my sibling added me onto their gamer discord and it’s like documenting a foreign species sometimes
one person broke their hand punching a wall and everyone just starts casually mentioning how many holes they’ve punched in the walls like??? that is not a good reaction my friends
had a dream about getting married last night and two things stand out a: the absolute joy and happiness my wife and i felt whenever we were apart for like a moment to change rooms or go eat or whatever and then reunited and b: some fucker dared to bring a pet raccoon to my wedding
But was the raccoon the ring bearer? We need to know.
absolutely NOT the raccoon pissed on the floor and then blockaded the hallway, thereby separating me from my wife and causing a very distraught dream sequence

in personal news i am absolutely speedrunning my master’s degree it’s been two and a half weeks and i’ve finished six classes. unfortunately not as much sigil-making opportunities as my previous degrees seeing as i am not sitting in a lecture hall taking notes
every couple of weeks i get bored and sift through my half-finished plans of creating a tradwife blog with my viking alter ego, an enthusiastic but quiet man who just wants to bake bread and tell the world how amazing his high-earning wife is
i haven’t done it but if i can’t get into a masters program i need something to do with my time.
i call myself a godless heathen a lot bc it’s true and funny but i’ve also started calling myself a filthy commie lately (not as true but still funny) and that’s the one that my mom draws a line at. i can be as barbaric and ungodly as i want but no communism in this house
Hey all! It’s been a minute since I was active - I’d love to start doing stimboards again, so send in requests if you’d like! I’ll try to get the older ones done too ⚡
One of the commenters over on Instagram came up with a cool idea for a small stats project, and I need to gather a little data before I can try it out, so–
What are some of y'all’s favorite cross stitch designers? (including yourselves, if you’d like )
To the Dave (Going by Davey) who sent in a positivity request, we’re sorry but we don’t feel equipped to properly handle your question. While your issues are absolutely valid, and we’re sorry that you’re struggling with those things, we encourage you to seek help from professionals on this. Since it seems like a delicate situation, and since we aren’t experts, nor do we have the full story, it would be very easy for us to make things worse for you. Some of the language in your ask also made it unclear of how you yourself perceive the situation and your opinions on aspects of it, making us unsure of how to address certain things.
We’d also like to take this opportunity to ask that anyone who sends in asks that include heavy subject matter to please put trigger warnings at the beginning of your requests. Although we always put trigger warnings in the tags of posts that need them, some mods may need to avoid certain things, and it makes it easier for us to do so if you tell us what to expect.
We are not professionals, and while we do accept things that include heavy topics, please think about what kind of request it is and what the topics are before you decide if a group of people running a kin blog is the best place to send it.
Addressing my previous post, I do say that I allowed my art to be reposted with credit. However, I discourage some of my work like commission and zine piece to be reposted. From now on, I put warning for which ones that I’m not allowed to repost.
….. wow so there’s like a whole lot more of you here than I remember there being… hi! (hm yeah 2am is still a normal time to post on tumblr right?)
I’ll be honest this tumblr’s been dormant for quite a while save for self-promo… BUT I’m thinking of reviving it again.
I originally posted myth about myths posts, I’m thinking of restarting the book now that I have a better grasp of what I’d like out of the project. I’m thinking i might post those here and see where it goes… maybe post a few snapshots of pages from my myth retellings~
god just trying to avoid my final papers by looking for Demon Slayer Tengen fic on ao3 and it’s all smut or oneshot books >:( want something done right gotta do it myself ig damn
I think the thing that worries me so much about this tumblr plus bullshit isn’t the fact that creators can put their stuff behind a pay wall - for everyday regular bloggers that’s fine! Do what you want I guess.
But fanfiction writers CANNOT do this. Point blank PERIOD!
And some might say “oh but Aeryn it’s a choice! You don’t have to do it!” And, yes I KNOW this. I know it’s a choice. But younger fanfic creators out there may not be aware of the absolute shit show that went down several years ago where people SUED fanfiction writers over their work. And that is dangerous for many reasons.
These companies that own the characters we love do. Not. Care. About us. They will sue us the second some fanfic creator unwittingly uses this paywall to gain money from their fanfiction works. That is illegal. You CANNOT do that. You cannot gain money from fanfiction Bc technically it isn’t yours. The characters and the worlds are not ours and if just one of us gets caught doing it tumblr will get sued and we all know they don’t have the money to fight them and tumblr will go poof.
This post isn’t meant to be rude or demeaning or condescending. I am just genuinely so so worried about this because if it takes off, tumblr as a fandom space is as good as gone. And as much as I call this place a “hell site” I do love it. I love the community I’ve built here and the friends I’ve made and I don’t want to lose it because of the IDIOTS at yahoo want more money.
*sigh* so - please complain to tumblr about this and hope to god it doesn’t actually happen. For all fanfic writers sake.
Art theft sucks. Don’t repost/redo creative’s works without permission. If you’re inspired by someone else’s art or writing and want to make something similar/based off of another creative’s work, keep it in your drafts. Don’t post it as your own.
To be inspired by other’s work is natural. To post it as your own is theft.
