For everyone who wanted bullfighter Nando when I mentioned it the other day, here you go :D

+ this one I don't feel like coloring yet(imagine he's in Ferrari colors!!!)

#did you know bullfighters dedicate their kill to a friend or member of the public by giving them their hat? #i really wanted to draw silly vettonso where fernando offers seb his hat #seb retires from bullfighting(yeah its an au now) and fernando in his green costume is like; #'here is my hat. now will you come back from retirement? 🥺' #but yeah feel very abnormal abt that ^ and also the thing abt them having someone who helps them get into their costume as a sacred ritual #theres just a lot of thoughts and ideas floating around in my head bcs of it #anyways i liked drawing this but it was very suffering too and took me like 5 hours #its like. you see the intricate embroidery and im like ah! omg! i love painting details!!! #and then remember im not the best w coming up with ideas for the embroidery pattern itself #so pls bear with me 😭😭 mainly i was trying to reference the diamond logo of renault #but most of it kinda just ended up being austrian knots i guess bcs thats what my mind defaults to #i thought the shoulder pad would be the most difficult but that came together the easiest and made the rest actually work in my head #aaahhh also im surprised w the angle of his face! im usually not good at side profiles as well as tilted down heads #but i think he looks pretty good honestly??? #also w the sketch i just wanted to post it bcs i liked his face okay 😭😭😭 #i wanted to paint it too but I realized im so naive thinking i could paint two of these horrifically detailed things in one session #but his face 🥹🥹 i like it!!! theres some renault era pic of him i really like where hes sun drenched and angry looking #^ and i think i captured the vibe well so!!!!! #well anyways mayhe ill draw more of this. it was fun but also like sucked my life force out bcs it kept going from easy to 'I CANT DO THIS' #the pictures of matadors are just...insane to me. tiny waist fat ass flamboyant costume. im dead 🫠 #f1 #formula 1 #fernando alonso #catie.art. #fa14 #matador au

sza open arms but it’s shri’iia’s relationship with lolth specifically this part

#please put a leash on me anyway….. who needs self esteem anyway…………………….!!!!!!! #the way I treat her relationship with lolth (and her matriarch bc she projects lolth on her) and her Oath is like this toxic abusive #relationship where she is So copedent on the other and she wants to Please and follow them so badly that she disregards her own self sm #like to the point where her own sense of self/individuality is so divorced from herself bc she just thinks that she’s Made to follow this #oath and her body is a tool for them to use so she doesn’t really care what they do with it bc as long as she’s following her oath she’s #content. since to her her oath is literally everything you know and it just so happens that her oath is centered around following her #goddess and her matriarch.. like the option to Not Follow them was so unfathomable that when she actually does it it’s out of her own will #and when she bears the brunt of that consequence she doesn’t know what comes next bc she never knew she could do That u know …. #anyway I think conceptualising her relationship with her faith in that way is interesting to me since I read somewhere not sure if it’s #canon or what but lolth’s relationship with the drows is an allegory for domestic abuse so like… it tracks #also the thing with shri’iia is that she doesn’t see herself as a victim bc she was the one who swore up on that oath u know #so for her everything else that followed and the way she was treated is basically like well this is what u we’re getting into 🤷‍♀️ #but it’s also like she didn’t even know there were other options considering her society is just one big lolth cult and then there’s the #drow victim blaming mentality that’s def ingrained on her #like I could see her understanding someone else’s pain and struggles and trying to offer some form of comfort #but if it comes to her she’ll just be confused on why they feel bad bc she signed up for it 🥲😩😔 #parts of the things she’s def unlearning now that shes stuck in the surface lol

now that im finished with gatsby i just have to like write down my thoughts and then make them all cute and neat and stuff then im gonna start gone with the wind

