#i am a little alien actually

[neolxzr]

went out wearing my antennas and an alien patterned shirt and a little kid in costco pointed at me and was like “youre an ALIEN!!!!!” super excitedly and i think that was my peak in life

#cryn rambles #i am a little alien actually #thats my gender

What led to this (orufrey comic, cw an uncomfortable/creepy scene)

#witch hat tag #orufrey #er.... i'm too tired to have anything to say..i worked several days on this. #wait.. didn't i say just recently here that i probably wouldn't ever depict 'what if alaira is qifrey's sort-of ex'. What's going on #i don't even remember deciding to draw this..it's all a blur..i'm not sure why i WOULD decide to draw delicate scenes in my head #that i wouldn't really want to share with anyone/discuss so why did i draw it... #some part of me really really wants to draw things that are more and more true to myself... #maybe because of my alienation with most romance/shipping/dynamics the rest of the world depicts. #orufrey really is perfectly suited to me - what i read in the text and what is in my head. well anyway #i am TIRED of drawing poses and angles and..maybe now i will actually take a break from drawing bc of the tediousness of Angles #btw it really is a 'stretch of time' . . . assuming witches graduate age 18-20 #well orufrey are canonically 30-ish. they've only had agott around for presumably about TWO years (?) bc she took the test age 10 #and it feels like oru moving in/unknown atelier acquisition/building (?) .. i guess that could be a year or so before agott at most #(she was the first disciple) so... ????????? What about the other 7 or so years ?!?!?!!?!?! Unemployed Brimhat Hatred era #that time is very nebulous. after qifrey went to the tower i feel like it's been implied he and oru drifted apart a little. #certainly they didn't live together at first... no way. that doesn't feel like how it is based on things oru has said about becoming Eye #idk. I'm tired now. i don't usually think of alaira as necessarily qifrey's ex and this being how things went in that 'sliver of time'. #i usually prefer the idea that they have their first kiss with each other in their 30s cause That's Just The Orufrey Lifestyle #just felt like making a more relatable alternative view of my own Cai Orufrey Canon one time. btw im a big monoshipper and it hurt a bit #let's leave it there. this is surely the most i've worked on a 'single' art - though now i realise just how much longer the fic took :')

going about my ordinary life: i wish things were different

contemplating the approach of Life Changes: aahhghhghghahh!!! !!!

#told my job i am leaving in may... still don't have another job to go to but i have a friend to live with and uhhh we'll figure it out #i am actually rly sad to leave oklahoma tho. being preemptively nostalgic #it's kinda fucked up maybe but also i like it!! and ill miss my pigeons and my mediocre buses and my little cafes and my friendsss #i hate change and i hate attachment. but i also hate stagnation and alienation :/// #skravler

Just something I had to put on YouTube and now all of you will see it here too lmao.

#alien stage #alien stage ivan #alien stage till #alien stage round 6 #alien stage round 6 spoilers #I am not ok and my little theory for them becomes more and more relevent the closer we get to knowing more of these goddamn characters #I COULD BE COMPLETELY WRONG #BUT BOTH MIZI AND IVAN are making STATEMENTS (weather intentional or NOT) in this competition and its TELLING #Wr already saw before that their are actual protests with this competition in the first place and mizi and ivans postions are just #PROVING THEIR POINTS AND SHOWING HOW HORRIFYING THIS SHOW IS #It just SAYS something and then turn in for it to be that they are both alien and human????? OH BOY #Yeah #Maybe Im trying my copium to ivan still being alive with this theory but #CAN YOU BLAME ME??? #Goddammit Vivinos when I caught you when I caught you vivinos #Pay for my goddamn THERAPY for this shit *sobs*

till will win round 7 cause he'll beat lukas face in with ivans yaoi paddle (homemade with a drawing of till on the back)

#this post came just cause i wanted to say the words “ivans yaoi paddle” sorry chat #if it comes to it i think luka also ends up in the posession of a yaoi paddle #mizi too actually #till only inherits ivans #alnst till #alnst luka #alnst ivan #(in spirit) #who am i kidding hes in that paddle #he's like yaoi mia fey the stage starts to get a little too boobalicious and till hears a distant “till... turn the yaoi paddle around..... #alnst #alien stage #im normal #round 7 #till alnst #luka alnst #ivan alnst

I love that the bg3 guys are all written to have this intense adoration of karlach and lae’zel’s abilities to absolutely eviscerate their enemies. they’ve all got the same taste in women, which is “she could gut the big scary man chasing me, and then princess carry me to safety in her blood spattered arms.” and I respect and relate to that, as a bisexual man myself.

