she did so much fucking work for that server and they unwhitelisted her, they iced her out of the discord, and then they proceeded to blatantly ignore her everytime she tried to get any updates on her status. she spent three weeks not knowing if she would get her job back, not knowing if she would get to keep playing on the server she loves with the people she loves. and eventually and understandably she quit because she couldn’t keep living in this limbo. and this whole fucking time while she was being ghosted, merch was being worked on with her character on it, who no one would give a single shit about if not for all the hard work she put in to bring that character alive. merch that they didn’t contact her about even ONCE

I'm doing research for a project on 1920-40s animation and can I just say, I hate disney so much and they shouldn't have come out on top

Nothing makes my blood boil quite like "progressives" who do shit like saying "men and masc people" to be more inclusive in the same breath as justifying kicking a broke student out of their flat in the middle of Winter.

Fucking racists really be spouting unhistorical bullshit about non-white civilizations in 2022 huh

So basically if ur Wi-Fi goes down while taking an exam with lockdown browser you can’t check your internet to get it back online because of the nature of the program, and if you can’t fix your Wi-Fi the program freezes and won’t save your answers or let you exit and you have to shut down your computer and hope your professor is merciful. Great program guys, really knocked it outta the park 👍🏻

Hey y'all! Chapter 9 of my original story "mundane believers" is now up on both wattpad and arts and OCs amino! Links to my accounts are in my carrd: EmmaSwagginz420.carrd.co

Y'know...there's something that's been pissing me off lately and i want to talk about it.

It honestly annoys me to no end when non-artists complain about animation memes and say they aren't "real" memes. Like, i get that it can be kinda annoying when you like, look up a song or just...the name of a typical meme on youtube and all the results are just animation memes, i get that. But the absolute LENGTHS some people go to hate on animation memes is just way too far! Like i've literally seen shitty, unfunny bait-and-switch memes where it's like, a sashley video or some shit and it cuts to some stupid fucking shit that's just hating on the animation meme for no real reason other than to just be a hater.

Plus....have you ever noticed that when people trash on animation memes, they ALWAYS choose the ones with anthro characters in suggestive situations and they just generalize the entire animation meme community and act like EVERY SINGLE animation meme is like that? Seems to me that they just hate furries and they're doing that on purpose because it feeds into their narrative that all furries are sex weirdos who want to fuck animals. And honestly, that's just fucking pathetic...imagine going to such huge lengths to hate on a group of people for just having a fucking hobby....

Also, i fucking hate how they ALWAYS say that animation memes aren't "real memes" when yes, they fucking are! THEY'RE CALLED ANIMATION *MEMES* BECAUSE THEY FOLLOW THE ORIGINAL DEFINITION OF THE WORD "MEME" BEFORE THE INTERNET BASTARDIZED IT TO HELL AND BACK!!!! Not to mention YOU GUYS LITERALLY ACCEPTED ANHKA ZONE, CARAMELLDANSEN, NYAN CAT, SHUBA DUCK AND THE TREASURE ISLAND WALK AS REAL MEMES!!!!

ANHKA ZONE IS JUST A NAKED ANIMAL CROSSING CHARACTER DANCING

CARAMELLDANSEN IS JUST 3 ANIME GIRLS DANCING

NYAN CAT IS JUST A POPTART CAT RUNNING THROUGH SPACE

SHUBA DUCK IS JUST A VTUBER DANCING WITH A DUCK

THE TREASURE ISLAND WALK IS JUST 3 CHARACTERS FROM AN OLD SLAVIC CARTOON WALKING IN A GOOFY WAY!!!

YOU GUYS LITERALLY CRITICIZE ANIMATION MEMES FOR JUST BEING FURRIES DANCING AND THEN ACT LIKE THE MEMES I JUST LISTED ARE THE BEST THING SINCE SLICED BREAD!!! And just to clarify: this isn't a diss on these memes (...okay maybe anhka zone, cause like....WE GET IT!!! YOU HAVE A PORN ADDICTION!!!) But ffs...if you're gonna hate on animation memes, at least hate on the mainstream memes too

Anyways, it's nice to get that out of my system...thanks for reading ig, on a lighter note: here's some art i made for my story "mundane believers" that i'd like to post here because i'm very proud of how it looks

