(Because I am a blog of many interests, and making lists is ✨️fun✨️)
Follow me on my art-Instagram for updates and yapping in general: tottertarts
I have started a PROPER artblog now too! -> tottertarts
This is a masterlist of all the art I’ve posted on here, because my art is pretty spread out among the shitposts my blog is decorated with, and even though all my art is tagged with “#my art”, I realize it doesn’t really help lmao.
Feel like some people may need to read this. Basically when you under eat you crave sugar a lot more because it's an easy source of energy for your body
Some people saying "uhh shouldn't this be obvious" but there is genuinely such a push right now to paint normal human body functions as outdated nonsense that should be ignored for better health. Like cravings for sugar and carbs will always have a reason for existing, it's not some sort of evil trick to sabotage your diet, just probably means you're lacking something
mutuals have this incredible power to curse you with liking kinks you previously would never engage with even with a gun to your head

I don't actually think every problematic expression has a better, longer version with the opposite meaning that oddly enough no one heard of until it surfaced on the internet like ten years ago. I think that is potentially not true
"The full expression is 'the blood of the covenant is thicker than the water of the womb'." Is that why we can find plenty of references to "blood is thicker than water" from the 1700s and earlier but no reference to the longer one until the 1990s then
"It's not 'the customer is always right', it was 'the customer is always right in matters of taste'" Is that why when you look the longer quote up you get no source, and if you look up the former you get a history of how it was coined by a department store owner in the context of taking customer complaints seriously in an era of more-or-less open fraud and retailers saying caveat emptor
We can say a phrase is useless to us now due to cultural changes without pretending there was a secret, true phrase that was always there and always in line with modern values and everyone who used the 'wrong' phrase for centuries was an ignorant fool. Like, "the customer is always right" was rooted in a context of retailers never heeding complaints about safety or quality, we can just go "this isn't relevant in an era where complaining customers have too much power" without making up an unattested history of it really being about letting people buy ugly hats

if I ever tell you “lmk what you think if you read/play/watch it!” I am firmly inviting you to send me a play by play minute by minute cataloguing of your thoughts about The Thing
The parking attendant paused by the double-length bay. Intended for mobile homes and cars with trailers, it was currently occupied by a sleeping dragon.
No parts of it extended beyond the lines, and the paper ticket was clearly displayed, impaled on a horn.
The parking attendant moved on.
I was going to just queue it for later but then it stuck in my brain, and I decided to make it everyone's problem
Do you remember the episode of Spongebob where he's training gary for the snail race and does a coach persona + calls gary a girl and has an aside where he's like "I called you a lady to demean you 🤓" and right after he says that it cuts to sandy and she somehow telepathically feels that Spongebob just did something misogynistic and us like I feel like I need to kick Spongebobs ass for some reason. And then she appears just at the end of the episode to kick his ass.
