Playing Rivals rn

tw-bugs if you wanna play 👉👈

I don’t really play comp since I always solo cue. Not great in tank, support main but I do flex

Had the idea to set up my sonic au like an ask blog. I know that probably sounds like the work would be all up to you guys for just short text answered but it would be more like the white Diamond au blog where it’s kinda story driven and has art and stuff and I’d keep info going with smurfs and my friends if no one had any asks in or knew what to ask to get the info I wanna give

That also means I might save some people’s asks for if I wanted to use them strategically to show the world and characters

I still want to do my big plot comic but this could be dipping my toes in the au waters on tumblr without commuting and introducing everyone to the au in Vite sized pieces

But idk it’s a half baked idea rn

What do you think?

How would you guys feel about a Sonic AU where Eggman wasn't the bad guy

Dear artists on tumblr,

How do you decide what to do with character art backgrounds? Leaving them white just hurts my eyes and feels boring, I like the no background look but it didn’t always save right and I can seem to send those without them turning white

I have no idea what to do with it and character art is like all I do

Immediate update I just realized that the specific example that set me off today is in fact a user and not Tumblr itself and I partially apologize, it’s still a problem but not this one specifically. That being said, WHY HAVE THEY POPPED UP THREE TIMES IN MY “FOR YOU” SECTION

I JUST WANT TO LOOK AT STUPID HEDGEHOGS LEAVE ME ALONE

Dear Tumblr,

As one of many small, faceless users on this hellsite I would like to discuss a matter of annoyance I have with your app and its ad services. I do not have a problem with the ad service itself, I understand that it is a necessity and the revenue you get from it is needed to keep the site going. No, I do not want you to stop the ads per se. I would, however like to address the elephant in the room, or should I say, the tits out, feet first, full nude, gagged and bound, AI Asian girl in the room.

I am scrolling my carefully curated tumblr feed of Sonic the Hedgehog, and Steven Universe, original artists, and that one guy who makes The Owl House comics I follow even though I have never and likely will never actually watch the Owl House, when I am suddenly and jarringly interrupted by the full image of a real life naked woman, no censorship, bound and gag ready for some adult time presumabley with the viewer which is me and I do not appreciate that. I am a child, not literally I am 24, but a child at heart the last thing I want advertised to me is literal porn. This isn’t new either. Everyday I get ads for ai porn bots with naked anime or poorly generated ladies, webtoons that show people grinding on eachother, and so much more. I still have seared into my brain an image from a year or so ago of naked Velma Dinkly showing me her vagina. There’s no censorship, there’s no warnings, it’s just naked ladies all day everyday.

I don’t know if tumblr ads are like other sites where the ads are curated to the person via the algorithm or not but if so that makes it so much worse cause how do silly sonic memes and shit make the system think I want this?

I love tumblr and I’m not going anywhere but goddamnit get yo tits outta my face

Sincerely,

Your local sexually harassed ace user

Somehow I’ve ended up on Fakemon Tumblr and Sonic AU Tumblr and it’s giving me ideas

RIP Lunchly 2024-slightly later in 2024

Instead of doing Inktober or whatever I was considering doing a form of OCtober but instead of focusing on one of mine I’d drawing someone else’s oc for each day

Thinking about trying to do that November instead but idk
