I think I’m gonna restart blogging my own shit.

WRITERS. ARTISTS. EDITORS.

REBLOG YOUR OWN WORK.

THERE IS NO SHAME IN IT.

And still there'd be people who'd not REBLOG this post

Look how instagram, twitter, and tiktok just RUINS social media culture for generations! Reblogging the same thing and to boost your work is not cringe but these social media companies made you think that way! Because of 'algorithm', no in this place we do it manually!

???

She absolutely thought that was gonna be some kind of sick fucking burn but it was not

Fandom Problem #4280:

"Grown men liking MLP are creepy and weird!"

Bitch, you're a grown-ass woman who posts about Bluey every other day, you ain't got no right to say which interests are "too young" for which people!

No, this fits more with the crowd back in 2013 who would constantly shame bronies for liking MLP but they themselves continue to sexualize Jack Frost and Hiccup

yeah, but also, never trust anyone who says you need to worship a guy who fucked a 9 year old and said the moon split in half on his command

Is the islamophobia really necessary?

My absolute favorite thing happening right now is terminally online people on twitter absolutely McLosing it over an animated japanese McDonals commercial featuring a young family

https://x.com/mcdonaldsjapan/status/1704420133140132045?s=46&t=V6TqJNM36lpGLWKXo4wS_Q

Apparently this is somehow offensive, because God forbid a commercial show a happy Mcfamily unit enjoying a McMeal together.

Remember your enemy truly hates children and families. And they will always hate you.

It's also terminally online people from all sides, not just wacko leftists. I've seen some 'libertarian' types nitpicking how the daughter is drawn, saying it's creepy that she's sitting on her dad's lap while her mom feeds her fries, accusing people who like the ad of being pedos.

It's time's like this that I am so happy to not be involved in this bullshit.

I'm looking at the tweets right now and it's ALSO attracting actual white supremacists/right wingers who are spewing homophobia/transphobia and portraying Japan like some conservative utopia.

Like this wholesome ad is causing people across the political spectrum to lose their damn minds and people just CANNOT be normal about it.

The Culture War's fucking up everyone's brains now, jesus...

We didn't gatekeep anime enough

Sometimes family is you (a 1000+ year old elf), your dead boyfriend, a drunk priest, said drunk priest's adopted daughter who wakes you up and dresses you every morning, a dwarven warrior, said dwarven warrior's apprentice who believes he's a coward despite all evidence to the contrary, and a completely different priest (this one loves milfs) who you haven't seen for 70 chapters because he's searching for his boyfriend.

"My childhood was so awesome. Kids today don't even know!"

Isn't a flex.

It's a lament.

More people should understand that.

Cereal boxes had toys inside.

Yes, it was a crass marketing for a sugar cereal made of chintzy plastic

Today you're just expected to eat Capn Crunch because that's what you do as a child, that's what breakfast looks like. Which is... fine, I guess. Sugar still tastes good. That's still a pleasure you're otherwise asked to disavow by the protein shake nutribottles advertised on podcasts.

But it also means the idle minor joy of getting a random toy present, as a reward for nothing, just because you exist, is stripped. That random spark of joy is gone, replaced with nothing.

Where did the public pool go? the neighborhood park? the atrium food court public place to gather?

Same thing. All of them were just replaced with nothing.

Kids today have many good things. But it shouldn't be a trade off. They should get to have instant messages with friends and go skating at the park. They should get to play amazing modern video games at home and go trick or treating for halloween. They should be able to have stickers and markers and macaroni art as well as youtube and streaming libraries and fortnite dances.

Fun should be allowed at every level.

Listen,listen I don’t even go here but I cannot unseen it. Please tell me someone else see the resemblance

This is the reason why I've been desperately looking for Kylo Ren footballer AU fics

is this fucking serious? this is so goddamn braindead. look at the way women in hollywood have been always treated

Women: call a 50-year-old actor “daddy”

Men: run countless websites of photoshopped child porn and countdown clocks so they know the absolute SECOND a famous child turns 18 so they can more openly obsess about all the graphic horrific sexual things they’d like to do to them because hey it’s legal now so you can’t tell them not to!!!

This article: these are the same!

and you know everyone’s gonna respond to this like “iMaGiNe If ThE rOLeS wErE rEvErSeD!!!1!”

Literally all of that applies to men. We, as a society, just dont care wgen it happens to them.

