Tldr I feel like im actively putting so much effort into being the perfect easily digestible trans person especially when talkinf to cis ppl and yes it probably helps them or whatever but its so draining and it makes me miserable

#may be if i didnt do this i would be less likely to impise such a binary on myseld. or maybe this is just how i am #trying v hard to be like the ideal bunary cispassing gender conformint man will have no negative effects on mt brain #me when i lie #however passing/passinf more makes me feel safer and means i can choose when and how to hage these conversations #ugh. new job got to see if i can do stealth #and walkinf around i just think constantly anout how im perceived and jow i look #need to start doing stuoid lifting again i look too scrawny

Karr is probably my BIGGEST FAVE antagonist in Star Trek: Voyager. :) His chemistry with Janeway is MAGICAL to me. 

#we were talking about how likeeeeee #his color palette compared to most of the other hirogen is pretty PALE #likely an implication of his more experienced age but i like to think hes albino maybe :3c #like like like...... #deep dive with me besties #what if he was like a scrawny and really runt-like and sickly youth #and he rose in their little hierarchy based on his wit so hes a little QUIRKY #ALL PREY ARE QUEENS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! #UGH I LOVE HIM HES GOT SUCH OLD SOUL VIBES;;; <33333333 he just wants to save his race from extinction besties;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;; #RIP KING </3 #My Art #Hirogen #Karr #The Killing Game #Amelia Janeway #Star Trek: Voyager #Threshold #AU #the other ones were kinda just meant to serve as comparative palettes to others of his species #its really hard to differentiate sometimes so i wanted to establish it in my head i guess haha

Thinking of an alternate universe where Ortega never had to get modded—I like to think they turned out a lot scrawnier more visible scars—and I like to think that by some weird fate shit, they still meet sidestep.

#how did that happen? #i like to think that sidestep saved them—maybe here they stay a vigilante #friends with a adrenaline junkie #the thought of a scrawny more oily haired Ortega is so endearing #YES THEY HAVE LEG RIGHTS

[shellyseashell]

I literally can’t take any willow criticism seriously there’s so much sexism it’s almost funny

#‘they’re reservesing gender stereotypes and ruining peoples lives’ bro? #‘all girls likes wearing dresses. she looks like a scrawny boy from some angles’ bro have you never met a masc woman #‘it’s Disney of course it’s gay’ BRO??? #‘can’t have a woman lose to a man’ wow you haven’t seen any of these fight scenes have you #‘why is she so arrogant it’s annoying’ and if she was the prince you’d love her #it’s called having a character sweetie #maybe if you watched more than two episodes you would see some things aren’t explained right away #‘they don’t explain why madmartigan left’ GUESS WHAT THEY JUST DID #‘trope after trope’ yeah bud that’s how writing works #i can’t believes I sat through and hour and 40 minute video and now I’m watching another one

Oh actually you know what would be fun. Maybe hellhounds are most of the time fairly average in size and looks and could actually be easily mistaken for normal earthly dogs. But the moment there’s something to attack they suddenly grow HUGE and open four extra eyes and they sprout two extra rows of fangs and their jaws unhinge and drip black slobber and spikes raise along their spines and their tails transmute into snakes and their paws scorch the ground and their eyes glow like hellfire and they bark so loud your ears bleed and then when it’s over they just turn and shrink and go back to looking like a normal dog like nothing even happened.

#They do this the same way a cat bristles I think. It’s the equivalent of bushing up their tails bshsjsgs #Juliet being kind of small and scrawny looking until something spooks her and suddenly she looks like she crawled out of a #nuclear waste facility in a horror game. #Or maybe the scary form is the true form and appearing as a normal dog is more of a deliberate stealth move #Like the way Stitch does it #That probably makes more sense lol. They can still drop the disguise when they’re spooked though that’s very critical #My posts #(Everyone knows Stitch right? My friend Stitch? THEE Experiment 626?) #(Good god that movie is 20 years old……. David Byrne voice I hate the passing of tiiime)

not totally sure what reminded me of this, but—if i had a nickel for every witcher fic describable as 'geralt and jaskier get plunged via magic into a mysterious hall without apparent entrance or exit, where every door opens onto some scenario from their own lives, either remembered or imagined, and by the end of the story they're holding hands…' admittedly i'd still only have ten cents, but it's kind of wild to me that there's more than one!

