Surprise! Tumblr just got turned into an epic fantasy RPG, just like [your favorite appropriate media franchise]. And the Tumblr RPG's plot needs to have all of its characters covered, in roles both large and small.

That means that you are assigned to a stereotypical RPG role inside our new fantasy world. Spin this wheel to find out what you are now doing for a living.

How well suited are you for your new role?

Noooooo this doesn't sound fun :(

Not what I would have picked for myself, but... I'll make it work

Eh. Could be better, but could be a lot worse

Okay, I can work with this!

I WAS BORN TO PLAY THIS ROLE

Artus Scheiner, Illustration of the tale “The Little Stars of Gold”

[an-na-ko]

Lyra, my beloved cat of 13 years, passed away this year on Father's Day. She's been by my side through very difficult times and was my little rock of steady and unrelenting love. I struggled a lot drawing this, and struggled a lot posting it, but I know I would've wanted to read a comic like this that validated my grief for her when I lost her.

Wherever you are, Lyra my little summer star, I love you always! Thank you for being the best thing in my life.

Here's a mastiff completing the agility trial at a dog show.

The excited cheers of the crowd as this drool monster begrudgingly jumps, has made my 2025 already.

Honestly i love how this shows how completely different dog breeds can be. Like, you can take a papillion over that course at warp 9 but this guy isn't built for that speed! He's taking his time! Hes got a lot of bulk to move!

[alex51324]

He came pretty darn close to a clean round, too. Like you can kind of see that he doesn't get the point of this activity, but his two-legged friend wants to do it, so he's showing up ready to make an effort. What a great dog.

i’m reposting this comic (not made by me, but a lovely artist i don’t know the name of!) for my dear friend ibrahim @wolf-aid because despite the great number of notes on the original post, donations are slowing down and he still needs our help.

Donate to Help Ibrahim's escape the Gaza war, organized by Safaa Alanqar

Hello I am Ibrahim, 15 years old, I seek your help and assistance to save my lif… Safaa Alanqar needs your support for Help Ibrahim's e

to summarize: ibrahim is 15 years old and living in unimaginable conditions in gaza. he’s constantly battling illness on top of struggling to find food and water for himself and his family members. some messages he’s shared with me shed light on his situation:

on top of campaigning for himself, he also selflessly tries to campaign for others and spread awareness of other campaigns. he is a sweet, kind young man who enjoys school, loves instant noodles, and talks to me every day. he needs help. please, if you can: match my donation of €10. if you can't spare that, spare €5 or even €1. if you really have nothing to give, share this post. don't turn away from suffering. this is your chance to do something.

Now that I have your attention, please consider reading @nor-and-family 's story:

Donate to Help Nour's Family Rebuild After Devastation, organized by Gz Thrift

This fundraiser is Nour from Gaza, her husband, and their 5 children: Muhammad,… Gz Thrift needs your support for Help Nour's Family Rebuild

Imagine for a moment that Nour's five children are your siblings. Surely you wouldn't want five kids, the youngest of which is only 2 years old, to witness the horrors of war and genocide.

As you can see, the campaign has not even reached half of its goal! This cannot continue.

Donate, any donation can help, and share the campaign widely, which costs you nothing. Together we can give this family a bright future 🙏🙏🙏

Random question I'm asking here because screw you

Say you are cooking or baking or something. Now say you need to measure 1 and a half cups of something (metric unit users calm down. You can still answer the heart of the question even if the unit is different), but you do not have a measuring cup that is specifically 1 and a half cups.

Which of the following methods do you use to measure 1 1/2 cups?

One half cup x 3

One cup + one half cup

Fill a bigger measuring cup to the 1 1/2 cup line

I measure with my heart exclusively. So I I suck at baking

Some other weird combination like doing 24 tablespoons

This question is stupid. I refuse to answer and instead I'm gonna send anon hate

There is a great deal of truth there. Sometimes special moments happen purely by accident. But most of them happen because you make a plan and create the conditions to let them happen.

[buckys-a-babe]

I have a favorite restaurant, I've been going there since high school (I am 41). But for reasons that I eventually realized are stupid (location - slightly outside my immediate neighborhood; price - it had one), I only ever went maybe two or three times a year. I'd wrangle my mom and a friend for a birthday, we might grab it as takeout for a game night, and maybe we spend a couple months syncing schedules to make a single date night. My *favorite* restaurant and a year I ate there three times was a good year.

