Fun Fact
Kazakhstan’s Minister of Communications and Informatics has blocked the Tumblr site because it contained 60 sites of terrorism, extremism, and pornography in 2015.
Me, fighting tooth and nail against my irl friends who are sw*fties: yeah well, maybe I want my sad girl music to have a 3 minute guitar solo and distorted audio after the second verse of vaguely gay lyrics have you considered that ?!
Just wanted an excuse to listen to music on repeat but didn’t really have anything to draw, so I experimented with this inky style again until I got this :) Piccolo standing on a cliff with Korin’s Tower in the back, and lightning in the sky. Time lapse above, if you want to watch my brain stutter and stop and try to figure out what this would eventually turn into (even I didn’t know!) XD

book i absolutely hate?
i put down books i can see i won't like pretty quickly so i don't really have a rant locked and loaded for this one. i can go on and on about whole genres as a whole though because i can tell they're just not worth the paper they're printed on. the shelves and shelves of mediocre fifth-grade level fiction being marketed to grown ass adults. everything by joel osteen. [vomits] romance novels
book that first got me interested in reading?
i've been reading ever since i can remember but the first 'real' book i can recall reading is the count of monte cristo by alexandre dumas, truly fantastic classic (i'm currently in a reread with the improvised book club right now actually!)
i was also a redwall kid growing up of course, and also enjoyed the deptford histories by robin jarvis and gregor the overlander by suzanne collins. lots of anthropomorphic animals killing eachother in gruesome ways for some reason. i will forever be smug about reading suzanne collins before the hunger games got big though and tbh gregor was much better
did i actually read all the books required in school/did i start out that way?
i was homeschooled so required reading was mostly public library summer reading programs, but yeah i've mostly always been like that. they couldn't stop me really
tell you about my top (any number i want) favorite books?
opening a can of worms here, don't say i didn't warn you. it's no secret i'm a sci-fi guy so top of my list is always blindsight and echopraxia by peter watts. that shit changed me for real. wyrms by orson scott card is another one that, though fiction, contains a lot of very interesting thoughts. (standard 'card is a weird dude' disclaimer here.) i recently read jorge luis borges' short fiction, some very well done and intriguing concepts there. philip k. dick is a long time favorite of mine, the martian time-slip is particularly good as well as his dozens of short stories. and finally i will not shut up about gödel escher bach, i'm still wading through it but it's fantastically written, a lot of fun to read and i can already tell it's going to leave a mark
Watched the One Piece Film Z dub and here are my thoughts
It is SO disorienting as an American to hear people say "z" as "zed" the whole movie
Zed's voice actor was fantastic I loved the vaguely southern accent he had
Kuzan was SOOOO sexy in this one it may just be my personal bias cause I LOVE a guy that left the service that he committed terrible things in and is now adrift trying to find his way in the world and do the right thing. Such a shame he ⬛⬛⬛⬛⬛⬛(redacted for manga spoilers)⬛⬛⬛⬛⬛⬛
"Ocean Guide" is the best one piece song and the way it was incorporated throughout the movie was fantastic
The whole strawhat crew (except chopper) was kinda just an add on to this one I wasn't particularly interested in their antics. The cherry blossom party outfits were cute though
url song title thing because @orjizzy tagged me. You really went "I don't know any Z songs" and then tagged me lol.
