Hello friends, Newsies friends in particular. I'm currently ill and feeling very emotional and I just wanted to say thanks to all the cool people I've made friends with/spoken to this year.

I've never been in such a lovely, welcoming community and it's been so wonderful to get to be involved and talk to you guys.

I know I sort of disappeared, but I've been struggling with a lot of my things in life over the last few months and my energy has been at an all time low. I hope the new year brings some respite and I can be a bit more present bc I miss my blorbos and I miss the community sm.

I'm also very open to people shouting at me through asks and DMs (though an ask first helps, I get a little anxious about DMs from new ppl)

Hopefully I'll have more energy so I can yell with you guys again soon :))

- Jasper

I've decided to make a cozy gallery wall. Like cottages in the summer, families picnicking under shady trees, meadows and Beatrix Potter cozy. Please! If a piece of art just popped into your mind when you read that, send the link my way!!

#cheers. -crazy in central park #home decor #interior decorating #interior design #just had an attack of the morbs thinking about how long it's been since I saw a starry sky #Normally my vibe is gothy and sad but I've been far too woe is me suffering is my natural state clinging to the warm bosom of Death lately. #probably will put up some fanart as well #my favorite kind of fanart prints are the kind that don't look like fanart to outsiders

[dollsahoy]

oh oh oh--making fun of Morbius has finally reached The Child's social group

which means Tumblr has provided me with so much Dad Joke fodder for it already, thank you

#the things i've said are so throwaway i can't even remember them #but i do remember the child's reactions #which have been a mix of being mortified at how bad the jokes are and also ready to keep making more jokes #morbtified and ready for morb

[g0reoz]

a weighted blanket isn't enough. i need someone to hug me so hard i feel like my RIBS are gonna collapse

#idek what it is i've been feelin so. not even sad. just vaguely melancholy lately #my homies i've got the morbs 😓 #.woof. #ok to rb

[autistickaitovocaloid]

trick or treat. (dressed like tbh creature)

Ough. I love it.

Here, you can have this :]

#arts asks #inbox trick or treating #i'm so fucking sorry for morbing you i've just been waiting forever to respond to an ask with this #you're very welcome to come back and i'll give you an actual treat or something

[bangerbug]

The hell is up with people with Jared leto and something called morbius???? What's that even??? I want morbs. Give me my Victorian slang back you motherfuckers stop confusing me.

#babbling like a broken radio #chaotic bastard #no because what on earth is morbius #I go to the tags search thing looking for Victorian slang of morbs in hopes to find more funky words #but BAM #It's Jared leto and some crap on some movie or something called morbius and I've never been more confused

3299 DAYS TILL MY NEXT BRTIDHAY

i couldnt even JUNGLE to this!! I explored immediatly! wood tree isle MY FOREST!!!🤣🤣🤣

#. My dad hears me and calls me a faggot. I knew he was just jealous for my devotion of Morbius. I called him a cunt. He sl #“It’s morbin time #I was only nine years old. I loved Morbius so much #I had all the merchandise and movies. I'd pray to Morbius every night before I go to bed #thanking for the life I've been given. “Morbius is love” #I would say #“Morbius is life. He grabs me with his powerful morby hands #and puts me on my hands and knees. I spread my ass-cheeks for Morbius. He penetrates my butthole. It hurts so much #but I do it for Morbius. I can feel my butt tearing as my eyes start to water. I push against his force. I want to please Morbius. He roars #as he fills my butt with his love. My dad walks in. Morbius looks him straight in the eye #and says #“Get morbed”. Morbius leaves through my window. Morbius is love. Morbius is life.

[astrellium]

Very conscious of the fact that reverting to my mostly-nocturnal schedule in the dead of winter is probably Not Great for my mental health, and waking up at 1 pm only to go back to bed at 6:30 pm Definitely isn't

But then again, why not? Why shouldn't I be cozy?

#I've been trying to keep like a normal human schedule so I don't get the morbs again but it just isn't working so whatever #humans and me especially were meant to hibernate I'm sure of it #And my depression can just suck it #All I want right now is to be warm in a dark room

[zordonmlw7]

I really need to get in the habit of talking to myself more.

#thinking about how scary it is sometimes when I'm feeling the morbs #and I realize it's been like a day since I've heard my own voice #sometimes I feel like if I keep it up I'll just go poof #and I'm not vibing with life rn but we're a long way from seeing that as good! #shut up zordon

I'm seething right now. My egg has been cracked by these stupid morbius memes of all things. Yes it sounds ridiculous but it's true. I was scrolling my dash before bed and it was full of morbius sweep and shit, which must've caused me to have a dream about vampires. I was a vampire man, and I loved it. I woke up and kept thinking about how right it felt. Now don't get me wrong, this isn't the first time I've had a dream like this but I haven't for a while. Also other general signs. But these stupid memes morbing on a stupid movie caused me to really think about it more. Why did it have to be morbius. Sorry for using your inbox like a confessional. I got morbed.

