we'll walk beneath the rusted sky

I fic and art. Tumblr is my happy place. If you want to see just my art, you can find it at @teddylarchiviste. Like my art or writing? I love coffee! I tag everything logically, so if you blacklist triggers, my blog should be relatively safe.

This is a pinned post.

'Sup, Tumblr. I like to draw, sculpt, and punch things. Sometimes I write. I reblog a lot of Hazbin Hotel, Magnus Archives, D&D, art, comics, Stucky, Spideypool, Phlint, nature, music (especially 90s and early 00s), Pokemon, 00Q, animals, space, girls, games, cool home decor, and miscellaneous interesting things. I tag everything obsessively and logically (e.g., stucky art, 00q, gender, depression, etc.), so if you have your triggers blacklisted, my blog should be pretty safe.

I occasionally ramble about my various roleplays or personal life or mental health; feel free to blacklist “teddy talks” and/or “2am ramblings” if you don’t want to see those posts.

Note to minors: I’m well beyond adolescence, and this blog may occasionally (albeit rarely) contain NSFW content, depending on your definition of NSFW. You’re welcome to follow and interact as your laws permit, but please do so with caution. The internet is wilderness, and you are responsible for curating your online experience.

If you message me just to try and get me to commission you, I will block you. I'm not sure if this is an advanced form of spambot or if the Helluva/Hazbin fandom is just weirdly overflowing with overly direct artists who lack any sense of decorum, but no thank you and good-night.

Here’s the thing: authors know when they get a rec on an older story. There’s a telltale uptick of kudos (with a 10-15% comment rate if you’re lucky) in your digest email.

The thing is, there’s no way to know where these people are coming from. In the before, when fandom was more in the corners we all knew about, you could search LJ or a message board or whatever social bookmarking site we were using. You could join the community and participate.

You could get a little dopamine hit by seeing someone tell their friends why they loved your story.

Anymore, those recs are hidden in discords, or in tiktoks or instagram slideshows that you can’t search for. They’re inaccessible, not discoverable unless you’re already there. You may never know why 27 people left kudos on an old story of yours, what they liked and found in your writing. You just get the thumbs up and a kinda lonely feeling, cause these could be your people. You could like them, maybe. You could be friends.

But you’ll never find out why they stopped by, or what people are saying about you behind your back, and that’s sad.

So thank you to the people who still do public rec lists on this webbed site. You are my sunshine, and I’m appreciative of all of you.

Ummm she's literally sensitive :/

[velteris]

yeah i drive the truck that isekais all those lonely 20yo NEETs and bored salarymen. it’s a really hard job. they keep sending me to workplace counselling after each hit. “it’s normal to feel guilt at ending someone’s life,” they say. how do i tell them that’s not what makes me feel guilty? “but it’s okay. he’ll live a better life in another world.” yeah, with 100 girls who could have lived normal lives but got drafted into being in these boring dudes’ harems. how many women’s lives have i ruined. and they don’t even know. they don’t even know

[mcgravin]

Sounds like you need "His Soul is Marching On to Another World; or, the John Brown Isekai" by CabbagePreacher, an actual fic on AO3 about famed abolitionist martyr John Brown getting isekaied to such a world and going on a rampage abolishing harems.

I FEEL INSANE???

no leaves, but plenty of eyes.

inspired by me spacing out on a long drive & staring at trees. this happened earlier this year, and birches ended up growing leaves before i finished the doll.

all branches & roots are made of metal wire + hot glue, which makes them poseable and also keeps them from snapping.

i felt like these tags really added to the experience, thanks @cynderxdustypaws for your knowledge

[naamahdarling]

This is one of the most powerful images I have ever seen, and I will reblog it every single time because every single time it brings tears to my eyes.

This is canon to me.

Cale would definitely say something like this to Alberu after becoming delirious enough due to blood loss.

neocities guide - why you should build your own html website

do you miss the charm of the 90s/00s web where sites had actual personality instead of the same minimalistic theme? are you feeling drained by social media and the constant corporate monopoly of your data and time? do you want to be excited about the internet again? try neocities!!

what is neocities?

neocities is a free hosting website that lets you build your own html website from scratch, with total creative control. in their own words: "we are tired of living in an online world where people are isolated from each other on boring, generic social networks that don't let us truly express ourselves. it's time we took back our personalities from these sterilized, lifeless, monetized, data mined, monitored addiction machines and let our creativity flourish again."

why should I make my own website?

web3 has been overtaken by capitalism & conformity. websites that once were meant to be fun online social spaces now exist solely to steal your data and sell you things. it sucks!! building a personal site is a great way to express yourself and take control of your online experience.

what would I even put on a website?

the best part about making your own site is that you can do literally whatever the hell you want! focus on a specific subject or make it a wild collection of all your interests. share your art! make a shrine for one of your interests! post a picture of every bird you see when you step outside! make a collection of your favorite blinkies! the world is your oyster !! here are some cool example sites to inspire you: recently updated neocities sites | it can be fun to just look through these and browse people's content! space bar | local interstellar dive bar creature feature | halloween & monsters big gulp supreme peanutbuttaz | personal site dragodiluna linwood | personal site patho grove | personal site
