since I don't sell much through my Actual Website I'm thinking of switching to a cheaper platform and just like using pa*ypal invoices or something when someone wants to buy from me directly...idk I make almost 90% of my sales thru et*sy so even tho they are Evil I wanna keep my shop active there bc it's essentially free marketing vs me having to promote my website. and since I don't have the time or energy to get serious about my website anymore I think I need to find a solution where I'm not flushing money down the toilet

No, dude. The comics do exist and can be found here in the order I could best put them in: https://imgur.com/gallery/oSYzcNQ. While I still don’t like Jon, I do believe in archiving as much of his work as possible (it’s not  like he was going to do it himself anyway).  I don’t know how you went to google and said “it doesn’t exist” when clearly it does, but it does prove how little people actually know this thing’s mere existence if a google search couldn’t find the results.
Technically, the comic has two names: The Chronicles of Ademar and Lily the Panda. Although, the last one is more of a name for the web domain than a comic title. To put it simply, the premise of the comic looked like it was going to focus on Lily the Panda and Buckley Bunny, two personal bodyguards of the royal Ademar family in the kingdom of Ademar. The two of them have a simple dynamic of Lily being a self-serious and devoted samurai despite her young age and Buckley being the more reckless but seemingly dutiful bunny rogue of the pair. The two definitely would have met their fair share of threats, mysteries, and maybe slight comedic situations with various one-off or recurring characters and ongoing threats and gotten to know the world and its people more in the process.
The problem with this is that even with the comics, it’s still just nothing but a proof of concept for a series either made in Ponikvar’s spare time or for a college assignment he did in the past, especially with how the art contrasts with the tone of the comic pages. He mentioned at one point that he was going to make The Chronicles of Ademar into a series, with the mention of a first issue and a full book no less, until he had to put it in storage for an indefinite amount of time until either Peter and Company or Peter and Whitney ended. Something as you can see we know isn’t going to happen with how plans have changed after the web domain was eventually lost. You can pretty much find a little more info on the concepts of this project on the old site through the wayback machine in general, right here:https://web.archive.org/web/20140614161713/http://www.lilythepanda.com. You can also find it through his Furaffinity and Deviantart accounts. Personally, I would’ve liked to have seen the concept to be realized, but seeing Jon’s many many many…… issues I doubt the results would be favorable if the idea was realized.
As interesting as this is, I am not going to riff it. It's still a bunch of really loose and thinly connected concepts that wouldn't make for a good riff.

Game-Changing Sites for Writers
A recent search for a specific type of site to help me build new characters led me down a rabbit hole. Normally, that would make me much less productive, but I have found a treasure trove of websites for writers.
Bring Characters/Places to Life
There are a few different places you can use to create a picture of something entirely new. I love this site for making character pictures as references, instead of stock photos or whatever pops up on Google Images.
thispersondoesnotexist: every time you reload the page, this site generates a headshot of someone who doesn't exist. This is great if you're thinking about a character's personality or age and don't have specifics for their facial features yet.
Night Cafe: this is an AI art generator that takes your text prompt and generates an image for it. I tried it for various scenery, like "forest" or "cottage." It takes a minute for your requested photo to load, but no more than maybe five for the program to finish the picture.
Art Breeder: this website has endless images of people, places, and general things. Users can blend photos to create something new and curious visitors can browse/download those images without creating an account. (But if you do want to make an account to create your own, it's free!)
Find Random Places on Earth
You might prefer to set a story in a real-life environment so you can reference that place's weather, seasons, small-town vibe, or whatever you like. If that's the case, try:
MapCrunch: the homepage generates a new location each day and gives the location/GPS info in the top left of the screen. To see more images from previous days, hit "Gallery" in the top left.
Atlas Obscura: hover over or tap the "Places" tab, then hit "Random Place." A new page will load with a randomly generated location on the planet, provide a Google Maps link, and tell you a little bit about the place.
Random World Cities: this site makes randomly selected lists of global cities. Six appear for each search, although you'll have to look them up to find more information about each place. You can also use the site to have it select countries, US cities or US states too.
Vary Your Wording
Thesauruses are great, but these websites have some pretty cool perspectives on finding just the right words for stories.
Describing Words: tell this website which word you want to stop repeating and it will give you tons of alternative words that mean the same thing. It typically has way more options than other sites I use.
Reverse Dictionary: type what you need a word for in Reverse Dictionary's search box and it will give you tons of words that closely match what you want. It also lists the words in order of relevancy, starting with a word that most accurately describes what you typed. (There's also an option to get definitions for search results!)
Tip of My Tongue: this website is phenomenal. It lets you search for that word you can't quite place by a letter in it, the definition, what it sounds like, or even its scrambled letters. A long list of potential options will appear on the right side of the screen for every search.
---
Hope this helps when you need a hand during your next writing session 💛

For anyone interested in long-term residence in the supernatural fandom, please have some observations I’ve made over the decade I’ve been here. Take it or leave it as you will, but I’ve found all of this info useful over the years I’ve been here.
I wrote this yesterday, and it achieved its mission of identifying the sort of folks who would react negatively to it (i.e. a lot of block lists have been updated), so now that it’s been edited for content, it’s going under a cut (because that is how we do things on tumblr in general, unless we have a deliberate purpose for annoying readers with excessively long text posts) for the sake of people who actually do care about the fandom and its history. If that’s not you or your reason for being here, then keep on keeping on with your own thing, I guess. For those who are interested, there’s a lot of fandom resources some of us have been building for years that you might enjoy knowing about.
First off, I’ve been informed by a few friends who’ve read through this for coherency’s sake that it sort of reads like a *shakes cane from porch* fandom grandma complaint, but honestly... I earned this rocking chair and goshdangit imma rock now. So apologies for any “back in my day” vibes or faint aroma of tiger balm this post might give off. Then again, it’s loosely based on a similar post from 2012 so like... time is a flat circle anyway I guess.
1. There is no such thing as “tumblr famous,” unless you’re referring to the hilarious and delightful fic of the same name (please go read it, you will cackle). Posting Hot Takes for imaginary Clout™ on this site is kind of pointless in the long run. Sure you can post solely for the sake of stirring shit and getting notes, but the majority of the folks who do aren’t long term residents of the fandom. They’re just tourists moving through our little beach town for spring break. If you’re actually intent on moving to this corner of the fandom for an extended stay, please bother to really feel out the permanent residents and understand the culture and general mood of the neighborhood. It bears no resemblance to whatever’s going on across town where all the bars and beach parities are happening, and those loud, drunken revelers are, again, gonna disappear back to their regular lives or on to the next party eventually. That doesn’t mean the fandom is dying, it’s just evolving.
(funny how I had several comments implying that I’m just trying to keep the fandom from evolving with this post, because I sincerely do want the fandom to continue on for years to come, and that is impossible without evolution. We can evolve without self-immolating, though. mostly i included point 1 for an excuse to push ancient but hilarious fanfic on you.)
2. Once you post something here, it’s been unleashed to the fandom winds. You never know where it will end up, or who will comment on it or add to it. Remember that time Misha tweeted the link to the Epic Cockles Love Story post? No? It was wild. That was 2012. They all know we’re here, and how to find us if they want to. Please don’t take it to their doorsteps.
Obviously if someone is being a dick on your posts, please feel free to block them, but the whole entire point of this site is to engage people with your posts. Being big mad that someone reblogged your post with comments or supporting evidence, or happy headcanons or “HECK THIS IS GREAT BECAUSE (insert personal story about their experience or whatever else made them Feel Things about your post)” is frankly ridiculous. If your goal is to avoid any sort of engagement with your posts, then maybe try instagram instead. From what I understand, there is a SPN fandom presence there, and nobody can tarnish your original posts with unwanted commentary. But the ability to reblog with additional commentary is a FEATURE of tumblr that builds community through conversation. Otherwise we’re all just talking to ourselves in a vacuum, and that’s what actually kills fandoms.
(and for the folks who just want to blog how they want to blog and don’t want people to engage on their posts at all, please feel free to block anyone you want, as well... nobody wants to step on your toes, but most of us also don’t want to walk on eggshells wondering if this post is one of the “do not add comments for any reason” sorts of posts, either. This is a huge fandom and most people can’t even begin to keep track of every creator and their url du jour, and what their personal rules might be regarding interaction with their content. Including a “please don’t add comments” note at the bottom of your posts-- and not in your tags that won’t even show up on reblogs, but in the actual body of the post-- would sincerely help avoid any awkward or unwanted interactions, too. At the end of the day, you are in control of your own fandom experience and the block button exists.
For the record, I block zero fandom blogs (which is why I posted this, I wanted it to reach a wide scope... refer to the opening paragraphs as to why).
3. Since this post was partly inspired by a tag I left on that post going around about how “previous tags” mean fuckall on this site (which you can read here), just a reminder that if you like someone’s tags or feel they add value to the post, part of the Peer Review structure of tumblr encourages you to PASTE THEM INTO A REBLOG. If you do this, then at least credit the person who actually wrote the tags! Don’t just copy someone else’s tags into your tags on your reblog of the post without credit either. They were not YOUR tags. (I have had this happen to tag rambles I wrote and someone else got credited with them on a subsequent reblog and it is FRUSTRATING). Just... don’t even bother to write “previous tags” because WHAT PREVIOUS TAGS?! Nobody is gonna bother to chase back the chain of reblogs trying to find where the mystery tags came from, friendos. That way lies madness.
(for the record, since some folks seemed to focus on this point solely, writing “previous tags” on a post isn’t inherently a BAD thing, but for anyone who actually is here for more than one-off shitposting, then it’s sort of a pointless thing in the long run. This wasn’t intended to suggest people who ARE here for one-off shitposting are bad or “doing it wrong,” but for people who might actually want to preserve that hilarious joke or insightful comment. People delete posts and entire blogs all the time around here. Links break. I get that the upcoming generation just shrugs at that and moves on with their lives, but heck... you don’t have to accept that all entertainment is disposable if you don’t want to. There’s a bizarre sort of nihilism plaguing us all about the impermanence of pretty much everything that feels like something we should be fighting against rather than buying into wholesale, even in our escapist entertainment. I’m just exhausted by the complete loss of joy in community.
*shouts from the peanut gallery* IT AIN’T THAT DEEP, JUST GET SOME FRESH AIR AND LOOK AT A PUPPY OR SOMETHING
Yes... yes it isn’t really that deep, but bigger picture in the state of reality we’re all entirely disillusioned with, are we supposed to just give up on everything, including the things we cling to because they bring us a tiny spark of hope that we’re not all just trapped in this dystopian nightmare and things might actually be worth living for?
*peanut gallery clinging to burnt husks of peanuts in a barren peanut field* but this is how we have chosen to cope
Okay... you do you... I feel bad for you but if that’s the case then this post is NOT FOR YOU. AND THAT’S FINE. I honestly do not care if you don’t care! I mean, I’m sorry anyone has to live in a world that drives them to that mindset, but I understand. This post is for anyone who might look at their lives and their choices and think “no wait, I unironically enjoy this and want more from the experience of that enjoyment than I’m currently feeling.” Everyone else can continue with their lives as usual.)
4. CONTENT THEFT IS NEVER OKAY. PERIOD. Things like “credit to the artist” or tagging gifs or images you found on pinterest as “not mine” isn’t actually credit. If you can’t source an image or gif set, DO NOT POST IT! We don’t REPOST (i.e. save an image and then create a new post with it as if it was our own creation). We REBLOG (click the little square arrows and reblog from the actual creator). That goes for gif sets, fanvids, screencaps, meta, fic... everything.
(hopefully everyone here already understands this one, but I felt compelled to include some “these are stupidly obvious” reminders anyway, since this is ostensibly some sort of advice column. This is the equivalent of the warning label on your toaster reminding you not to use it in the bath. Like... duh...)
5. Close kin of item 4 is SOURCE YOUR SHIT. 
(for 100% disclosure purposes, I specifically discussed this one in this specific way because of an influx of anon ask messages I received in the wake of the finale. Literally the inciting incident for creating this entire post was what I can only assume was a joking ask about a comment Misha made at a con years ago. Someone actually bothered to take the time to type out those sentences to me. I have no idea what they were expecting in reply, or what could possibly motivate them to send this comment about something so entirely random from, again, several years ago. Just a joke? No idea, but whatever... it got me thinking that there might actually be people who are new to the fandom who MIGHT actually care about the fandom history, and maybe they just don’t know where to go for that info, or how to even begin searching through 16 years of history for things they might actually find enjoyment in, rather than just hauling random out of context garbage out on main and pointing and laughing about it now. People are actually allowed to care about things. It’s not cringeworthy to actually care about things, and you are not alone in actually caring, and there’s this whole big room over here full of people who are thrilled to share in that with you. This post is intended FOR THOSE PEOPLE SPECIFICALLY, so if that is not you, please just continue walking by.)
Yes, I know lots of y’all are new around here right now, but dredging up stuff from years ago that fandom has completely debunked and presenting it as TRU FAX again is just exhausting. We’re not trying to be party poopers, but seriously, we have seen it all and are mostly done with extinguishing bags of flaming dog poop on our front porches for the umpteenth year in a row. I’ve seen a lot of posts that have the same tone as “I saw Goody Proctor dancing with the devil” or “I heard kylo ren has an eight pack” and just... the information is there for anyone who cares enough to find it.
This goes double for “why is nobody talking about this thing I just discovered while watching the show for the first time?!” And, oh hon, we have talked it all into the ground over the last fifteen years. We’re happy you’re discovering it again, but I promise we talked about it plenty when the episodes originally aired. We have such a rich meta history that lots of us have worked really hard to preserve. I encourage you to seek it out, if nothing else than as historical artifacts. The way we have discussed the show has been a 16-year evolution. People have written literal doctoral dissertations on this show. Your shitposts are fun! We love reliving our own experience through fresh eyes, and seeing your wonder at experiencing it all again for the first time! But y’all didn’t invent this fandom in the last six months, either.

