Some requests from Twitter when I was practicing drawing Vin lol
Iβm a dorky headbanging metal head southern girl and i can most definitely not a pedobear or a creep.Β Β
Today at my school we had an assembly about internet predators and when I had said that most of my true friends are over the internet and they gave me a lecture about how βI donβt know who Iβm talking toβ blah blah. So please, if you arenβt a predator in any way, please reblog so i can prove a point.
do me a solid and just reblog this saying what time it is where you are and what youβre thinking about in the tags.
Yeah, no. Fuck that Twitter shit lol. I ain't got the patience for it right now. Maybe uhhhhhhh tomorrow maybe? I dunno
Guess who's back? Me and Rayne boi that's who! This game has ruined me, I swear to God lol.
Also, Mia is second best girl right next to Io :3
I really hate the idea that likes are useless or don't tell you anything. they tell you somebody liked your post! you did good and somebody like it so they gave it a like! the constant cries of "only reblogs actually Do something" feels very⦠hmm, how do I phrase this?
it's rooted in a sort of warning that tumblr functions differently than other sites in that the number of likes on a post doesn't necessarily contribute to an algorithm that pushes forward certain content (algorithms which, tbh, create a weird sort of feedback loop in which content that is already popular becomes even more popular by getting boosted on the merits of already being popular, but I digress), and so reblogging is the only way to actually spread a post. likes don't make a post "breach containment."
but if likes are equivalent to "positive emotional response" and reblogs are equivalent to "exposure," then discouraging likes in favor of reblogs is discouraging enjoyment of your post in favor of promotion of your post. okay... why? to what end? if the only "correct" mode of engagement is an expanding fractal web of reblogs, and the point of a reblog is only to beget further reblogs... what's the goal?
you've deemed the like as an expression of pleasure useless, so it's kind of difficult to argue that "reblogging a post means they enjoyed it more than if they'd just simply liked it." the quantity of pleasure expressed doesn't matter if you've already devalued the concept of "expressing pleasure and doing nothing else." you can't earnestly say "expressing pleasure is important to me but only if it's accompanied by exposure." so your goal isn't for more people to delight in your content; it's for more people to see your content, and for each of them then to make even more people see your content in turn. and so on. infinitely. just sharing. just exposure.
is that how we got to this point wherein people are genuinely writing essays about how liking a post is actually a backhanded passive-aggressive insult? you think I click the little red heart because I hate you? the logic is so contorted. it relies on the assumption that everyone around you is operating in bad faith, that everyone's intentions are bad until proven good.
what a bitter, paranoid way to live.
HAPPY THANKSGIVING Y'ALL!
And since today is Thanksgiving I figured I'd give y'all a little something as thanks! I love the Code Vein fandom and even though we're a bit small at the moment it doesn't mean we can't celebrate turkey day as a sort of family? I guess?
I dunno. What I DO know is that I wanna give back to you guys with a few screenshots I managed to get of good ole Louis!
Seriously you guys are awesome! Each and everyone of ya!
Happy Thanksgiving! Remember to stay safe, drink water, eat plenty of food and most importantly have fun!