#bg3 #thoughts about media #I actually love all combinations between any of the guys and lae or karlach. all very good pairings. #honestly hard to choose a fave... but I do quite like wyll & lae and star & karlach. #idk. something about a guy exiled by his own father and then alienated by fiend’s blood with a girl entirely outcast by her people. #in both cases they are punished despite doing the right thing all because they questioned someone of a lawful alignment. #and then star and karlach... both stripped of their autonomy and treated as nothing but a means to an end... #and the unique romance cutscenes they can get with each other!! actually so sweet. #but don’t get me wrong. I still do love all the other combos too. #and it goes without saying that lae & karlach is a great pair too. nothing like a warrior’s bond. #meanwhile my approval the m/m ships is...well. limited. #I love wyll & star together. I like gale & wyll. I am okay with halsin & any of the boys...but he has to be written better. #and by better I mean give him a little more character and make it less about sex only. because the game largely reduces him to sex alone. #no shart mention because I never take her anywhere unless I have to. #sorry. I do not hate her but she just isn’t interesting to me. #and although there’s writing to acknowledge shartstarion as a possible pair. #I think it’s the worst companion/companion pair and I refuse to think about it. #I mean seriously. it’s a combination of two polyamorous bisexuals and yet the pair feels heterosexual. #please don’t to that to my darling vampire. let him be princess carried by the hot warrior gals.

im going to start mauling people if they keep trying to ask me about my discourse positions. "what do you think about [x]" ok well first off i don't think about it. at all. secondly the weather is nice today. thirdly i'm going to go play outside. have a good day

#not directed at anyone here. to be clear #sorry i am a little frustrated #i used to be in the Discourse Trenches back in the day and it really enabled me to just be. a huge fucking dick to whoever i wanted and it #was an awful time for not only me but of course the people around me. i Refuse to entrench myself in any sort of online discourse again #and also i think online discourse has made some people completely unable to figure out what is and what is not an actual problem and not #just something they've misconstrued or exaggerated the consequence of in their head. #if it is not causing direct harm to the person in question or the people around them (and no discomfort is not harm) then i dont care. #online discourse 90% of the time not only waters down any sort of “issue” it seeks to solve but completely destroys any and all nuance out #of fear of being seen as “agreeing” with the “other side” and thus alienated from spaces and being misconstrued and disliked and etc etc et #i am soo over it. i'm gonna go play sportsball or something

ncuti fucking gatwa!! what a man!!!

#unless the writing for the new series is absolutely abysmal #i can pretty much guarantee already that hes gonna be my favourite ever doctor besides ten #he is #so good #doctor who #am i honestly not certain how i feel about the ending of the ep otherwise #i dont hate it but i dont love it and i dont really know what to think #the toymaker performance was impeccable #and the horror vibes for the bit with the doors was perfection #i really hope the horror vibes keep going into the new series because its so fun #i love it when my silly little alien show becomes all dark and fucked up actually #anyway ncuti gatwa is a god i am obsessed with him #genuinely the most perfect casting ever

[skunkes]

very often ill see bears following my nsfw account and ill end up looking thru their profiles as i check for ppls ages in bio and theyre 99.9% bear4bear. That one anon lied to me.