You, injecting testosterone: "it's morbin time"

I finally got my hands on something I've been looking for (for a reasonable price) since I was just a lowly little level 12 hornball - A "Marvel Swimsuit Special!"

This is the second issue in the series (though the third book of its kind), and it was released in 1993 when... times were different.

The coolest thing about them (other than the totally radical '90s hunkeroos and baberinos in general) is the amount of really talented artists that submitted pieces - So many industry-leading folks putting their spin on the self-aware, low-brow, tongue-in-cheek project.

This first image was by Joe Jusko, a super popular cover artist at the time. I remember his Conan covers the most.

I'll eventually scan the whole thing in high quality, but for now, I'll take some preview pics to show you some of my favorite and/or goofiest pages:

Here is Domino, looking like we might need to race her to a Dermatology appointment. She's apparently tacky enough to wear a swimsuit with a domino print on it.

And check out Cable in the back - Sun's out, cyberbun out! He's ready to catch some waves on a totally-worth-the-money-and-production-time rocket-powered machine gun surfboard.

I really appreciate this artist's commitment to all the "Liefeld pouches" here. I hope they're waterproof, or all those Tic Tacs inside 'em are gonna get ruined. :(

Penciling by Chris Batista, ink by Hector Collazo, coloring by Mark McNaab.

Let's kick off the "after the jump" part properly with this glorious image of Pip. Because this is certainly what people bought this book for.

It just so happens that this fuzzy little asshole narrates the entire issue, so he's to blame for the inherently sexist captions on all the pictures.

Jesus Christ, he's got two big toes on each foot.

Pencilking by Darick Robertson, ink by Andrew Pepoy, coloring by Tom Smith.

I love me some Cloak and Dagger.

Tandy looks as gorgeous as ever. Surely she owns stock in boobie tape by now.

Tyrone, however, is getting so much sand stuck to him right now... I don't think he digs being used as a beach blanket. I'm... not even sure he's ever had to wash his cloak before today! Yikes. He's all like:

Penciling by Joe Madureira, ink by Terry Austin, and coloring by Gregory Wright.

I can't stop laughing at how much Thunderstrike looks exactly like the Genetic Freak, Big Poppa Pump Scott Steiner in this picture:

The work is entirely by Lou Harrison. It may not surprise you to learn he's also a Fantasy artist.

I've always had a thing for Silver Sable, and this page is just fantastic.

That being said, my favorite part is Sandman sitting there, looking like a dope, shaped like a sand castle. Which, while it seems silly, was probably the most challenging and detailed thing I've ever seen him do with his powers. Worth it for the shot, I suppose!

Line work and ink by Steven Butler, a favorite of mine. He did penciling for the "Silver Sable and the Wild Pack" series (which got me attached), but he's also known for designing the Scarlet Spider suit. Coloring by Gregory Wright.

If you thought I wasn't going to Morb out on this post, you were undead wrong.

Just look at that ridiculous batpackage. Also... Is he really serving a cape over a leather jacket, but with absolutely no pants? Damn, dude.

Penciling by Gary Barker, ink by Jimmy Palmiotti, coloring by Tom Smith.

I can spot Adam Hughes' work a mile away, wow. I guess I didn't realize he was doing work for Marvel this far back.

A fierce-as-ever, short-haired Natasha who looks like she got slammed so hard against a rocky wall that it cracked, got up, emptied out the rest of her clip, and still had enough time and energy to pose during a reload.

Black Widow, bay-bayyy. ♫

Oh my god, Ghost Rider is just so naughty. Wearing nothing but his birthday bones.

This scene just looks like it smells awful.

Artwork by Tristan Shane.

Shulkie in a metal bikini (function over fashion?), bursting out of the lava from an active volcano. You wanna talk "hot tub?" Sure, this gets a feature.

Penciling and ink by cover artist Steve Geiger, coloring by Paul... Mounts.

Deezamn, Bishop. Never seen guy looking so buff before.

Instead of just Bishop, this looks like Hank McCoy and Bishop had a child together. Does he have any other mode than "arm vein p-pop?"

Penciling by Dwayne Turner, ink by Mark Farmer, coloring by Gregory Wright.

Ah, one of the more famous '90s Psylocke images that wasn't done by Jim Lee.

