#i dont mean to complain or anything

Man why don't posts sometimes show up in the tags on tumblr?

Idek what to do about it, it happens so often with my posts...

Like I don't tag it anything weird. But sometimes it takes like over an hour, or like the post just doesnt end up showing up in the tags.:(

So like. Not what you'd consider "cold" just in general, but rather specifically for where YOU live (for example: 6c/43f might be considered "cold" if you live in Florida). I see a lot of Tumblr users defending the cold on here, so I'm wondering what temperatures they're actually talking about. For me anyway "cold" automatically translates to be anything below freezing - but I'm not fully convinced that 90% of Tumblr is Actually yearning for below freezing temps.

(My ideal temperature range is around 10c-20c, but a bit below 10c can be nice and refreshing as well. Above 20c depends on what I'm doing - and anything above 25c is too much.)

(WIP)

a rough basic idea for a centaur character i have had floating around in my head for a long time, it doesnt fit with my main OC world but wouldnt call this another project bc its literally just "what if centaurs bc centaurs kinda cool" with little story or worldbuilding other than its all centaurs lol

(the only background is really a vaguely noble couple wanting to hire a new soldier/guard after their previous one is retiring but not being able to afford any highly valued ones (build, color, training- the kind of things horses are often priced with) so they opt for the cheapest to hire they can find which is this enormous draft centaur (vaguely based on the blue roan coat type) that no one wants bc he doesnt talk and never really responds otherwise to being talked to (so he dumb haha (he isnt)- to be clear he DOES what he is told but he doesnt like, sign an ok, he just "stares" and then wordlessly does it), doesnt have any well known parents and is too big to fit comfortably in most buildings, also a little unkept (mostly just in his fur looking pretty rough, not caring much for treating scratches etc- though its not that clear in this sketch)

over time said couple both falling for him, completely seperately/not aware the other also has, bc they actually started to get to know him instead of just going with what he was "sold" as and treating him accordingly (badly)- leading to him being caught in a very awkward "triangle" he doesnt know what to do with and just goes along with everything (hes very calm and stone faced in public but privately socially awkward, always been extremely lonely/isolated and never had to deal with any sort of interest in him as a person instead of just how much he can pull/work until collapsing)

[biblically-accurate-dca]

overanalyzing (nitpicking) these pins (under the cut)

sun's hanging pin: printing error on the ribbon on sun's right hand (yellow instead of red)

this has since been fixed but it's really funny LMAOOOO how did that happen

moon's hanging pin: the ribbons and the hat are going different directions in the artwork (moon's hat falls down but the ribbons don't, most likely because this is essentially just an edited version of sun's artwork)

this one's a little hard to explain. the colors for The Sun and the stars on sun's hanging pin share the same color palette as sun, but the colors of The Moon and stars on moon's pin don't relate to moon's color palette as easily. the star's are the same color as their teeth, but The Moon itself has it's own unique color. it's actually the clouds surrounding The Moon that share a color with moon (same color as their face)

this makes me think that the clouds were added for the sake of sharing colors from moon's face so it's like sun's? but idk that's just a theory lol. imo it's an odd choice to add clouds to it but it's honestly the prettiest part of the pin so i shouldn't complain too much i guess..

"sun and moon" hanging pin: this is obviously based off of eclipse so why are they calling it "sun and moon"? is it because it's not technically ruin eclipse and therefore they can't call it that? that's odd to me. maybe it's for a legal reason. who knows? i certainly don't

the pants don't have any stars even though the hat has them. and this was a purposeful choice. is it because it'd overcomplicate the design? is it a restriction required to make the pin? it's just an odd choice considering it's such a noticeably empty space now

all the dark parts that are meant to represent moon are a weird grey color now and it looks really odd to me. i'm guessing this is just to differentiate them but it's kind of ugly HFJSJGJD

