Is this dress kind of slappy or is it kind of stupid

#you have to be honest. #I don't know why I'm asking bc my ass can't justify spending money so I'm prob not gonna buy it #i'm just laying in bed lustfully looking at cute clothes etc etc #but really. tell me #I kinda like it #sergle.txt

Sometimes I remember that line in S3 meant to show how BK keeps up appearances of running Providence more humanely than WK where Rex says WK was so cheap that he didn't even buy individual stalls for the bathroom and then I remember that Rex got his own basketball court and locker room and Providence was constantly canonically paying for repairs for damages caused by Rex fighting EVOs and fighting EVOs rather than just immediately collaring them and paying for food and cages and such for incurables and EVOs waiting for Rex to cure them and paying to keep Paradise/Purgatory base afloat and then I think maybe. Maybe there is another reason WK was cheap.

#generator rex #genrex #For the record too I still 100% after VK kidnapped Rex the first time Providence was like Fuck. We can't have VK getting in his head. #WK was like fuck how do I bribe him. What do kids like. 401Ks? No. #Calling in Noah for a meeting sitting ominously at his desk leering down at the kid. It's silent for 15 straight seconds. #Then just. '..........What did Rex say he was interested in again.' #He wouldn't ask Six bc fighting over Rex caused their divorce so he asks Noah. #And then he gets basketball. And video games. And music. Okay. #Gives Rex a flatscreen and a million CDs and movies and his own fucking basketball court #WK has no idea how to actually deal woth children but everyone likes expensive gifts so throw that at him #Still doesn't give him a credit card though bc why would he need it. He's supposed to stay on base. #Credit cards encourage leaving base and spending money.

What is the author's perspective on the most challenging parts of writing a story, and what advice do they offer to writers struggling with different phases of storytelling?

Okay I'm going to be real with you, the syntax of this ask was weird enough I went to your blog to try to see what your deal is and whether you're a chatbot.

Your blog turned out to be about two weeks old and consist largely of reblogs from one person. (@cy-cyborg and sideblogs thereof.) Your blog header and all your (few but voluminous) original posts read like they were composed by a chatbot trying to somehow sell the concept of reading?? books????? Cozy book times??? The experience of following your blog as an extension of the pleasure of reading books?? The literary aesthetic?

But while you have the chirpy redundant sentence structure of a machine learning algorithm and a habit of falling into the customer-service-plural-first, you don't actually descend into nonsense at any point I noticed, rendering those posts ambiguously human in the same way as the average recipe blog. Also you commit flagrant instagram-style tag spam.

I'd have blocked and ignored and possibly reported you as a spambot, except on some of your reblogs-with-commentary you turn into a normal human person who lives in Australia, so I kinda threw up my hands. Maybe you have blood idk.

I have no idea what the point and/or goal of your blog is. Altogether baffling.

Anyway I definitely don't speak for some collective hivemind of authors and this question is way too vague for me to do much with. If I didn't suspect it of coming from a robot I'd have put in some effort to engage meaningfully, but trying to figure out what manner of entity was farming me for content used up all the spoons I had available.

#ask #hoc est meum #cozycornerchronicles #maybe you just got here from instagram or something #there's so much sales pitch and no product??? #uncanny #scifi future where randos are slightly less likely to be robots if you can't figure out how anyone would make money off of this #if you are a person sorry for ragging on your style like this but stg i'm not the only person getting tipped into the uncanny valley #by the mechanical bubblegum approach #i do like being asked my opinion but this was so damn weird

I wanna thank my irl friends who follow me here and also my beloved mutuals as well as followers who still send me kind messages and try to interact with me and my stuff even if I'm bad at doing it myself.

