#just scroll if it's not your thing

[sergle]

I'm thinking abt that pretty fall leaves embroidery pattern post and about how like... it is categorically a repost, it's a reupload. right? a thing that is generally disliked. but because it's credited, it's genuinely boosting the artist in question. and it could ALWAYS be like this. reposting content could ALWAYS be a symbiotic relationship, but because sourcing back to the original creator of something is so uncommon, it's just easier to ask people not to repost it at all. and people still don't understand the difference. or they'll go to the effort of cropping out usernames/signatures to repost something, which is More Effort than literally crediting the creator of something you liked enough to want to repost. Like. I literally don't actually care if my own shit gets reposted, you have to understand. I just don't want it STOLEN. But "do not repost" is easier to write on my art than "you can repost this, but don't alter the image/remove my signature, don't you dare write 'credit goes to the artist' because that is not credit, please link back to my original post or someplace that you can actually find me. please use an actual link/url instead of writing a non-clickable link of my username, because making it text instead of a clickable link cuts the number of people who will go to the effort of visiting my own page in Half." All those aggregate themed accounts, those fuckin annoying as hell instagrams and facebook groups that are like "body positive art we love wamen 💕 hashtag feminism" and then MASS-STEAL plus sized art created by women, if pages like these that always go and steal my older self-portraits and other works... If they just put a link to my prints of those pieces in the text of those posts, or, fuck, my commission info page? I would literally be living on the moon right now. I would have a house on the moon

#there is actually nothing morally wrong with running an account that just reuploads ppl's artwork or their jokes or their cosplays #if you just put a VISIBLE LINK in the description of your post with proper credit then it would be beneficial for everyone #because you can get your little clout or whatever it is you want by putting a bunch of same-category content on a page #but nobody's getting fucked over because if your post blows up then people just get FUNNELED to the source #because it's placed so plainly where everyone can see it #and yeah it's better to retweet or reblog but #on the rare occasion that I see my shit reuploaded on tumblr WHICH IS WEIRD BC I MAKE MY OWN POSTS HERE but anyway #someone making their own post where they upload my stuff. and it's always the floral self portraits so let's say it's a post with all those #if I scroll to the bottom and it says like. Artwork by Serglesinner on Twitter <-- clickable link [Sergle's Prints] <-- clickable link #to my etsy #I'm like oh okay and all the anger leaves my body and I'm like ah I see. and I toss the rock aside #like oh okay so you actually care that a person made these pieces. Instead of posting the caption ''women <3'' or smth #like you've GOTTA die if you do that. but if you just link back #or if you go to the effort of writing like a description with a BLURB? like it's a damn museum. like a light paragraph of info #about what the art is and who made it and their links #I am literally sucking you in a strange and peculiar manner. that is extremely helpful #and maybe other artists don't want this AT ALL and they'd rather people not reupload even if it is credited #but I feeeeeeeeel. like 99% of the time this would solve the issue #reposters could genuinely be helping ppl. sometimes the repost gets more traction than the real thing #as long as it credits the creator then that's an okay thing to happen! #that can land somebody a sale! a commission order! a new fan! A JOB #A JOB!!!!!!!!!! #sergle.txt #I didn't write this eloquently AT ALL what the fuck ever barkbarkbarkbark

Happy happy birthday 🎂🎉🥳 Are you still doing the “cursed identity porn” au where LWJ can’t really see the Yiling Patriarch (because the mask?), but still tries to settle into being married to him? (Or JC traveling back in time?) Thanks!

a continuation of 1

“Where do you want the talisman?”

Lan Wangji looks up from checking over his pack one last time to see his husband in his doorway. He lifts an eyebrow.

“I’m going to be wearing the mask but there’s no reason for the enchantment to affect you,” Wei Wuxian says. “You already know what I look like. I have to paint it somewhere on your body – preferably someplace there’s no chance of anyone else seeing.”

Ah. That explains why Wen Qing have never seemed to have the same problems looking at Wei Wuxian that everyone else did during the war.

Lan Wangji considers several locations before untying his belt and shrugging off several layers of robes, letting them pool at his elbows and leaving his chest bare. “Wherever you think is best.”

Wei Wuxian hasn’t so much as given him a covetous glance since their marriage. Lan Wangji can endure it, if he must, endure the lack of his husband’s affection and even endure the way he seems so willing to share it with others. He does not have the soft, delicate features and willowy body of Wen Ning, Meng Yao, or Jiang Yanli. But if nothing else, his place as the number two most eligible male cultivator means that he’s not without his charms.

If he is completely outside of his husband’s tastes, it’s best that he knows that now.

He braces himself for indifference, keeping his expression bland to ensure that Wei Wuxian can’t see how surely it’ll crush him.