Anyone remember Fandom Wank? Not the concept but the actual LJ... No? Okay have a link to SPN topics that ended up there. Through 2013. We have seen so much... including several fandom containment breaches.
for all your art sourcing needs, please see @theroadsofararchive, the repository for so much fandom art.
need to find a gif of something? canonspngifs is a vast repository of gifsets of the entire series. If the gif you want to use in your post happens to be the first gif in the gifset, in the tumblr gif finder thingy just paste the permalink to that post from canonspngifs (which is easily searchable by episode, character, location, situation, quotes, and sometimes even color and clothing items the actors are wearing... it’s really well organized, especially for tumblr >.>) and the first gif will be automatically linked with credit to the gif creator attached. It makes life easy that way. It’s also convenient when trying to remember something specific but can’t remember what episode it’s from. I’ve used the site to jog my memory before going to the superwiki armed with more specific search results to find episode quotes and references. Or sometimes I just scroll through all the nice gifs for fun, too.
Need a screencap of something and know exactly which episode it’s from? Try Home of the Nutty. You might not find the exact screencap you’re looking for, but they have a complete set of caps of every episode, and it’s an incredibly useful resource for quick reference checks and the like. Just give pages a chance to fully load before clicking on the next one. The site is easily overloaded, but it’s still free to use (and again, with credit... Pretty much every screencap on my entire blog is from HotN unless otherwise credited).
As you can see, this is a fandom built on preserving our history. You absolutely are not required to engage with any of this if that’s not of interest to you, but I can only assume that there are people who would be interested in it if only they knew it existed and how to find it. Well, now they do.
6. A few more notes on tags, and how they work on tumblr. The first 20 tags on your ORIGINAL posts are searchable sitewide, so if you want to be able to find something again, tag that thing first before going on general tag rambles. The only place tags on reblogs are searchable is on your own blog. So you don’t have to put 50 tags trying to get a post seen if it’s a reblog. You’re just spitting into the wind at that point. If you have a filing system for finding things again, then by all means add those tags (again, in the first 20, so they’re searchable), but you don’t need to tag a reblog “destiel” and “deancas” and “dean” and “cas” and “dean x cas” or whatever. Pick one for your personal blog’s filing system, that’s all you need.
(this was only added because tagging and searching on this site is so very broken... I get that a lot of folks don’t care about ever searching their own blogs again for anything, so this one only really applies if you do often find yourself trying to find old posts. If not, then it’s not really relevant.  It took me years to work out a decent tagging system, and at the beginning of my time here I never thought I’d end up camping out here for a decade and falling this deep into the fandom, and I regretted my lack of consistent tags only years later when I realized I actually wanted to be able to go back and find specific old posts again. So... for anyone who wants to err on the side of caution, working out a sensible tagging system really helps if you’re here for the long term. I personally tag content by episode, because some of my other general tags are so large as to be practically useless as a search term. But whatever system you choose to file stuff on your own blog, it really only has to make sense to you. And again, if this is pointless advice for someone who has no intention of settling here for the long term. Please feel free to ignore it. I just wish someone had explained it this way to me ten years ago and saved me the hassle of retroactively tagging something like 30k posts... especially now that using the mass tag replacer is the fastest way to get your entire blog deleted... oops? so yeah, don’t use the mass tag replacer either >.>)
7. Tags on Tumblr DO NOT WORK LIKE TAGS ON TWITTER. If you @ someone in the body of the post, it will show up in their notifications (if they’re the sort of person who even checks their notifications... not all of us do. For the record, I generally don’t...), but putting actor or ship names in the tags on a tumblr post does absolutely nothing. It’s not the same as tagging the actor’s twitter account in a tweet. Nobody’s getting notifications about you tagging a post about Jensen here as “Jensen Ackles.” There is a difference. Please learn it. (and don’t take headcanons and ESPECIALLY RPF or otherwise explicit art or fic from tumblr to twitter and tag the actors in it. That’s just... not okay.)
(I have seen the pearl clutchers getting all in a huff about the mere existence of RPF or even explicit content of fictional characters if it doesn’t meet their purity standards, but tagging those things allows people who don’t want to see it to actively avoid that content here. Nobody has a right to tell people their fictional content shouldn’t exist at all, or that creators of that fictional content somehow deserve harassment or threats for having dared to create such “immoral” content, won’t somebody PLEASE think of the children... and no... you do not do that here. Don’t be the problematic behavior you wish to ban from the world. Learn to use tags to protect yourself from, as i have attempted to emphasize here, fictional content you are personally upset by. That’s a you problem, not a problem for the creators of potentially upsetting content that they tag appropriately for.)
8. General formatting stuff: If you’re writing long text posts, visually break them up so people aren’t faced with one long wall of text. The enter key is your friend. Also, if you put long text posts under a Read More break and send people to your blog to finish reading, please ensure that your blog is actually visually accessible (tiny text, or light grey text on a dark grey background, or a visually busy background might be aesthetically pleasing to you but nobody can actually read it. Loads of folks won’t even try. Which is great if you don’t actually care whether people are able to appreciate your content or not, but something to at least consider if you *do* actively want to encourage engagement with your work. Confirm how your blog looks on both mobile and desktop and make sure it’s actually functional in both, too).
And since I mentioned that most of my experience on fandom tumblr has been in the SPN fandom, here’s a bit of a reminder for folks who are new around here. With the reminder that I have been here more than a decade and still feel like a newbie myself sometimes...
This is an OLD FANDOM. There are many, many people who have been at this longer than some of you have been alive. The average age for creators in this fandom is older than you think (I think of my friends in their 30′s as young’ins okay? okay). With that understood, you are responsible for the content you consume and are exposed to. Curate your experience. Ship and let ship. YKINMKATOK. Don’t deliberately expose yourself to content you find upsetting for whatever reason. Tags and warnings are your friends, not targets for you to attack in some sort of purity war. People will ship things you do not like (or in specific ways you do not like), will say things you do not agree with, and will find their happiness in things you abhor. That is not your concern. Find what you do like, and support and engage with it, and ignore (or block, or unfollow) the rest. Tumblr has a feature that lets you blacklist tags so the content you’re trying to avoid won’t appear on your dash.
Remember the paradox of tolerance.
It is not your job in fandom to police how other people enjoy the fandom. It’s not *my* job to police how *you* enjoy the fandom, UNLESS your enjoyment is in actively harming other real human beings in the fandom. If you don’t like their take on the character or the show or the plotlines or their ships or anything else, you don’t need to engage with their posts at all! The necessary corollary to this is that clarifying misunderstandings or correcting factual misinformation is not “policing.” 
(this is where the peanut gallery reminds me it ain’t that deep, and I plead with them to put down the social media and find just one (1) thing to actually believe in in this godforsaken life, find something other than disdain and cynicism and spite to live for. If those things motivate you to find a larger cause for yourself, then great, use them to your advantage, but use them to find something that makes you a better person or brings you a modicum of joy and connection to your fellow human beings despite living in a dystopian hellscape of a world)
I have seen a lot of posts lately that are founded on the sort of authority that comes with “I watched through tumblr for a few months and then watched the last three episodes of the series” and as such are just... missing the larger context of the entire show, and are unfounded entirely in canon. I 100% appreciate the new enthusiasm for the fandom that we’ve been living in here for years, and it’s wonderful to see new people enjoying the thing we love. Your headcanons are valid, you are valid, but recognize that your headcanons aren’t canon. All of us finale denialists have accepted this in some measure, so we feel you. We truly, truly feel you. But regarding actual canon, we have a resource for that: the Superwiki. Learn it, live it, love it, as Metatron would say.
(which you could discover he said in 10.17 Inside Man, thanks to the superwiki! accept no substitutes!)
(and again, there have been people who have been involved in fandom for years who haven’t engaged with canon in years, either! You can play in this universe however you choose, BUT FOR PEOPLE WHO ACTUALLY CARE ABOUT CANON AT ALL, WHICH I AM AGAIN POINTEDLY SAYING MIGHT NOT BE YOU, READER, AND I’M NOT SUGGESTING YOU ARE WRONG FOR NOT WANTING TO ACTUALLY ENGAGE WITH CANON, but if you DO want to engage with canon, please have some useful resources. Why do people feel personally attacked by being presented a list of helpful resources? Absolutely baffling.)
(also: words have definitions. “Canon” is a specific thing, meaning in this case “the finished media product that aired on television.” Anything beyond those limits is secondary canon (think: john’s journal, which is not canon but canon adjacent at best...), word of god (i.e stuff said by the writers and showrunners), or headcanon (which includes actor commentary-- they may have helped create the show with their acting choices and whatever, but they are not in control of the story overall). If there’s something you dislike about actual canon, you can reject it and supplement it with your own theories or preferred outcomes-- that’s basically what fanfic is-- but that doesn’t make your theories canon (much to all our dismay, that’s just not how any of this works. This is not to invalidate how anyone engages with the show or the fandom, just trying to clarify what seems to have been a source of unintentional misunderstandings. Your theories do not have to be “canon” to be legitimate interpretations.)
***I am setting this section apart, and did make a separate post of just this following information, because this is where we go from being relatively chill about different parts of fandom choosing to interact in different ways and you do you and blog however you want, to “hey can everybody please understand that the way you are interacting with this specific material might be harmful for specific legal reasons, and stating that you do not care about the consequences of your actions does actively make you the asshole here...” Okay, now that we have that understood:
The spnscripthunt collective has been steadily acquiring new scripts (which are posted in full on the superwiki for everyone to enjoy, for free). The language around how some folks are talking about these scripts is... concerning. For very real legal reasons, actually, and not because we’re feeling precious about the collection and don’t wike it when meanies use them in shitposts.
-First off, these scripts are not “leaks.” They are all verified and legally purchased (or gifted, in some cases, but still acquired entirely above board. we didn’t whack anyone over the head in a back alley for these scripts, or swipe them out of someone’s trailer on set).
(in case anyone was unaware, these scripts are the copywritten protected property of Warner Brothers. So yes, how we use them and share them with the fandom could have legal repercussions. We present them as a collected resource of fandom history which SHOULD fall under Fair Use doctrine, but this is untested legal water. Insinuating that the scripts are somehow not entirely legally obtained, or that posting them for public access involved less than 100% transparent and entirely legal transactions is incredibly concerning.
Once again for the peanut gallery, if you don’t care about any of that and are just having a good time with it, at least be mindful of the work and expense a large group of people have gone through to acquire and present the content you’re all too eager to exploit for cheap thrills. Some of us do actually care and are not exactly comfortable with the fact that others don’t seem to care about burning it all to the ground. We can’t force you to listen or behave as we’d hope you might, but at least be aware of the potential consequences of your actions. All we’re asking is for you to not be the douchebag who sets the whole neighborhood on fire with your illegal fireworks display. Is that too much to ask for? more on that in a second, first... a psa)
-If you see a script for sale and are unsure if it’s legit (or believe it might already be freely available in our collection), please feel free to ask us for advice. Our goal is to make as much of our fandom history available to the entire fandom, and we absolutely do not want anyone shelling out money for stuff you can already find for free.
(seriously, we’ve seen a bunch of resellers cropping up selling printed versions of the scripts we bought and uploaded for everyone to enjoy free of charge, or scripts that are otherwise of dubious origin. We’ve been at this for years now and know what’s actually out there. We don’t want anyone to fall for a scam if we can help it)
-Also, the usual reminder that the scripts we acquire ARE NOT NECESSARILY THE FINAL SHOOTING DRAFTS. In fact, the majority of scripts in our collection are NOT. Changes are made daily to scripts, even during filming. Comparing a Production Draft (white pages, effectively the first “final draft” of what usually becomes a series of drafts before filming wraps) to a much later revision (say... green or goldenrod revisions, several of which we DO have in our collection for comparison) and how those earlier drafts often differ wildly from the aired version versus how similar a much later green draft is to the aired version, for example, can teach you a lot about the television writing process. The link above to the superwiki scripts page has a nice little explainer about how this process works.
Differences between our posted scripts (many of which are white drafts, aka FIRST complete drafts, which will likely go through multiple rounds of revisions before filming even begins) and the aired version of the show are not all “acting choices” or a director or editor just cutting whole scenes on a whim. It’s insulting to everyone involved in production to suggest that’s the case.
(and yeah, fine... whatever, make any sort of posts you like regarding how those changes came about, but at the very least understand that it’s not actually the truth about how any of this works. Don’t care that that’s not the truth and want to make the posts anyway because shitposting is fun and that’s the extent of your sense of humor? FINE! You’re entitled to do that! But at least you DO know the truth now, and hopefully so do the people who engage with your posts. Deliberate ignorance isn’t cute, smooth lions notwithstanding)
There’s probably a whole other post to be made on fandom tagging etiquette, but again I don’t really use the tags enough to know what’s going on with that whole situation. I’ve also probably left a lot of stuff out, so please feel free to add things I’ve overlooked.
Thanks also to @trisscar368 and @thayerkerbasy for help compiling this, too. They were kind enough to escort me through the park to feed these pigeons. Now I need to take them out for ice cream. :’D
So I guess welcome to the neighborhood. Make yourself at home, but like... try not to trash the place while you’re here. Some of us live here by choice, lol.

