This started out as cat mirroring and fluff but unfortunately for Eclipse a lot of my trapcards have their origin in the first half of the 20th century and I'd like words.
@naffeclipse someone save him
*self insert Aster is not a girl (he/ she)
og detective au by sunnys-aesthetic!
#post let luce#dcamv#bloodstain fool#naffeclipse#my art#menace4menace#Freud is the easiest of those trapcards#anyone who knows a bit about Freud hates Freud#so that's what made it into the joke#also shoutout to Plummy for asking if Aster is doing the cat mirroring thing#bc I basically went “... Well he is now!”#or we wouldve had more jokes about 1920s slang#posilutely as yes is honestly harmless to some of the shit people said back then#not that we have any room to talk thats how slang *works*#but also. oh my god#yknow when your parents try to stay hip n talk in slang?#opposite here. “youre from the future dont talk like that it sounds wrong when you say it”#long tag ramble. enjoy <3

I vote for Argenti! I hope you feel better soon!
Thank you ! I do feel much better (though I admit I hurt a little for very much my fault reasons but it's mostly manageable through light pain meds).
Take an Argenti o7 I got lazy and didn't draw the roses I was gonna draw to the left so there is now a wide open blank spot.
#honkai star rail#argenti#i managed one of the things i owe and this isnt it but here take a doodle#im a ding dong who told someone oh no its starting to pour i should draw someone quick#and then proceeded to draw him way past the rain .... so that.... was a thing#i mean luckily we didnt lose power but still#ALSO OMG THE REASONS I AM AT FAULT FOR ISSSSSSSSS#we have obtained as of yesterday a mama cat and a lil baby boy#and so i heard him mewing under the bed and like a FOOL rolled over on my side with the recovering incisions#to check on him and hoo boy that was indeed a mistake#but lil guy was okay just wanted attention#im so pleased to announce he loves me most teehee#my dad has repeatedly told me idk where he is i hope he isnt stuck#and then i simply exist upstairs and then he bounds out from his hiding spot and lets me pet him and pick him up#truly a good lil bean he is so baby i - with v tiny hands - can hold him in one hand without any problems#none of this has to do with the art i apologize#but ty for the request uhhhh over a week ago ! i do still have them in my inbox and when i can manage i try to look over em#and try to consider one but then i sometimes just do not have energy and wanna do something easy and fast

one year ago yesterday i was cussing out a customer for wasting my time at 7 am at self checkout because he decided that was the day he would come into the store follow me around making odd requests while im very actively Doing Stuff and then give the one cashier we had on duty a hard time because he didn't wanna pay for some raspberries. i told him to get out of the store and he was like "what are you the manager?" and i told him to get out before i called someone (never done that in my life) and i took his stuff to the produce room in the back and when i came back he was still selling out and someone managed to sell him some wretched thing
#and this is why i dont work at sprouts no more#easy job made difficult by asshole bosses and even more assholeish customers#granted i didnt like yelling and making a scene because it was kinda quiet and other departments saw that and they never took me#for the yelling type. but sometimes i yell i got a shit temper and a low patience whenever im clocked into any front of the store job#but yall when i tell you the moment i clocked in and had to do my sweeps there was an instacart shopper#trying to get me to find all their items for them. and then This fucking guy interjecting to be like oh you guys dont have this...#youre always out when i come here... and some other fuckoff customer being like wherecan i find the food at and im like.#well we are in a food aisle at a food store. and hes like nooo im talkin like the trashy junk food. and im like well we are in a sprouts#their food isnt automatically healthier btw its just more expensive. motherfucker we Have pizza rolls#first christmas eve off in two years. hashtag unemployment rules#i dont play w customers acting a fool especially if its a coworker who quite literally cannot stick up for themselves#i dont think i Said 'fuck out my store' but it definitely. something similar. to that

