Growing Strong

My tumblr is truly just random.

frieren is about discovering what makes life worth living after you lost someone before you realized how you felt about them. dunmeshi is about how we are all animals in the end, and confronting the monstrous reality of consumption, in all its forms. witch hat is about how the technology that makes our society function could be used to make people’s lives better, but especially disabled people are left out, and those in power choose very specifically who actually benefits. how fitting that three of the most popular and poignant fantasy stories of the 2010s-2020s are about grief, consumption, and power.

A drawing I did some time ago for the Frieren collab I was a part of I decided to draw Frieren with her teacher, Flamme, and later on with her apprentice, Fern. Having the passage of time as a central focus of the series, I depicted different phases in Frieren's life through the four seasons, each season reflecting a different stage of life 🌻🍂❄️🌷

And for the lady, perhaps reassurance without having to ask for it?

Cemeteries are not wastes of space. Historical cemeteries ESPECIALLY are not wastes of space. The fact developers are continuously foaming at the mouth to destroy them and put a strip mall up in their place should make you even more determined to help maintain them. In urban areas, they are a haven for wildlife. They are a green space. If you are too afraid of death to utilize them for that purpose, that is on you.

Thank you. Historically cemeteries were treated as parks, and it wasn't uncommon to see people not only enjoying the grounds but actually playing games and having picnics there. Somewhere along the line we decided that these activities were inappropriate and that cemeteries were off limits and now people see them as wasted space because they feel too awkward to enjoy them.

They're not only beautiful green spaces but excellent public displays of history and art history, and if you care to look closely you can find out a lot just by studying stones.

For example- notice how few modern headstones are dedicated to young children versus the ones erected before vaccines were widespread.

The cemetery near here has the state's largest silver maple crowning its grounds. Many of the trees in older cemeteries are some of the largest and oldest trees in an area.

Cemeteries are for the living, not the dead. Enjoy them. Go birdwatching in them. Don't be stupid in them sure but don't be too afraid to touch them either.

And for the love of God don't mindlessly support turning them into parking lots and ""luxury"" condos.

listening to a man break up with his partner on the train and the first sentence I heard was "I just don't appreciate you cheating on me six different times, once with my own father."

Eloise season 5 subplot is discovering lesbianism and then trying to break up Polin in increasingly ridiculous and convoluted ways

Like two years ago I ran into a salamander biologist in the woods who complimented my ability to 'walk quietly in the forest while causing minimal disturbance to the leaf litter.' Still goes to my head.

I had to get my kidneys imaged a few years ago and the urologist somewhat breathlessly told me "you have absolutely beautiful kidneys." and tbh I've never felt hotter.

Bridgerton Next Lead Foreshadowing

has anyone noticed that after the porn ban of 2018 tumblr was essentially killed from the mainstream and everyone flocked to other social media sites like twitter and meta. then those sites got enshittified to where twitter became Nazi Central and meta sites had an entire meme around getting “zucced” aka mark zuckerberg himself would ban you for saying a no-no word like fuck. and then the mainstream shifted to tiktok where infamous toddlerspeak sentences like “he got unalived by a pew pew” were born because if you once again say a no-no word like kill or gun or any other word that isn’t corporate i mean kid friendly then the algorithm will bury your post into the ground. and somehow we’ve come full circle and tumblr is now the most bearable social media site because although we can’t have female presenting nipples we can at least talk to each other like adults. has anyone noticed that at all or is it just me and the flaming skull

I really can’t believe I’ve been on this hell site for 8 years

[chrownox]

Impart me in your wisdom of ancient times

[fedorathexplorer]

one time there was a tumblr user with the url “pizza” and she would just comment on any text post about pizza saying “omg that’s me” and then we found out she had an entire tag dedicated to saying the n word

[thetyrannosaur]

One time somebody paid $750 for the url ‘hi’ and got deleted in less than a year for promoting weight loss scams

[bathykolpian]

There’s always been something deeply wrong with this place.

[superwholock]

too much to document, but god damn we can try

Seeing that this was from 2019 is like how ancient Egypt had people who studied even more ancient versions of Egypt.

@hellsite-hall-of-fame what say you?

[willowrosenberg1997]

if this is an opinion a lot of people hold I must be regarded by society as some kind of feral animal. one thing about me is I will be going places with wet hair

Inside the panicked mind of Penelope Bridgerton:

[yellowdressesandyearning]

“Colin is a rake”

He’s not. Colin made sure Pen was comfortable with every single touch their first two times being intimate. He waited for Pen’s consent in the carriage and mirror scene. He literally saw her in a beautiful dressing gown, but was mad at her emotionally, that he wanted to deal with the emotions first before continuing their physical relationship. Colin thought he and Pen may not have a good marriage but didn’t seek out another woman because he still loved Pen.

Colin loves Penelope and he values emotional connections above all else.

[yellowdressesandyearning]

Colin canonically would rather die then have a mistress

The Bridgerton Siblings expressing their Sexual Desires:

Daphne (to Simon): I really want to fuck you.

Anthony (to Kate): You are the most irritating person I know, and yet all I want to do is fuck you.

Colin (to Penelope): I am spiraling and barely functioning as a human at the mere thought of you; I prefer laying around in bed just daydreaming about us together; I-- *five-page essay later* So, in conclusion, would you please grace me with the opportunity to properly fuck you?

[spaceorphan18]

Benedict (to Sophie): I wanna fuck you. Be my mistress!