Your breath caught in your throat as you jolted upright with a gasp. Your eyes scanned the room as realized you were awake and it was just a dream. A nightmare. Inhaling a few deep breaths, you attempted to control your breathing. Dropping your head into your hands and rubbing your eyes, as if to try and erase the images you saw.
You felt the bed shift beside you, and a quiet sweet voice rang through the silence.
“Y/N,” Two gentle hands found your body, wrapping comfortingly around you, “Are you ok?”
You simply nodded in response. You hadn’t looked at him yet. You were terrified that if you did you would just see flashes of what had woken you up only moments ago. It looked so real, it felt so real. But it wasn’t true, Peter was here, he was ok.
“Nightmare?” He asked quietly. A nod was all you could muster. “Do you want to talk about it?”
You raised your head finally, your eyes finding his in the dark. Reaching a hand out to cup his face and stroke his cheek, a sad smile donned your face that was meant to reassure Peter.
“Not really.” You whispered back with a shake of your head.
“That’s ok. Come here.” He beckoned you back into his arms.
You laid in silence with your head on his chest, listening to the smooth, melodic beating of his heart. Something was weighing heavily on your mind, Peter knew that much.
You propped your head up against his chest so that your eyes met.
“It’s just so unfair, for the universe to bring into my life the perfect guy at the most imperfect time.” You spoke suddenly.
“Maybe life’s not so cut and dry like that. Maybe there will never be a perfect time. Maybe we just have to make due with the time that we’re given.” Peter suggested.
You didn’t answer, you were lost in your own mind. Replaying the events of the last few weeks.
“What are you thinking about?” Peter asked, moving his fingers into your hair, finding your weakness.
“How none of this would have happened if it weren’t for that article.” You spoke with a guilty tone.
“You can’t know that, and now we can’t change that.” Peter tried to comfort you, since when did he get so mature?
“But I don’t want to-“ Your voice broke as tears began to well up in your eyes.
“Don’t want to what?” Peter asked, scanning your face in concern.
“Say goodbye to you. I just want to stay right here in this bed like this forever.” A stray tear slipped through the barricade and slid down your face.
“But you can’t. You can’t stop living just because of one slip up.” Peter tried to reassure you, swiping his thumb across your cheek to catch the tear.
“I just want to be with you, I wish it could just be as simple as that.” More tears began to spill now.
“Our lives will never be simple. I shoot webs and fight bad guys. You make technology that literally kills aliens. This isn’t simple, but it also doesn’t have to be. We can be perfectly complicated.” Peter smiled, trying to cheer you up, trying to give you hope.
“What if perfectly complicated means we have to wait for this press frenzy to blow over before we can be perfectly complicated together again?” You asked with a frown.
“If you think that’s what’s best, you know I’d wait however long for you.” Peter smiled a sweet, naive, hopeful smile. You sighed in response.
“That’s what I’m worried about! I don’t want you to press pause on your life for me. And what if it happens again? One picture, that’s all it takes, and we have to start this all over again.” You argued.
“So what do you want?” He asked quietly, pushing himself up slightly.
“It’s not what I want, but maybe what we need.” You answered quietly.
“And what’s that?” Peter asked, his tone and demeanor changed, as if he was preparing himself for your answer. As if he’d lost hope that this would go in his favor.
“Maybe we need time. Like a month or so, long enough for this to blow over. A month where we both get to live our separate lives. And at the end if we decide that it’s something worth fighting for— we give it a shot. Press or no press.” You suggested.
“I assume we wouldn’t be able to see each other during this month.” Peter asked, disappointed but understanding.
“Not unless absolutely necessary. Like emergencies or something.” You shook your head.
“And business? About the suit or something?” He asked once more.
“Happy’s still your point guy, you should probably just go through him.” You replied.
Peter sat quiet for a minute. Each growing second of silence made you more and more nervous waiting for his reply.
“Alright.” He nodded, and you smiled. He was giving this a chance, you were both giving this a chance, a fair fight, “Now would you get up here so I can kiss you? If this is my last night with you we’ve got to make it one to remember.” Your cheeks flushed at his forward ness.
“Bold of you to assume I could ever forget you Peter Parker.” You smiled sweetly, before your lips reunited.
              - - - - - 🕷 - - - - -
At 5 am F.R.I.D.A.Y. raised the electronic sunshades in your bedroom, letting in the early morning glow. You groaned as her voice filled the room, informing you of the time.
“It should be a crime to wake up this early.” Peter whined in a groggy voice.
“I agree,” You mumbled as you nuzzled into him, your head on his chest, tracing shapes with your anxious fingers. An unspoken heaviness hung around the room. You were both trying to make these last few moments last. One of you have to break the growing silence.
“I wish it didn’t have to be this way, trust me.” You looked up into his eyes.
“But it does.” He replied in understanding and you nodded.
You kissed him once more, like a prisoner on death row indulging in their last meal.
“Your guests will be arriving shortly Ms. Stark,” F.R.I.D.A.Y reminded you.
The two of you quickly and quietly got ready before walking Peter to the door.
“You’re really something Ms. Stark.” He smiled, standing in your doorway. You both agreed that it would be a good idea if he left through the lobby as Peter Parker, not as Spider-Man through a window.
“That’s Dr. Stark to you.” You smirked, cherishing what might be your last few tastes of witty banter with him.
“Oh my apologies doctor.” He mirrored your smirk and turned to leave.
“Hey Peter, “ You grabbed his wrist and pulled him back, wrapping your arms around him, “I really am sorry. I wish things were different.”
Peter tilted your chin up to him and kissed you one last time.
With an optimistic smile, he said, “Who knows, maybe one day they will be.”
             - - - - - 🕷 - - - - -
You welcomed Linda into your apartment not too long after. The first thing she did was squint and examine you, and you just knew a comment was coming.
“You look tired.” She raised a brow, the nerve of this woman.
“It’s 5:30 in the morning.” You retorted.
“Hm.” She scanned you up and down once more, “Well hair and makeup are on their way up, nothing some concealer and a hairbrush can’t fix.”
You sat in silence for the next hour, nearly nodding off every five minutes while your hair was pulled and your face covered.
Once the magic had been done Linda fiddled with your hair to make sure it was just the way she wanted it. A knock on your door pulled her from her trance, and the look on her face shifted: showtime.
As she pulled the door open with a smile that was far too bright for 6:30 am, you recognized the infamous Executive Editor immediately. You were surprised to see him, considering this wasn’t the site of a swanky new club opening or new age gallery party.
“Taylor Antrim, Vogue. It’s a pleasure to meet you Ms. Stark,” He spoke with a smirk as he stuck out his hand for you to shake. He exuded confidence, and you didn’t know whether to be intimidated or impressed.
“Y/N, please.” You smiled, taking his hand in yours. Two could play this game, you smirked back mirroring his cocky demeanor.
“Just wait until you hear his idea, it’s amazing!” Linda raved as we all took our place in your perfectly staged living room. She already knew? Of course she already knew, you thought, it was probably her idea in the first place.
“We want you to wear the dress.” The Editor spoke with an excited smile.
“The dress?” You asked carefully, fearing you already knew the answer.
“Your gala dress.” He answered, as if it was obvious. Your eyes grew wide. They took your silence as an opportunity to try and sell you on it, “As a show of strength, you’re fighting back. You’re rising above. A phoenix from the ashes. Regaining power over your trauma and not letting it rule your life. Just like you said- not letting them win.”
“But-” You tried but were cut off.
“It’s shocking, it’s new, it’s perfect.” Taylor spoke with expressive hand gestures.
“It’s torn and bloody.” You shot back, “Don’t you think that will be a little too... gory?”
“No no no. Picture it- Your hair and makeup is going to be fierce, edgy. You’ve got the dress, with the ripped slit up the thigh. It’s sexy, its powerful. Then pointed directly at the camera, you’ve got the Iron Man hand. You’re taking control; of your life, of your destiny, over the people who did this.” He laid it out for you, mimicking the movements and the pose.
You looked over to Linda and knew... you didn’t have a choice.
            - - - - - 🕷 - - - - -
“Hey Youtube, today we’re here with Y/N Stark in her new stunning 5th Avenue apartment. Why don’t you start the tour.” Your interviewer motioned to you with a cheerful smile. Maybe this wouldn’t be too bad, you thought.
“Right this way!” You welcoming them inside with a sultry smile, “So now, obviously, we’re in the living room. Over here we’ve got the kitchen. But we’ve got two options. Down this hallway, we've got a gym, an office, and a little lab where I’m working on a few new projects. Or we could go this way towards the bedroom, closet and terrace. Up to you.”
“We hear your closet is to die for! Why don’t we start there?” She spoke, tugging the camera man in that direction. Typical. No one cares about the tech you develop in the lab. They care about how many shoes you have.
“Let’s do it.” You laughed, doing your best to hide your annoyance and play your part.
           - - - - - 🕷 - - - - -
After a mind numbing few hours of getting footage of your entire apartment, you were finally free... somewhat. You had one of your planned outings with Thomas soon that you weren’t entirely dreading, though that’s mainly because who had a plan of your own.
Phase one: Dinner at a fancy restaurant known to be a spot rife with paparazzi.
Phase two: A stroll around 5th and into the park, arm in arm with some tipped off paparazzi following you around.
Phase three: Thomas inevitably invites you back up to his place after. Here’s where you’d usually decline and make up an excuse, but you needed to fast track a few things and knew this was the perfect opportunity. So you surprise him, and accept.
As Thomas ushers you into his house with a hand on your lower back that drops once the door was shut, you knew this was the best time to act. While his back is turned locking the door, you slip a bug onto the side of the entry table so you can easily snatch it on your way out. That will work on hacking into the wifi and any accounts affiliated with the network. You estimate it will take about 25 minutes to collect all the data for you to comb through once you return home. Now you just have to wait.
Thomas turned back to you, suspecting nothing, and offered you a drink. You declined as the two of you entered into the main sitting room. He was about to speak and fill the silence when his phone rang.
“What channel?” He spoke into the phone, picking up the TV remote and switching it to whatever channel someone, probably a publicist, was telling him to.
The volume began to blare as he adjusted it, and the sound of your name caused you to whip around and face the screen.
“Y/N Stark said herself that Thomas was over at the time of this Spider sighting. Is it possible that the answer is as simple as that? Thomas De Blasio is Spider-Man?” One reporter spoke, sounding very convinced at this frankly absurd conspiracy.
“They were both at the gala!” The co-host joined in, fueling the fire.
You stared at the screen in disbelief. As if things couldn’t get any worse, someone started a rumor that Thomas is Spider-Man. How could people even believe this? How could he possibly swing into the gala from the outside if he was already inside, cowering behind you might you add. But you also know that now a days, people don’t care about facts, they care about entertainment.
Surely his father, the mayor, wouldn’t want to be associated with a vigilante, these rumors have to be put to bed.
“Thomas, this isn’t good.” You turned back to him with a stern look.
“It would actually be kind of cool, all the attention I would get if I came out-” He tried to continue put you cut off his attention whore daydream.
“No. You have to deny this. Spider-Man is a...  vigilante. You can’t have that connected to you and your father's campaign. They’d put you in jail, they’d make you sign the Accords... I don’t know, but none of this is worth it when it’s not even true.” You started to ramble but had to catch yourself before you let on more than you’d like.
“Uh fine, you’re right. But who’s to say they’d even believe me if I denied it.” He raised an eyebrow with a smirk, obviously loving this public attention right now.
“I’m not your publicist, I don’t know.” You shot back and turned back towards the screen to see if they’ve changed the subject yet.
“Whoever he is, you’re really trying to protect him, aren't you?” Thomas spoke, and your jaw dropped slightly. Maybe he wasn’t as dumb as you thought.
“What are you talking about?” You whipped back to face him, speaking with an angry tone, attempting to deny his correct accusation.
“Spider-Man.” He stated, like it was the most obvious thing in the world
“I don’t even know him.” You shook your head, and tried to make your tone sound as annoyed and convincing as possible.
“Sure you don’t. You can keep your secrets, whatever.” He rolled his eyes. Now you were really set off.
“I’m the one with secrets?!?” You yelled, motioning towards him with your finger,  “You’re the one who used me- for years! You told me you loved me. Was any of that real?”
“Ok fine. You want the truth?” He yelled back, but the more he spoke the less angry his tone got and the more genuine it sounded, “The truth is that it started as a set up, yes. But along the way... yeah I started to fall for you. You’re more than just a pretty face, you’re smart and good. I didn’t want to hurt you.”
You shook your head and rolled your eyes. Turning your back on him once more.
“You know I was really worried about you after the gala. I saw you get hit and I didn’t think you were going to get back up.” He approached you, laying a hand on your shoulder.
“Well you were a big help cowering behind me while I stood up and fought.” You smacked his hand off as you turned around to retort.
“Well thank god Spider-Man showed up.” He spoke, not without insinuation.
“Why would someone even attack a campaign fundraiser?” You asked, looking for a shift in his eyes, to see if he knew something... but you saw nothing. You attempted to compose yourself, you couldn’t let your emotions get in the way and accidently expose your true motives here.
“People are crazy, this is New York baby. Come on, let’s have a drink, stay a while.” He motioned towards the bar, clearly wanting to get off this subject.
You heard F.R.I.D.A.Y. speak into your earpiece, “data retrieval complete”. Perfect timing.
“Can’t, I’ve got a million applications to read for the Internship Program.” You spoke, not dropping your slightly annoyed tone as you made your way towards the door, slipping your bug into your pocket, and Thomas didn’t suspect a thing. That’s what happens when you’re taught sleight of hand by Natasha Romanov.
As long as people continue to underestimate you, this was going to be a breeze. They’d never see you coming.