their button's are blue? even though moon's aren't? why

the crators on The Moon on this pin are positioned slightly differently than the ones on moon's. i thought the design was just copy pasted onto this pin but i guess i was wrong? i'm not sure if this even means anything JDJSJFKDG

the bobble head pins: i think their poses are the same as the other's but they've been flipped and edited to differentiate them. this is probably a really obvious observation. regardless i do think it's fun when they parallel each other so i guess i can't complain about how cheap it feels HFJZJGK

there's a weird space between their arm and their ruffles? for sun it's on the left and for moon it's on the right but i can't really figure out why it's there... my guess is that it might've too hard to cut out since it's enclosed in the design, but it's too large of a space to hide it by coloring it in so they had to leave it like that. there's a space like that on the ribbons too so that's probably it. oh well, nothing's perfect

speaking of the ribbons: they're drawn differently between sun and moon! i thought it was just the hands that were changed but i guess the ribbons were too

moon's bobble pin: according to the art for the pin moon's secondary body color is supposed to be a dark blue, however it's so dark that it just looks black on the pin... it's probably more of an oversight than anything but i honestly think it looks kind of cool. i wanna draw it

i think moon's primary body color on the pin is honestly kind of ugly. the color on the art is ok even if it's a little dark but the cyan tint on the pin combined with how dark it is makes it look ugly to me

sun's bobble pin: sun's colors are... a little too yellow for my tastes but are otherwise fine. the colors on the art itself look nicer but i'm aware that the physical coloring doesn't always line up with digital color codes so you can't be too picky about it i guess

sun's secondary body color is technically incorrect (it should be the same secondary color as the face) but it does look nicer like this so just consider this as an observation rather than a complaint lol

the candy shaker pins: i dont have much to say about these (i think theyre nice but a little boring) but i do like how the designs for the bags match the time of day for each of them. the moondrops have a moon with stars and the sunnydrops have a sun with rays of light. it's charming

overall: they're cute i guess... but the fact that there's an entire collection of dca pins makes it so obvious who they're marketing to lmaooooo

Seungmin saying they changed song by so it would be easier for people to watch and listen and then me seeing people going "Yes! It's good it's on tiktok and shorts now" and I'm like. Oh. You're all so fucking stupid <3

[hauntingblue]

Rewatching act 2.... yeah ISHA WATCH OUT FOR THE CYCLE ISHA!!!!! NOOOOO

[monkesupreme]

Love this body type post SOOOO much. Thinking of this rudeass that tried to fight me how inaccurate bruces height and weight was (6’5/250lbs) in the replies of my OWN post, and how he needed MORE weight to be considered a brick house (bc they themselves were 220 and 6’2 and in their words ‘had a little bit of muscle’), then immediately ignored their own statement and got upset when i mentioned i wanted jason to be slightly taller and 40 lbs heavier. Suddenly thats TOO fat and im stupid. Fucking moron.

[dangerliesbeforeyou]

fucking hell the doctor who tag is depressing today... like i get it, a lot of people didnt like the episode that's completely fine!!! art is subjective whatever!!

but like i try SO fucking hard not to put negativity into the tags of things and even go so far as to not even write the show cos of how this site will randomly include that in tags even if u don't want BECAUSE i know that some people enjoy a thing and i don't want to be a cunt bout it but god...... trying to go in the tag to find anything positive or just some gifsets or memes and i'm just bombarded by negativity and it makes me feel sad :(

I'm still so unironically upset about the minecraft movie

[lemedstudent2021]

heeeeey it's me :) asking the uni advice again - how did you pick? what drew you to the uni you go to? any advice you would give?

also how are you finding studying medicine? i used to want to study medicine but i am definitely not a stem girlie i am a politics person through and through

hope you are well :)

hiya :DDDDD

aight so starting with uni we have 2 main universities in my city so to speak, while there are several others both in the city or its vicinity (next city over) it was always going to be between these two, so advice #1 is narrowing down ur options!! if u can apply to the closest place to u it pays off soso much imo, makes life so much easier and belive me u want all the help (and shortcuts) u can get!!