Honestly, things haven't been that great with me lately, so... it means a lot to me. Honestly. <3

#personal #i had to make the tough decision to drop out of school last week #i didn't exactly want it if i'm being completely honest here #but certain stuff was preventing me from getting further so i knew the teachers are gonna ask me to quit over at our teams meeting #i instantly contacted my nurse about my situation. and she got me a doctor's appointment which was yesterday #where i kind of broke down a little. not because she didn't grant me the sick leave i thought i was going to get #after feeling down and sleeping terribly for weeks #but because she actually *got me*. like. she actually listened to me and figured out some stuff and told me that #what i'm going through and what i've been going through for years would make anyone depressed #so i couldn't help but cry a little because yeah. i'm so tired of never being enough no matter how hard i try #because my brain's wired a certain way and it makes me slow and kinda clumsy and inattentive at times #which. you might guess is not ideal at today's work environment. or studying-wise even #so instead of granting me sick leave (she did say we can change that at anytime though) she told me to wait for that phone call #from the unemployment office. which i should be getting tomorrow. or well. later today #and talk to them about this. to see if they can offer some solutions. or if we can figure something out #'cause i'm getting closer to my 40s and not getting anywhere and it's wearing me out and tiring me out #because i clearly can't help myself or change my ways on my own #i managed to get some work last week though. at the local youth house. one shift though but money still #but i haven't been getting those offers a lot during the past few months so it's not enough to support me obviously #so i definitely need something else. and i hope i can get help. that someone could help me #i should finally get tested for adhd next month too. i don't know if i even have it or if it's gonna change anything but #at least i'd know #anyway i needed to get this off my chest. cause i'm kinda crying a little bit even now just thinking about this whole thing #sorry

bro you are on the FANDOM WEBSITE why are you NOT supporting your fandom creators????? do you WANT us to stop??? do you want there to be no more art & fic?? because that’s what happens when you don’t reblog our stuff. this isn’t a threat, this is a reality. if there is no one here wanting to see our stuff we won’t post it. I’m not trying to guilt trip here, none of us are, we’re literally just saying that if there is no motivation to spend 10+ hours making fanart or 5 years writing a multichapter fic for free then we won’t fucking do it

^this shit? ridiculous. I LOVE EVERYONE WHO REBLOGGED & INTERACTED WITH MY ART! I LOVE EVERYONE WHO ASKED QUESTIONS & COMMENTED!! but so many of these people just liked it & left. this has been getting worse over the years, too. the reblogs to likes ratio has been getting crazier. I create because I love it, but if I have no reason to post, I won’t. fandoms dry up because of this. creators quit because of this.

we just need to stop acting like this is instagram, or that anyone cares what your blog looks like. people don’t see your likes, they see your reblogs. you want that favourite content creator to post more art? you want that writer to post the next chapter of your fav fic?? reblog it. share it. show them you care, because otherwise they won’t. this is a hobby we do for free. you consume our stuff for free. you aren’t entitled to it, so please just reblog, it isn’t hard.

#we aren't asking for money we're asking for you to hit a button #stop being a little bitch #this is tumblr. no one gives a shit about your ''aesthetic'' or whatever #no one even looks at who reblogs what on here #i'm sick of seeing people not sharing works out of spite & acting like wanting attention for our labour is bad #I SPEND 15 HOURS DRAWING YOU BETTER FUCKING REBLOG IT. I'M POSTING IT SO I CAN FEEL BETTER #AFTER SPENDING 15 HOURS HUNCHED IN A SHITTY CHAIR WITH MY WRIST ALL FUCKED UP & MY LAPTOP TRYING TO KILL ITSELF & ME #im not asking to be PAID im asking for you to share artist's & writers' works. we are 99% of the fandom's content #you want more content? fucking motivate us to make it. you are getting it for free. stop being an asshole & fucking reblog it #i'm so fucking tired of people with their cold ass takes #if i EVER like anyone's art & don't reblog it THAT WAS A MISTAKE. I MEANT TO REBLOG BUT TUMBLR GLITCHED OR I RAN OUT OF REBLOGS #i KNOW how hard it is to spend hours days YEARS on something & for no one to care #i am literally just asking for everyone to have some sympathy #like imagine if your employer started complaining about how selfish it is you work for free? that's this #you'd quit that job #YOU CAN'T COME TO THE FANDOM WEBSITE & COMPLAIN THAT FANDOM CREATORS WANT ATTENTION FOR THEIR WORK #EVERYONE WANTS ATTENTION YOU STUPID MANTHING IT CAME FREE WITH YOUR FUCKING HUMAN BRAIN

So yeah the b-day girl can't afford to have time drawing for herself but wanna celebrate nonetheless. So let's throw back this full-color piece I did last year and be proud of it once more!