I have an ArtStation account now!
Hey folks! I just would like to let you know I have an art account there!
Actually, I had made it since March 2020 when I lost my job due covid, but I haven’t had uploaded anything on it because, honestly, because I felt so tiny when comparing my work with some of the pro artists that are there! XD
Have you seen most of those people?! Mon Dieu!! There’s some mindblowing art in there!
I’m a pro too though, since a pretty good time. So I think I just need to work on my self-steem and value my work more, so I think (well I hope at least ) that my work can match the art level the site has. And I think it will, because just today I posted these two illustrations I made and I already have a follower, that is also an illustrator and concept artist.
...Although I couldn’t put myself “serious” to save my life! XD As I said in the second post I did, go here to see My ArtStation
I’m not sure if it’s better to put my artist name (atrixfromice) or my actual name...I’ll think about it.
I just I don’t feel comfortable with posting my name or face due a bad experience I had. When I joined on deviantart, my parents told me “don’t post photos of your face nor personal information”.
I was a bit naive, I took the advice of my parents and I didn’t post personal info, but I was enthusiastic about the site and I wanted the people who liked my art to know me better, so at some point I tested to post my actual name on my dA account, and I had as an ID a photo of my face.
But on 2008, a weird user came to my gallery and started to harass me sexually saying I was so pretty and I made him horny, and asking me if I could give him nude photos of me, and he asked me art requests and got mad if I couldn’t do them, also he thought he had right to say what I could post on dA and what I couldn’t, and other things I’ll can’t say here...And he was from a country near to Mexico, so it was a bit scary he could easily travel to stalk me or something, if he would have liked to.
I blocked him and reported his comments as spam, and he made new account to talk with me again, so what I did was to take down my photo ID and real name, and I stop posting art for almost two years. In hope he thought I left deviantart and he forgot about me. And fortunately it seems like he forget me, because I haven’t seen him since a pretty good time. I still have his dA notes in case he comes back and I need to report him though.
But well, since then I don’t post my face or real name on any of the places I use. Just to be safe. But Maybe I'd like to post my name but not a photo of me.

