People on twitter are acting like Artfight is more about getting free art from big artists you like by attacking them and less about appreciating original characters (which have been relentlessly bullied by almost every community for years now) and its getting annoying so heres your reminder that you should be drawing oc designs you like and nobody is obligated to attack you or at all

The problem with being low support needs is that people mentally autocorrect that to “no support needs” and then proceed to give you absolutely nothing and then get surprised when you implode after six months.

Like you do need to recognise sometimes that a person is not picking up your social cues and adjust your communication style accordingly. If someone isn't understanding you then you need to change up how you're communicating and not just say the same thing over & over.

i’m going to be really honest with you guys i think the tendency to read the absolute worst possible intentions into every action you don’t agree with is getting too automatic and it’s eating you from the inside out

white supremacists one day decided to frame woke as a bad thing and use it as a perjorative and y’all just immediately went along with it posing absolutely no resistance now i gotta hear ppl say “it’s not woke to be antiracist”

i was on here in 2015 when the michael brown ferguson uprisings were happening and i remember as a 14 year old in all my rage i completely changed my blog to focus exclusively on the protests and i remember using the hashtag stay woke and knowing what it meant even then and its crazy to see how 10 years later all it took was a bunch of nazis on fox news and inflammatory engagement bait twitter bots for your average liberal to adopt this whitewashed interpretation of the term

and if we really wanna go there i could talk about how yall doing this shit time and time again especially with terminology originating from the Black community that has historically been used to describe the various systems of oppressive violence we have been subjected to operates as a sort of collective gaslighting effort that genuinely makes me and other black folks feel like we're going insane all the fucking time. like genuinely think about how disturbing it is that so many words which for the longest time have held very specific significances to this particular community can just in the blink of an eye be bastardized and made essentially unusable in its original context just bc yall say so. yall force(d) this language into our mouths under threat of the most unimaginable violence and when we put our own spin on it, infuse our own localized dialects and slang, you reach into our mouths and pull the word from our throats and take it for yourself and turn it into something so ugly and despicable and utterly unrecognizable. if i really wanted to go there i could say that y'all do this shit for fun and revel in distressing black folks through the evisceration of our lexicon. i truly think y'all get a fucking kick out of this and i want yall to kill the ironypilled colonizer in your head that finds this shit so easy and even enjoyable to do

Every year Tumblr holds its sexy people contests. And as a result controversial figures around the world seem to die. I purpose we sacrifice Donald Trump for this years contests.

My hope is tomorrow I wake to the notification of this post rebloged with Apollos dodge ball.

Same

addicted to overanalyzing music and applying it to my ocs

actually annoyed by long distance friends again. i want to go for a walk i want to get drinks i want to sit in the grass and write i want to go to the fucking store together

okay not to ocpost again but the worst thing about having an oc is sometimes they become The Character to you. and you need to talk to someone about it like wow I can’t stop thinking about The Character… but in order to do so you have to like sit them down and explain everything about your oc first. and then it’s just you explaining your writing ideas. i need to talk about them the same way i would talk about any random character i love to someone.

yall are so fucking weird about gnc people. a woman wears a suit and she's "conforming to the patriarchy". a man wears a skirt and he's Secretly A Trans Egg. have you considered It's Fabric

Do you remember the episode of Spongebob where he's training gary for the snail race and does a coach persona + calls gary a girl and has an aside where he's like "I called you a lady to demean you 🤓" and right after he says that it cuts to sandy and she somehow telepathically feels that Spongebob just did something misogynistic and us like I feel like I need to kick Spongebobs ass for some reason. And then she appears just at the end of the episode to kick his ass.

"I love you but you're doing wrong in a way I cannot condone" and "I hate you but you're being wronged in a way I cannot stomach" are top tier and I need more of them.
