I think it's time for the goyim to understand this huge detail :) these two movements mask their inner antisemitism by claiming to be Jewish/for Jews/whatever lies they come up with daily to appear friendly to actual Jewish individuals. None of them represents actual Jews, in fact it makes most of us feel unsafe whenever these groups are brought up. Don't get fooled by any of them!

no okay i gotta rant. the changes Tumblr is making / is going to make Fucking Suck! they do! they clutter the site, fuck up perfectly fine button placements and such, and just mess with stuff that wasnt broken to begin with but certainly is now!

and the shit with like... collapsible reblog chains... all because they want to cater to people joining Tumblr from other sites. like??? excuse me?? they're coming to Our House. you dont completely remodel your home just because a new roommate is moving in. newcomers adapt. the site shouldn't unless it's to improve. absolutely fucking ridiculous.

i really dont wanna lose this site, its the only one i can handle using and i actively Enjoy using it because its unique. @staff please for the love of everything Leave It Be. let newcomers adjust and learn how to use our site as is. if yall kill tumblr for such a bs reason...

Okay I gotta rant, I'm going to state rn this post is neither pro or anti Zelink.

I wish people could stop arguing over the canonicity of BOTW/TOTK Zelink. Idk I've seen a lot of arguments on it, like both sides are trying to checkmate each other. It's annoying.

I remember back when articles twisted the words of Zelda's VA, and a bunch of people were rude about it. Both sides. Then, when she clarified what she actually meant, there was a whole fit about it.

These games are about player freedom. Nintendo also wants Link, this one especially, to reflect the player. They want to keep it ambiguous and up to interpretation, yes we know Zelda loves Link but we in fact still don't know how Link feels about her.

Even stuff that can be used as evidence still have some ambiguity to it, for example Link's old house. It can be used as evidence for both sides and be up to interpretation for whether they are or aren't living together. On one hand this was Link's old house and Zelda lives there now, Zelda has his hairband, she says he always remains by his side, he can sleep on her bed, the table is set for two, and she has to hide the new tunic. On the other hand no one recognizes the house as Link's anymore it's only referred to as Zelda's house and his belongings are gone outside of the champions picture, there is one twin sized bed with one pillow and it's also important to note couples in this game sleep in seperate beds, Link can get a house in Terry Town, people talk to him as if he also doesn't normally go there, and there's an npc that Zelda isn't one to turn people away from her house so Link has permission to visit. There is room for interpretation and to come up with different reasonings for both sides.

This isn't me confirming or denying this Zelink but to show there is strong evidence for BOTH sides because it is meant to be ambiguous and up to interpretation.

There's also Link just not emoting for any cutscene he is in with her. I believe this is so you can interpret him feeling whatever you want him to feel (though personally I would rather him emote). He doesn't show any emotion when he learns the truth about her, when they reunite, or when the sages pledge to serve her. This is a stark contrast to the Zelinks that are pretty much canon like in Skyward Sword and Spirit Tracks. In both of these games there are very clear feelings for one another with Skyward Sword even having a romance theme for them. These Link's will emote and show how they feel in the moment with Zelda.

The point is it's tiring to see arguments on it. Civil discussions are fine, but heated debates are pointless. Aonuma says he wants people to see themselves in Link, and Aonuma also wants things to be open-ended and up for interpretation (like botws placement in the title). I haven't even touched on people hating on other ships (like miphlink and what not). I just think we should all be mindful, you know? You ship this Zelink? Great! You don't? Also, great! Both can coexist because, at the end of the day, neither is canon.

[anonymous-dentist]

i want you all to know that tumblr has CHANGED me. i use tone indicators now. i have friends and tag them on existential horror uquizes. this hellsite has got me eating posts. and bragging about it. i'm trapped in a place where a triangle is sexy, gay jokes are dime a dozen, and all of my blorbos are covered in blood. oh god i said "blorbo" again. the nightmare never ends

I'm bored at work so I'm seeing if I should report my old company for violating labor standards.

[rohirric-hunter]

I'm just torn between whether I want to flesh out Winterhome into an actual functioning town or play up all the inconsistencies and nonsense until I'm left having to conclude that no one actually even lives there except during the holiday season and everyone rolls in from other towns about two months before Yule and starts getting everything set up.

made a tumblr just because i liked ur fics and i was like omg i can get even MORE content???.,,, ur characterization of miguel is so so dear to me<33 hes literally everything i imagined him to be when i started the comics

AAAAAAAA,,, that's very sweet of you to say; i'm flattered to hear it!!!!!! 💞💞 miguel's an important character to me-- even if SM2099 wasn't my (jokingly referred-to as) Autistically-Decreed Favorite Thing™, it's still a comic book that's very near and dear to my heart, and it has been for a long time..,., i put a lot of raw Passion into my writing (perhaps maybe even moreso than any of my other Creative Hobbies..? idk. i'm not good at measuring abstract concepts--), but. anyways.

writing Mig is FUN!!! he's clever as a cat-o'-nine, but at the same time he also misses social cues like it's a full-time job (Relatable); outwardly as miguel he's a wise-ass, but he Rarely Speaks as spider-man, unless he's surprised, or Winning, or scared, and ALWAYS he's Thinking there is Always Something going on in his mind at mach speeds All The Time. he does not have spider-sense but he also just. straight-up Does Not Need It because he's competent enough to win fights w/o it...

he's my right hand arm. man. just some weird funny tragic soap opera clown of a man with “guy who SEEMS Normal at first but then you spend like 0.2 seconds around him and u swiftly begin to realize that smthn abt this man is Deeply unwell” vibes. god. if he went to therapy he'd be unstoppable.

sometimes (especially lately) I feel like the connections I’ve made here don’t mean as much to other people as they do to me. and maybe that’s true.

but then I remembered that when I deactivated/ disappeared for a day, how many mutuals had already looked me up, found me, and followed the new blog before I even started trying to find anyone myself and still looked like a bot. All this when I thought I’d be remade and set up before anyone even noticed I was gone.

so this is me acknowledging that maybe what I think is not the same as reality .

Where do you even find these old gifs? The nostalgia is hitting me hard right now

a lot of people use gifcities as a search engine for em but i have a really deep interest in the web design and social function of geocities/early personal websites so i actually comb through archived geocities sites for them. its very time consuming since the links are broken so often but its so fun. lots of stuff on the internet archive other independent archiving projects

today. i have experienced the HORRORS (opened laptop for morning meeting while seated between boss and coworker; was greeted with ao3 page i forgot to close last night)

[chewwytwee]

OpenAI and Tumblr aren’t like, besties. Tumblr has always had issues with bots and spam so I don’t think they were exactly stumbling out the door to make a contract with the company that’s been the spearhead of modern day spam.

Tumblr and openAI negotiated the contract, so think for a second about what each company gets out of the deal. You can easily argue that OpenAI wouldn’t want an opt-out option, so you could also argue tumblr was the party behind the option existing. This is all speculation, but it’s just as valid to say ‘The opt-out option was a non-negotiable for tumblr, but OpenAI pressured them into making it opt-out instead of opt-in’ as it is to say ‘Tumblr only included the opt-out option to appease the user base’. People are only making the latter point (and I’d argue are primed to accept it) because all the fear-mongering has made everyone’s knee jerk reaction to AI fear and rage. Oooooo neural nets and weighted graphs Ooooooooooo they’re gonna kill art for real this time for real oooooo all the other panics about automation were wrong but THIS one is real I promise oooooooooooo we need to ‘Kill AI’ just like we had to ‘kill automation’ because technology has gotten too advanced. we need to make computers worse and then everything will get better ooooooooooo
