#holy shit this animation is so cool

Just learned that tadpoles with injured tails sometimes regenerate them with extra legs

So that's neat.

#the more you know #frogs #science #animals #zoology #developmental biology #holy shit #this is called a homeotic transformation #and I think I have only really heard about them in fruitflies #so seeing it in frogs really fucked me up #how incredibly cool #I always thought the creatures from Pandora could not exist in vertebrates #because homeotic transformations in the *middle* of the trunk were basically impossible to achieve in a survivable manner #but it had not occurred to me that you could just… add more to the end #this changes everything

the dream smp journey: attempting to make the lore of the dream smp more accessible.

so back when i first wanted to get into the dream smp i had absolutely no idea where to start. i asked some people and they told me pretty much “look up dream smp + [insert youtuber name] and start there” and so i did, but i quickly came to realize how much i was missing from the story by not seeing all the different points of view.

so i decided to make my own playlist.

it was just for myself at first, but as i got more obsessed with the story, i also gave the link to some friends of mine so they could have the full experience, and they loved it. so i kept updating it.

my goal was to try and make a capsule of the entirety of the lore on the dream smp across almost every single POV, because while i do appreciate those who make recap videos, they always miss something and it’s usually with peoples’ POV who aren’t considered to be “main characters” which sucks because one of my favorite things about the dream smp was how everyone was their own main character with their own individual storyline you could get invested in.

i’ve seen every single video in the playlist, and did my absolute best to discern what should be included and what didn’t need to be. 

for instance, while i personally enjoyed streams where they’d just goof off, this is a lore-centric playist so i didn’t include all of them unless one of the jokes or such gets mentioned/becomes important later on. or if there is a lore event happening but two people have almost identical streams to one another then i decided between the two of them which one to keep. or if the cc themself made an edited version of their experience, i would decide whether to go with that or keep the original vod

it’s far from perfect. i tried to keep up with it as long as i could I STILL HAVE VIDEOS IN MY WATCH LATER THAT I PLANNED TO ADD but simply put while the dream smp storyline got longer and longer it became harder to keep up with. i watched pretty much all the streams when they happened but failed to update the playlist accordingly so right now it has almost everything up until ”Hitting on 16.”

i always wanted to finish it before i posted it, but i’ve been seeing people talk about how they miss the experience of watching the dream smp and while i obviously can’t provide the full interactive experience that the dream smp offered as it came out, i knew i couldn’t just keep this in my back pocket and thought i could at least offer a good chunk of the experience for you guys to still be able to keep!

here’s the playlist, spanning over 300 videos.

there’s also a semi-canon playlist (not nearly as thorough) for events that get mentioned by the cc’s a lot or are just cool to have and i wanted to include them somewhere so here it is also!!

to go along with it i also made a masterpost (can you tell i love making lists) which is what every single video on the playlist is supposed to be (and was last i checked, but videos get taken down every so often so there might be a couple missing here and there).

i hope to update this one day and have it fully finished, but with my schedule (full-time college student babyyyy) and simply the hundreds of hours of content i’d need to sift through it just seems impossible (and frankly just really intimidating) to challenge alone right now. so i also wanted to give this to the community to maybe be able to do what i couldn’t!

my hope with this is that if someone in a year or two (or whenever really) is interested in the dream smp they won’t have to sit through recap videos and instead can watch the real thing in a single playlist connected to the doc. my dream is for the masterpost and the playlist to go hand-in-hand, being like a guide people can follow that would also link to other moments and lore that is saved but just not avaliable on youtube, so we don’t have all these moments just lost to time.

i want to make this collaborative, i’m hoping this will maybe spark others to share what videos/moments they have saved and stored with each other for the dream smp and maybe together we could complete this thing somehow!! make the playlist and masterpost i dreamed of (the one right now is scuffed, but at least it’s something). the dream smp is one of my absolute favorite pieces of media out there and i want to share this with people but (as you can probably tell) i have no idea what i’m doing!! any step to help make the story more readily accessible is a good one, though!

i know i’ve missed things but i’ve done my best. and while not the perfectly polished thing i hoped it would be when i sent it out to the world maybe it could be a good building block for the community to use. so please share this!! reblog it!! all that jazz!! i want this to be for everyone!!

anyways, this is a long post. but the whole reason i got into the dream smp in the first place was because of the awesome fan content i saw and this crazy and creative community and i want to be able to give back, if i can.

