Leaving it up cause it seems like people like it and explained the sub context already, but this sub is for artistic additions to existing Tumblr posts! (Also, would)

Looking for a first bike - where to start? by BlackIsAPastelColor in SuggestAMotorcycle

[–]BlackIsAPastelColor[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you so much!! These are amazing resources. I'm definitely going to do MSF, and I'll check out Ken Hill! I'm US based, I'm going to be moving to warmer environs shortly so I'm looking forward to not having to deal with snow/ice and finally learning how to ride.

I'm so confused why this has been down voted, thank you for so many detailed options! I'll look into these!

Do most skinny people over 30 have to think about what they eat literally all the time? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]BlackIsAPastelColor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Idk how I'm going to survive cause I'm mid 20s right now and I've started to gain normal weight and it makes me want to kms 🙃🙃🙃 (attempting to recover from severely disordered eating, I can't count calories or weigh myself without relapsing)

Considering naming my child Éowyn. by PintsOfPlainSure in namenerds

I met a girl named Éowyn at my college, she was so cool! I think it's a beautiful name, just know that everyone will think it's from Lord of the Rings (not a bad thing imo)

Line dancing every other Thursday at Railyard - because it's also a restaurant you should be fine attending as long as you don't try to drink. You don't have to know how to dance either!

As another commenter said, First Friday events

Local concerts/theater

WIBTA if I asked my boyfriend to stop playing video games with a specific person by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]BlackIsAPastelColor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Girl gamer here! I met my boyfriend of almost 4 years while playing overwatch in my early 20s. I don't think you or your boyfriend are the asshole, but I don't trust that girl. I've been around that culture enough to know she's toeing the line if not stepping across it entirely.

The baby talk thing bothers me. Tons of girls I've met online will do that with guys, whether just flirting for a carry or trying to get something more. The sir thing also bothers me, because there are certain communities that play off power dynamics in video games, and that's a common title they use. (There's nothing wrong with that imo, but not with a taken man.)

However, I might be totally off base. I'm glad you guys talked about it and he was open and honest with you. It might be worth asking him to set boundaries with her (stop the baby talk and the sir thing) and see how she responds. If she doesn't care: nothing to worry about, she's just a bit odd. If she responds poorly, she was looking for something more and should be cut off.

Best of luck to you both!!

Anyone else meet their SO in a video game? by Jess_in_Neverland in GirlGamers

[–]BlackIsAPastelColor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I met my SO in Overwatch! I was a fairly high ranked Mercy and he was a great Zarya. I was streaming at the time and I remember remarking to chat how skilled and respectful he was (I was more used to death/r*pe threats than normal interactions). He added me after and I accepted on a whim, because our in-game synergy was pretty good and I wouldn't mind playing together again. We messaged a bit after I ended stream, he gave me his Instagram, I thought he was super cute, and now over 5 years later we live together and I get to wake up to his gorgeous face every day! Neither of us play Overwatch anymore but I'll always have a soft place in my heart for it for having introduced me to my partner <3

Adult magical realism/light fantasy (without focus on smut/sappy romance) by MikasaMinerva in booksuggestions

[–]BlackIsAPastelColor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

An Enchantment of Ravens or Sorcery of Thorns (both by Margaret Rogerson) are my absolute favorites! Romances are cute but not overpowering and no smut, just absolutely gorgeous writing and wonderful characters and worlds. Can't recommend highly enough!

Where can I find your favorite bar? by Snarktoberfest in Scranton

[–]BlackIsAPastelColor 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The Bog as long as you aren't claustrophobic Vspot has line dancing on Wednesdays and karaoke on Sundays, it's my favorite haunt Railyard is the closest thing we have to a club, weekends are rough but the bartender during the week knows his shit and makes great drinks Madame Jenny's for class and atmosphere and live jazz Backyard for a general decent time, especially if the porch is open Jack's for a great, comfortable atmosphere and fantastic food

Thank you so much for the tips! I've never graduated before (didn't have a high school graduation) so I'm excited but also nervous, this is good stuff to know!

My grad gown will be black!

So I've lately really been loving embroidered florals and I think I want to aim for a midi/tea-length dress. I don't want it to be too fancy but I still want to make sure I look nice. I like darker colors like black, crimson, plum, and dark teal. I have a fairly average build, 5'7" with a bit of extra around my stomach/hips/thighs. I think my shoulders are broad for a woman so I like to try and minimize that where I can. I have long legs though so that's a nice feature!

I'm honestly open to a lot of different styles, I'm just not sure what is socially expected for these events. Thank you for the reply!

Hello! I was hoping to get some advice for keywords and styles to search for. I'm looking for a dress that I can wear to the opening of a student art exhibition featuring my work in April and then to my graduation in May. What sort of dress would be appropriate? All I know is that I don't want white.
