If your reflection is missing

1. Do not touch the mirror. If you have already touched the mirror, SKIP TO STEP 15 IMMEDIATELY.

2. First, make sure that your reflection is really gone. Make sure that you are visible. If you are not visible, the lack of a reflection is normal.

3. Check another mirror to see if your reflection is there. If so, the mirror without a reflection is simply broken and needs replacement.

If you have confirmed you are visible and your reflection is gone from all mirrors:

4. Do not touch the mirror.

5. Fill a bowl with water. Overnight, leave it at the base of the mirror nearest to your bed.

6. When you wake, if the bowl is empty, your reflection simply has business elsewhere for a while. You may rest knowing your reflection will return when they are ready.

7. If the bowl is still full, your reflection has been taken.

If your reflection is gone:

8. Be ready. They may come for you.

9. Prepare for a journey. With your reflection gone, you may pass through the mirror, but first, be sure you are prepared.

10. Bring food and water. Beyond the mirror, eat or drink nothing unless it has specifically been offered to you. Dying of hunger or thirst is better than the alternative.

11. Tie one end of a ball of string around your ankle, and the other to something on this side of the mirror, like the foot of your bed. This will not help, but sometimes reassurance is necessary.

12. Do not trust what your eyes or ears show you. Count the number and direction of each step you make. Make no marks. Take nothing with you. Leave nothing behind.

13. What state you find your reflection in will vary. I cannot advise you on this. Trust your instinct. Do not trust them.

14. Follow the steps you made back to the mirror. Do not let your reflection ahead of you. They will be grateful for your rescue, but they may still try to leave, trapping you in their place.

IF YOU HAVE ALREADY TOUCHED THE MIRROR:

15. I’m sorry.

16. Try to wash the chrome off your hands. You will not succeed.

17. Wait. Be ready.

18. They are coming for you. There is nothing you can do.

19. I’m sorry.

honestly? starting to flip the canvas during the drawing process improved my art so much yeehaw

[rikebe]

top 10 art tips from chaboy in no particular order: 

1. canvas flipping good even if painful 

2. draw whatever makes u happy. be self indulgent. draw nonsense that caters to only you personally 

3. just fucking fake being able to draw things like hands and eventually you can actually do it without even thinking about it 

4. take breaks when it doesn’t come out right 

5. remember that you’re the god of this reality and can draw WHATEVER THE FUCK. be absolutely drunk with power. nobody can stop you. unless its like morally wrong like dont draw incest or whatever. incest is bad still

6. use references 

7. originality is a myth and literally every artist started copying their style from something or someone, that’s how you develop your own style. everyone does it. people who make fun of kids for copying the styles of their favourite shows/artists can choke 

10. litchrally just have fun

rdj kissing josh brolin on the lips is such a power move. the man doesn’t give a single fuck. he’s the male protagonist archetype of this century but he will kiss as many guys as he pleases because he can and there’s nothing hollywood can do about it

[tinynebula]

i love how the media has rdj as this manly hetero Man Of Iron™ but he lives on a diferent dimension where sexuality is whatever the fuck he wants it to be. he will kiss man and women as he pleases. he will dress in pink and yellow and not give a single fuck.

[iwantcupcakes]

MIRA–

Y SU FAVORITO–

[theironman]

robert has always not given a single fuck for people’s views in what he should wear and how openly affectioned he can be with men. he’s not here for fragile masculinity and heterosexuality. he will continue to kiss, hug and shower them all with love.

[lostinthoughtsandfeelings]

😍

[daydur]

Since the photos above focus on him kissing men, I feel the need to also add a few examples of his i don’t give a fuck outfits:

[iolanthee]

1) he’s a fashion disaster

2) all the guys getting kisses from him are literally b e a m i n g . they love it. they want more

Support an Up & Coming Artist

Hey everyone! I want to take a moment to tell you about an up and coming artist that I am supporting! I am a supporter of her arts and a patron on her patreon. She will be graduating at the end of this term and could use a lot of support as she starts creating her own studio! 

Holly (my sister-in-law) is a fantastic artist, and there are so many ways you can offer support! (Along with pictures of what she does!) 

***Art inspired by Detroit:Become Human. Little Chibi Conner (RK800) cuddling a Sumo Plushie

Buy her a coffee 

She currently is doing a promotion through “Ko-fi” that if you donate $3 or more, you can request a custom sketch!  I absolutely adore her sketches, and she is willing to do fandom sketches, Original Character sketches, and pretty much anything else!  She has done a lot of sketches for my writing and stories, as well as just of my favorite characters!  Her only rule is no NSFW or gore. 

