Good evening all! What you see above are thumbnails for my upcoming Uglydolls comic! It's called "Lou's Doll Ecology Lesson!"

It's 15 pages long, and unlike my "Before Story" project, I do intend to complete this in a timely manner 😆 I'm hoping to finish in 3-4 weeks since the amount of detail isn't to the extent of my other comics.

To try and maintain that deadline this will be the only thing I'll work on, so no new posts for a while. I know it'll be worth it for my sake because it's what I think about when interpreting the characters' actions, and the script has been hanging out in my drafts for almost a year. But I hope you all like it too! See you in the future 🌟

so for anyone who doesn't know, the last few days of the global strike (jan 26-28) are where people are supposed to amp up posting about palestine on their social media. if you can afford it, please use the remainder of the strike days to mostly engage w content spreading awareness about palestinian genocide. some people might find this a tall order, but it really isn't. it's just three more days, and the content you typically consume isn't going anywhere. and if you're keen on not giving a fuck about palestinian genocide, do everyone a favor and don't engage by leaving "how can i filter political things like this?" comments on posts about palestine. the people who're concerned w advocating for palestine have other things to worry about than disturbing your internet bubble. save yourself the trouble of typing that up. i assure you nobody cares.

#and on that note--as far as this blog is concerned i'm exclusively engaging w palestine awareness media until jan 28 #palestine #gaza #israel

why can’t gay people just be normal and say I love you, why’s there always gotta be some great dragon in the middle saying shit like “a half cannot truly hate that which makes it whole” and “you’re like two sides of the same coin”

#smh… gay people #if I had a dollar for every time THIS happened #bbc merlin #merlin #arthur pendragon #merthur #bug live blogs #edit: since people are rbing this as an aside by gay i mean queer not just exclusively mlm. just so we’re on the same page.

Me, sprinting around my flat with a handful of treats to hide in weird places to enrich my indoor cat: The things I do for this strange creature…

My cat, sprinting after me: The things I do for this strange creature…

#cecil blogs her life #cats of tumblr #Mim the cat #I chop up a few small treats and then hide them in blankets and on high surfaces so she has to dig and climb for them #and every time she looks at me as if to say….this AGAIN??? #but she also has a brain the size of a walnut that exclusively produces elevator music and can’t figure out how to get onto the kitchen #counter where I keep her treats so climb and dig she must

After the scene with Dakota they put they number on MC's arm. When MC talks to Seven, don't they see the number there? If so, aren't they curious?

That’s in the rewrite 🫶

It's always weird when (some) people talk about the choice of the half-Elven as if they evolve like Pokémon upon choosing their ultimate fates.

Elros didn't become exclusively human. He chose to retain the gift of Men and to be counted among Men as far as that ultimate fate went, but he remained a half-Elf. He didn't gain a beard (even descendants as remote as Aragorn, Boromir, and Faramir can't because of Elros) or most Mannish qualities he didn't already possess and he lived half a millennium.

Elrond chose to be counted among Elves in terms of immortality, but he isn't exclusively an Elf. He's described as both Elf and Man, and as the eldest of Aragorn's people. Elrond's marriage to a full Elf produces peredhel children. Two of them are given names signifying Elf+(human)Man, names which Tolkien translated as "Elf-knight" (in Númenórean Sindarin) and "Elf-Númenórean." Elrond's sons are always distinguished from Elves in LOTR.

Arwen doesn't morph into a human woman when she swears her vows with Aragorn; she still looks like f!Elrond and ageless years afterwards, and she would be very long-lived even if you only counted her married life. She is probably the most emphatically Elvish of any peredhel, but she's still a peredhel. Elwing and Eärendil are, too. Peredhil are peredhil are peredhil.

The betrayal of red and green alliance is something that is really interesting to me

Like, Green managed to make an alliance with Red (the crazy cult-family team that dies more than anyone and barks at their enemies or even just because they felt like it) because neither of them want Blue (or more specifically Bad) to win because of their bloodthirstiness from the first days.

And it's kinda sad from Red's perspective.

