is it too weird to ask the textures of everyone, like if I just touched them how would it feel, especially curious about pomni and ragatha hair

Caine's body feels like tungsten carbide metal (excluding the gold parts, which just feels like hardened gold), and his gums and teeth definitely feel like the real thing, even I dread touching him lmfao

Pomni feels like silicone with metal underneath and has synthetic hair, she's the closest to feeling like you're just touching another human. but if you touch her teeth, they feel like sharpened saw blades.

Ragatha would feel like a pillow with a thick hard endoskeleton structure inside, her hair feels like soft yarn.

Jax would feel like silicone with metal underneath too, but when you get to his hands they're hardened gold. The rest of his limbs feels like one of those flexible, lazy phone holders.

Gangle feels like silk sash, her mask is porcelain.

Z feels like an aluminum sheet too with bumps of bolts, especially on the head. Their arms feel like the usual metal, the smaller ones feel like a mannequin's from a department store, their peg leg having a smoothed out wood-like texture to it that won't get you a splinter if you try to caress it.

Kingr feels like a smooth marble texture, his arms feel like folding plastic (you know the squeaky hammer toys? yeah, those ones, but thicker) and the hands themselves feel like the usual metal, although a little rough.

Bubble feels like a cloth, but with a rough, rounded metal sheet underneath said cloth and small bumps of bolts trailing all the way

What are some good minecraft series to watch? I've only seen content smp stuff and I wanna see more cool ones :)

i have not watched content smp so i dont know what the vibes are but the main mcyt series we've watched and enjoyed over the years are these ones:

hermitcraft: ten seasons. eleven years. pg. all up on youtube. very laid back and silly but also has a specific brand of insanity you cannot get anywhere else. it looks intimidating from the outside but due to it not having a definitive storyline you can start watching anyone at any time and pick up on things pretty quickly. some of our favorite Hermits include iskall85, xisumavoid, and mumbo jumbo! (links to their hc s10 playlists)

empires smp: two seasons. three years. pg. all up on youtube. there's more of a focus on lore and roleplay (especially s1) if you're into that, but the server is also full of amazing builders who build amazing things! naturally i recommend pixlriffs for both seasons (s1, s2) because i am insane about that poor little cubito but his s1 pov cuts off early and fwhip has a much more involved viewpoint of the series in both seasons (s1, s2).

speaking of pixlriffs, he has a metric fuck ton of solo series he made up on his YouTube that are amazing. i especially enjoy his one block at a time (minecraft april fools 2022 update) series and his chicken skyblock series with zloyxp! hes very calm and very relaxing but also immensely funny. riffs :)

mianite: two seasons, one spinoff, one technically unrelated series that gets referenced a lot anyways, around 3 years long (?????), not pg, all up on youtube. predecessor to a lot of modern day mcrp (minecraft roleplay) series. i am currently losing it over this one. people usually balk at the series length + relatively unaccessible entry point that kinda comes with its format, but people have made some very good posts about how to solve those problems (will add them later because i cant fucking find them and im tired. @ the 7 other people in this fandom u know what im talking about pls help). would not reccomend starting with this one because it probably wouldnt be worth it. theres themes there tho if you're into those

project: nexus: one season, made over the course of about a year, not pg, all up on youtube. solo series made by one guy (me). it's unfinished and currently on hiatus and it lowkey may be that way forever at this point because i am a man who struggles heavily with adhd and depression but i legally have to include it in the list because i have spent many hours editing it together

I know you've played a lot of pretty obscure games, you've mentionned a bunch before, are there any that you would recommend? I'm want to try and support more indie games, or just creators that make games for fun, but they can be hard to find

i have another blog for that! @ratedjo!

i rarely update it nowadays, cause i just dont have much time to play games, but there are some games recs there!

On this specific post you can get basically 2 pretty big archives of indie games.

I always check this page for weird games, that are usually pretty obscure!

And for a tip on finding indie obscure games, always check Game Jams! The games are often short and free, but very full of personality

can you explain that one post about “the authors philosophy contracts the lore”

-a longtime fablehaven lover who is very new to the fandom

In Fablehaven there was this big thing with light =/= good and dark =/= bad, the primary focus of this was on the dark of course, but we saw aspects of light not equalling good with things like the fairies being petty and the naiads drowning people. The lore was a big fan of it's the *person* who decides who they are, not what they are.

In Dragonwatch... That gets thrown out the window. The demons are Bad, they're helpful when it suits them but they're Bad. Seth being dark? Bad. It's so Bad in fact that the ending for him is *no longer being dark*. He becomes someone who *gets rid of the dark* rather than living in it.

