mistermochiman:
sometimes i really wish people could just think for two seconds before they start jumping to conclusions about an artist’s reason for drawing (not a specific picture or anything, just in general). have you ever thought that maybe not everybody who draws actually wants to pursue a future in art? maybe they don’t want to take it seriously at all; maybe it’s just a hobby or...

Tumblr's Support Problem with 'Missing e'
missing-e:
As many users have observed, Tumblr has recently given users a choice to uninstall Missing e or revoke support for your account.

coelasquid:
I suppose while we’re on the subject of encouragement, praise, and critique, it can be just as important to explain why you feel the positive parts of a piece work as to say why you feel the negative parts should be improved. Praise is given so freely, often as code for “I don’t really care but this makes it sound like I’m paying attention” or ” I want to make you feel better”, that...
