Sometimes a LGBTQ+ headcanon is super well thought out and has an in depth explanation as to why you headcanon it

and sometimes it's this shenanigan bullshittery

Hi, I hope you are having a nice day and a nicer begining of year (Happy New Year btw). I finally find the time to say: Is that DeiSaku I spot on the horizon? Count me in! DeiSaku has been intriging me and I would be delighted to read a fic about them written by you. To be perfectly honest it comes from DeiSasoSaku which is one of my very few OT3 (even if I have no idea how it would work beside absolute chaos). A bit sad to read about you putting SasoSaku on the side for your immediate future projects but I will look forward to them.

Oh I’m definitely NOT putting aside any SasoSaku in favor of other stuff! That’s still priority one, as it always will be. 😌

I’m just also doing other stuff. Since the Naruto manga ended I’ve only ever done SasoSaku occasionally, and now I’m super motivated to do other stuff too, like ItaIno and a few other fun things I’m keeping on the dl for now.

DeiSaku is coming for sure. And so is SasoSakuDei OT3 content, funny you should mention! 👀

#by which I mean #that OT3 thing is gonna be stupidly shameless smut #because we can #coming soon to an archive near you

“there’s something wrong with me.” -corditeheart

@corditeheart

Zed sighs quietly, grasping Xu's hand as her eyelids finally - slowly - flutter open. She's been in and out of consciousness for days now, not staying awake for very long; this is the first time Zed's heard her try to speak since he'd reached her bedside in the hospital.

Kadowaki had summoned him there immediately after the attempt on Xu's life, and a part of Zed had wanted to hunt down and kill whoever was responsible; however, his heart won over his need for immediate revenge (for now, anyways), and he'd rushed to Xu's bedside, sleeping in a chair clearly uncomfortable for someone of Zed's height and lanky build.

"You'll be fine, babe," Zed murmured, brushing his lips over blooded and bandaged knuckles. "Fine" was certainly a subjective term; the physical damage was extensive. Glass shards and shrapnel had been painfully extricated from Xu by Kadowaki's skilled hand, and curative magic administered.

She would heal physically, Zed reckoned, in due time. He could tell, though, by the way Xu was avoiding eye contact with him - turning her head toward the wall, and shrinking from his touch - that she really was anything but "fine" after all.

Blue eyes slipped open, the world a wash of muted tones and blurry edges. The sky above was an endless grey swirl of dreariness, the rest of the image a blob of dark purple hues. They didn’t stay open long before he squeezed them tight, a rush of pure agony rippling through his being all the way down to his bones.

The hint of something prickled in the back of his mind, a sense of urgency he just couldn’t seem to shake; but for the moment, the only things he could focus on were the horrible pain that spasmed across every last one of his muscles and the aching throb that twisted nails into the base of his skull.

A low groan ripped from his throat, body constricting itself into a fetal-like position as he rolled gingerly onto his side. Was he hit by a truck? It sure as hell felt like it. A big one, going at least 60 MPH.

Wind whistled across the land, kicking up dust particles and tickling the exposed skin of his face.

Hey all, you know how internet searches suck now? When the results are awful, full-of-AI, death-of-the-internet levels of bad?

Start appending date constraints to your searches - "before:2023".

My results have gone from 90% AI bullshit to ~60% usable - which frankly at this point is a huge improvement.

#information death of the internet etc #legit this has been SO SO helpful #shout out to mastodon infosec server for this one #before 2022 we did not really have the AI-content-farms because. the tech did not exist to the public. #and you can knock back the date if need be #obviously this does not FIX the problem but #me.txt

cant tell you how bad it feels to constantly tell other artists to come to tumblr, because its the last good website that isn't fucked up by spoonfeeding algorithms and AI bullshit and isn't based around meaningless likes

just to watch that all fall apart in the last year or so and especially the last two weeks

there's nowhere good to go anymore for artists.

edit - a lot of people are saying the tags are important so actually, you'll look at my tags.