A lot of this comes from all the religious symbolism and philosophy that Brandy was shoving in. It wasn't there in Fablehaven, or well, it was to a certain extent but not in the way it is in Dragonwatch.

Innocence is now the Big Thing (even though loss of innocence was a heavy theme in Fablehaven), Dark is Bad and really needs to be fixed. The magical beings system got entirely redone, contrasting heavily with Fablehavens system, because he needed his Mormon system for heaven to fit in.

Hell, Ronodins fall is legit just like Eve in the Bible and he's demonized heavily for what is effectively shown to he... Him doing his best but making a mistake.

I could go on for awhile in how his religious philosophy led to a lot of plot holes and lore discrepancies, I've done so in the past and others have too, but the basic idea is it just... it doesn't fit with how Fablehaven was set up.

Hi 😁! So I recently saw ur posts on Twitter and a recurring thing that I’ve seen is u HC Leo with Autism.

Not that I have a problem w/ that ofc (I’m autistic myself lol)! It’s just that I’ve seen almost everyone in the fandom HC him w/ ADHD. So I just wanted to ask why do you think or HC him with autism?

Have a great day/night!

I have talked about Leo having ADHD before, but it's not anything special I headcanon him having autism too.

So, to explain, here's some things I've noticed.

He has the traits, as so with special interests (it being illusion magic, as he seems to have been having a knack for it for years on end, along with Jupiter Jim too), stimming, hard time understanding cues, impulsive behaviors, being unaware how other's feel sometimes. He even seems to have a hard time reading books as well. I know that can bleed into ADHD, but it can also bleed into autistic reading comprehension difficulty, as he exclaims that "Hey! I know book words!" like he didn't understand certain words before. Leo even gets attached to objects- such as when he mentions his "lucky rock" in Air Turtle. Autistic people tend to get attached to items, and latch onto them. Leo has even said that he had gotten out of ruts due to this rock, which means that he holds that rock dear. He even starts singing about that rock.

Leo has trouble understanding people's POVs, going back to not understanding cues- as shown in the ROTTMNT Movie, and when he's mainly seen with Raph and Donnie.

He seems to also know prior knowledge about his brother's behaviors even when they don't notice. They don't believe he can do things, and when he proves he can, they're surprised. Leo is a very strategic and information holding person, which can be said to be one of the many "positives" in autistics as well.

I hope this explains some things. Some of these symptoms do overlap ADHD but I headcanon Leo with both. I have talked about it in the past. And if anyone asks, I have both ADHD and Autism!

[ssseriema]

haiii idk who to ask so i saw u in my tl and wanted to ask how to get into Lifesteal smp and maybe recomendations? /nf!! also love ur art it insires me very much :)

omg thank you!!! so lifesteal rn is in its 5th season, but theres not many videos on it so id recommend watch season 3 or season 4 videos, both are really good but i think people consider s4 a bit more lore heavy

depends on what you wanna watch really, but my personal recommendations are reddoons, rekrap2, princezam, or if you wanted to see the current season, jumperwho. i think they have playlists with their lifesteal vids on them but sometimes they wont divide them by seasons so its a bit hard to tell. any of them are a good starting point tho!!

[zinefeed]

Just to answer to that anon, there are a bunch of for-profit zines, but they tend to be extremely hard to get in. A lot of them come from already popular zine organizers, who can ensure that the zine will get enough funding for it to print and be profitable--which is very rare for non fandom zines. And for profit zines are almost always non-fandom ones, due to copyright.

also true, i recommend looking for original content zines if you want to participate in a community project whilst getting some $$$

they are definitely less common. i can't speak for how difficult they are to get into because it varies greatly based on the scope of the zine and the organiser.

we have a tag for searching these now as well!

[corviknight-appreciator]

Hey quick question. First of all rude of that other anon to be so in your business! It's no fun interviewing people if they don't want to talk about themselves. In that case just leave them alone?

But also I am kinda wondering. No pressure to answer if you'd rather not. But my friend who I'm traveling with just got a pokemon and it's grass type but we ran into this fire monkey and fire makes me kinda nervous too. So any tips on dealing with that?

Yeah, I'm not sure what the hell the other anon's deal is either. Perhaps they have too much time on their hands. If they don't get the hint that I gave them something else to do then I'm just going to start deleting the asks.

Hmm... If you're planning to run a gym circuit, there are usually accommodations available in most organized leagues. It's pretty hard to avoid fire-type attacks and pokemon entirely, but you can request that moves above a certain power not be used in a match you're taking part in, that you're a certain distance from the battle so no stray flames get too close to you, and that you can pause the battle to heal pokemon who fainted due to a fire type move or burn with the understanding that they're not allowed back in the match, assuming typical "no revival items allowed" rules.

