TUMBLR WRITER PSA

Before I begin this long, drawn out, whirl wind of an emotional post, let me just preface this and say: I’m so sorry for this long, drawn out, whirl wind of an emotional post…

YOU yes, you… you over there, spending your free time creating these fantastic worlds, these amazing scenarios, and these brilliant plots… You are a spectacular human being. You find the time in your busy life; whether it’s from work, family, or school, to sit down and create these fabulous stories, hoping others will love and appreciate them as much as you love writing them.

But Paige, why are you even bothering to make a post about this? Because, dammit, I still feel like writers aren’t appreciated as much as they should be in this forsaken place. And because I do whatever the fuck I want.

Today, I saw a post from a young lady I just recently started following, about how much she’s struggling, how she’s worthless. I actually shed a tear, seeing how hurt she is and how she beats herself up. But then I thought about the other folks I follow… how everyone has their struggles and Tumblr is the one place they feel comfortable enough to express themselves. Because their family and friends don’t care or know how to handle them, or because they just don’t know how to talk to people. Thinking about that just made the whole dam of tears burst. I’m sure the people stuck in traffic with me were like “what the fuck is wrong with this girl, is she crying? Bob, look at this girl, is she crying? Jesus, do we roll down the window and say something? Bob, Bob, Bob, don’t MAKE EYE CONTACT”.

Every single one of you, the ones I follow and the ones I don’t, please don’t underestimate the power and influence you have with your followers. As an avid reader, I can honestly say that every person I follow has saved me in some way. As an introverted, lonely, recluse who is desperate for some sort of positive interaction from people, reading your stories brings me out of my dull existence and reminds me how wonderful people are, and how although right now things are bleak, there are people out there who are smart and kind and genuine.

Well, I told myself I wasn’t going to cry while I was writing this, and I’ve completely failed.

You all are so brilliant and so kind, and so willing to be there and listen to your followers. Just don’t forget that you all provide solace for a lot of us, so never feel bad for talking to us about your problems. I love you all, whether I’ve followed you for a few days, weeks, or months. You’ve already brought me happiness that I cannot begin to express.

im begging anyone who sees this post to prevent rapesexual, im begging you. no one will see this but if you do reblog to get the message out that these fuckers exist and dont deserve to exist heres the flag so you can know who to fucking block, report and tell to fuck off

i dont want this to ruin the pride and help with self esteem of being lgbtq+ so a signal boost from larger accounts might be nice

My favorite screenshots from The Arcana

*cough* Mulan *cough*

small SPOILERS FOR LUCIO'S ROUTE

The expression on the left is quiet new (or I don't remember it... it's been a while since I played this game! Not counting yesterday) but I like it.

The screenshot on the right... This fucking face! Always! It always gets me! Whenever Lucio has this expression I always feel all sorts of things, but what it does mostly to me is that... it turns me on. I know he is a fictional character but I can't help it! And I am sure as hell that whoever draw him like this, did it on purpose.
