no sideblogs, we chaotically cram our personal posts, aesthetic posts, and 800 hyperfixations into one blog like men

yknow ever since people realized tumblr isnt dead and have decided to flock here from twitter and tiktok ive seen a huge influx of people in fandom spaces who dont reblog anything. at all.

like, i used to have an art blog with 340 followers. not a ton but not a small amount either given how this website works with creators. and in my experience back then even the ones who only left likes still reblogged other things or at least posted their own stuff. literally the only empty blogs were clearly bots.

but on this New art blog, i've had so many people with fandom-specific headers and icons with actual usernames as urls and some kind of title or description, but have. Nothing. no posts. all they do is like things. and it's always public, too. their following list and their likes list.

and honestly all it makes me think is that these people are New and also don't know how tumblr works. how likes don't give exposure. not even in a "oh, i know it doesn't give exposure, but i'm still going to reblog anyways" way, but in a genuine honest to god straight up doesn't realize tumblr likes don't work like twitter's.

PLEASE please if you're from tiktok or twitter or whatever please reblog people's art both fandom and original if you like it!! and maybe actually pad out your blog's content in some way so people won't potentially see you as a bot and block you.

REBLOG ARTIST'S WORK. THIS IS THE ONLY WAY THEY GET ANY ATTENTION ON THIS WEBSITE OH MY GOD. PLEASE. I BEG of you

OKAY AS SOMEONE WHO'S BEEN HERE JUST THREE WEEKS, ADMITTEDLY NOT FROM TWITTER/INSTAGRAM BUT FROM PINTEREST, I NEEDED TO KNOW THIS.

yeah on instagram the only way to interact with other people's posts is either to like them, post them as a reel that lasts a day, or to save them which works how likes work on tumblr--you can see them but they don't show up on your account. Tumblr working like this is absolutely not how any other websites currently work so I definitely understand why new people don't get it, especially since we're the only site that uses the term reblog and people are always saying (correctly) not to repost things but it can feel like they're telling you not to reblog their art if you don't know the terminology.

Part 3 of the chain with Pokémon starters! That's all of them done! I definitely left Sky and Twilight last as I had the most trouble choosing for them :,) But I have my reasons for these choices (and everyone), which is why I will post later tomorrow about why I chose them! ( Then I'm done with Pokemon x LU and will get back to drawing just the LU boys C: ) Part 1 - Part 2

There should be more baby boys named Ezekiel, Jeremiah, Ezra, Zechariah, Malachi, and Habakkuk in this world. Throw in a Melchizedek, a Jethro, a Lazarus, a Jedidiah. Perhaps a Ham. Perhaps a Japheth. Perhaps a Cornelius. Do you know an Onesimus? A Tychicus? A Barnabas? An Aristarchus? A Justus? Exactly. There aren't enough of them. Not to mention HOSEA (a name that slaps, it must be said) !!!!!!!

You want Habakkuks but you draw the line at Hezekiah????

Simulacrum Spirits AU Random Fact #16

More precious possessions of @x-i-l-verify six-Link Chain. Time and Twilight’s turn.

Time has ​​his instruments, especially his custom ocarina that he made himself. He loves using his paints and pottery wheel, and he’s very proud of the masks he’s carved. He also is protective of a pair of sterling silver hoop earrings Four made him, a mint plant that Wild found and put in a lopsided little pot he made himself (Time was very touched), and a braided bracelet and origami mantis that Warriors made.

He has this dragonfly made out of a stick, straw, and four seed pods that was the very first thing Twilight ever tried to make and shyly offered to Time afterwards. (Like with Sky's undertunic, an embarrassed Twilight has tried to convince Time to throw it out so he can make him a better one, but Time adamantly refuses). Last but not least, Time treasures a hair stick with a horse head on the end that Sky carved for him.

Twilight has his garden he is rightfully proud of, his fishing pole, and his first horseshoe grass whistle. He loves the horse-call flute Sky carved him and the pair of sterling silver earrings Four made (Twilight was stupidly happy that they're similar to Time's). He keeps the mug Time made for him with his favorite constellation painstakingly painted onto it in a special place along with a chunk of sparkling pyrite that Wild gave him. He takes special care with the braided bracelet and little origami cat that Warriors made him too.

It’s sad that not all of this survives when the house burns down. At least their horse friends are safe.

South of Midnight

From the creators of Contrast and We Happy Few, South of Midnight is a spellbinding third person action-adventure game set in the American Deep South. As Hazel, you will explore the mythos and encounter creatures of Southern folklore in a macabre and fantastical world. When disaster strikes her hometown, Hazel is called to become a Weaver: a magical mender of broken bonds and spirits. Imbued with these new abilities, Hazel will confront and subdue dangerous creatures, untangle the webs of her own family's shared past and -if she's lucky - find her way to a place that feels like home.

Are you still taking requests? If you are, could i humbly request Sky and Four hanging out in some way? They could be napping together, protecting each other in battle, discussing their places in the timeline, whatever seems most interesting to you. :D No pressure of course! Have a great day. ^^d

Save youself, I'll hold them back by My Chemical Romance

I highly recommend listening to the song while reading the comic btw!!

BEHOLD MY MAGNUM OPUS! Bro this took more than 2 months, in part because I was really busy IRL during one of those months, but even then this was a pretty large project for me compared to what I've done before. BUT NOW I'M FINALLY DONE! 😭 Save yourself, I'll hold them back is just such a Leo-coded song, especially if you include the whole bad timeline, I just had to make something rottmnt-related with it. I actually envisioned this at first as an animation, but I lack both the skill and motivation to animate so it became a lyric comic instead lol.
