i wish i could blast into peoples heads DRAWW!!!! DRAW BECAUSE ITS FUN DRAW BECAUSE CREATING SOMETHING IS THE BEST FEELING IN THE WORLD!!!!!! THE WORTH OF YOUR ART IS NOT DETERMINED BY QUALITY OR QUANTITY!!!!!!!!!!! YES IMPROVEMENT CAN BE SATISFYING BUT DONT WORRY ABOUT THAT STOP WORRYING ABOUT WHAT YOUR ART LOOKS LIKE AND START WORRYING ABOUT IF YOURE DRAWING WHAT YOU WANT TO DRAW. STICK MEN FURRIES DRAGONS LITERALLY JUST SCRIBBLING ON A PAPER IF IT MAKES YOU HAPPY THEN DO IT IT DOESNT NEED TO LOOK GOOD GO BE WHIMSY

So many people do not understand the relationship between climate change and cold weather.

:,)  Thank you

The idea of time being hard to keep track of is fascinating and actually really interesting, now that you’ve brought it up! I’d never even considered how difficult that would be in a sun-free place before. Little Vulkin does his best!

Poor Papyrus, and Sans. They were too little... I’m glad they at least had each other

I wonder how long it was between when Papyrus berated Gaster and when he ran away with Sans? How many days did he give his creator, hoping he’d come back home, only to finally reach his limit and leave?

These brothers....

Thank you, Solo. *hugs* Thank you for this, for the brothers supporting each other, for everything they tried to do...

honey the machinations of my mind are arbitrary, even to me, but here's a bit of how I come up with names:

I come up with a possible theme. For some examples: For Mintaka, her altmode is a lifting body. A lifting body was a failed prototype for a spacecraft. Spacecraft -> Space -> Stars. For Karyotype, she wants to bring about an organic revolution, so Organics -> DNA. For Redshift, they were a scientist working with black holes. That's a theme in of itself.

I look up terms relating to a possible field. Stars -> star names. DNA & Black Holes -> terms relating to both Black holes and DNA.

There's sometimes sites you can look up for this. Try to aim for glossaries, dictionaries, thesauruses or lists. Star names -> Wikipedia's list of star names -> Mintaka. DNA -> National Human Genome Research Institute -> Genetic Glossary -> Karyotype. Black Holes -> Knowing an unreasonable amount about Black Holes because you were obsessed with them in your entire middle school-> falling into a black hole -> Redshift. It's really about being willing to click on sites and research interesting words you see.

Hope this helps!

Angelkin culture is having to juggle being an atheist who doesn't believe in angels and literally being an angel yourself

If it helps, angels don't have to be thought of in the Christian context! I know plenty of pagans who believe in and even worship angels!

In case anyone is having a bad night:

You’ll be okay, friend <3

idk what traumatized or mentally ill person needs to hear this but dreams (especially the really disturbing ones you dont want to talk about to anybody) arent some deep peek into your psyche or a sign of your True Desires or whatever theyre quite literally your brain making fruit salad with whatever it can find on the shelf. just putting all that shit in a blender and hitting obliterate. its fine, youre fine, youre not a weirdo for it

Sure, the universe is a vast, lonely, and scary abyss—but there are also baby animals, so who cares!

so i have a mildly popular “reblog and put in in the tags” post going around and its. very clear how many people don’t know how to interact with a tumblr post

so, first of all, tumblr’s culture has changed a lot in the past couple years. there’s a genuine community effort to not start any drama, and ironically a lot of the current hostility is an effort to keep things calm. there’s also a change in how people interact with posts, so if you haven’t been here in a while please skip down to the tags/replies/reblog with text section.

for newcomers: you should be reblogging posts about as liberally as you would like something on twitter. if you only like stuff, people will think you are rude/a bot. you’ve probably heard people talk about “cultivating your dash,” and thats because this platform is 100% centered around your dashboard. trending matters less, unfollowing and blocking in order to shape your dash into it’s best form is widely accepted, the majority of the content you’ll find and interact with will be because of your dash, and the only way to put things on your dash is to reblog them. tumblr users are deeply distrustful of algorithms and have largely turned off the “see posts your friends have liked” function (i recommend you also turn of the various algorithms in settings → general settings → dashboard preferences).

so, once you’ve reblogged a post, there’s three ways to add content to it. the tags, replies, and reblogging with text. all of them have different connotations

the tags: an inside voice. originally they were meant for organizing your blog (and they’re still used for this), but they’ve also morphed into a way to share thoughts that aren’t funny/insightful enough for non-followers to be interested in. when in doubt, put your comment in the tags

replies: basically talking to your friends in class. your followers have no way of finding your replies (they don’t pop up on the dash, nobody gets notified except for the original poster) so chances are, only the person who made the post is gonna see your comment. it’s for quick one-offs that you’re okay with other people overhearing, but really is only made for one person. they’re like a public dm

reblog with text: an outside voice. you’re getting up on a stage in town square and entertaining people. make sure it’s funny or insightful— bottom line, add something new to the conversation. you should use this the least

general rules of thumb: 

when in doubt, reblog. people will judge you if your blog is only personal posts and you only interact with other content by liking it.  

the only things people will judge you for reblogging are personal vent posts. leave a like to give a little virtual hug

if a post is asking about your personality/opinions (i.e: tell me what’s the last tv show you watched, that kind of thing) put it in the tags 

also if you see a nice edit, gifset, or art, reblog and say something nice in the tags! it’s that nice sweet spot of common enough that no one will notice but uncommon enough to make the artist’s day

I had a sudden strike of inspiration again for making a generator! Hope someone finds it useful :) Drag or screenshot!

Note: I encourage to pick 2-3 times from the additional/special abilities squares. Also to just take the body type square as a inspiration and not super strictly.  ❤