I achieved a lot of things this year, and even though I'd never had enough tolerance to love this weak and hopeless self, just for today I will give me a word of encouragement and a hug for all the achievements that I had to struggle to achieve.

For only one day let's hope I'll be gentle with myself, to brace myself for another year of struggle to come.

✨✨ Cheer! ✨✨

#Non dol posting #ask box will have to wait more I'm hella busy now I collapsed at work 2 days ago so I can't draw to answer just yet #I do want to draw Lya and Robin and DoL soon they're like my comfort zone #this site is my comfort zone #if only we don't have to try so hard just to keep on living #existential crisis every birthday #every year #every month #it's like a curse #why do I live #jk #jk jk jk #need to draw some dol soon or I'll have break down again #being sad is exhausted I cant be sad #I have to make more money #and keep going #keep living #yeah

Luz sits down at the owl house for another "session" (a few months after their first one, so Eda knows a lot more about her), Eda brings her a non-alcoholic and then goes "I met your sis in the human realm yesterday, how come you never said she is a basilisk?"

THIS MADE ME YELP ALOUD. EDA NOOOOO......

#i can't remember if i replied to it or not but i was sent another ask about eda potentially Knowing vee #in that she supplies vee with magic stuff so vee can shapeshift and vee gives her human junk or money in return #and that's Really Good. will dig thru my inbox to see if i can find it if i didn't respond to it #replies #princess luz au #luz noceda #vee noceda #eda clawthorne

if i go to pride this year and i see people selling fucking harry potter merch i'm gonna flip my fucking lid

#even seeing it last year i was like. man are you fucking serious #but i feel like the way things have been even just this year i wouldn't be able to keep my mouth shut #i'm so full of rage and fear i don't have the mental capacity to ignore it anymore #i don't even care if it's handmade and none of the money is going to rowling or you're donating the proceeds to a trans organization #IT'S PUTTING HER ART OUT THERE! IT'S THE FREE PUBLICITY! #what are you gonna say when some kid sees your merch and asks what it is? #'oh it's from this book i really really love but don't read it because the author is a huge bigot' #THE COGNITIVE DISSONANCE OF IT ALL! #something something gay people can't even boycott chick fil a #sorry i just finished watching that hour long ro ramdin video about the hogwarts game and being transgender #and i flew into a rage because people care more about their fleeting feelings of nostalgia than transgender peoples' lives

hey guys, i hate making posts like this but i am in need of some extra help right now. due to hours being cut at work and being out of the office over the holidays i am really tight for money. i'm will not be able to afford my meds this month and my bills coming out at the end of the month. i can ask for an advance at work, but if i do that i won't be able to make my rent payment next month if i do that. i know it's after holidays and money is tight for everyone right now, but if anyone can assist in any way so i can get my meds, pay my bills, and buy some more groceries/cat food/cat litter that would be appreciated. if you can't help out, please feel free to reblog this. thank you guys.

[incorrect-ikevamp-quotes]

i headcanon that the name mc is using (aka the player’s name) is not her real one bc you know how the ikevamp mc is the only one who’s name isnt automatically entered in like ikesen mc’s name is mai? Yeah i figured it might be a mystery for funsies^^so she’s probably like sebas who uses a fake name

Honestly that's big mood, only because I feel like it's pretty sensible being in a mansion full of a bunch of weirdos you don't know--I'd probably just pick a random name and stick with it LMFAO. Like nah sister, you ain't getting me to no secondary location (technically Comte already did but in fairness, it's the principle of trying to be safe that counts).

