the funniest meltdown ive ever had was in college when i got so overstimulated that i could Not speak, including over text. one of my friends was trying to talk me through it but i was solely using emojis because they were easier than trying to come up with words so he started using primarily emojis as well just to make things feel balanced. this was not the Most effective strategy... until. he tried to ask me "you okay?" but the way he chose to do that was by sending "👉🏼👌🏼❓" and i was so shocked by suddenly being asked if i was dtf that i was like WHAT???? WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY TO ME?????????? and thus was verbal again

#yeehaw #1k #5k #10k #posts that got cursed. blasted. im making these tag updates after... 19 hours? #also i have been told it should say speech loss bc nonverbal specifically refers to the permanent state. did not know that! #unfortunately i fear it is so far past containment that even if i edited it now it would do very little. but noted for future reference #edit 2: nvm enough ppl have come to rb it from me directly that i changed the wording a bit. hopefully this makes sense #also. in case anyone is curious. though i doubt anyone who is commenting these things will check the original tags #1) my friend did not do this on purpose in any way. it was not intended to distract me or to hit on me. im a lesbian hes a gay man. cmon now #he felt very bad about it afterwards. i thought it was hilarious but it was very embarrassed and apologetic #2) “why didn't he use 🫵🏼?” didn't exist yet. “why didn't he use 🆗?” dunno! we'd been using a lot of hand emojis. 👌🏼 is an ok sign #like it makes sense. it was just a silly mixup. also No i did not invent 👉🏼👌🏼 as a gesture meaning sex. do you live under a rock #3) nonspeaking episodes are a recurring thing in my life and have been since i was born. this is not a quirky one-time thing #it is a pervasive issue that is very frustrating to both myself and the people i am trying to communicate with. in which trying to speak is #extremely distressing and causes very genuine anguish. this post is not me making light of it it's just a funny thing that happened once #it's no different than if i post about a funny thing that happened in conjunction w a physical disability. it's just me talking abt my life #i don't mind character tags tho. those can be entertaining. i don't know what any of you are talking about #Except the ppl who have said this is pego/ryu or wang/xian. those people i understand and respect #if you use it as a writing prompt that's fine but send it to me. i want to see it #aaaand i think that's it. everyday im tempted to turn off rbs on it. it hasn't even been a week

It is a good thing that the BG3 team is attentive and we get updates all the time, but where does it end? If they are going to continue changing stuff about the game per request, what will be there left of what they envisioned in the first place? Especially for character traits and dialogue, like making them kinder and more likeable, just because there were two more people asking for it and they happened to see it. I just don't want to see characters shift into generic ones just because of a need to respond to everyone's ideas

#first it will be a small trait of a character #next we might see ppl sending enough requests to not be totalled by karlach like god intended. y'know? #i wanted to post about this for a while but i felt like it was just a me issue #then last night i had a dream about making a new pt to romance lae'zel and dream friend told me like. dude she is almost robotic atp #and does whatever the player wants. i woke up and that was my last straw #and here we are lmao?? #i feel like that ign interview was a similar issue to this #anyway it isnt that big of an issue or anything. i love that they listen and improve. its just impossible to please everyone #i'd actually want a body type upgrade more than anything but i guess that isnt being requested as much huh #baldur's gate 3 #bg3 #larian critical #me own

I’m so obsessed with how Martin Blackwood casts himself as Pylades/Horatio/Samwise Gamgee, deciding early on that his role within the narrative is to Be There for Jon as he descends into tragedy and that he can’t really affect the narrative otherwise. He doesn’t fully consider the consequences of his actions because he’s so confident that he doesn’t matter enough to impact the events around him. He hurts people because he doesn’t think he has the power to hurt people. His fatal flaw is his absolute conviction in his own unimportance. WHAT a character

#Archetype-savvy-but-complete-lack-of-self-reflection Martin Blackwood is what I’m saying #God I’m so obsessed with him #He’s literally manipulative enough to be a web avatar and he doesn’t even know #the magnus archives #martin blackwood #tma #Please know what I’m talking about with this character archetype #Martin <3

I take back my former Luo Binghe design. Big Buff Binghe is too standard. It's expected. The sillier angle to take is: manifesting his small, needy dog energy into physical form.

#poorly drawn svsss #svsss #luo binghe #shen qingqiu #I haven't been drawing these little guys silly enough and I need to fix that. #is this partially inspired by the crowd of people that whine about fanart not being 'canon accurate'? Yes. #I'm going to make these characters silly and no one can stop me!!! #Canon accurate LB is 188cm tall. PD-SVSSS LB is 3cm tall. He gained 2mm of height after the timeskip. #This little guy is DENSE. He is heavy and hard to pick up and hold. But SQQ will do it. He will find a way. He can have uppies. #He is also *so* good at cuddling. If you even care. #And yes. I want to give him little horns and a tail. They came in after his awakening. #I think I'm gonna keep up the 'svsss demons have horns and little tails' thing because i find it cute <3

What are Black fans looking for in commissions?

I think this is another one of those things that artists may not have considered, so let's open the floor!

To my Black readers: if you are commissioning (or could commission) an art piece of a Black person specifically- maybe yourself, a friend, a cool character, an OC, etc.- I am asking you:

What things do you consider before making the choice to go with that artist?

