Weirdcore Community - Tumblr Posts
HI GUYS GUESS WHAT
it's my 1 year weirdcore anniversary tomorrow !! i joined weirdcord the 19th of june 2023 and made my first edit the 20th :) the blog was made probably a few weeks or months after that (i dont remember exactly when) but i'm counting it as when i actually started making edits rather than when i started posting them. happy 1 year of weirdcobycore!!!! i might make a post or something for it maybe with my favorite/important edits from each month, idk lol
1 year of weirdcobycore: JUNE 2023
i haven't seen any other weirdcore creators do this but i thought it would be fun to do a sort of recap of my past year of weirdcore. since i organize my edits by month i'll be making separate posts, maybe one a day, for all of the 12 months, and i'll pick a few edits to highlight.
i hadn't made this blog yet in june, so these edits were probably featured in one of my edit dump (linked: june edit dump) posts along with july's.
btw new original edits are still going to be being posted during this time, i've been on the grind lately so i've got lots to post :)
^ june 20, 2023 | this was my first edit i made!!!! tbh it's pretty bad, but still has a vibe.
^ june 23, 2023 | this is my first gif edit and also probably one of my favorite edits i've made, probably because it's the first i made based on irl events so it hits hard personally to me. imo it just has some great weirdcore vibes along with the personal meaning. i got the hang of weirdcore really quickly, in june i made 11 edits and made some really good ones (imo) despite not being in the weirdcore community for very long at all at that point
^ june 27, 2023 | this is another one of my favorite edits. not much to say other than that, i just really like it :) it was the 10th edit i made, pretty cool
1 year of weirdcobycore: AUGUST 2023
(no i did Not forget to do this yesterday)
august was another crazy month, i made another 30 edits so this will also be a decently long post :)
^ Aug 4, 2023 | this edit was my first to get somewhat popular on here, i think it got around 300 or 400 notes, it was also one of the first few i posted that wasn't part of an edit dump. i think its pretty good.
^ Aug 13, 2023 | this was my first edit to REALLY blow up on here, getting over 1k notes. kinda crazy that it was so soon after i started posting, i actually thought it was a lot later. this is far from my favorite edit, in terms of both concept and in effort to make it. i'm kind of disappointed this was the one to blow up but that's just how it goes i guess lol.
^ Aug 12, 2023 (left) and Aug 21, 2023 (right) | these 2 edits are just a few of my favorite edits from August. the minecraft edit is special to me because minecraft was a huge part of my childhood. i really like the editing on the other one, plus it also has personal meaning to me.
after august, my rapid edit-making pace very quickly dropped off, due to my school year starting and also a lot of burnout. so the next few posts will feature more like 1-2 edits instead of 4 like i've been doing :)
1 year of weirdcobycore: SEPTEMBER 2023
september was a flop month, this was when the burnout (and school starting) started to hit hard so i didn't make many edits. the next few months are similar so i'll probably just share a favorite edit
Sep 6, 2023 | the thing i like most about this edit is the caption, it's some lines from a poem i wrote. it feels very fitting with the base and has an eerie feeling
1 year of weirdcobycore: OCTOBER and NOVEMBER 2023
due to the small number of edits i made during these months i've decided to put them together into one post since the last post with only 1 edit was sort of pathetic lol
Oct 22, 2023 | this is probably my favorite edit i made in october, i love the inverted text shadow and generally just the concept of it. i don't think it did very well when i posted it which was disappointing but that's how it is lol
Nov 16, 2023 | for this edit i randomly came across this image and thought it would be cool to make an edit with it. it breaks the traditional weirdcore rule of 'no people' which is something i wanted to try. i also remember this one didn't do very well when i posted it but i'm still very proud of it. it's pretty simplistic on the editing front but it does well i think
Nov 26, 2023 | i had to include this edit here because cute kitty :)
1 year of weirdcobycore: DECEMBER 2023
although i didn't make many edits in december i made a few that i really like and are probably in my top favorite edits that i've made, so here are a few !!
