two essential skills for artists

“good enough” and “fuck it”

“good enough” is when you are working on something and are happy with most of it but can live with a few imperfections, useful when needing to move on from sketch to inking/coloring or what have you.

“fuck it” is when you absolutely hate what you’re doing every step of the way but you post it anyways, very useful during art blocks.

both are useful to help you move on and not obsess over making it perfect, because art is anything but perfect, even photo realistic artists probably see imperfections that someone else might not catch 

these can also be applied to other things in life

rick riordan absolutely does not know manuscript shorthand and there are about 3 million other more pressing problems with mcga than “how does thor have MAGNI and MOÐI as knuckle tats” but the answer to that question regardless is that it’s in 11th c manuscript shorthand and reads MAḠI and MOÐI, ur welcome

FUCK HĀDS

FUCK HANDS is a valid knuckle tatt but i’d worry the space would just make it look like you’re mad at your own hands, and not, they’re your fuckhands, u know

#tbt to yesterday when tumblr user @clitcheese forgot how many knuckles a hand has

Well Actually, I forgot how many letters are in ‘hands’, so maybe get your facts straight? callout culture on this site is so toxic smh

Giving homeless people MONEY instead of FOOD can save their lives this winter, shelters cost money, being able to sit in McDonald’s and nurse a coke for a couple hours to warm up costs money, often accessing public toilets (whether it’s to use them, wash up or just to be out of the wind) costs money. 

Just give homeless people cash, just do it, no excuses, no whining about “enabling their drug habits”, if you have money to spare, give it and possibly save someone from literally freezing to death. 

#even if they spend it on drugs so fucking what #we all have to cope with existence somehow

i used to be one of those “keep stale crackers on hand to give instead of money because if they’re actually hungry theyll take it and if they dont want it theyre faking” people. the thing that killed off the last of that in me was a line in a tumblr post like this one: “people know what they need most, and if what they need most right now is a slight reprieve from their withdrawal symptoms, then who are you to judge them for that?”
