To Each Their Own

Heya, nice to meet you! Call me Yuuki or just Yu. This is my personal blog where I mainly just reblog things.

[limehoneytea]

They don’t care about the public’s opinion anymore??? Are you shitting me??? Isn't America supposed to be a democracy where the people have a say in the future of this country?? They say they won’t listen to opinions anymore.

GUYS PUMP OUT COLD HARD FACTS. I’LL BE WRITING AN EMAIL TO THE HEAD SCUMBAG HIMSELF WITH SOME COLD HARD FACTS. I SUGGEST YOU GUYS DO THE SAME!!!

ps: i know I’m being obnoxious with all the unnecessary punctuation and all caps but i need to get the message across.

edit: someone asked for a source so here: https://www.theverge.com/2017/11/22/16689838/fcc-net-neutrality-comments-were-largely-ignored

[affinnity]

I absolutely agree with rephrasing the letters and redoubling efforts but as cathartic as it is to send letters directly to Ajit Pai, it’s misdirecting useful energy. He is about as anti-net neutrality as it is physically possible to be and even if you are a lawyer and you send perfectly phrased legalese to him, he is not going to change his position. The key here is to send messages to people that can potentially be swayed.

These are the other commissioners of the FCC. Please, aside from your senators and representatives, email these people and let them hear your voice.

(x) This is a link to the leadership page for the FCC, under each name is a tab where you can email them directly, please take the time to do so if you can.

[lioness--hart]

FYI, I had a couple of posts tagged net neutrality scheduled to go out over the last couple days but they somehow never showed up? I’m suspicious now that they’re being censored. Keep an eye out for this.

[wildhaunt]

this literally just happened i’ll post the screen cap in second

here’s the post @lioness–hart just put up 

here’s what happened when i tried to reblog

Error Code: OCP02 [Post Not Found] does this violate current net neutrality itself? like censoring posts like this …

[lioness--hart]

It sure does. Big companies have been censoring content and voices for years, but without net neutrality they’ll basically be getting paid to do it en masse. It’ll get way worse way fast.

People who live on Caribbean islands and in Florida please prepare for a possible hurricane that can cause MAJOR destruction!! Hurricane Irma has been growing at fast rates and it doesn’t hurt to be safe than sorry. Stock up on food, water, portable chargers, and other helpful resources that can get you through this.

Here is a 2017 hurricane disaster guide that contains vital information on how to survive a hurricane. It’s too early to tell how far it’ll go beyond Florida but meteorologists are predicting it can hit the Carolinas. The storm isn’t expected to hit the U.S until Friday, so that gives Florida residents a lot of time to stock up and get prepared. 

[dothedansemacabre]

Florida’s Governor has already declared a state of emergency!

[idinamenzl]

signal boost!

read this because is very important:

tomorrow is election day in my country but that is a bad new because if the actual government win, my country (Venezuela) is going to be communist (plus its an illegal election) the current president, a drug trafficking and dictator, would rule as he wants and that means:

there will be no means of communication

no internet

no more democratic elections

no more banks or credit/debit cards

if i want to travel to another country i’ll not be able to

i’ll not be able to decide my religion cause the president decides for me

not to mention the economic and social crisis we already have. In the last months they have killed almost 100 (or more) people for thinking differently, have been tortured and put in jail without reason! And everything could get worse!

I don’t know if you would read this, but please help us. Many countries have opposed to this situation (we don’t have food or medicines or even toothpaste who is fucking expensive here). 

Help my country, pray for us or send help. Do something! People is dying here, is like a war disguised as democracy. Or to put it in terms that understand: it’s like The Hunger Games but worse

[idinamenzl]

GUYS PLEASE READ THISSS

[idinamenzl]

Update: Today have killed 15 people for thinking different, this can’t be happening, it’s illegal and no one helps us. the airlines left the country, that means no one can travel outside. It’s awful, please pray for us. Please

[idinamenzl]

update 2: ok guys, its time to know the news (11:46pm) PLEASE PRAY FOR VENEZUELA PLEASE

[idinamenzl]

UPDATE!!!

Ok guys, they won. they won with 8 millions of votes. but don’t be fooled. Today the polling places were empty, and at 3pm only 1 million of people voted (less than the 2%) My cousin told me that they use information of DEATH PEOPLE to gain votes.

Ten countries don’t recognize this election. Was a fraud election. And the only thing that need matter is the fact that 15 PEOPLE WERE KILLED TODAY, and two of them were just TEENAGERS (13 and 17 years old)

one woman was FIRED of her work for doesn’t go to vote (according to her family, she was an amazing employed). People have crossed the border with Colombia to not stay here

The president is talking now, he’s saying that “the socialism won” that “no one motherfucker (talking about the people who are opposed to this) is going to rule here”. Things are going to be worse.

