I have a FanFiction account (fanfic page here and a second account just for stuff related to my fanfics here for mobile users). Fanart is always appreciated. I also reblog things that I like and occasionally post headcanon that I think of.

Literally any other colour would’ve been a better choice guys.

[minty-mayhem]

I’d like to point out that the colour red has more positive than negative meanings.

[prescribedburning-deactivated20]

im sorry but this reply absolutely killed me

red can mean whatever the heck you want it to mean, that is never going to change that this straight up looks like they DRAGGED A BLOODY BODY ACROSS THE FUCKING FLOOR 😂

[elsegame]

Hi fun fact, colors do have meaning and there is a legit thing called color theory. Red does has more positive connotations than negative like the @mintymaiden said. Red is associated with more love, lust, passion than blood and death just like the chart shows you but If you want, here’s a link for you to check it out yourself. Also, check out “The Designer’s Dictionary of Color” by Sean Adams. Have fun learning something

What is Color Theory?

What isColor Theory? Color theory is a term used to describe the collection of rules and guidelines regarding the use of color in art and de

I think y’all are missing the point here.

[forlovefromfear]

You can theorize to Nebraska and back but that doesn’t change my immediate reaction which is that someone is literally dragging a corpse around

[jhenne-bean]

I like that the presumption here is that “No One On Tumblr Has Heard of Color Theory, Let Me Explain in Depth” rather than simply acknowledging that the VISUAL EFFECTS of this particular color choice, applied in the manner it was, can still amount to “this is a hospital and that looks like blood”

like, color theory doesn’t exist in a vacuum. If your design of choice for Blood Red Paint is asymmetric splatters and sploches against the wall, or in this case, a snail trail on the hallway’s floor, an infographic won’t override the viewers’ instinct.

this post is the perfect summation of tumblr’s reading comprehension and critical thought abilities

Reblogging because there’s a lot of new people on here and you need some context for the jokes.

[chipper-smol]

fun behaviors to give dragons that aren't feline/canine based

cause as much as i love dragons purring and roaring i wish there was just more variety in how they would act

clacking their teeth together to show contentedness/happiness (budgies)

using tails as a defensive weapon in a whip like fashion (iguana)

twitching to express that they're not a threat to members of their species (hognose snake)

feeling calm when eyes are hooded/covered (birds of prey)

head bobbing as a threat display (anoles/bearded dragons)

flattening neck or sides to appear bigger (snakes/lizards)

mantling over food to protect it from hatchmates (birds of prey)

wiggling neck as a courting maneuver (budgies)

audibly grinding teeth as a warning (macaques)

maintained eye contact as a challenge (gorillas)

pounding wings against sides as a threat (gorillas)

slapping other dragons with their claws when their personal bubble is invaded (seals)

hoards used as a site to impress mates (birds of paradise)

snorting when undergoing heightened stress (horses)

making repeated loud noises with surroundings to establish territory (woodpeckers)

loud constant arguments with other dragons when roosting (bats)

building lairs that cause a domino effect of change in the land around them (beavers)

slapping their tails against the ground/water as a warning (beavers)

wiggling tail tip to attract prey (various animals)

wiggling tail tip as a warning (snakes)

plucking or scraping off scales as a sign of stress (parrots)

raising spines/frills as a response to danger and carrying on with their usual business as they believe they're protected (lionfish)

and im not saying canine and feline behaviors are wrong or bad to give a dragon (people wouldn't write dragons with those behaviors if they weren't fun in the first place!) but i feel for creatures that are mythological giant winged lizards that you can do more and get experimental with it. often the more unfamiliar behavior the more dragony the dragon feels

extremely underrated subgenre of tumblr post: when someone makes a general statement about something, and another person offers a counter-statement that's just completely nonsensical, and the OP just agrees instantly even if it makes no sense at all

examples:

[bumblebeebats]

I feel like some people need to relearn Genre Expectations... "Man, this tragedy sucks!!! Why didn't they just do XYZ, then everything could have ended happily!!" well, then it wouldn't be a tragedy, would it. "Man, this lighthearted teen romcom is terrible, it's so sappy and unrealistic!!" Well, yeah. If it had been gritty and dark, it wouldn't have been a lighthearted romcom, would it. Is the writing actually bad or are you just trying to order a milkshake from a Home Depot

Reblogging for

“Is the writing bad or are you just trying to order a milkshake from a Home Depot”

I feel like that should be the canned response to anyone who complains in your fic’s AO3 comments about the [thing] when the [thing] is clearly tagged.