Blue spawn camped them several times on days 1 and 4 so they will kill any member of Blue if given the chance but Green has been kind to them in comparison.

Red lowered their walls around Green members, around ElQuackity who is always trying to win no matter what but is not a genuine threat if you're decent at pvp and is easy to befriend, around Etoiles who will do what he has to do to win but fights with honor and accepts defeat with a "good fight", around Roier who could easily kill them but prefers to banter and have a good time.

Sure, the first few days were a blood bath, but when Jaiden kept getting killed upon respawning on day 4, Roier and Etoiles both went to check in on her. Upon getting there they probably expected her to be frustrated by dying so much but instead found her vibing and actively trying to litter her spawn with her corpses because she thought it would make it more intimidating.

Then Charlie showed up and Roier couldn't talk because he was sick but they started play fighting and Etoiles and Roier gave Jaiden and Charlie pvp training and then Cellbit got there and there was also an admin cat and Red died a lot that day but they had fun and they formed a tentative alliance with Green by trying their hardest to help Green get the win, they lost by a landslide and Blue ended up winning but they had fun.

Then on day 5 Green got their first win of the week and Red wasn't even that salty, Green deserved a win after all, but they would actually try to win on day 6, it's a competition after all and they can't make it too easy for Blue to catch up to them.

Red would rather Green win than Blue, but if Blue was last on the scoreboard or had few members active that day, Red would give it their all to win.

Red hadn't been there since the server opened unlike Blue, most of Red starts late, but they grind like crazy to make sure everyone has enough items to complete their tasks, Red shares everything after all, it's what makes them end up in first and second place when they're actually trying. They are constantly coordinating, constantly talking to each other, they are a family and no one is left behind if they can help it. Honesty and trust are very important to them.

The Red team is made up almost entirely out of roleplayers, but no one can deny that they're all hard workers, so they spend the day grinding the materials they need for the personal quests and the egg tasks and spend a good amount of their day trying and failing to do the hardest task of the day, kill Pac twice. They try and fail and try and fail and they give up to concentrate on fortifying their egg base, they're on first place after all, and Green somehow hasn't caught up to them despite having more team members active that day.

The sky turns red, almost like a sign that they already won, it's the last hour after all, they might not have gotten to kill Pac but Green didn't get their kill either so it doesn't matter.

Bad calls them and makes an offer that they don't take, he is their worst enemy after all, a spawn camper with no honor who bows down people who want an honest stick fight from afar. Bad tells them he has made the same offer to Green and that they didn't take it either, Etoiles is an honorable warrior and as much as he wants to win there's no honor in this, Red knows he won't take the deal even if Bad offers again, Green has as much beef with Bad as they do, so they're not worried even as Foolish gets a message that was most likely meant for Forever that implies they're meeting for something.

The same message shows up three times in quick succession, Forever has killed Bad and Green is now on first place. Green has made a deal with the devil.

Really, they should have seen this coming, you can't really trust anyone here. Their friends have betrayed them.

Except they haven't, not really. Two of their team members have gone behind the others backs to make this deal, Etoiles and Roier weren't told of it and they both like to play fair, they are winning and they don't like it, it's not fair to their Red friends who spent the entire day working just as hard as them to win. This is a cheap win, an underhanded tactic that they do not approve of, and they tell Foolish as time is running out. They can only hope their alliance with Red as a team has not been entirely ruined by this and that Foolish can explain to the rest of Red.

Foolish goes back to the Red call and tries to say something, but gets immediately sidetracked and forgets and starts helping with last minute preparations for the war tomorrow.

Red is salty, of course. Their hard work has gone to waste as they haven't won and haven't earned the immunity totem for their egg. They can't trust anyone outside of their team-cult-family.

They shouldn't have lowered their walls in the first place.

Do you have a favourite rain toad? I love them. They're so round and look grumpy even though they aren't.

Did you know that there are arboreal rainfrogs‽

Meet the genus Callulina, from the rainforests of Tanzania and Kenya

Who said you had to be lithe to take to the trees?

