It's this sad/weird feeling creeping into your bones when you look at the blogs you've been following cause they wrote such an amazing stuff and now you find them inactive for a long, long time, or find that they deleted all their stuff :(((

Venom war spoilers

I had to reread Venom War #5 to realize how much I didn't like this run... I mean, this ending was so bad and rushed.

the outcome that Meridius had was so mediocre. He had a cool idea and an interesting construction, but it all ended so quickly, like ?????? right, and now??????

the Other and Eddie again being forced apart, Dylan this time is alone... what should I expect from All-new Venom and Eddie Brock as Carnage??

I feel hopeless now and I'm going to whine about it for a while!

i'm pausing my queue for the day too, someone remind me tomorrow to turn it back on

[konigceo]

what do i even do for my birthday

[very-uncorrect]

I don't think I'm gonna buy Horse Ranch lol

[jasper-crow]

I hate how much the cost of everything has increased. But you know what the worst one is?

Veterinary costs.

I have two big girls

This is Nienna and Turin.

Respectively they are a runt Great Pyrenees/Newfoundland mix and a lovely husky/border collie mutt with brain damage.

Nienna has been limping lately and drinking too much water. We called up a local vet (we live on 2.5 acres in a rural area) to get a quote on her getting checked out and treated.

You know how much it would be?

$1200+ just for diagnostics

And we can't afford that. That's a third of our mortgage. That's car repair money. That's almost a dozen grocery runs. That's more than half of one of my paychecks.

We got these girls almost a decade ago now. I remember taking them in to get shots and fixed and forking over $300 each and being done. And less than a decade later I'll need to fork over 4X that much just to be told she likely needs something else we can't afford.

This isn't a donation post. I don't want others stretched thin to be giving me money for my dog. That's not my goal here.

Why aren't we allowed to own animals anymore? Why do the rich get to treat their animals and I get to watch my baby suffer?

Why are they exploiting my love for my girls for money?

INCREDIBLY bored.

As gen-AI becomes more normalized (Chappell Roan encouraging it, grifters on the rise, young artists using it), I wanna express how I will never turn to it because it fundamentally bores me to my core. There is no reason for me to want to use gen-AI because I will never want to give up my autonomy in creating art. I never want to become reliant on an inhuman object for expression, least of all if that object is created and controlled by tech companies. I draw not because I want a drawing but because I love the process of drawing. So even in a future where everyone’s accepted it, I’m never gonna sway on this.

refraining from a lot of election joke posting and instead I just donated $55 USD to gaza soup kitchen and i encourage anyone else to consider donating even a couple of dollars to the people who will be affected the most from whatever outcome happens

EDIT: please also consider donating to this family their 93% to their goal!! and also please check out this post featuring more places to donate

[darkwood-sleddog]

if you're waking up like me thinking "where do we even go from here?"

you:

build community & involve yourself locally

learn self sustainability skills

choose kindness

protect others & yourself

join or build a mutual aid group and/or network

find time for small joys (the arts, cooking a meal you love, spending time with loved ones, etc.)

Hey hey hey listen to me [snaps my fingers in front of your face] you’re not going to be mean to kids joining Tumblr because TikTok got banned right? You’re not going to make fun of them because they’re ‘cringe’, especially on the supposed ‘cringe is dead’ app, right? You’re not going to go out of your way to just be hostile to children because you don’t like them, right?

“Oh but they deserve it, they’re annoying” cunts were saying that shit about you when you were ‘uwuing’ and ‘smol beaning’ on here in 2015. Kids will always be annoying and your generation, nor will you, ever be an exception to that rule. This app isn’t like an exclusive club, be fucking nice for once.

Edit: Since some people have brought it up in here tags

“Most of the TikTok kids aren’t going here, they’re going to Red Note” That’s fine, in fact, I’m very happy to see the Chinese community there welcoming them with open arms! However, it’s not like we aren’t going to have any kids join this site. I’ve already seen some join before the ban was imminent and most of them are children fandom artists. I stand by what I said, be nice to them.

If they don’t understand the culture here, teach them in a way that isn’t outright rude! Tell them about the lack of an algorithm and the fact they have to follow people for content! Tell them reblogs are more important than likes! Tell them they can leave notes for the OP or for the person they reblogged it from in the tags; that you can treat it like a little diary if you want!

And most of all, tell them that it’s okay, they don’t have to censor themselves here. After years of being on that app they’ve grown used to it, but you have to get it through their head that censoring words like ‘Kill’ ‘Murder’ ‘Rape’ ‘Pedophile’ isn’t helping ANYONE, they’re just making it harder for folks who have those tags blocked to be able to filter them out. Help them kill the cop in their brain and make sure they don’t fall into purity culture. Help them be cringe and free.
