Because of all the love on this post, I’ll share what I was working on ~
I was aiming to print a book of my shorter mafia au’s (printed just for me) and got this far on the cover. The hair on the left is too spidery for me but the hair on the right is also too minimal lol I was also so indecisive between the organic brush strokes on the left and the cleanliness of the vector lines on the right.
*sigh*
I don’t think I’ll ever actually print it but I’m happy with how it turned out this far.
you know what is so annoying, it happens so often that i don't see your posts in my feed, even though i follow you, very often i only see your posts either in tags i follow or when i go directly to your site. happened just now with the jemsen gifs from last night. they do not show up in my feed only in the jensen ackles tag.
that is so annoying! yesterday i thought there was nobody online but then i went to someone’s blog and they had posted like 5 times?! and it happens all the time? idk what is up with that.
for a while there i was sympathetic to tumblr because of how much they’re in debt; i was kind of like “well of course they’re absolutely desperate for new users, they literally need the money or else tumblr goes down forever”. and then suddenly today it hit me that there’s actually no fucking reason for that debt to be causing these ui changes? the userbase has been INCREDIBLY clear about what they want from tumblr over the years, not to mention clear about the fact that even twitter people don’t need this place to look like twitter. it actually would be very… EASY? for them to just make changes in a direction people would actually be HAPPY with?
for fuck’s sake there were people trying to organize a “crab day” for tumblr despite tumblr doing nothing but telling us to go fuck ourselves for months on end. there were people spending hundreds of dollars on check marks just for the glee of MAKING FUN of twitter. can you IMAGINE how much money this userbase would donate to tumblr if they actually made ui updates geared toward what people have been asking for?
if tumblr actually crowdsourced ideas or even just LISTENED to their userbase it may have been possible for them to make way more money than they’re begging for now, they just insist on trying to drive their actual demographic and loyal userbase out for literally no reason
lately i've been drinking orange juice and eating fruit and going outside in the sun and coincidentally 10-20% of my depression has vanished. must be witchcraft
you ever think abt what if you gave a girl your whole life but she didnt even want it? you gave her your life to protect her and she threw you away?? what if even after that you still took care of her the best you could???? and then when you next see her shes not even her???? because you gave her your whole life to save her but you couldnt protect her?????? wouldnt that fuck you up?????? wouldnt that be so painful????????? you ever think about that?????