also adding to that both my parents teach at the same uni so im very lucky to have the advantage of coordinating with them lol. its my dads alma mater and several of my aunts and uncles', so aside from accessability ig u can say its been a home of sorts away from home? i even went to the school (thats a thing apparently lol) for a year and a half lol so i know the campus like the back of my hand XD

--

the way applications work here is that every year after the national tawjihi exams everyone in the country applies to whats called alqubool almuwahad (literally; unified acceptance) and based on that u get sorted and accepted into unis and programmes based on seat availability and ur gpa.

here medicine and engineering have the highest pressure (?) so its very very competetive, and if ur an international student (as in ur certificate isnt jordanian like ya girl; i have an american highschool diploma technically lol) while ur certificate goes through an equivalency process ur chances are even slimmer bc the priority is for national students. anyway

i knew id be studying something bio/ health related, as much as i adore the humanities and languages science always had my heart lol, so when i filled out the application it was medicine and medical laborotaries (biomedical science in the uk iirc) and i got accepted alhamdulillah to medical school in the two universities i applied to and chose the one closer to home (thank GOD i barely get to lectures on time lmao) making advice #2 is finding the thing you love and are willing to work for, very happy for u checking the box already!!

--

now why i applied to med school to begin with is a funny (and very long) story lol, but in brief i was never planning on being a doctor. most people have an inspiring story or its a dream of theirs whereas i was chilling right up until the last second XD i was planning on applying for applied medical sciences (biomed) and breezing thru the 4 years of uni, and my grandfather encouraged me to do so, saying med school was a long road (my eldest uncle is a doctor and my grandfather was also in healthcare) and i was like bet :]

and then seemingly out of nowhere he encouraged me to study medicine lol bc its a better investment on the long run and opened more doors in the future (tbf true), and i was like ill pray and see where it takes me, but me and my parents were all firmly nah we good. BUT THEN

slowly yet surely my parents were like if u want to study medicine you have our full support, we wont pressure you into studying anything (sadly this is a thing here, idk why so many people practically force their kids into studying what they dont want :') like those of us who willingly signed up for this are barely scraping by lmao. anyway)

and then *i* started really considering it. i was really uncertain and on top of that the entire world was itself uncertain (graduated hs in 2021 so this was all post covid and so much had changed and it was hard to guess what was going to come next etc) and then med school applicants had to take another exam (not entrance per se, its bc there were so many of us that year they had to narrow the numbers down) and between that and acceptance letters coming out my grandfather passed away.

i think my journey thus far in uni has been full of grief and love, and im sure therell be lots more down the line, but it does make me a little happy sometimes when i think of my grandfathers whom i miss very dearly and how were proud of me, and how much it means to my grandmothers still. it keeps me going. if not for me then for them.

i know i said id be brief lol but i couldnt help it sdksjdksskjd. im doing well alhamdulillah <3 hope u are doing wonderfully and tysm for the ask!

i read this one uu fic where ash knows tht spoke is spoke inthe mafia episode and its lkke him giving spoke a ceremony outfit and its kinda gay with all of the caressing and shit but idk if i like them that way Id prefer to see them in a toxic platonic way but the author might make them kiss if they make a sequel but ill pretend that its a cheek kiss instead if they do

[gophergal]

So tired of people bitching about fandom shit. If someone ain't hurting you, then just ignore the "annoying" way they interact with the media. If you're that bothered by a lack of material for you to enjoy, then make it yourself

[nonbinary-sticks-the-badger]

haaate how my two favourite ships (surgamy + espilver) typically involve the less popular character losing their edge and acting really out of character (but in an in character way?) because when i go through periods of not drawing/writing/whatever much when it comes to surge or espio as standalone characters (or at least outside the context of shipping) i get scared im gonna forget who they are and that theyre actually so cool
