Anonymous asked:
OH MY GOD i’m so sorry to pop in here with so much energy but i had to stop by because ive been looking for your art for literal Years. i used to be very into yugioh, and i was on tumblr for a good bit of it, and i remember falling in love with the way you drew the boys. You were my favorite artist in the fandom and it inspired quite a bit of my art at the time (even now when i look at my preferences for soft texture brushes shdkfjdk)
anyways, i lost my old account a couple years ago and along with it, many reblogs and likes from that time in my life. and i didn’t quite know to miss it (i hadn’t been in the fandom for a while by that point), but i remember thinking about a mer au for a different fandom, and remembering the most awe inspiring piece i had seen who Knows how long ago. i only remembered the fact that it was for yugioh, yami was part octopus, it had some Gorgeous ocean hues, i loved the hair, and the poses of the two characters. and once it got in my head i started looking for it. tumblr’s search functions are awful, and i couldn’t find it, but i kept trying every couple months, trying to remember tags i could go through or going thru yugioh art blogs on the chance that i would see the artist that inspired me so long ago. I looked up sao (i thought i remembered a comic? related to it on the same blog but it was a long shot at Best) i tried looking through yugioh daily updated blogs until those stopped being as common, scrolling through every yugioh tag imaginable. it was frankly borderline impossible given my memory of the actual image was shaky at best, and i had no doubt that after years your artstyle would have evolved through practice, and i was afraid that i wouldn’t recognize any new works even if i happened across them.
I know it’s out of the blue and most likely just a long ass anon msg to you but i just had to come by and say that i finally found where it came from (you)!! and im so happy to have found it, ive actually been looking for Years, my memory isn’t the greatest but there’s no way it hasn’t been 4 or 5 years at Least by now. and its just as beautiful as i remember. (if you happen to have read this: if you ever have prints i would cry to be able to actually buy a copy)
i rlly just wanted to let you know that your art is beautiful (it’s not even scratching the Surface of it really), and it really did have such an effect on me as a growing artist. it most likely doesn’t mean much being just words shdkfjkd but thank you so much. i’m so so so happy to be able to look at the art and remember and really appreciate how lovely your works are with more experienced eyes.
that’s enough out of me, i hope you have a lovely week, and truly from the bottom of my heart: thank you
thank you very much for the kind message, i'm sorry i didn't see it sooner! i'm not on tumblr very often these days, but i appreciated reading this very much.
my time in the ygo fandom was definitely one of my favorite and most exciting times for me art-wise! i really enjoyed experimenting a lot with my favorite ships. i think i know the piece you're talking about, i remember being extra excited to paint it because krita was finally working semi-properly on my old macbook at the time. (i never liked photoshop, and while clip studio paint was fantastic, there's something extra delicious about a free but excellent painting app you know?)
i unfortunately don't have any art prints to sell, but i'm more than okay with people printing to keep at home haha

Kinda wish ppl would stop putting fics where A and B hate each other in the shipping tags just bc u want the foot traffic you’ll think u get from the ship name
Like I come here for sexy hot emotional development (and sometimes just plain smut), stop fucking giving me platonic hatred!!!
Man I’m sick of kids calling everything that’s not gonna be canon a fucking crack ship
Like stfu
Goofy/all might is a crack ship
Two weirdos in whatever story that have had actual scenes together are not a crack ship no matter how unlikely it is for them to ever get together!!

My god my girlies
MY GIRLIES. I am still crying, I am still crying about this. Every day I cry about this.
You bitched so hard about being forced to read 1984 in school when it’s so problematic (tm)
Maybe you should have actually paid attention when you read it
Because all these AI fics
You are LITERALLY MAKING THE GARBAGE NOVELS FROM 1984 that are written by machines
You have literally recreated the worthless soulless machine-made books
Literally,
Literally. Every once in a while it hits me in a fresh wave of disbelief and anger. You have literally created the dystopian book from the dystopian story about why dystopia is bad, and you are passing it around like it’s this amazing thing. I’m crying, I’m crying.
Not a joke, by the way

Duolingo Sucks, Now What?: A Guide
Now that the quality of Duolingo has fallen (even more) due to AI and people are more willing to make the jump here are just some alternative apps and what languages they have:
"I just want an identical experience to DL"
Busuu (Languages: Spanish, Japanese, French, English, German, Dutch, Italian, Portuguese, Chinese, Polish, Turkish, Russian, Arabic, Korean)
"I want a good audio-based app"
Language Transfer (Languages: French, Swahili, Italian, Greek, German, Turkish, Arabic, Spanish, English for Spanish Speakers)
"I want a good audio-based app and money's no object"
Glossika (Also a lot of languages, but minority languages are free)
*anecdote: I borrowed my brother's Japanese Pimsleur CD as a kid and I still remember how to say the weather is nice over a decade later. You can find the CDs at libraries and "other" places I'm sure.
"I have a pretty neat library card"
Mango (Languages: So many and all endangered/Indigenous courses are free even if you don't have a library that has a partnership with Mango)
"I want SRS flashcards and have an android"
AnkiDroid: (Theoretically all languages, pre-made decks can be found easily)
"I want SRS flashcards and I have an iphone"
AnkiApp: It's almost as good as AnkiDroid and free compared to the official Anki app for iphone
"I don't mind ads and just want to learn Korean"
"I want an app made for Mandarin that's BETTER than DL and has multiple languages to learn Mandarin in"
ChineseSkill (You can use their older version of the course for free)
"I don't like any of these apps you mentioned already, give me one more"
Bunpo: (Languages: Japanese, Spanish, French, German, Korean, and Mandarin)

