craziest phenomenon on the internet lately is people who will be like âcringe culture is DEAD be WEIRD be FREE have FUN cringe is DEAD do WHATEVER YOU WANT FOREVER!â and then immediately crucify anyone who is queer in a way they donât like. or wants to kiss a fictional character. or thinks the computer is hot. like ohhh i get it youâre only okay with weird people you personally can tolerate. you are a tar pit
hello tumblr user. a week ago you reblogged a post stating âcringe culture is deadâ, and today a post where a user calls an anime boy their boyfriend has come across your dash. if you reblog, reply, or vaguepost about this being âannoyingâ or âweirdâ or âcringeâ the piranhas in the lake below you will bite your dick off. if you say and do nothing you can leave. good luck
Wanted to give my girl Zielona the full illustration treatment for her dracthyr form (she’s a green dragon actually) :3c Wasn’t intended on being a Lunar New Year piece when I did it over the holidays, but hey she IS a wood dragon!

The Constellatte, a whimsical coffee shop for Starlings. Anchored on Eonid’s largest moon, Minastra, it serves Starlings and Starcatchers!
Lore:
Originating from the Pleiades, Starlings are celestial elves anointed by the Seven Sisters. Initially cosmic cartographers, their role evolved as they encountered diverse beings. With Valkyrie-like powers and bonding with their specific star, they guide souls and traverse celestial realms, creating constellations that chart their ethereal journeys.
Starlings & Fallen Starling
Starlings transform through a sacred bond with a Pleiades star and their own star, which reveals their heart and a hidden weapon or item for their celestial journey. Fallen Starlings, deriving power from falling stars, possess similar abilities but in a charming, fairy-sized form.
Making a Wish:
Voice your wish to a falling star and find yourself teleported to The Constellatte by nebula mist. On a starry dock, meet Captain Aurora and her crew. With a magical Keyspoon in hand, choose a Pleiades Sister and craft your wish with her inspiration. Afterwards, summon a celestial escort or familiar to make your cosmic dream a reality.
After Haraleah cracks open your Fallen star egg to reveal your Starling familiar, animal familiar, or weapon familiar (elemental base) (Fallen Starling/Muse/Weapon) at The Constellatte, you can then go on to immerse yourself in the vibrant life of Crystal City. Explore districts celebrating each of the Seven Sisters, bustling with group events and fairy-guided activities. Engage in games, contests, and magical duels alongside others who’ve wished upon falling stars. Witness your wish unfold and enjoy the journey to its fulfillment in this celestial haven. the Crystal City.

