I don’t know what to do with grey.

I'm Design student at University of Lapland. This blog is collection of things I find interesting. To name a few; design, art, dragons and really a lot of things.

This is all way more important than you’d think. Russia is leading a post-truth disinformation campaign designing to obscure what they’re doing (even arguing that Ukraine is invading Russia!) so being as accurate as you can be is already a form of resistance

This is one of the greatest posts I’ve ever witnessed. The payoff was amazing.

It’s time we talk about SimsDom again.

Most of you probably already know who and what Simsdom is but for those that don’t, Simsdom (or SimsDomination) claim to essentially be a CC finds website, which in essence I suppose they are… But don’t get your hopes up for a Lana replacement because they are SO much more than that. And not in a good way.

I know this is an old subject, and most people probably thought it was all over and done with, but Simsdom is still around and what’s worse is that I’ve noticed a growing trend among my fellow Game Changers who create content for Youtuber and Twitch/Mixer of promoting the site by using it to do CC shopping haul videos and streams, which is encouraging their viewers to use Simsdom. I’m not going to name names or point fingers but it made me realise that maybe some people don’t understand just how bad Simsdom is for the community in general, but especially for the amazingly dedicated CC creators of Simblr. And it’s just so disappointing to see people that some many in the community, including myself, look up to promoting this garbage site!

If you’re curious to know why this is a problem, I’ll explain under the cut. If not, keep scrolling… But don’t say I didn’t warn you.

I personally cannot understand that people don’t recognize these sites from their layout alone. Simsdom looks like an add, has adds and that telling double “download” here button. The site is simple in style and very hard to browse without subjecting yourself to lots of clicking. Now I know my suspicions where right from the start.

I,m back

For a moment atleast, but my art blog seems to be buggy as hell... Okay it is just flacked as explicit... For one nude drawing. I have never posted anything other than mild fan service..

I think the real problem here is that big media corporations seem to believe that social media userbases are fungible, and persist in acting on this belief no matter how many times it’s demonstrated to be wrong.

There’s a specific pattern of events that plays out over and over (and over) again, and it looks something like this:

1. Social media platform becomes popular

2. Social media platform is purchased by big media corporation in order to gain access to it large user base

3. Big media corporation realises that social media platform’s demographics are not the demographics they want to sell things to.

4. Big media corporation institutes measures to drive away “undesirable” users, apparently in the honest belief that the outgoing users will automatically be replaced by an equal number of new, more demographically desirable users

5. This does not, in fact, occur

6. Social media platform crashes and burns

You’d think that, by the sheer law of averages, at least one person who’s capable of learning from experience would become involved in this whole process at some point.

On second thought, winding down my tumblr for now. It is truly heartbreaking to see my community to panic and suffer from this decision. It is infuriating.

PS.

Jos ne tietäs mitä paskaa suomitumppu puhuu koko ajan niin kohta flägättäis kaikki tekstipohjasetki postaukset. Nautin siitä paskasta ja nyt se viedään taiteesta pois.

REBLOG IF NAZIS OFFEND YOU MORE THAN NIPPLES.

[judelaw]

I love how their post says “A better, more positive Tumblr” as if female nipples are what’s ruining the experience on this website and not bullies, racists, homophobes and actual nazis

[whitmanic]

Remember when Tumblr was assigning all LGBT content as NSFW, and now we have really weird liberal policing of people’s “female” bodies in the rules? That’s an issue. The issue isn’t that people can’t nut, it’s a conversation about the severity of NSFW content, and what is and isn’t labeled NSFW. If you’re watching people a little uncomfortable that a site would just blanket ban all content marked NSFW, and you think they’re just Dumb Horny Idiots, like….. That’s part of the problem Bc there is a nuance here and Tumblr ISN’T reacting correctly in this situation. I’m gonna try to shut up more now but God it’s just frustrating

[jakob-has-rabies]

This is either the biggest coincidence or tumblr literally walked in my house and said “fuck sex workers” then kicked me in the face lmao.

[thankyousirmayihaveanother]

just to be clear, I’m staying here as long as this site functions. I have 0 intentions of deleting this blog, I will go down with this ship if only to see exactly how bad it gets

[avoiding-the-parentals-deactiva]

Reblog if you're gay, lesbian, bisexual, pansexual, asexual, transgender or a supporter.

[maremotos]

This should be reblogged by everyone. Even if you’re straight, you should be a supporter.

I’ve seen posts about digital artists problems, and traditional artists problems, but I’d like to make a post about some of the frustrations that arise when your both.

I’m either good at drawing in my sketchbook or I’m good at drawing on my intuos, I just can’t be both.

I have to pick the canvas size???

Going to lineart something digitally that you sketched on paper but by the time you’re about done it looks like trash.

“AGH WRONG LAYER”

“hhnnnNNNNGGGG THIS DOESN’T HAVE” LAYERS”

“I’VE BEEN COLORING FOR SO LONG I FORGOT HOW TO SKETCH”

I wanna draw on the computer but I’m scrolling on tumblr instead

I wanna draw in my book but it’s on the other side of the room and I’m too lazy to go get it

“Where’s my wacom pen??” meets “where’s a fricking eraser????”

I tried zooming in on my sketchbook one time