alastor would love the idea of eloping and throwing the reception for our 1st year anniversary, just so that he could watch as people try to object only to announce that we've already been married an entire year and there's nothing they can do about it.
#it was my idea and he was like 'by god - it's brilliant; I'll start planning the wedding immediately' asdfghjkl;#we fully anticipate people trying to crash the ceremony and we're over here like. you fools.#radiostar#he'd invite Rosie to stand as his witness and I'd have Stolas stand as mine when we elope#they're the only people who know and Rosie's thrilled she gets to design our wedding attire for both occasions#this was spawned by what I lovingly call babytrap!au where Alastor grapples with the fact that I won't enter a deal with him for his own#good (because I'm afraid something will happen and hate to have him in something he can't get out of) so he goes the old fashion route#and I'm like okay yeah sure good luck bud (conception is very rare in hell between sinners)

a doylist explanation for gnomes having a reputation as aggressively annoying-on-purpose obvious joke characters is that they get built that way by troll players because a lot of people, by and large, don't know how to square the concepts of 'people who proactively value joy and whimsy and having a laugh' and 'people who are capable of being well rounded and serious with actual thoughts and feelings' as things that can coexist
a watsonian explanation is that a lot of gnomes realize other races think they're stupid and ridiculous and are intentionally leaning in as hard as possible because they think it's really funny
#me-- overly sensitive about being flanderized and perceived as stupid: BEING SILLY DOES NOT PRECLUDE YOU FROM BEING A WHOLE PERSON#gnomes who have a better sense of humor than I do: OOHOHOOOO FIDDLE-DEE-DEE WHO WILL TRY MY RRRRIDDLES THREEEE#I'm 100% sure I've talked about this but 'you have to suck all the silliness out of something for it to be worth taking seriously'#is a particular axe of mine to grind#I have REALLY strong feelings about tolkien elves#and how the movies' portrayal of them has spun out into a broad cultural understanding of all elves as Very Stoic And Serious#insane to me. the hobbit specifically says 'lots of people dismiss elves as too silly to take seriously which is a deadly mistake'#AND NOW HERE WE ARE. INCAPABLE OF CONCEIVING OF CHARACTERS WHO ARE SILLY BUT SHOULD ALSO BE TAKEN SERIOUSLY#INCAPABLE OF IMAGINING JOY AND WHIMSY AND A SENSE OF HUMOR AS EQUALLY VITAL FACETS OF A BALANCED LIFE#'elves are too wise to be silly' you fool. you fucking idiot. elves are too wise NOT to be silly.#.... anyway that was a very long tags tangent about elves in my post about gnomes dfkgjhgfdk#THE POINT STANDS. gnomes are like that.#gnome stuff#worldbuilding

#Vanessa Morgan#Reba#Who would have thought there'd be a crossover#And like again I know it's not her obligation to tell#But girl#Who we trying to fool here?

in my ideal ending Mork gives Day a bouquet of sunflowers while they are in the Songhla on the bank they were years ago at Aon's wedding and Day drops to his knees, while holding Mork's hand, takes a ring out of his pocket and proposes to him.
ANON PLEASE DON'T REMIND ME OF WHAT WE COULD HAVE HAD THIS REALLY GOT ME LIKE
im honestly trying so hard to make my peace with the way last twilight ended but every time i think about it for longer than two seconds i just end up having to talk myself off the ledge for the next two hours..... and even leaving aside the forced break up, day getting his sight back, and what they did to mork's character as a whole, im so upset we didn't get THIS EXACT ENDING YOU WROTE WHY COULDN'T WE GET THIS EXACT ENDING YOUR WROTE
LIKE WE SHOULD HAVE GOTTEN MORK FINALLY GIVING THE SUNFLOWER TO DAY!!!!!!!!! WE SHOULD HAVE GOTTEN DAY PROPOSING TO MORK!!!!!!!!! WHY MAKING SUCH A BIG DEAL OF MORK NOT BEING ABLE TO GIVE THE SUNFLOWER TO DAY NOT ONCE BUT TWICE AND HAVING HIM 'FAKE PROPOSING' TO DAY AND IN GENERAL BRINGING UP WEDDINGS SO MANY TIMES THROUGHOUT THE WHOLE SHOW JUST TO THEN DO NOTHING WITH ALL THAT!!!!!!!!!
(actually i know why it's because in the end the narrative didn't make day and mork equals so of course the sunflower can't reach the sun and get caressed by its light but let's just. not go there)
ANYWAY IN MY HEAD THIS IS HOW LAST TWILIGHT ENDED THANK YOU FOR SHARING SUCH AN INSPIRED AND TOP TIER VISION ANON
#NOT TO BE LIKE WE COULD HAVE HAD IT ALL BUT. WE REALLY COULD HAVE HAD IT ALL#im really never getting over what they did to this show who am i trying to fool here#but again thank you for sharing this anon!!!!! im happy to know we're on the same page here!!!!!#hope you're having a wonderful day!!!! 💜#last twilight the series#m: ask

