Shout out to all the Black ppl that can no longer participate directly in the fandom they love because of the stresses of racism đđŸ you contain multitudes of value and I'm sorry that the color of your skin and the power of your voice makes people not want to acknowledge that.
Not to be a pessimist, but can we??? Get a new writer on Uncanny? Please and thank you?
say what you want about the switch 2 but leave my beautiful wife 3.5mm headphone jack out of it iâm so happy for her she deserves this moment <3
tiktok brain is like a prion disease to me
You can tell what instruments people are most familiar with by how they do air guitar. Like, people whoâve never played an instrument will do it like how they saw it on tv or from a friend. I played piano and trumpet as a kid, so my understanding of how music is made involves a lot of hand motions. So my air guitar is very heavy in âchord changesâ and fretboarding(never got around to learning a string instrument đ; donât know the lingo). And people whoâve played guitar/bass, or are pro air guitarists, probably have a more âform accurateâ style of air guitar. Makes you think.
God, I see what youâve done for others, and I want this for myself.
My boyfriend: art is a quasi divine thing, it is the pinnacle of human creation. Essentially, art is an artifice in which the artist imbues a particular lens in which a artist frames a particular object so as the viewer can interpret said object. Art exists separately from the medium; every medium can be used to make something entertaining or well crafted, but that doesnât make it art, let alone good. Good Art will further its medium/media and/or give meaningful commentary on the world or human condition. *Good* art extends upon being aesthetically gratifying. This is why Sabrina Carpenter, genre fiction, blockbusters, Marvel, etc arenât art, theyâre merely entertainment.
Also my boyfriend: Hailey Welch is a post-modern performance artist
My cishet straight man roommate: âIâm a *philosopher*. I have absurdly high standards for all art. Iâm a manic pixie poet photographer who listens to Death Grips religiously. I donât even watch video essays without critiquing them like Scorsese. Genre fiction isnât art, only high art is art. Sabrina Carpenter isnât a real artist, BTW; not like the Beatles.â
Also my roommate: âHaliey Welch is legitimately a postmodern performance artist.â
Me:
really hard for me to get people into xmen because i 1) do recommend starting with giant size and reading from 94 onward 2) also feel the need to warn people about how claremont is an insane person
Just looked at a blog where the header description said 'sometimes I reblog posts I like so I don't forget them'.
And I feel like that, right there, explains so much about how the site has changed in the last few months.
People now think reblogging is an unusual behaviour, rather than a default.
Tumblr newbies, please, for the love of baby Jesus, reblog the posts you like. That is the whole reason the site exists - for you to collect all your shiny fandom objects in a single space. Which you can organize to your heart's content. Or not organize at all, if that's your jam.
Our blogs are intended to be collections of posts, not collections of likes.
Happy 24-6-01!
RIP KABOSU THE DOGE MEME DOG
saw a post about redemption arcs and i realized that a lot of our discussions would be improved if we discussed villains for what they are (pieces of a narrative whole) instead of what they definitely are not (real people on trial)

Remember all you. THIS is the post that triggered Rita's ban.
you know what, since we've been talking about how annoying it is when people react like "what drugs were they on when they wrote this đ€Ș" when someone is creative, i just wanna say
everyone who says "HOW IS THIS A KIDS' MOVIE đ±đ±", when a kids' movie is a little bit out of the box and features dark or deep imagery and meanings, owes me one thousand euros
Here's the notes on the Medieval Fantasy Star Wars au! I'll add to this as I do more. If you're new here, this is the saga of me drawing Star Wars but like what if it was Fantasy?
I am SICK and TIRED of seeing so much hate towards Al! Al hasn't done ANYTHING to hurt ANYONE! Al is harmless!
But I can already hear the Al haters out there!
"Al isn't original!" No shit, Sherlock! That's what we love the most about Al.
"People aren't supposed to look like that!" That sounds like a problem between you and God, and frankly, plenty of people like the way Al looks.
"Al is just too WEIRD!" Have you ever thought that you might be to NORMAL to actually appreciate Al?
I think you all need to apologize to Al right now!
APOLOGIZE TO HIM
APOLOGIZE TO WEIRD AL RIGHT NOW!
Reblog to kill it faster
so my apartment building got a notice board to post fire alarm tests and maintenance announcements and such. the building is pretty well-maintained, so we rarely get notices. the board is big and grey and to think it would be empty like that 99% of the time was a bland boring sin i just couldn't bear, so i vandalized the corner of its empty canvas with a teeny tiny Guy
and within a few days, there was a sudden addition from my one of my neighbors along with a Bunch of thumbtacks. this was an unexpected, but welcome surprise!
well there was still so much space, i figured i'd add another crumb to the art hoard. i'd been playing genshin that day so i drew my favorite grandpa
and like clockwork, new art manifested!! this person is gonna grow to be a great artist i know it. the detail in those stones? hell yeah that's cool.
we're two weeks into it. more neighbors have joined in with their artwork. who knew there were so many artists in my building?? we're onto somethin great here i just know it.
This tweet had me absolutely flabbergasted twice because I read this and I was like "Dame Aylin? The tall, blonde, supermodel demigoddess? How is she at all outside of the beauty standard? This is stupid" and then I scrolled down and there were a hundred replies by straight dudes who were calling her ugly and talking about anime women they prefer