#talkys #this is like a half joke/not that deep bc i dont actually care #and like. hm. how do i word dis. #there ARE people that have messaged me very very excessively over how much theyre into al on there #and i would NOT want that directed at me. #and i myself am‚ of course‚ an al enjoyer #and like. this is also not that deep im not saying its actually affecting me on a very personal level #especially since me and skunker are boring little guy things #but seeing everyone going into that account only being there for my guy is just reminding me of #being friends with like the prettiest girl in high school #where like at lunch she'd leave to get something and all the guys tailing her would be like #so whats the name of your hot friend lol :) #LIKE GAH. of course you're here for him but damnnnn cmonnnn #idk how to describe it bc again id also feel strange if ppl were being weird about skunker instead. idk! idk what it is #and i myself wouldnt lust after skunker adjacent beasts etc so i get it but theres Something about it i cant place #I THINK its bc skunker is an expression of identity and self #and skunker and cow al are like. copium. so some part of me feels really alienated by feeling like my audience straight up doesnt want #''me'' there...ykwim...i think thats it. bc ive been asked for more solo als or al with literally anyone else #or al with other big guys bc itd be hotter #and while im open to dis if im paid to draw it it really feels like the simpsons sheep bit LOL

[aq2003]

series 3 is so frustrating because there is like a shining core of pure diamond underneath the problems . like conceptually it rocks so incredibly hard. but the problems

#dr who #i am being so honest when i say ten should have gotten on his knees and begged for simm!master's life #they should have framed the bit between him and martha's mom so different #like yes it is 10000% in character that the doctor with his bleeding heart and loneliness wouldn't want to kill him #even after everything that happened. because he's the only person he has left. 'i forgive you' was PERFECT. #but literally anyone else that suffered from what the master did. Deserves to rip him to shreds. so very obviously #and like i know.i KNOW that i am watching the 'funny immortal alien saves people through time and space' show #but i actually despise the doctor being framed as like an all powerful savior. or treated like one. even for a little bit. is Annoying #the first part of the series 3 finale having martha be humanity's last hope was SO GOOD bc it like kind of set her up as like #having to grapple with all that responsibility and attention like the doctor does. everyone's lives are in her hands. so crunchy #but when it like slides into 'everyone pls believe in our specialest boy in the world The Doctor <3' it just. falls flat #i feel like with a couple tweaks here and there in the execution and like actual fuckinnn people of color in the writer's room #series 3 would be PEAK media. but as it is it's just. falling short. #i do really appreciate martha deciding to leave ten on her own though. first of all. qpp down. second of all #she's realized that she can't keep traveling with him. bc (as i mentioned) hes someone who simultaneously needs saving #and refuses to be saved in the ways that matter. Yes im fucking ignoring the unrequited romance angle i think #it does a gigantic disservice to martha's character if u boil her down to that. fight me i dont care if that was the authorial intent #martha in the end is too kind to ten and ten keeps making her watch his meandering path of self destruction. toxic doomed qprism to ME. #anyway fuck. idk man series 2 consensus was that im dead inside and series 3 consensus is that the version i have of it in my head is peak #series 2 is better but i think because of my ten martha insanity i actually enjoyed watching series 3 more than series 2. #even if i got mad at it more than any other season. i think something is wrong with me. um. lmao #ten and martha #10 era

"Oh it would have been more satisfying if the humans had invented a technology which defeated the Martians rather than have them killed off by accident just when humanity's impotence in the face of disaster seems to be confirmed". I

To me that's just a fancy way of saying "Yeah but humans could totally handle the Martians and the writer has a duty to reassure the audience of that!"

Sir we cannot even handle climate change and I'm sorry to tell you that it's not entirely due to a lack of technological expertise

#In all fairness maybe we can handle climate change we don't know yet but it's going to take a lot more than a fancy new invention #As for war and genocide and all the other human ills that we can't seem to solve how do you think the atomic bomb worked out #And when I say technology or science I don't just mean in the normal STEM sense #As a history student you end up asking a lot whether your subject is actually beneficial to society or capable of solving anything #Or the political sciences- was the League f Nations or even today's UN a success? #Maybe if we just keep learning and studying we can solve it! Well maybe. But what will humanity look like when we're done? #Anyway I'm getting a bit far from the point of the War of the Worlds but maybe I'm just not enough of a science fiction nut for this convo #Maybe the image of societal collapse impressed itself on me more strongly than any delight over long-winded explanations of alien machines #Maybe it would be different if I'd read the book hoping for a good story about aliens #rather than to read one man's uncomfortable rather pessimistic views on what an alien invasion might tell us about human ity #I am simply asking certain fans to sometimes Dig a Little Deeper #Alright rant really over this time #...maybe #It's just that there are so many potential issues with that book but honestly I can't accept that the ending is one of them #Even the hint at the end that since the Martians proved it possible maybe some day humans might colonise other planets I just !!!!!