(And I'll go first in the tags, just so no one feels pressured or alone)

To my nonBlack readers, esp my artists who want to expand their mentality, skill set, and maybe future clientele: I want you to LISTEN to understand. Listen to what Black fans are looking for in terms of care in the depictions of ourselves. Even if it gets uncomfortable, that's something you can challenge yourself on, and even overcome!

#1) if you're an artist thats my friend im trusting that you care enough about me to do right by me #2) YOUR PORTFOLIO! have you drawn Black characters before?? do you do it often? how did the piece look in your style? #3) if you havent drawn us but i like your style- do you at least show an interest in black characters? #am i going to have to risk my emotional health to explain to you why my features matter? #4) i could go to a Black artist to avoid the stress of number 3 #creatingblackcharacters #character design #black characters

Making Incorrect H:SR Quotes Until I Run Out of (hopefully) Original Ideas - Pt. 4 - Nuthin' but Boothill Edition

[Pt. 1] [Pt. 2] [Pt. 3] [Pt. 5] [Pt. 6]

#boothill #honkai star rail #hsr #hsr incorrect quotes #hsr memes #honkai star rail memes #hsr meme #honkai star rail meme #hsr textpost #hsr boothill #boothill hsr #hsr spoilers #hsr 2.2 spoilers #hmmm... don't think it's worth tagging the others in the 9th image. this ain't about them #still unsure abt how to do the alt text for these kinda posts properly but hopefully i'm improving #anyways. don't think i've ever seen heard and typed "cowboy' so many times in one day as i have while making this good lord #i did a bit of digging around and haven't Seen any of these done yet so. here's hoping that's the case! #i'm only ~3/4 of the way through the 2.2 main quest but the need to make these compelled me to put these out Now #i can already tell u that there Will be more of these for Boothill tho bc i'm crazy abt him. probably enough to make another dedicated post #but i'm gonna wait until i'm fully caught up on the plot (and will probably spoil myself for more of his character lore after that as well) #speaking of. i'm gonna go eat mac n' cheese and stay up too late playing through the rest of the main quest #i'm loving it so far. many thoughts head full abt it all but in a good way. hoping for more Boothill moments as we approach the end #he's def not the main character here but he is to Me okay. he is to me. i'm scarfing down every crumb he drops #i'm also suffering from Aventurine withdrawals out here. Argenti mentioning him was Interesting but i need More. Where Is He. #also. was Argenti intentionally not voiced or was it a game issue?? the hell was that. threw me off so hard when i couldn't hear him speak #anyways i'm getting off topic and wasting precious gaming time so i'll be takin' my leave now

been listening to her songs lately!! they're a blessing

#persona #p3p #persona 3 #I really like soul phrase #it really shows how kind her character is... #it's pretty clever how they show how different femc and mc's approach is towards everything that's going on through their songs #not too different in the core probably.. but distinct enough from each other #guess that was the whole point of p3p #she also got one of the best songs in Q2 ;v; #doodle

everything i have learned about this fucking character both through osmosis and under duress has made me feel without any hyperbole completely unhinged. every new piece of information i stumble across through NO fault of my own has me gagging and sobbing and choking and shitting what do you MEAN. WHAT DO YOU MEAN!!!! the fact that I can't run baldur's gate is a mercy to everyone following me right now. thank your lucky stars that you have been spared.

#astarion ancunin #THAT'S HIS LAST NAME??? #i had to fucking google the name of the game that's how osmosis this is. #baldur's gate 3 #astarion #mj art #i used to be like 'enough with the vampire twink on my tl leave me alone' and now i'm like 'what is the vampire twink up to now!' #also its really precious to me that the most popular most beloved character of this game is this proudly very queer man who is #also a survivor of abuse and assault. like that's really... it touches my heart lol.

I think Astarion fits the spooky season well.

#actually any character can fit into a spooky season if you try hard enough #but vampires... especially pretty vampires hit differently xD #Also #Astarion has beautiful aesthetics. #Okay tbh he just has white hair and red eyes but I really like this design on the characters #astarion #bg3 #baldur's gate 3 #my art

end cards please, an epilogue, please, I’m begging

#forgive me I haven’t drawn in months #but I had to act quick #I tried to do it a la dragon age trespasser slides style #the captions are kinda cringe but I didn’t know what to do and I was trying to keep them vague enough to fit the smaller details in #so I chose the major ish options #bg3 #astarion #baldur's gate 3 #bg3 spoilers #spoilers #morights #I’ll clean them up later…. maybe….. fix it….in post….. #doing this made me realise how insanely difficult it is to stuff in a neutral character that represents tav #esp when tav can be so many races with tails or horns or big or small or masculine or feminine #or claws. #larian studios

[until-the-brahmin-come-home]

ultimately inconsequential but big pet peeve of mine when it comes to bethesda fallouts: naming. so many npcs don't have names, or don't have first & last names. every human companion in fnv has a first and last name. a lot of minor characters have first and last names! and a lot of characters have fun names that tell you something about them - ranger ghost, arcade gannon, calamity, fantastic, most of the legion guys tbh. meanwhile you can sleep with cait and danse without ever learning their last/first names.

#yes okay you can headcanon something like 'oh cait disowned her last name' or anything like that #but like. that's not in the text of the game. if that's what they wanted then they needed to have said it in the text of the game. #they didn't even have enough named characters to fill out the major arcana 😔 #also it fucks up my tagging system lol #fallout 3 #fallout 4 #fallout new vegas #fnv
