How to Keep Doing Descriptions (from someone who does a fuckton)
Plain text: How to Keep Doing Descriptions (from someone who does a fuckton)
This is a list aimed mostly at helping people who already write IDs; for guides at learning how to do them yourself, check my accessibility and image description tags! I write this with close to two years of experience with IDs and chronic pain :)
Get used to writing some IDs by using both your phone and your computer, if you can! I find it easier to type long-form on my laptop, so I set up videos and long comics on my phone, which I then prop up against my laptop screen so I can easily reference the post without constantly scrolling or turning my head
I will never stop plugging onlineocr.net. I use it to ID everything from six-word tags to screenshots of long posts to even comic dialogue! On that last note, convertcase.net can convert text between all-caps, lowercase, sentence case, and title case, which is super helpful
Limit the number of drafts/posts-to-be-described you save. No, seriously. I never go above 10 undescribed drafts on any of my four blogs. It doesn’t have to be that low, but this has done wonders (italics: wonders) for my productivity and willingness to write IDs. If I ever get above that limit, even if it’s two or three more, I immediately either describe the lowest-effort post or purge some, and if I can't do that then I stop saving things to drafts no matter what. No exceptions! Sticking to this will make your life so much easier and less stressful
My pinned post has a link to a community doc of meme description templates!
Ask! For! Help! Please welcome to the stage the People’s Accessibility Server! It’s full of lovely people and organized into channels where you can request/volunteer descriptions and ask/answer questions
I make great use of voice-to-text and glide typing on my phone to save my hands some effort!
Something is always better than nothing!!! A short two-sentence or one-sentence ID is better than no ID at all. Take it easy :)
If you feel guilty about being unable to reblog amazing but undescribed art, try getting into the habit of replying to OP’s post to let them know you liked it! This makes me feel less pressured to ID absolutely everything I see
This is a sillier one, but I tag posts I describe as "described" and "described by me." When saving to drafts, I never preemptively tag with "described by me," since for some reason that always makes me feel extra pressure and extra stress. Consider doing something similar for yourself if that applies!
I frequently find myself looking at pieces of art which feel like they need to be considered for a bit before I can write an ID for them, and those usually get thrown into drafts, where the dread for writing a comprehensive ID just builds. Don’t do that! Instead, try just staying in the reblog field for a bit and focus on the most relevant aspects of the piece. Marinate on them for a little; don’t rush, but don’t spend more than a handful of seconds either. I find after that the art becomes way easier to describe than it initially seemed!
On that note, look for shortcuts that make IDs less taxing for you to do! For example, I only ever describe clothes in art if they're relevant to the piece; not doing that every time saves a lot of time and energy for me personally
Building off of that, consider excusing yourself from a particular kind of ID if you want to. Give yourself a free pass for 4chan posts, or fanart by an artist who does really good but really complex comics, whatever. Let it be someone else's responsibility and feel twice as proud about the work that you can now allot more energy to!
As always, make an effort to find and follow fellow describers! It’s always encouraging to get described posts on your dash, and I find that sometimes I'm happier to ID an undescribed post when the person who put it on my dash is a friend who tagged it with "no ID"
TL;DR: To make ID-writing less stressful and more low-effort, use different devices and software like onlineocr.net and voice-to-text, limit the amount of work you expect yourself to do, and reach out to artists and other describers!
#i have no idea if there's a real audience for this post but this is a genuine list of things i do to help myself out#i hope it can help someone else out too <3#accessibility#image descriptions#my posts#kay talks#long post#this has been in my drafts for so long i'm exiling it because i can't stand wondering if it's coherent any longer

Anyways
You didn't specify so I'm going to list all my mutuals in the order of oldest to newest on my following page that I remember sorry of I missed anyone and for the @ s
*inhales*
@e-the-village-cryptid (I don't have a tag for e yet but it would probably just be E)
Not only the first person who I became friends with here but also the first one I ever started sharing my stories with, even if we don't talk too much I'm glad Every time we do and I see them on my dash, (they bring some of my favorite posts and when I do send posts sometimes I mix up and send them their own reblogs) I'm so glad we're still friends, thanks for letting me ramble about stuff for 6 hours hehe
@jaqofallgenders (no tag for jaq yet either)
my in person friend and the longest friendship I've ever had with someone, love you 🫶. I'll be more specific on Monday if our ADHD doesn't kick in and make us both forget

