hot artists don't gatekeep

I've been resource gathering for YEARS so now I am going to share my dragons hoard

Floorplanner. Design and furnish a house for you to use for having a consistent background in your comic or anything! Free, you need an account, easy to use, and you can save multiple houses.

Comparing Heights. Input the heights of characters to see what the different is between them. Great for keeping consistency. Free.

Magma. Draw online with friends in real time. Great for practice or hanging out. Free, paid plan available, account preferred.

Smithsonian Open Access. Loads of free images. Free.

SketchDaily. Lots of pose references, massive library, is set on a timer so you can practice quick figure drawing. Free.

SculptGL. A sculpting tool which I am yet to master, but you should be able to make whatever 3d object you like with it. free.

Pexels. Free stock images. And the search engine is actually pretty good at pulling up what you want.

Figurosity. Great pose references, diverse body types, lots of "how to draw" videos directly on the site, the models are 3d and you can rotate the angle, but you can't make custom poses or edit body proportions. Free, account option, paid plans available.

Line of Action. More drawing references, this one also has a focus on expressions, hands/feet, animals, landscapes. Free.

Animal Photo. You pose a 3d skull model and select an animal species, and they give you a bunch of photo references for that animal at that angle. Super handy. Free.

Height Weight Chart. You ever see an OC listed as having a certain weight but then they look Wildly different than the number suggests? Well here's a site to avoid that! It shows real people at different weights and heights to give you a better idea of what these abstract numbers all look like. Free to use.

I was today years old when I learned that when you type “otp: true” in AO3 search results it filters out fics with additional ships, leaving only the fics where your otp is the main ship

[downtroddendeity]

Here’s a cheatsheet of all the available hidden search functions. “-creators:[whatever]” is another exclusion that can be particularly useful.

Holy shit. Rt to save time

I heard reference to something about how all anime are required to have good looking cabbage because of That One Time. So simply looking up "anime cabbage" I found the source.

Some harem anime way back in the day had an episode where the characters cooked, and they animated cabbage so terribly like this it left a bad mark on the anime community forever. Apparently this is part of the reason why all food usually looks good in anime, even moreso than the regular show sometimes. With cabbage being especially well drawn.

A complaint, apparently in a paper.

The first show when released internationally was reanimated in this part.

And high quality or low quality cabbage is sometimes referenced.

I learned of this because the most recent Hologra episode has noel eating cabbage, tearing apart a fine quality cabbage into two low poly halves.

i love learning about other cultures' memes, especially like this

"some harem anime back in the day"

oh, Brighter than the Dawning Blue, the people have forgotten you, your greatest meme being reduced to a historical footnote on a Tumblr post that starts with "I heard reference to something" and where the replies assume the meme was only in Japan

nobody remembers how an eroge known for its beautiful art was given clunky animation without even a permanent staff so the animators were always learning how to draw the characters anew on a low budget

nobody remembers how the bulk of the plot, even if it wasn't great to begin with, was cut and replaced with stupid filler and random running jokes nobody thought were funny. how the political and magic plotlines were constantly sidelined so the characters could cook in a restaurant, dodge an anime-only paparazzo who kept taking upskirt shots because somebody thought it was funny, or wreck the house taking a machine gun to a roach infestation

nobody remembers nose pinching on a giant wedding ring in space

nobody remembers how execs were sure this was going to be a hit, despite the paltry production values and how it went up against KyoAni's Kanon adaptation and a Tokimeki Memorial spinoff in the same season, and so merch shops and cons were filled with Feena figures and body pillows for the next year

the children have forgotten you, Brighter than the Dawning Blue, until one day somebody stumbles upon you looking for a good anime and gets smacked in the face with crap

but I remember. oh, I remember.

The whole self love thing is good and all but some people can’t fathom being loved. They can’t imagine there being anything good about them. So they can’t simply just stop doing unhealthy things, there’s a process.

[sandersstudies]

Before self love you have to invoke self tolerance and self neutrality.

[sandersstudies]

If you can’t say “I love my body!” say “my body gets me from place to place.”

If you can’t say “I’m beautiful,” begin by shutting down the “I’m ugly” thoughts and saying “I’m a person.”

