what's the most ridiculous hill that you think thomas would die on? doesn't have to be like, a big idea or something, it can be a tiny little thing. who agrees with him, who says they're neutral, who disagrees, and who is sitting back with popcorn/other snack of choice watching the drama?

this was a very good question, i had no ideas for it so imma put it in the tag and see if anyone comes up with anything fun for it alskdjf

Hi hello I was just thinking it'd been a literal month since I saw you post anything. I am also Going Through It™ right now, this time of year fucking sucks and I hate it. Gang gang. 🤝

Asking in the optimistic assumption I'll be sapient enough to do anything with the information: you take really fucking nice pictures of yourself. Hot, obviously, but also just proficient in a technical sense. D'you have any tips on doing that? I am considering doing this for personal horny reasons and I feel like I need all the help I can get.

Ding ding ding, correct! I don't know when my queue ran out but I think it was about a month I was gone. Hope you're taking care of yourself as best you can! It's all any of us can do

Thank you! I wanted to come back to this when I had more brain to give a good answer, but I don't think that's gonna happen so let's see what I can give off the cuff:

Experiment - most of my experience is just from trial and error. Take 10, 20, 30 photos from different angles with different lighting, different props etc. Take videos where you or your camera move, play it back slowly. You're not trying to take a perfect photo, you're looking for little things you like, routes to explore. In photo #3 you like the way the blanket was draped over you, in photo #8 the light hit you in interesting ways. As you walked away from the camera in the video, you saw yourself at an angle you don't normally see and you kinda like it. These are things you can learn to recreate

Don't get disheartened by bad pictures. Easier said than done maybe, and 'proper' photographers might hate me for saying this next bit, but it's ok to take 50 pics and delete 49. For every good pic I take, some others get deleted for being ugly and grating on insecurities, some are ok enough to keep but kinda meh, some I keep knowing that I dislike them but future me might like them

Lighting is very important! You can play with colour (golden sunlight, artificial white, RGB LEDs), brightness and coverage (what's lit and what isn't? Camera flash will be fairly focused and create strong shadows, evenly lit room makes for softer blending)

Improvise. I don't have any fancy equipment, I have a mid-range 4 year old phone and I treated myself last year to a selfie stick that has tripod legs. Mostly I balance my phone on things and make heavy use of the camera timer. Which also reduces camera shake in selfie mode, since any motion from you hitting the button has a few seconds to level out. I'm lucky enough to get some lovely sunlight coverage in my bedroom, but otherwise my lighting comes from LED torches, desk lamps, anything really

If you can, find someone enthusiastic to share the pics with. I'm only brave enough to share so many now because of a long line of hype people. Like most creative things, having an audience can be a burst of motivation and excitement, gives you a reason to push yourself and show off a little

It's OK if you don't love your body yet. It's a journey. Taking pictures and videos can be a way of seeing your body differently. You can see your thighs every day from your POV, but how often do you see them from below, between, behind? In motion when you bend? There's beauty everywhere, sometimes you're just not looking at it from the right angle

Maybe I had more brain than I realised ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

My two secret weapons. LED head torch (cheap, has adjustable elastic strap to attach it anywhere, very bright) and a roll of tape. The phone fits neatly in the cardboard ring, which provides stability on soft surfaces. Don't ask me how I took that photo though, and don't @ me for the dusty phone <3

Tea I’ve been thinking a lot about carlos in a crop top and needed to share.

The way it would cling to his shoulders and chest but get a little looser at his waist.

The way his abs would be exposed, his belly button and happy trail. The vee of his hips.

He’d wear one around the house in tandem with his grey sweats, knowing your eyes would be glued to him as he walked by.

He’d smirk as your face got hot, a blush rising to your cheeks. Coming over to you, he’d stop right in front of where you are sitting on the couch, your eyes level with his stomach.

He’d scratch at his belly, watching how your eyes followed the movement and you licked your lips.

With a soft chuckle he’d smile down at you knowingly,

“What is it sweet cheeks?”

GOD HOW DID YOU KNOW MY WEAKNESS

How are you doing?

