I was very okay and even proud of the English for this right up until "crinkle crankle"

[captainboringposts]

I love that they saved that until the very last moment.

It's like being hugged and then immediately punched in the face after.

Forgiveness is such a trap and I honestly highly recommend not forgiving people who’ve done irreparable damage in your life. Despite what people say, you don’t need to forgive someone to have peace in your life.

Anti wolf heck collar

“The purpose of the collar is to protect the dog wearing it when it has to fight the wolves. The collar base protects the dog’s throat and carotid arteries, while the spikes are intended to deter bites to the neck or even injure wolves trying to do so.”

“And what do you get from serving humans that you do not get from running free?” sneered the wolf.

“Free food, unconditional love and tactical upgrades,” replied the herding dog.

I see your anti-wolf dogs and raise you Spanish War Dogs.

[icarus-in-fl1ght-deactivated202]

I see your Spanish war dogs and raise you the Tibetan Mastiff, which was actually bred to fight tigers and has fur so thick that it doesn’t need armor

They’re also what I like to describe as ‘fuck you’ big

Facts that adults don’t tell you about bullying

- Communication doesn’t work on bullies. Telling a bully they’re making you feel bad is the wrong way to go. They want to make you feel bad. That’s the point.

- being kind to a bully doesn’t always mean they’ll stop. Sometimes it means they’ll just use your kindness to manipulate you while still continuing to bully you.

- not every bully has a sympathetically tragic home life. Sometimes people are just mean. Sometimes people just get off on hurting others.

- on that note, a tough home life is a reason, not an excuse. You don’t have to put up with bullying because somebody’s life sucks, just like you don’t have to let someone mug you because they’re broke.

- in order to forgive someone, they have to apologize first. If your bully has not apologized to you, you do not owe them anything.

- getting bullied as a kid can still mess you up in adult life. Maybe kids grow out of being bullies, but the marks they left often don’t go away.

- there are ways to get people to stop bullying you, but they almost all involve being mean back.

- as long as parents keep raising shitty bullying kids, there will be bullies. No amount of assemblies and hand-drawn posters will fix the problem. It’s the parents’ fault.

[saint-ambrosef]

-a lot of bullies dont think of themselves as bullies, either

[mx-t4t0]

- bullies do not bully you because they like you

- getting bullied as a kid can even mess you up as a teen

- ignoring does not work. it does not make them go away. it’s a lie told to make kids less “”problematic””

- do not feel bad about fighting back.

A suggestion/proposal to help artists avoid unintentional whitewashing

I’ve seen a couple of posts in the last little while that deal with either accusations made against artists for whitewashing OCs, or dealing with colour theory and its application to painting skin. It’s true that skintones are incredibly difficult to nail properly, especially if you only have one or two reference pictures to work with. Most artists don’t whitewash intentionally, but if it happens to your commission, it’s a difficult conversation to have regardless. Canon characters aside, what I’m proposing is that if you are commissioning an artist to draw your OC, it might be helpful to use an established makeup shade to indicate the base colour of your OC. 

The only reason I’m suggesting makeup specifically is that it’s easier to find a model wearing that makeup shade than it would be to use a colour code to indicate what skintone you would prefer. If you find a model wearing that shade, then you can send the artist a swatch or guide of the makeup to use as a base colour, and avoid miscommunication via reference pictures with varying lighting. 

Model skintone reference (example):

Swatch/guide reference (example):

(These are both from Fenty, which is well-regarded as having an actually wide and accurate colour range, but correct me if I’m wrong)

Notice how the colour of the makeup that the model is wearing sometimes seems slightly darker than the model’s face as a result of the reflected light/highlights? I think that is one source of error that can arise from colour picking from a face. That being said, this doesn’t take into account different lighting, but it can help serve as a base to work around. It’s also important for artists to double check skintones with the client as they make progress. As an example, I did this when I commissioned @hansaera​ for this piece - I told her Eli’s skintone is around a MAC NC35, and the piece came out perfectly.