“Oh! Uh, um, sure, great,” Wei Wuxian says, voice at least two pitches higher than it is normally as his eyes dart up then down several times, blood rushing to his cheeks and painting them scarlet.

Lan Wangji stares. He has seen Wei Wuxian walk across a battlefield and stare down sect leaders and be harassed by a dozen uncles at once and surrounded by three screaming children and never has he seemed as out of sorts as he does right now.

He lifts up the brush and hesitates. “Is it okay – do you mind if I, is this okay?”

“Yes. You can touch me anywhere,” he says.

Wei Wuxian freezes, blinking rapidly before he swallows. “Oh. Kay.”

This is the best day of Lan Wangji’s life.

His husband steps closer, curling one hand around his bare shoulder to keep him steady and using the other to make small, sure brush strokes against the skin of his left side of his chest, right above his heart. He likes the symbolism. He also likes how Wei Wuxian’s blush doesn’t fade at all.

“There,” he says a few moments later. “Just give it time to dry and it should be fine for a week or so, then I’ll have to reapply. “

“Thank you,” he says, quirking his lips up at the corners when Wei Wuxian finally manages to look him in the eye

His returning grin is blinding. His eyes fall lower twice more before he leaves and Lan Wangji feels the low hum of satisfaction down his spine that he normally only gets from a particularly difficult spar.

His husband is capable of finding him attractive.

He just has to somehow encourage this behavior.

Twenty minutes later Meng Yao sticks his head into his room and demands, “What did you do to him?”

Lan Wangji pauses. Is he upset that he’s gotten Wei Wuxian’s attention? He never seems to mind Wen Ning, but perhaps that arrangement has already been settled between them and he sees Lan Wangji as an intrusion, regardless of his status.

“This is hilarious. Whatever it was, do it again,” he orders before continuing his way down the hall.

With pleasure.

#okay here's the thing #i did previously say i wasn't continuing this one because the post is so long now that it's cursed #and breaking it up at this point after all the scrolling i forced on other people just seems mean #sunken cost fallacy ect #HOWEVER #based on your emoji usage you are the anon that has asked for this for the last several open prompts #your dedication has won #i give in #here we are #prompt answers #prompts are closed #asks #anon #untamed

Some of y'all are so desperate to create Gender Binary 2.0 based on your rules and beliefs, even if they don't reflect the complexities of real life, and then get upset when people Don't want to be forced to partake in this new Gender Binary (this time painted with a trans pride flag!!)

#Jean mumbles #I just had to scroll through some. God awful takes on a certain post #And like. wow some of y'all are just full of so much hate #And I can only imagine and understand that a lot of it comes from your own fear and/or trauma #But that is not the fault of your siblings #And it can't simply be healed by making something like this up #It is healed through Actual Activism #Not a few letters of an acronym slapped together #Or with vague muddied phrases that have less defined edges than a circle #I don't know. I'm tired #And I just am so sick of all the infighting that doesn't have to be a Thing

Reminder if you're in the tags (any tags) and see the pornbots posting thirst traps to report those as spam 👍

#even just reporting the post rather than opening their blog and reporting the whole thing as spam #its very easy #and makes the post disappear from the tag as youre scrolling!

[bearhugsandshrugs]

there are a lot of takes in fandom i don’t vibe with and you know what i do?

✨ keep scrolling ✨

#if i read every durgetash take that reduces gortash’s entire persona to being about durge i’d be here all day #and i’d be in a bad mood #so i don’t #seen people fight in reblogs and so on but the great thing is: you don’t have to read it #just scroll past! can recommend 1000/10 #let them indulge themselves in that if that’s how they roll #or just mute a tag (like i muted cazador bc cazstarion is triggering me) #improve your tumblr experience and fandom experience all at once! #you don’t owe anyone your attention!

Thoughts about Billy Hargrove?

Not a fan. He was racist, violent, and abusive.

He put Max through hell. His aggression and cruelty will haunt Max for the rest of her life.

He would have killed Lucas, a literal child, because of Lucas's race & his relationship with Max.

He could have killed Steve - head trauma is serious - and he only attacked Steve because Steve stopped him from trying to harm children.

Billy wasn't successful in his attempted murder that time because Max, yet another literal child, had to step in and physically harm & threaten him in order to get Billy to stop.

Like, I'm sorry the dude had a rough home life, but that does not excuse his behaviors. A lot of people come out of abusive situations without becoming abusers themselves. So, even though Billy experienced trauma and sacrificed in the end, I do not personally consider him redeemed.

Also, if you or anyone else is a Billy Hargrove fan, I love that for you and I am not judging you. I get that people feel bad for him and find him attractive, so they want him to be redeemable. That character just does not sit right with me.