If you want to help, pray for us. go to the embassies of Venezuela in your countries and don’t recognize this government, this election

Nicolas Maduro is a killer, a torturer, HE IS A LIAR. PEOPLE IS DYING HERE, WE DON’T HAVE MEDICINES AND FOOD AND BASIC STUFF TO LIVE. PEOPLE ARE EVEN EATING FROM THE GARBAGE.

THIS COULD HAPPEN IN THE NEXT HOURS OR DAYS. READ THE IMAGES BELOW

Spread the word please. DONT LET THE PRESIDENT SILENCE US

[idinamenzl]

UPDATE!!!!!!!!!1

NICOLAS MADURO SAID THAT POLITICANTS AGAINST HIM ARE GOING TO BE IN JAIL

HE SAID THAT THE MOST IMPORTANT TV CHANNELS HERE MIGHT DISAPPEAR JUST FOR SAYS THE TRUTH

HE’S A DICTATOR!!! VENEZUELA IS DYING, PLEASE HELP US. SPREAD THISSS

[oceanwavebluees]

Fifteen people died in riots yesterday (July 30, 207) alone. People are literally starving to death, not because they don’t have any money, but because there simply isn’t any food in supermarkets across the country. The shelves are completely bare - no food, no water, no toilet paper, no nothing.

This isn’t a political crisis anymore. It’s a humanitarian crisis. And it pisses me off that people don’t care about it as much as they would if this wasn’t happening in a Latinamerican country. You KNOW this wouldn’t have gotten this far if it was France, or the UK, or Canada. But because the people suffering are Latinos, the global community doesn’t give a shit, and that directly leads to people dying.

#listen I’m Colombian and the horror stories we hear about what’s going on at the border chill me to the bone#please do whatever you can to help Venezuela

do you know of anything those of us living in north america or elsewhere can do to help?  if not that’s totally fine it’s not your responsibility at all, just wondering since you are a lot closer geographically to what’s happening than i am.

ATTENTION ALL PET OWNERS! DO NOT USE THIS PRODUCT ON YOUR ANIMALS!

A family friend’s cat nearly died from having this stuff on it.

But that didn’t stop my dad, so I made him look up the effects and every review that we get; SOMEONE’S PET DIES!

PLEASE DO NOT USE THIS PRODUCT!

reblog to save a pet’s life

[jheselbraum]

Dawn kills fleas, apparently. Also vinegar. And neem oil (look for neem shampoo. Neem is non toxic to mammals but kills bugs and aquatic life).

And temperatures over 95 degrees Fahrenheit kills fleas so if you’re in an area where it gets hotter than that don’t worry about treating your car if you take your pet to the vet

Temperatures 32 F and below will kill them too so same thing for you northern folk.

Do you have any tips for how to draw proportionate heads for video game characters because I can never seem to get it right and I wanna draw my fire emblem babies like you do :'( they so pretty. Any help is appreciated!

At first we should listen to the art teacher Mr Squidward and start out with a circle, It’s the base how we start out to draw a head. Then decide in which direction your character is supposed to look. Create ledger lines for this case. I always use a vertical and a horizontal one.

Now we get to the more complicated part. I suck at explaining but I’ll try anyway xP (I sketched these at 3-4am, sorry if you can’t read them;;;)The eyes are always on the middle of your face. It’s helpful to look where the middle is from the beginning of your chin to the top of your head

Same goes for the ears when you draw a character from the side, they are around the middle of the head. The ears high are also around between the eyes and the nose

The Eyes also mostly have an one-eyes-distance to each other

Well this is how I do heads, but it generally depends on each art style.Just take these tips and try out

[lithety]

Hello, me again. :3 I just read your tutorial on how to draw eyes, and was just wondering if you did one for hair?

Let’s see. With hair I have the feeling that I could tell you a bunch that I know and at the same time I have the feeling that everything comes at once that I don’t know where to even start. So I start with one thing today

As I mentioned in one of my previous little tutorials: I always help myself by drawing this one pink line. it shows me where the where the hair starts / where the bangs have to end.

Now comes the part where you should have in mind what kind of hair you want to draw. How should the bangs look like? Does the person have wild short hair or decent long hair? To separate the three parts of the hair I’m gonna use green for the bangs, blue for the hair on the side and red for the remaining hair/the hair on the back side

I’m gonna use here some examples. Here I played around with the hair, making it sticking out to as many directions as possible. With the orange color I marked the point out where the hair “flows down”

Here is it again with a decent long hair style. Long hair is really good to play arounf how exactly they went down as you can see that some of her hair goes back to her shoulder and then to her back.

Here is a version with arrows showing the directions the hair is taking and how they go down

(And here are the two recycled from the little eye tutorial showing off how their hair works)

Well yeah, drawing hair is actually a lot of fun and you can play a lot around with them.