#please dont delete your accounts because of the AI crap. your art deserves more than being lost like that #if you have a good PC please glaze or nightshade it. if you dont or it doesnt work with your style (like mine) please start watermarking #use a plain-ish font. make it your username. if people can't google what your watermark says and find ur account its not a good watermark #it needs to be central in the image - NOT on the canvas edges - and put it in multiple places if you are compelled #please dont stop posting your art because of this shit. we just have to hope regulations will come slamming down on these shitheads#in the next year or two and you want to have accounts to come back to. the world Needs real art #if we all leave that just makes more room for these scam artists to fill in with their soulless recycled garbage #improvise adapt overcome. it sucks but it is what it is for the moment. safeguard yourself as best you can without making #years of art from thousands of artists lost media. the digital world and art is too temporary to hastily click a Delete button out of spite

spock’s room decor is actually fucking bonkers. The weapons??? the big red velvet curtain??? like ok phantom of the opera go crazy.

for reference jim’s room has some photos and a plant so we can surmise this is uniquely a spock being a dramatic weirdo thing

#spock baby im sorry but it looks like the backdrop of one of those alpha male podcasts #nurse chapel is stronger then me because if i saw this frat boy ass decor i would have immediately gotten the ick and left #the lack of coherent design is so funny #ALSO CAN WE TALK ABOUT HOW TO CURTAIN IS COVERING THE SHELVES WHICH IS SUCH A SMALL THING BUT IT MAKES ME SO MAD WHY SPOCK WHY #i hope bones never saw this room because he would have a fucking field day #star trek #star trek tos #spirk #jim kirk #spock #tos

Of the 19 hijackers who carried out the Sept 11 attacks:

15 were from Saudi Arabia (a powerful/oil-rich country the U.S. works hard to maintain diplomatic relations with)

2 were from the United Arab Emirates (also a powerful/oil-rich country the U.S. works hard to maintain diplomatic relations with)

1 was from Egypt, 1 from Lebanon.

None of the hijackers were from Iraq.

None of the Sept 11 hijackers were Iraqi.

None of the 9/11 hijackers were from Iraq.

#9/11 #serious post #not a shitpost #this should be one of the first things kids learn when they learn about the 9/11 attacks #politics #this is just...it's such an essential and brazen fact and i rarely see basic outrage over it #i want outrage. i want fury. i want disgust over the way fundamental facts are disguised and discarded and downplayed #because there are things we should KNOW. basic fact we should ALL KNOW. and they are tucked away in the footnotes. #and no this is NOT to put the blame on other middle eastern countries #we know this was carried out by a specific terrorist organization not a national government #but King George the Second decided (and was encouraged by his cabinet!) to invade a nation! #a nation that was not at all related or responsible!!! #a dictatorship to be sure--but a dictatorship that King George the First had been happy to support #so what changed? why did we go in guns blazing to DEMOLISH a country *we had NO PLANS OF REPAIRING*??? #well. because they wanted a villain didn't they. a nice clean war. clarity of purpose. us the heroes against them the villains #and when you're in that mindframe--truth is irrelevant. you can pick your villain (your victim) by rolling a roulette wheel #truth is irrelevant #worse: to the people in charge #truth is a HINDRANCE #'Alternative facts' existed long before it became a catchphrase #facts don't matter. truth doesn't matter. the impulses of a handful of volatile & rich & power-high people--that's History. congratulations

I'll be participating in a charity livestream with other storyboard artists to raise money for careforgaza and e-sims! @tulliok and I will be live on the 4th, 5PM PST (8PM EST). Check the list above; artists such as @kianamaiart and @mak-to-the-future will be participating as well on either the 3rd or 4th.

Now's your chance to make me sketch a 1920s AU design of an MLP character I would have otherwise never designed!

Like this guy.

I love reading people's tags. They amuse me, the most interesting things are being written there. Second opinions, additional thoughts, rants, deepest confessions etc. Like your post is your church, and the tags are your booth.

Discrete, and yet indiscrete..because you're secretly hoping it'll get noticed and make you famous.

#it's the truth and you can't deny it #i'm using tags the same way #only on tumblr #because we can #i rest my case