Hi hi hi yellows my friend 👋 the person I consider to be the second ever friend I made on here, a lovely person as well and wait waaa and an amazing artist too 👀??? Love you silly goofball and the amazing posts and jokes you have we should chat more often I thinkith.
@rabid-mercenary16 (Rabid jumpscare)
Hey hey hey .... BWAMP! Hope you feel better soon
I probably have the most to say about Rabid but all try to make it a bit shorter. besides being the first artist to do art jokes and include me, with we also became mutuals and interacting around a time when my life started to get a lot better. Even if she's not the only factor in that I definitely associate her with stuff improving, and she did play a big factor in it (I already explained a lot on my Valentine's Day gift to her and the others). Also she's just an awesome person to spend time with and be goofy, amazing sense of humor and I just love being friends with such an awesome person and artist.
@dia-smthidk (Dia fren)
I'm assuming you don't want a bowl of soup
I also said a lot about them in my Valentine's Day gift, but we've become closer friends sense then even if we don't get to chat as much as I'd like to. I relate a lot and am surprised how we have so much in common. Amazing artist and person as well and I wish we could hang out more, idc if they think they're bringing down the mood when/if they bring stuff up about irl, and maybe I won't figure out their timezone but oh well, please take care of yourself gender sibling.

Bun deserves the world and they keep sending me opposum images!!! Gona die from cuteness and his kindness one of these days istg
@spookykittyzzz (greaah why don't I have a tag for you???)
A very kind person and artist I don't know too much sense we're not that close yet but love the few chats we have had so far. Hope we get to hang out more even if I'm awful at reaching out to others and saying hi.
@glitchyk (goop buddies)!!
Nooo the parallels
One of the first people who was interested to deep dive into my creations and ask about my stories and worlds They're probably competing with Rabid with how much I have to say about her/silly. Seriously it's incredible how much we have in common and now I get to share and collaborate our sonas stories together it's amazing. And as someone once said "you can yap for hours". I love how creative and clever they are, I just wish they would be kinder to herself. One day I'll make glichy see how awesome she is.
@unfunnyaceartist (Floridian disadvantage) I feel like I should change that
When I say I was shookith when ace asked to be friends I mean I was shookith first person so show up and ask that (the others kinda just happened). Amazing artist and don't believe her lies she is funny. I'm so heckn glad we're friends., love the goofy and silly idc if she's a bit of a simp they've helped me a lot start to understand slang and references I'm supposed to understand shhshsh (such is the curse of how I grew up) we need to make our mafia sonas interact at some point I can already imagine the chaos /silly
@neptunestoast (plushy slime)
Hugs hugs hugs*
Trying my best not to baby talk I swear. amazing person first person to show up and be like "hey I Wana do something for you and your friends". Love their humor and another gender sibling!!! Hugs for ever for as long as they're ok with it. I love their creativity as well and Noodle is so adorable. I just want to pick them up in a hug so much. Kibbity/silly
@ner5y (no tag woops ill figure something out)
What are you doing here??? How are we friends???
I was absolutely confused and startled when they followed me especially since it was during a spoons argument . Amazing artist like holy heck I wish I was allowed to curse on this blog. Their humor also took me by surprise when I got invited to the discord, and even if they doubt how well they're running it I think they're doing amazing. And I love our silly interactions like this one
@vexation-816 (chaotic ADHD buddy!!!)
Why did it take me so long to follow you istg
ADHD ADHD ADHD my buddy oh pal we both got that and it's driving us insane/silly. Love how creative he is and the ideas for his sona and character lore. Also one of the first people who shared a character they added to my nightlight au. This is getting twords the end and I'm tired of whiting so much and am on a timer oh no. But your amazing dude don't ever forget thag
@butlerbugbunny (anxiety bunny buddy)