When you hit that aim, each and every new referral gets "gravy", extra income that will help you for enjoyment things like journeys. Purchase indexed in organization change newsletters, paperwork, and magazines.

It permits companies to change information with a little blurb about what they do, and that can build the two your multi-level marketing down line and provide access to people who can assist you in alternative methods.

hi friends i’m annie and i’m s t o k e d to be here. read below for info on my sweet emmy and like this to plot! joining the discord soon xoxo
╰ * ✶ . ever notice emmaline alderidge kinda looks like diana silvers? they’ve got 550k followers on instagram, but that’s no surprise. their instagram bio says they identify as cis female and go by she/her. they just turned twenty two, right? word around la is they’re kinda impetuous and mealymouthed, but you couldn’t tell online. does it matter when your family’s net worth is $110m? ❪ annie, she/her, est ❫
⋆ ◦ ° ☾ background + personality
emmaline is the only child of matias and lisabeth alderidge, american millionaires who made their fortune by winning a set of high-profile cases before retiring in their fifties to devote their efforts to philanthropy.
growing up emmaline (often opting to go by emmy) had everything she could have desired - trips ‘round europe, beautiful gowns, bullshit organic meals prepared by an in-house chef and a summer home on martha’s vineyard.
when she was young she fit in wonderfully with this life, the prime example of a budding socialite. she made conversation with stock-brokers and attorneys and achieved the highest marks in school. she would not be seen without having the finest garments on and she always entertained. she wanted to be likeable to a fault.
she was diagnosed with ewing’s sarcoma when she was fifteen. clusters of tumors lined her collarbone and upper arm, requiring a multi-year ordeal of chemo, surgery and radiation.
her parents took this and ran with it…creating the ‘alderidge foundation for ewing’s sarcoma.” this was a kind gesture, one that emmy supported at first, but later grew to detest. she hated having a namesake...one public memory of her experience that would stay with her and force her to talk about the most traumatic time of her life with any wealthy friend willing to give.
the foundation operates from the generosity of donors and provides research dollars to study the particular mutation found in em’s tumor cells. this means lots! of! galas! (that emmaline doesn’t want to attend lmao)
she would much rather have frank discussions about survivorship - including talks about sex and body image and how to get drunk on a tuesday without screwing with her medication schedule. she loves mom and dad but feels as if they want to do philanthropy to show face.
now she’s living alone in la as a bit of a runaway (still funded tho lol). she’s the sweetest little bean who is still trying to figure things out. if you catch her alone you can find her pressing some flowers in the pages of her journal or attending community social justice meetings. a champagne socialist if you will.
she works in an art gallery and tries to go unnoticed but everyone is like psych you’re a fckn alderidge and you got this job because you’re rich as shit.
⋆ ◦ ° ☾ headcanons
she has 550k followers on instagram, a relatively low number for the group, but only because every once and a while she has a nervous break and deletes her account before re-making it so less people are watching her life. each time she claims it was a technical glitch. lies.
a bit of a prudish, nervous type but went through a phase where she made-out with half of la in an attempt to feel something again. maybe even your muse!
has a recurring dream where she moves to luxembourg and spends the remainder of her days alone with a bulldog, taking hikes and drinking tea. her therapist says this means her psyche wants anonymity. she thinks she is just sick of warm weather. in denial much?
when she inherits the aldridge estate she plans on shutting down her parent’s foundation and establishing her own fund where she gives large sums of money to sick kids to spend on whatever they want. just a bunch of hand-outs. nothing more. short-sited? probably. could she do more good by thinking this through? absolutely. will she ever change her mind? unlikely. 
honestly this is probably because she can’t have biological kids due to treatment and deals with this sadness by resigning herself to dying broke after giving everything she has to people she relates to. also she wants to spite her own tax bracket. y i k e s !
⋆ ◦ ° ☾ wanted connections
i’m going to leave this rather basic for now but give me childhood loves and first kisses and high school bullies and travel friends and hook-ups and enemies that only hate each other because of a feud between their parents and the one dude that introduced her to pot brownies. it’s! all! open!

How to join Tenimo
I just joined Tenimo several days ago and thought others might like to try it too, so I made a guide on how to join! But first off, what is Tenimo?
Tenimo is short for Tenimyu Mobile! 
Tumblr media
What can you do on Tenimo?
All of the music on tenimyu is available here. Sort of. That means you can listen to all the tenimyu songs, bgms, and karaoke legally and all in one place! You can view their music by album, by show, by song, and you can search by keyword too. You can also create your own playlists! (Note: Y’all know what happened to 1st Higa right. they’re non-existent. sad)
You can access and listen to their web radio any time!

Now, how do I sign up? 
There are three available membership “courses” on Tenimo: ¥300/month, ¥500/month, and ¥800/month (tax not included). 
Tumblr media
I don’t know why 3rd season songs aren’t included in that list because they are available on the site.
The music is NOT available in the ¥300 course.
The ¥500 course can access songs from 1st season to 3rd season, and can create up to 10 different playlists. (You can have a total of 120 minutes only per playlist)
The ¥800 course can access songs AND BGM/karaoke from 1st season to 3rd season, and can create up to 30 different playlists. You can also access Tenimo special playlists here. 
PREPARATION
Before registering, you will need to prepare your name in Katakana, a japanese address (including postal code), and a telephone number. 
They do not have to be yours. Things will not be sent to the address and the telephone number will not be contacted. However, if you have a relative or a friend who lives in Japan, and you would like to subscribe to the mail magazine or buy tenimyu tickets, then I would strongly advise you to borrow theirs. 
If you do not have a japanese address and phone number, just look for japanese hotels or something on google and copy their address and telephone number, or use whatever you did to make a jp account for downloading Tenirabi. MAKE SURE THAT THE ADDRESS IS WRITTEN IN KANJI. 
Got that copied in your phone’s notes? 
If you have, then you’re all set! You can now sign up for Tenimo!

