what should i draw this weekend

[p0tat0-g0ddess]

”this $299 set of blender implements makes a great holiday gift!” You know what else makes a great holiday gift? Their favorite candy bar. A day spent together. A handmade beaded bracelet with an inside joke. One of those custom printed T shirts for their favorite niche interest. A bouquet of flowers. A four-hour phone call talking about the dumbest crap. A silly hat for their pet. you do not need to break the bank to show someone that you care

fun fact even if you're self employed and on your own schedule you can still appreciate the weekends because there's no fucking emails coming in

I normally keep my mouth shut when a comment annoys me, because I maintain it's not really fair for an author to use their platform to go after individual readers who may or may not expect the author to read their comments (though we do!). But since this guy has left half a dozen of these little CinemaSins-ass "ding!" comments in my inbox I am cashing in my single-use Author Bad Behavior voucher to invite people to point and laugh at them

A paper presented at the Seventh Ulidia Conference on the Ulster Cycle of Tales, held at Ulster University, Belfast, June 2024.

No, this was not the official title of my paper.

Yes, this was my actual final slide and did remain on the screen for some time.

Yes, a few people laughed.

No, nobody brought it up afterwards. In fact, all the senior scholars were being incredibly nice about my paper, which suggests they read this in the most accurate way (completely sincerely and innocently).

This is probably for the best.

Submission form mysteries unraveled!

People who want to submit more than 1 photo at a time need to use the tumblr app to send their stuff in. The app allows you to attach up to 10 images in one post as well as add your own tags! I'm not a phone person myself and I know this isn't ideal for everyone but is the easiest on us who tag the inbox.

PC and browser tumblr users get the old style form with one image only. Some frustrated folks send in multiple images as a giant ask, and that's not ideal. We can't edit the ask to remove items against our TOS and often have to throw whole submissions out.

If you're on PC and using Legacy tumblr, your submissions come in broken, untaggable, and often have to go to the void for that alone. If there are phobias I can't tag, I just have to throw it away. I beg you to turn OFF legacy mode before you send things in.

tumblr ain't perfect, but it's the one social media place where you guys can send in your goofball finds this way and we love y'all and don't want you getting frustrated at the process. Thank you @this-is-not-a-slow-burn for helping me figure this out once and for all!

funniest part of being in classics is finding out that there's a listserv that anyone can use if they want to email every classicist ever second funniest part is signing up for the listserv and realizing every single message is formatted exactly like junk mail and half the messages are someone doing the listserv equivalent of a reply all