#dream smp #the dream smp journey #dream smp lore #mcyt #tommyinnit #jack manifold #c!tommy #c!jack #(sorry jack and tommy gotta use you to cross-tag) #(is it even crosstagging if they're IN the playlist?.... lot to think about) #i really wanted to add more to this #my goal was to catch up on all the videos and then go back and transcribe each one (or link pre-existing transcriptions) #and then add content warnings if need be #i had this idea too where say you just finished up the nov.16th lore after that it would be cool to link you to sad-ist's animation!! #just things like that! i had a lot of things i was thinking about #anyways thanks for reading my c!jack analysis posts throughout all this time now you may have my massive lore bank i've been holding onto #cheers!!! #rambling rocks #like.. holy shit #will this even turn into anything? i don't know. i hope so #i want to come back to this and give it the TLC it deserves #but until i find the time + motivation for that i didn't want to keep it just to myself #i just hope this is a good step towards making the dream smp story more accessible to people #pebble post

dragons rising really went "so what if we fucking nail every character and make every character fucking rule and introduce a bunch of new characters and oh here's kai just getting the best characterization in years/fucking ever. like man kai deserves some time so let's just make him the best. here's all the depth to kai that you've been imagining for the past decade. just for you" and then i'm supposed to be normal about it

also the fact that he made this big sacrifice, telling bonsel to close the portal, and nobody even gets to know he willingly sacrificed himself this time. cuz they couldn't hear him.

oh and here's a kai and nya kid flashback go cry about it

last season we had a kid lloyd flashback. any bets on kid jay, cole, or newly built zane flashbacks?

#ninjago dragons rising #dragons rising spoilers #ninjago spoilers #ninjago dragons rising spoilers #ninjago masters of spinjitzu #cole was great this season #so was zane #and arin and sora had cool arcs #but holy shit kai #he has been consistently stealing the show this season #that scene with wyldfyre #all the scenes with wyldfyre #the fact that he referenced his time mourning nya #how he is still profoundly stupid and weird and cringe and lame #but also so fuckin cool and loving and caring about everyone #he loves his family so much #he's really good at what he does! #this isn't the kai that falls apart with anger #this is the kai that still gets fucking angry and frustrated #but then listens to his family and deals with it #kai ninjago #kai smith #cole has my whole heart but kai #kai is special to me #they all are to be fair #anyway i liked the new season #pacing was wonky but the quality was consistently good with fun jokes and cool animation and scenes #i like it a lot #i wanna work for lego one day #that would be nice

July random art dump!

#first art dump in a while lol. hi y’all :) #me? posting at a regular hour? never. 2:24 am or bust #in other fun and exciting news: recently got myself an iPad to see if it would inspire me to draw more often! so that’s been cool #and yeah! kinda! I still prefer the computer obviously but it DID give me the will to animate for the first time in ages! #and like. me? actually DRAWING my own ocs??? more likely than you'd think nowadays! lol #(this post featuring a yiga oc based on a dream i had based on the crit role zelda campaign; a mermaid shopkeep from my own campaign; #a spidersona; and an oc who's slowly become more bitter as i too slowly grow more disillusioned with life!) #anyway thanks for stopping by! hope yall have been well since we last spoke :) have a lovely rest of your day/night! #also oh my GOD i hate this new post editor. holy shit. what fresh hell is this #and to be safe: #tw: flashing #tw flashing #flashing

[bonnieisaway]

now in my head i understand and i know it's a very good and cool artistic choice that during the scene in s3 of seven saving thirteen (you all know what i'm fucking talking about let's be so fr do i even need the screenshot) that when it plays back seven actually reaching out for thirteen that it's not a fluid animation and it's frame by frame movements to illustrate how little time they had and how quickly seven was moving to save her. yet however as an editor with a specific taste for my own content i'd fucking love this thing to have a bit more GODDAMN MOVEMENT /J

