My fish came back with a chip on their fin unfortunately. But at least my experimental water effect with the glaze layering looks nice.

Blocking in the shapes with a square-shaped brush, instead of painstakingly outlining a sketch, is very satisfying

There is a werewolf in the town.

Is that bad?

There is a werewolf in the town.

I'll take that as a yes.

How do you suggest we resolve this?

Well, what exactly is the issue?

There is a werewolf in the town.

Yes, okay, I heard you the first time. Is the problem that he is sometimes a wolf, or that he is sometimes a man?

A werewolf is a werewolf. How do you suggest we resolve this?

Work with me here.

The problem is that there is a werewolf.

What do you expect? Do you want me to un-make him? There are many men in the town, and a good number of domesticated wolves. What is the problem? That he was first a man, or first a wolf? Does that even matter? Why is the werewolf an issue?

He was first a man, and now he is a werewolf. There is a werewolf in the town.

Has he actually done anything wrong?

There is a werewolf in the town.

Was this forced upon him? Or did he choose to become a werewolf?

A werewolf is a werewolf.

I see. I think I understand now.

How do you suggest we resolve this problem?

You do not want there to be a werewolf in your town. As I see it there are three options. You could force him to pick between wolf and man, an agonizing divorce from his true being, simply so you do not have a werewolf in your town. You could force him from the town, which may come to be a blessing in the long run - for him, not you. Or you could allow him to integrate and accept that, in our society of men and wolves, there also live werewolves.

There is a werewolf in the town.

Yes, there is. Isn't that beautiful?

How do you suggest we resolve this?

I am beginning to believe that the werewolf is not the problem here.

People are unfazed if you hate women but if you dislike dogs they assume you're a bad person

[lakemojave]

Tumblr users will read a post complaining about normalized misogyny and hyperfocus on your claim that it's ok to dislike dogs

[devourallusurvey]

You ever think about many peices of media have zero women and thats just perfectly normal but if a peice of media has an all female cast people get... like that? Women should be allowed to kill over this btw

same but it's black people

im going to make a few little posts on samjack storyboard artists but just for fun i want to talk abt like when i say that a person or multiple persons had drawn jack in a particular manner, i do not mean that they had very literally animated that frame. bc samjack was animated by south korean artists,i believe this is still a common practice today in television animation in the states but i know very little further details. but this is a rly fun example of what i mean, the old boards as they were done twenty six years ago were scratchy thumbnail sketches, compared to the on-model an even animated boards which are done digitally today. but sometimes an artist's personal style can rly shine thru so i hope to be able to elaborate on that part of their art

but if u are very much interested in storyboards, the season5 boards as they are presented in the dvd special features are available here on archive.org

and the episode pitch for the first four seasons can be watched here, also on archive

honestly i had uploaded a lot, but not all, of the special features on archive.org some years ago u can just watch the collection if ur interested, im particularly partial to the origami promo which was not available on dvd i had found it by chance but its adorable. anyways. i just like to talk. ok bye <3

Maybe -- just MAYBE -- don't spit on other characters and ships and works when the artist you congratulate and reblog from also draws those?

FANDOM ETIQUETTE NEEDS A RETURN SOOOO STRONGLY

[nothorses]

I cannot stress enough that I fundamentally distrust callout posts, and I will distrust you if you send them to me.

Don't get me wrong: I investigate warnings, and I act on them if they're true and relevant. But callout posts are, on a very fundamental level, not about what people say they're about. There are exceptions, but generally speaking they're made for one or more of the following reasons:

OP didn't like the subject to begin with (often for bigoted reasons), and they wanted a reason, and a following, to justify and validate that.

OP wanted to gain popularity, so they made themselves look like either a victim, a hero, or both.

OP wanted to claim victim status in a private falling-out in order to preserve good standing with their own friends/their community.

OP didn't like what the subject was saying, and wanted to silence them (often for bigoted reasons).

OP genuinely just wants "revenge" on the subject, or otherwise wants to ruin their reputation and have them sent harassment.

