you’re special to me, you know?

[betneydraws]

It's been a while since I've drawn Adachi! I started playing Persona again and remembered how much I love/hate him!

[ da2 ] (spoken far too close to the mic) anyone here um . uh. anyone here care about dragon age?

[when-did-this-become-difficult]

I genuinely think @staff should give us an official Bot Kill Count where it ticks up every time a bot you reported is officially taken off by the tumblr team and when you hit a certain number you get gruesome little trophies. Gamification can be of the devil but in this particular case I need a little treat for doing my daily chore of taking out the trash

Tips for dealing with below 0°F temperatures, for anyone who's not used to it and is now having to deal with it in this winter storm:

Tuck your shirt into your pants to prevent the cold from sneaking in

Put on a sweater or a hoodie over that, and then also wear a coat over that

Put on a beanie and then pull your hood up over that (BOTH hoods if you're wearing a hoodie instead of a sweater)

Wear a scarf underneath your coat hood. You want it to be kept as close to you as possible, and hopefully high enough that you can tuck your nose into it while walking outside

Wear solid pants like jeans, and put on tights, leggings, or (if you actually have any) long underwear underneath

Wear two pairs of socks—at least one of which is long socks—and tuck your leggings into those

Wear boots or some other thick shoe with good traction if you have any

GLOVES. Wear two pairs if you need to. I only have one pair and now my hands are my only weak point 😭

Try not to stay outside for too long if you can help it, frostbite and hypothermia are painful and very dangerous. When you're inside, make sure you're eating plenty of food and drinking plenty of water. Your body needs energy and hydration to fight off the cold. Stay safe out there everyone

collecting sad pathetic male characters like they are stuffed animals to arrange on my bed

[cassianandfenrysaremyboyos]

I am consuming a media and you are going to hear about it

[lu-sn]

and the thrilling sequel: i consumed a media months ago and you are still hearing about it

[freenarnian]

and the cautionary conclusion: the media has consumed me

[heritageposts]

I realized my art has their own gap moe

Personal art is memes and shitposts while the Commission art has so much sparkles

You can’t go wrong with sparkles haha 

It’s a must

[staffs-secret-blog]

So that's where they're getting all their designs

[hellothepixel]

I do like the new designs but also it's incredibly fucking funny that they're holding the Tumblr Logo Redesign Contest on instagram

[staffs-secret-blog]

Could have at least notified tumblr users

[doggirlpaws]

Zoos don't let the animals design the signs for their own enclosures

[gingerblivet]

They should

[betneydraws]

Happy Halloween!

⚠️SCAM ALERT⚠️

soo scams have been on the rise lately. i was recently approached by a woman saying she wanted a portrait of her daughter for $200. she “accidentally” wrote a check for $2000 instead, wanting me to send back $1800.

i almost did it, because i assumed a faulty check wouldn’t deposit. luckily i looked up mobile banking check scams. YOU CAN STILL BE SCAMMED WITH A BAD CHECK. it won’t flag it till later, leaving you owing money.

i just wanted to share this because i could’ve been totally fucked over if i didn’t look it up. stay safe out there guys

Thank you, OP, it is always good to see awareness being spread about scams! Knowledge and skepticism are the best ways to fight them.

This one’s a popular variation on what’s called an ‘overpayment’ scam. Any time anybody sends (general) you money and then asks you to send some of that money back, you should be looking out for this. 

Also, because apparently a lot of younger people don’t know this: cheques aren’t immediate payments. It can take five to ten days for a cheque to clear - that is, for the other bank or credit union to get notified about the cheque trying to be withdrawn from the account they hold, determine whether or not the cheque is legit and the funds are available, and either let the cheque go through or ask for the money back if the cheque is bad. Yes, you can see your account balance go up immediately, but that money gets taken right back out of your account if the cheque is bad.

On an episode of Bar Rescue I saw once, the bar owners hadn’t paid their staff for several months, and Jon Taffer insisted that they pay their staff before he’d help them. However, he had the bar owners write the manager a cheque for the back wages, and then go and deposit the cheque to her account that same day, and then when she came back the same day and said she’d been able to deposit the cheque, he went ahead. That cheque could easily have bounced three days later and the staff still wouldn’t have been paid their back wages. 

It’s a good rule of thumb, if you’re accepting a cheque, to assume the money isn’t actually there until at least a week has passed. (Some banks or credit unions will have what’s called a ‘standard hold’ on certain types of cheque deposits, so that you actually can’t access those funds until after the cheque clears. If you’ve ever deposited a cheque at an ATM, you’ve probably run into this.)

And finally, before I get off my soapbox again, if anybody ever emails you an image of a cheque, it’s fake. End of. You can’t email cheques and then deposit them any more than you can email dollar bills and then print them out and spend them.