#IT MAKES ME SO ILL AND I CAN NEVER USE IT #BECAUSE MY OLD EDITS WERE SO BORING I'M REALLY PHOBIC ABOUT /NOTHING/ ON SCREEN MOVING FOR 3 WHOLE SECONDS #(the reason i dont edit pjsk mcuh lmao) #AND ITS LIKE PLEASE THESE FRAMES MAKE ME SO ILL #I'M BEGGING YOU #DIRECTOR I'M ON MY FUCKING KNEES #I think if the director heard the full translation and length of the insane things I say he'd be concerned for my well being #I think about his show more than I fucking do #Probably harder too i'll overanalyze anything #Some animator “this detail will look cool” me fr “HOLY SHIT” #scissor seven #killer seven #wu liuqi #seven

[stealingyourbones]

The want and urge to animate an eldritch horror Danny Phantom is so strong and yet I don’t have the artistic skill or knowledge of particular types of animation to fully do the idea in my mind justice

#bones speaks #you know that one arg channel? _Boisvert #that one #the angel from that #that’s the best way to describe what’s going on in my head #I feel the need to animate and not draw it bc drawing it won’t show the extent of the *wrongness* ya know #angels say ‘be not afraid’ for a damn reason when first meeting people and I need Danny to have the same vibe #sorta holy or divine and visually goes beyond human comprehension so much so that we can only see what our brain can best process #which is to say: some creepy ass bullshit of an amalgam horror creature of colossal size and power #When I look at Eldritch Horror Danny it needs to be so much overstimulation of shit going on that I instantly start dissociating #it needs to be so much at the same time that it genuinely makes you mentally break #if you check out that ARG channel: be warned that it’s main theme is depression and hopelessness. it may send you into a depressive spiral. #it has frightening and VERY unnerving imagery along with religious themes and gore and a LOT of staring #just so y’all know and I don’t accidentally make y’all dissociate or anythin cause that shit nearly instantly makes me lose touch w reality #like I should enjoy watching it bc it genuinely makes me feel bad and yet the curiosity of such an interesting take of the medium an just- #it’s just so cool ya know? stuff Beyond Comprehension and exsistential dread is just FASCINATING. #like Everywhere at the End of Time #that shit? instantly makes me have an anxiety attack and makes me off the rest of the day. #do I find it incredibly intriguing and on the occasion listen to it again knowing damn well that I’m setting myself up for a shitty day? yes #it’s just sO COOL #audio format of dementia is beautifully haunting. I worked for a time volunteering helping dimentia patients. some of them… #they were hollow. empty shells of a person that when I saw them all I could visualize was that awful static from the album just going on and #on forever. there was nothing left. that shit and morality scares the SHIT out of me and equally entices me #tw dissociation #tw memory loss #tw dementia

we'll see aki driving tomorrow.........

#giggles uncontrollably #I'm pretty sure the next episode of chainsaw man will just be the bat devil fight #I don't think we'll get the leech devil fight / the dream battle until episode four #because I don't think they could cram all of it into one episode #which means.... we won't get aki saying kon until next week #but that also means...... one more week until aki saying kon #so excited. I could scream at the top of my lungs #not sure if I ever said this but the kon scene was one of the main reasons why I read chainsaw man #I saw it and I was like #holy shit that guy is cool that's such a cool power I wanna read that #so seeing it animated is gonna be so crazy..... #aki <3

Started crying over the Batman Beyond Animated Movie concept art. I am so normal.

#do they want my left or right kidney? they can have that one and my appendix as I don't need those to survive #I'm saving my uterus for Silksong if it needs more funding. I'm not gonna use it so might as well. #/j #about selling my organs not about crying over Batman Beyond Animated Movie #I think a Batman Beyond Animated Movie could fix me. Or make me even more autistic about it. probably both. #Batman Beyond is what got me into Batman. it was the only Batman related thing my library had and I thought it looked cool #so I would just watch Batman Beyond for like 5 hours minimum every day during my surgery recovery #so if you're wondering why I am like this...that's why. Batman Beyond did it. it's still my comfort media and i always go back to it #THAT ONE IMAGE OF INQUE CHASING TERRY?? OH MY GOD IT'S SO GORGEOUS #oh my god I am so ordinary and neurotypical #THE FUCKING PRODUCTION DESIGN GUY ON SPIDERVERSE POSTED THEM?? #sav eme Batman Beyond Animated Movie #it will fix me I promise #if it is made I will forgive Bruce Timm for his weird thing for Batman x Batgirl. #SPIDERVERSE OF BATMAN MOVIES?? OH MY GOD #Derek Powers on my movie screen #THE SHIT THEY COULD DO WITH SHRIEK??? HOLY FUCK #I hope to god they still have the cold open on old-man Batman (world-weary and brittle-boned) almost shooting somebody in a panic #because THAT is the only compelling reason I have ever seen for Bruce leaving behind the mantle #I love content where its like 'oh when he gets older he becomes the Alfred to a new Batman' or 'he'll retire because Gotham will be better' #but I'll be honest. I do not think Bruce is capable of retirement. I do not think he would ever hang up the mantle willingly #unless he almost became the very kind of person who got his parents killed: a gun-wielding coward. the pain in his eyes. #I could see that. Bruce realizing that he is incapable of being Batman. That he will do more harm for Gotham than good. #if they don't want it to be the opener that's fine. but I want that damn scene. #ajdfl;dksajfl;kjdsfl;kadjskl;fjds Terry my friend Terry on my movie screen #I am going to explode