The characters in this image are minni (the blonde one with the red tube top, she/her) and weedix (the green one with the vest, he/him)

Yes, weedix is based on a marijuana leaf...i made these characters when i was 11 and i thought it was funny, okay?

there goes my favorite drawing software ...

i defended their plans for the version2 and all, bc i didnt see much wrong with it and liked csp alot, but i guess i should have become a hater back then already

after that one big mistake that sparked so much outrage they really said but how can we actually lose EVERYONE, they saw deviantart doing it and thought BET I CAN DO IT FASTER

(they say they dont use user data but are basing it on stable diffusion of all things, they literally only ask people to think morally/ethically when using it to not use stolen stuff like thats ever worked with anything ever, plus "we cant guarantee that there will be no copyright infringement" OH YOU DONT SAY)

hey do u ever think about how crowley's eyes (a feature he's worked to hide nearly his entire time on earth) were fixated so so so firmly on aziraphale during the final fifteen, to the point where he followed the tiniest of movements, even as tears began to form in his waterline? even as his not-quite-human-heart was splintering in his chest?

CAUSE I DO

how was this permitted to be aired???? knowing full well that angsty queers like me would be sliding down the wall sobbing about it???? (also, if u want to read more about crowley and his eyes, i am once again recommending one of alex's metas: x)

anyway! full gif below the cut!

yippee!

“When she attended mental health one day and they said we can’t help you unless you’re going to hurt yourself or someone else she threatened to kill the mental health worker,” Harris said.

But instead of getting help suited to her needs, Stuckey was arrested and charged with two counts of uttering threats and mischief over $5,000.

At a hearing, Stuckey was denied bail and ordered to undergo a psychiatric assessment but because the nearest psychiatric hospital was full, she ended up at the Pine Grove Correctional Centre instead. She remained there for 36 days before being found not criminally responsible for her actions. She’s now in a psychiatric hospital until a provincial review board determines her fit for release.

I hope all cops go to hell and then die, and I also hope that every member of the sask government who gave the ok to cut funding to mental health services over the past few years also all goes to hell and then die.

36 days in jail, for being disabled and essentially making a cry for help.

Did you hear of the news?

I have. :(

Everyone else has their tributes so, here, a summary of my experience with Dragon Ball.

I was in fourth grade art class. A kid had the February 2005 issue of Shonen Jump, back when Shonen Jump was still physically printed here. I recognized Atem on the front cover because the Blockbuster around the corner from our house had DVDs (I think they were DVDs and not VHSs then since I distinctly remember it having a menu and special features) of some of the later episodes of Duelist Kingdom and my brother and I watched them on repeat. So I was like oh, hey, what's this? They make books of that stuff? I don't remember the conversation but the kid ended up giving me that issue, and I took it home with me.

There were a LOT of significant, groundwork things happening in that issue, now that I think about it. We were just beginning to see Sanji truly in action against Pearl. The Dark Tournament was in it's early stages still with Roto fucking around and finding out against Kurama. Sakura shears off her hair in a move that rearranged sexualities the world over. The reason Atem was on the cover was because Yu-Gi-Oh Millennium World was just debuting its first and second chapter. Bleach wasn't even serialized yet. And Dragon Ball, of course, was also there, about a hundred and fifty chapters ahead of everybody else.

Keep in mind that this was my first experience with manga, period. So my very first experience with Dragon Ball opened on this:

and ended on this:

Yeah. Truth be told, at the time Yu Yu Hakusho piqued my interest more than Dragon Ball (a guy fighting with plants? how creative!) but I never did forget these chapters. I thought the art style was so different from the others.

At some point after this, probably between several months and a year and a half, the TV happened to be on one evening when Toonami was airing Dragon Ball Z. Oh hey, I said, I recognize that art, I know those characters. So I hung around and watched some of episode 281. Two things about watching that episode stick with absolute crystal clarity in my mind to this day. Firstly: Buu choking Vegeta out with his arm freaked me the FUCK out as a child. I could not tell you why I had a fear reaction to it but hey, there you go. The second is this:

Specifically I remember 'You died once. If anything happens to you now, you won't exist anymore. There'll be nothing I can do to bring you back.' Not precisely word for word over the years, but Schemmel's tone of voice on this particular lineread. If I had to guess I'd say it was because at that point in my life, uh, death was kinda permanent? So wait, what do you mean died ONCE. Doesn't that apply to everyone?