Opening Doors by chamomiletea

A short fic in which I again engineer a fanciful and unlikely way for a magical mishap to bring Jaskier and Geralt together. Trapped in an underground chamber with four mysterious doors, the two both discover and reveal more than they had intended.

nothing is lost that is born of the heart by inexplicifics

Little fool, the mage had said. If you care for your pet witcher so much, go and find him. And then Jaskier was here, with his pack and his lute and - thank Melitele - a torch, and no idea where Geralt might be, or what sort of condition he’ll be in when Jaskier finds him, or what sort of dangers might be lurking between here and there. And no idea where here is to begin with.

#i feel like this is also a trope that's in other things but like. good luck googling that #like i have a VERY vague memory that there might be something similar to this somewhere in that janny wurts series with all the italics #however i don't think i'll be checking #(i say now. catch me at like 3 AM plowing thru the adventures of ancient blorbo arithon tho.) #(iirc he was heterosexual and it was just like. what r u doing. like if lynn flewelling had made seregil straight.) #(like there's a particular‚ shall we say‚ vanyel-esque model of Fantasy Blorbo that's‚ like‚ contractually required to be queer) #(dark long hair‚ scrawny‚ Sad Wet Cat of a man‚ he's Got Trauma‚ you all know the type i mean) #(but apparently ms. wurts hadn't read the contract so her hero had this like. star-crossed Heterosexual Love instead) #(with like. a priestess or sth?? idk. even at the time i was like 'right okay so. enemies-to-lovers with the cousin-nemesis‚ go') #anyway. did not realize so much detail abt this series was still in my brain-attic #does make you wonder if holmes was onto something tbqh #'if only i knew less abt misty lackey maybe i'd have had more room for german vocab…' #anyway uh. these tags have really veered off-course here huh #bookblogging #fannish things

[queer-chnospinci]

Not to be annoying on main but WHAT does this author think what a longsword is??? Or like a sword in general

#hes like: the longsword goes into your right hand and the small(er) sword goes into the left hand #girlie #how many hands do you have #i may be really wrong about this but i think a longsword is inherently two handed #Also!!! the small sword is apparently a stabbing weapon #i dont understand #sure you can stab with a weapon it does have a tip to do that but the defining feature of a sword is that the entire blade is sharp #and that you can CUT with both sides #get a rapier or something if you want a stabbing weapon #OR A DAGGER #which would make much more fucking sense #especially in combination with a longsword and in close combat #like?????????? #(i could be wrong but i dont think i am) #it makes me unreasonably angery #like maybe you can do the longsword with one hand thing but not if youre a scrawny 15 year old

[torchiiko]

will ralseis clothes fit the spamton plush even a little bit bc lemme tell you if i cant put him in ralseis little butler outfit i will be quite sad

semi related thought are they taking so long to come out bc voicebox naturally means longer production time Or are they making an unfathomable amount in preparation

#deltarune #spamton #spamton plush #i at least want the bowtie to fit #maybe if i loop it like a rubber band... #shoes definitely arent fitting his feet are way too tiny and same for the pants too i think. scrawny little guy #also yeah idk anything about plush manufacturing and surely the voiceboxes would complicate things a bit more #but also the funpak which is on par with goodie bags for a kids bday party sold out in minutes So #nerd time #torch chatter

we've found it folks: mcmansion heaven

Hello everyone. It is my pleasure to bring you the greatest house I have ever seen. The house of a true visionary. A real ad-hocist. A genuine pioneer of fenestration. This house is in Alabama. It was built in 1980 and costs around $5 million. It is worth every penny. Perhaps more.

Now, I know what you're thinking: "Come on, Kate, that's a little kooky, but certainly it's not McMansion Heaven. This is very much a house in the earthly realm. Purgatory. McMansion Purgatory." Well, let me now play Beatrice to your Dante, young Pilgrim. Welcome. Welcome, welcome, welcome.