If you can’t say “I’m valuable” begun by shutting down the “I’m worthless” thoughts and say “all people deserve basic respect, and I’m a person.”

If you can’t say “I’m important,” or “I’m kind” say “I am the one who waters my plant every week” or “I am the one who tips the kind barista down the street” or “I am the one who makes sure my dog does not eat plastic” or “I am the one who leaves long comments on people’s fan fictions.”

[closetedguyy]

I’ve genuinely never seen a way to bridge the gap, especially body-wise. There’s loads about self-confidence and loving your body EVERYWHERE, but no one really explains how to get there. It’s great to have the former, but I’m glad this info is out there.

Happy Honu - Persona 3 themed island

Happy P3R launch day!! To celebrate, I'm excited to share with everyone my Persona 3 themed island: Happy Honu!

Beau is allowed to be in the shot because he's a cutie.

Dream Address: DA-5896-8360-6593

Persona 3 is up there among my absolute favorite games ever, so being able to memorialize it in island form gives me so much joy! I hope that my island brings a smile to your face as you play through the remake!

Some more photos under the cut~

Hey fun fact, if you write fuck in the tags your post wont show up in any tag, so uuuuuh heads up

[princessparadoxical]

Also fun fact, adding “porn” in your reblog tags (e.g. “history porn” or “fashion porn”) means that those posts won’t show up when you search your own blog.

[uozlulu]

Wank too. It’s why I changed all my fandom #wank posts to fandom #dramaz posts

[vorpalgirl]

….well this is a psa that needs to go around

[spacemancharisma]

I tagged one of my drawings as “well mark me down as both scared and horny” and it vanished from the other tags until I removed that so… “horny” too, apparently

[nerdgasrnz]

One of my comics wasn’t showing up in tumblr tags until I removed all my tags with the crass language in it. (”shitposting” and “bitch” were the 2 I suspected) Then it conveniently started appearing publicly in the tags.

[raeseddon]

Oh my god this site really did become catholic

[hjbender]

The following tags are (also) no longer searchable:

erotic orgasm bdsm sexual* vagina breasts foreskin suicide semen ejaculation foreplay masturbation

*Note: this includes combined search terms such as “sexual health”, “sexual help”, “sexual orientation”, etc. 

Tags that are still searchable:

white pride white power whites only aryan volkisch n*gger ch*nk and probably every racial slur you can think of, I was too nauseated to look anymore

[sophus-b]

Speaking of the aforementioned censored tags:

sexual is censored but sex isn’t

vagina is censored but penis isn’t

wank is censored but wanker and bugger aren’t

And here’s some additional tags that seem to have been screened:

lolita is censored, because screw you if you want to talk about literature or Japanese fashion

sexing is censored; animal husbandry is risque now

gore, including cw gore, because content warnings are forbidden

pedophile but not pedophilia for some reason; heads up for content warnings there, too

ass… and butt as well, because even if you have to be 13 to get an account on this site, the censorship is apparently operating at elementary school level

bondage, because you are not allowed to quote Harriet Tubman, Abraham Lincoln, or Nelson Mandela in the tags now

threesome is censored, but thankfully triad and OT3 aren’t (yet)

oral is censored, including compounds such as oral contraceptive, oral defense, and oral tradition

sadism is censored, (masochism isn’t)

labia, vulva, clit, and clitoris are all censored, but testicles, gonads, balls, cojones, and bollocks aren’t

cunt and pussy are censored too, but again, not penis

cock is though; you can’t “cock an eyebrow” or “hear the cock crow” in the tags

dick, including names such as, for example, Dick Cheney

[mojoflower]

@happyfatcatfornow​ said:  oral is censored? But what about simply discussing dental health and hygiene? This kind of coding is what happens when you put lazy developers in charge of indexing a site. 

Have a look at this insanity.  (And same thing if you do “search’ instead of ‘tagged’.):

[happyfatcatfornow]

So this is concerning.  Here is a screenshot of a google search for tumblr & #oral. You’ll see that there are some ‘oral sex’ items in here but most of these  are not at all oral sex.  So their decision to ban the term ‘oral’ wasn’t based on any risk on the site.