( cody fern, demiboy + he/they ) while i was in town today i found a journal that belonged to oliver-titus beaumont. i took a peek inside and found out they’re thirty and they feel alienated by their relationship with family because it's always been a very distant and cold relationship but you didn’t hear that from me. apparently their favorite place in town is old man cane's bridge and i noticed they’re a photographer so i brought it to them at the lo-fi performance gallery, did i tell you they were on tinder during our entire conversation and when they left all they said was “WHERE THE HELL DID YOU GET THIS?”. ❁ asher + she/they, pst
okay, i bring you the second baby, oliver-titus, and he's a new kid so his personality is going to be all over the place a bit until i like solidify him and get him totally figured out, but y'all get to join me on this journey with him !! the info on him is down below. so again, i'm going to do the intro for artie and then i'm going to answer opens and then do starters, so !! like this if you want a starter from oliver-titus !!
tw for death of a family member, neglectful and abusive parents, mental illness, drug abuse
so i'm going to say now, he's annoying 
he's pretentious, self-important, and rude
they just really are so so much
like honestly, if your character has the urge to tell him off or fight him, please do, he needs it
also, it's oliver-titus, he hates it when people call him anything but
it's mainly due to him being pretentious, but it's also due to the fact that he has intimacy issues, and he perceives that as a level of friendliness he's really not comfortable with
but in no way shape or form do you have to abade by that, particularly when it comes to writing like the descriptions and stuff since it can get tiring writing oliver-titus over and over 
okay, that being said, here is the bio
so oliver-titus ajax beaumont was born to a avant-garde artist and a theatre director, olivia and brutus beaumont (characters can totally know these two, and frankly oliver-titus as well).
only child
he was regarded by his parents more of another art project than a child
which like obviously caused him a lot of issues with intimacy as his parents weren't affectionate at all and forbade anyone from calling them anything but oliver-titus
they basically were trying to raise the perfect artist
there was only one person that said to hell with that, and that was his grandmother, mae, olivia's mom
she lived out in acton in the desert north of l.a.
when titus was little, he used to spend a lot of time with her and her horses
she always called him titus and she was basically his only friend as he was homeschooled and his parents kind of made sure that the tutors never really got that close to him
so yeah, the two were extremely close and she actually gave him the love that he deserved
she passed when he was 13 though at only 65, leaving him all alone in the world
his parents basically only said that this was good for him because he needed this pain to create art
teenage years were extremely lonely and he was always acting up at gathers and such just to cause his parents embarrassment
punishment for this was that he was sent to go live in a secluded home in northern italy in the mountains, only having a caretaker and tutors at the age of 16
at this point, he was already a little bastard and being rude to everyone and anyone and pushing people away, seeing the human race as generally unfeeling and uncaring, and if they weren't that, they would be snatched off the face of the earth for showing any humanity
he chose photography as his medium for three reasons
the two biggest are:
he says that he doesn't need "representations" to express his emotions or to show the world what he sees
his parents see photography as a lesser form of art and it's his small way to stick to them
but in all honesty? that's what he tells the world. he tells the whole world about the first reason, and if you know oliver-titus a little better, then they might tell you about the second reason which is not untrue, but there's a more important reason they chose photography
it's because his grandmother gave him an old polaroid camera and used to take him out around the desert to take pictures on hikes and rides
i don't think they'd ever say that to anyone, but that is the biggest and most true reason why they chose photography
so oliver-titus is in oakgate because of the location mainly, mountains, the ocean, the amusement park, the cute as hell town, the rich history, it's not too far out of the way for other sites in california
the other big plus is that he can claim that he's not avoiding his parents, but he totally is so
other facts about him
is so queer, so so so queer (the only benefits of his parents tbh is that they did not care and actually encouraged him to try different things)
is a HUGE slut, and will sleep with anyone tbh, but he is definitely a hit it and quit it type of person, if he sleeps with someone more than once, he's either desperate or actually thinks highly of you
will suffer and silence and was basically taught that art was the only acceptable to express pain through art and to never talk about it
is such a messy drunk
only time they will open up tbh but will try to brush it off or down play it in the morning
definitely parties a lot
is definitely fond that devil's lettuce, and is maybe a little too fond of that nose candy, but right now it's not causing a problem
a dramatic bitch tbh
and that's about it!

Joined Sep 27, Messages Hey everyone, Just wanted to give you a quick heads up that after minor technical difficulties, the modding tools are available now. If you want to try your hand at making mods for Humankind, you can find the "Humankind Mod Tools" in the Tools category of your Steam library if you own Humankind on Steam. Sorry, we don't have a solution for EGS and Gamepass users in place at the moment. The first time you run them, they'll prompt you to install Unity and activate a free license. Keep in mind, the tools are still in development, so some features are missing and you may encounter bugs. Notably, AI modding is not present yet, and you cannot import textures or 3D assets though you can import images to be used in the UI. I'm sure there are plenty of clever modders here you can still do amazing work even if restricted to data-based modding. You can find more info in the Beta release and Modding Basics blogs, but unfortunately I can't provide you with a full manual yet. AOM Chieftain. Joined Feb 25, Messages Hey, thank you for the information! I was wondering, are you going to modify the system so people don't have to enable the mods made with this system after they install them, re-enable those mods every time they start a game, and re-enable them again every time they load a game that was started with one of these mods active? At the risk of generalizing, it is my understanding that most people who install mods want their mods to work without having to click into some other screen to enable the mods they installed every time they start or re-load a game.

You will have to manually reactivate them every time. Mods are not automatically loaded when loading a save game. You will need to activate them manually before loading a save. Modded savegames become unusable if the mod is updated. There is currently no way to opt out of automatic mod updates. There are no compatibility checks between mods. Be careful about mods that modify the same game content. Mods with the same name cause User Interface issues and only one of them will be shown. Mods cannot currently be downloaded in the Mac version. Click to expand Yes, I saw that. I am wondering what the plan is for revising this going forward and the time frame too, I suppose. I'm also wondering when it will be available for Mac, as I do the vast majority of modding on a Mac. All our mods are tested in Windows of course , but they're made on a Mac. Saxo Grammaticus Warlord. Joined Jul 3, Messages I was initially dismayed by the Mac caveat; however, now, I'm simply baffled. I downloaded FoxFox's Oarly Boats mod and plopped it in the modifications folder. Works like a charm. So, maybe Mac copies can't directly download via Mod. AOM said:. Saxo Grammaticus said:. Joined Feb 26, Messages 1, Location Guangzhou. Hello, Is there any news about future updates of the modding tool, especially about 3D asset import? Unfortunately, I haven't heard any news about importing 3D assets and the textures to go with them. But I know it's a complicated problem, and there are many tasks our programmers need to be working on, so I don't think we can expect it any time soon, sorry. I certainly hope we can add official support for adding 3D models sooner rather than later, because I expect there are a lot of cool things modders would like to do, from more historical cultures to total conversions You must log in or register to reply here.

There are many kind of leads online like leads available and repair work tasks.

Minimize Your Electricity Costs With A Metal Roofing
There are plenty of places to get your magnets, as well as remember the many various kinds available. A long life span and marginal upkeep are simply a couple of various other fringe benefits that proprietors can anticipate. In addition, the longevity of the metal makes a metal roof covering the ultimate safety barrier between you and the most ravaging winds, rainfall or even snow. Each layer is just twenty microns thick, so you can get to unequaled levels of information in your metal prototyping by utilizing this technique. In contrast to the natural property of metal, steel roof covering does not soak up excessive heat, making it really optimal for tropical areas such as Tampa bay, St. Petersburg, Clearwater and also Lutz. Extreme Metal - Rather of a catch-all of term for non-traditional styles like death metal, black metal, as well as ruin steel. Click the web links attended to even more info on steel plating, use resistant services and equipment wear resistant finishings. A number of home insurer will certainly offer a costs discount to homeowners that have a class-4 rated metal roof covering as it reduces your risk of fire, hail storm as well as wind damage. Metal roofing is a fireproof material and also can resist fire up to course A. Class A can be the ones that insurance companies give discounts because of the much less chance of igniting and also having more time to extinguish them prior to points becomes worse. Metal roof is expected to be one of the most perfect and suitable selection to shield any kind of building from rough climate condition. Drugs are a lot a component of the steel lifestyle and society, they're not also worth discussing anymore. Dan Davie: Dan's metal art maybe seen in art and also craft galleries across the country. The China Times report translation also asserts Apple will certainly include an NFC chip in each iPhone 5. NFC innovation would certainly enable customers to link monetary information with their devices to allow a quick, cordless settlement solution that could one day change plastic credit cards. You will not only want to think about the procedures as well as the trial and error for design if you are looking right into steel spinning. When picking a standing seam version for your new roofing job, I recommend choosing a design that has stiffening ribs or striations along the length of the panel as this will significantly decrease or remove oil canning as seen by the naked eye. Robot welding does not utilize a different welding technique, yet is distinct because of its degree of automation. The Website traffic Workplace manages the shipment of each building, scheduling trucks and also coordinating buildings to reach the task site on time where the erection staff is waiting for distribution. this content 's not the glorified trial your negative self may suggest, however this alluring start does show how Metal Equipment Solid will alter its crouching shape yet once again. Steel Gear Strong V has easy controls, a terrific cam, as well as ... an incomprehensible tale. Doors & windows - these are properly attached to the major frame by welding or other reliable technique. Steel discovering does not need to be am expensive pastime ... Discovering http://departeaza-complexe.info and finest fit devices is equally as essential as having a huge option. These structures are air and also water limited to make certain that exactly what is inside is secured. For instance, a metal artist needs a steel working store where a painter only needs a committed area or workshop. Many roof covering Omaha specialists claim that these unwanted products could cause spaces or blisters on the roof when rain comes. Simply put: One single row of starter tiles is mounted anywhere your roofing system finishes, ie: in the very same locations as with Metal Drip Edge and Rake Side.