Again, there are exceptions: there are "callouts" that just unravel a subject's lies, or point out problems in already public actions. If OP is claiming to have been personally victimized in a legitimately serious way, and especially one that indicates the subject might be a danger to others, I'm definitely more willing to believe it- one obvious example being sexual violence.

But oftentimes, callouts are incredibly personal, misleading, emotionally manipulative, blatantly untrue, or all of the above.

This person came to me on anon; I have absolutely no way of knowing what their motives are or how trustworthy they are. There is no credibility or accountability here.

And I did read the post. Lo and behold, it's riddled with emotionally manipulative language, false accusations, and the biggest reaches I've ever seen:

"DON'T READ THIS CALLOUT, IT'S SO TRIGGERING TO EVERYONE, JUST TAKE MY WORD FOR IT. But the proof is here if you REALLY don't believe me"

"Proof" is a scarce handful of screenshots taken out of context that contain emotionally evocative language, but do not support the accusations at all.

Some accusations are genuinely just weird logic leaps with no support, others are matters of personal opinion obviously driven by bigoted motives.

OP themselves expresses very publicly that they believe people who are marginalized in the ways the subject are, who speak on that marginalization, should be silenced.

I try to assume good faith here, and I want to believe this anon was just guilt-tripped and manipulated by the post in question. I don't hold any ill will here.

But anon, I want you to ask yourself:

Are the accusations you're making something you have personally investigated and found to be true?

Does this person deserve the harassment and ostracization they will likely receive as a result of your accusations?

Will you hold yourself accountable for the damage you've caused if you're wrong?

And if you're absolutely certain you're right, come off anon and talk to me as a human being; because I can't believe you're ready to be accountable for these accusations if you won't even put your Tumblr blog behind them.

[nothorses]

I've had actual, honest-to-god callout blogs reblogging this post like "yeah I research all the claims here!! they're real and you can trust me (:" as if the entire purpose of their blog is not to encourage their followers not to check those claims themselves, not to think critically about why those claims are made in the first place, & to just rely on random strangers to tell them how to think and who to completely ostracize from potentially vital communities, support systems, and resources.

I cannot emphasize enough that if you spread "callout posts" as a fucking hobby, this post is explicitly about you.

Thinking about how wild it is that enshittification starts as a way for the rich to squeeze the populace for more money but ends up infecting everything so even luxury products decline in quality. They’ve got more money than fucking God now and for what? Literally they can’t even buy fun nice stuff for themselves because they killed craft.

Anyway this post is about Dhaka muslin but it’s also about everything.

The ancient fabric that no one knows how to make

Nearly 200 years ago, Dhaka muslin was the most valuable fabric on the planet. Then it was lost altogether. How did this happen? And can we

[eldritchwyrm]

guess it's time to post agha shahid ali's poem about dhaka muslin

[the-final-sif]

Fun fact! Revival of Dhaka Muslin has been ongoing for quite some time. The headline of the above article is very very misleading, we know exactly how Dhaka Muslin was made. The process was very well documented. We know how it was made, but colonialism ruined the fabric's production area and devalued the skills needed to make it such that they no longer existed. But the process itself was not lost.

That being said, efforts to bring it back are underway, and they have been making amazing progress, and succeed in creating Dhaka Muslin yet again.

The Muslin Miracle: A passion for revival

It all began with a search for ‘phuti karpas’ – muslin’s unique cotton plant which is known to have become extinct. However, starting in 201

This is a pretty good updated article, it has a lot of the same info as the BCC one (which also discusses some of the revival efforts) but with more of a focus on that process, an update to the story, and it details some of the other ongoing projects working on the revival!

Here's the first weaver to manage to produce a finished piece in nearly 200 years, Al Amin.

His first piece was 300 threads, according to the article they have now been able to get into the 700s for thread counts, which is absolutely incredible.

Several projects are actually underway now each with different weavers and slightly different methods, producing fabric intended to meet or best the original!

And if you're curious, "okay but can it pass through a ring" yes! Yes they can!

All three of these photos are of pieces made in the modern century, photos by Wasiul Bahar!

It's a very time consuming process, and a very expensive fabric to purchase, but love and passion for it have been steadily bringing it back!
