Prompt 119

Another divine twitch chat Au? Another divine twitch chat Au. With a bit of a twist. 

Billy would like to say it is in fact not his fault. It’s really not. Who hits someone with magic they obviously don’t know how to use? Well okay maybe he had done that before, but it’s not like he ever did it around other people where they could get hit! 

But someone was an idiot and now he’s here, as his normal ten-year old self kicking his legs while sitting in the Watchtower as the others argued. Apparently the League thinks he’s been de-aged, which is good as his secret isn’t out. 

The uh, issue is that something about the spell might have um, partially manifested the gods- or as he called them the Mediterranean Magic Men, if only because of how annoyed it made Zeus. Now everyone can see the chat that’s usually only visible to him and apparently it’s concerning. 

He doesn’t see how it’s an issue, Zeus has been silenced for the next hour and Hercules has been dying of laughter for the last three. Oh, wait, it might be from Mercury’s constant attempted flirting with Flash. …Or the fact they’re trying to convince him to commit a crime and he’s honestly down for doing so seeing as he’s a homeless ten year old who is down for getting clairvoyance and super speed for the next thirty minutes in exchange…

#prompts #dc #dcu #divine twitch chat #Billy has gone past panicking and is just *yep this might as well happen* #The MMM have somehow convinced half the league that Marvel was made from their magic and mortal blood a couple years ago exactly #“Why yes this is their funky magic creation child isn't he great we're still trying to get him to curse someone but he's still just a baby” #The league are all sobbing and freaking out because wtf why is Marvel now a- wait he came into existence 10 years old #What do you mean No please explain #Oh god the gods are ignoring them and bothering the poor baby marvel- #M-marvel why are you listening to them- DO NOT GO BACK TO EARTH JUST TO KICK A COP #SOMEBODY GRAB THE MINI MARVEL #How did this feral gremlin become Marvel?! #The MMM: Ah yes we're raising him so well look at how they grow :) #captain marvel #shazam #justice league #mediterranean magic men #Whenever the MMM talk or do something they're partially visible like colored ghost-mists lol #It's all over once they realize they can interact with the world again #Time to pick up their funky lil dude and go on a run through the watchtower #The champion of magic has to be pure of heart to deal with the gods' shenanigans

What brushes do you use?

i am sorry for the later reply i was out cold. this is not gona be a satesfying reply though. i just use... one square shaped boy.

you can easely make this one in PS by opening a 500x500px file and you either fill it compleatly in with black, or make it a vary slightly wonky square. (don't think it matters but it gives it your own handtouch) once you have you square you go to 'Edit' > 'Define Brush Preset' and you get the square boy in your brushes lybrary. I am sorry I don't know how how to create your own brushes in other drawing softwares.

I usually use the brush size 8px, 10px or 15px. and this boy has never failed me once! i sometimes try to make myself some other brushes to get a quicker workflow. but then i have to readjust the sizing and angles or i don't like how the shape looks and... i just stick to this one brush and call it a day. i do change settings though! Switching on Transfere + Opacity around or below 50% i make fur.

Add scatter effect + colour dynamics: i can like make quck freckles texture or in some cases like sand grain.

(if i lessen the distance between forms and the count on how many get scattered texture also works for stars, water droplets, atmospheric dust)

For details, or jewlery i like to make a seperate layer, adding an effect to it to get a "Contour Lineart".

i know this is barly (if even) a tutorial. so if there are more questions i would love to awser them. though i use photoshp (still). and i am just barly scratching and begining to learn and get comfortable with Clip Studio Paint. I will have to save my square boy and move it there but maybe i finally learn to use more then just one brush for once! and by the next time someone asks me "what brushes i use" i have an easyer time explaining because i just have to point at the CSP brush ones.

#chip!ask #photoshop #before anyone comes at me for using Adobe #listen 15 years ago they were eh... but not as catastrophic like they are today! #most of my colouring happens with lasso tool btw #and blush and gradiants with well... gradiant tool #but these wern't anons question

design for the track ‘fall for me’ by sleep token | whale fall | from here to eternity, caitlin doughty | midtnight mass, mike flanagan | the amber spyglass, philip pullman

#i was reading about this place will become your tomb and how they used a whale fall as the design for fall for me #and that instantly reminded me about from here to eternity #that book made me realize i want a natural burial #like just wrap me in a cloth and bury me in a hole in the ground and let nature consume me until there’s nothing left #and later that same day i rewatched episode 4 of midnight mass which has that amazing riley monologue about what happens after we die #AND THEN it got me thinking about this passage from his dark materials #that was probably the first time i came into contact with the idea of our atoms going back to the world when we die #little old 13 years old me read that and still thinks about it today #anyway #the whole idea of our bodies having a purpose in death #love that #sleep token has me constantly receiving psychic damage since i started listening to them about a month ago #sleep token #caitlin doughty #from here to eternity #midnight mass #his dark materials

Listening to the mgs peace walker tapes and then listening to the mgs V tapes has done irreparable damage to my brain

