number 8 please :D >>You hope more people will come to appreciate... (a ship, a trope, an episode, etc)

Sorry for the wait, been swamped with other stuff recently. (;^^)

Uhh this took some thought but I really want more people to appreciate Gordon being responsible and reliable/Gordon being a big brother trope.

It's common to see him and Alan being grouped as "the babies" and the others as "the older bros" and within the older bros there's lots of them taking turns in being the shoulder to cry on and taking charge which I don't see a lot with the younger two.

Icarus wasn't a great episode in terms of story but the reason why it's one of my favourites is because we actually get to see Gordon being very emotionally in touch with others and being a big brother to Tom the competition winner. Tom immediately latches to this squid like a limpet and Gordon is surprised but just kinda accepts his role of babysitter, no complaints. He's super patient, he always listens to what Tom has to say, he explains things to him in a way that a kid would understand but also doesn't dumb it down as if Tom is stupid or anything, he supports Tom and reassures and comforts him, he celebrates his victories with him, he lets Tom hold his hand and wraps his arm around him and ruffles his hair. At the end when Tom changes his mind about his favourite thunderbird, Gordon isn't upset or disappointed or anything and while Alan is kinda freaking out at this kid's logic, Gordon's just grabs his new little buddy and takes him off to get a treat as a job well done.

Gordon just accepts this child unconditionally. Tom chose Gordon, he sees Gordon as a safe person and Gordon takes Tom under his wing, no questions asked. Gordon doesn't know this kid like at all and yet he still treated Tom with above and beyond care and compassion, it would have been so easy for Gordon to have pushed Tom onto Penny, she volunteered to take him but when Tom wanted to stay he respected that.

I love this side of Gordon and I'm kinda disappointed we didn't get more of it and I feel like it needs more attention. It's one of the reasons I post a lot about Squirt, because it creates a dynamic that I love that you don't get with any other character.

Again sorry for the delay on my answer, anyway big bro Gordon is the best you can't change my mind.✨

[chaoticsquiddo]

"because tbh I don't think the canon designs represented their actual individual talents."

Proceeds to just give Apple Bloom an apple mark with no hint to either of her teased talents (carpentry or potion making)

Yikes!! I hope you like school because your rather rude and unwarranted ask has opened you up to a lecture about cutiemarks!! So sit down, grab a snack and let's begin!!✨

Cutiemarks don't have to be literal in their representation, a lot of the Mane 6's marks don't have images specific to their hobbies and talents.

Fluttershy has butterflies and her talent is caring for and talking to animals. Rarity has gems and her talent is her eye for beauty and sewing. Applejack literally just has 3 apples on her flank and they represent her home, her famiy and her destiny to run the farm.

I'm gonna deconstruct Applebloom's cutiemark for you.

The apple is obviously representative of her family like the other Apple's cutiemarks, the core is in the shape of a heart which represents her caring spirit and her passion and enthusiasm towards anything she does, the flower (like Rarity) represents her eye for artistic beauty and her journey to finally getting her mark and finally "blossoming".

That concludes today's class!! And Anon, if you're pissed about the fact that some random artist on Tumblr didn't make a drawing exactly the way you want it to be, then idk, touch some grass or something lol it's not the end of the world.🍎🌸

[thatkidwholikesthunderbirds]

Your art style is very cutesy and absolutely adorable. I hope you keep on drawing and being yourself.

Thank you, I've been going through a really rough time these past couple of days so this was a very nice notification to see pop up on my screen.💛💛

I go by Toffee, Moth, or Grey. Listed from most preferred to least preferred but all are fine. Either name works, as well as any of my usernames from any of my accounts. I'll also probably respond to any name that's just a word or one of my kins' names lmao

By the way, I do swear A Whole Lot™, so if you have a problem with that I recommend not interacting 👍

Also please don't send in any fundraiser asks, I cannot verify whether or not they're real and so I never get to them

My kintypes

Princess from Warrior Cats Kin Memories

I use any pronouns, personal favorites are it/it's and any "silly" neopronouns + neopronouns related to kintypes and interests

I am a demiboygirl + xenogender creature who is aegosexual, aroflux, aplatonic, and cupiosensual

I have been diagnosed with ADHD, Tourettes Syndrome, and have been diagnosed with Autism "unofficially" (whatever that means idk myself anymore). I have also been diagnosed with asthma. I probably also have Insomnia, but that hasn't been diagnosed.