I also can't get over Sebastian using a fake name, for some reason it's uproariously funny to me???? Like he had no need to be that extra, he literally chose to be here, but he was like I'm Committing To The Bit. I'm Going Butler Mode. Akihiko Is No More, Only Sebastian. And for the life of me I will never get over it 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

#asks #minnie mumbles #ikevamp #ikemen vampire #ikevamp mc #ikevamp sebastian #i mean i fully understand if people don't think about it this way but tbh the idea of it is relatable to me #would be esp funny if later on mc is just like #sooooooooo #you remember when I first met yall and uh #introduced myself as x? #funny story........ #man why was my first thought #dazai: I KNEW YOU LOOKED LIKE A [insert her name here] PAY UP ARTIE #arthur: *begrudgingly handing him money* #isaac: #theo: well you're still just a hondje #mansion is just so full of love and acceptance fr fr #although i can't imagine they judge her too much literally like half of them go by aliases at this point LMFAO

Do u give money to people on tumblr?

Short answer, no. I don't reblog those posts, either. Majority of them are scammers, bonus scamster points if they use their race/gender as emotional manipulation. (Rant incoming cause this pissed me off, not you, but it had me thinking about a lot of shit). I'm sorry but I could never be on Tumblr begging for money, that's embarrassing, no offense. I commend anyone who's shameless enough to do that cause in all seriousness, couldn't be me. I feel like there are just some things you shouldn't do & asking strangers, half of which are minors, to give you their hard earned money in trade for nothing is one of them. The victim mentality of "let me spam my followers with a bunch of sob story updates about my life's issues & guilt trip them into giving me cash", no. Leave them alone. That shit's annoying, inconsiderate & entitled. & it's always the same fucking people holding their hand out. The people you're begging for cash are more than likely struggling too & need theirs. Tumblr is the worst place to ask for assistance. If you need money then you should seek a financial aid program, or I don't know, log the fuck out & get a job like everyone else? That's what people who need money do. There's no excuse, I said this before & I'll say it again, making money nowadays is easier than it has ever been cause of access to technology. Everything is virtual. You can work from home. There are people making millions eating for a fucking living on YouTube. If you're broke atp it's cause you either make excuses for why you can't work or you're just lazy. It's a choice. You don't even need to physically go out & find a real job. Make something. Perform a service. Everyone has something they can offer. Don't sit there & expect people to pay you for nothing. I hate lazy ass people who wallow in self pity, make excuses & don't contribute anything to society & simply exist to leech off others. It's parasitic & pathetic. You "can't work", but you can play around on social media every day? Hmm. You deserve to live in poverty then. You're not special. You better sell some p-ssy, d!ck or c*ke. If you're bussing it open to everyone anyway you might as well get paid for it, in the words of my wife, "make it count". Seriously, I don't respect those people. Tumblr beggars are the equivalent of irl bums who loiter at gas stations harassing passersby for change. It's fucking irritating & unfair that we live in a world where weak people are rewarded, coddled, catered to & given breaks for doing nothing. "Oh well, you know, John can't work, he's dealing with a breakup that has him in a deep depression. I just- I don't know if his mental health will allow him to work." Bro, I sympathize but at the end of the day, screw John. He has no real problems. There are people with cancer & aids right now who are working. People with no limbs are working. He can work, he's physically able to, but ultimately he won't cause he's a mentally weak man with no drive. Let's just call it what it is. I've been homeless & depressed before, I dug myself out of that hole WITH NO HELP, if people can bounce back from homelessness, addiction, abusive relationships & rebuild their lives, if people with deformities can work there's no excuse for why these lazy asses are living in houses, have food & water, with themselves being the only person they have to take care of but they're on here begging us & living off the gov't. That shit IS sad. & I get so heated over this topic cause the bastards who log on & beg aren't going to log off fucking Tumblr & make adjustments so they can afford to live, they're not going to or offer an exchange, they'll continue to do this shit. In the comfort of their home. Meanwhile, the ones they beg have to scrounge. So no motherfucker, I can't help you spend my money. Follower counts mean nothing here cause nobody gets paid on this dead app, this ain't YouTube. If you have hella followers but you still can't eat or pay your bills it's a sign your priorities are fucked. Up. Your followers owe you nothing. Have a little pride & self respect.