I had a great week. I caught up on more small stuff and put some more work into the new gallery downloaders.
downloaders
Unfortunately, tumblr decided to kill their 'raw' url access this week. There is not a lot of firm word from tumblr on the issue, but there is some scattered conversation around, and it seems it is dead and not to return. Whatever the ultimate reason for this, it broke our tumblr downloader, so v318 has an updated tumblr parser to fetch the 1280px versions of urls. I have also taken the opportunity to switch the tumblr 'gallery' parser over to the new system, so the tumblr downloader now fetches and associates neater 'post urls' for its file import objects rather than raw file urls and adds 'creator' tags. However, because of the URL changes, your tumblr subscriptions will hence hit their 'periodic' file limits and likely redownload some 1280px versions of files you already have in raw--if this affects you heavily, you might want to pause your tumblr subs before you update and carefully experiment and curate what happens after you are working again in v318. Note that some artists (like lmsketch) attach a lot of images to their posts, so if your periodic limit were 100--and that 100 now means 'posts' instead of file urls--you are potentially talking a lot of files that are going to be redownloaded! Again, I recommend heavy tumblr subscribers pause before update and maybe consider recreating their tumblr subs from scratch with an initial file limit of 10 or so.
The multi-gallery download page has some more improvements this week. I've fixed an issue where the sub-downloaders on the same page were unintentionally all sharing some bandwidth rules with each other. Multi-galleries also now have an 'added' column. And the 'pause' ⏸ and 'stop' ⏹ characters used in the lists on the multi- pages are now editable, also under options->downloading, for those who have trouble viewing this unicode.
I have also made the 'only get a gallery page every x seconds' option global to the whole program (it was previously per-downloader). Being able to create twenty new whateverbooru queries at once with a single click of the paste button is powerful and great, but it also meant spamming servers with many heavy gallery requests all at once, so now all downloaders share the same slot that comes up every x seconds. The delay option is under options->downloading. I recommend 15s for downloaders and 5s for subscriptions. Let's see how 'global' works, and if it is an annoying bottleneck, I will see about making it per-domain.
Subscriptions now auto-compact whenever they sync. This means they delete old fully processed URLs they no longer need to calculate file velocity just to keep them running snappy. You shouldn't notice any change except maybe a faster-loading 'manage subscriptions' dialog.
A couple of unusual data problems meant that xbooru and gelbooru were not searching well in the new system. I have fixed these, so if you got affected by this, please rerun your queries and let me know if you still have any problems. I also added gallery parsers for rule34.paheal and mishimmie (the paheal update should finally fix the 'paheal gets gallery urls in file results' issue!). Advanced users might like to refer to the gelbooru situation (and tumblr and artstation api gallery url classes) to look at url classes's new 'next gallery page' component, which lets you define an easy logical way to predict the next gallery page from a recognised gallery url and now acts as a fallback if the gallery parser cannot find one (as is usually the case with api results!).
full list
downloaders:
extended url classes to support 'next gallery page' generation--a fallback that predicts next gallery page url if the parser cannot provide it (as is often the case with APIs and unreliable next-page-url galleries such as gelbooru)
integrated this new next page generation into new gallery processing pipeline
updated gelbooru, tumblr api and artstation gallery api url classes to support the new next gallery page business
fixed the url class for xbooru, which wasn't recognising gallery urls correctly
wrote new gallery parsers for rule34.paheal and mishimmie (which are both shimmie but have slightly different gallery layout). this should finally solve the 'one paheal gallery url is being parsed into the file list per page' problem
'fixed' the tumblr parser to fetch the 1280px url (tumblr killed the raw url trick this past week)
misc text/status fixes
wrote a gallery parser for tumblr that fetches the actual tumblr post urls and hence uses the new tumblr post parser naturally! (tumblr post urls are now more neatly associated as 'known urls' on files!)
note that as the tumblr downloader now produces different kinds of urls, your tumblr subs will hit your periodic limits the next time they run. they will also re-download any 1280px files that are different to the previously fetched raws due to the above raw change (protip: keep your subscription periodic file limits low)
cut the 'periodic limit' subscription warning popup down to a much simpler statement and moved the accompanying help to a new help button on the edit sub panel
multi-gallery pages now have an 'added' column like multi-watchers
the new 'pause' ⏸ and 'stop' ⏹ characters shown in the multi-downloader pages are now customisable under options->downloading (some users had trouble with the unicode)
the watcher now shows the 'stop character' if checking is 404/DEAD
fixed an issue where the new gallery imports on the same multi-page were all sharing the same identifier for their ephemeral 'downloader instance' bandwidth tracker, which meant they were all sharing the same '100rqs per 5mins' etc... rules
the page and subscription downloader 'gallery page delay' is now program-wide (since both these things can run in mass parallel). let's see how it goes, maybe we'll move it to per-site
subscription queries now auto-compact on sync! this means that surplus old urls will be removed from their caches, keeping the whole object lean and quick to load/save
gallery logs now also compact! they will remove anything older than twice the current death velocity, but always keep the newest 25 regardless of age
.
misc:
the top-right hover window will now always appear--previously, it would only pop up if the client had some ratings services, but this window now handles urls
harmonised 'known urls' view/copy menu to a single code location and added sorted url class labels to entries (which should reduce direct-file-url misclicks)
greatly sped up manage tags dialogs initial calculation of possible actions on a tag alteration event, particularly when the dialog holds 10k+ tags
greatly sped up the second half of this process, when the action choice is applied to the manage tag dialog's current media list
the buttons on the manage tags dialog action popup dialog will now only show a max of 25 rows on their tooltips
some larger->smaller selection events on large pages with many tags should be significantly faster
subscription popups should now 'blank' their network job controls when not working (rather than leaving them on the old job, and without flickery-ly removing the job control completely)
the file cache and gallery log summary controls now have ... ellipsized texts to reduce their max width
fixed an issue where larger 'overriding bandwidth' status wait times would sometimes show instead of legit regular smaller bandwidth wait times
removed a now-superfluous layer of buffering in the thumbnail grid drawing pipeline--it seems to have removed some slight lag/flicker
I may have fixed the issue where a handful of thumbs will sometimes remain undrawn after several fast scrolling events
gave the some-linux-flavours infinitely-expanding popup message problem another pass. there _should_ be an explicit reasonable max width on the thing now
added a 'html5lib not found!' notification to the network->downloaders menu if this library is missing (mostly for users running from source)
help->about now states if lz4 is present
gave 'running from source' help page another pass, including info on running a virtual environment
in file lookup scripts, the full file content now supports string transformations--if this is set to occur, the file will be sent as an addition POST parameter and the content-type set to 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded'. this is a temp fix to see if we can get whatanime.ga working, and may see some more work
if the free space on the db dir partition is < 500MB, the program will not boot
if the free space on the db dir partition is < 1GB, the client will not sync repositories
on boot the client can now attempt to auto-heal a missing local_hashes table. it will give an appropriate error message
misc post-importing-cleanup refactoring
next week
I still have a few more small things I want to catch up on, but it isn't so urgent now, so I'd like to get started on the new 'searcher' object, which will be the final component of the downloader overhaul (it will convert the initial 'samus_aran' search phrase into an initialised search url). I feel good about it and may have some test ui for advanced users to play with by v319.

