#and i'm enjoying the novelty

Watching Drácula after Dracula is SO WEIRD

It's the same set, the same basic script with some minor tweaks, but all the angles are different, the blocking is different, some of the minor details vary in juuust enough ways to make it thrillingly off-putting

It's so NEAT

#like in one scene a possum? is lurking to the right of an old barrel in the english version #but it skitters around on top of it and jumps off in the spanish #renfield walks in turns around and then dracula addresses him from the top of the staircase in the english version #in the spanish version renfield makes it up the steps before they begin to talk and isn't surprised by dracula #the woman who gives him the cross is much more melodramatic in english #it's just a lot of little things where it's almost but not quite the same #and i'm enjoying the novelty #the conversation at the table is entirely different as is how he gets cut #THAT is the most stark change so far

moodboard for when you don't know fuck shit

#tw: kelly #fate #fate samurai remnant #started playing the game last week and i'm enjoying it but i haven't really had the time to get Into it #theyber is delightful no notes #it's funny how about 60% of the game seems to be 'sit down we are having a japanese history lesson RIGHT NOW' not complaining #i went to tokyo briefly last year and the novelty of seeing environments i've been in but in the 1600s is pretty cool like soyjak.jpg

realized i very much Do Not Vibe with the semi-ironic (and getting less ironic every day) infantilizing hyper-femininity that a lot of people use online at the moment. more power to you if you find it fun but personally i am not any kind of "girly" beverage or otherwise, i am an adult woman.

#i'm also 5'2'' so being expected to talk about myself like i'm a bubblegum pop disney channel character is really not a fun novelty #if i had missed out on the transcendental joy of being 12 and walking into the justice store in the mall for the first time #i could see retroactively enjoying this now #but anyway do not refer to me this way thank u #ignore me #wankity wank

I am now annoyingly aware of why this yarn was on sale.

#IT IS SOFT AND PRETTY BUT GOD IS THIS BITCH HARD TO WORK WITH #It's also been A While (re: since November 30th) since I've crocheted #So my hand is cramping like a motherfucker #But I must crochet these novelty dicks for my best friend's bachelorette party! #I only have to do 5 so that's helpfu #I bought buttons for eyes and lips and I found actual lip buttons #These dicks are also light blue #This is gonna be so stupid I'm already enjoying myself #The next 3 weeks will be writing fic surviving the last 9 days of school and crocheting dicks #crochet dick adventure

oh yeah i'm finally finishing off detective pikachu returns rn bc i got. very bored of it when i started it months ago and was planning to trade it in. but actually, turns out i stopped right where it started getting (relatively) better, i'm enjoying myself with it again

#clai speaks #still not really that good of a game but i'm a 21 year old playing a mystery game for kids yknow i cant judge it too harshly #(something a lot of pkmn fans could learn to take into account. them making the main games ''easier'' is not the issue lmao) #its just that when i played the first detective pikachu it didnt feel like as much of a slog as this one? #returns tends to repeat itself and beat around the bush a Lot more. i assume to make sure kids were understanding the plot tho #i might have enjoyed the game as a whole a lot more if i wasnt. yknow. Twenty when i bought it HDJBFHF #i'm still gonna trade it in i dont see myself ever replaying this or the original but at least i dont think it was a waste of my time #you can slap the pkmn label on anything and i'll derive Some sort of enjoyment from it HEJBFHF #overall i still like detective pikachu a lot :) its no black and white or explorers of sky but yknow its a fun little novelty

one of these days my interests will probably start branching out but know that bee em cee will forever be there at the back of my mind

#i did not expect to be here for this long i'm gonna hit the two year anniversary in a couple months #honestly i just think of the characters as my ocs at this point #however the novelty is definitely wearing out so ​i wanna try getting into other stuff #not sure how successful it'll be but we'll see. #cuz as you can probably tell from the contents of my blog there's a LOT of stuff i enjoy #but i only feel compelled to REALLY play around with bmc because fundamentally it's. not a masterpiece #don't get me wrong it's great but there's a lot of room for interpretation and improvement #stuff that's TOO good intimidates me. i can't bring myself to touch it because i will never get to its level #bmc on the other hand it's fun it's casual i can do whatever i want with it #i think i've done pretty much everything i wanted to do with it though that's the problem #i most likely will be coming back to it but i'm not feeling it at the moment

stub nibs are so fun

#got my first 1.1 stub. i enjoy the novelty #i write way too small to use it regularly but if i'm going to write letters and such it's a lot of fun! #just used it w colorverse brunch date and i really enjoy it #honey talks fps #🍯.txt

