Scully prides herself on the knowledge that itâs the two of them against the world, their twin flashlight beams cutting through the darkness surrounding them. But there are days when she wonders just how long it would be until that darkness swallows her. Sometimes she feels as though sheâs a small orange dog trotting behind Mulder, and itâs only a matter of time before her life gets cut short by some monsterâs teeth.

did some touch-ups on this art from a few years ago, which was originally done when my wonderful friend Ella sent me the scripts for the first two episodes of @camlannpod , which inspired me to make an illustration. I strongly recommend giving this podcast a listen, if you're interested in folklore, Arthurian legends, post-apocalyptic queer stories and absolutely fantastic audio quality. âš

why did you think it was a good idea to say that you hated it when you reblog art from someone who clearly loves it
I somehow managed to go almost two years without drawing Harrow Nova once, so here she is. featuring Ortus being a Perfect Cavalier and Gideon being a Buff Necromancer

been thinking about it, and y'know what, even if we had actual a.i. and not Autocomplete Fueled By Plagiarism, and even if it was capable of producing visual art that felt good to look at, or written works that held up for more than a page or two, i would still oppose using a.i. in this way because like. at some point you've gotta ask yourself, what kind of world do you want to live in?
and the fact of the matter is, if we outsource any significant amount of creativity to computer programs, that is going to make it much, much harder for people to make a living being creative. and our capitalist hellscape being what it is, that will ultimately mean fewer people in the world making art. why take any step to bring us farther from the urge to make shit out of nothing? why rush to automate away some of the few tasks that are fun and fulfilling, and can bring joy and meaning to our lives? what jobs will those people have instead? boring jobs? no jobs?
what kind of world do you want to live in?

so i have a mildly popular âreblog and put in in the tagsâ post going around and its. very clear how many people donât know how to interact with a tumblr post
so, first of all, tumblrâs culture has changed a lot in the past couple years. thereâs a genuine community effort to not start any drama, and ironically a lot of the current hostility is an effort to keep things calm. thereâs also a change in how people interact with posts, so if you havenât been here in a while please skip down to the tags/replies/reblog with text section.
for newcomers: you should be reblogging posts about as liberally as you would like something on twitter. if you only like stuff, people will think you are rude/a bot. youâve probably heard people talk about âcultivating your dash,â and thats because this platform is 100% centered around your dashboard. trending matters less, unfollowing and blocking in order to shape your dash into itâs best form is widely accepted, the majority of the content youâll find and interact with will be because of your dash, and the only way to put things on your dash is to reblog them. tumblr users are deeply distrustful of algorithms and have largely turned off the âsee posts your friends have likedâ function (i recommend you also turn of the various algorithms in settings â general settings â dashboard preferences).
so, once youâve reblogged a post, thereâs three ways to add content to it. the tags, replies, and reblogging with text. all of them have different connotations
the tags: an inside voice. originally they were meant for organizing your blog (and theyâre still used for this), but theyâve also morphed into a way to share thoughts that arenât funny/insightful enough for non-followers to be interested in. when in doubt, put your comment in the tags
replies: basically talking to your friends in class. your followers have no way of finding your replies (they donât pop up on the dash, nobody gets notified except for the original poster) so chances are, only the person who made the post is gonna see your comment. itâs for quick one-offs that youâre okay with other people overhearing, but really is only made for one person. theyâre like a public dm
reblog with text: an outside voice. youâre getting up on a stage in town square and entertaining people. make sure itâs funny or insightfulâ bottom line, add something new to the conversation. you should use this the least
general rules of thumb:Â
when in doubt, reblog. people will judge you if your blog is only personal posts and you only interact with other content by liking it. Â
the only things people will judge you for reblogging are personal vent posts. leave a like to give a little virtual hug
if a post is asking about your personality/opinions (i.e: tell me whatâs the last tv show you watched, that kind of thing) put it in the tagsÂ
also if you see a nice edit, gifset, or art, reblog and say something nice in the tags! itâs that nice sweet spot of common enough that no one will notice but uncommon enough to make the artistâs day

how to talk to short people
I'm chasing the vibe I attempted to portray here and here, so I guess all these paintings could be viewed as a series now
