Sorry to be a pain but do you do requests?

No worries! I’m currently taking requests from this list.

Talking to my polycule helped a ton with the depression and got me to do a coloring page. Maybe I’ll have spoons to write or do art tomorrow! I scheduled an impromptu therapy session for tomorrow morning as well. I have to get through this slump.

Currently not feeling inspired by anything. Maybe send in a number and characters and I’ll see what I come up with?

for a while there i was sympathetic to tumblr because of how much they’re in debt; i was kind of like “well of course they’re absolutely desperate for new users, they literally need the money or else tumblr goes down forever”. and then suddenly today it hit me that there’s actually no fucking reason for that debt to be causing these ui changes? the userbase has been INCREDIBLY clear about what they want from tumblr over the years, not to mention clear about the fact that even twitter people don’t need this place to look like twitter. it actually would be very… EASY? for them to just make changes in a direction people would actually be HAPPY with?

for fuck’s sake there were people trying to organize a “crab day” for tumblr despite tumblr doing nothing but telling us to go fuck ourselves for months on end. there were people spending hundreds of dollars on check marks just for the glee of MAKING FUN of twitter. can you IMAGINE how much money this userbase would donate to tumblr if they actually made ui updates geared toward what people have been asking for?

if tumblr actually crowdsourced ideas or even just LISTENED to their userbase it may have been possible for them to make way more money than they’re begging for now, they just insist on trying to drive their actual demographic and loyal userbase out for literally no reason

They are doing surveys that are really hard to find because their survey blog has reblogs disabled for some reason.

in order to remove the sexual stigma placed on breasts, we must move past the act of shaming people who are brave enough to go topless in public. myself and another transfem friend went topless at our local pride parade not because we were trying to be "sexual" at pride, but to protest the idea that some chests are viewed as inherently sexual and illegal to be viewed publicly, while some are not. it's not a sexual act for someone with breasts to take their shirt off.

i did not have anyone give me rude or sexual comments. i received a lot of approving nods, thumbs up and polite compliments, people were even reminding me that that's the spirit of pride, and hoped that they were brave enough to do the same in the future.

sometimes it's nearly 100 degrees and people with breasts get dangerously overheated. sometimes people with breasts just don't want to wear a shirt. their breasts are not an object for you to get upset about. their breasts are not an object for you to make a moral argument about. their breasts are a part of their body, and they're not scarring or hurting anyone by existing, they are another organ on the human body and someone else's breasts are not up for you to debate about.

Hi <3 I’ve been thinking of more reasons for a whumpee to hide their injuries✨️

  • they're still in the middle of a mission and they don't have any time to get medical attention either way so there's no reason to distract everyone else from their tasks
  • they don’t know! the adrenaline of the fight still hasn’t faded so they won’t know they’re bleeding until someone else sees the stain quickly spreading on their clothes
  • whumper wants them to be “perfect” and marks are an easy way to be “discarded”
  • Plain old “they believe they deserve whatever happened to them”
  • Another whumpee is injured and they’d rather use the limited supplies on them.
  • They know they won’t make it and they don’t want their last moments to be filled with people panicking and crying

The last one broke me, but I think the second to last one is my favorite. These are all so good!

Oh this could be an interesting one: a headcanon about their religion/lack thereof for the Dragon Riders?

Love this one.

Arguably they're more culturally Norse religion, because aside from Fishlegs being afraid to curse using Odin's name and the twins dedicating their lives to Loki, they aren't really all that religious in any sort of identifiable way.

Like, maybe it's my own projection since I'm Agnostic (though, I will admit: I believe Joan of Arc.) and culturally Christian, but yeah, I don't really see them that as that devout/religious.

Hel, the only references to praying we get are at the tail end of season 6, both from Hiccup:

“nothing I can do except stare at him and pray to the gods he gets better.” (Fishlegs does say "That sounds like a pretty good use of your time, actually." in response to that).

“You can either come with me and fight alongside me, or you can go back to Berk and pray I come back alive.” (To Astrid, who tells him "Where you go, I go." She was never gonna go back to Berk and pray.)

(And yeah, also, I believe background characters say they're praying for Stoick.)

I think it's fair to say they believe enough of their religion to reference it, given that they mention Niflheim, and Valhalla and all that, but are non-practicing/lapsed (to use a term sometimes by some Catholics). I would wager they'd still identify as that religion if asked about it.

I think Fishlegs is probably the most devout, though. Followed by the twins, but only for Loki.

Snotlout and Astrid? Eh, far less devout. More on the other end of the spectrum.

In addition: I've been banging pots and pans since A Matter of Perspective came out that Hiccup's religion is dragons. I still maintain that.

Yes!!! This was a fantastic answer! Thank you!

And Hiccup’s religion absolutely is dragons.

The WIP of my drawing I asked if I should show you all. I screenshot all three stages. But here is Hiccup with his twin sons, Hamish the third and Stoick the Second, and Toothless' five offspring (4 girls and 1 boy guess if you can). The scene may be in a story that I am writing, but who knows. First stage: pencil and pen on paper. (Stopped halfway through with the pen because I lost the ones I usually draw with and tried a different one and it started to smudge and I gave up and was like "welp gonna scan what I got and outline on photoshop before I ruin it more.")

Second stage: Photoshop outline. (My hand hurt after this... it took so long to remember how to outline on Photoshop and my new tablet and I were not on the same level...)

Third stage: basic colors of the characters. No shading or details are added yet... (My tablet and I were on the same level for this! yay!) More to come...

Audrey R., who’s running for the OTW board, is apparently also currently running for office. As a Republican

so uhhhhhh keep that in mind when you’re voting

you’re saying this like a liberal who has the view of republicans.bad dems good and vote blue no mayter who.

y-yes? i sort of think the website that was founded because every other website was purging queer fanwork would be best served by someone who isn’t a member of the We Love Burning Books and Killing Gay People party. but that’s just the humble opinion of someone with a brain that works

Here's her linked in profile so you can confirm it's the same person.

For a lot of us, we aren't going to get better. It isn't us being "negative" to say we aren't getting better. It's us being realistic about our situation and usually accepting it (something that took us a long time to do).

At some point, we've realized this is our life now and we've likely gone through grief for that. We might even still grieve sometimes. But the only way some of us can function is by accepting we won't get better and learning how to adapt to our reality.

A lot of abled people need to realize this, and telling us to have "hope" isn't helpful like you intend. For a lot of abled people, it is also uncomfortable for them because they want to feel better about our situations and honestly, it isn't our job to try and make them feel better about our own struggles.