2020s Industrial/EBM & Friends
Hi all! I decided to go ahead and make a Spotify playlist of current artists in the industrial/EBM [and adjacent] scene. I am very tired of stumbling onto countless threads of people saying that industrial music is "dead." It is in fact currently experiencing an incredible booming renaissance! So here is a place where one could hopefully get started.
The requirements for this playlist are simply
Must be within the industrial/EBM scene or close enough to count by my own standards. Trying to avoid anything too far off, so keeping "sibling" genres to a minimum (for example, darkwave or aggrotech), but obviously the genre has evolved very much over the decades and there is still plenty of fusion and diversity in sound!
Must have released new music since 2020 or onwards. This playlist is a combination of older artists who are continuing to release new music (such as PIG and IAMX) as well as brand new artists who have just begun their career with debut EPs (such as Normal Bias and FUEDAL). The only requirement is making new music from 2020 to present; this isn't about new bands per se, just currently active ones. I would like to keep updating this playlist as time goes on and more artists release new work, but that may end up being a time commitment larger than I can promise, so no guarantee on that. But hopefully!
One song per band. This is just to keep things consistent. I wanted to pick a song for each band that's either somewhat popular so as to give an idea of what they're doing that's catching people's attention, and/or a personal preference of my own that I think is cool and worth checking out, lol. Order doesn't matter at all, you can shuffle it as much as you like.
While artists from all backgrounds are featured and I want to make an active effort not to tokenize, I did try to include a wide range of diverse artists, with numerous artists of color, female artists, queer artists, neurodivergent artists, etc on this list.
A few other preemptive Q&As:
"[x] band I like isn't on here!"
I am absolutely, 100% confident I have missed more bands than I can even fathom, this is a massive genre and this playlist is in no way whatsoever meant to be comprehensive. I definitely want this playlist to continue to evolve over time. I also admittedly may have not included a band because I just don't really personally care for them enough, or because I didn't feel like they quite fit the sound I was thinking of here. Feel free to send me an ask if you feel like I'm missing something important, and even if I'm not huge on a band, if it seems like they're high in demand I might add them for posterity, lol.
"[x] band isn't real industrial"
Again, this genre has evolved massively since its formation in the 70s. We all know that. I don't really care about splitting hairs too much when it comes to genres; I'm basing this on the scene as it's currently evolved, the community surrounding it (including who these bands play with and the festivals booking them), the cited inspirations and self identification of the bands themselves, and if I personally would be able to sleep at night if I called them industrial in casual conversation, LMAO. I also consider fusion genres a very important part of the life and evolution of a genre, so industrial hip hop, industrial metal, and the likes all make some appearances.
"Spotify sucks"
Yeah. Agreed entirely, cannot argue with you there. But this is the easiest avenue I know of to make a decent, accessible playlist for a wide variety of listeners. Please do check out these artists offsite, follow them on Bandcamp or their other social media sites, buy their music and merch, etc. Unfortunately this also means that many artists who are not on Spotify aren't featured here, which sucks, since there are some absolutely amazing industrial bands coming out of Bandcamp right now who deserve recognition. Here is a link to the "industrial" tag on Bandcamp if you want to dive deeper.
Hopefully at least a few people can get something out of this!!

i hope it's okay if i send you this but i'm pretty new to the f1 side of tumblr and don't really know the ins and outs yet and you're literally the first blog i came across and you seem really popular and talented so i thought i'd ask you for some blog recommendations? and maybe you'd know if there's any like fandom etiquette one should follow on f1 tumblr that's different from general tumblr etiquette because i know some fandoms have some extra unspoken rules and all that
Hi nonnie ofc it's okay!! so here's:
kyle, princemick's beginners guide to f1blr!
basic rules to f1blr:
please always tag any kind of crash, they happen, theyre scary please remember to tag them with 'crash tw'
don't cross tag keep the right drivers in the right tags, we dont wanna see max in the ferrari tag or charles in the merc tag etc
tag your hate with 'anti *insert driver*' (use first name not both first and last so it doesnt show up in the main tags) and don't go looking in those tags for ur fav just to defend them that's annoying ass hell
basic things to remember:
rpf is very likely to happen, if you dont enjoy it no worries to blacklist or not follow people who are active in it BUT rpf does happen a lot casually as jokes etc so dont take it to seriously
everyone has their favs and critize everyone, the block and unfollow button is right there, its still sport. curate your own experience.
NOW kyle's blog rec list below the cut!
go and support and show some love, they're all incredible creators and organized by fav driver/genre of content so please take some time to check them out!! (tried to explain what they mostly do but some just rb and post so ajksdb theyre still all amazing though)
a lot of these are also mixed in who they support, I put them in the catagory of people I identify them w most.
also tumblr is a dick so has a tag limit which means half of these are links so there are a bunch of people in here who didnt get a notif that they're in this post, so rip.
FIRST OFF follow my most beloveds @milflewis and @yeericcihaw theyre two of the most important people in my life who are on their own incredible creators, niamh is an incredible writer and fran a wonderful gif maker. both of them make tumblr so so much better for me and I love them dearly