#dorian reads classics #great gatsby <3 #im still thinking abt this btw like idk if ill be able to focus in class due to gatsby #i really #i love the story of two lonely souls who find a strange comfort in being lonely together while one has accepted his fate of solitude and #is grateful when the occasional person comes into his life for whatever short chapter theyll feature in and the other soul actively attempt #to fight against his fate of solitude (all this while Nick honestly could have gotten away from his solitude by being friends #with Tom and Daisy and Jordan yet in the end he decides to stick with his only true companion) while Gatsby falls farther and farther #from his goal of being happy (or what he perceives as happiness because that's all he's known and all his mind can accept as happiness) wit #Daisy. IM SICK. #its really sad that in the very end when it all really truly matter Nick was the only one to stay by his side #and even sicker that Nick couldn't even bear to stay in a West Egg that didnt have Gatsby in it #like ??? what was Francis THINKING when he wrote this OUGH #he had to know that neurodivergent little creatures would overthink and analyze the crap out of it.... #AND HONESTLY GATSBY HURTS ALOT MORE WHEN YOU THINK ABT THE FACT THAT FRANCIS LIVED THIS #this is HIS life he wrote this FROM EXPERIENCE and that hurts sosososo much #like people really only care for you when you can offer them something....

turning the bizarre image of angry, vengeful 1983!bj feeding what i am almost certain is a hallucination of his child self a wedge of orange around in my head today.

#it's so strangely uncomfortable yet sweet and i can't pinpoint why. #there's a coldness in that scene and idk if it's coming from how bj interacts with him (*making* him eat the orange) #or how he imagines a hollowness in little barry from the moment he sees him. or if it's bc before we can even assume barry isn't real #we know bj is there to visit his mum and he's getting angrier and more unstable the closer he gets to his old home. #it's like. even though i don't think bj would be violent toward a child... something puts me on edge. #it's like it feigns warmth (feeding him. offering him his band badge. trying to make a connection?) but there's just emptiness. it's cold. #(barry vanishes inexplicably when bj attacks his mum btw and his mum doesn't mention him *once* so it leads me to believe he wasn't real.) #(also the comment about ghosts seems two-fold: mrs. anderson thinking bj has been dead all this time and barry being a 'ghost' in bj's head #but like. idk. that scene is so weird. the way bj interacts with what must be himself. it teeters between trying to be kind and #seeming to almost dislike/hate what he sees. #film!bj is interesting to me at that stage but i want to pick book!bj's brain more. i don't understand him much at all. #again tho. none of this *really* has any bearing on my portrayal since i'm more film-based. but still. turning it around. #wondering if there's anything to pick from it. #wondering if... bj hates his child self? probably a bit. probably... could at least learn to be gentler with himself. #hm. #out of fairy tales [ooc]; #sorry putting on my clown nose again.

sorry but i'm going to have to disagree. rtd's comment SOUNDS innocent and well meaning, but when sacha, an asian villain wore jodie's clothes it was fine and nothing has been said about that, but when its tennant thats unthinkable?? also, jodie specifically went to her designer and asked for an androgynous outfit because she'd seen a gnc person and wanted the doctor to be similar - why wouldn't they be? the doctor's gender is literally fluid. in the most literal sense of the word. i was hoping for some in-universe explanation for the clothes change but if its just that, i'm going to be genuinely disappointed.

i appreciate disliking the choice (i'm not actually a fan of it myself just pointing out some potential thoughts behind it + getting fed up of people spreading lies about what was actually said), but i'll repeat my pov on your points here!

