OKAY hi hello I'm making a pinned post finally! I'm Jay (she/ her) and I've been on tumblr since the dawn of time. I reblog a bunch of seemingly unrelated stuff for my friends and I talk a lot about my OCs so watch out

Tags
me - depictions of me. in theory, selfies; in practice, mostly, like, pictures of beetles
about me - posts that are about me, sometimes even literally
my art - exactly what it says on the tin
tagged for me - posts that made my friends think of me :3
husband - tumblbuddies - irl frens - my FRIENDS!!! 💖💕
this has been kitty talk - look at my little bitty kitties (my kitties)
spider, spiders - to block if you hate spiders, to peruse if you love them (you're welcome)
OCs and other tags under the cut!
Blorbos
One of these days I'll put together a nice orderly About page for each of my little guys. For now, here's a bunch of tags (insp tags are mostly reblogs; name tags are mostly art, asks, or other original posts). These are not all of my blorbos, just the most usually mentioned
Indigo - indigo insp - gnome pirate circle of stars druid
Benny - benny insp - human knight
What's With The Gnomes
elyss and june - fengling and june - felix and mel - benny and edel - simon and felix - ship tags 😌
I just think they're neat!! This is primarily about the dungeons and dragons race, specifically in 5e which is the edition I'm playing and am familiar with. I love them a lot and I have a lot of Thoughts™ and I make it everybody's problem. But also, honorable mention to fairytale garden type gnomes, because I do vibe with being six inches tall and having tea with field mice
gnome stuff - vibes, aesthetic, and worldbuilding thoughts for DnD gnomes
gnomeposting - posts about the jolly little fellows with the pointy hats
look at my gnomes boy - a semi-joke tag for art of my gnome OCs
worldbuilding - thoughts and reblogged resources for worldbuilding, gnome specific and otherwise
Look I do. Genuinely. tend to keep most of my hater opinions pretty close to the vest. Because like okay, you liked the thing I think kinda sucked, I don't need to go ringing your doorbell about it. We can agree on that.
But I feel the sleeper-phrase activation in myself whenever I see a take like "um if you didn't like it it's actually because you didn't understand it!!!!" and i have to like. Take a walk around the block before I morph into Ron Swanson.
I must say it HAS been very satisfying to watch various sites and brands and services that have played very aggressive and pushy 'you MUST use this you MUST download this you MUST sign up you MUST have a paid subscription' approaches gradually sliding into 'aw cmon 🥺 it's good 🥺 you'll like it 🥺 no no of course you don't Have To here look we prommy you don't actually have to but c'mon there's extra bonus features if you do and they're nice 🥺 don't you want to try? it might be nice 🥺' in a way that would have been, like, normal marketing before but now just feels like obvious sniveling backtracking because the strongarm bullshit didn't actually pay off
I kind of miss the impulsivity that certain spaces used to allow. oh you want a hair cut today? hairdresser in the corner can fit you in before her 2 o’clock. tattoo of a cobra… sure leg or arm? even concerts, back when you could go to the box office thirty mins before any show. not saying these things don’t exist at all, but everything feels booked five months in advance and 10x more expensive
