Advice no one wants to hear:
You HAVE to put in the work or it isn't going to happen.
This means, yes, you're going to need to actually work constantly for a solid year to reach your goals. Probably longer than that, honestly. You are going to be tired and it isn't as easy as anyone makes it out to be.
But if you don't get up and make the change in your life, no one is.
so did that the vampire get the job
Artists who’ve gotten used to twitter are afraid tumblr won’t be as useful to them if they jump ship, but here’s the thing: twitter is only built for instant short-term gratification, and it severely limits what you can share anyway. You can only post one short paragraph and up to four images that get compressed to death, then at best get a burst of viral attention that lasts a day or two before their algorithm buries it forever and it’s forgotten immediately. On tumblr you can post a whole original article, story or multi-page comic. If you want it to get attention you just tag it every relevant thing you can think of and it stays pretty visible in those tags forever and ever. People interested in said tags follow them or routinely search them, scroll through and will see what you made even years later. Without an algorithm automatically flooding your dash with nonsense and without a “trending news” feature, it’s also practically effortless here on tumblr to avoid things you don’t want to see. If you don’t like a political topic, you just don’t search for it or follow people who post about it and you’re already significantly less likely to see it, just like that. If you really miss algorithmic content, tumblr mobile now has the “for you” section and has always had “based on your likes” options. This is absolutely the most comfortable and useful website for creators to network on as long as you understand its advantages!
on the reverse side: tumblr struggles to stay not very unprofitable rather than extremely unprofitable, and artists always need more reach and visibility. if you want to support artists, and the site itself, reblogging art you like, and spreading blazed posts that are at all palatable to you, is actually measurably helpful.
i haven’t seen this talked about yet, but: if you don’t want to have blog full of random nonsense, consider starting a themed sideblog! 90s nostalgia, fandom-focused, something-core, everything that’s green. you can be a curator, and other people will follow you if they like the same subject. this also really helps artists! getting your work reblogged by a curated blog with a lot of followers can really boost it.
you don’t have to be creative yourself to promote a creative environment. artists need gallery space, which means they need gallery owners. curators and collectors are valuable too.
minecraft add baby endermen immediately
i think to counteract the obvious threat theyd be, make them run away instead of aggro

IMMEDIATELY taken over by the need to make a visual of this

Being poor makes you so crazy. I've never been able to afford nice kitchen stuff, right? Well, my partner just got me my first mug that's microwave safe, and I've been microwaving everything in all of god's creation in that thing. Hang on a second.
I fucking hate my piece of shit phone. It's always suggesting these scary emojis, like, yeah, when I accidentally hit the emoji button, I wanted SCORPION MONKEY to show up. Thanks so much.
researchers at MIT have proven their hypothesis that "eyeballin' it" is the most accurate form of measurement
