#because it's glorious

[embraceyourdestiny]

to any americans who feel "paralyzed" and "dont know what to do" to help with gaza:

reading a fucking book. i beg of you.

in a time of knowledge suppression is it your duty to arm yourself with knowledge.

read about americas occupations in the middle east.

read about 9/11 from outside of america and see how they inflicted senseless harm and violence to countless amounts of people and have been suppressing your rights for the past 2 fucking decades.

read about any of the countless wars from the past 30 years. especially from a civilian's. and the victims and survivors' perspective. listen to the horror stories and do not plug your fucking ears as to what your country is doing.

and read about fucking gaza and palestine and keep up with what is happening no matter how "sad" or "uncountable" you might get.

dont look away from this.

you dont have the right to be comfortable during countless active genocides.

if you're knowledgeable, you're powerful, and our current state doesnt fucking want that.

you have the power to change things if you open your eyes and scream to the world.

wake the fuck up.

Edit: please check the reblogs there are readings and ways to help

#og #truly if youre not about it your against it and i dont fuck with you because you're complacent #wake the fuck up #we're all responsible and dont you dare say you're not #americans need to stop living in the world with their eyes closed and their ears covered #look at what your fucking 'glorious country' is doing to people #everyone should be against america no fucking exceptions because america is violent and evil and needs to be stopped #then read about what america has done to the natives of their land #radicalize yourself #decolonize your mind #free palestine #land back #palestine will be free #theres too many fucking movements of just the past couple years all happening at once to act like the world is fucking fine #we are in a human rights CRISIS #WAKE THE FUCK UP PLEASE

Okay okay, listen, Night Watch is an absolute masterpiece of storytelling. It’s done so well I want to scream. Not only do we, the readers, know that the revolution will end in tears, the protagonist of the story knows it too! Vimes goes into this with the exact same expectations as the reader of here we go, we know we’re in a tragedy, we’re know we’re doomed by the narrative. AND YET, AND YET as the story goes on, you start to hope that maybe, just maybe, something will be different this time.  Even Vimes starts to entertain the idea, but every time this happens, you get reminded (by the History Monks) that No. This is only going to go one way. This. is. a. Tragedy.  BUT STILL. These are good people and look, some things have gone better this time, maybe it’s enough? Vimes always wins in the end, doesn’t he? And so you HOPE and by hoping, you wilfully forget what you’ve been told again and again, that this is a tragedy.  AND THEN THEY GET SO CLOSE. SO FREAKING CLOSE that when it all goes wrong you feel surprised, even though you were told from the very beginning how it was going to go. It’s insane. It’s Terry Pratchett at his finest. Its’s a goddammed masterpiece.

#I've read this book at least 4 times and it still GETS ME every damn time because hope is the thing with feathers #Its my favourite discworld book #the glorious 25th of may #Night Watch #spoiler alert #gnu terry pratchett #discworld

online buddy of mine (born in 2004) said “i strongly suspect the vast majority of ‘I'll always remember where I was on 9/11’ stories are not true. I simply don't believe that 75% of people were watching the news live at 8:45 in the morning on a Tuesday when the strangest thing happened.” and like. okay. we can talk about the aftermath in the 22 years since 9/11 and the horrific and evil jingoism that ruined countless lives in decades-long wars all we want. but i cannot overstate enough that 1) we still very much had a monoculture in 2001. most americans would watch either the today show or GMA. 2) as soon as that first plane hit every news station in the country was covering it. schools and businesses and break rooms turned on every tv. every radio. anything that had the ability to broadcast the news. (smartphones weren’t a thing. cell phones and the internet existed but they were new and fragile. unreliable. your best bet was still to sit there and watch. or listen.) and we all sat there and watched the second plane hit and the pentagon hit and the towers collapse and flight 93. so, yes: basically everyone who was alive and old enough to form lasting memories in 2001 remembers that day and the coverage. even people who weren’t near a tv or radio in real time remember where they were and what they were doing when they heard the news. they probably even remember the reason why they didn’t hear about it in real time. i was 5 years old in my first week of first grade and i remember it. it was like. the biggest thing to happen in this country since fucking. pearl harbor. bigger. there’s no need to downplay that.

