hey yall! i have to move out this week and i’m a little short on the first/last/deposit for the apartment. ($300) I’m going to pawn my older DSLR camera so I hope i can get a little bit from that but i’m still kinda panicking. so I'd really appreciate it if you'd take a moment and check out my kofi, and possibly donate or buy a wallpaper: ko-fi.com/8pxl
I also offer cross stitch patterns: HERE
ANY SUPPORT WOULD MEAN THE ENTIRE WORLD TO ME, THANK YALL SM <333
"EverythingGirl.com Archive" is a personal project of mine that attempts to reconstruct the whole website, and fix/replace any broken/missing assets. I'm excited to finally show this to the public! But keep in mind the website's still a work in progress, so a lot of clickable links lead to nothing:

well shoutout to my friend @bellaleaf first and foremost for narrowing down the time frame. imp was right, the dirt gif shows up EARLY in the records. 2015. this is good. meant i didn't have to search That far, but i still nosed around 2014-2016/17 because these type of posts circulate well past their initial posting.
i used the search feature first. it's not awful for finding stuff from specific years, but reblogs are a no-go. i found plenty of gifsets that dropped around tpp's e3 teaser and started saving a shitload of links.
if a gifset had lyrics plastered onto it, i checked the blog Throroughly. every single metal gear post in their tag. i saved More links. and then i ran into @/zadornov.
a deactivated blog, of course.
i checked 'mutuals' (i assume they were mutuals if they were reblogging from one another frequently). i found plenty more of their gifsets and they were a dead-ringer for the infamous Dirt gif. same font, same style. i kept looking.
and Eventually, when searching in tumblr wasn't working, i went outside of it. pasted "zadornovs-deactivated20160503" into google and narrowed down the search through either "mgsv" or "mgs". more gifsets. this HAD to be the person.
i can't find the link right now because i dug through so fucking many but one of these posts, which i suspected was made by them, mentioned they had moved blogs. couldve been a different person, whatever, but i was lead to one called "v has come to".
link was broken.
i was about to backtrack but, on searching through someone's archive, i found That Same Blog STILL ACTIVE. and HOOOOLY SHIT there's so much in there.
i kept scrolling. dozens of fucking mgs posts. i only knew i was on the right path when, mid-2015 in this metal gear tag, i found the "dirt" gif being used as a meme. and then another. i was close. i could fucking smell it. it had to b
and there it was.
less than 200 hundred notes, the original gifset. scowl thinks it's meant to be "hurt" by nine inch nails, which i also suspect. and oh boy did it hurt. to. dig through the metal gear dirt.
I'm not a catholic and have never even seen one up close, but I think the pope should start excommunicating people on the reg again. Just start publicly going "you know what, fuck you, you can't sit with us. You're not allowed in church or heaven on the grounds of being JD Vance. Eat shit and go to hell."
Stir shit up a little. What's the point of being the mouthpiece of god if nothing you say has consequences.