It is rare to find a house that has everything. A house that wills itself into Postmodernism yet remains unable to let go of the kookiest moments of the prior zeitgeist, the Bruce Goffs and Earthships, the commune houses built from car windshields, the seventies moments of psychedelic hippie fracture. It is everything. It has everything. It is theme park, it is High Tech. It is Renaissance (in the San Antonio Riverwalk sense of the word.) It is medieval. It is maybe the greatest pastiche to sucker itself to the side of a mountain, perilously overlooking a large body of water. Look at it. Just look.

The inside is white. This makes it dreamlike, almost benevolent. It is bright because this is McMansion Heaven and Gray is for McMansion Hell. There is an overbearing sheen of 80s optimism. In this house, the credit default swap has not yet been invented, but could be.

It takes a lot for me to drop the cocaine word because I think it's a cheap joke. But there's something about this example that makes it plausible, not in a derogatory way, but in a liberatory one, a sensuous one. Someone created this house to have a particular experience, a particular feeling. It possesses an element of true fantasy, the thematic. Its rooms are not meant to be one cohesive composition, but rather a series of scenes, of vastly different spatial moments, compressed, expanded, bright, close.

And then there's this kitchen for some reason. Or so you think. Everything the interior design tries to hide, namely how unceasingly peculiar the house is, it is not entirely able to because the choices made here remain decadent, indulgent, albeit in a more familiar way.

Rare is it to discover an interior wherein one truly must wear sunglasses. The environment created in service to transparency has to somewhat prevent the elements from penetrating too deep while retaining their desirable qualities. I don't think an architect designed this house. An architect would have had access to specifically engineered products for this purpose. Whoever built this house had certain access to architectural catalogues but not those used in the highest end or most structurally complex projects. The customization here lies in the assemblage of materials and in doing so stretches them to the height of their imaginative capacity. To borrow from Charles Jencks, ad-hoc is a perfect description. It is an architecture of availability and of adventure.

A small interlude. We are outside. There is no rear exterior view of this house because it would be impossible to get one from the scrawny lawn that lies at its depths. This space is intended to serve the same purpose, which is to look upon the house itself as much as gaze from the house to the world beyond.

Living in a city, I often think about exhibitionism. Living in a city is inherently exhibitionist. A house is a permeable visible surface; it is entirely possible that someone will catch a glimpse of me they're not supposed to when I rush to the living room in only a t-shirt to turn out the light before bed. But this is a space that is only exhibitionist in the sense that it is an architecture of exposure, and yet this exposure would not be possible without the protection of the site, of the distance from every other pair of eyes. In this respect, a double freedom is secured. The window intimates the potential of seeing. But no one sees.

At the heart of this house lies a strange mix of concepts. Postmodern classicist columns of the Disney World set. The unpolished edge of the vernacular. There is also an organicist bent to the whole thing, something more Goff than Gaudí, and here we see some of the house's most organic forms, the monolith- or shell-like vanity mixed with the luminous artifice of mirrors and white. A backlit cave, primitive and performative at the same time, which is, in essence, the dialectic of the luxury bathroom.

And yet our McMansion Heaven is still a McMansion. It is still an accumulation of deliberate signifiers of wealth, very much a construction with the secondary purpose of invoking envy, a palatial residence designed without much cohesion. The presence of golf, of wood, of masculine and patriarchal symbolism with an undercurrent of luxury drives that point home. The McMansion can aspire to an art form, but there are still many levels to ascend before one gets to where God's sitting.

Someone liked an old post I made about Littlecloud on my main so I doodled LittleCinder while watching Pokemon

#doodles #childhood ship tbh…. its so cute #taking the opportunity to ramble abt razorverse littlecloud. i dont think he’ll be keeping that name cause while i love it and its cute #idk if the cloud suffix fits my design of him. hes a scrawny thin furred big eyed shaking thing #so… might name him littletwig or littlefrog or maybe even littlestorm #(to like. give him a ‘’powerful’’ name like hes a small storm but will still cause damage?) #his suffix has to be just as cute and silly is the important bit #also hes brokenstars son who he never acknowledges. probably in the same litter as hopekit and wishkit but idk #probably not cause he wouldnt fit the naming scheme? can see broken siring multiple litters #trying to produce more child soldiers #hope/wish are probably born after hes exiled #i wanna plot out who’s a broken baby and who isnt cause those 3 are the only ones ive figured out and hes gotta have more than that #give em like a group where they all bond together closely cause of what happened #razorverse #ig
