“Art cheats”.   Or as we call them in the art world: “skills” and “techniques”.

(None of these are “cheats”?  They’re just teaching people how to learn to do things?  Or in some cases, introducing another way of thinking about how to do something, which often will work for an artist who feels “stuck”.  Like, I get the impulse to be casual and hip about it, but I fundamentally see something wrong with encouraging artists to denigrate their own process of learning new skills or learning how to really make various digital art programs work.  Don’t be down on yourself for having to learn!  Don’t be down on yourself for looking up and following tutorials!  “Real artists” are not born with the above knowledge just springing forth from their own minds!  And you aren’t “cheating” by learning.)

Dearly Beloved is the perfect nerd song to play at your wedding because people would be like “yo this song is so pretty what is it called??” and you can just be like “Dearly Beloved” and they’ll think its specifically for weddings, not from a videogame that features Mickey Mouse beating up monsters with a key

I highly recommend you follow the person I reblogged this from.

the idea that humans are a garbage species is so obnoxious no one talks about the peaceful parts of history and prehistory because they aren’t as exciting as us killing each other but um homo sapiens have been doing awesome things all over for a long time….we survived the fucking ice age…we made it through the sinai desert….we shared the savana with big cats before we ever made a weapon, we wove baskets from literal plants and halved blades from flint to handles we made, carved harpoons from bone and fought megafauna for our loved ones, cooked food and took care of the elderly and buried our dead, painted pictures and shared stories, built homes from clay and mud and straw, made instruments so we could dance and sing…it is so easy to focus on the negative and i get it ok we are in the middle of a mass extinction event that specific humans are at fault for but listen: they don’t want you to remember it hasn’t always been like this…we were and are so much more than evil

After reading a post about waterproof notepads/bath crayons for capturing shower ideas i bought a pad on amazon

mdlksdfsd my fave thing is when ppl outside of florida ask “how do alligators even get in ur pools??? how do they get into ur yards???”

alligators can climb fences. they do this a lot

@ the replies - absolutely alligators can climb fences!! chain link fences are easier for them bc they can get a grip on them, but yep alligators climb fences to get into peoples pools + canals + backyards

i would like to add that alligators wont chase you/attack you unless you provoke them, but yes they absolutely climb fences and ladders and basically everything all the time

and it hurts like hell

[image is a 3-panel monochrome comic of axel and saix: as children playing, as young adults embracing, and as adults in their organization coats, saix cutting into a shellshocked axel with his claymore. the text reads, respectively: i loved / and i loved / and i lost you]

wheres that picture of gwendoline christie holding a baseball bat sitting near a book that’s titled “gay sex devices”