Indonesian Actress – Nyomi Marcela (Source: Wikimedia Commons)
Here is the quick list of my top five dating sites in Indonesia. I’ll go into more detail in my reviews later in this article.
Indonesia like Malaysia and Singapore has a pretty small but effective dating scene. There are a handful of really good dating websites and apps to choose from. They all have a simple interface (that even my grandmother would have no trouble navigating) and a good-sized membership base to make it worthwhile to elect the paid membership option.
Let me start off by saying that, if you want to increase your chance of success in Indonesia, go to a big city with a large population, such as Jakarta, Surabaya, Bandung, or Medan. Bali is also good because it is a tourist destination and attracts a lot of Indonesian women from around the country.
The problem with the smaller towns is that they don’t have a lot of members. And because dating is a numbers game, you really need to have a large mass of singles ready to mingle in order for any of the sites/apps below to deliver results.
Here are a few more things to keep in mind about dating in Indonesia:
Public displays of affection (e.g. kissing, making out, etc.) are a big NO in Indonesia.
Many women (especially outside of the big cities like Jakarta, Surabaya, Bandung, and Medan) are waiting until marriage to have sex. Whether a woman is waiting or not is a case-by-case basis.
Don’t be surprised if a woman asks you to meet her family very early on…within a month of knowing her.
Should you decide to sign up for the online dating sites I recommend below, be sure to read member profiles carefully as you might come across a lot of fake profiles. Usually, I can spot these profiles pretty easily. A woman who has only one picture posted, is wearing a tight bikini and making an overly suggestive pose are usually clear signals to steer clear. Another clue of a pretender is a woman who has a poorly written profile. As a general rule of thumb, the more boring the profile, the more boring the person.
Indonesian Model – Kamidia Radisti (Source: Wikimedia Commons)
Without further ado, here are my detailed reviews of the top five dating sites and apps in Indonesia.
IndonesianCupid is the best dating site in Indonesia. No other site has found that good balance between quality, size of membership, and affordability.
IndonesianCupid is part of the Cupid Media Network, and thus sports the same clean website design, easy sign-up process, and great communication features as other Cupid Media sites. Detailed profiles and effective anti-spam measures add to this site’s strengths.
Unfortunately, IndonesianCupid seems to harbor a fair number of sketchy profiles, who will message you immediately after signing up, without visiting your profile. Avoid these few bad eggs though, and you will enjoy using this site.
Sign up Process
Signing up is a pleasantly brief process, with only your Facebook account or your name, gender, password, and email required as a first step. Next, just share a few words about yourself and what your ideal partner would look like, and you’re in.
At this point, you can either finish filling out the rest of your profile or start searching for that perfect match right away. When you get around to finishing your profile, get ready to spend some time doing so, as there is a lot to fill out. Some of the questions in the Personality Profile section are repeated from the Profile and Interest tabs though, which feels like an oversight.
How to Locate Potential Matches
When looking through your matches, you can view search results in four ways: photos only, photos and basic information, photos, basic information and a short blurb, and by full profiles. You also have many options for narrowing down your search, including searching by: age, location, and education, body type, ethnicity, lifestyle choices (smoking, drinking, etc.), marital status, whether they have kids, religious views, even their star sign.
How to Communicate with Other Members
Basic messaging on IndonesianCupid has a few options, none of which very useful if you’re looking to genuinely connect and communicate with other members. You can “send interest” to and favorite other members, which they will be notified of. However, if both of you are Standard members, neither of you will be able to speak to the other.
Tumblr media
You can send messages, but not read them, as they’ll be “locked” and blurred out. The one upside here is that communication features as a premium member are fantastic. Audio, video, and IM are all available, and have proven to be invaluable features for ensuring match compatibility before meeting in person.
Unique Site Features
One of my favorite features on IndonesianCupid is the opportunity to filter who you receive messages from. You have many filtering options, from age and location, to nationality, religion, ethnicity and more.
While this feature will typically be more useful for women, as they tend to receive more messages than men on dating websites, I personally found this feature extremely useful for filtering out spam messages.
What is Included in Each Membership Level
Standard – Craft customized searches, browse recommended matches, send interest, communicate with premium members
Gold – All of the above, plus: Communicate with all members, audio/video chat, Instant Messaging, ad-free browsing, anonymous browsing
Platinum – All of the above, plus: Higher ranking in searches, more profile space, extensive search features, message translating, VIP profile highlighting
AsianDating
AsianDating strives to connect people together who are from Asia or mostly of that continent’s background, although you don’t have to be Asian to participate. While the majority of users are from Japan, Thailand, Philippines and the nations around it, the site also attracts many users from Europe and the United States.
Most of the male users on the site are between the ages of 35 and 44 and fill up a majority of the premium accounts. Female users mostly have free accounts and range anywhere from 25 to 44-years old.
Sign up Process
Young christian dating app. The sign-up process doesn’t take more than five minutes and is free of charge. You can sign up separately or through your Facebook account. All you need to do is fill out your basic profile information, such as age, gender, region, and other complimentary details, and then upload a photo so you will get more views, although it is not mandatory to upload one.
After your photo is uploaded and the sign-up process is complete, the AsianDating staff will review your profile and alert you when your profile has been approved and is ready for use. Once your account is verified, you will receive a verification badge. On average, the process takes no more than a few hours.
How to Locate Potential Matches
There are no restrictions on being able to view other members’ profiles as you search. With a free account, you are able to view others members’ profiles and send them hearts if you are interested, which they will be notified of when they sign in.
AsianDating is great in that it allows you to elaborate on yourself and truly show your personality. When you sign up, you can talk about your lifestyle, your cultural background, and your interests, and other users will see that when they view your profile.
I like this because it means there’s more than just a picture. It makes sending messages easy when you know a little bit about a person before messaging them.
AsianDating is easy to navigate. You can filter your results by age, gender, and region, and results will show up on your screen. It’s very simple, and the design makes it convenient for you to browse around.
There is also preference-based matching which are matches that show up on your screen when you log in based on your profile. If AsianDating sees someone compatible, they will let you know. One problem could be finding very users around you. If you’re not in a big city or are outside of Asia, very few matches will likely show up around you.
How to Communicate with Other Members
One of the caveats of AsianDating is you can only message someone else if you have a premium account or a person with a premium account messages you. However, once the messaging process starts, there’s no limit as to how many messages you can send back and forth. If you are a free member and contact someone that is also a free member, the message will be locked until one of you upgrades.
Premium members can also communicate with other members in the site’s chat room which displays a lot of topics, and users can enter and meet other members through chats.
https://rosedate154.tumblr.com/post/658174558804770816/dating-sites-like-tagged. Unique Site Features
AsianDating doesn’t have as many standout features that other sites do. It’s pretty simple and straightforward, but there are a few things you can do on the site that is noteworthy:
The Message Translation option is huge and may be the best setting on the site. This allows you to communicate with others who don’t speak the same language as you. In other words, a man from New York who speaks English can communicate with someone who speaks strictly Japanese. It is a feature that other apps should also add in an effort to gain users. You must have a premium membership, however, to access this.
As we mentioned above, the chatroom allows you to meet others through conversations on a topic. You must be a premium member, however, in order to enter the chatroom.
What is Included in Each Membership Level
There are certain restrictions on AsianDating that only premium users can take advantage of. Some of the perks that come with a premium membership include the following:
You can send messages and have a conversation with all users, even if they are a free member.
You can take part in live instant messenger chats
You get VIP profile highlighting as your profile will be featured first to other members
No advertising
You can rank your matches
You can go anonymous and browse without being shown online
You get double the profile space of a free user
Tinder is a location-based app that lets its users swipe left or right to choose their matches. Users can see pictures and a bio of their fellow app users. Once two people swipe right on each other’s profiles, that means they have formed a match, and they can send each other messages. Millions of matches have been made since the app launched in 2012.
Sign up Process
The first step is to download the Tinder app from either the Apple or Android store. Once you have the app on your phone, use your Facebook account to sign up for Tinder. While it is possible to find a workaround to sign up without a Facebook account, it is not possible to sign up without using your phone number. Tinder pulls all needed profile information from your Facebook page, so you won’t need to fill in any of your details. This is a benefit to Tinder over other apps on the market.
How to Locate Potential Matches
When you swipe right on someone, if they had already swiped right on your profile, a match is made. You get a notification of the match, and a prompt to send them a message. If you don’t want to right then, you can bypass this. You can return to this match later by going to the chat icon located in the top right portion of your screen.
Potential matches are given to you by Tinder’s algorithm. Those appear on your home feed when you open the app.
If you wanted to search for someone in particular, that isn’t really possible. It is one of the few flaws of this platform.

How to Communicate with Other Members
Once you match with a member, you can message him/her. Without a match, there are no messaging functions on Tinder. The lack of ability to communicate with other users is one of the more frustrating aspects of the app.
Unique App Features
Even though this originated as an app, a web-based version that you can access from a laptop/desktop is now available.
You have the option to boost your profile for a fee.
There is a Super Like Feature to let a person know you are very interested.

The Best Free Dating Website
Tinder has three membership levels. There is a free plan plus two premium levels. Tinder Plus and Tinder Gold offer additional benefits to members such as ad-free swiping, unlimited swipes, ability to bring back someone you initially passed on, and many others.
Gold is a higher tier than Plus and offers the most extensive array of options. Gold members have access to a Like or Nope feature, Top Picks Features, in addition to all the features that come with Plus membership.
Badoo
Badoo is a free online dating platform that has been around since late 2006 but didn’t achieve the level of popularity it has today until 2012 when it became famous through it use of Facebook games and quizzes. The site markets itself as a social media site with an emphasis on dating rather than as a true dating site.
Sign up Process
In order to create an account on Badoo, you will need to fill in your first name, birthday, city, gender, and what you are looking for (your three options are chat, dates, and friendship). You can either upload a photo of yourself right away or you can skip it to do it later.
However, you will need a photo if you want to interact with users; otherwise you’ll be allowed to look around the site but not much else. Once your email has been verified, you will be free to use the site.
How to Locate Potential Matches
Badoo utilizes a game called Badoo Encounters to make it easy for you to look for matches fast. This feature shows you each match one at a time, and you’ll get to see their photo, name, age, and the number of interests that you both share. You can either click the Heart or the X icon, similar to how you would swipe right or left on another app.
Meanwhile, the People Nearby function enables you to find people in your general vicinity. You can narrow down your selection by your search filters. Just keep in mind that some people will set their positions as private, so it’s possible for you to find people who are hundreds or thousands of miles away. This can be disappointing if you are set on only finding someone in your area.
Tumblr media
How to Communicate with Other Members
You’re allowed to message other users on Badoo without paying for a premium service, but you will need to upload a photo of yourself to access this feature. If you haven’t matched with someone, you’re allowed to send up to two messages; they will then need to reply to you before you are allowed to send more. Meanwhile, the Badoo Live service allows members to host live video streams, which you can either watch or join.
Unique Site Features
The features on Badoo are admittedly rather basic, but they are convenient for helping you to find dates. The Badoo Encounters feature allows you to easily look for matches, the Profile Score allows users to rate one another’s photos (a higher score earns you a more visible profile), and the Visits section allows you to check which members have viewed your profile.
What is Included in Each Membership Level
Both free and paid membership levels are available for Badoo. The free option allows you to message premium members and send flirts, take part in the Encounters matching game, browse member profiles, and use the search filters. When you upgrade to a fee-based service, you can see who viewed your profiles, send Crush alerts, see if you’re on any favorite lists, browse the site anonymously, and increase your popularity so your profile will become more visible.
OkCupid has been around since 2004, and in the sixteen years of its existence it has established itself as one of the most popular dating websites in the world.
Since its inception, OkCupid has gone through many upgrades and updates for both their desktop site and their mobile app. One of the biggest changes has been how users can send messages, which we will talk more about later.
Sign up Process
Signing up for OkCupid is genuinely a fun process. First, you’ll need to give basic information about yourself such as your location, name, email address, and your birthdate. As an alternative option, you can register with your Facebook account instead.
Once your account is set up, you will need to answer questions sent to you (everything from political and religion preferences to whether or not you drink to whether you’ll make the bed to where you would like to share your first kiss and so on). These questions will take around five minutes to answer, and will make it easier for you to match up with someone else.

With OkCupid, you will be shown one profile at a time, and you can swipe either right or left depending on your interest. To help you narrow down your options, a series of profile-building questions will be thrown at you.
The discover section will provide you with more freedom to peruse through your options. Each profile you see will feature the photo gallery of the member at the top of the page, followed by their profile summary.
How to Communicate with Other Members
The messaging system on OkCupid has changed to help reduce the unfortunate number of inappropriate messages. Back when I first used OkCupid, you could send any message to any user whatsoever. Today, you can still send messages to anyone, but the user will only see your message if they have liked you back.
Unique Site Features
OkCupid has a multitude of features designed to help enhance your experience with the site. These include the DoubleTake where you either swipe right or left on different profiles, the Boost section where your profile will be highlighted (and therefore be shown more frequently to other members), the Likes tab to see who as liked you (this is only available for premium members), and the blog that discusses dating advice and how to better use the site.

OkCupid offers both free and fee-based services. When using the free version of the site, you are free to message other users, search for matches, keep track of the profiles you have liked, use the search filters, and use the Double Take Feature.
However, there are more features you can access when you opt for a paid membership. These include advanced search filers, no advertisements, a daily auto boost, and the ability to see who has liked you, and public question answers.
Good luck out there! Remember to be patient (success in dating takes time), and don’t give up.