[wednesdaysky]

tfw you have so many fics subscribed to on AO3 that when update notifications come in you have to skim the entire fic to even remember what the heck this one was about before you can read it

#fandom #i'm just enjoying the novelty of being in a fandom where the pace of updates isn't 'maybe there will be smth new this month if i'm lucky'

[fairytalesandfandoms]

I got a huge fancy monitor from work and the screen is just a blown-up version of my laptop screen

so now I have GIANT TUMBLR

#stuff in my life #i'm sure the novelty will wear off soon #but for now i'm just enjoying the fun #can't wait to watch some netflix on this

[lonepower]

wish us luck

#it's supposed to be the worst around 5 but right now I'm enjoying the novelty of a summer storm #chi's adventures in real life

speaking of your coming of age movie that never happens & your narrative non-narratives, shoutout to the arcs that’d be supposedly “worse” lmfao like posts about people-pleasers being like “i’m in my villain era” when it’s just consciously prioritizing themselves at all / noting when boundaries for their own wellbeing are being trampled, and the like. wherein i’m like, well i like talking to people i suppose, i can do the hours of monologue at a wall for one mode, got chatterbox mode, funny guy theatrical mode, etc, but in actuality also, i do not like talking to people lmao. the “yeah, that’s me” movie ending with another voiceover while upbeat music plays & you’re cheerfully walking along in 0.75x speed through some picturesque arena filled with socializing people like =) putting on headphones, turning up the volume, ignoring everyone, dodging people according to the berth one wants to maintain,

#i mean in person i like to be somewhere Parallel to other ppl; but there By Myself technically lol #i also am down for / enjoy spontaneous fleeting interactions w/randos but ofc only the actually good ones; which can sure be rare #and naturally Online interactions have a lot more flexibility than [not having that option] but even then. #like on just one point: being in a ''fandom'' like no thanks at all ever lol even when it comes to relatively niche things #j'etadore quantent being Just Me Posting To Myself. i absolutely do not want to talk to anybody about winston billions. #posts are scrolls i've nailed to a door to be perused if someone wants. take it or leave it; i've given it & left #meanwhile Not In Person chats aren't even enough lol like; need more Delay than a live chat; also too much to say just like irl anyways #gotta be down for short essays at w/e weird pacing & inadvertent caginess abt what ig other ppl would find matter of factly easy to share #i.e. like What Are You Doing? type ye olde facebook status prompt material. well that's a secret / weird / not entertaining enough isn't it #not like i think oh scoff i Should be popular likable & beloved lmfao like no ofc i Know i'm not gonna come off like that. l'autistique. #to be thusly is to be generally considered unlikable / disliked. i probably don't like interacting w/an nt rando too much either. #& w/the power of [adhd] it's like yeah sure i can be the chatty Fun But Annoying person lmfao But. rather than really being begrudgingly #tolerated until ppl are just more used to you / forgive the annoyances it's like no it's just the Annoying part lol beyond that it's like #well you're also somehow still too weird & quiet so worst of both worlds right. And ofc i have Other Traits aren't just for everyone. #some classic easy to embrace shit like bit of a hothead; argumentative; opinionated; stubborn; spontaneous; a hater; cagey....lmao #much of that For Fun but the [autistic Friendly] social cues don't get read that way. plus i Can be unfriendly too ofc lmao. get outta here #like a friend group seems charming & adorably heartwarming in theory until it's like oh god but drawing on all relevant experiences?? No #the third or fourth or nth wheel falling behind on the narrow sidewalk / talked over / finding a chair on the end & ppl dont notice ur here #lowering expectations even for exchanges that Do happen. ppl can enjoy the novelty of a lengthy exchange for like; a day #on the other side of that if what's initiated is like; Brief General messages i'm like oh god lmfao now Eye can't keep up w/this style #beyond that spontaneous shit is like oh god masking. oh god double empathy misinterpretations & being treated horribly b/c of it. #Recognizing & Respecting my actual experiences rather than hypothetical ideals like no i'm Not failing by Not putting myself in more damn #situations lmfao....if i stumble into good ones then great lol. sure have done that & i don't discount the Value therein at all #just sure like [points to the wisdom of e.g. autistic ppl talking abt having to be lonely but at the gain of looking out for / appreciating #themself] like Being ''Unlikable'' or having friends(tm) but not Really / the treatment is shit / you're having to mask a ton anyways... #sure can recall experiences like idk. ppl ''being nice'' & whether on purpose or not it's like actually I'm In Hell I'm In Hell lmfao #and then even if it's not on purpose it's like ah i can't actually talk to them abt it & that's not a great endorsement for the dynamic huh #or just noting like i'm duly accepted to be on the sidelines but what am i doing wrong lmao sweating How To Earn proper Normal participation #lot of anxiety & blaming oneself & it turns out like nah can't excise the Fault of autistic / adhd / cpstdness & you're fine actually #that was ye olde times more so but it's gradual & still fairly recent being like Oh Right. more accurate ideas re: Talking To Ppl At All....

