25+ / a guy but perhaps also a cryptid / queer / Same username on Twitter (abandoned) and Tumblr (primary site). Mostly SFW and suggestive at most, but still 18+ for my comfort. Credit my fanart (no using OCs or comms for others, please) if you use it.
This got lodged into my brain when I was trying to fall asleep a few nights ago and I had a pose sketch I wasn’t doing anything with, so we get this

I think among other factors part of it is the shift into passively lurking & younger people w/out a lot of experience (who also joined fandoms/interests online in the time of such passive "consumption" being their norm)

Like, people, adjust, learn, deal with tedium! It sucks! But you gotta!!!

Like I dunno man, it sucks to start over, but I also don't think people are gonna find you for your fandom or interests if all your art doesn't have any hashtags and its description doesn't include relevant (animal, genre, a series, etc.) keywords and just says "lol" or something
December 26, 2025 at 1:04 AM
Plus, when you start out on a site you gotta kind of build up your posts to attract people and know how to tag/hashtag/use keywords/figure out how algorithms work and if the site even has one on a select site to be seen, anyway, that's kind of been how it's been for decades
December 26, 2025 at 1:02 AM
So many (and in my experience this was the case as well) are inactive accounts that can bolster your follower count but offer nothing else and these aren't people there anymore, on a site with such fucked algorithms your shit gets hidden anyway? Hello?
December 26, 2025 at 12:34 AM
but the bots and empty accounts that cropped up was also crazy

I have to wonder for the people whinging about followers they'd lose, how many are even real people, let alone ones they interacted with?Actually interactive and engaged followers and mutuals is a much more enjoyable experience
December 26, 2025 at 12:31 AM
Like it was a huge drop gradually over time and people stopped replying, stopped retweeting, Twitter turned into an engagement cliff even before it was THIS BAD
Part of it was probably due to the passive "consumption" of media people got into at the time where people didn't interact with jack shit--
December 26, 2025 at 12:28 AM
People complain about a lack of engagement on here but
In my last peeks into Twitter and the period of the end of me posting art there (it's been a while but it was a garbage fire at the time too), the engagement on there was terrible, Like maybe 1-3 likes? I had ~3.5k followers
December 26, 2025 at 12:27 AM
Yeah that sounds like something muskfuck would implement, I can’t say I’m surprised
December 25, 2025 at 2:33 AM
On one hand, I understand someone’s largest source of income and attention may be from there and not everyone will move to a different platform with you,

On the other hand, holy shit dude can we leave the bot infested trash-heap nazi table
December 25, 2025 at 1:27 AM
I’m so out of the loop when it comes to twitter now but can we finally get a larger wave of users leaving there, please,
December 25, 2025 at 1:21 AM
I mean, it’d make Wren’s life easier :) go ahead :)))

-Jiub dabbing
-Some random dunmer guy of no known significance was added but nobody elaborated on who he was, was not the Nerevarine
-I woke up with my body reacting like it was a nightmare

Other things
-Vivec couldn’t wear hats (can you even wear hats in that game)
-People complained that Dagoth ur had shorter nails to prevent his model’s hands/fingers clipping while holding guns
-He had a face under his mask but it was just part of recycled ascended sleepers textures of their face
December 22, 2025 at 12:18 AM
I had a dream they added Morrowind characters to Fortnite (I have never played that game and don’t know why I had a dream about it) and included a friend group all playing as ascended sleepers and corralling any Dagoth urs and herding them into one place while dancing and playing their trunks
December 22, 2025 at 12:16 AM
A thing I finally finished lately after it sat in WIP purgatory. Dagoth ur’s mask but if he had the Dagoth symbol integrated into it (and the tusks from his concept art mask) AKA a fun excuse to do a lot of pencil hatching and delicate lines (very fun when stoned)
December 22, 2025 at 12:12 AM
There’s someone watching me. I can tell.
December 22, 2025 at 12:08 AM
They also brought some side chars who were apparently lesbians back from the dead so it felt like they panicked & went “WAIT WE ARE’T HOMOPHOBIC” while simultaneously barely letting said gay main char directly interact with other male main characters for the rest of the show

It came off REAL BADLY
December 5, 2025 at 10:01 PM
The toxic fandom, staff got involved in ship wars, and they went “This guy’s gay, you’ll meet his partner soon!” and then next immediately killed off said fiancé

They also had a ship that got popular & added plot later on that made them adoptive relatives & it felt on purpose so that was. a thing.

I guess I should add that requests aren’t open as a default, I specifically made a post and asked for House Dagoth themed ones a bit ago because I felt like drawing them and am playing MW again
December 5, 2025 at 5:01 AM
Wren doodles where I was playing with simplifying and streamlining and the sketches, also some Sketches of Dagoth ur from the same draw session I didn’t finish
December 5, 2025 at 1:04 AM
A combo of requests from Tumblr made into one: Dagoth ur walmart run clothes AND Odros sneaking Imperial cigs
He even put a shirt on for that, so first of all how dare you
December 5, 2025 at 12:56 AM
House Dagoth cookout as per an anon’s request on Tumblr
December 5, 2025 at 12:49 AM
I just plopped him outside Raven Rock as an easy place to find him and he ended up fighting dragons and losing frequently

A funnier coincidence was playing as my Nerevarine and an ash zombie who died put him in his will…while his boss (who my Nerevarine obviously killed) was like 100 ft away
November 21, 2025 at 9:39 PM
I did actually make the mod to some capacity (though he didn’t get the shirt or fun fruity drink to carry around), all with his default lines, some cut or spliced, and edited male imperial lines

At the moment it’s sitting on an hdd and needs a lot of tweaks and adjusted scripts