mask without sim, aka what happens when your soul is split and the part of you that has an anxiety disorder is stolen and you no longer have access to the memories and emotions that shaped you into who you were
#my art#oc art#dnd oc art#roommate dnd#im only posting this here bc my roommates dont know my tumblr JDFBDH#just til next week's session when they find out how it affected my character#bc we ended on the dramatic escape and so the characters havent been able to cool down and check on each other yet#anyway. cue me trying to figure out if my dnd character is legally plural now.#like... if you're forcibly split into two consciousnesses#one of you the person who hid by trying to become someone else and the other the persona that you tried to become#and you weren't separate people before but you're definitely separate now because one got stolen#idk man it's pretty complicated skfbdj#anyway. dont be fooled into thinking that mask looks happier than sim.#i mean it thinks it is but shit's close to the difference between repressed trauma and remembered trauma.#mask is still affected by its trauma it just doesn't remember. forgetting isnt healing#sim thimble

i can tell twitter users are slowly going to make this website so, so much worse, and eventually do the impossible and make it go up in flames
#you thought tumblr was bad before... phew#bc the problem is.... more than likely its mostly just twitter leftists who came over here#and twitter leftists... are notorious for not getting along with anyone ever#and only getting along with people who agree w them exactly on everything#and also a lotta them are tankies :/#if you thought leftists were divided on here before its only gonna get worse lmao#twitter leftists are honestly really good at eating their own and they dont care thats what theyre doing. like at all.#literally the definition of doing politics for aesthetics also#like i thought tumblr was the bottom of the barrel but maybe its that way now bc of the twitter refugees#maybe that was the goal of rightwingers- to get all the leftists in one place where the right hardly even is and watch us#tear eachother apart as we try to search for the 'secret right wingers' in eachother#thats why they dont care about making twitter good- they want to destroy it bc it was originally a platform where the rights ideas#were challenged and it was easy to make a fool of them. but the right wants echo chambers for itself and wants ut to tear eachother apart#and what better way to do that ig than to get anyone whos disagrees w rightwingers away from them where they can#plot and come up w more bullshit to make the world worse while we're all infighting#and dont get me wrong there probably are secret rwingers but i dont think its who ppl think it usually is#like its probably not the guy whos outwardly ignorant about a topic- showing hes vulnerable enough about it to be#challenged on it.#no. the secret rwingers are gonna be nolife kiwifarm types. theyre not gonna be out in the open and public about their opinions#to where it can be challenged. theyre gonna hide behind accounts that LOOK like normal tumblr users#and sow division among all of us by talking the way ppl do on here and using the same buzzwords#and coming up with convoluted ways to 'callout' people over the dumbest shit imaginable#people who go around saying 'clearly this person meant this' in regards to a statement someone is making as clear#as they possibly can and the other person misinterpreting it in bad faith on purpose a lot? i dont trust it personally.#you have to ask yourself what ppl have to *gain* by doing that kind of shit a lot.#and if you cant come up with anything that benefits the left in any real capacity... well... i think you might have your answer

u ever think like what if there is someone out there who is exactly like me. or close enough. pornbots please leave me alone.
#least suspicious bot i have seen yet it's really a stretch to call this one a pornbot#no link no posts followers & likes hidden. however. pfp of a real normal looking woman who isn't a celebrity#not exactly a selfie because it's a bot but clearly intended to be perceived as a selfie#<- we don't do that here u can't fool me#although i really do have to wonder what the point of these ones are. are they just trying to lure people into a false sense of security?#also i have some followers with empty blogs which sets off all the bot alarms but they have their likes/following public#and it seems all normal?#like. theyre only following a handful of blogs (bots tend to follow a whole bunch of blogs with no clear link between them#as far as i've noticed)#and their likes are all consistent & seem normal too#i guess it could be just a very elaborate bot scheme but like. i doubt it.#<- guys pls stop having totally empty blogs . ur literally only hindering ur own experience#the artists you're trying to follow think ur a bot and they are going to block you#i mean keep at it if u dont care but personally when i follow an artist it's because i actually want to. yk. see their art ???

