im noticing that for a lot of americans “free palestine” has been an ideological motto and symbol rather than them actually believing in their heart that freedom is attainable and necessary
Two very different vibes from two very different fics.
Anyways: guess what I'm working on again after literal years?
Street Urchin!
Prepare for a new chapter!
(Though I know no one who reads it actually sees these posts. Honestly, it feels like I'm talking to a wall that occasionally gives me a pat on the head for encouragement.)
There are so many fucking thoughts in my head about this fic. Am I gonna do some parallels to the rooftop gang? Maybe. You'll just have to wait and see :)
There is no possible reality where this is in any way capable of being passed off as self-defense. It was never self-defense. It is, and always has been, a genocide.
Crying babies. Crying babies. This is, beyond a shadow of a doubt, meant to draw out and kill civilians while also making it far more difficult to locate and aid children who are trapped or alone.
If you have money to spare, please consider donating to some of the fundraisers on Operation Olive Branch to help people escape this genocide.
Well, I finally found an armor design that I like, and now I'm figuring out how to color it. Prepare for some oddly colored armor girls in the future! (My pens are also dying so I'm switching to a medium I guess.)
I'm digging the warmer tones, so guess what next year's color pallet is gonna be.
2024 has been rough for everyone, more so for some than others.
Here's your friendly advice for the year:
Take care of yourself, make yourself a better person, and help make the world a better place. We all know this shitshow needs some shining lights to help guide it.
Happy new year people! Remember; you're always improving even if it seems like you're stuck in the same place. A good way to know this is to keep an annual something to redo every year to see your progress. Ever since 2018 I've been doing things I never do with my drawings, ink, armor, and coloring with pens. (The pen one is mainly because they sparkle and I don't use them for anything else, so I've gotta do something with them.)
So I started Assassin's Apprentice by Robin Hobb and-
HOLY SHIT
I was raised on Ranger's Apprentice, and there was a good chunk of me that thought this was just gonna be similar but NO
I was expecting Burrich to fill the grumpy mentor turned father figure
You know, like Halt
(spoiler warning below)
But this dude. In the SECOND CHAPTER kills Fitz's dog, a dog mind you that I was excited to see become an animal companion who could SHARE MINDS with Fitz, because apparently sharing minds with animals turns the human into a beast!
I call bullshit! I say that it's just an older form of magic that's been misconstrued as time went on!
Killing his dog is gonna do irreparable damage to Fitz! Nosy was part of him! What the fuck Burrich!
I'm in love with this book so far if it isn't obvious lmao
yo if youre a cis woman who considers yourself an ally to trans women please take a second to read this
stop engaging with terfs, its not helping. it has never helped. stop reblogging terf posts to poke fun at them, stop directly engaging in arguments with terfs for the sake of getting off some petty insult or telling them off, youre not proving anything and youre not going to change their minds. doing something to “piss off terfs” does not help trans women, it just frustrates terfs, who will then take their frustrations out on trans women. terfs might tell u off or insult u but ultimately they see u as a poor victim who has been Brainwashed By The Trans Rights Activists™, youre not a target, youre not the one who has to deal with their anger, we are.
if u want to help trans women do things to uplift and support trans women, if u see a trans women is being harassed on this site by terfs throw some positivity her way. dont rile up ppl who are attacking someone else just to earn radical discourse brownie points.
Like I went to my grandparents' house right after work (grandpa's birthday) and I just kept running into shit. Grandma's walker (I apologized and then paused and then walked off because I just apologized to a walker), the wall, the counter top, the fucking door too!
Meanwhile, at work, I'm dodging shit like I'm in the matrix! Wtf
Hear me out: the scene with Will practicing his archery right before getting bagged by the asshat trio is always in my mind. Just. All the targets? It various trees surrounding him? A small, small boy, not yet a man with the trees looming over him, covered in his arrows?
10/10
What are your favourite scenes from The Ruins of Gorlan and The Burning Bridge? Which ones would you like to see illustrated?
I might or might not draw them but I'm curious anyway :]