#personally: my school intentionally kept us in the dark and didn’t dismiss us so i didn’t find out until i got home #but we all knew something was up because it was a glorious september tuesday and they cancelled recess to keep us inside #and all of the teachers looked shaken and some kids were picked up by their parents. #i still remember the look on the face of the mom of one of my classmates. we would later find out that her dad (my friend’s grandpa) died. #but they didn’t tell us what was going on and i think they made the right choice. #didn’t want to traumatize thousands children more than necessary. i think they were right. #i still remember exactly where i was and how my parents told us though #and i remember all of the coverage after. all of it.

Shout out to Loudspeaker's weird original design. In unloving memory.

#the silly little fringe flip at the front was the best accidental design change I ever made #I think i drew him with the heterochromatic eyes like. Once. And then immediately forgot about it and just gave him matching eyes #and the mask I clearly forgot about at some point #which is probably good because it covered his glorious moustache #can't remember who originally sent the ask that was like 'hey what would your villain design for mic be' #but thanks for whatever this turned into now I can't listen to a multitude of songs without thinking of Loudspeaker #bnha #villain!mic #hizashi yamada #loudspeaker au #mha #present mic #redraw #if someone says 'the left was better' I'm gonna.. probably do nothing. Maybe pull this face :(

[wafflesex]

Keep in mind: it isn't Azul having fun that pisses Floyd off.

It's Azul having fun WITHOUT HIM.

#twisted wonderland #twst #floyd leech #azul ashengrotto #glorious masquerade #spoilers. #twst spoilers #he likes to be included #he sticks with azul BECAUSE AZUL IS FUN #the tweels followed him on land because he's FUN #now here azul goes getting to experience a new fun land thing without them #it IS messed up floyd I AGREE

WIP - this time with more pocket charcaters in the background!

(Note to self: whenever I'll get to him, Cody will get the Mando treatment at best because I'm still big mad that he has no flowing fabric on him and that really trips up my sketching process. I'm still undecided about Wolffe though, since he's got his kama which is nice, but on the other hand he also has that facial hair situation going on in Rebels that's grown on me far less than Rex's beard...)

The rest of the Mandalorian Star Wars meets Hades AU project is here

#wip #captain rex #my art #hades au #tcw fanart #there is a very good reason why Rex is placed where he is I swear and I'll explain it when I finish him! #In the meantime I came up with 3 different dialogue options in that glorious liminal space between sleep and wakefulness #and so I naturally forgot all of them :'( #so I might take quite a while to finish him. It's always the dialogue that takes forever #but also because I'll need to match him with Boba... and I'd made some decisions a year ago let me tell you

[animentality]

I know everyone wants stories with happy endings, and they all hate when the main characters die, and insist well what's the point of the story then, it didn't matter at all! they died!

but.

I don't know. do the stories of those who die at the end not matter at all?

because if that's the case, I have news about the stories told by everyone who has ever lived in this world.

we all die at the end. we are all doomed by the narrative.

but our stories still matter.

#writing #writers on tumblr #writerscommunity #listen it can be done well it can be done poorly #but i dont get this hatred of characters dying at the end and everyone not getting their happy ending #its not about realism #its about what the author is trying to say #some characters die because they need to die #because it fulfills their character arc it enhances it #it makes a difference #and there is catharsis in understanding that sometimes people die for a good cause for a glorious purpose #we all die #isnt there relief in seeing a story where our special friends die but it mattered in the end and death was something meaningful #if it was embraced with dignity #am i making any sense #i just know my own death wont matter #i like following stories where the mc dies but #it meant something the way mine will not #and the vast majority of people do not die for a good cause or with purpose #and those who do are heroes in our reality #but why are they so reviled in fiction #let your characters deaths mean something
