Honestly I think a lot of people who have never made a gif for tumblr don't get that it does actually take time and effort, its not just rip it from a video and post it- you have to download the video, in my case I have a video player installed that grabs continuous caps, figure out what parts you need, you have to open those in photoshop or gimp, depending on where you got photoshop you might be paying for it every month and then on top of that is actually sizing, cropping, colouring, sharpening, adding text, etc. etc. like it is something that takes time and effort for which the only real reward is creating something that makes you happy and hopefully people reblog it with a nice or funny tag, so maybe keep that in mind the next time you think gif makers are being mean or unfair for being upset about reposts. It is its own little artform that is fairly unique to this website, and that's a big aspect of why I have always loved tumblr, if all the gifmakers stopped posting things would be a lot more boring around here.

shh, hush now, dry your tears, "its" is the possessive form of "it" much like how "hers" and "his" have no apostrophe, while "it's" is the contraction of "it is" much like "don't" and "hasn't," because a contraction must always have an apostrophe. there we go, sweetheart, feel better now?

I wish I knew other colour pencil enthusiasts/Polychromos users because I'd *love* to hear about their favourite pencils. Will I ever meet anyone who will understand why #133 Magenta has to be in my top 3, perhaps even top 1.

Damn I want to relapse so bad I want to weight like I did in 2022-2024.

But instead of losing I’m gaining like what the heck??? I do everything I fast/starve, I workout, I don’t eat that much ( veggies and fruit are 90% of my meals), I take diet pills before each meal I eat

I don’t understand what’s going on with my body

I’m freaking disgusting

These motherfcking thigh gap I need it back even though they weren’t that much of a gap

Ao3 needs to give us little banners to drape over our fics like 'This author isn't dead! Just finishing a degree' or 'This writer has carpal tunnel and is out of office currently! Leave a message' or 'This fic is not on hiatus, the author is just busy moving', etc.

Why is writing so hard lol

Wish it could be faster but forcing the feeling is impossible. Begin with musical ritual. Scrolling walls of artful halls. Masticating prose. Sink and dwell and rot with a feeling caught.

And then a different part of the story retches to page. Like prepping a body for possession. Sometimes a spirit you didn’t expect comes calling with an embrace you can’t escape.

I wish the process was outline, drafts, edit, and edit, edit, edit, edit, etc. But I need to check the moon the bugs the wide space of tide

drown my pretentious ass and toss me out to sea

It needs to be real and alive within, burgeoning to escape before I can excise a word.

I don’t think I’d like it easy