If faith made us able to stand

Logic knocked me right down to my knees

'Cause that faith hides the face of a sham

And God is not talking to me

I was one of his sheep, but lying under the wool

A wolf was hiding his teeth, I am abominable

Praytell, if he's walkin' with you

Why the hell ain't he talkin' to me?

Now how can I start to believe?

if it wasn't obvious dustgrave has some heavy religious coding underneath.

and it's based of the idea that maybe... using you power to put yourself on a pedestal for mortals to worship may not be the best thing to do even if you have their best interest?

the angel IS dust graves god. thay is until YOU the demon took control =)

#god these lyrics are so good #i have to animate #MUST ANIMATE #im losing my mind #holy shit why is this so cool...

something something higher quality animations meme something paying 60$ for the same models same lifeless animations something something they massacred salamence something something coliseum

#awn the intercom #me and my silly complaints ✌️🥴 no but seriously how did coliseum do that better #im speaking strictly animations here I don’t care for the models EVEN THOUGH MODERN 3D PIKEMON IS DESATURATED AF #i know coliseum had less Pokémon for sure so. Is that it can we just have a small amount of Pokémon then #The hardware is certainly stronger and I’ve never freaked out about the less pokemon thing and prefer it actually #Makes it so much easier then to catch EVERY GEN POKÉMON EVER IN EXISTENCE #the 3D models look okay again I am making that clear. but holy shit these animations are stagnant and reptetive #ME WHEN I DOUBLE KICK YOU : * two hood in place * #It’s okay In X&Y and ORAS and maybe even us/um . That’s straight up 3Ds i dont blame them #But the switch of console to have the animations be so. Be so. Be so. Copied #And i know coliseum copied they animations too. BUT THE ANIMATIONS WERE GOOD #LIKE COLISEUM HAD BOMB ANIMATIONS LIKE LOOKING AT IT I WISH I HAD THE GAME ! #but watching a Pokémon battle in any of the games beyond black & white is so. So mehhhhh #AND I LOOOOOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE USUM #I KISS IT ON THE LIPS GREAT AMAZING BEAUTIFUL GAME #but sw/sh was so underwhelming in terms of animations #I will never forget that fade to black cutscene where Sonia like flicked a switch or whatever #WHATS THE POINT OF TRANSFERING TO 3D IF YOU WONT DO ANYTHING COOL WITH IT WAAAAAAH #don’t get me started on swsh story. DO GET ME STARTED ON POKEMON CAMP BC I LOVED THAT. fuck swsh story though. #swsh story : SNOOOOK MIMIMIMIM SNOOOOOK MIMIMIMI OH YEAH THERES COOL STUFF HAPPENING BUT YOU ARENT ALLOWED TO SEE IT SNOOOK MIMI #chad usum: space pokemon 🗿grown up red and blue 🗿giovanni gay pride event 🗿 CRUSTY DUSTY WHITE ARCHIE JUMPSCARE 😟😟 #yeah okay i didn’t like the old ruby sapphire designs sue me. but everything else was PEAK #swsh mid. not good not bad but a secret third thing ( boring ) i have not finished the dlc but i did get glimpses and that seemed nice but #much lik security breach if base game is babyfest the dlc will ALWAYS seem leagues better
