my thoughts in a nutshell
i hope tumblr users never stop talking about punk music i think we deserve this
Gender is like a playground game where the schoolyard bullies are in charge of constantly changing rules and if you don't follow their rules exactly at all times they're gonna kick the shit out of you.
It doesn't matter if you're a gnc masculine cis woman or a gnc feminine cis man — you're not playing the gender game right. It doesn't matter if you're a binary, gender conforming trans man or trans woman — you're still not playing the gender game right. It doesn't matter if you're a feminine, gnc binary trans man or a masculine, gnc binary trans woman — you're really not playing the gender game right. It especially doesn't matter if you're nonbinary or intersex — you somehow "decided" to play a completely different game and wow do the playground bullies hate that.
The only way to survive the gender game is to be a binary, cisgender, perisex, gender conforming, typically white person and EVEN THEN!!! You are under constant scrutiny by Da Rules of the gender game. The way leftist men will joke about right wing men being "low T" is someone getting shit kicked in the gender game. The way cis women will scrutinize each other wrt just exactly how much femininity and sexuality or lack of femininity and sexuality is acceptable is someone getting shit kicked in the gender game. The way people of color experience completely different modes of gender policing that an uncomfortable number of white people can't even conceptualize is someone getting shit kicked in the gender game.
There is no way to win the gender game.
happy “wednesday starts now” wednesday!

SculptGL. A sculpting tool which I am yet to master, but you should be able to make whatever 3d object you like with it. free.
Pexels. Free stock images. And the search engine is actually pretty good at pulling up what you want.
Figurosity. Great pose references, diverse body types, lots of "how to draw" videos directly on the site, the models are 3d and you can rotate the angle, but you can't make custom poses or edit body proportions. Free, account option, paid plans available.
Line of Action. More drawing references, this one also has a focus on expressions, hands/feet, animals, landscapes. Free.
Animal Photo. You pose a 3d skull model and select an animal species, and they give you a bunch of photo references for that animal at that angle. Super handy. Free.
Height Weight Chart. You ever see an OC listed as having a certain weight but then they look Wildly different than the number suggests? Well here's a site to avoid that! It shows real people at different weights and heights to give you a better idea of what these abstract numbers all look like. Free to use.
MapCrunch. Environment artists rejoice. Random locations, filter by indoor or outdoor, rural or urban, specific country. Great for realistic/authentic building ref.
in my new game you will be able to be chased around by many different types of beetle
hey don't cry. blorbo coughing up blood
blorbo writhing in agony ok? don't cry
blorbo screaming so much their voice becomes hoarse and weak and the pain still won't stop
blorbo unable to close their eyes and avoid the visceral sight of their own body
blorbo suffering unimaginable pain and being powerless to stop it ok? ok
I like seeing some of you ""regulars"" in my notes it's like oh hey that's my Coworker from Tumblr

I wondered how good this would look if I turned the bright green into a darker shade. Turns out, phenomonal.
I also turned her eyes red. They now tie into the cutie mark and also look pretty insane.
sometimes older people get annoyed when i say "no problem" instead of "you're welcome" but the truth is it's literally not a problem
and sometimes you're not welcome
"it's just stress" oh thank god, it's just the silent killer that slowly kills you, perfectly harmless, no need to worry
