Okay So Once I Was Basically Tricked Into Saying I’d Out With A Friend, And Since I Didn’t Know How

Please understand that you can open up, some people may not understand, but others will. Others care, others love you, please open up don’t keep it locked away.

Take care of your needs.

wheres all the support for the emotional abuse victims

As someone who uses fandoms as a coping mechanism, this is unacceptable behavior. You know that when you re blog the op gets a notification. Not everyone wants to get your nsfw fanfic in their notifications. There are safe spaces for creating such content, the reboots of a person post about their own life is not it.

Please use the proper spaces for fandom content. It’s literally so easy to not make unsuspecting people uncomfortable.

some of you are so entrenched in fandom that it’s genuinely damaged the way you even casually interact with others, especially strangers

like i need you to understand how incredibly inappropriate and abnormal it is for your immediate reaction to someone’s personal post to be “i should tag this and make it about my OTPs and headcanons” or “this is a fanfiction prompt”

Why do people listen to the advice of those wannabe ‘writers’. I mean they are not even published? 

Im froyo in a cup

I’m waffle

Everyone!! After years and years, Paint Tool SAI is finally getting an upgrade! Go try the Paint Tool SAI 2 beta! 

Just a few of the new features:

64 bit/multi-core support

Font tool with text layers

Bigger canvases! Up to 100,000 x 100,000px canvas size for 64 bit

Bigger max brush size (up to 5000px)

Circle and line rulers

Perspective ruler (guide lines for 1 - 3 point perspective)

Select/edit multiple layers at once

Upgrade for free if you already have a SAI 1 license

Paint Tool SAI is my number one recommended art program for digital painters and this just makes it even better! The new font tool and canvas size limits, especially, should make it so much easier for people trying to make comics.

This is still in beta, so it’s untranslated and has some bugs. But it’s still great news! Go try it out!

They look so feirce

Representation Matters ✊🏾

HELLO AUTISM COMMUNITY!

I’m sorry, but I’ve gotta rant. The other day I was in New York, and I saw this billboard:

Look a little closer:

Yep, you’re seeing this right. Autism Speaks. On a billboard with Julia. Sesame Street has joined forces with our “pals” (and by pals I mean enemies that we wouldn’t touch with a ten foot pole) over at Autism Speaks. Julia, a character who has been embraced and loved by the autism community, is now the face of Autism Speaks, an organization that has hurt our community more than it has helped. I am heartbroken. This character has made me, as an autistic person, so happy and gave me hope that autism is starting to become more accepted by society. And although I don’t speak for everyone in the autism community, I know that there are many people who felt the same way. But now that this character is the face of an ableist movement which pushes the idea that autism is a disease in need of a cure, that hope is gone. PLEASE reblog this to get the word out, whether you’re on the autism spectrum or not.