"when sacha, an asian villain wore jodie's clothes it was fine and nothing has been said about that, but when its tennant thats unthinkable??"

thats exactly the point though, right? the subset that WOULD make horrible comments about it, are the type of people who also wouldn't blink twice at a “villain” “crossdressing” lets be real here. a lot of media plays that up. similar to how the reaction to whittaker!doctor and gomez!master was quite different. its different when its the actual lead. RTD would v likely know this (but bear in mind, RTD likely didn't know Dhawan!Doctor was happening in tPotD when he was planning the regeneration scene)

Dhawan almost immediately switched out for a mix of all the Doctor's outfits and eventually gets back to his Rasputin fit, it’s not his ONE look for the episode compared to it would have been 100% of DT’s screentime

with Dhawan Doctor, it was in the middle of an episode which Chibnall wrote apparently thinking the show was being CANCELLED (so like, didnt need to think abt the media reaction as much even if it had OCCURRED to him to do so)

coming out of the episode, what were all the headlines about? the regeneration. Tennant. which is what ALWAYS happens with these eps. RTD probably suspected this was going to be the main chat of the next YEAR before there’s new eps because that’s what ALWAYS gets the attention/publicity.

"also, jodie specifically went to her designer and asked for an androgynous outfit because she'd seen a gnc person and wanted the doctor to be similar - why wouldn't they be? the doctor's gender is literally fluid. in the most literal sense of the word."

Sure and the whole REASON Whittaker herself had to emphasise "these are not women’s clothes they’re the doctor’s clothes" "anyone can wear them" etc. etc. back when she first started is because SHE knew the public/media reaction too and was trying to get ahead of it in the same way as RTD is with this.

RTD hasn't said the Doctor is cis, or can't be played by a woman again, or that cosplayers can't dress as 13 (or whatever people are making up now) it's purely about the REAL WORLD reaction of having Tennant be the last shot of the ep, the ONLY official shot of his Doctor we would have had for a whole YEAR for the vultures to potentially latch on to. The Doctor doesn't exist in a vacuum.

"i was hoping for some in-universe explanation for the clothes change but if its just that, i'm going to be genuinely disappointed."

this still might happen!! the article (that i know of) doesn't say anything about whether it'll play into the plot. i'm hoping it will too, especially as the end of tPotD plays it up as feeling so Wrong/out of place (which... again is probably why RTD didn't want Tennant in Whittaker's outfit here if that was the vibe he was going for!!! the optics there would have been very 😬)

#replies tag #i typed this out once and then tumblr glitched out so i rushed retyping it if u see typos lmk 😔 #rtd #doctor who #once again i dont rlly agree w it wholeheartedly but i do get where rtd is coming from #i get why people are upset/angry just offering potentially some logic/reasoning...... #obvs i cant read rtds mind so ! #also as for innocent and well meaning 1 i never said that #2 like... yeah he wants to protect ppl from seeing vitriol towards trans ppl/gnc ppl/ppl who do drag etc... like... #seems well meaning to me even if i dont agree w the choice and the way he worded his explanation is a bit clumsy #bear in mind he's been working in british media how long now lmao he knows the game he knows the reactions so well by now #he had to fight SO hard to be allowed to get its a sin on air

the thing with autism right. is i know if i was having a full mental health crisis what i would end up doing is going to the emergency room and being like "hello, my name is (x) birthday (y), um i was hoping to talk to you about potential mental health inpatient care? i'm currently having a mental health crisis and don't think i can be trusted on my own" like if there's one thing i can be sure will live on in me no matter how hard the brainworms try. is my fucking customer service voice

