Throwback thursday to when I was like 12 and I was putting out new writing DAILY...... Like entire Chapters of my then-current wips just, over an afternoon. What the fuck was I on

Nobody:

Me, age 12, just started drinking coffee:

I drew 14 pictures during the day, and wrote 32 pages a night. Now I can’t do shit.

A huge part of this is because you've gotten better! And now, when you're drawing/writing/doing whatever creative task, you're not just mindlessly throwing thoughts at your paper, you're thinking as you do it. Children can churn out a lot more work because it's not yet refined, but when you're older and have more practice, you work with all these thoughts running through your head about form and shape, color palettes or word choice. Now, you're making a dozen decisions with every moment of work, and you're also questioning the decisions you've just made, wondering if you can do it better. Don't beat yourself up about producing less work now than you did back then, because every sentence or shape involves a lot more effort for you now, than it did when you were ten and brand new to this hobby.

Also you have a job now and the never-ending bullshit that is laundry and dishes and feeding yourself.

Since July is Disability Pride Month

(as opposed to every other month when we're all demure about disability rights /gentle sarcasm)

I wanted to highlight one of my favorite artists: Liberal Jane.

What the fuck is this??????????

Folks: you CANNOT censor trigger tags. When you block a tag, it doesn't block other "spellings" of it. Writing it as "r@pe" or "r4p3" means that someone who has "tw rape" as a blocked tag will still see that post because you didn't wanna say the word rape. You are hurting people. Do not censor words, because people do not have those filtered out.

And honestly if you can't even write the word rape to protect other people then you probably aren't old/mature enough to be on this website.

This right here, if you want to consor something post a tw but stop censoring the words! it defeats the purpose of someone being able to block the content. 

@confirmedgeckos is sending a dragon our way! Luckily we don't have any meat on our bones!

watch nimona on netflix 🔥

Anyway if you see this you have to reblog and tag with a delight from ur day -- even the littlest thing counts

ACTIVATING DEATH RAY

Your death will be quick and pineless

My life is now better with this pun in it.

nice personality disorder did your mom give it to you

I should say this because it's apparently not common knowledge.

Romani people aren't people from Romania.

Romanian people are people from Romania

Romani people are a nomadic group rich in culture found all across Europe. Usually comprised of brown skin and dark brown hair.

Based on language, culture, and history, it I'd guessed that Romani people originated from Northern India and migrated towards Europe between the 5th and 10th century (which is a really long fucking time ago).

And the g-slur often associated with Romani people is a slur and was attributed to the Romani people by people that lived in England because it Perugia stood for "Egyptian" but they attributed everyone of that complection to that word (which is now considered a slur because it was used to associate Romani people with thrives and swindles)

"Romani" is what that consider themselves in they're own language.

Happy Eid ul-Adha(or Bakrid, or Eid Mubarak) to any people of the Muslim faith this year! This is for 6/29/2023

I was on a ferris wheel today and this is what the seats looked like

Clearly the designers/builders/whatever understand color theory

The new ferris wheel for our local children's hospital lifts the hearts of our patients, the seat design especially gives strong vibes of compassion and strength!

LOVERS IN ARMS

[ID: digital art of two white unicorns with crossed horns. One unicorn has a mane and tail with the colors of the trans pride flag, and the other has a rainbow mane and tail. They are wearing golden collars with a broken chain between them. A banner at the bottom of the image reads “lovers in arms”. End ID.]

Let's slay another day

Me +10 years ago: Hiii guys, I'm sorry, English is not my native language so excuse me if I make any mistakes! Tell me if I do :3

Me today: If anyone interrupts me about a spelling mistake or makes fun of my accent I'm switching this conversation to my native language, see how you manage. Kus mijn kloten, bitch.