Eventually realized that someday, I was going to make plans to go and find out it had shut down.

It's been a monthly date night with a couple friends now for more than a year and the sheer joy of knowing I get to spend that time with them, eat the same meal that hasn't gotten boring..

Make your joy.

Fuckboys aren't just seeking/enjoying casual or nsa sex. Fuckboys are shady about it, misleading, or incredibly pushy.

A fella that says, "I'm looking to hook up, is that a thing you're into?" Is not the same as a fella that says, "I'm looking for a relationship, I can see myself with you. [Hookup ensues] You are really cool and I wanna keep doing this, but I'm not ready for a relationship."

"I'm not ready or looking for a relationship, but I'd like to hang out and fool around. Does that mesh with what you're looking for? No? That's cool, do you wanna hang out or does that make you uncomfy?" Is not the same as "I just wanna hang out and fool around. What? That's not ok with you? Alright..we can still hang though, there's nothing wrong with being friends. What? I snuggle all my friends. You're really hot and it's hard to keep my hands off you. I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I don't wanna lose your friendship, it means a lot to me. Honestly, you're maybe the only person I could see myself in a relationship with, I'm just not ready. [Is actively hooking up with multiple other people] I'm so glad you're in my life....I'm sorry ok? I thought maybe you'd be interested in hooking up. It's fine. It's fine, I said! [Still the hookups with many other people] we should fool around just once, I bet it would be hot. How do you know you're not interested if we don't give it a shot? No, I told you I'm not ready for a relationship, stop being so pushy."

"I'm just looking for hookups, what about you? Oh, ok, that's cool. Good luck, you seem really cool. [Contact ends.]" Does not equal "I'm mostly looking for hook ups. Oh yeah? You're not into no strings or one night stands? I get it. You're pretty cool, though. We should hang out and fool around, like a friends with benefits situation. Yeah, I am absolutely looking for friends. [Hookup ensues] [Contact ends]"

It's fully not hypocritical to shame the shitty fuckboy behavior and still enjoy casual sex.

I need to note this poll is going to skew dramatically because this is very explicitly about WHAT KIND OF MACHINE WAS COMMON WHEN YOU LEARNED. Typewriters didn't always have even kerning (actually I suspect they USUALLY didn't have even kerning) and a worn machine could do funny things with letters, so you'd double-space to make it clear it was a deliberate ending and not your typewriter being a diva. The double-space provided clarity.

Once we moved away from manual typewriters, there was no need for this--a computer will always have even kerning unless you've deliberately picked a font that mimics a typewriter (or is really badly designed), and computers don't have platens to wear down. I took keyboarding in 1998 and my teacher was still teaching two spaces, but many of us instinctively used one, and by the time I graduated high school they were teaching one space (although probably not entirely consistently yet).

[buckys-a-babe]

I use two on a full computer and usually one on my phone. "Learned" on a typewriter but learned touch typing on a computer. I honestly don't remember how it was taught in my typing class, since I didn't take the class to learn, lol. But on a computer, with a computer screen a single space is too close for me, it feels squished. IDC about the kerning thing, I have shitty eyesight and the double space looks clearer to me.

[an-aura-about-you]

btw while people continue to fight the system don't forget about Undue Medical Debt (formerly RIP Medical Debt), a charity that buys and forgives medical debt. on average a donation of $10 will forgive $1,000 of medical debt.

[an-aura-about-you]

I'm fairly confident that this is now the one original post I've made that has gotten the most notes, and I honestly couldn't be happier. the more attention we give this, the higher the chances that someone will see this and donate. medical debt is both one of the most crushing things a person can deal with and one of the stupidest things humanity has invented. and if you live in the US, I have no doubt that you've had to deal with medical debt in your life, either for yourself or a loved one. even a small donation can do so much good, and now is the time of year when we are encouraged to think of others.

Thinking about it, it was the French Canadian side of the family. I suppose there's every chance these distant aunts and uncles just brought them home by the suitcase load.

I liked to nibble them all quick right down the stick and pretend I was a squirrel. I am now craving them like mad.