If you have a few dollars to spare, you should request something! Just type your request, username, and platform (Tumblr) into the message section of the Ko-fi portal when you donate so she knows how to get it to you! $3 per character, which is the cheapest rate I have ever seen for fanart! (Seriously, my Supernatural sketch with my favorite 3 angels cost me about $40, and they were also pencil sketches, so this is an amazing rate!!!) 

***Inspired by Supernatural. Castiel being hopelessly caught in a Chinese Finger Trap

Check out her Patreon 

As some of you may already know, I am a patron on Holly’s Patreon. She has subscriptions from $1 (exclusive posts and pictures) to $25 (a custom Tarot Vixen Studios screen printed items each month–like t-shirts, bags, and more). 

I am on her $12 tier, where I get all of the perks of the previous tiers as well as a custom sketch each month! I have put pictures from these below in case you want to check them out! But this is a great place to like, follow, and subscribe if you want to support her art! 

***This was a Multi-fandom sketch I got as a bonus for my Birthday from my Patreon tier! Fandoms include Supernatural, Hobbit, and Detroit:Become Human

Check out her Etsy Store

Holly does more than just sketching, she also does screen printing, jewelry making, metals works, just so much amazing stuff! She will be updating with more things over the course of the week as she starts putting her amazing work out there for purchase! 

I absolutely adore her work, and even have some of her works (I love my “Get Shit Done” shirt…that I wear and then binge watch Netflix in). Definitely go give her a look! 

For those of you who are curious what sketches you can get…

Here are some of the sketches that Holly has done for me (or others) through the Ko-fi donations and Patreon Tiers! 

***A Dungeons & Dragons Original Character’s sketch. The entire party was in on this one! (And a ship!) 

***A character sketch based on my TTB series. The reader jokingly calls Ori and Oridillo, and now I have a picture for it! 

***A D&D character sketch

***Special sketches for autograph opportunities at Conventions! 

If you have time, and would like to support an up and coming artist, be sure to check out her work and like, follow, or subscribe! If you would like to find her on Tumblr, check out @tarotvixen or you could go on Instagram @Tarotvixen

He was a young artist employed by the Disney studio, but tasked with the entry-level job of finishing off the work of the animators and crafting the “in-between” animations that completed the characters’ movements. Wong had learned that studio executives were creating a film from the new novel, Bambi, A Life in the Woods by Felix Salten. Tom says the young artist read the book and without consulting his supervisor, “took the script and painted some visual concepts to set the mood, color and the design.” 

His sketches recalled the lush mountain and forest scenes of Sung dynasty landscape paintings. His initiative paid off. Walt Disney, who was looking for something new for the film, was captivated and personally directed that Wong be promoted. Today, top animators and illustrators revere Wong’s work. Children today are as enchanted by the misty, lyrical brushstrokes of Wong’s colorful nature scenes, inspired by his training at Otis College of Art and self-study of Sung Dynasty art

Girls look out. The world is still not safe even in 2018. Even if the world is watching. Even if its a funeral. its somehow YOU’RE fault for dressing too slutty. is somehow YOU’RE fault for making them look twice. its somehow YOU’RE fault for tempting them.

Now i want you to look at ALL the pictures and realize what kind of world this has been and always will be.

First we have the CLEAR fear and uncomfortably of Ariana Grande shown. And no one does a thing yes? She us forced to smile and not draw attention as he touches her inappropriately. Touching her breasts IN A DAM CHURCH. Wrong and wrong.

Now lets take a look at this i found.

Oh fuck no. Yes that is a man of GOD saying ariana got what she deserved. that it was her fault. that he just got there first and almost a subliminal high five from all the other men in the room.

Ladies. THIS is rape culture.

THIS is assult.

THIS is NOT ok. and never will be.

this will never be ok. i dont care if its a stroke of the arm. i dont care if its a slap on the ass. MEN HAVE NO RIGHT TO EVER TOUCH YOU WITHOUT CONSENT.

you have EVERY RIGHT to wear what you want. you have EVERY RIGHT to feel safe wherever you go EVEN TO A FUNERAL ON LIVE FUCKING TV.

AND MEN IF YOU SEE THIS BLATANT DISRESPECT AND HARASSMENT YOU BEST STEP THE FUCK UP. imagine if someone did that to your sister or mother. Step UP. Anyone. STEP UP AND HELP.

Ladies protect yourself. realize this is still the reality. Dont take it lying down. fight back. You have a sisterhood behind you.