if you get this answer with your top 5 music artists and send it to the last 7 people in your notifications <3
Ahh I'm so happy! You're my first question 🥺😭💕
Well I'm also a bit embarrassed, tbh I love music but I'm not usually the kind of person who focus on artists rather just the songs because I'm a writer and music helps me to find styles for my characters, so I tend to listen different styles and artists in a way I became obsessed with finding different songs that speak to me and my characters, that's how I fell in love with country, jazz, blues and bossa-nova... anyway I'll try my best, but I'm choosing based on how much influence they had on my persona, not the frequency I listen to them, or them becoming top 1, because the most important reason to be an artist is not to sell (which yeah it's important duh 🙄 😂) but to touch souls and hearts and they did it with mine so, here we go:
*not necessarily in the following order
1. Taylor Swift
I'm obsessed with her, her style, her lyrics, her easter eggs. Her videos, everything. She's gorgeous and I'm kinda glad I decided to listen to her songs cause they're amazing.
2. Christina Aguilera
Especially obsessed with her Burlesque era, but tbh I just love her voice, and I've loved her since I was 3 or 4 years old so, that's a long time... and she's the one who inspired me to dance and sing.
3. IU
Have you heard her? I love her lyrics and music, also I love the way her roles on several kdramas, she's so sweet and I really like her. Besides, we're from the same month. I'm May 10 and she's May 16, do I need to say more? 😍 She inspires me.
4. Mili (japanese band)
I just started to fall in love with them because of a fanfic, but... they need more fans. Seriously underrated. Great artists. Listen to Bathtub Mermaid.
5. Avril Lavigne
My list wouldn't be complete without her. Like, yes, I have others, Nirvana, Simple Plan, and much more but Avril Lavigne would be the first I felt so identified with in a moment where no one else could have... Thanks to her lyrics I fought and won, and now I'm alive.
Last seven people on my notifications:
Please don't bother to reply if you don't want to lol (some people don't like to be tagged and I don't want to bother the if that's the case, so I apologize in advance but y'all just happened to be there.) But thank you for being on my notifications otherwise I would feel like crying because I have no one to tag. So, thanks to your existence, I'm not crying lol
@succubusxhoney
@trojanforce
@dragonflea
@ookidigatto
@veneratelust
@nymphesd
@bl00000g
Also, thanks for the question @jiabae ☺️💕 you made me really happy.

A warm welcome to all fellow bxg/turtles who are coming from other social media! I have prepared you all a gift (especially for baby turtles!) and also decided to properly introduce myself to this fandom 💛
The Tumblr yizhan fandom had always been peaceful and is a peaceful place for fans of both gg and dd. From my experience, which is a bit limited (I tended to keep my interest in all things gg and dd offline and with my friends), this place had and has far less trouble than the Twitter fandom. I had always advocated for peace and to not engage antis so my advice to you is to curate your space and spare yourselves needless headaches by avoiding them entirely. We are fans of both gg and dd and that's all that matters.
Pay attention to tags because unlike Twitter, Tumblr heavily depends on tags. My advice to you is to follow tags that are of interest to you and to locate fellow bxg within them.
I've been keeping a list of background (ent. industry/politics/culture) posts for newcomers to yizhan. I am somewhat a person who tends to archive a lot of things and keep them organized and available at all times. I hadn't really kept my archive up to date (2022 is a busy year for me) but I hope you'll find the following posts helpful!
Older:
Dangai 101 phenomenon
Is it reasonable to blame gg or dd for the behavior of antis?
Breaking the CP (Couple)
The Cultural Context
How does shipping them openly affect them?
BJB to criminalize “soft violence”
CP competition (Why must the supertopic be Num.1?)
Regarding dd being hated on because of CQL
Fandom Talk (post 227)
gg going through a rebrand?
CCTV Reporting on Homosexuality: 2005-2017
The bitter relationship between solo fans and cpf
Regarding CQL and BL

The people these posts come from have been my favorite posters in this fandom and my "go to source" even back when I was a baby turtle in 2020.
If you're totally new and are looking for a good place to start with these two then you can check the timeline compiled here (or over here) as well as check out:

A bit more about me: I just recently made this blog more ggdd-oriented but have been a fan of these two since late 2020. I'm an older turtle that had kept an eye on both of them yet had decided to essentially resurrect this old blog of mine and make it more ggdd-oriented. I will be here to stay as their fan (even if I get a bit busy) because I realized that connecting with fellow bxg outside of the friends I talk with would be a welcoming experience. I love them both equally and a lot (I share passions with both gg and dd; art, racing, dancing, etc.) and if you decide to follow me, I post under the "ragt speaks" tag where I'll either fawn over them separately or talk about candy. If you have any questions (be it that you're looking for something, want to get to know me more, want my opinion on certain topics, etc.) please feel free to ask me!
A few facts about me are that I have been learning Chinese for three years now (very slowly progressing but getting there), that I'm a lesbian, heavily into poetry, art and dramas.
Again, a warm welcome to all of you! It always fills me with joy to see new fans of both gg and dd since they're amazing! I also hope I'll be able to connect to as many bxg/turtles as possible. 💛

