I will draw: OCs, any fandom, humanoid creatures/monsters, and basically any ship. Smut is absolutely ok!

Maybe: I might say no to certain ships and content if it’s not my thing or I don’t think I can draw it. For example if you request something that I absolutely know I can’t do justice I will tell you and try to recommend somebody else who might take it on.

Might not draw robots or furries depending on the design, as I’m not used to drawing either.

Will NOT draw: graphic violence, non con, underage characters or real people in nsfw situations.

Message me if you have questions about any of that or want something that’s not on the list.

The popularity of the "incompetent stupid piece of shit husband and competent wife who loves him anyways" trope in media is a psyop to make women believe its normal to settle for an incompetent stupid piece of shit husband

I'm in a little local cafe and the women behind the counter started griping to each other, "Oh Christ, Stephen's back again," "It's him, is it? I thought he'd stopped coming," "It's definitely him, look, it's bloody Stephen on a Thursday morning," "Do you want me to get rid of him or are you going to do it?" and so I was peering outside, trying to spot this nightmare customer, this pestilence of a person, this pox upon the cafe trade, and then one of the women from behind the counter ran outside, clapping two trays together loudly and yelling "GET OUT OF IT, STEPHEN!" and it turns out that Stephen is an absolutely gigantic fuck-off seagull who hangs around outside, menacing people for crumbs

there's nothing i like more as a computer program than a long period of silent contemplation - not doing anything, not rushing anywhere, just standing here and enjoying this moment with the user. oh, it seems once again he has summoned my beautiful and ruthless wife Task Manager. hello, my darling! what are you doing with that long cruel scimitar

does anyone have advice on keeping badges from falling off? I do have pin backs that essentially screw on securely and I haven't lost a pin since, but don't know what works with badges

It would be funny if we were introduced to a vast galaxy of alien life and the blue whale was still the largest animal ever discovered. Like that’s the biggest life has ever gotten. That would be fucked. The blue whale is just the craziest animals would get even with the introduction of a seemingly infinite number of new species. Would you be disappointed or celebrate the enormity of our homegrown big ass creature?

[questions-about-blorbos]

What does your Blorbo smell like at 3 AM?

Cheap cologne and bad decisions

Old books and coffee (or tea)

Forest floor and repressed trauma

Gunpowder and hair gel

Sterile antiseptic and something metallic underneath

Rain-soaked fabric that never fully dried

Cigarette smoke clinging to expensive clothes hours later

Cold air and static, right before a storm

Dusty curtains and a room that hasn’t been opened in years

Soap that smells clean but doesn’t quite mask something else

Ozone and burnt circuitry, like something shorted out inside

Leather, gun oil, and a hint of expensive cologne

Remaining time: 4 days 17 hours

Every poll on this blog is about fictional characters only. This request was sent to us and we made a poll in response to it. Send any Blorbo-related question you want to our inbox and we’ll make a poll on which people can vote with their own Blorbos in minds