(Sorry if some of these things are badly explained but it’s 3am here right now and I’m a bit sleepy)

[lithety]

Hi! You are my fav Tumblr artist ;^^; Really, ur so awesome How long have you been drawing? I got my drawing pad yesterday and I'm following the small tutorial you did, but could yo please do a small one for eyes? Love you ;^^; ♡

Hey hey, first of all: Thank you very much! I still have a lot to learn but I’m happy to hear that you like my works so much! I really hope that my little tutorials helps you with your drawings

Now then, a little tutorial of how I draw eyes?

Hmm, that’s gonna be a little difficult on how to explain it because I’m afraid I don’t know a special super trick to make drawing eyes easier. But I can try.

Eyes have many different shapes! You should try play around and how they might look like in your style. Here are some examples (and how I did them)

It is also important to know where exactly you place the eyes.(Like I explained from my last tutorial post) the eyes are always in the center of the head. You should always draw lines to help you see if you have placed them right or not. Between the eyes is mostly a distance of at least one eye. 

Of course as soon as you use the ¾ view you can’t use the 1-eye distance trick, there you have to trust your instincts or something

You see (the with my quickly drawn characters) the ¾ view can be a little complex sometimes, I don’t really know how to explain it, but as more as you train the view and the way the eyes look in that view, you should become slowly better as more experience you learn from it.

Hope it helped at least a little bit owo)/

[kisu-no-hi]

Dearest Kisu, the characters you draw are always full of like and dynamic! Do you have any tips to draw more dynamic characters/poses ? I love your art so much, you're such an inspiration to me

1. The action line:

It’s a line that you use when you create the posing that will help you translate a strenght/ an intention and  give “a direction” to the body.

2. Perspective

It can help making a posing more dynamic if you vary angles, perspective and directions

3. Don’t be shy, exaggerate!

That’s how you really can translate mouvements through drawings!

4. Try to avoid “mirrorl” stuff.

It works very well when you want to do artistic stuff (like tarot card aesthetics) but not so much when you want it to look lively.

(Making hair and clothes flow help a lot too hahaha)

5. Try to do “one stroke” line so it doesn’t “break” the mouvement

Advice for girls: buy skinny jeans in the boy’s section

They’re more comfortable, still form fitting, and best of all: THE POCKETS. THEY HAVE ACTUAL POCKETS.

don’t believe me? look:

these are boys pants, and they look just as good on me as any other skinny jeans I own

See that phone? I’m going to put it in the pocket. Must be so small right??

Ah yes, girl pants length. Probably can’t fit any further than that-

what? what’s this?

Good god. Oh good lord in heaven. This is blasphemous.

Look at how much room is still there. There’s chaos in the streets. Babies are crying. Fashion designers are screaming out of fear of the unknown.

Buy your pants in the boys section, girls. Live in the beautiful world you deserve where you can fit shit in your pocket.

[prismatic-bell]

Curvy ladies: Men’s dress pants have more room in the butt. I don’t know why, I only know that all my dress pants for work are off the rack in the men’s department in Target. Literally nobody has noticed, except a couple of my younger coworkers who’ve asked me–you guessed it–”oh my god, where did you find pants with pockets?”

Tall ladies: men’s pants are easier to find in longer lengths than women’s pants are.

Trans ladies: Wanna get on this gravy train, but afraid people will misgender you for wearing clothes off the men’s racks? Step one: tell me who these people are and I will punch them in the face. Step two: if it doesn’t make you dysphoric, please don’t feel obligated to wear pants off the women’s racks if pants off the men’s racks are more comfy/useful to you. I’m a cis woman who’s been wearing pants from the boys’ section and, later, the men’s section, ever since I hit puberty and in thirteen years maybe, maybe half a dozen people have noticed. And it’s always women asking the oh-my-god-pockets question. You’re all good. <3

Fat ladies: you will pay the same for a pair of 42x32 jeans as for a pair of 34x32 jeans, instead of having to pay some kind of Fat Penance Tax by way of being in the “plus size” section. Also, did I mention more room in the butt?

Ladies concerned about modesty: For obvious reasons, there is more crotch space in men’s pants. Embrace it and enjoy a life free from cameltoe worries and spontaneous labia-wedgies when you squat down.

All ladies: I swear to god the waists in women’s pants these days are made specifically to fit exactly nobody so that no matter what you do, your underwear will show. Men’s pants do not do this. The waists sit where they’re supposed to and will actually lay flat against the small of your back instead of flopping open to show your unmentionables to the world. If you want hiphugger jeans, buy one leg-length too small and one waist-size too large and let them hang, and they still won’t accidentally show your undies. Men’s pants will last longer. They cost less, in a lot of cases. Embrace the men’s jeans. Buy the men’s jeans. Stop buying shitty flimsy women’s jeans that wear out in six months.

