bumbleby is sooooo good. it starts as your usual sunshine/emo duo but grows into so much more. turns out they actually get along flawlessly. turns out yang has abandonment issues and blake always runs away. turns out blake’s ex is the opposite side of the same coin as yang, and blake chooses her anyway, then is proven time and time again how she could never be adam. turns out both their worst fears happen; blake’s newfound world crumbles in her hands, yang is left behind, and they still find their way back to each other. turns out yang needed blake and blake thought she didn’t deserve yang. turns out they’re reincarnations of an ancient love that ended in tragedy, but theirs didn’t. turns out their eyes are the color of the other’s soul. turns out they defeat the monster who almost ruined them not through martyrdom, but by protecting each other. turns out after everything they’ve been through, the hardest thing to do is professing their love out loud. turns out the confident, intimidating yang xiao long is terrified to say it. turns out the once reclusive, self-loathing blake belladonna is absolutely sure and eager to say it. turns out all they’ve ever wanted was to be together.

Can't stop thinking about how Yang definitely thought her and Blake were just going to exchange silly little compliments back and forth until they reached the platform. "You have a good brain", "I think your cat ears are cute", Blake would probably say "I think you're funny!" or "I like your hair". But then Blake completely bulldozes through her expectations with "I think you're an extraordinary person", creating that space for them, and Yang suddenly realizes oh shit we are doing this

Had to draw the actual moment too :)

okay but

when Yang is showing off (noticeably FOR BLAKE), that's not when we get the blush

blake claps for her and smiles at stares at her being badass and cocky

but she only blushes when Yang is focusing solely on her and being dorky and cute

like yeah yang is hot, but Blake "ninjas of love fan" Belladonna is a romantic at heart! of course she's down bad for the cute dorky girl who is so supportive and caring!!!!

Tumblr yall get to see this first(second) server gets first xx

Jaune: To all my haters…

Ruby: Yeah tell ‘em.

Jaune: You win. I’m a failure. Good game.

Ruby: No!

if bumbleby can be cannon so can whiterose (me when i’m delusional)

how do i explain to people that the reason my weekend went so great was because i waited ten years for my favorite ship, belle and goldilocks, to profess their love for each other and kiss in a trippy alice in wonderland-esque afterlife (but they’re not dead so it’s not superhell, don’t worry). but the afterlife place is lowkey sentient and a huge ally so it forced them to confess because they were taking too fucking long?? and then their kiss was so potently gay that it chased the clouds away and made the flowers bloom???

Modern fandom went awry when people stopped learning how to avoid content that upsets them and instead starting actively seeking it out.

I mean this in the kindest, most loving way possible, but babes you'll be so much happy when you stop focusing on what other people are doing and instead focus on what you like.

You'll never be able to stop people from liking what you hate, and the best way you'll find any peace of mind is properly utilizing blocking, blacklisting, and muting tools. Take it from someone who used to run a shipping discourse blog, fandom is supposed to be what you enjoy, stop focusing on things that upset you.

Check out my ongoing comic Crow Time. It has crows, and also neat pantheons of epic beasties.

Okay so I've been binge playing rimworld since the new dlc and it is such a fantastic game and doesn't nearly get the amount of love it deserves so I am going to honestly just infodump on you all about how much I absolutely adore this game.

I feel like so often the games cultural relevance is reduced down to haha warm crimes simulator and while it can be fun to play morally corrupt colonies, the game is so much more than that.

Every single person in the game l, whether one of your colonists or just someone passing through, comes with a backstory describing their childhood and (if old enough) their adult occupation. You get to know what they're passionate about, be it art and crafting or medicine and take care of animals. With the ideology DLC, people are given even more in depth beliefs and values. One person can be vegan and dislikes killing animals while another is a transhumanist and thinks it's hunanitys destiny to rise above our flesh.

And these traits and values all affect the colonists social dynamics. Colonist Joe doesn't like Owl because she recently killed a cow ans he's vegan. Or Frank bonded with Suzy after they spend a lot of time chatting since they both work in the kitchen and now they're dating.