it's kind of frustrating that essentially all the advice on tumblr for functioning when your brain's not working properly assumes By Default that your brain's not working properly because of depression.

like. don't get me wrong, i'm glad there's advice for people with depression. and i'm totally capable of going, yeah ok this post isn't meant for me, moving on. but...when you have to do that with every advice post, when everyone around you is promising that everyone will feel better if they can put in the effort to do these things you know will make you feel worse, you start to wonder where the heck the posts that are meant for you are.

#this post brought to you by me considering making a different vent post and stopping for fear that everyone will jump down my throat with #that same 'baby steps! self-care! if you're tired just do a little bit every day and you'll get better at it! take your life into your #own hands!' that everyone here always says. i can't kyle. i have post-exertional malaise #curseposting #salty jungle cat noises #i don't know. maybe i'd be less annoyed about this if i hadn't had to deal with a year and a half of everyone around me telling me to #Just Exercise More And You'll Feel Better when i KNEW that would make it worse. and that one awful speech therapist who was convinced that #just wasn't trying and if i tried harder i wouldn't have brain fog. (he didn't SAY that but he made it very clear anyway.) #and having to On Purpose ignore all the academic advice i was getting because it was actually making it harder for me to succeed in school. #what am i some kind of alien. am i so different to everyone else that all advice ever does more harm than good. what #this is why i have issues with trusting authority #vent #*sigh* man i wish my collection of disorders were less obscure

DOCTOR WHO IS BACK BITCHES!!!!!!!!

#I’m genuinely so happy #is it giving everything I imagined it could be? #… maybe not *everything* #(granted it’s also only the first special and not even into the series so I’ll give it that on plot) #I wish the CGI was a little less impressive tbh #there’s just that big part of me that says Doctor Who is meant to be as corny and low budget camp as possible) #but I do absolutely appreciate all the practical effects esp with the alien costumes and all that so I respect it #(ALSO GIVE ME ROSE TYLER RTD YOU COWARD) #but god I truly am content and happy #actual characters and good simple plot????? #what a sigh of relief!!!!!!!!!! #I swear if this first episode had sucked I was gonna cry so hard haha #I can genuinely say I’m so excited to watch the next episode #and when was the last time I could say that????? #doctor who

Some further TMPs (Patreon)

#Doodles #Tamagotchi #So unfortunately by this time the first lineage has passed #We managed to raise them to the final(ish) TMP! TMP 4 anyhow #Unfortunately I'm of the belief that they do actually weaken from inbreeding lol - maybe not that sophisticated but like #I'm pretty sure the further you get along the more demanding they are so if you want to raise a ''perfect'' lineage it takes some work! #For the first playthrough we got the cute chonky lads - there named Bay and Bug (nicknamed Lord and Lady for funsies) #And then their babies and then /their/ babies lol #At this point I still only had the Osutchi so I only got to see Bug and Pollina in passing but Bug was soooo cuuuuute #Such adorable little designs <3 I might like the stark mostly-black with white detail designs the most haha #The generations ended with the Mesu first and smol tapped out - fair since I was starting to get tired myself #I still raised them for a bit but I eventually failed at getting the final-final evolution while I was on track #I came back and he had died from sickness :( Poor weak immunity lad </3 #But I've restarted again and am playing solo :) I'm on TMP 2 and about to move to 3! With different evolutions! #I've also set the clocks a bit differently so they're not waking me up early anymore lol - it's just nicer all around :) #And! And!! I got a Gen2 rerelease! :D #Another died to sickness >:0 But at least I got them to adulthood first and Gen2s don't reproduce haha #I'm planning to play through as many of the evolutions as I can - I really want the alien lookin' guy! Love me a good alien haha #It's a fun little game :)