AND FINALLY: to determine your size in men’s pants, take a tape measure around your waist at its smallest point. This is your waist size and will be the first number in a pair of men’s pants. Next, take the tape measure from about an inch below your no-no squares parts, and run it to your ankle. (You may need a friend or parent to help with this.) This is your inseam length, and will be the second number on a pair of men’s pants. Men’s and boys’ pants are tailored the same way, so if you have trouble finding your waist size in men’s, hop over to the boys’ section. Feel no shame. If they’d give us decent fucking pants we wouldn’t have to steal theirs, right?

[thewinterotter]

Listen you guys, I am SO MAD ABOUT THIS. I’ve seen this first post before, and recently my mom said, “Hey, did you see that post on Tumblr about shopping for jeans in the men’s department?”

And I said yeah, I’d seen it, I’ve been through the Trying To Fit Clothes On My Stupid Body wars, and this post really only applied to skinny jeans because they’re so stretchy. It couldn’t possibly work for regular jeans! I have TRIED SO MANY TIMES. I’ve always shopped in the men’s department because women’s clothes are like 90% bullshit and 10% fake pockets.

But I hadn’t seen the second addition, which gave me more hope, and I decided to just try on a few pairs when I was at Old Navy the other day. They have some “classic” jeans with no give to them at all, which is what I was trying on years ago that convinced me it just wasn’t possible. (Jeans in my price range didn’t really come with any form of stretch back then, as I recall. Textile technology is bad-ass.) But these days they mostly have “flex” jeans that have some give to them. (Women’s jeans are usually labeled “stretch” but apparently men’s have to be “flex” like they need stretchy garments so their HUGE MUSCLES don’t just TEAR THEIR CLOTHES!)

This was totally an impulse decision so I couldn’t measure myself, but I grabbed a few sizes based on what I vaguely thought my measurements probably were and decided it couldn’t possibly be worse than the endless cycle of regret, dissatisfaction, and recrimination that is trying on women’s clothing.

The first pair I tried on fit like a DREAM. I’ve been gaining weight lately which is a whole separate nightmare (mainly centered around “but I don’t WANT to buy new bras, this is bullshit!”) and the reason I need to buy new jeans because nothing freaking fits me, and I was sure these wouldn’t either, but DAMN. They’re the best pair of jeans I own. Twice as thick, pockets twice as big, legs nice and loose (they don’t even sell women’s jeans with a cut remotely similar to this), and contrary to my super dumb opinion from before this experience, they’ve got my plenty of room for all my womanly curvey bits. AND because they’re actually a relaxed fit instead of trying to cling to every inch of me, they don’t show my weight nearly as much as my women’s jeans do, they’re easier to move in, they’re not constantly inching down my hips with every move I make, and overall they just make me feel GOOD about how I look which is a strange new sensation I could definitely get used to.

It’s like a miracle. I want to cry both out of joy and because of all the shitty jeans now filling my closet when I could have been buying comfortable, relaxed, pocket-having men’s jeans all these years. Many blessings to the posters above, may your crops grow and your cows give milk and your jeans hold all the gadgets you desire.

[thatoneartyishperson]

Also: men’s pants have constant sizes that are based off of actual measurements instead of the women’s whatever-the-company-wants-to-make-the-size sizes. They’re far more reliable and your size will translate to other brands.

[inconspicuouslyevil]

@get-dunkd-on help me remember this for our next Goodwill run lmao

[fenland-witch-deactivated202005]

I HAVE to try some men’s jeans. Sick of these super skinny show everything always having to be hitched up no pocket crap jeans!

[k-lionheart-deactivated20171126]

Honestly signal boost. Because imagine this actually starts some kind of ludicrous pants revolution that ends up causing women’s pants fashion company’s sales to tank, absolutely forcing them to realize men’s pants have always had the right idea and start doing that instead of this bullshit. Like just imagine. And don’t just signal boost this. Tell every woman you know. Tell every trans friend and every curvy friend out there. You see a lady down the street, stop her and tell her you’ve discovered a new gospel and it’s purchasing men’s pants. With the way women spread information when we’re excited, the mentioned scenario could actually be hella achievable

[akreliadeklavesht-deactivated20]

PRAISE THE UNIVERSE I FOUND THIS POST AGAIN

[what-even-is-thiss]

Guys. Gals. Non binary pals. As a trans ftm person who just recently started shopping in the men’s department and has gigantic hips full of dysphoria let me tell you a thing.

Athletic cut jeans have more room in the butt. I repeat. Athletic cut jeans have more room in the butt. You don’t need to go to the dress pants to fit your lovely curvy self in there. Go to the regular section or big and tall if you’re a bit taller and/or wider, and there’ll be a little section of athletic style jeans. They’ve still got the giant blessed pockets and the room in the crotch and if you’re really curvy with a large bone structure like I am you can get yourself some quality pants.

This has been an addition by your local nb trans dude. Thank you for your time.