My interests are A Whole Lot, but the more major/non-specific ones are Minecraft, Warrior Cats, Pokémon, Portal 1+2, A lot of different MCYTs (mainly Squiddo, Zeemyth, LDShadowLady, Doctor4t, and Calvin), AvA/AvM, FNaF (not as much as I used too but I must add it), Cattails n Cattails Wildwood story, Clangen, The Backrooms, Various Roblox Games, and many many analog horror series. Oh, and my special interest is cats and anything cat-related :3

I am taken and a minor. Please do not send anything sexual or romantic about/towards me, however I am fine with sexual jokes and such; as long as it's not about me I'm good. Also I can't believe I have to say this but don't send me asks about wanting to FUCK ANIMALS AND/OR CHILDREN???

I take moodboard and drawing requests for pretty much anyone. I will delete your request if I feel the need too though. Please send requests and asks I love getting them even if it takes me a million years to get to them 'cause I never check my inbox-

This tumblr sexyman descendants idea is the most idea ever I must say. I’m gonna be thinking about this all week, thank you for your service 💖

^_^

[melmac78]

Folks who may be trying to get to my ask but can’t access it:

I had to put it in a different mode at a time because I had a constant harassing person (politic driven mind you, not otherwise) who started doing burner accounts to go after me.

Now, I haven’t figured out the fix, and nearly deleted my account. (Don’t ask… just know I go by a complete nom de plume on another site because I mixed up name and email. Mel is indeed a diminutive of my name, though I don’t use it specifically).

Unless I figure it out soon, if you want to send me one for @squiddokiddo’s Thunderbird asks (and thanks Squiddo for alerting me) please inbox me.

I appreciate your understanding.

Ask Aunt Spoon! Live Art Stream - October 27th, 4PM PST

Hey, squiddos--! Sorry for the long spell of radio silence. Work and the recent Splatfest has made this week a bit hectic for us, so we haven’t had much time to answer asks.

So, in order to help us catch up to things, as well as let you all get to know the folks behind Ask Aunt Spoon! a little better, we’ve decided to hold a livestream!* 

The stream will be on Saturday, October 27th, at 4PM Pacific Standard Time.  Stream link: https://picarto.tv/AskAuntSpoon# We’ll reblog reminders as it gets close to time!

We’ll be answering asks - both from the inbox and from the live chat - during the stream, so feel free to drop in on the mayhem while we’re up! 

See you there--!

-- Aunt Spoon & Staff

*Disclaimer - Content of stream may contain inappropriate or mature humor. We’ll try to keep it to a minimum, though!

[squiddokiddo]

Love your fandom asks:

11: if you're a writer or artist, what fic or piece of art are you proud of making?

Thx for asking.✨

I have a few I'll link here:

This is one of my newer ones and I made it when I was feeling extremely ill and ready to give up, I hadn't touched Thunderbirds in ages and I really needed some comfort. The Gordon on the bottom left was the one I drew first and is also my personal favourite.

Gordon's birthday piece from this year, I always make one and idk, there's just something about this one.

This one, I had an idea for updating/modernising/TAGifying the old International Rescue logo and it somehow evolved into this. I personally think I did pretty good. Looking back, there's some tweaking I'd do but overall it holds up well. (Also it's my most popular Thunderbirds piece sooo)

Havoc, Fuse and The Mechanic are characters I'm not all that familiar with and I'll forever be surprised at how well this piece came out despite that.

Ask game

[chaoticsquiddo]

Hey, I love your artwork, so, I was wondering, is that okay to help you with ideas to draw, cause I'm an editor, so I can send you a photo, that can help you, if you like to?

Hey, thanks for your kind words about my artwork.

I'm very confused as to what you mean by "editor", I edit all my own drawings if I need to. Also I'm ok for inspiration thanks, if I get stuck I usually just bounce ideas off my friends.

This bit though: "A photo that can help you"? It kinda sounds like you want to commission me to make art for you but you want it for free, so you're phrasing it like you're doing me a favour and not the other way around. I've also seen that you've been asking this to other artists too which is kinda sketchy tbh.

So yeah, no thank you.

[mellohiizz]

cmon now you gotta give the disease riddled freak (ash) his buddies (red n squid)

okay fine i guess the ugly freak can have his buddies....