#like itll be busted as fuck because ill be freaking out but you bet ill be sobbing my way through verbally drafting an email #ive done it before‚ like im a frustrated crier and once i start crying i cant turn it off so ive had a couple times where i had a breakdown #at work‚ cried about it a lot‚ and my lead pulled me into a meeting room after i calmed down to check in #and as soon as i started talking it just started again so i had to be like 'sorry th-this is just something m-m-my bod-dy does‚ i-i'm calm #m-mentally but i just c-cant turn this-is off‚ just try to i-ignore HIC it and f-f-focus-s on the w-wwwords‚ #(tired of crytyping so just mentally fill it in yourself in everything else i say) #n they offered me more time to chill but im like no really i genuinely am calm‚ i calm down wayyy before my body does its gonna #keep doing this on and off all day‚ it takes hours for it to fully calm down and is on a hair trigger the entire time #so thinking about this will make it kick back up again no matter what unless we talk tomorrow‚ so if youre ok with bearing with me then cool #and theyre like. dang ok and just focused on what i said #or much more recently i was talking to my roommate‚ stopped‚ held up a finger + stood there silently for ten seconds‚ #then was like 'sorry about that‚ i think i have to throw up. excuse me for a moment. what was that? oh gotcha yeah i'll message you if i #need anything‚ thank you' #and just typing it out like that it sounds like i was fine and just saw it coming a ways away. however that is not the case #i had had my covid booster and some other vaccine earlier that day‚ lost 5 vials of blood‚ eaten Nothing‚ drank only #acidic-ass apple juice‚ and had just hit my vape too hard #keeping it in once it made its presence known was a feat of will the likes of which have never been seen before #and still my sentences prevail

biting and attacking past me for being lazy with this .oto and only .otoing half of each sample so they could move on to the immediate gratification of hearing the vb in action

#for context this is a cvvc library recorded using a 7 mora string + 2 mora breakdowns #which yes is redundant BUT #well there isn't much but it was mostly me just being viscerally against pure 2 mora strings skdjfhgk #the 7 mora makes me feel like i'm going faster and ensures i have a backup if any of the 2 mora sound like ass #AND then i get both continuous samples and starting samples which i find really adds to the voice #ANYWAY #past me .oto'd only the 7 mora string part on most of these #and not even the VCs #so now i'm agonizingly having to go through and .oto out the remaining CVs and VCs #i keep thinking about the people who have offered to help #but i look at the redundancy hell in which i find myself (i.e. .oto contains ど1 ど2 ど3 ど4 and - ど) #and feel i cannot subject anyone else to it sdkhflgk #when it comes time to .oto primavera leftovers though i will gladly take up on the offer #← original half-made .oto was done in 2015 and i can't bear to make it again #but all the samples are standard 7 mora CVVC and clearly labeled with no repeats so PHEW #utau hell continues . . . .

#i had a dream a couple days ago that my mom was in my apartment. it wasnt even like a bad dream #she just came into my room and sat on my bed and asked me if i was okay #and then layed down next to me to hug me and comfort me like i was a little kid again #except #my mom has literally never done that for me in my life. and any time she offered comfort my vulnerabilities were immediately exploited #to hurt me #im going through alot of shit right now. and even though ive never had that kindness from my mom #when im hurt like this theres still a part of me that wants my mom so fucking bad #and the fact that i have never and will never get that from her makes everything worse #and i fucking wish that it didnt #i hope i never have to see her again in my whole life #i wish she was here and i hate that im 27 years old but im also still 5 and 7 and 13. #anyways after that dream i went to therapy and then after therapy i disassociated for 2 days and im just barely kinda coming out of it #lmaooooooooo #<- i had to put this bc you know how it is #anyways if you actually read these tags uhh thanks for bearing witness i guess #xr complains in the tags

something something believing in the greater good, believing it's all worth it through it all. something something. stretching yourself thin until you can't do anything but slide to the street while the dust and debris settles around you. never seeing the people you saved. only the ghosts that wait for you whenever you get home. being exposed on a daily basis to the worst parts of humanity but never believing that anyone is too far gone to come back.

#the fact that zaf transfers over from being an analyst at six and gets thrown into some shit straight away #and yet STILL remains the same guy full of hope and belief in the world makes me feral #he sees SO much. and he still refuses to blindly follow orders and *always* offers help to everyone - #no matter what they intend to do / have done. #he has a soft heart that he refuses to let the security service harden #and that selflessness comes out in such a huge way in the first episode of series 6 #the implications in the series finale make me wanna throw up. #i like to think he held onto that soft heart through it all but ... idk. i also like to think he went to some place mentally #that made it all easier to bear. #tbh i dont know which one is worse. i fucking hate bbc. legitimately.