Like the game really makes these characters pop to life, they're all unique and quite literally have emotions, they'll tell you when they'll upset and an entire list of what is weighing on them currently, be it from their favourite pet died to their bedroom being messy.

And that's not even touching on the mod community! The graphics of rimworld are fairly simple making modding it so accessible for modders adding in items. And so there's such an absolutely amazing mod scene for rimworld. There are mods for anything and everything in rimworld, today my boyfriend sent me one I hadn't seen that added in possums as an animal to the game just because the modder likes possums, or there are more complex mods like one that adds in thirst and hygiene mechanics for the pawns with a complete plumbing system to support that. The modding community for rimworld is honestly one of the biggest and most dedicated I know.

All this to say is just I absolutely love rimworld and think it is criminally undervalued when marketed merely as a warcrimes simulator.

Or to put it in Tumblr friendly terms, my colonists are my blorbos and rimworld is me putting them in the blender to see how they twirl.

every time i eat one of these fucking things my soul goes away and i become a mafia boss smoking a fat fucking cigar pondering the next sap on my hit list

changing elves from being assholes with a superiority complex and recharacterising them as just sort of weird guys that have an entirely different set of social behaviours to harken back to the days when people thought autistic people were a kind of fae for having odd behaviours. the entire reason why they dont particularly enjoy gatherings of men or dwarves or whatever is because they tend to be loud and the average elven social gathering is just a bunch of them sitting in a room in silence ignoring each other

like theyre still kind of mean but its more of them being blunt and lacking empathy rather than being condescending or purposefully malicious

my elven ass after spending 45 minutes in the pub with my dwarf friends:

I GROW WEARY OF MIMICKING YOUR OBNOXIOUS MANNERISMS TO ACCOMMODATE FOR THIS ENVIRONMENT. I WISH TO RETURN TO MY CHAMBERS TO REST AND SO I MAY PLAY SPLATOON 3 ON THE NINTENDO SWITCH. WE SHALL GATHER AGAIN NEXT HALF MOON AND I SHALL TELL YOU OF MY VICTORIES.

them:

okay man take care

you understand my vision

I never technically left so I'm not technically returning. (⁠人⁠ ⁠•͈⁠ᴗ⁠•͈⁠)

Regardless, excuse a bit of a backlog of illustrations I'm going to post here. I'll make up for the old content with some progress work sprinkled in.

For now, have the kind of thing you're used to seeing from me - Warhammer shit posting. In this case the very real and very canon Felinid.

Once again, Tumblr manages to succeed via just being honest with their users.

I made a post back around April fool's about the crabs being so popular because the joke was that every other website tries to trick you into clicking things so they can make money from your clicks and what if instead a website just asked "please click this revenue generating crab. It is there to generate revenue. In return you will have clicked on a crab. Nothing more." And the answer to that question was "people will frantically click on that crab. They don't hate the idea of the website getting money, they hate the idea of being profited on against their will".

So Tumblr implemented actual revenue crabs. "For this much money you can fill your or someone else's dash with virtual crabs. This will have the effect of there being crabs on their screen."

And people will buy those crabs. Because yes you're spending money on something stupid and useless but it's being sold to you as "hey you want something stupid and useless?", which is a nice change of pace from every other site trying to make itself out to be something more than what it is.

Twitter is floundering with the checkmark system because it's being sold as "confirm that you are someone important and who you say you are is true", which it isn't at all right now because anyone can buy one. You're buying a useless checkmark that only says that YOU think you're important. Or, more often than not right now, you are intending to trick other people into thinking you're someone you're not.

Meanwhile, Tumblr just said "Consider this double check mark. It does nothing. You will be marking yourself as someone who paid money for a meaningless checkmark and sometimes it will randomly turn into a bunch of crabs, making the site harder to use". And the userbase is like "Well sure, that sounds delightful."

The point is, despite what all the marketing and advertising people have tried to say, painting trash gold and trying to pass it off as something better is almost never as effective as just saying "hey you want this trash?"

Why yes, in fact, I do.
