Don't worry, I'll end this. Once and for all

[thegreatvinchenzo]

To help get myself more acquainted with drawing proper reference sheets for characters, I'm going to be working on reference sheets for characters I draw often or would like to draw more often. For the first one, I decided to tackle Samus.

It's far from finished, since I still need to do her Power Suit and a few other things, but I've got a decent start with Samus herself! Whaddya guys think?

if you're having trouble sleeping the best you can do is put a bright object close to your face and look at it for at least 30 minutes. if that doesn't work you can close your eyes but make sure to think really hard about a bunch of bullshit

[sabertoothwalrus]

maybe this is not my place to say because I am monolingual, and I'm sure it's part of a larger, more nuanced discussion about visibility and accessibility on the internet, but I think it'd be cool if people posted in their native languages more instead of in english. I see people do it way more on other platforms than on tumblr which is almost exclusively in english

El problema es, como bien has dicho, la accesibilidad y la visibilidad.

Tumblr en concreto es muy anglocentrista y un gran número de los usuarios no habla más que inglés. Si quieres que tus cosas lleguen a gente con gustos u opiniones similares, escribirlo en inglés asegura que la gente por lo menos lo pueda leer. Suma a esto el hecho de que bastantes series y tal son originalmente de habla inglesa (y a veces ni se traducen a tu lengua madre), lo que crea un fandom principalmente angloparlante.

Más allá de eso, también hay que tener en cuenta las diferencias culturales que surgen entre fandoms de distintos idiomas. Por ejemplo, durante mucho tiempo el fandom de Vocaloid angloparlante y el hispanohablante han chocado con respecto a temas como la piratería. En ocasiones es complicado manejar estas expectativas, y si sabes varios idiomas, peor incluso.

A mí me gustaría subir cositas en español y encontrar a gente que comparta mis gustos, pero en Tumblr en concreto es casi imposible. Tumblr ya es de por sí mucho más «nicho» en espacios hispanohablantes que otras RRSS como TikTok o Instagram, y si tus intereses no son muy populares, despídete.

La lingüística de los espacios de fans también está hipercentrada en el inglés. No es una pareja, es un ship; no es un universo alternativo, es un AU; no es destripar, es hacer spoiler, etc. Incluso las siglas: en español es LGTB, pero lo que sueles ver es LGBT. Parece una tontería, pero esta disonancia cognitiva hace que resulte muchísimo más complicado hablar en tu propio idioma en un fandom. Por no hablar de las innumerables referencias a posts o a memes... en inglés todo, por supuesto. Como te atrevas a hacer cualquier referencia cultural no inglesa, no te entiende nadie. Pierde la gracia.

Casi todo esto se puede achacar al imperialismo cultural estadounidense. El inglés es útil para comunicarse con gente de todo el mundo, pero su omnipresencia sirve de barrera para todos los demás idiomas. Quizás habría que reflexionar un poco sobre por qué coño el resto del mundo tiene que tragarse años de clases de inglés para hablar del juego que le gusta en una red social mientras muchos angloparlantes no se dignan ni a meter un texto en un traductor automático y prefieren pasar de largo.

WE FINALLY GOT A PROGESTERONE STUDY!!!!!!!!!!!

Addition of Progesterone Leads to Increased Breast Growth for Transgender Women | Amsterdam UMC

The addition of the hormone progesterone to gender-affirming hormone therapy leads to increased breast growth for transgender people followi

this is extremely exciting. progesterone's effect on breast growth has been under-studied for so long and as a result has stopped a lot of transfems from getting on it. this could potentially be a game changer in a great way. i'm shaking. holy fuck.

Illustrations for Chapter 10 of Unit B13 YIPPEE!!

These took a while because of exam season (which I'm still going through unfortunately) but they're finally here! I absolutely LOVED drawing Wednesday playing her cello and I'm quite proud of how it came out 🙂‍↕️🫶

Can't wait to share the next illustrations!

Go read Unit B13 on AO3 ✨

Guess what 👁️👁️ GARGOYLE ENID AND RAVEN WEDNESDAY ARE BACK WOOOOOOO

This is my official debut because I absolutely adore this AU and I've put so much love into making this world I CAN'T WAIT TO SHARE EVERYTHING!!

For now I'll have you know that this is going to be a small comic series with multiple parts! I'm not sure of how many parts this will end up being but I guess we'll find out as we go ✨

[pluviaart]

IT'S FINISHED GUYS!!

PART 1 BECAUSE I CAN'T POST ALL 35 PAGES IN ONE GO BUT DON'T WORRY I'LL REBLOG THE NEXT PARTS IMMEDIATELY!!

I'm so glad that after so long I finally managed to finish this freaking comic T^T I CAN Finally MOVE ON TO OTHER STUFF WOOHOO

Some things I've noticed while making this: I need to be sure of the pacing before I start cleaning up anything, I think that was definitely my biggest struggle, also I think my consistency is not the best (character wise) so I'll do some digging into that too.

If I could change anything as of now it'd be the corny and cringy dialogue… ANYWAY.

Overall this was a fun project! And also the biggest fancomic I've ever made! Thank you for your patience<3

Have a fun read!

I WISH THINGS HAD TURNED OUT DIFFERENTLY!!!!!!!!! goes to the supermarket

project hail mary is a touching and poignant film that leaves you asking questions about humanity like, "wow what if all mainstream media was genuinely good" and "what if book adaptions actually gave a shit about the book in question" and "what if studios hired actors that could actually act, and then let them get a lil wacky with it"

A daily game that challenges our understanding of human cultures. Ten objects. 5,000 years of human history. Guess where and when each artif

An interesting game where you are presented with 10 artifacts from the MET. You have to place where the artifact is from and what time period it is from. Each artifact scores up to 10,000 points, and you lose points the further away your guess is and how far off in time you are. You can only play once a day. Thanks to @baebeylik for showing this to me.

Today I scored really well. Yesterday ... not so much.
