#feel free to unfollow and all that

I tried a new brush and let the voices win (drawing moomin again)

to my fellow creatives: never stop making art. art is an act of protest.

[miguel-owhora]

I think online mutual culture is killing some of you

[iinryer]

oh yeah actually good idea before the new season airs: i don’t liveblog here, but i also don’t tag recent spoilers once ive seen the episode. 911 is literally the only thing i post here so fjdkdhfh please feel free to unfollow/refollow at your leisure and curate your own online space 🫶

hi, just letting you know that ahmed 90s-ghost doesn't verify fundraisers anymore! he quit after it got too overwhelming, so you shouldn't @ him asking him to. you can probably find the post about it by searching his blog.

Thanks for letting me know, Anon...

I get it... I REALLY do.

I understand. Y'know I used to be so excited to get Asks. It means someone wants to talk about art and silly cartoon characters with me. But now all I feel is dread. Not because I don't want to help, but because the help I give is never enough. I used to privately mesage back to those Asks, but one became 6 became 10 to... Well. I can't donate. Euros and dollars are valued a lot higher here, thus the opposite is also true. The value of our money is but a paltry bread's worth and even if I split it in crumbs, with the amount of people who approach me for help, it'll soon run dry, but I'm just a student who still rely on my parents financially. So I thought I'd share instead, but that quickly got out of hand. I post one thing and get multiple asks by the HOUR. I already had to apologize for struggling to meet demands before and I only had 3 or 6 rare to come-by short Asks about art. Now I have a hundred and counting I have to check personally. I didn't want to admit it, but I've also long been overwhelmed. I just didn't feel like I had the right to say so. I still don't. But the truth is, anyone can say they're verified too, which is terrible because not only will I be partially responsible for my followers who got scammed by bots or scumbags who take advantage of those at war with fake fundraisers, but even worse is that the help and money may not even reach those who actually need it. I thought I would be fine the first time. I don't really like posting too much about our depressing reality or watching news in general because my account was supposed to be a "safe SPACE" and a "nice little BUBBLE" for us to be happy and escape for awhile, so I didn'tmthink much about rebloggingit at first. I only wanted to help. But it just kept going and I got swept away. There's so many of them, but there's only one of me and I've been spiraling lately. So for now, I will no longer take any Asks about this subject (which I always avoid mentioning directly because the algorithm has it out for putting you guys down and I wanted you all to make it so I didn't tag those reblogs with such). I'll still take Asks provided they're related to my actual content and of course I'll still support raising awareness for Pal est ine, yet I also get it if this may appear selfish to some of you. I tried. I really did. But if you'd rather ignore, unfollow, or block me for this decision, I understand. I'm just sorry it had to come to this and that I wasn't strong enough to help more. -Bubs.

they made cherri x sir pentious canon and I think it has ruined sir pentious as a character for me, may I please have some wholesome baxtious to cleanse my soul of straight sir pentious?

Ah, yeah I heard about that, I haven't really watched the episodes myself yet but

I guess I should've made posts about this yeah?

Currently I don't know what to do with this account, honestly.

I was just thinking again of Idolish7 and I think that the reason that the theme of legacy and carrying on the baton or becoming something better was done SO well was because it they approached it from that old adage about "paying it forward." It's like....yes, they are rivals and competing and doing this for themselves, but like Otoharu said in one of the story parts, the past isn't worthless because it gives us something to build off of and perhaps surpass (and it's good inspiration, too). And you can see that in addition to just being idols and creating music and making their own kinds of art for themselves, they're also doing this out of love for something from the past. Mitsuki with Zero, Sogo with his uncle, Tamaki for Aya, Iori for his brother, Riku because of his family and Tenn, Tenn for his family/Kujo, Momo and Yuki for the old Re:vale and Banri, Minami and Nagi for Sakura, also even Aya for the families that abandoned her and the new ones that gave her something, etc. Even people like Torao and Yamato, who kind of entered the industry purely out of "selfish" desires have an arc where they received kindness and now just want to pass it on.

To sum it up, by treating the past with respect and real appreciation, they can surpass it without trying to undermine its real impact and beauty.

Still on my dragon bs... Not sure what to do with this still, cause it will likely end up too big for my intended purposes. But I think it can double as a flat wing pattern for the dragon amigurumi I've been brainstorming for the past weeks if this current wip doesn't work out 👀

[nightfayre]

It is so interesting watching 911 with my roommate. She really liked Tommy (she knows Lou from other shows she wayches) and really liked Bucktommy. When we watched this week's episode with the break-up her reaction was: 'oh that sucks I really liked them as a couple.' And that was it. My roommate isn't on 911s social medias or involved in the Fandom, she is the general audience and probably similar to the average viewer: straight white woman in her 30s (i know there isna very large queer demo who watches Im part of it). I dont think the general audience is going to be that upset about the break up, because honestly Tommy wasn't in the show that much (he is super important in Bucks journey though). I thought his character was fine and if he would've been end game I would've been disappointed about Buddie but I would've been happy with bi buck. But it's like buck said - it was a transformative relationship just like his one with Abby. Which was a catalyst for so much growth and development. It is not a bad thing that it ended, sometimes relationships do that and it is no one's fault (I do think the break up was rushed and written not super well). I just really hope that this means we are actually getting Buddie. I think we should wait for the rest of the season, or at least this half to see where the storyline is actually going before casting too harsh a judgement. Maybe Tommy will be back maybe he won't. Maybe buddie will never happen but we will have to wait and see. Stories need time to develop!

good morning everyone friendly reminder that taking inspiration from other artists (allowed, fun, fresh, helps you grow as an artist) is not the same as a/i taking someone's art without their consent to let people copy that art style and people are allowed to be rightfully angry and upset about the second one happening