just a random guy who really loves your art. i noticed you made the cute doodle asking peeps to reblog your art and i just wanted to share why i dont? i really love your art and i absolutely wanna reblog it but im a songxue shipper and lowkey you seem kinda grossed out by that ship. which is totally oki, i know its not everyones cup of tea, but sometimes it seems like you'd be offended if a shipper reblogged your art i guess? and i dont rlly wanna bug you, i love your art and i adore your content. i think your likes and dislikes are valid as hell and you're totally allowed to have them. i just wanted to say that i do want to rb your stuff and i do love your stuff and im sorry im not supporting your art in that way, i just really didnt want to cross your boundaries. thank you for sharing your art and drawing so much of the guys (they're my blorbos, thats why i ship them and you're basically the only person who draws them ic imo). you're a wonderful artist and your art regularly impresses the hell out of me. your sense of humor, expressiveness, color pallet, creativity, and just plain Skill are all so freaking amazing and you deserve accolades. im sorry for being a weirdo who likes one of your squick ships but your art is fabulous. maybe i'll make a sideblog where i hide my ship tendencies and just rb you a lot there, you deserve the support :)
hey now,,, this is very sweet lkdhlkh and i really appreciate it + am glad you enjoy my art so much and think it's in character LOL i know i make things that are completely silly and absurd so it fascinates me (in a good way) that it's still seen as in character
also thank you so much for reaching out, i've been having a really rough time (depression! YAY) and honestly didn't expect anyone to say anything ;; (which is totally fine, people don't need to say anything! but it feels really good to be acknowledged)
i guess i'll take this as an opportunity to address this in general! i don't mind if people ship something i don't like/a notp as long as they're not making me engage with it, i don't track people down at gunpoint like HEY SHIPPER SAW YOU TOUCHED MY ART! no! all i ask is people don't /tag/ my art as whatever if i don't want it tagged as such (and don't ramble on about ship ideas in there either lol please), but i'm making an effort to make that obvious in the body of the post itself :) lots of my friends/followers ship things i don't and we coexist just fine!
but as for your ship, i've made mention to it a few times i think that it doesn't really bother me that much! in fact, the more i draw them together, the more chill i am with people taking away whichever kind of interactions they want from my art of them! they're my blorbos too and i love drawing them together, and although sometimes i am explicit about not wanting them tagged as a ship (so like, if they're drawn as family, xy is a child and sl is not for instance, lol), and sometimes i wish not everything were seen as shippy, it's very unreasonable i think for me to expect people not to see it that way. does that make sense? that's why someone requested i tag it a certain way so they wouldn't have to see it anyway OTL
anyway, you're totally fine! if you want to reblog it go right ahead, and if you wanna slap that tag on it, go ahead too (WITHIN REASON, see above). it's the other ostensibly more popular xue yang ship that i'd rather not get wrapped up in, haha
don't hide who you are! don't try and bottle things up for the sake of making someone else feel better. i've been doing that for too long and regret it immensely. maybe this year i'll finally put that to rest too
#the big secret here is that mostly any negative reaction to it i have is when it feels Mean#i cannot stand people being Mean to song lan that is my man#songxue#for blacklist ily shin mwah mwah#shin dont look

shit i never made an introduction did i?
Name's Fritz and I go by he/him. 23 and currently reside in the Sinnoh region. Nothing too interesting about me but... I dunno I have cool Pokémon. I used to travel a lot so I have some mons from different regions. Getting Grim was an interesting story...

Xander the Zangoose ♂︎
Noodle the Seviper ♀︎
Grim the Zorua ♂︎
COSTCO HOTDOG the Eevee ♀︎

((ooc under cut))
PFP WAS CREATED BY @fishbraiinzz AKA THE PERSON BEHIND @punk-rawk-pkmn !!! GO FOLLOW THEM!!! THEIR ART IS AMAZING
Blanket unreality trigger warning for this entire blog. This is a roleplay blog pretending Pokémon are real. I suggest blocking this account or the tag "pokemon irl" if this blog triggers anything for you.
ANYWAY

PLEASE NOTE that all likes and follows from this blog is out of character. Mostly, at least. I follow people I interact with a lot and like their posts because I wanna support them! Too lazy to log into my other acc to like it, so, y'know. Why not do it with this one?
All reblogs, however, are in-character unless specified otherwise. Ex: #ooc reblog. Same goes for posts and asks. Ex: #ooc post; #ooc ask. All in-character posts will be tagged with #turtwig posting and all in-character reblogs will be tagged with #turtwig reblogs. (In-character asks are tagged as #turtwig asks.)

