Bizarre unused enemy found in development files for Yoshi’s Island. Its internal name is “HONEKURAGE”, which translates to “bone jellyfish”, which is ironic due to jellyfish having no bones in real life. From the two animations present, it can be assumed that the enemy would have acted similar to how Dry Bones behave in most 2D Mario platformers.

Shoutout to the people who grew up in a house where being gay or trans was just never talked about.
Shoutout to the people whose parents support lgbt rights but never told their kids until they were in their teens or twenties because they said it was “difficult to explain to children”.
Shoutout to the people whose religious communities came out in support just a little too late.
Shoutout to everyone afraid to come out just because they know they’ll be safe physically but they don’t know how everything will change socially.
Shoutout to everyone whose internalized homophobia that they’re trying to overcome came from subtle cues and not explicit statements.
Shoutout to the in betweeners. The pain you felt is real.
I like how everyone is saying no
someone: hey I noticed this thing you did in your writing!
me, kicking my feet up flirtatiously: oh??? do you want to hear my thoughts on why I did that? do you want a play-by-play of the language choices in every related sentence? do you want an exhaustive breakdown of The Themes???
Nice of the princess to invite us to pride, gay luigi
This has been bugging me a bit so I might as well make a note of it, since Tumblr seems to be making it harder and harder to do this.
Anyway, if you pay attention to urls, you might notice that when you link to someone’s tumblr blog, there are two options. This affects how the post appears in your browser! Let’s take this cute Ace Attorney comic as an example. If you click the “share” link on a post, it gives you a url that looks like this - https://www.tumblr.com/leaping-ocelots/718922746931904512/minart-was-takeni-started-spirit-of-justice?source=share
And this displays in the Tumblr dash view, like this.

HOWEVER, if you change the url to the way that urls here used to work, with the username in the front - https://leaping-ocelots.tumblr.com/post/718922746931904512/minart-was-takeni-started-spirit-of-justice
You see the post as it’s meant to be seen, with the Tumblr’s layout properly in place!

Why does this matter? Well I like to link to the post with the user’s theme in place since that makes it easier for people who don’t have a Tumblr to see it. You used to be able to right click on a username to get the direct url by going to “copy link” (they used to let you click the top right corner of a post to get the link as well, it seems like they’re just cutting off more and more ways to do this).

However, in the last day or so Tumblr’s changed it so if you copy link as before, it’s just the base Tumblr url, not the link to the post - zarla-s.tumblr.com instead of zarla-s.tumblr.com/numbers/posturl for example. This makes it annoying to share the post without using the “share” button, which always directs to the dash view. After some poking around, I eventually found the direct link again. It’s not in exactly an intuitive place though.

It’s here. If you click the dots then go to the date it was posted, you can copy link from there to get the right link to the direct post on the person’s tumblr. It also shaves off the extra “share” bit from the url - https://www.tumblr.com/leaping-ocelots/718922746931904512/minart-was-takeni-started-spirit-of-justice?source=share
See that “?source=share” there? That’s not necessary. Actually, if you ever see anything on a url that has a ? in front of it, you can just cut it off the url and it won’t change anything. It tidies up the link nicely! Just for reference if you’ve got a super messy link or something or if you just don’t like those url additions on principle.
Anyway I don’t know who I’m making this post for! It was just bugging me!!
okay i'm officially back to being obnoxious about shit nobody else is going to care about