In non-league trainer battles it's a bit harder to get people to listen about those, and I haven't found something that works for every battle because people are different and such.

In general, if you want to be more comfortable around fire types, the main advice I've gotten is exposure therapy. When you feel safe and ready (do not try this if one of those two things is not true, apparently), ask a friend you trust who has a fire-type teammate if they'd be willing to let you spend some time with them. It doesn't have to be a long period of time, and the pokemon doesn't have to get particularly close to you either. Apparently this is supposed to help you have less of an immediate fear response, so if the situation isn't dangerous you can recognize that and if it is dangerous you can plan what to do without fear clouding your mind. But, you know, be sure you trust the person and pokemon you're asking to help with this. It may also be easier to start this by spending time near a pokemon who doesn't have open flames just by existing, such as a ninetails.

Why do u hate Misha Collins? /Gen

[ktsumu]

hi this is so unrelated but I’ve seen you post about being a stem student (I think) and literally how do you cope with finals 😭😭 i did so bad last sem and I need advice (1st year chem eng) if you have any!

i am so unqualified to answer this but here’s like …. my tips … for having written 8 finals in like 6 days last semester in the same boat as you basically SO!

this might be different because I’m a biochem major (technically bio with a chem minor now but still taking courses for introductory BSc requirements) and not chem eng BUT my friends in chem eng share a lot of my courses right now SO:

for math, physics, chem: practice problems until u want to die. like until you seriously want to scratch your eyeballs out. i aced my physics final by JUST doing practice problems FOR HOURS and watching theory videos on youtube for long-answer questions!! if you get stuck (ESPECIALLY on physics) take a break or get a fresh set of eyes to set you in the right direction. if i ever got stuck I literally just left it for an hour, came back and could do it

for calc (calc 2 especially because jesus fuck) i do active recall on a whiteboard for all of the trig substitution stuff (power reducing, product sum etc) because there’s a LOT. also the trig subs for like 1+x^2 and all that. OR i remember one and learn how to get the others from that but that’s kinda hard … mainly I focus trig because that’s what i think is the most dense but reddit forums can help you deal with any problem areas you have!! discord math help servers rock too

if you’re taking biology or psych as an elective or pre req, ACTIVE RECALL. bio pathways on whiteboards especially!!!! so good for metabolic pathways (we did a baseline coverage of them) and the krebs cycle!!! acronyms and rhymes are super good for bio (mainly bio 1 but you know)

also biochem if you’re taking it before second year: the app ‘amino acid quiz’ is a LIFESAVER i memorized them by doing it like once a day … i could draw them in my sleep right now i swear to fod

OVERALL: prioritize yourself overall! also do not compare with your friends outside right before the exam, i found it could be helpful but overall just stressed everyone out because we all studied the content in different ways. you’ll do great!! 🤍🤍 be kind to yourself always, university is hard!

drink water and you got this!!! sending you hugs for finals season friend!

Do you use Procreate? If so, what brushes do you use? 👁️👁️

Yep, yep! It’s my go to art program :>

I mainly use a lot of default brushes as well as brushes from jingsketch, but here’s a breakdown if you’re interested :V

—

For sketching I switch between the square mechanical pencil and the default 6B pencil. I only use them because their textures remind me of actual art pencils.

For lineart I use modified versions of the default dry ink and mercury brushes, that I tweaked to my liking. I also use the clean sketch brush if I want to do smooth lineart 👀

For coloring, I use whatever honestly. I tend to stick with the clean sketch brush if I want to do simple coloring, but for more complex stuff (like my lineless art) I play around with the previous brushes listed and these extra ones from Jingsketch’s brushset

[candyheartedchy]

uhhh hi! Idk if your still doing these sorta like f/o dilemma stuff, but the thing is that I have these two f/os that I love sm, but the thing is that they both have these ships that are very close to canon. As in like the creator sorta hinted at it themselves. I’m not like the jealous type about any of that stuff, but it’s impossible to go through their tags without seeing the ship (especially for one of them). I’m just really embarrassed about posting any art of my s/is with them and idk what to do.

Hello! I understand the whole thing with going through a f/o tag and getting hit with canon x canon ships at times. Especially if the characters are hinted at. Now I still struggle with this myself at times, but what I learned is that AUs exist for a reason. That not everything have to go according to canon in AUs. And I know sometimes that can be a struggle, especially when seeing certain ships that may have the chance of being canon can make one embarrassed to want to post stuff because it’s then it like what’s the point? But your self ships are special. They teach you self love and that’s what you got to remember is to be gentle with yourself when it comes to these sort of things. I say just post the art anyways because if it bring you joy to create your self ships, others will see it too, and what truly matters is your happiness and sharing the things you love. And expressing your love for your f/o(s).