Well I think that's all. Enjoy my silly Pokeblog!

Sharing an incredible fucking artist, What an honour that is ❤️
I would love to introduce you all to one of my best friends @error-silence aka an absolutely INCREDIBLE ARTIST!
Their perspective on art is so unique. They put so much time and effort into their art, Because they're genuinely so passionate about what they do and it shows! Down to every detail, When you're admiring a piece of their art there is always more and more and more to look at, appreciate and discover. And that is pretty fucking special.
So it would mean the absolute world to them if you would follow their Tumblr (as tagged above), Instagram ( https://instagram.com/errorsilence?igshid=MDM4ZDc5MmU= ) or their incredible DeviantArt! All fall under the same name of errorsilence no matter where you go! ✨
They really do deserve so much more love and recognition for their art than they're getting right now! So if you're able to and enjoy their incredible art, Please continue to spread the word of this aspiring artist! They're such a great person who devotes so much to their art, Their passions and loves to make other people happy with their art (and would love to start commissioning once they're in a position to do so!) While still expressing themself so amazingly!
I know I don't have many follows, But the people that do follow me (And the huge ass Thot I feel like with all these porn bots) will appreciate, are amazing people and understand trying to share some fucking incredible talent ❤️
Thank you incredible people 💗

HELLO WHUMP COMMUNITY.
A GREMLIN IS FINALLY COMING OUT OF THEIR LITTLE CAVE AND THAT GREMLIN IS ME
so hi there and welcome to my INTRO POST!
(despite having tumbr for years, i still suck at post formatting so please bear with me dkdhj)
I'm a person of many names, but for the sake of brevity I'll give you three
feel free to call me Yeehaw, Void or Isaac, whichever you prefer
I go mainly by they/them
English isn't my first language so please be patient with the occasional grammatical mistakes jdldjdldjdkdh
This is my main, chaotic blog where I'll reblog and try to post whump along with lots of stuff about my ocs and some other things.
For a bit about me: I am a writer, an artist, and a long time fan of whump. Ever since i was a wee child i found great joy in brewing up dark scenarios in my little mind to hurt the fictional people i made. And so i continued and now, here we are.
ONTO THE CREATIVE INFO!
(and buckle your seatbelts, this will be a long ride)
My favorite tropes:
i adore anything to do with dehumanization, which is why pet whump is one of my favorites! Nonhuman characters are very much my bread and butter, be them whumpers, caretakers or whumpees. That brings us to vampires in specific. I love those. mwah perfect. i also love creepy and intimate whumpers ohooo yes.
i like to see my whumpees break. i like my whumpees terrified. i like watching the last shreds of hope be ripped away from them and see how they scream and cry because what did they do to deserve this? BUUT i also like a hardy defiant whumpee who instead of breaking, snaps. and oh the desire for revenge... delightful. i like many things dkhdkdjd
gore, torture, kidnapping, lab and medical whump, restraints, heavy conditioning, the "damned if you do damned if you don't" trope, illness whump, all of those are absolute FAVORITES of mine
when it comes to comfort, i like seeing the recovery process, eg: a heavily conditioned and traumatized whumpee slowly learning that life isn't all pain. oh yesssss. i enjoy comfort and specks of hope being granted just before overwhelming torture strikes. it's about the contrast
when it comes to squicks, i don't really have a need to list them. i simply Dont Look at what makes me too uncomfortable once i find it so as long as a work has its themes properly tagged, it's all fine and dandy :D
I have a fuckton of ocs. might just make a big ole post cataloging all of them and let people send in asks requesting an oc and a prompt, who knows!
I have many ideas but it's hard to organize them so expect random disorganized idea dumps every now and them (voidrambles? maybe)
I'll also post lots of art, mostly oc drawings and some whumpy ideas!
AND FEEL FREE TO SEND ME ASKS!!! i love interacting and i promise i dont bite im just shy
MAIN STORY:
My main wip still doesn't have a proper name so I've been calling it the "wolf and rabbit story". It's mostly a recovery story that takes place in a world where hybrids, humans with animal characteristics, are mistreated and oppressed by most governments at large, and as such often end up becoming pets (i still gotta organize this worldbuilding *sobs*). The story follows Aleksei, a wolf hybrid who escaped the system and is now a citizen, and Vincent, a pet rabbit hybrid who ran away from his old master and is now living as a stray. Well, was living as a stray, untill Aleksei found him bleeding on the streets and made the impulse decision to take the rabbit in. Features lots of caretaking and comfort and past trauma and that wip is my baby basically.
if you've read up until this point, thank you! now it's time to play tag
(if anyone tagged here wants me to remove the tag, please let me know)
here are the main blogs which inspired me to write whump and dive into this lovely community! they're all amazing and i recommend checking them out!
@just-a-whumping-racoon-with-wifi was the first whump blog i saw! Her Tool series just awoke something deep in my heart and i haven't stopped since
@whumpster-dumpster 's delightful prompts have carried me through many a writer's block!
@wumpzone was the blog which actually inspired me to start my wip! her stories are all worth checking out they're so good
@whumpsday 's kane and jim series is just UGH PERFECT it sparks so much joy all their blog sparks joy
and @whumpshaped is the one who gave me the last push i needed to finally post this! (thank you whumpshaped of the lake <3) its writing and drabbles are all perfect and amazing and i love it all (devil hot.... my beloved) go check it out!
and i think this is basically it, folks.
if there's anything i should change around for more clarity, please do tell
and thanks for listening to my whump intro!!
have a good earth rotation :D

