Y'know. Empathy Isn't Just Feeling Another Person's Pain In Your Chest And Feeling Their Tears In Your

Y'know. Empathy isn't just feeling another person's pain in your chest and feeling their tears in your eyes.

It's also "dang, that sucks a lot dude." It's also a pat on the shoulder. It's also giving someone a bit of your tasty food. It's also offering to distract them with a game, or some fun conversation. It's also letting them blab on about whatever's going on, being an ear for them. It's also offering solutions when they're ready and willing to hear them.

You don't need to Feel™ to have empathy for someone. You just need to know that something sucks and want them to feel better.

Hey, @topazshadowwolf . I Know This Isn't The Most Polished Or Accurate Picture, But I Wanted To Draw
Hey, @topazshadowwolf . I Know This Isn't The Most Polished Or Accurate Picture, But I Wanted To Draw

Hey, @topazshadowwolf . I know this isn't the most polished or accurate picture, but I wanted to draw your late kitty Hickman for you. We all appreciate you and your works, and this is my way of thanking you. You have made me laugh and cry and especially daww on numerous occasions with your great writing. You are what I think of when I imagine any scenario of Dadmare, and what I compare to when reading anyone else's works about it. You are so inspiring as a storyteller, and I thank you for providing all that you have to us.

You have said through Nightmare that there are times to be sad, and now is one of those times. I hope that you are able to mourn him properly. I don't know if your beliefs allow for animals in heaven, but I thought you might like a version of him with wings and a halo.

So now that we've settled down on the memes, I think we can all agree

So Now That We've Settled Down On The Memes, I Think We Can All Agree
So Now That We've Settled Down On The Memes, I Think We Can All Agree

These two had the same flavor profile

It's been years since I had a trix cereal bar but I will stand by my claim of that being the same taste as the grimace shake

But...what if he isn't small? 🔎

character misses their shot and the villain goes "ha! you missed." and the main character goes "did i?" and then shoots the villain again while they're frantically looking around the room for what the hero could possibly have aiming for instead

Edit: Now with an ID from @a-captions-blog! Thank you for writing it!

[Art description: A Pokémon-themed comic featuring OP as a Pikachu. Long description follows.

1. The tips of Pikachu’s ears are shown with text that says, ‘I’m a Pikachu / My world is filled with lots of cool stuff. Sometimes it feels like anything is possible!’ Under this is a collage showing a Charizard, a Pidgeotto, a Nidoking, an Eevee, and an Ivysaur, all in the background as the Pikachu looks up in wonder. Text reads, ‘All sorts of types, all sorts of attacks, all sorts of Pokemon.’

2. Text says, ‘But...only two ways a Pikachu’s tail could look.’ Two boxes in the upper corners show the male and female Pikachu tails, respectively. The male has a rectangular end to his tale, and the female has a heart-shaped end to hers. Text continues, ‘So then, what am I?’ A large drawing of the narrator Pikachu is shown, with an arrow pointing to their tail, whose end is split somewhat like scissors and doesn’t match either the male or female drawing above.

3. Text says, ‘Too pointy to be [female], too much of a V-shape to be [male]. I thought there was something wrong with me.’ Under this are three cascading panels showing the Pikachu from below at an angle emphasizing their tail. The second panel shows mel further away, and in the final panel she have disappeared entirely. Text on the panels reads, ‘I felt / very, very, very / alone.’

4. Text says, ‘But then, something happened. I found others like me.’ The art shows the narrator reaching out to another Pikachu. Under this are three other Pikachu. One has a rounded tail, one has a tail that has been stitched up to be rectangular, and one has a tail with a slight spike at the tip.

5. Closeups are shown of each of the tails from the previous panel, with text that says, ‘Round tails, scarred tails, spiky tails.’ Under this is a drawing of the Pikachu all hugging with lightning coming from their cheeks. Text reads, ‘They told me nothing was wrong with me, and I wasn´t alone anymore.’

6. Text says, ‘There are many ways a Pikachu’s tail can look. I’ve heard there’s at least over 30 different variations.’ Under this are two panels. The first panel shows the narrator lying on their back on a background of male and female symbols. Text reads, ‘Some days are still hard.’ In the second panel, the Pikachu with the scarred tail is shown with text that says, ‘My friend tells me her tail used to look just like mine. It was taken from her.’

8. The narrator is shown sitting and looking upwards. Text reads, ‘Some trainers won’t accept Pikachu that aren’t [male] or [female]. They alter our tails without our consent. But things are getting better. We are making change. We’re fighting so that our tails will be left alone.’ Under this is a panel showing the four Pikachu running happily towards the right. Text reads, ‘We’re all on a spectrum. Every tail looks different; anything is possible.’

The final text reads, ‘This is a comic about intersex people.’ The watermark in the lower right says @ PostManic. \End descriptions

THAT'S JUST ME GOD DAMNIT.

WHERE IS MY FANTASY?!

Surprise! Tumblr just got turned into an epic fantasy RPG, just like [your favorite appropriate media franchise]. And the Tumblr RPG's plot needs to have all of its characters covered, in roles both large and small.

That means that you are assigned to a stereotypical RPG role inside our new fantasy world. Spin this wheel to find out what you are now doing for a living.
