a project I finally got around to finishing!! the mane 6, inspired by their earlier generation counterparts, within a medieval fantasy style setting. please don't repost without permission! you just need to ask.

some fun facts:

fluttershy is half unicorn here!! that's why she has the deer-like build and slightly long tail.

rarity is half horse

applejack is fully just a horse.

pinkie and rainbow are the only true ponies

their jobs (in the order shown in the lineup) are royal messenger, royal jester, royal menagerie keeper, royal tailor, royal orchard farmer and Queen Celestia's Most Specialest Student.

in this au, they all met due to working within the castle grounds.

in this au, celestia is queen, luna is still banished, and twilight is discouraged from making friends as it distracts her from her studies. she is celestia's heir and grew up in the castle.

they are all marekissers. lol. also rarity is transfem and rainbow is bigender.

What kind of fucking cocaine do they put on Rose Tyler that if you watched seasons 1 and 2 of New Who you literally never get over her, ever? Billions of seasons upon years down the line, we'll be at Doctor 23 and I'll be 56 years old sitting in my couch going "I wish they'd bring back Rose Tyler, the Doctor deserves some more time with Rose Tyler".

AROMANTICISM. YOU AGREE. REBLOG

[gammija]

nothing personal but this kind of comment rlly exemplifies to me a disconnect between canon and popular fanon jmart characterization because they almost literally had this conversation in canon - except, their lines are swapped!

jon, for all his scared grouchiness, is a secret romantic, while martin, for all his forced optimism, is at his core a pragmatist

"keep your gross ships to yourself!!" is basically just "i do not feel obligated to curate my online experience and go into spaces that i do not like and then complain about it because i believe the entire internet should conform to my morals and my values. i also cannot use the block button."

I have a REQUEST of non dick Grayson fanfiction writers

If you’re writing a fic and you need a way to write Dick out a la ‘Cass was busy in Hong Kong’ PLEASE MAKE IT THE MOST NONSENSICAL thing I’ve ever read

I wanna see

“Dick was busy fighting the devil in hell… he said he was fine so we’re leaving him be”

“I called dick and he just said no? And hung up?? So I’m guessing he’s busy?”

“ Dick was kidnapped by a space monarch and the titans are trying to bargain for him back… he didn’t do anything wrong they just like him and his wanna keep him”

“He’s stuck in a barrel rn”

“Dick is trapped in a noir film”

“He’s busy at the MET”

“I would call Dick but I think he’s on a remote island battling deathstroke rn and I don’t wanna be involved in all that”

“I would call Dick but he’s in Amazon rainforest and they have bad signal”

Are you seeing the vision? Like I want SILVER AGE NONSENSE FOR MY BOY. Like bro is just chilling firmly OUTSIDE the story

Like Tim is doing his whole angst plotline and he tries to call dick and he gets “hey Timmy would love to stay and chat but I’m being chased by sentient cotton candy and I gotta find a water source love you ciao”

Jason needs Allies and he calls Dick and it’s like “hey sorry would love to help but I’m in an alien deathmatch for the crown of a nation and I’m being attacked by a meat cleaver thing? Bye don’t get blown up again! Love you”

Damian needs a place to chill after Bruce is an asshole “sorry kid would love to help but i am currently in the Gotham sewers being handfed cheesecake don’t ask it’s a long story I’ll tell you when you’re 18 bye”

Babs needs him for something “would love to help but I’m having a tea party with a being beyond comprehension and if I blink I’ll die so send me details and I’ll get back to you when slash if I’m alive in 5-6 business days.”

Bruce calls “I’m herding space cows rn is everyone alive? If not tell me now so I don’t have to find out from a newspaper? No everyone’s fine. Lovely. Delete this number”

Gonosimulistic- it's a better scientific replacement for "hermaphrodite". Use it. It's better and more accurate, and the only bad part is that we haven't bothered to codify or list the derived forms.

For a while, I was resigned to using "hermaphrodite" because I'm a biologist, and we will always need some way to describe animals like slugs or clownfish that aren't gonochoric.

I have been enlightened. Thank you, @ders1tes for showing me a better path- my argument towards the use of "hermaphrodite" was never that it isn't a slur, it's that we needed something for animals in a scientific context, and "intersex" was firmly centred on humans or at most, gonochoric vertebrates.

Anyway:

Gonosimulistic: Adjective form. "Slugs are a textbook example of a gonosimulistic species."

Gonosimulist: Singular noun form. "This slug is a gonosimulist."

Gonosimulists: Plural noun form. "Many slugs are gonosimulists."

Sequential gonosimulist: A species that changes sexes over its lifespan.

Simultaneous gonosimulist: A species that produces both male and female gametes.

I know some people find it ridiculous that gifmakers would like credit for their gifs since "it's not like it's their show" or "it's not that hard" or whatever, and maybe there are some gifmakers who truly don't care. But it's really about respecting the time, effort, and love that goes into making gifsets. And I think tumblr should understand what a long process it is so that they understand why it matters that, when you use someone else's gif, it's easy to direct them to the original post.

Here are the things I personally do for every basic gifset I make:

1. I find the material I want to gif. Sometimes that means taking time to figure out where the moment came from (like if you remember the scene but not the episode) or downloading the video. 2. I screen record the part of the video that I want to gif because the format is not always compatible with what I use to gif (Photoshop). I make sure that the screen recording has no skipping or lagging, which usually means recording multiple times. I would say on average, when I'm recording scenes to make gifs, it takes me about 2 hours (if not more) to record 10 scenes. 3. I watch and rewatch the scene to transcribe the caption, often looking ridiculous (I turn the volume up and put my ear to the computer). I often compare the captions to the subtitles and to transcripts I find online if I'm not entirely sure I got something right, and even then, I have made mistakes before. 4. I figure out how to break up the gifs. This includes figuring out how much dialogue to include, how many facial expressions or cuts to include, and what clips I add the dialogue to. For example, sometimes I end up with long gifsets because the actors gaze at each other for eight million years and I don't want to cut any of the minute facial expressions out. Other times I choose to leave some of it out (and usually agonize over this, but I'm a very indecisive person lol). 5. I open Photoshop (can take anywhere from one minute to five million years) and make the gif. At minimum this includes deleting excess frames, cropping, resizing, sharpening, and coloring. There are often more steps as well, depending on the complexity of the gif. I also will sometimes redo all of these steps if I finish it and decide I don't like how it turned out. 6. I make sure each gif is under 10 MB. If it isn't, I have to go back to step 4. Save and upload to tumblr.

And here are some before and after comparisons:

If, after reading this, providing sources for gifs that you save feels like too big an ask or an unreasonable expectation, then I encourage you to try making your own gifs and using those instead.

If you're not sure, just ask! And if you like a gifset, please reblog it! Write in the tags, leave a comment, send an ask, interact with the creator. Gifsets are created for the love of something and finding others who also love it through the creation of those gifsets is beautiful ♥️