nvm the americans in the notes going “i live in america you don’t want privatized healthcare” are normies and fine it’s the fucking americans going LISTEN HERE YOU FUCKS
americans stop pretending you’re the main characters in the story and eat my entire ass
#i want to have empathy for the story they gave but to start off like a total wanker talking down to us like ontarians haven#t been freaking out about this and talking about it over and over for years now is disgusting#we don't need you to increase the fucking font size and yell at us like we're children we fucking know we don't want goddamn privatized#healthcare jesus christ i hate looking at cdnpoli online bc americans never stop making it about them as if they're the only one#who have ever suffered from bad policy or some shit and the rest of us are dumb fools needing to be told by y'all#i Know. we all personally fucking know bc there's plenty of instances like the story in the notes having already happened here#this bill would just be another last push. he's already done so much damage and if you cared you would know exactly what and how#GOD i hate this but it's so frustrating to see americans make it about themselves as if i don't have enough trouble#every single fucking day talking to canadians about this shit. bc so many normie libs are obsessed with looking at america okay just#stop it. if we can shut up and support y'all during your political struggles by god you can try to do it for us#anyways i guess the vote offered doesn't even mean anything but idk why i thought there would be#there's actually no stopping it unless somehow ford got booted in the next day but that's not a thing#it's just capitalism lol. and fascism. bc he's already violated the charter and there's already brutality and capitalism demands more and#more. violating federal law some more to make sure the rich can devour our corpses some more is just inevitable

For anyone who’s first language isn’t English, who’s not familiar with the kind of language used in the Bible translations today, who’s not familiar with the ideom “fool bent on a folly”, or for anyone who for whatever reason had to google it and may it just be that they just woke up and are still half asleep.
[Image ID: The different kind of bible-translations as a small caption in blue and the corresponding translation of the Verse Proverbs 17:12 in average black text underneath:
New International Version
Better to meet a bear robbed of her cubs than a fool bent on folly.
New Living Translation
It is safer to meet a bear robbed of her cubs than to confront a fool caught in foolishness.
English Standard Version
Let a man meet a she-bear robbed of her cubs rather than a fool in his folly.
Berean Standard Bible
It is better to meet a bear robbed of her cubs than a fool in his folly.
King James Bible
Let a bear robbed of her whelps meet a man, rather than a fool in his folly.
New King James Version
Let a man meet a bear robbed of her cubs, Rather than a fool in his folly.
New American Standard Bible
Let a person meet a bear robbed of her cubs, Rather than a fool in his foolishness
End Image-ID]
hey guys big news, the bible has taken a stand on the man vs bear debate. and it said we should choose the bear.
Proverbs 17:12 (NIV): "Better to meet a bear robbed of her cubs than a fool bent on folly."
#Bible translations#Bible says bear#Bible agrees on man VS bear#man VS bear#accessibility#accessibility man VS bear#show sc#addendum by me#addendum for accessibility#addendum for accessibility by me#maybe I am the one who is neither familiar with English Bible-language#nor is English my first language#and also I just rolled out of bed and was still half asleep and this was the first tumblr post I saw#maybe we all do have a problem here#to roll out of bed#see this and then immediately google Bible translations instead of leaving it be#that cannot be healthy#but then also to go and post it for everyone to see and take ages to write and image ID#obly to figure out half way through I could’ve just copied it from the picture and/or website#listen I was truly still asleep#however I would’ve still had to google it if I wasn’t still asleep#bc who tf knows what a fool in his folly means??#okay maybe I AM still asleep and maybe once I am awake I will realize it’s mad simple & I just embarrassed myself by admitting I didnt know#nah I can’t be the only one who didn’t know#and even if#not knowing something isn’t embarrassing#not asking questions or seeking knowledge out of embarrassment for not knowing#THATS embarrassing!#yup now I am just trying to make myself feel better but I also wholeheartedly believe that if it helped just one person it was worth it#bc I always LOVE the ppl who do things like that when I go to look at the comments and reposts to find out what stuff means