James 2

My brothers, do not show favoritism as you hold on to the faith in our glorious Lord Jesus Christ. For example, a man comes into your meeting wearing a gold ring and dressed in fine clothes, and a poor man dressed in dirty clothes also comes in. If you look with favor on the man wearing the fine clothes and say, "Sit here in a good place," and yet you say to the poor man, "Stand over there," or, "Sit here on the floor by my footstool," haven't you discriminated among yourselves and become judges with evil thoughts?

Listen, my dear brothers: Didn't God choose the poor in this world to be rich in faith and heirs of the kingdom that He has promised to those who love Him? Yet you dishonored that poor man. Don't the rich oppress you and drag you into courts> Don't they blaspheme the noble name that was pronounced over you at your baptism?

Indeed, if you keep the royal law prescribed in the Scripture, Love your neighbor as yourself, you are doing well. But if you show favoritism, you commit sin and are convicted by the law as transgressors. For whoever keeps the entire law, yet fails in one point, is guilty of breaking it all. For He who said, Do not commit adultery, also said, Do not murder. So if you do not commit adultery, but you do murder, you are a lawbreaker.

Speak and act as those who will be judged by the law of freedom. For judgement is without mercy to the one who hasn't shown mercy. Mercy triumphs over judgement.

What good is it, my brothers, if someone says he has faith but does not have works? Can his faith save him?

If a brother or sister is without clothes and lacks daily food, and one of you says to them, "Go in peace, keep warm, and eat well," but then you don't give them what the body needs, what good is it? In the same way faith, if it doesn't have works, is dead by itself.

But someone will say, "You have faith, and I have works." Show me your faith without works, and I will show you faith from my works. You believe God is one; you do well. The demons also believe-- and they shudder.

Foolish man! Are you willing to learn that faith without works is useless? Wasn't Abraham our father justified by works when he offered Isaac his son on the altar? You see that faith was active together with his works, and by works, faith was perfected. SO the Scripture was fulfilled that says, Abraham believed God, and it was credited to him for righteousness, and he was called God's friend. You see that a man is justified by works and not by faith alone. And in the same way, wasn't Rahab the prostitute also justified by works when she received the messengers and sent them out by a different route? For just as the body without the spirit is dead, so also faith without works is dead.

#james 2 #emphasis mine #grace is what offers us salvation #faith is what takes it #works is what comes from it #we may have outward signs of growth #but we must be truly born again on the inside #and what is on the inside will come out #just as an olive bears forth oil #or a fruit when pressed will bear its juices #so when we are faced with each new day #what is in the heart will be expressed on the surface #I know I am guilty of continual arrogance and selfishness and laziness and fear. #I know I need to seek the power of God in prayer in order to fight that

yes i understand i got groomed but also made plans to visit said groomer and made sure to dress hot to prove something?

#personal #don’t worry folks it’s a happy ending he ended up going home early and i arrived late #like in general i go to his store sometimes bc it’s the only company in my location that offers a certain thing #and yes i could go to a different one but i know his schedule and visit the coworkers i fuck with #plus it’s not like i’m laminating posters like every week #but anyway they couldn’t do it yesterday same day and i didn’t want to leave it over night cause i’ll be honest i worked there #not that that’s bad but if i left my print over night i know i’m gonna find a bunch of stuff laminated in and also i’m not sure if i when i #could come back with my current schedule #but anyway so it was like come during earlier hours when he’s there and god the worst part of it is i don’t even dread it #i can perfectly imagine going him making weird comments or gestures me laughing it off #him asking invasive questions and maybe i answer maybe i don’t #and then i’d leave #but anyway it didn’t work out that way - in hindsight for the better #and i got the lamination done at another location #got some bear highlighter and my mom a just add water instant soap tabs just bc she’s on the go with my dad a lot #and he can get gross #oh and win! we got his meds tonight!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! oh my god!!!!!!!!!!!
