Thanks for the interest and checking things out here💖✨‼️‼️‼️
if you dont decouple your drive to create from your desire for attention you will go insane. simple as. you will never feel satisfied b/c you will always want more and you will feel perpetually bitter that you did not get what you are “owed”
It’s an unpopular opinion but it is absolutely and completely true. I’ve never seen someone who creates for engagement happy with the engagement they get. I posit they can’t ever be happy that way because it will NEVER be enough
I agree with OP and Manka so very much.
You have to rest in your own desire to create.
But, because I see statements like this turn into a sort of general notion of “it’s bad to want validation or attention or engagement”, and to me, that’s not what this means.
It’s perfectly valid to want people to like and engage with what you create. In a general sense, when you create anything, you do it to share with other human beings. Art, craft, food, anything you create is a way to connect with others through our shared humanity.
And wanting someone to like you fanart or read your fanfic is part of that.
the words used by OP is decouple, and this is important. Nothing wrong wanting engagement. But it cannot be tightly coupled with the drive to create.
Reddit user has cracked the code on how to read fanfic and study at the same time

original reddit post

User cotton-seed-oil posted to the FanFiction sub-reddit:
I studied for my exam with fanfiction, and I think it worked. This is so fucking funny. It is the best thing I have every done. I am a physics and astronomy student in college. I am taking cosmology this semester, and it is much harder than expected (we glossed over all of special and general relativity in two lectures, and our previous classes were not expected to teach us this). I spent days trying to study for this exam, and nothing worked-everything was going in one ear and out the other. Finally, two days before my exam, I decided to get creative. I wrote a fanfiction about four characters discussing the concepts, explaining them to one another. One issue I had faced when studying was getting very anxious while reviewing the material, making it hard to even think clearly. Writing this fanfic eliminated that-after all, it's fanfic. Therefore, no danger. It removed all the pressure. 48 hours later, I wrote over nine thousand words in Overleaf, at 30 pages long. It was fun, and it was complete. This afternoon, I took the exam-and while was difficult, I felt like I knew what I was doing. More than that, I actually think I understand the material now. When I reviewed my old homework questions, they were understandable, whereas I had been completely lost the first time around. I have a Quantum exam next week, and I am using the exact same technique, because holy shit, it works like magic (and is so much fun).

Research has shown over and over again that studying with the expectation of teaching the material to someone else is WAY more effective than just studying to remember for a test. This is brilliant - if you don't have anyone to teach it to, have your blorbos teach it to each other!
Rubber duck programming taken to a totally new level.
not my pic but this is the cleanest Storrowing i've ever seen. hats and roofs off to this unknown rental truck driver for full sending it with 0 hesitation
This phrase has already entered my vocabulary re: media criticism where like. The viewer has a concrete view of what they expect a story to be based on the tropes and cliches they're used to seeing together, and when that doesn't happen, they judge it as a failed depiction of what they assumed it was going to be instead of judging it as what it actually is.
"This show is problematic because the hero didn't kill the villain at the end": When does he steal the bread?
"These two characters who were close friends throughout the series don't kiss at the end! What the fuck?": When does he steal the bread?
"This feels like it's missing a conclusion! Like, the protagonist does bad stuff and because of a critical decision he makes as a result of his major character flaws, meets tragedy in the end! Where's the part where he learns better and brings is love back from the dead and becomes a good guy and gets a happy ending?": When does he steal the fucking bread??
I heard this out as "When criticizing something, you must judge it for what it is, not what it isn't"
#this is why so many of us urge people to get a wider diet of stories
hi we’re a24 and we loved the ytp you posted when you were 15. do you want to direct the multimillion dollar adaptation of your opus, simpsons gone purple?

You Survive Until You Can Live.
a surprising number of people see the term "social construct" and think that it means something is not real when it actually means something is so very real because it was created by us and is constantly enforced, often violently
ROUND 1 — Match 47 of 138
Yuuya Kizami (Corpse Party)
Problematic because: "oh great, the haunted murder school also has a normal human murderer in it. he’s trapped in heavenly host like everyone else, but instead of just trying to survive, he starts killing his classmates himself and basically decides it doesn’t matter because the school was probably going to kill them anyway. he tricks yuka, who is much younger and just trying to find her brother, into trusting him, gets weirdly fixated on her as a “little sister,” and then eventually chases her down with a knife. he kills kensuke (his childhood friend), attacks other classmates across different routes/chapters, has a history of harming animals, and generally treats the whole situation like permission to finally stop pretending he’s normal. terrible boy. great horror character." Propaganda: "imagine being trapped in a cursed school full of ghosts and somehow still being one of the biggest red flags in the building. that takes talent. everyone else is crying, panicking, trying to find their friends, and he’s apparently treating it like his villain audition finally opened. horrible vibes, deeply unsafe, should not be left unsupervised with a butter knife, but absolutely memorable. corpse party needed a human nightmare and unfortunately he clocked in for the shift."
vs. Lady Macbeth (Macbeth)
Problematic because: "murder regicide treason etc etc" Propaganda: "this is the Lady Macbeth website, I don't think I gotta justify this"
Who should advance?

as annoying and off the mark as i find the truly hardline obsessive anti AI people i do like watching tech companies lose money and their ceos whine about it. wahhh wahh people don't actually want our product and it's hurting our bottom line and people online are meaaaan about it. ok dipshits isnt that the free market y'all're so obsessed with. try making shit that doesnt suck
the among us show being a total gorefest on par with john carpenter's the thing is a really fun choice
the among us show having a gay orgy in the middle of it is another really fun choice
realizing many people don't know about infinity train creator owen dennis' among us show from years ago, which has been trapped in unreleased limbo all this time and was just dumped on streaming this morning with no advertisement. they don't even know about its weirdly stacked cast
From the Nashville Zoo’s fb page! Here’s the petition, please please please take a moment to add your name (even if you’re not from Nashville!). If you are from Tennessee, contact your representatives and make it clear that the people do not want this data center. This is an AZA accredited zoo which is home to several species of critically endangered animals, we NEED to protect it. Make your voice heard!
Because people will pay attention to cute animals, here are some of the critically endangered/endangered species housed at the Nashville Zoo!
The Amur Leopard and Clouded Leopard (which recently celebrated its 50th cub born at the zoo!)
The Sumatran Tiger
The Red Ruffed Lemur and Ring-Tailed Lemur
The Cotton-Top Tamarin and White-Cheeked Gibbon
The Colobus Monkey and De Brazza’s Monkey
And the Mexican Spider Monkey!
Look at them!!!! Look at them and fight like hell to save them!!!!

Seine Hairstyle: DOWNLOAD
I think this hairstyle is quite like a breakthrough for me. I m aboslutely in love with curly hairstyles but they in fact ARE hard to make. But to be honest when it's finished it is worth every tear and nerve that was involved in the process. Also summer is here so it kinda was a moment for the tropical Half up, half down, curly, flowery hair.
Also I want to take a moment to obsess over this @sentate collection, cause it is SO perfect I swear to God I cannot deal with it. The swatches are just pure magic.
As for the hair:
2 pallettes MM and LLTH
3 optional recolors that can be found in FACE PAINT section, both in MM and LLTH pallettes
Recolor package for the Claw Clip in the HATS section