This centerfold was used in lots of comic store ads for several years after this issue came out. I remember seeing posters in the shops themselves. Trading cards of this picture are one of the most costly to collect.

It's beautiful, and the colors/lighting/shading are all fantastic.

Penciling and ink by the wonderful Art Thibert, creator of the Raft max security prison and inker of some of the most iconic X-title covers.

Coloring by Paul Mounts, who did the coloring in hundreds and hundreds of just Marvel comics alone - I didn't mention that earlier because I was snickering at his name earlier in the She-Hulk feature. My bad.

Well, this wouldn't be Tumblr without a cat picture, yeah? Or a catgirl picture, I suppose.

This is the most adorable scene in the book. Just Tigra innocently taking a cuddle nap with some... um... wow, I don't know what the fuck those things are. Snuggle up anyway!

Penciling and ink by Amanda Conner, coloring by Gregory Wright.

Huh. Of all the characters in this book, I really didn't expect to see Dr. Cooper... Either which way, the swimsuit under the detective get-up is pretty choice, honestly.

This is, of course, another Adam Hughes line art joint. Ink by Mark Farmer, coloring by Gregory Wright (who did a lot of these, huh?).

What's this? A parody ad that you'd more expect to see in an issue of "What The--?!" that only '80s kids will understand? Yup, totally.

This was in the back of the book and doesn't fit the theme at all, but it gets a mention because of the weird inclusion and also to stall time until I had the final image ready, because I needed time to prepare...

THIS.

This is the one.

How could I not end this little "show and tell" without this beauty right here?

Here, we have remorseless killer Frank Castle flexing his best end-of-catwalk pose in front of a... wrestling match between a bunch of lady demon dinosaurs battling... for his affection? To tip him American cash? Or maybe all those hearts come from their love of beating each other up? I'm not here to judge.

And then there's a sign for 75 cent hotdogs, but it's been covered with another sign for... $20 tooth brushes? What in the shit is going on here?

There is one thing I do know, though. The artist wants you to think that The Punisher has at least $2.75 worth of hotdog under that massive crotch skull.

Just blacklisted a couple fandoms, just cause I wasn't interested, and got to thinking about how much I genuinely unironically fucking love this website. I've never been on any other platform that gives me this degree of control over what I see - by letting me control who I follow, giving me block abilities, letting me make a list of tags that don't interest me, and more. Yes, some changes that have been made didn't suit me, but I'm sure they suited some percentage of the user base or prospective user base, or else they wouldn't have been made. Even the new dash only took a few days to get used to, and to me the change is a net neutral. Yeah, the tumblr live icon at the bottom is irritating, and I wish the NEW would go away, but I appreciate the snooze for 30 days and again, a layout change can be gotten used to pretty quick.

And then I got to thinking about how many people here seem to virulently hate this website, and it honestly makes me sad. Every time a change is made, some number of folks go off the deep end, screaming how much they hate it, abusing staff, saying they'll leave, harassing other users who say they like it or don't mind it. It's gotten to the point that I'm genuinely afraid to make a post about liking Tumblr, like it's A Cool Kid (tm) marker to ~hate it~ and some bizarre form of virtue signaling to complain about it as loudly as possible every time there's a change. Then there's the HOW DARE THEY ASK FOR MONEY as if websites...don't need money to run...and again abuse piled on other users "don't you have better ways to spend your money shouldn't you support charity blah blah blah" and like. Look. This is a service I use and appreciate. Services need money to exist because capitalism. And I hate capitalism as much as it's possible to hate anything but I'm stuck living with it, so yes, I will vote for something I enjoy using and want to continue using with my dollars, while also trying to support other causes I believe in, and getting myself some cute things and sugary desserts to stave off the morbs, and buying my kids the things they want, and, and, and.

And then the newest thing unrolls, and a quarter of the userbase flips out THIS WEBSITE IS THE WORST I'LL NEVER GIVE IT MONEY STAFF GO DIAF IF THIS ISNT UNDONE IM LEAVING FOR REAL

And buddy. If you're saying that.

Real talk.

Why the FUCK would they want you to stay? What possible reason have you given them to accommodate you? Your data takes up server space, you refuse to chip in a penny to support the service, you're threatening their employees... if this was a fucking Denny's they'd have called the fucking cops on you, "yeah I agree that ACAB but you threatened the maitre d with a butter knife and refused to pay for your meal after eating and told the waiter to 'kys' so you didn't leave us much choice..."

Basically.

I love Tumblr.

But ngl, sometimes I hate the people here.

(Not as much as I hate capitalism and cops, but y'know.)