But good on you showing that you dont actually care about victims and feel threatened by men merely being included.

Aw, did someone threaten feminists' supposed victim monopoly with reality?

"IT JUST MEANS EEKWAULEETEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!1!111!"

we have to start ridiculing climbing mount everest the way we've ridiculed diving to the titanic there's no reason to be dying up there why dont you do a nice normal sport

Shitty take. Diving to the Titanic shouldn’t be ridiculed either as long as you have proper safety measures in place, and on the submarine. It’s a once-in-a-lifetime experience.

Okay. Have fun down there. Say hi to those other guys for us

In all seriousness though, Mount Everest is sacred to the Sherpa people who act as guides because of religious obligation, yet they have no official say over what is done with the mountain that has become covered in litter and corpses because of the tourism industry. These people repeatedly risk their lives because of the tourists and receive barely any recognition or respect for it, in fact just earlier this year a climber whose life was saved by his Sherpa guide blocked the guide on Instagram afterwards. We should absolutely be shaming people climbing Mount Everest.

Wow. Talk about attention to detail.

I will probably reblog this every time I see it on my dash because it’s absolutely stunning

This is literally insane. How did you have the patience. Tell me your secrets o’ art god.

ok!!! :0

Part of me is like “neat. Reblog,” and part of me is like “I understand now why impressionism took off, because there’s a 0% chance the artist wasn’t like ‘fuck this shit’ by the halfway point.”

folks you need to understand that the eradication of trained artists and designers is a much, much, much bigger threat to arts and culture than IP laws.

why do you think is it that every movie poster the same collage of a bunch of faces? why does every website made after 2015 look the same and rendered unusable by the same ugly pop ups? why does it keep getting harder to differentiate the apps on your phone? Why can't the back of the book just fucking tell you what the book is about?

look I'm a graphic designer. when I started studying design I had clear career goals. I spent like, thousands of hours on studying effective visual communication, psychology, history, grid systems, color theory, typography, print and digital design techniques, accessibility like whatever I believed would make me better at design I poured myself into it.

and within the span of like. five years maybe. 90% of design work disappeared. By the time I graduated there were basically no graphic designers. After 2012 Every company decided that design itself is trivial and true designers should know how to code. And manage social media. And do video editing. And copywrite. and this. and that. and. and. and. and as previous generations of visual designers and illustrators retired, the people who had the luxury of putting all their time into developing specific set of skills, they were replaced with tech grifters and designers who were forced to learn a dozen different skills and were at best mediocre at everything.

my job is not threatened by AI automation because it has already been ruined by automation through canva and bootstrap. and no one even tried to put a stop to it because good design is hard to understand and easy to imitate. so people started to imitate the visuals of previous good design and thought that was all there is to design. and after 10 years of copies of copies of copies we're all asking each other: "why does everything look the same"

now illustrators fear the same will happen to their field. and some of them want stricter copyright laws rights, because there is nothing else that can protect their work. "theft" is the only legal protection they have. and yeah, IP laws suck. but it's better for them to defend their labor using shoddy laws than not at all. and if you allow unimaginative grifters to displace artists from the few creative fields where they still work you won't even have a reason to worry about IP laws.

the ppg reboot is amazing in how universially loathed it is

tumblr hates it

4chan hates it

even reddit hates it

litetally nobody likes it

and CN has decided to bring us a new episode every day for two weeks

literally nobody wants this anymore and i can only imagine its decline in ratings

ahem: the new velma

It’s for our protection clearly

and just to really drive the point home

People really still don’t understand message boards work.

One of my coworker believes the FBI should have full reign on 4chan & 8chan, then kill all of the users. I’m like nah there are some genuinely good people on there. One of my favorite posts.

Ouch …..

There’s good stuff there too…

Problem is, these idiots only know of “4chan” from memes about /pol/, so they think it’s all that and nothing else…

ya - greentexts like the last one are truly heartwarming

anime is definitely gonna be irredeemable in another ten years if anime studios don’t start immediately banding together to stop all the bad porny fetishy pedophilic incest glorification male gaze filth that the current state of anime enthusiast culture is so bent on normalizing though

OP is talking some MAD SHIT from someone with a secret guro & scat fetish blog

If EVERY anime you encounter is like the ones you're describing, then maybe YOU'RE the problem for somehow constantly running into them in the first place!
