Uhhh I added some MLP designs to my redbubble if anyone's interested. Just FYI.
I've been using the same drawing tablet since 2011, it's an old wacom one with no screen that you plug in. It's decent but frustrating. It still works tho so I give it credit for longevity.
I've really been thinking of updating tho, but researching which one's good is frustrating, cuz every single one I could afford has a bunch of contradictory reviews.
And the only ones people seem to universally agree are decent are $10,000 dollars.
also I don't really want an ipad since I hate apple.
ok this ones kinda dumb
Can't believe we got a canon Hades and Persephone AU.
Yep! It's in "Classics Reimagined: The Odyssey".
The story mostly follows Pinkie in the place of Odysseus, but Discord and Fluttershy appear as Hades and Persephone respectively.
"fluttershy and discord are just like beetlejuice and lydia!!1!!" "fluttershy and discord are just like charlie and alastor!111!!!"
wrong answer! sorry you don't win the 10,000 dollars
my problem with these comparisons is that they're so very surface level and looking more at superficial similarities than the character personalities and dynamics.
That'd be like saying Wall E x Eve and C3p0 x R2D2 are the same ship bc they're both robots where one is yellow/gold and the other is blue/white. Like there's similarities sure, but the actual character dynamics are very different.

Literally any other colour would’ve been a better choice guys.
I’d like to point out that the colour red has more positive than negative meanings.
im sorry but this reply absolutely killed me
red can mean whatever the heck you want it to mean, that is never going to change that this straight up looks like they DRAGGED A BLOODY BODY ACROSS THE FUCKING FLOOR 😂
Hi fun fact, colors do have meaning and there is a legit thing called color theory. Red does has more positive connotations than negative like the @mintymaiden said. Red is associated with more love, lust, passion than blood and death just like the chart shows you but If you want, here’s a link for you to check it out yourself. Also, check out “The Designer’s Dictionary of Color” by Sean Adams. Have fun learning something

I think y’all are missing the point here.
You can theorize to Nebraska and back but that doesn’t change my immediate reaction which is that someone is literally dragging a corpse around
I like that the presumption here is that “No One On Tumblr Has Heard of Color Theory, Let Me Explain in Depth” rather than simply acknowledging that the VISUAL EFFECTS of this particular color choice, applied in the manner it was, can still amount to “this is a hospital and that looks like blood”
like, color theory doesn’t exist in a vacuum. If your design of choice for Blood Red Paint is asymmetric splatters and sploches against the wall, or in this case, a snail trail on the hallway’s floor, an infographic won’t override the viewers’ instinct.
this post is the perfect summation of tumblr’s reading comprehension and critical thought abilities
Reblogging because there’s a lot of new people on here and you need some context for the jokes.
Help a newcomer, reblog Children’s Hospital Colour Theory

the first rule of being on the internet is you should have other stuff going on, besides being on the internet
Wicked dolls by Mattel have the wrong website of the film printed on the packaging which directs you to an adult film website.
Hey, the ACLU is getting people to send letters to your Reps to have Congress pass the No Kings Act.
This act would make constitutional amendments to ensure that even sitting presidents are held liable for their actions. That NOBODY is above the law.
Their goal is 150k messages sent and at the time of writing this they're about 2.1k off from that goal!
ACLU gives you a prefilled message that you can edit to send to make the process easier, and will send it out for you.
This only takes a few minutes!
wheres seasons greasons
its that time of year again
It doesn’t have to be
its not optional
everyone says join your local mutual aid groups and build community, but uh, what do you do if a lot of them seem to have dissolved and the other ones don't have consistent recurring meetings.
this is real, and it's a thing that a lot of people are going to run into in the face of calls to "get involved," especially if they're people who haven't been deeply involved in their communities before. so here's what I can share:
- You can't expect it to be built for you already. Community organizing has fallen apart in a lot of places. That means you may need to be the one to start it. Someone has to.
- Your presence will matter. Local community networks are SMALL. That means that every single person has an outsized presence and an outsized absence. One person dropping off the map can feel catastrophic, but that also means that one person stepping up can make all the difference.
- Find a center. Any community group needs a steady base. That can be a physical location - that's why coffeehouses were historically such effective grounds for building political and creative movements. It can also be a person or people who are consistent and reliable. If one person shows up to make space for work on a regular basis, they'll be there when the second person shows up. They'll be there for the third. That's how it starts.
- Play secretary. A lot of activist groups are starving for some basic admin support. Maybe you're not up for being the leader, but maybe you can organize the Google drive. Maybe you can be the one that keeps phone numbers. There's a lot of unsexy shit work out there that needs to be done.
- Count your eggs before you start baking. There is an economics of labor to why activism circles have shrunk. Be mindful of the time and hands you have available when deciding what work you're able to take on.
- Build tolerance, build coalitions. Small organizing means you can't afford to fracture over every little disagreement. Decide your mission and your values from the start, the things that are non-negotiable, and don't get hung up on the rest. Be prepared to work with people you don't like. Focus on the task at hand.
- Network! Know what other related or like-minded projects are out there, whether they are groups like yours in other areas or groups in your community who are doing work that intersects with yours.
- Be there for people. Step up. Offer to help. Even outside an organizing structure, if you become the kind of person who shows up and helps, people will remember you and they will reach out to you when need arises.

Maybe it's already been added but if not this Instagram post has a great script to use and details of how and what to talk about when calling the senators and knowing who to call in the first place, please take 5 -20min out of your day to do this