#stranger things #anti billy hargrove #you control your internet experience #if reading that somebody has a different opinion than you triggers you then you should just scroll past this #lucas sinclair #max mayfield #steve harrington

Yeah ..Todd in the Shadows (a strictly music reviewer) making an hour long video exposing James Somerton (a former video essayist) for misinformation and plagiarism DEFINITELY wasn't on my bingo card for 2023.

#todd in the shadows #james somerton #hbomberguy #youtube #tell me why i was scrolling youtube at 3 in the morning and that was the first recommended video on my homepage #and after watching it then and finishing it this morning #wow #as someone who actually watched some of james' videos #im disappointed #and a little freaked out #especially when todd dispelled all the nazis claims james made #the thing that got me was when jamee claimed that legend of korra was taken off the air for korrasami #even though it was because of the ratings drop #no thanks to nickelodeon #which is easy and basic information to find on wikipedia #but im probably reaching as someone wno actually watched korra as it aired #im like bro you can't just make claims like that #especially when there's info that dispels that from the creators themselves #cite your sources people

need to take away words like broken, unbalanced and overtuned from gamers who really just want to complain they are finding something difficult. those words obviously do have a place, but just because you haven’t figured out the dodge timings on a boss yet doesn’t in fact mean the fight is an “unfair broken mess” i swear souls fans never used to be this annoying. these games are, for the most part, about trial and error. figuring out what works and what doesn’t. you’ll fail 20 times in a row and then all of a sudden something will click and you’ll go “holy shit so that’s how i avoid that!” idk, to me that’s one of the things i love the most about these games but each to their own

#the consequences of scrolling reddit because i’m bored #we need this dlc so ppl will have new things to complain about #i can’t remember the others being this bad but for some reason elden ring has it bad #tbd #i’m just ranting ignore me #love all of y’all #‘your takes… extraordinary. the mark of a-’ no i’m not gonna finish that sentence

Kraang Leo and Mikey getting up to shenanigans expect it's a Ms paint doodle,,,,

Are they collecting dishes from around the lair? Stealing from a china shop? Somehow gotten themselves hired in some yokai restaurant? Got caught up in a cook off? I don't know!

I was drawing Leo and then I put dishes on his kraang arms and it all went down from there....

#scrolls art #rottmnt #rise of the teenage mutant ninja turtles #kraang!leo au #kraang!leo #rottmnt art #rottmnt fanart #rottmnt leo #rottmnt mikey #also this is just a small detail i put in but the eyes on leos arms are looking at mikey and i tried to make them look like. #so caring as in. Hes having so much fun wirh his little bro doing stupid things 🙏 #i don't remember what their duo is called uhhh #tidepod duo? #bajablast? #portal duo ?? #well whatever it is #mikey in the au is the one that from the start is like #“well your eyes might be pink and you might be turning into/ be a kraang but. y'know. you're still my brother” #“you're still Leo and that'll never change so” #he acts basically like nothing's wrong while the others...... don't.

idk I think I would be more interested in tes lore if any of the unique stuff was actually incorporated in the games in any way

#buzz #i know some people like reading the books #and i think they CAN be a very useful worldbuilding tool for expanding upon things that are presented in the story or displaying the #...world views of people within it #like in real life #but if you wanna talk about how interesting and weird the elder scrolls is and your only source is a series of obscure books that are not #...reflected by in-game content in any way its not real to me sorry #bc like they do this exclusively and for EVERYTHING #yeah the nature of ‘deep lore’ is that it’s not immediately visible but if all of the interesting things are ‘deep lore’ then it’s just #…a pussy move i think #they get credit for writing this cool and subversive lore that is then either ignored or directly in conflict with the game design #and often someone will bring up ‘deep lore’ that’s really either just some developer’s headcanon or a probable metaphor #and take it as gospel #tldr there’s such a huge disconnect between tes lore and the actual games that it holds no weight for me personally

there's so many del conversations i really fucking love and wanted to put my own spin on before we get an officially cast delirium, so starting off with this fun one from kindly ones!

just a ramble but i hate how the fandom spaces of idols industry in general assumes that your bias/oshi/etc is the person that you're romantically interested in. like have you not considered that i'm..... a fan? and not like swiping at a dating app?

#i understand the industry too plays a role in this by making romantic povs catered to the fans #but us in the fandom spaces? #some of us are here bcs oh well idk?? we like their skills? their personality? we relate to them? theyd probably make a great bff figure?? #likr woooo putting romantic r/s on pedestals okay #sorry am a bit bitter but oh well wtv #just hate scrolling thru “things that says abt you if your bias is _” and then you suddenly get a romantic scenario #kpop #jpop #txt #tomorrow by together #nct #lesserafim #stray kids #psychic fever #naniwa danshi #snowman #enhypen #seobseobs 💬
