Hi, I'm Lin đ ⨳ 18+ ⨳ I reblog. A LOT. ⨳ Currently obsessed with The Hobbit ⨳ Especially the Line of Durin ⨳ Especially-specially Fili ⨳ WARNING there's lots of Durincest here
I wish age gap discourse hadn't spiraled the way it has because I want there to be a safe space to say "Men in their 40s who date 25 year olds aren't predators, they're just fucking losers"
It blows my mind that by giving the mithril shirt to Bilbo, Thorin indirectly saved Frodo and thus prevented the Ring-bearer from dying and the Quest from failing. The world was ultimately saved because the exiled King Under the Mountain fell in love with a hobbit.
I got whacked! Whatever! I've never done anything wrong, ever lol. They're oppressing the masses! Gotta start over. <3
@mixberkaan @pinkatron @lindariellanthir @mulasawala @do-androids-dream-ao3acc @i-am-pinkie ugh why can't I remember more @distinguisheddwarffriend @snailqueen42 I'll keep trying to rack my brain. <3
Yes I went with another ridiculous blog name. What did you expect.
It was pretty surreal. I noticed there was very little porn besides my own flying around this morning. Then, all of the sudden, I'm booted off the site. It took several seconds for it to click, lol.
It shows that I have made MAJOR progress in the last two years. When I accidentally drunk-deleted my 12 year old blog 2 years ago, I lost my ever-loving mind.
Now it's all gonna be okay. And Freaky Fridays WILL persist, but not with porn gifs. It really was fun while it lasted, and a sneaky little joy to be a purveyor of the porny arts. The biggest loss? I backed up my blog a couple months ago, so all my work on the prompt list is caput. Boooooo.
I often see posts about curating your own online experience that make the point, âcontent creators arenât your parents.â And, yes, that is absolutely true! And I try not to be like âas a parent,â but as a parentâŚ
EVEN PARENTS ARE SUPPOSED TO ENCOURAGE RESPONSIBLE READING/VIEWING BEHAVIOR. NOT filter everything ahead of time for their kid.
When my kiddo was 5, his pediatrician was asking him the usual Well Child Visit questions (âWhat are your favorite foods? What do you do to get your body moving? Do you know what to do if you get lost in a public place?â Etc.) and she asked, âWhat do you do if you see something on TV that scares or upsets you?â
I piped up like, âOh, he doesnât watch TV without one of us in the room,â which was true at the time and is still largely true now. She said, âYes, but that wonât always be the case, so make sure youâre talking to him about what to do if he sees something that upsets him.â
So we started talking to him about that, and the answer is simple: âTurn it off or leave the room, and talk to someone you trust about what you saw and what youâre feeling.â
The answer is NOT âAsk your parents to make sure you never see anything upsetting again,â because thatâs just not possible â and ultimately that would be doing the kid a disservice, since sooner or later heâs going to be out in the world where we canât control what he watches or reads. That doesnât mean we donât try to make sure heâs watching/reading age-appropriate stuff, it just means thatâs not the only safeguard he has â and thatâs a good thing.
So yes, content creators arenât your parents and arenât responsible for making sure you never see anything you donât like â but also, your own parents should have taught you what to do when that happens. So if they didnât, take it from me, your internet mom:
Turn it off.
Walk away.
Talk to someone you trust about how youâre feeling.
And leave the person who created the thing that upset you alone.
hey artists just in case you feel despair at the rise of ai art please remember that the talking points of pro-ai people are as genuinely âai art bad? but what if there was a PUCK girl who had Steampunk Tube Arm Prosthetic No Hand Syndrome that couldnât draw because of no hands and you poured a biiiig vat of pencils in front of her really big and made her look at it sadddd style and she canât just Pick Up Pencil and draw because No Hand ? what if that happened? then ai art⌠gooodđđ?â
I recently bought an art book on Caspar David Friedrich, whose emotional work stuck with me since I first saw it in a museum years ago. Over the course of a few weeks, I read about his life and at the same time did studies/interpretations of many pieces. It was a really enjoyable and fulfilling project; here's a good lot of them together :)
I was happy to see many people enjoyed Friedrich's work+my interpretations while posting them individually. It took way too long, but I FINALLY set up a print shop for some of these + some other pieces for those who expressed interest. Thank you so much!
