Happy new Year of the Justifiably Defensive Lobster, Discworld fans! As the turtle moves away from the Year of the Backwards Facing Artichoke, we would like to thank you for sharing our love of the wonderful world of Terry Pratchett & being the best customers a little literary shop could ask for! We hope to welcome more Pratchett pilgrims, reach new readers across Roundworld and help to keep the magic of Sir Terry alive throughout the new year and beyond! (from the Discworld Emporium Instagram)

Guys guys guys we really need to make this one thing clear

[calanthesfeuillemort]

One of the main differences is that dandyism was also an intellectual movement that stressed self-improvement in order to become a living work of art; later in the 19th century, it was closely associated with the Aesthetic, Decadent, and Symbolist Movements.  Foppery never had any intellectual underpinnings, but because dandies were considered flamboyant by 19th century standards, they were often perceived as fops anyway.

I am a fop.

I like amazing clothes that take 0 effort and no wanky intellectualisms

How to help your artists - The circle of influence.

So over the past 10-15 years, as I’ve been trying to branch out, grow a following and sell commissions, there’s one phrase I’ve heard more than any other.

“I’d love to support you, but I have no money.”

And you know, I get that. I understand. I don’t have any either. But here’s the secret. The most powerful and useful thing you can do to support an artist? It doesn’t cost a penny. Reblog their posts, signal boost their commissions, advertise their patreon./ If you have commissioned them, or do support their patreon? Write a review, tell your friends, share their links. Keep circulating the tapes.

Every post is an artist laying themselves bare before you. You have the power to make them into somebody. You can make them into a big name, you can help bring them an income. All you have to do is share.

Here’s a handy infographic.

If artists get only likes, they never get any exposure. They find no followers, they make no money, and feel worthless.

But with reblogs, who knows how far they could reach? New people could see their work and follow them, and maybe one person will spot that commissions post or patreon promo, and maybe offer to help support them. And it didn’t even cost those followers a penny to reblog the post.

So please, anyone out there. If you enjoy an artist’s work and can’t afford to give any monetary support, you can give them something more powerful. A voice.

[jarofloosescrews]

And authors, too. Please reblog and share author commissions!

To use the first 200 reblogs of this post as an example: 

That orange dot is OP! Look at how far those first few reblogs spread this post!

flower urchins are such fanciful magical looking animals and the most whimsical part of all has to be the part where if you touch those pretty little cups you die horribly

Really though what fucker even programmed the ocean

Rarely attacks in open water unless provoked, more interested in other NPC creatures

No interest in attacking player character, rarely even encountered

Zero combat capability

Checking up on Chainsmoke is really one of the main reasons I float around on Tumblr every once in a while. Really hope everything is going alright and you know you are an excellent person

Thanks for the kind words, anon! The boost comes at a good time and I appreciate it. There are a couple loose ends to tie up and some decisions to make, and then there will be a comic in some format or another. I need to be more productive, but am doing well right now. I hope you’re also well. Thank you again!❤

And thanks to anyone who took the time to speak to me or be a pal over the past couple years. Thanks for your likes and comments and reblogs, and thanks for sticking by!