yes i publicly hate dragon age: inquisition. yes i redownloaded it today. yes i'm going to replay it

#it's because baldur's gate 3 is out and i cant fucking play it on my shitty laptop (and also i'm supposed to be “”“saving money”“”) #also because there's a lot of news on dreadwolf. it's all bad news. but it's news #me.txt #negative #i play games #??? #yes i'm going to romance solas. #... maybe if i indulge myself and romance josie again with a hot qunari i'll be fine #maybe the only reason i got through dai in my first run is because i got so distracted by how hot my qunari quizzy was? #... no it's almost definitely the novelty. although i bet the hotness HELPED #how hot can i make this egg fucking waif of an elf #i'm gonna make her SO hot and then i'll be too distracted to be annoyed at the game which isn't a bad game really #i just don't like the concept. the main idea. which is ... bad... if you want to enjoy game

Aubree just bought a pipe of smoke monsters, because she's been wanting a new pipe anyway and Justin said the town we were in would probably have common magic items if we wanted anything in particular so I asked for them to have one of those please, but now I can't decide whether, design-wise, it should look like something with Aubree Vibes that she would usually be inclined to pick out and use or whether it should look, you know, like a novelty magic item crafted by an elf

#because if it's the former it should be a short and fairly simple travel pipe #and if it's the latter it should be an elegant churchwarden carved to look like a dragon or something #like-- it didn't exist until I asked the DM if I could have one so it can look like however I want #but I can't DECIDE #I've been meaning for aubree to get a new pipe for awhile just cause I figure it's an indulgence she enjoys occasionally #but also the. reason she ended up getting one when she did turns out to be 'well I'm an asshole drunk so better cope some other way' :') #so in theory it ought to be practical for 'pulling out and lighting just whenever and pretty often' which a very long pipe sort of isn't #if it's TOO cumbersome would she have been able to be salesman'd into it at all... being won over by a cool novelty only goes so far #PERSONALLY I love a churchwarden but a good stout pipe also has its charms #and also yanno. fits in a vest pocket or a belt pouch #about me #my OCs #aubree

Boy getting to the true ending while leaving it up to random chance sure feels like something with only a 6,6% chance of success and that's not factoring in how the safe end has the same chance and is required so if I get the coffin end it'll take forever to get back to it 😭

#I ran these numbers last year before I even thought I'd get a chance to buy the game and still. did this to myself #it is a good excuse to not be done with the novelty of the ds version too quickly though I'm still enjoying myself even if at this pace #but damn #Void fala aí #it's about to be my ninth loop... #I'm commited to the bit far too much at this point

[lestatlioncunt]

ok fine i'll bite

#rena.txt #if aartyom wins i'll be upset but if clavicusvine wins my heart will break. #i'm an animal of habit but i also really enjoy novelty. i'm literally so tormented can't you see #actually tho..dropping harkaer maybe..hm. real question is: is clavicusvine really worth it? it makes me laugh idk akfjskf #also for those that don't know harkaer is my oc inspo sideblog so changing the url there..wouldn't be as tragic as changing my main #u know what i'll put my fate in your hands and let you all decide for me PROMISE

For some reason YouTube is letting me do polls now so hey, why not vote about which kinds of speed draw videos you like more

#Not that it's gonna make much of a difference until all the Requestobers are posted anyway but hey! After that! #It's just a two-choice preference about sketches - do you like seeing the entire process vs. skipping right to refining the sketch #I haven't voted so quick go vote before I influence your decision by telling you which one I like - #I think it's easier to make a scratch sketch on paper first which obviously can't be screen-recorded lol #I think it makes for a more consistent final product since it makes sure that I've got /some/thing down to go off of #But I understand wanting to see the process from start to finish I also really enjoy watching sketches come from nothing #So really just vote for whichever you like more lol - consistency vs. novelty (I guess?? Lol) #Also thinking about doing another stream once I'm fully recovered and find a good space to draw for a while #I've built up a bunch of scratch doodles that I'd like to do Something with sometime soon #Might not be til the new year but I'm planning it hopefully sooner than later! #It's just me hoping I'm recovered and settled sooner than later lol
