Me: I don't really believe in gatekeeping a field where anyone can learn with enough work. The training we get in academia isn't impossible to self-teach.
Also me: The number of people calling themselves "historians" or pretending to educate about history on social media when they're just reading Wiki or telling you fun facts is way too high. The job title has meaning. You wouldn't call yourself a mathematician for knowing how to make your graphing calculator make graphs.
I would already do anything for you, Lan Xichen had thought at the time, full of sorrow. In a way that goes well beyond what I felt for him. But even if I told you, you wouldn’t believe me, would you?
Anyway I went a little feral over the newest chapter of Unfettered by @robininthelabyrinth because lxc pining and having very dubious tastes in men was just *chef’s kiss*
Maya Voronskaya they could never make me hate you
random oc art boo
Two princesses of Veiland, only about 20 years parting them. There is some kind of thematical connection between them in the story even though the one on the left is not present to it physically and is long dead... The girl on the right is the main character of my story, the awful and spectacular Maya Voronskaya!
Veiland is a country of Ta-nbt world which has its own culture and also is a home for more than just humans. I don't like the name I gave it because it sounds like generic fantasy English "-land" even though it wasn't formed that way. Maybe I will change it to something like "Veilani".
I kinda tried to do a bit more complex poses than I usually do...🥹
nie huaisang but make him fat
completely unfounded headcanon that nie mingjue actually really likes dessert items, but can't have any because his strict diet + workout regimen forbids them. when jin guangyao is feeling especially bitchy he goes to the local bakery, buys an extra large chocolate cupcake, and eats all of it right in front of nie mingjue
Pull a major arcana from this picker wheel!
so!! I finally managed to get this blog back and un-ban it. I think by now I'll stick to my main blog @theawkwardvillainess and keep this one as a backup if something happens again. Maybe I'll think of some new use to this blog but now it'll stay as it is!
had a dream that there was this new tiktok trend called "scrubbing" where people would take images of fictional characters and put them in images of bathtubs and drag around transparent pngs of soap and brushes with their tiktok art tablets and like liquify tool their hair down to mimic giving them a shower. and people would get into flamewars in the comments of every single video over the types of soap they picked and if the images had decently removed backgrounds and if they got soap in their eyes. and it got onto the news because it turned out everyone doing the trend was doing it compulsively like they physically couldn't stop and each video was a solid few minutes long because they were just collectively obsessively recording themselves fake-showering these fictional characters and arguing about it online
btw I recently discovered that you can actually SEE reblogs of shadowbanned posts, just not in the notes but in this thing
of course if there's a lot reblogs you can't go and check them all. but if a post has a few notes you can click on the reblogs one-by one and... here!
my reblog :) and if you click on it and the post with my tags will show up!
I think while you still won't get the notification if I reblogged you will still be able to see my tags without going to my blog specifically and that's a little improvement for our communication or a lifehack if some of your other mutuals get shadowbanned :>
