im trying to go to sleep but i cannotttttt stop thinking about this and laughing
Listen, we have to keep this thing circulating on the internet for at least another two decades, because I have to believe that one day that little girl will be grown enough to stumble upon it and She Will Explain
We’ve made it 5 years folks
so the house of representatives just passed a bill that will now move to the senate to BAN tik tok completely in the united states and they are expected to argue that “national security risks” outweigh the freedom of speech and first amendment rights. biden has already said that if it gets to him, he will sign it. whether or not you use the app…….this is something to be worried about
before u have the kneejerk reaction of “good I hate tt anyways” or “maybe ppl will go outside” that’s not what this is about! the government wants to remove an entire app with over 170 million american users (who in large have used it as a platform to build community, consume and spread world news, advocate, organize), and try to force people back to us based apps like meta and google. please think about the implications. please think about what else they could potentially do if they get away with this. this could very well set a precedent for free speech & constitutional rights as well know it, and it is imperative we are on the right side of it
By the way, the actual language of the bill would allow them to ban any website or internet hosted app from a "foreign adversary", as described in the vaguest possible terms. This isn't about tiktok and will not stop at tiktok.
now, THIS is the "tiktok ban bad" post to reblog.
As Gaza is facing THE LONGEST EVER blackout of communication and internet access, eSIMs are the ONLY way for Palestinians to stay connected to each other and the outside world. The group of volunteers behind the Connecting Gaza initiative are prioritising and making sure doctors, other medical staff and journalists stay connected. Your eSIM donations literally save lives.
Check the Connecting Gaza website, Mirna_elhelbawi 's social media and the connectgaza instagram for more information and updates. You can also check the impact your donations have through testimonies on those accounts.
*IMPORTANT* keep an eye on mirna_elhelbawi and connectgaza social media since other eSIMs donations (Airalo, Mogo, Simly) may also be needed depending on the location they are most needed at a specific moment. Different eSIMs have better connectivity in certain areas. This might also change with time as the conditions in Gaza are very unstable.
Get $3 off with code BREN79PP
You can see when the eSIM you bought has been activated and is being used.
If you can, please donate an eSIM.
Please share, reblog and retweet.
Anxious Euphoria
I have a LOT of feeling about Flirting with Social Anxiety. Most of which can be summed up by me making soft noises while rewatching the endcard on repeat.
These bois deserved some happiness, but I am A f r a i d for whatever comes next. I don’t think we’ve escaped the angst, only postponed it.

Patton had thought about kissing the fairy prince far more than was probably strictly appropriate; he’d wondered what it might be like, but nothing he’d imagined covered it even slightly.
The prince’s palms were cradling Patton’s face, impossibly gentle, like he was handling a soap bubble with his bare hands – and yet Patton was acutely aware of a buzzing under his own skin, like his hair standing on end just before lightning struck.

This is my ode to @tulipscomeinallsortsofcolors‘s captivating series Love and Other Fairytales. A series that owns my entire soul. If you like fantasy stories, this one’s for you.
I was possessed by the muses with the need to do @stargazing-squid‘s DTIYS
Lovesick Logan is my jam, broham.
Depicted in the Strength Arcana is a Prince gently stroking the face of a loin. The two are shown as companions, theirs is a relationship of trust and control. The lion is the embodiment of human passions and desires. Left unchecked, the lion’s ferocity could spell the end for the Prince, but his compassion keeps the lion calm. Through focus and the application of inner strength, the Prince maintains control without the use of force or coercion. In its purest form, the strength arcana represents gaining victory over our lower urges.

This started off as a Virgil makeup practice, buuuuut then I liked it too much and skipped the under eye bags, lol.
Maybe someday I'll do it for real. Below are some gratuitous selfies.
I just needed some Wing AU content so I made some. I became the change I want to see in fan-content, lol.
Patton’s an adorable menace (Rock Pigeon)
Logan’s a curious menace (Magpie)
Virgil’s a parking lot menace (Starling)
Roman is a Screeching menace (Falcon)
Also ornathalogical side of tumblr please don’t roast me. I know the wing anatomy doesn’t match the coloring, but finding reference in these specific positions was HARD.
@thatsthat24 I’m super proud of this, so I’m actually gonna tag you for once.
If you are against BLM, you are unwelcome on my page.
If you support AllLivesMatter or BlueLivesMatter, you are not my friend.
If you think the riots are unjustified and irrational, unfollow me right now.
I am not black, but I support the black community all the way. I cannot possibly understand your pain or your suffering, but I'm with you. Now and forever.
I don’t know if many aspiring artists are following me, but there’s something I wish someone had told me when I was a young’n, so here we go.
If you feel like giving up because your drawings don’t look that way you want them to, Don’t actually give up. It’s easier to alter an existing picture than it is to create something from scratch! If you’re disappointed with your starting sketches, use them as guide. Keep the things you like, alter the things you don’t, but don’t just throw it away because it’s not perfect.
My starting sketches look NOTHING like my final pieces and I’ve been drawing for over a decade. Just look at my current favorite piece. It’s worlds away from the starting sketch.
Nine times out of ten your vision isn’t going to turn out perfect the first time you put pen to paper (or stylus to screen), but that doesn’t mean you should give up.
Revision is your friend.
My hand slipped... for like three days straight.
I very much enjoyed listening to Thomas sing Razzle Dazzle as Janus for the charity livestream. So now I’ve drawn this, lol.