You Can Become A Pro At Making Money Online With The Help Of This Article

When you wish to make money online you may be thinking of it because you want to get paid well. It can also just be something you want to do to help you get a few extra bills paid. Whatever the case may be, this article can guide you through this.

Even though you may be able to make money online regularly, keeping physical records of your work and earnings is still important. Print out the data from a well-maintained spreadsheet or keep a notebook by your computer. Keep accurate and up to date information that you will later need for tax purposes, to verify income or just for your own purposes. Data can be lost all too easily online.

If you can write, sites like Squiddo or InfoBarrel may be helpful to you. These sites will let you pick the topic of your choice and share a portion of the revenue. Additionally, you can also use Amazon’s affiliate program to increase your earning potential.

Before you set your heart on making money online, set your household up. Making sure you are free from interruptions can be a very important part of your success. Children, spouses and other people can cut you off at the most inconvenient times. Make sure your time is your own, so you can maximize earnings.

Provide services to people on Fiverr. This is a site that allows people to get anything that they want from media design to promotions for a flat rate of five dollars. There is a one dollar charge for each service that you sell, but if you do a high quantity, the profit can add up.

If you are knowledgeable about a particular subject, put your knowledge to work for you. There are many companies, such as about.com, that will pay you for your knowledge. Most of these sites do require you to write a certain number of articles each month; however, this is a fantastic way to bump up your earnings.

Enter contests and sweepstakes. By just entering one contest, your odds aren’t great. Your odds are substantially better, however, when you enter multiple contests regularly. Taking a little time to enter a few free contests daily could really pay off in the future. Make a new e-mail account just for this purpose. You don’t want your inbox overflowing with spam.

Check out online forums dedicated to helping you find legitimate online work opportunities. There are many geared towards niches which you can find people just like you on, such as work at home mom forums. Once you join the community, you’ll be geared towards making lots of money online!

Offer to advertise for others. Putting advertisements on your own website is a great way to make money. If your blog is popular, it is sure to appeal to merchants who wish to advertise online. The ad re-directs the readers to another site where they can shop.

If you are dedicated to making money online, you should be following blogs on the topic. You need to spend 20% of your time learning about the online market and 80% working through it. Blogs are a great way to find out about new opportunities or beneficial tips and tricks.

Taking online surveys is a great way to make money online, but you should not look at it as a full-time income. The best thing to do would be to do this in addition to your regular employment. Joining multiple will help increase your earnings, so sign up for as many as you can.

If you want to make money online, have accounts set up with both PayPal and Amazon Payments. Many websites and income opportunities use one of these two methods to pay you for your work. This is especially true of PayPal in general online, so at least have that account set up.

Try publishing your own eBook to bring in a little extra money. Self publishing is something that people have found to be a great way to make money these days. This is an excellent way to earn money if you like to write or you know a lot about a certain field. There are various publishing platforms, some of which have commission rates of 70% or more.

If you like to make things, consider selling your items on Etsy. This is a crafts marketplace growing in popularity around the Internet. Users from around the world can browse over items made by individual craftsmakers looking to sell and ship their wares to anyone interested. Regardless of your own self-criticism or self-confidence, make anything you can and try to sell it to see if it is a hit or not.

Getting paid money to work online isn’t the easiest thing to do in the world, but it is possible. If this is something you wish to work with, then the tips presented above should have helped you. Take some time, do things the right way and then you can succeed.

❤: Which character do you think is the most egregiously mischaracterized by the fandom? >:3

I think a lot of them are mischaracterised in fandom, there's a lot of fanon stuff I just disagree with.

I think the most though is probably Jeff. The fandom seems split over what kind of father he is, either down right neglectful and absent leaving Scott to pick up the pieces or this amazing, involved with everything, knows his boys like the back of his hand kinda dad.

Jeff barely has 20 mins of screen time in TAG so it's difficult to get an idea of who he really is but going off of TOS, I think he's a reasonably stern but fair military dad who wants to be involved with his kids' lives more but his job (and also being missing for like 8 years) has prevented him from doing it. He has a kinda "hands off" parenting style, through out their childhoods, he's always known his boys were responsible enough to deal with themselves mostly and grandma was around all the time to cook and keep an eye out for them, but his kids could always poke their heads around his office door when they need help. They love him and he loves them dearly but he's not really lovey dovey or affectionate beyond a brief dad hug and a pat on the back. Typical 1960's kinda parenting.