You may not like it, but this is what Peak Performance looks like.

#frog #frogs #animal #animals #rainfrog #rain frog #herpetology #this is what peak performance looks like #could these be the roundest arboreal frogs? #I think it is not unlikely #Certainly an interesting evolutionary choice #turns out you can indeed get you a guy who can do both #Callulina #I can Callulina and baby you can call me Al #on this blog we use 'toad' exclusively to refer to members of the family Bufonidae #bufonids are true toads #what really blew my mind just now is that one species of Callulina (C. meteora) #is pretty clearly a mimic of an arboreal toad (Nectophrynoides viviparus) #which is awesome #because N. viviparus is probably pretty toxic #but I do not know if Callulina are toxic #so I am very curious if the mimicry is Müllerian or Batesian

I feel like, regrettably, this website needs a crash course in recognizing a particular brand of post about female martyrdom and suffering that is really, at its core, based on OP's views on a holistic level, a post about hating """men""" in disguise. Female anger is righteous and does come a from a place of personal and historical suffering, and should be expressed. I truly do think that. But I guess Tumblr's userbase sucks because then you go on these blogs and it's post after post about how men are ontologically evil and sex work should be criminalized and women are these broken shattered creatures unilaterally scorned by MALES with no hope for justice. Just the absolute most childish reductive way of analyzing misogyny in our culture that always boils down to racism, prejudice against sex workers, and transphobia

#there's a post that's pretty innocuous on its face going around #about how people love characters until they're women or something #and there is hope in my heart that something that is generally a truthful observation such as this can be made in good faith #with a sufficiently consummate understanding of how sex and gender operate in a patriarchal cis normative society #and then I go on the blog and it's talking about how people should stop bullying terfs #there's also a post about how generalizing about white women means white women should get to generalize about black men #like a fucking course you're also racist #these posts are almost always by white women whose understanding of misogyny is exclusively informed by their own white experiences

Little WIPs below, I'm not fandom-dead!! Just trying to find balance in life and fanart, as one does sometimes.

I'm trying really hard at drawing for my Before Story project (it has a name now!). I know I'm trying too hard to draw in the "movie style" but I want to do it so bad- who else would??

These are the "causations" in the Uglydolls universe, Amanda and Ludovic Ruthford. By those familiar-sounding names, I'm sure you can see where this is going :} I'll probably post more WIPs as I progress but I wanted to check myself in today.

And hey, I'm a spoiler-lover, so if you want me to spill the full details of my project I'll gladly blab to you! XD

Update: If you're reading this, then you know I've done away with my initiative to finish my Before Story project before posting regularly again. Turns out there's a LOT more that I want to show in the best way I can. What you see below is NOT my best, so back to drafting ideas... you know... while living life and fluctuating between interests on what to draw. Heh...

what is force-shipping? (a PSA!)

what force-shipping IS:

guilting a partner into agreeing to a ship after initially declining the offer.

sending romantic or otherwise inappropriate (inappropriate because THEY SAID NO TO THE SHIP) memes despite them saying no.

writing a romantic or shippy starter/reply to a thread after they said no to the ship.

(listen this list will not end, let me finish this up with a very firm final remark:)

NOT RESPECTING YOUR PARTNER SAYING NO TO YOUR SHIP REQUEST.

what force-shipping is NOT:

asking your writing partners if they'd like to plot a romantic ship with you.

listen. forcing a ship is a conscious effort. if you're not able to respect your writing partners' decisions and choices when it comes to literal role play, then you need to step back and re-evaluate until you're able to do so.

BUT. you are NEVER forcing a ship simply by asking someone if they'd be interesting in shipping with you. it might be scary to ask. but once you respect their rules and boundaries, you're fine! there's never any harm in asking! just make sure you respect and honour their response, regardless of whether they say "yes", "no", or "maybe once we test their chemistry".

#psa. #ooc. #( naturally if your muse is gay or ace/aro or demi ) #( there will be limitations ) #( same applies for exclusively shipped blogs ) #( but once you respect the rules and boundaries they display ) #( you're FINE! )