baffling how much of this site is just conservative protestantism with a gay hat
you know what i’m in just enough of a bad mood that i’m ready to nail my grievances to the church door so let’s fucking go
- black and white morality wherein anyone who doesn’t believe/think/live exactly as I do is
a dirty sinnerProblematic and probably a predatory monster - everyone is
a sinnerProblematic buttrue believerspeople who activist the right way according to my worldview are still better than everyone else, and I will act in accordance to this belief in my own superiority to let everyone else know I’m better than them because Ifound Jesusam the most woke - casual and fucking omnipresent equations of womanhood with softness/goodness/purity/nurturing to remind every woman who isn’t/doesn’t want to be any of those things that they’re doing it wrong
- aggressive desexualization (particularly of women’s sexuality, to the point where it may as well not exist at all) accompanied by pastels [not a criticism directed ace ppl having a right to sex-free content and spaces but specifically targeted at a wider problem resulting from the previous point]
- YOU’RE VALID AND JESUS LOVES YOU and neither of these platitudes achieves a goddamn thing
- historical context is for people who care about nuance and we don’t have time for either (see: black and white morality)
- lots of slogans and quotes and nice little soundbites to memorize but does anybody actually study the source material with a critical eye to make their own informed analysis
- the answer is no
- I’ve been to bible study groups don’t @ me I know what the fuck I’m talking about
Good Christians™Nice Gays™ don’t fraternize with/let themselves be influenced bynon-Christiansthose terrible queers- all the media one consumes must be ideologically pure or it will surely harm the children
- it is Our Sacred Duty to protect the children from Everything, thus ensuring their innocence/purity/etc until such time as they are idk probably 25 years old
- literally just “think of the children” moral panic y’all can fuckin miss me with that
- people who don’t conform to the dominant thinking WILL be excommunicated/driven from the social group, and any wrong treatment they suffer will be seen as a justified consequence of their wrong thinking
- I Saw Goody Proctor With The Devil And She Had A Bad Steven Universe Headcanon
Thank you for breaking it down like that because so many of us have been saying it but to see a play by play breakdown comparison is just…Thank you.
- sipping tea and judging people as a group bonding activity
oh, man, speaking as a queer Christian who gets regular tumblr flashbacks to my childhood in the Bible Belt, YES
-belief that small snippets of text can be analyzed out context to understand the whole work/ judge the whole person -Desire for moral choices to be easy/ black-and-white leads to belief that it is possible to find a one-size-fits all answer to every situation -Literal, rather than literary analysis, with weird fixation on etymological roots that have nothing to do with source material -Belief that there is “one true interpretation” that is self-evident and will be understood by everyone encountering the same material regardless of background -Overwhelming, internalized sense of culpability for other people’s actions/integrity/souls -Overwhelming, internalized sense of personal guilt -Pressure to evangelize aggressively -Tendency to value broad ideals before individual needs -Hostility towards coexistence/tolerance/neutrality -Hostility towards lack of consensus in viewpoint -Knowledge as contamination -Guilt/contamination by proximity -Fixation on the sexual as uniquely dirty/sinful -Belief in “thought crimes” -Argumentation via appeal to higher authority/feelings of revulsion rather than internal, verbalizeable logic -“conversations” that are actually stealth soapboxes because one side isn’t actually interested in listening -“polite requests” that are actually commands because “no” is not considered an acceptable answer -in-group language -virtue-signaling and hostility towards the outgroup -gatekeeping -communities strongly built around the idea of being the world’s underdog -appropriation of other people’s persecution/victimization -treating the concept of oppression like a trophy -glorification/fetishization of victimhood
“I Saw Goody Proctor With The Devil And She Had A Bad Steven Universe Headcanon” knocked me on my ass

Please don’t let fandom ruin something you love. Walk away and unfollow the fans and enjoy the thing by yourself, or find a limited circle of people who ignore the discourse, or get your irl friends into the thing and collectively ignore the Internet community, or blacklist from here to the moon if you need to and only ever scroll through your rarepair ship’s tag on AO3. But don’t let fandom distort a show or a movie or a book or a comic you used to love so badly that you can’t enjoy the original anymore. Please. It isn’t worth it.
The best recent fandom I’ve been in lately has been a discord group of less than a dozen people. My bff and I send fanfics and fanart just to each other and we’ve been having so much fun, just like how fandom used to be. And it sucks that I had to go paywall, but things got a LOT better once I started posting fandom-only art to my patreon. You find ways to make it work.