Dec 4, 2024 | this is another of my favorite edits of all time. it's inspired by video game glitches, namely, the way old versions of minecraft break when you go extremely far away from spawn. i'm glad this edit got to be pretty popular here since i'm very proud of it lol
Dec 11, 2023 | this is the first edit from a sort of 'series' i've been doing, which some people might have noticed, the "findhome .org" edits. these edits all have some amount of connection to my personal life for various reasons. i love this base image particularly because it was one i took myself, through a foggy bus window, which is what caused the bloom of the light between the trees.
1 year of weirdcobycore: JANUARY 2024
these are the first few edits of 2024!!!!
^ Jan 2, 2024 | this was the first edit of 2024!! it's pretty cool but there's not much else to say about it lol
^ Jan 18, 2024 (left) and Jan 7, 2024 (right) | these are 2 more edits part of the "findhome .org" series. i love both of them and they both have connection to my personal life :)
1 year of weirdcobycore: FEBRUARY 2024
in february i didn't make a lot of edits, but the few that i did make i'm mostly very proud of :)
^ Feb 10, 2024 | i love this edit a lot mostly because of the caption, it resonates with me a lot :)
^ Feb 6, 2024 | I had to include this one because it's another song lyric from a band i love (los campesinos). ive made probably like 5 edits with their song lyrics and this is one that i'm probably the most proud of !!
1 year of weirdcobycore: MARCH 2024
march was when i started to finally pick up editing again. i made a lot of edits i really like in march so this post will have a few more than the last ones
Mar 12, 2024 | this is one of a few edits i made based on things related to my childhood. these edits are some of my favorites ive made :)
Mar 12, 2024 | here is another one of those edits! i probably won't end up explaining the meaning behind them both because it's personal and also because i want people to be able to interpret the edits how they want :) this edit got pretty popular on here too which is cool
Mar 21, 2024 | another one of my favorite edits!! i feel like its different from what i usually make with the hand drawn shapes but it has such a vibe to it which i love
1 year of weirdcobycore: APRIL 2024
tbh not much i have to say about april :) i'll just share a few of my favorite edits here
^ Apr 14, 2024 | i love this edit tbh, it just has some great vibes i think. its so simple but it works
^ Apr 23, 2024 | this edit is pretty similar to the last one with the numbers. idk why, i think i just liked the idea from the above one so wanted to do something similar. i also just think the base is really cool lol
^ Apr 25, 2024 | this edit is a bit more abstract than i usually do but i really love it. it very much fits the "weird" part of weirdcore. i dont think it did too well on here, unfortunately but that's just how it is lol
1 year of weirdcobycore: MAY 2024
may into june i start picking up on making edits again after a few months of burnout and just being pretty busy so there are quite a few for may :)
^ May 12, 2024 | here is an edit i love a lot. i think the base does a lot of heavy lifting in this edit but it works
^ May 4, 2024 | this edit is kinda special because i had it in my wip's from months and months ago. i started out with the orb idea and the base but couldn't figure out how to finish it, until i was going through the wip's folder and found it again, and finally finished it. i think the results are pretty good. i love edits with orbs they're just so silly lol
^ May 8, 2024 (left) and May 21, 2024 (right) | these 2 edits are just a few more favorites from this month. i love the effect for the gif on the left and the one on the right has personal meaning to me so naturally i love it. (just decided to put these 2 together to save space for this post lol, dont want it too long)
May 15, 2024 | i was really just doing random stuff with this edit, i wanted to try something a bit different to what i usually make and was unsure of how it was going to do. it ended up doing pretty well. i mostly wanted to use "the universe replied" in an edit because its from a song/band that i really love (and have used many song lyrics from before in past edits lol)
1 year of weirdcobycore: JUNE 2024
this will be the last 1 year post!!! all of these edits will be from before june 20, the date i made my first edit a year before.
Jun 8, 2024 | i really love this edit because it's an album title and song lyric from the same band (los campesinos!!!) that i have made lots of edits with song lyrics from. as i have said before, hello los camp followers from my main :) i see you
Jun 18, 2024 | this is one of my favorite edits of all time probably because it has very specific personal meaning to me and my childhood which hits really hard. i made several other edits which were also related to this one.
and that's it for the 1 year of weirdcobycore!!! ty to everyone who has supported me and this blog. i will continue to make weirdcore at my own pace for as long as it's fun for me, which is looking like it will be a while lol. idk if i'll do this next year but i have a long time to decide. ty again for all you guys' support :D