A 2025 update

[cryingprussian]

"teens are prone to tantrums and are emotionally unstable" - okay, yeah, puberty is real, and emotional regulation is a difficult skill to learn. but also. any adult person would be pissed if their opinions were disregarded, they had no say in what happens to them, their emotions and feelings were downplayed and their privacy were intruded on.

[help-help-i-need-an-adult]

People won’t let teens even go to the bathroom sometimes and they wonder why teens want to murder everyone sometimes

My middle school literally gave you a finite amount of bathroom passes you could use every quarter and if you ran out you just kinda had to shit yourself or get in school suspension.

[cryingprussian]

no but like it's insane how we HAD to ask the teachers "can i go to the bathroom?" and they COULD say "no". or say yes but leave an unnecessary rude comment before letting you go. or how we couldn't drink water during classes (idk what's the situation in other countries, but that's the case for me).

like what. what the fuck. this type of shit never works at college or uni mostly because you'd never even think of treating an adult person this way. why do we think it's okay to deny children tending to their basic needs and/or mocking them for having these needs. and why do we think children aren't gonna be furious about it.

[chemicalmagecraft]

Tbh this is kinda reminding me of this one teacher I had in high school who was like. “I know you literally have to walk literally almost the entire length of the school in the period between classes but you’re not allowed to go to the bathroom once you’re in class and also you’re not allowed to be late to class even if it was because you were going to the bathroom.” Like I literally tried explaining this problem to her and she didn’t care. That really sucked…

[chemicalmagecraft]

What if I just started explaining random hypothetical/philosophical bullshit to random people with almost no provocation like I’m a character in a 999 game

Honestly, now that I think about it I feel like I have occasionally been tempted to do just that…

[adriagan]

it fucking sucks being a disabled person who can't work and having to see these fuckass posts where someone's like "ahaha jobless people have no life and that's why everyone shitty online has No Job" and everyone and their mother reblogs it joyfully onto my dash for me to see. yes unemployed and unemployable people are truly without exception dogshit people with no hobbies and no redeeming qualities. you're so right. anyway if you'll excuse me i have to start my shift at the I'll Never Be Employed Because Of Permanent Disability And I Love Knowing How You Really See Me store

[adriagan]

if ur able to work can u reblog this i am seriously SO sick of it.

[adriagan]

btw this isn't solely a disability rights issue or an issue about people who are entirely unable to work. you should also be thinking about the people who are regarded as unhireable. transfems are hugely discriminated against in this way, people of color are passed over for less qualified white people, anyone who has any difficulty playing the interview game is less hireable... frankly anyone who made the mistake of pursuing the things they love and now has a degree for a niche field. if you still joke about Jobless People it's because you've fundamentally connected the worth of people to their labor, and specific labor, work that you see as valuable. and while i'm at it stop making fun of people who still live with their parents. asshole.

the entire Spender Q&A in chronological order

sorry this took me the better part of a month to get around to anon! these are all the most original versions I could find on tumblr and the wayback machine and cover all the broken links u wanted as well (unfortunately I couldn't find any record of the first few tweets so they're just from zack's current twitter)

if anything is too blurry lmk, i also have a more neatly formatted version for readability clanging around in google docs, but it doesn't have the original images like this does!

[chemicalmagecraft]

So I just finished watching The Truman Show and I am definitely feeling Some Kind Of Way About It.

Is it odd that I kinda wanna headcanon Truman as transfem now? Like I feel like there are some themes and stuff I could probably make an essay out of if I really wanted to (and/or was being graded on it, but thankfully I am done with college) but also it might just be because I’m trans, autistic, and currently gripped in the throes of Blorbo.

[sexhaver]

i unironically believe electricity is the closest thing we have to magic in this universe. consider:

it's basically what human "souls" are made of (your consciousness is the result of miniscule amounts of electric charge jumping between neurons in your brain)

when handled incorrectly or encountered in the wild, it is a deadly force that can kill you in at least half a dozen different ways

when treated respectfully and channeled into the proper conduits, it is a power source that forms the backbone of modern society

if you engrave the right sigils into a rock and channel electricity into it, you can make the rock think

there is a dedicated caste of mages (electrical engineers) tasked with researching it in ivory towers

whatever the fuck Galvani was doing with those frog legs

look at this and just try to tell me it isn't a kind of summoning circle

have you fucking seen plasma

[pokemonopinionpoll]

I got a fighting type that looks like, and I quote, "something fucked like idk a coral or a sponge"

[chemicalmagecraft]

I got water/electric jellyfish. Which is… surprisingly really on theme for a random rolling, but also I would not enjoy being a jellyfish (unless it was like a cute jellyfish girl or something but even then eh I would’ve liked dragon or something)
