at face value, what is this post saying?" Then, I ask, "what does this post actually mean?" or, alternatively, "what was the reason that this post was made?"

Of course that is not necessarily the best way to do it or the only valid way, it's just the easiest way for me to start breaking a post apart.

I also try to lead a hypothetical person who is reading my questions to try and think about things in a way that would help them understand the post. For instance, on the nsfw snow post I tried to direct my hypothetical answerer into understanding that the one image that was removed was probably due to copyright issues with the photographer as opposed to some algorithm gone awry that thought the snow was porn, which can be verified by checking the notes of the post.

Have you reviewed @creatures-in-posts yet

Review requested by Anon.

Gimmick blog: @creatures-in-posts

Gimmick: Finding, and often drawing, creatures in posts. ie. finding animals and things that resemble the "TBH Creature" and redrawing them in the style of it.

Gimmick rating: 10/10, the occasional creature drawing is what really brings it up to a 10 in my eyes. Without it I think the gimmick would lack effort, but with it it's perfect. The gimmick is simple, is funny/cute, and has mass appeal. Off of tumblr it might not, but I feel like the "tbh creature" and its associated memes are fairly well known here. If I could change anything, I'd like more creature images. They're very cute and I appreciate them. However, it would be rude to rate down for that, and it would also be very clearly biased.

Blog rating: 8/10, very good but does occasionally post things other than the gimmick. Posts such as this one bother me because there's no real creature to be identified or seen and thus fall outside of the blog's gimmick. But they undeniable add something to the blog. Were this not a requested review I might let it slide, but as a rule I go a little tougher when it's requested. Additionally, instead of identifying a creature and/or drawing it, the blog will run a poll to determine the creature status of the animal. This also seperates from the theme similarly, and I have similar feelings about it.

Overall rating: 9/10, a very high score, congradulations. I think this blog is fantastic and does what it does well. Creatures in Posts is near perfect, and should be proud. My only wish is that the gimmick is clearer, or more focused. Specifying in the bio that the blog runs polls, or not running polls anymore. However, I recognize that I am being very nitpicky. Please accept this picture of my icon as a creature as an apology.
