Scourge the Hedgehog's a lil bitch and I still love him
So my Dad and brother took separate cars to dinner tonight, and this happened.
they look like they are arguing about who is going to go home and change
Oh, they were.
Jake: You’ve got to be kidding me Dad: You SAW me walk through the kitchen on my way to pick up your sister! Jake: No seriously do you have an extra shirt in your car this is ridiculous
Oh my god they’re gonna kill me they didn’t want to even walk into the restaurant together let alone have this many people reblog this photo
Honestly I’m not deleting my Tumblr solely in the hopes that this post one day hits 1 million notes
I’ve shared this story before, but some of the best advice I’ve ever gotten was from a writing professor who said, “The thing that makes your work interesting isn’t the stuff you’re good at, it’s the stuff you struggle with. Because you’ll either focus on improving those skills until you’re really good or you’ll figure out how to work around it in really cool ways.”
I honestly can’t count how many times I thought someone’s art style was much more fun to look at before they felt they had improved on it. I know people even feel that way about my stuff, too, and I 100% get why, too, though the truth is, the way I used to do my art was the harder and more stressful way! The pencil stuff was grueling! In going from black and white hand-drawn to full color digital I wasn’t “upgrading” to a style I thought was necessarily superior; I like a lot of stuff about it less, but I accepted essentially *downgrading* for the sake of being able to do more work without killing my wrists or using up more of my limited lifespan!
Hi! You might have answered this before, but I wanted to ask how you feel about your art of Scourge being used in RPs? And if you are alright with it, is there a specific way you prefer to have the art attributed to you?

I only have a problem with RPers using my artwork if they don’t link back to the original source.
Recolors sort of have me ehhhh, but again, I care more about them linking back to my art!
The final battle against King Boo in Luigi’s Mansion: Dark Moon has 5 phases: battle phase 1, pursuit phase 1, battle phase 2, pursuit phase 2, and battle phase 3. The pursuit phases are long hallways filled with traps that Luigi must run through while King Boo chases him, while the battle phases have Luigi actually confront King Boo.
In the files of the Luigi’s Mansion Arcade, which uses high-quality versions of many Luigi’s Mansion: Dark Moon assets, an unused music track can be found that would have been assigned to “battle phase 4” of the fight, which can be heard in this post. While all the themes increase in tension as the battle continues, this one is even more frantic.
The existence of this theme suggests that originally, the fight was presumably meant to have 7 phases, with 4 battle phases being connected by 3 pursuit phases. This was likely considered to be too lengthy by the developers, so the last two phases were cut.
are some of the people newer to tumblr aware of the joys of theme customization on desktop? I know some ppl are just on mobile so they can’t really change things but like SO many blogs nowadays have 0 theme customization and just use the default theme and I’m beginning to wonder if they even know about the option. It’s one of the main reasons why I still use tumblr
this post is not to be mean to people for not knowing btw. i just think its good for people to know bc page customization is one of the things that is slowly disappearing from the internet and i suspect that many ppl don’t even realize its something they can do on here bc they’re so used to their only customization options being like a pfp and maybe a header image. The option to do so here is something I desperately want to preserve since its a fantastic middle ground between the bare bones profile customization of twitter and like. coding an entire webpage from scratch.
like for people who don’t know, this is what my blog looks like if you visit it on desktop, outside of the dashboard popups
desktop users who have no theme this is the life you could be living
ppl in the tags asking how to do this, or who did not even know it was an option, here’s a very quick how to:
1. choose a theme. this is the easy part, search “blog themes” or “html themes” in the tumblr search bar, there are MANY blogs out there dedicated to curating lists of free tumblr themes. Find one you like and save the code in a seperate tab. I would probably check to make sure the theme was not created too long ago, as tumblr website changes over the years have broken some older codes/themes. I would also try to find a theme with lots of customization options, as this makes it easier to make your blog totally unique looking, even if you are unfamiliar with html.
2. either go to your blog’s actual page [YOUR-URL.tumblr.com] and click on the little paint palette icon that shows up in the top right corner, OR you go to your blog’s appearance settings, there should be a button that says “edit themes”
3. once you open the blog theme editor, there should be an option to edit html in the top left corner. Select and delete ALL of the present code. Then, paste in the code of your preferred tumblr theme and hit save. You may have to exit and reenter the customization page for the full effects to take place.
4. From this point on, customize to your heart’s content! Just make sure if you are using a theme made by someone else, that you don’t accidentally remove their credits. This can’t really happen unless you are editing the html directly though, so you likely don’t have to worry.
Keep in mind, messing around with tumblr themes still takes time, even if you’re not doing it all from scratch. Think of it like decorating an empty room. It will take time and effort, and it’s not at all necessary, but it’s worth it to make your space feel more like yours.
I always wanted to customize my page but like…any time i see “html” and it has to deal with customizing a page I cry and run away like a scared puppy. So FOR NOW, I’m going to be boring to avoid the utter anguish and despair I’d feel—
i promise you, if you find a theme with customization built in, the only time you will be touching the html is to copypaste it into the theme editor
tumblr has this great function that allows theme creators - the people doing all the html work for you - to put options like colors, changing the size of images and posts on your blog, the text font, etc, into user-friendly buttons and selection screens. Most html themes nowadays have at least a few of these built in! Mine looks like this
you see? no html knowledge required, very simple to use, and still beautiful and unique!
also, if you are still worried, tumblr has the option to revert everything back to the default state, or even restore previous themes. Your blog won’t be bunked up forever if you mess up some html editing if you DO decide to explore. Go ham!
Also some of the most annoying Tumblr behaviors go away once you’re using a custom theme.
For bonus cred, try to keep things accessible, at the very least high-contrast, legible font. Check WCAG standards for good contrast ratios.
The problem about having brainrot for your own fic is that I want to talk about it constantly but I don’t want to spoil anything but I want to talk about motives and characters and just the events but I want to preserve mystery and suspense
did some for-fun dubs of a couple follower-requested IDW Sonic scenes!! got the bug to voice these characters in something not improvised and with a more genuine tone. i think they turned out pretty good!