More details:
We are a kofi shop that was installed as a waystation for Starlings. These Cosmic Elven Valkyrie map the cosmos, usher souls, and nowâŚÂ grant wishes.
Lore Basis for the Coffee (Kofi in this to be punny lol) Shop, The Constellatte:Â
*when a Pleiades Elf ascends, they’re bonded to a star. That star’s power is sealed in place by a large metal halo with spikes, but some go in and hold the star. The Starling pulls the metal from the Star, claiming it as their own and as they do, their Starfyre reshapes the metal into their own personal weapon, item, or accessory they so choose (like it could become a pendant + bracelets since it didn’t become a whole ass weapon xD).
 So the new Fallen Starlings have the same weapons and items a regular Starling would get, but they tend to be fairy sized or more compact so they can build up starfyre faster. They are then bound to you in order to protect you and your wish. You see, when someone makes a wish in the Constellatte, their door is prepared, and the wish they order off the menu, has been customized and is now accessible behind that door.
 It’s usually an experience. like, in lore terms, people would order a moonlit night, with a fairy circle, a unicorn and gentle nymphs brushing their hair. but to do this, they use the mists to connect to other realms, worlds, timelines, and it’s not always safe. Their purpose is to guard you while helping you make your wish come true!
hey tumblr. im here to beg for your help. I miss this place. I do. I miss it and Twitter is just getting worse and worse. I wanted to stick it out so I could mooch off their servers for free, but they keep monetizing everything and that is my ONLY source of income due to followers and views. I know I’m probably asking a lot, but I want to come back so bad, but I need your help to spread the word because I want these adoptables to go further than it might appear right here.
no lie. I want to make a video game out of it. I want to make a playing card game. i want to make a dating game for it. and all of it i’ve already started mapping out.
I just need your help so that when the time comes to post some, I know they’ll find a home. Cause I’m in Alpha testing right now, which means there’s going to be waves of different things coming and all of my kofi members have a chance to sign up for free prizes while I develop them! Find me over on https://ko-fi.com/thevioletstarling
or drop a follow here or on the Constellatte tumblr here. I wanna keep it updated so it’s easier to find stuff there than on discord lol
Taylor Swift bravely standing up for the right of billionaires to destroy public information. (link here)
I mean…I’m pretty sure it’s illegal to track someone’s flight (or any personal info such as phone number or address) information, it’s stalking behavior and she’s worried about her safety, but do go on about how she’s protecting oligarchs by doing that đ¤ˇ
It is not illegal to track someone’s flight; this is publically held information by the FAA. Private planes are part of a taxpayer funded network of airports, air traffic control, etc; all of which need to be able to talk to each other openly and track which planes are going where in order for that system to function properly.
Hiding this information is a public safety issue; if no one knows the plane is there, it creates problems for the safety of that plane and the safety of other pilots flying nearby. If no one knows the plane is in the air, then some hobbyist doctor in his small aircraft could ram right into it and boom, you’ve got a midair collision raining aircraft parts down on a small town in ‘flyover country.’
Funnily enough, the flights are also tracked publically FOR THE SAFETY OF THE PEOPLE ON THE PLANE. If there is an issue with the aircraft, local emergency responses need to be able to identify where the plane went down as quickly as possible in an attempt to save lives. Otherwise, you could end up in a situation like the infamous Malaysia Airlines Flight 370. Elimnating public tracking of her aircraft would probably put Taylor in a lot more harm than broadcasting what airports she flew into/out of ever could. Again, public safety issue.
The FAA was hardline on this during the 2008 financial crisis when lots of major bank executives tried to divert public opinion by scrubbing their flight records (for some reason people were upset that the banks who’d just gotten a bunch of taxpayer bailout money were taking lots of private flights!)
A few years back when Elon Musk claimed this exact same Florida student was posting his ‘assasination coordinates’ and tried to get legal recourse against him, his legal team quickly found out he had no standing to sue. All Musk could do was ban this kid from twitter.
Again, this information is tracked for public safety. It is legal and important that this tracking information is available. This doesn’t stop being true just because the rich person complaining is someone you personally like.
If Taylor Swift was really worried about her safety, then she would do what a lot of other rich people have done these past few years and charter her private flights. That way she’s not the owner of the aircraft and, while the plane is still visible, it’s unknown who’s on it. The CEO of Apple pulls this move, no reason Taylor couldn’t do the same.
But she’s not doing that. Because this isn’t about her safety. This is a petty move because she’s upset the whole ‘private plane impact on climate change’ discourse dinged her reputation a few years back.
And rather than selling her plane or taking less private flights, she selfishly wants to keep one of her favorite toys.
I love when swifties come in to defend a weird billionaire without verifying easily verifiable information that they then present as fact. Its hilarious actually.
ADS-B isn’t some sort of secret thing this guy has hacked. The planes LITERALLY scream this info out to anyone in range. (So other pilots know where planes in the area are are as a backup to ATC maintaining separation.)
Here’s every plane currently within a 100nmi (its aviation, you’re getting knots) range of my house

Character sheet for my gross gremlin of a gnome, circa Act 3 of that Baldur’s Gate game everyone’s playin’.
I feel like I set out to try to make good choices in this game, but by the end Muds slept with a devil, made a deal with an incubus, allied with a hag, ascended his seeing-eye-vampire, and let’s just say we neglected Gale more than we thought.
Buuuut honestly I’m happy with the ending Muds got and playing him as a gnome has been one of my favorite experiences with him. Love how I’ve had this man in my head for twelve years and he still finds ways to surprise me.