This still wasn't enough to get me super invested in it though, it just didn't seem like something that would appeal to me that much. So a couple years go by, I don't think about it all that much, and then of course, TFS hits the scene and drops DBZ Abridged. So you know. As a shithead middle schooler with a shithead sense of humor I thought it was the best damn thing since sliced bread. (My biggest character flaw is that I still think a lot of Season 1 is genuinely funny)

And that was really the extent of my interaction with the franchise for the next several years. Say what you will about DBZA but they did manage to put it all together such that someone who had a nonexistent concept of what the original context was could grok it with not a lot of effort. Some time in high school, I think I was around 15, I decided to bite the bullet and read all the manga, as much to increase the funny factor of DBZA as sheerly for the sake of being able to say I had. Stick it to the other weebs, y'know. Now they can't say I didn't know anything about good anime. This was unfortunately at a time when all that was available online were dirty poor-quality scans and questionable translations, but read it I did. I went 'yep, that sure is about what I expected', and proceeded to get on with my life. GT came and went, I looked up and saw Battle of Gods coming out and went 'oh hey that's still a thing huh', kinda was peripherally aware of all the divisiveness of Super as it was happening, didn't really pay it much attention, just stuck to DBZA and quite a lot of wiki-ing.

And then, this time of year about three years ago now, in the middle of conversation with @prophecydungeon, Dragon Ball somehow came up. Something to do with 'Even though I'm not hugely into DBZ's story or whatever Toriyama does have some great character designs' (yes I was referring to Vegeta and Future Trunks at the time, no i will not stop being predictable, yes i am a parody of myself). They eventually brought up the DBS Broly movie and said, and i quote: 'that was a solid 1.5h of unbelievably fun and wacky animation'. Having seen the Gogeta vs Broly part of it on twitter and been like 'damn that animation's kinda off the hook actually, good for them good for them', my response was to be like. Oh word? I've got a spare hour and a half to kill, sure, fuck it, why not, time to watch DBS Broly.

I think that movie was precision crafted to hit me in the hyperfixation, if we're being honest. Opening on a solid 20 minutes of Lore and Worldbuilding and then having most of the rest of the runtime being mindless slobberknocker fun by way of some of the hardest animation flexes ever? I was done for.

In summation. I have been aware of Dragon Ball for a lot of my life, in that its presence was pervasive and enduring as I grew up. I may have been late to the game of actually wholeheartedly enjoying it, but enjoy it I do. Dragon Ball is the roots of a vast tree of anime, and in reading it I began to understand why that is. I respect it for that, and I love it for that. My current fixation may have shifted, but as far as time devoted to one individual thing goes... it took me a year and a half to watch my way through all of the anime and read all of the manga. ALL of it. So there's something good in there, I'd say.

oh my god someone just reblogged a post from me added a screenshot of my tags and added a comment that was so fucking rude. like. i get it was a post about the different ages of people on tumblr but im 36 years old im not even fucking middle aged yet????? and even if i was middle aged that’s not even old either!!!!! and even if i was “old” there’s no need to be fucking rude about it?????

Considering the parting of ways with Lily and KP, I guess you're not a mod in her discord server anymore?

Oh hell no. I dipped the moment KP pulled that shit and I haven't looked back.

Fun fact about all that btw

KP KNEW about all these 'allegations'. We literally talked about it in a podcast abuse and dedicated harassment. We went over how easy it is to rouse a 'trans woman bad' bandwagon, to the point where it's literally baked into the campaign promises of conservative politicians.

KP only gave a shit about these allegations when they got in the way of her slinging shit at VivziePop. And even before then, she only interacted with Lily insofar as it would boost her platform. Like she was nakedly transparent about that even then, but we let it slide.

But then after diminishing returns and randos on twitter slinging 'whataboutisms' at her over Vivzie, suddenly being associated with Lily was a liability. Nevermind the fact that the video made by those goons was taken down because their 'triumvirate' fell the fuck apart. Nevermind the fact that the person who made these accusations openly confessed to doing the same heinous shit but 'it's totally different'. It effected her PR and that's all she cares about.

She's a fucking flake who only considers what will further her career which was already diminishing long before all this.

If KP ever makes a video about my wife, you'll know she's only doing it to get attention and notoriety.