hey for the noob, what's a repost? why are they bad? what's the diff btwn 'reblog' and 'repost'?
thx for explaining!
Howdy!!
I'm glad you asked!
Basically, a repost/art repost is when someone posts a piece of artwork they didn't create and then posts it on their own account, usually without crediting the original artist. This often makes it look like the person who reposted it IS the original artist, and any attention, likes, reblogs, followers, etc., all go to the reposter, instead of the artist who actually created the piece.
Example 1: I go on Pinterest and I find a piece of artwork and I go OH WOW THAT'S PRETTY I NEED TO SHOW EVERYONE I'VE EVER MET so I download the piece of art work, make a brand new tumblr post, put the art in that post, and go HEY LOOK AT THIS ART.
Example 1 is a repost.
A reblog, on the other hand, is basic Tumblr functionality in which any old blogger hits the "reblog" button and kinda..."passes forward" from the original poster. When you reblog a creator's work, they still get the notes, followers, etc. - it's still clear that they're the person who actually created the piece of artwork.
Example 2: I'm scrolling my dashboard and I see someone with username person12345 say, HEY EVERYONE I MADE AN ART DO YOU LIKE IT? And I think to myself, YES I DO, so I hit the reblog button.
Generally speaking, reposts are *highly* frowned upon and considered extremely rude. If you didn't make something yourself, don't post it unless you have express permission OR the original creator has something like "Reposts allowed" on their account (which is rare but does happen. Even an authorized repost should always have credit to the original creator attached to it; "Credit to the owner" is not credit. The reasoning is that, firstly, artists put a fuckton of work into what they create, so for someone to just take it post it somewhere else is kinda fucked (like, imagine if someone did that with a fanfic!). Secondly, a lot of artists rely on sales to their shops, commissions, etc., to get income - but when work is reposted without naming them or without linking them, they lose out on all of that.
Reposting on this website ranges from completely innocent "oh oops I didn't realize that wasn't nice" all the way through intentional attempts at theft/taking credit from original creators. If I had a nickle for every time someone called me a bitch, asshole, or crusader for suggesting they not repost, I'd be able to buy, like...dinner.
Generally speaking, posting work you DID make yourself is awesome, as is reblogging from artists who post their own work.
I could go into a LOT more about this, but tbh it'd kinda be reinventing the wheel. Instead, lemme grab some existing resources that can add more information to this, if you want to know more.
@dont-repost-art is a cool account dedicated to spreading information about why reposting is bad. It's not really active anymore but if you just scroll through what they've reblogged in the past you'll still get some good info.
How to Spot Art Reposts: a long post I wrote a bit ago, discussing art reposting, why it's bad, and how to recognize signs that piece might be a repost, with an emphasis on danmei fandoms on Tumblr.
Flow Chart: Can I Post This Fanart?
Really everything in the tumblr search "art reposting" which is full of artists being upset about people reposting their work....kinda says it all
FINAL NOTE: When an artist says "do not repost" they do NOT mean "do not reblog." Please, please reblog artist work, if you like it. Creators are what make this site so amazing, and when their work doesn't get much love, creators get discouraged and don't want to keep creating. When people steal their work without crediting them, they don't want to keep creating. When people treat them like art-producing machines, they don't want to keep creating. NOT reposting, and ACTIVELY reblogging (with a healthy side dose of "saying nice things in the tags") is a great, small, easy way that every single fan on this site can help creators fell all warm and happy and like they should keep making things.
Hope this helps!