I’ve been hospitalised with poisoning that was shutting down major organs and it feels like nobody cares. So. Not great.

[spot-of-tea]

What's the inspiration for your username? If there is one.

Haha that's a really funny story actually. So some of my friends and I constantly quote lines from a youtube creator called tomska and in one of his videos he does a very bad(but extremely funny) impression of a brit and in the line are the words spot of tea.

Being a brit myself it cracks me up everytime we make the joke and I wanted something that was just very me but also something that would make me smile everytime I saw it, so yeh I guess that's the story there :3 ~Tea

Watching 03 for the first time and Mikey is currently my favorite (I love the show so far btw, it honestly might tie with rise to be my favorite rn)

But I just saw clash of the turtle titans and wow that episode was kinda hard to sit through

Personally it might be my least favorite 03 episode, but I was curious on your thoughts and opinions of this ep

hey, glad you’re enjoying it! i gotta say, you have good taste lol

oh my god, yeah. clash of the turtle titans is… something.

i remember watching it for the first time (i watched fast forward before seasons 1-5) and since i didn’t fully understand all the character development that he went through, it was fine? played him off to be a total jerk but by then he was already my fav so i was just cringing through his tantrum.

but AFTER seeing him go through all that character development - it does feel out of character. i mean, i can understand him being jealous and feeling ripped off, but the mikey we’ve seen in the past five seasons has gone through a LOT and has reacted more maturely in worse circumstances. it feels like regression AND an amplification of his worst qualities for the writers to have him act like that.

and yea, people regress and have bad days. another straw will break the camel’s back.

but it’s not played off to be that way, which is probably what bugs me the most. by all accounts, mikey has been having a blast in 2105 - walking around without hiding, all the new tech and video games to explore, new foods from different planets to try. they don’t show him having a hard time like raph, so him getting bent up over Turtle Titan II just feels very forced.

i could easily come up with an explanation based on my own headcanons and thoughts, but if the writers themselves didn’t actually put it in canon, it’s still just speculation. which means mikey was just being a brat that day.

i know they went through a change in writers and animators with seasons 6 and 7 but they didn’t have to do my boy so dirty 😭

Hey, hey! Was wondering if you know of any TMR discords? I'm getting into my fandoms more and I am joining discords! :o

Thank you!

hi! there's different ones (but honestly many of them have the same people in them yhsnsh)

thomesa week server (that's mine, here: https://discord.gg/DBHnqkff )

thominho week server - ask nix @mazegays

newtmas server - ask molly @itsthemxze

NSFW server - you need to be 18+ for this one!

- can i ask whether you're just randomly asking me or bc you've seen someone mention my name in connection to tmr servers? bc a while ago i was getting a bunch of asks like this by people i didn't even know and then one of them said my blog was mentioned in a pinterest comment section for who to ask about tmr discords. which was weird to me, and i've been wanting to find that post lol

[spicedtealeaves]

Your hands are so 😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫

Need to be your toy 🥺

So glad you like them! They're multipurpose, from giving out little scritches and pets to pinning desperate toys to the ground. After I've finished making a mess of you, you might even be permitted to lick them clean

Hey I want to ask you a question about the new tag acespec mafia.

While scrolling the tag just now I saw someone sending anon hate to a user for using/promoting the tag, and basically saying that it's bad because it uses the word mafia.

Because of this I wanted to confirm why the tag was named this.

I've been assuming it's because of the older tag/term "alphabet mafia" as a joking term in the queer community, is this close/the correct reason for the name of the tag?

Yes, I intended for it to be like the term "alphabet mafia", it's also because I couldn't think of anything else

I should probably come up with something else, just to prevent anon hate messages-

Favorite Leon Kennedy era? You give me ID or Vendetta lover vibes…

Ah, you would be correct! I definitely prefer Vendetta Leon because I find the look at his mental state intriguing but I also adore his portrayal in Infinite Darkness. ID Leon is probably my personal favorite to write because he's not quite completely jaded but he's feeling the pressure of being overworked and just full on shouldering the idea that it's his duty to protect those he cares about
