apparently I’ve made it to “posted as a screenshot on Reddit to be further shared by an actual famous person”. but I’ll finally say it the original post was about the premise “I remember a time when certain things were better before capitalism made it worse”. so many people took the “old person” thing at face value and acted like it was about things like liking hard candy and aging. so at least the one being the most spread keeps the spirit of intent
I just wanted to billboard this:
the original post was about the premise “I remember a time when certain things were better before capitalism made it worse”.
A small PSA to all those new to dealing with the porn bots that Tumblr now has a fresh wave of – I understand that when you go to report them, you want to report them as “[containing] sexually explicit material”, but don’t do that. Report them as spam instead.
These are spam bots flooding tags and the website in general with spam links. They often do not have anything sexually explicit on their blog (although they often have implicit material). Plus, these two reports get very different results. Reporting explicit material gets the bot slapped behind an 18+ wall, so minors can’t check if they’re a bot or not. Reporting spam gets the bot taken down.
Remember, folks: when dealing with a bot, report spam, not smut!
If you know me or follow me on Twitter/Twitch, you’ll know that I am DEEPLY invested in Destiny 2 at the moment. You could say I’m no-lifing the game, because it’s true!
Although my time in the game is mostly a tale of as-and-when I feel like it, I returned to the game at the start of the current Season of Plunder and set out to complete as many triumphs as I can; a goal that I did not really set for myself when I first started playing about 3 years ago.
Today I managed to acquire the Iron Lord and Deadeye Seals, which felt like a huge accomplishment. I very much dislike Destiny’s PVP, but I really wanted the Ascendart Shard and this season’s Iron Banner shader, so my entire weekend was one of great suffering and sacrifice. Was it worth it? We’ll see how much the therapy bill is after all this. 😅
I’d love to try to get the Seals for The Witch Queen, Beyond Light, and Shadowkeep by the time Lightfall comes out, but we’ll see how achievable that is. Definitely need to bug my clan a bit to help me get that Kingslayer title too, but goodness flawless runs are not my forté. 🥲
This is my Lines homework from Lesson 1 of Drawabox.com. I have had to learn that I need to be a lot more patient with myself while working on these assignments and just learning how to draw in general. My progress was slower than I would have liked (started June 18, finished today, July 11), but it is something I feel I have to accept to some degree having a full time job, personal life stuff, and needing to take time for myself to do things I enjoy.
Also been making what I think is good progress in drawing for myself while trying to respect the 50/50 rule of the course. Already I am starting to make more of a conscious effort to draw from my shoulder and not so much from the wrist.
I just need to believe in the process and that I will get better at drawing, a day at a time, a drawing at a time.
This post serves as a reset point for this blog. Going to be using Tumblr as the place to chronicle my journey with art and becoming a better artist through drawing, comicing, and whatever other artistic endeavour I choose to pursue.
Still very much learning, but also incredibly excited for this journey! 🙏🏽