This beautiful modern take on the boys is by Sayuri527
Don’t the boys look gorgeous? I really love how Eskel looks and the way the artist echoed his usual armor in the shirt he’s wearing.
There is a ton more gorgeous work by the artist, all sorts of fandoms. Just be warned, some of it is beautifully naughty.

Absolutely sweet and beautiful image of our favourite Goat Dad, that I can’t find the original artist for. But look at that gorgeous little goat face!
Edit: A big thank you to @ana-kagetsu for messaging me and pointing me in the direction of this awesome artist. Please go check out their other great art on DeviantArt!

Get your Tumblr 2021 Year in Review →
Just a HUGE thank you to everyone that has followed and commented this year. I started this a year ago (anniversary popped up earlier this week!) because I kept seeing awesome Eskel art and wanted to collate it all in one place for my and other people's enjoyment. You've all been really awesome and I can't thank you all enough for loving this character as much as I do, as well as putting up with the other random bits thrown in. Onto a new year and hopefully more amazing art and stories from everyone!! <3
BTW, it's really awesome to see which images were everyone's faves this year. I totally don't blame ANYONE for that number 1! *wipes chin*

About that transphobic artist you fought against, do you mind telling us their blog's name? Or DMing it to those who ask? I just want to make sure I don't support their work by giving a like, reblogging or following them.
Also, because you mentioned Yamato, I'd like to know what's your take on Kaido respecting the fact that Yamato identifies as a man (and calling him his son), but not as Kozuki Oden? I mean it's nice from Kaido to respect his son, but I can't help thinking it's a bit contradictory... And I have to admit that sometimes I wonder if Yamato identifies himself as Kozuki Oden and his symbol, what he represents, more than as just a man. Like if Oden didn't exist, would it change something? I really hope Oda will develop Kaido and Yamato's relationship a bit more in the future. Or maybe it's already developed and I missed it? 🤔
Sure, no problem!
They have protected account, so it's not very likely you'll stumble upon them on twitter, but they also have pixiv and are/were quite active in zolaw tag, so you might see them there.
Btw, please do check the op who tweeted about Kiku - @/peqchessss, they're also here on tumblr - their stuff is amazing!
Anyway, that's the bitch (my bitching not included, blocked them before screenshoting the whole deal):
And regarding Kaido-Yamato stuff, under the cut and warning for info revealed in chapter 1044:
For a long time Kaido agreeing to call Yamato son but refusing to accept his identity as Oden was my main "!!" regarding Yamato's gender. I mean, if the whole identity thing was about Oden, Kaido would stubbornly misgender him, right?
It's a bit...hard to say what Yamato exactly means when saying he's Oden, but 1) he keeps identifying as a man even when identifying as Yamato 2) kinning and trans identity is often corelated 3) getting inspired/wanting to be like a person of certain gender is an impulse for many trans people to discover they're trans. I'm an example here, ironically thanks to Yamato, who's story was like the last push towards the final identity decision. I mean, a person talking about himself as a man but not going through any kind of transition process, not showing dysphoria? So, it is possible, huh...
Of course, it's not that Yamato transed my gender lol It was a long process. Sometimes you need this last puzzle tho, yknow?
Anyway, unless Yamato explains himself in details-or if Oda gives us a detailed off-screen explaination, better than some half-assed word thrown somewhere in vivre cards-then we can't say for sure what he means :/ What is sure are pronouns he uses, since it's explicitly stated in manga. Be like Luffy, it's Yama-bro, not Yama-gal owo
BUT since we got some new info regarding Joyboy, Nika and Luffy's Devil Fruit, I have a slight feeling the reason why Kaido accepted Yamato's "dad I'm a boy" so easily is exactly because of, well, Joyboy. We know that he failed becoming Joyboy, we know he was imprisoned by WG for the sake of lineage factor research, we know he got interest in the changing world factor around time when he was imprisoned - and when he freed King, to flee together, we know that Momo's DF was made out of Kaido's original and that Vegapunk dropped the project claiming it as "a failure", we know Kaido's obsession with getting Zoan Fruits, reaching as far as buying questionable, mostly broken shit from Doflamingo, we know Kaido's obsession with keeping Yamato under arrest - at the same time letting him train and get stronger (and iirc, even fighting with him, after all, this is how one trains haki).
I have a feeling Kaido, once being sure he's not Joyboy and can never be, tried to make Joyboy out of Yamato, either Yamato liked it, or knew about it, or not.
Of course, it's just a theory, the same as my suspicion that Vegapunk's and WG's goal was to copy/create artificial Nika fruit - that eventually lead to project being picked up by Caesar and turned into SMILE production.
