[video description / transcript:

Desmond Sycamore, frustrated, writing a letter: "Do you even want to hang out?"

Professor Layton, reading the letter with a smile: "Do you even want to hang out? Oh, that's considerate." Layton, writing back: "Like I said, whatever."

Sycamore, standing, reading the reply: "Like I said, whatever!? F*** this guy! Jesus, you--"

Layton: "are f***ing priceless. (smiles fondly) Aww... You're the"

Sycamore: "one who's f***ing priceless?!?! You want to go"

Layton: "Right now? (checks his watch) Hmm. Guess I could do that. (writes) Okay..."

About-to-explode Sycamore: "OKAY LET'S GO!!!??? He said oka-- 'OKAY LET'S GO'??? (sits down and writes like he's gonna murder the letter) All right you know what? YOU KNOW WHAT? You want to really"

Layton: "Do this now? Keegan, you nut. You're not putting me out."

Sycamore: "F*** YEAH LET'S DO IT??? (rolls up his sleeves) OH YOU F***ING ASSHOLE!!!"

Descole, in his costume and ready for violence: "(points at Layton) YOU!"

Happy Layton: "Buddy! Like I said, first round's mine! A beer and a gimlet for my partner right--"

(Descole is looking very confused and worried. Also he's holding his sword as if he's ready to strike.)

Layton, puzzled: "What's that?" /end video]

sometimes i scroll thru my tumblr dash & think to myself with a bit of awe how lucky i am to be surrounded by a world full of beautiful ppl doing beautiful things. & yeah no there's no punchline to this one actually. i just love u

I have seen a few DCxMarvel dimension travel fics, and quite a few of them are of them are Peter Parker post-blip. Which gives me a crack fic idea: everyone who got snapped ended up in the DC universe. Yes, all of them.

The current world population is around eight billion, so half of that would be 4 billion... Yeah that would cause so so so many problems. But the DC universe is used to crazy shit.

Obviously there would be a sudden influx of "new" heroes and villains but with absolutely no context it is hard to figure out who is who.

Batman immediately trying to make contingency plans for all these new heroes and villains as well as figure out their civilian identities but this is very difficult because literally no records exist yet.

Magic users from both worlds team up, but I think they were still unable to fix it, the infinity stones were just too powerful. Also I think Dr. Strange and Constantine can't stand each other.

While I am at it, Wonder Woman and Loki would probably hate each other too. DC is more Greek but it has had their own version of Norse mythology, so maybe they are the same and have beef?

They would struggle to feed and house that many new people, but getting them jobs and integrating them into society would be hard too. And good luck proving anything anyone says. "You swear you have a law degree from Harvard? Okay I guess."

Do doubles exist? Yeah a lot of people probably don't have an alternate universe double, but it stands to reason some do. How do you deal with having a new kind-of twin? Or a dead friend or relative coming back, but different? Or even someone you never knew/doesn't exist in this world insisting they are family.

Some au double ideas I have seen people toss around are: Dick Grayson as Richard Parker, Kara Danvers as Carol Danvers, Steve Trevor as Steve Rogers, and Slade Wilson as/being somehow related to Wade Wilson, but I am sure there are other fun ideas out there too.

The snap didn't just affect humans/earth! So other planets are having the same problems.

Then randomly, five years later, just when people were getting used to the change, they all disappear again without warning. This causes as many problems as the original appearance did.

The thing that gets me about history and humanity is that you never know what is immortalized, and the things that will be immortalized are things you would never think.

I saw a person sharing a new tattoo, and it was one of Onfim's drawings. A boy who lived so long ago he is barely a blip now, but his drawings meant so much to people that somebody is now permanently marked in their skin with one of those drawings. Do you ever look at the things you make and just sit there and wonder if this is the thing that future people look at? Do you ever look at your art, your writing, your schoolwork, or anything that is yours and just wonder who will find it, who will fall in love with a piece of your humanity and become overwhelmed with emotion over? It's not unlikely. It's not totally unlikely that somebody will find a piece of you in the distant future and devoid of any other context of who you were will still love you because you were here. You were here, and you are still here, even hundreds or thousands of years later. Treat yourself with the same love that so many have for dear Onfim.

Viva Piñata art dump

Viva Piñata was my favorite game when I was younger and it influenced my style heavily throughout the years but I've noticed it's like really niche? I haven't seen a lot of people talking about it which is a shame since the whole series is absolutely adorable. So I'm spreading the word myself with some funky doodles

Someone killed my boss last night and he sent me this I'm so fired

god I can't wait to make this comic.

[lightbulb-warning]

so has anyone figured out WHY there is the Need To Share our Artworks™ or is it just the vibes and our Soul apparently

[lannisterdaddyissues]

the internet used to be fun :(

If only the original Saint Seiya anime was a 2014-2018 anime series instead of being aired in the 80s-90s, I can only imagine the sheer amount of animation memes that could have been done. Some of the characters are just so perfect for those, like, if this was a more animation-oriented fandom this would totally be a thing.

people : its important to be inclusive, yes even of identities you don't understand ! support he/him lesbians !

these same people when its about using multiples contradictory labels because identity is complicated and fluid : if you support this you're actually evil

[musical-chick-13]

Regarding the whole "Fandom Is An Escape, so why should I have to care this much about misogyny/racism/ableism/transphobia/etc." thing. Idk about the rest of you, but it gets kind of hard for me to "escape" when I keep seeing people say the same vile things about characters who share aspects of my identity that I hear all the time in real life.

this looks like a long time but initially it said 1 MONTH 15 days

Sometimes I think "perhaps I am engaging in some needless paranoia by compulsively downloading all of my favorite things and making a personal archive of them all" then something I like stops being available online and I go "oh, no I am extremely reasonable about doing this"

happy 1 year anniversary to the election results that were so fucked they had me trying to take my mind off of things by watching what seemed like a toxic chinese queerbait show only to find something far more thoughtful and genuinely queer and interesting than expected and end up watching a bunch more unrelated things that are talked about in vaguely the same realms of the internet and then watch bad buddy twice in a row and fall into an endless bingewatch of thai media (some of which is mediocre, some of which is bad, much of which is simply pretty good, and some of which is genuinely incredible) and go, well, it would be a waste of all this language input i'm accidentally giving myself right now if i didn't at least learn a few words. thus accidentally locking myself into watching even more thai media because now i gain serotonin from hearing a sentence i know i could write

the windows destruction streams are the warm comfy blanket of livestreams. like every year or so i get an urge to rewatch them all. and then i see the artifacts of the early-mid 2010s internet with flash player and other old malware oddities that hadn't been killed off yet at the time. and it's strangely comforting. i hear the goofy swedish man dicking around on a virtual machine and i get the feeling that everything is going to be okay
