Not going to name any names but please don't tag me in reposted fanart. I appreciate you tagging me in content related to my ship but if you're tagging me in a fanart, please, PLEASE make sure that :

a) they at least care enough to give credit to the original artist (credit to original artist / not my art etc. Is not acceptable, I want links to the source and the name of the artist themselves)

b) They are the artist themselves

Most of the fanart you've tagged me so far are from artists that I personally follow on twitter so if I see you tagging me in those fanarts without proper crediting, I will not respond at all.

I used to be a fanart reposter due to my ignorance about the matter but I've learned from my mistakes and instead of waiting for someone to call you out on that, please learn to give credit to the original artist if you ever decide to repost a fanart, if you can't find them then DON'T AT ALL. Rebloggers too, if you see an uncredited art, DO NOT REBLOG IT unless you're 100% sure that the uploader is the artist. I just can't stress this enough because I'm tired of seeing people reblogging reposted art on my dash and I really don't want to be the one to have to tell you to take it down.

If you see a fanart you'd like to share with me but you have no idea who is the artist, just share it with me through DMs and I'd probably have an idea who it belongs to.

Hey what if I openly gasped in a crowded Tube Station

Okay so I made a Google Docs thing comparing what I thought of the past couple of Walt Disney Animation movies VS the past couple of Pixar movies

Can't believe that the only recent movie from Walt Disney Animation that could be considered peak was Encanto, while Pixar has consistently put out bangers.

I don't want England to win the World Cup for two reasons:

I'm Irish. BOOOOOOOOO HISSSSSSS

We're going to London on holiday next week and they're absolutely going to shut down the streets because of all the football fans celebrating. We were in London last year when Wimbledon was happening and travel was A NIGHTMAAAARE

I.

I found this image in my phone gallery and I cannot for the life of me remember why I made it.

Not complaining though. Just.

Confused.

I think the biggest power high I've ever had in my life was during the Pokémon Go Summer (and September) of 2016, smack dab in the middle of secondary school where my classmate's perception of me went from "That weird autistic girl who likes Pokémon" to "All knowing guru you can ask for Pokémon Go advice"

No joke, I had someone recognise me while I was out for a walk in the town and they literally chased me down from across the street to ask me how to get a Vaporeon. And the best part is, I had the answer. Told her you had to name your Eevee "Rainer" to get Vaporeon specifically.

I ended up walking with her to the park and there was a whole bunch of people congregating there, also playing Pokémon Go, including other people from my school and it was awesome.

The greatest irony is that despite knowing about Pokémon, I didn't know about the ins and outs of Pokémon Go itself because the app was incompatible with the phone I had at the time so I hadn't played it yet.

Had a fever dream last night that I thought was wildly entertaining. I can not for the life of me explain why I was so invested in it, but it was one of those dreams that I remember a lot of details of because it happened right before I woke up in the morning.

So, in the dream, it starts on a beach, yeah? Some big ass Pokéball has fallen from the sky. And I do mean BIGASS. You know that Basketball 2 Tumblr post?

It was like that but a bit bigger. So the military shows up with a few tanks and a bulldozer because this big thing fell from the sky onto a beach so OBVIOUSLY it must be a space craft or something and it needs to be moved. For tourism reasons.

Somebody objects to this because what if moving the big round space thing does something dangerous? And the general just laughs at him and the soldiers all point and laugh like they're characters in a freaking preschoolers show.

The general says, and I quote "What, it's not like it's going to unleash some giant terrifying monster!"

The bulldozer rolls the Pokéball over onto it's button and unleashes some giant terrifying monster.

It's a Flareon. A 60 foot tall Kaiju Flareon because it came out of a huge Pokéball. I believe my brain picked Flareon because I found my Comfy Friends plushie to hug yesterday because I'm currently going through a double whammy of a migraine and a cold.

Apparently nobody in this world knows what a Pokémon is so the army screams like little girls and opens fire. The Flareon gets really sad and scared because miscellaneous missiles and stuff being hurled at you hurts a lot so it runs off into the city and the army's like FUCK FUCK FUCK

Cue your average Kaiju movie scene, people running and screaming etc etc etc. Except Kaiju Flareon isn't malicious, it's just looking around at everything like :OOOO and :3. A dog starts barking at it and the Flareon mistakes this for play time and starts wagging it's tail and going "Arf arf arf :3" too, which scares the dog off and makes Flareon sad again.

Now there's a crowd of people standing around because the giant monster just exhibited suspiciously dog like behaviour and so far hasn't tried to hurt or eat anyone???? The only real damage so far is a couple of cars because it used them as chew toys and spat them out because they got oil in its mouth.

Flareon notices this crowd of people and is very excited because it reeeeeeally wants belly rubs. So it rolls onto it's back with it's legs dangling in the air, expecting belly rubs.

Nobody wants to go anywhere near it and Flareon gets ABSOLUTELY HEARTBROKEN, like, it specifically asked for belly rubs, why are none of these tiny Trainers giving it belly rubs??? 🥺 Did it do something bad????? 🥺🥺 Is she a bad Pokémon?????? 🥺🥺🥺🥺

I drew a diagram of this part because I just need to convey how absolutely sad this Flareon looked.

So one Brave or Stupid™ guy breaks out of the crowd like "I want to pet the giant monster" and people start trying to hold him back like NO DON'T PET THE GIANT MONSTER and the guy's like

So he stacks a bunch of random objects to make a staircase ala Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom to get up onto the Flareon and gives her the belly rubs. Flareon flips over onto her belly and accidentally squishes the dude but he is miraculously unharmed, and the entire crowd is like "Hey, this monster is basically a giant puppy!" and gives Flareon LOTS of head pats and now everybody is best friends. The military shows up again and people start yelling at them and calling them assholes for trying to hurt the big Flareon and so the military just... Goes home I guess???

So basically the whole Kaiju situation is resolved because the Public™ went "Big doggy :)" and basically adopted the Flareon as a city mascot and named it Big Floof. There's basically a montage of antics like Big Floof chasing a giant beach ball around at the seaside, getting escorted places by fire trucks, getting a huge dog bowl custom made for it etc etc etc

Then a fucking KAIJU SKARMORY maybe four times the Kaiju Flareon's size shows up out of the blue, and I anticipated a big battle because clearly Flareon has a type advantage and would want to defend its new home but my brain went "Nah".

What happened was that the military showed up again and the general yelled at the Kaiju Skarmory on a megaphone like "I'M CALLING YOUR MOTHER!" and unfortunately that's when I woke up and I was annoyed at that because I really want to find out how that would have went.

Who is this Skarmory's mother? Why would that threat work on a rampaging Kaiju? Would an even bigger Kaiju Skarmory have shown up like, idk, Cloverfield? I have so many questions.

Anyway I would have wanted to give the big fluffy doggy head pats as well