#so this happened WEEKS ago ok #and still it's #it's. #it is quite something #ok here's the thing #we know how Kaz and BB were like during pw #and then you have Paz saying stuff like 'Kaz and Big Boss came up with the idea' 'Kaz and Big Boss made this decision' and blablabla #it's all Kaz and BB doing stuff together and making plans and etcetcetc #and then you listen to the fucking mgs V tapes and it genuinely makes me crazy bc #Im pretty sure BB doesn't even say Kaz's name. At all. Not even once. #he doesn't ask how he's doing #he doesn't ask if he knows about the plan. what he thinks about it. nothing #and yeah maybe there wasn't time or whatever but to BB. that relationship that he had with Kaz? It's recent. #he's been in a coma for 9 years. to him running motherbase with Kaz is part of his most recent memories #and you don't get to hear him ask about Kaz #and then you get to Ocelot's reports and of course he calls him Miller instead of Kaz #and it feels SO distant and cold to talk about Kaz in this manner #and what truly makes me crazy is that BB never says 'Kaz' while you have ocelot and BB calling each other by their real names #and then. and then you have venom snake #who's constantly calling his name #Kaz?? Kaz! Kaz...... #INSANE #m(ysterious) g(ay) s(ex)

The doctrine of discovery is one of the core concepts used to justify colonialism, especially of the settler variety. This is what the Canadian Museum of Human Rights says about it:

The Doctrine of Discovery is a legal and religious concept that has been used for centuries to justify Christian colonial conquest. It advanced the idea that European peoples, culture and religion were superior to all others.

The doctrine of discovery comes from a series of declarations from the pope in the 1400s that suggested christianity and christian cultures were superior to all other religions and cultures, and basically said that christian europeans had the right to invade and claim land and resources from non-christian people, and also had the right to subjugate and convert those populations. It's literally at the very core of colonial history and the myth of white supremacy and christian supremacy.

When the pope was visiting Indigenous communities in canada last summer, more than an apology for the catholic church's role in residential schools, what people were asking for was the overturning of the doctrine of discovery. An apology is meaningless as long as that doctrine stands.

Today, the vatican formally rejected the doctrine of discovery. It's a symbolic gesture, sure. But it's still a sign that things are changing. Space was held for Indigenous voices, and the vatican of all places listened to them.

Obviously, there's still work to be done, and colonization didn't just suddenly end because of this announcement, but this is still huge news, and it feels like we're a tiny step closer to Land Back.

#even 5 years ago i dont think this would've been possible you know #so even tho it is largely symbolic it's a move in the right direction and something worth celebrating #also the fact the catholic church listened to the demands of Indigenous people and responded to them so quickly?? #yo @ canadian gov y'all are worse than the catholic church 🤡 🤡 how does that feel??? #y'all gonna speed up progress on those calls to action or ??? #no but honestly this is the kind of history i am happy to witness you know? #i truly never thought I'd see the day when the vatican said #'no actually we don't support this. the doctrine of discovery is wrong and we will not uphold it any longer' #doctrine of discovery #chritianity #history #indigenous #canada #links in the comments for reference #also just bc the doctrine was rejected doesn't mean reconciliation is done #the rcmp is currently actively invading Wet'suwet'en again to try and force through cgl's v illegal pipeline #this is a moment to celebrate yes #but it's not the end of the fight yet right #indigenous sovereignty is still being violated #land theft is still happening #and this doesn't mean that suddenly all of that is behind us

Why are people who look at comic books from a “critical real-world lens” so obsessed with identifying the one person who is “100% right”. That doesn’t even exist in the real world.

Lost Days wasn’t made to protest global issues. It is a comic book exploring fictional character Jason’s mental journey after being resurrected and regaining consciousness against his will and/or power. Now how dare this character, in his own story where he has his own personal objective, not go out of his way to make sure each individual child from the collective hundreds he saved from traffickers and the likes gets adopted into nice homes. Obviously we have to disregard any good he did or that he cares at all because all he did was kill the fucker at the top who was responsible. Winick also never fleshed out all 42 of the trafficked children into nuanced characters with their own thoughts and feelings which was apparently neglectful lol.

In regards to utrh, Idk what this person read but there were more drug dealers Jason didn’t kill than those he did. Not once did he ever say he wanted to eliminate the flow of drugs in the community. He took over the trade. Not to mention he explicitly stated control vs elimination is where his goals differed from Bruce’s pipe dream hence why he’s successful and Bruce is still failing. Obviously if you completely misunderstand the character’s motivations you’ll find issues that don’t exist.

People just don’t want stories to be about what they are about, huh.

#kelseethe #the dealers Jason killed met their fate because they either disobeyed him or were in his way. not because they sold drugs lol wtf #which that is obviously not a ‘😇’ thing but again who tf cares #it’s not like they were relief workers they were drug dealers. also this is a fictional story #anyway I think Jason typically not striking drug dealers and thieves in utrh demonstrates more forethought #than repeatedly throwing them in prison which will perpetuate the problem anyway #And doesn’t target the root either #Jason explicitly says he isn't trying to fix every single bad thing that can ever happen in the world. #because that isn’t feasible nor possible #no what he does is kill people who cause large amounts of immediate damage and that actually is a difference he can feasibly make #so why exactly would *Jason* being the one to forfeit his ideas be a demonstration of character growth #also #god forbid there be limitations to what Jason can do with the time and resources he has #And that he has his own plans and itinerary #because how dare he not properly fix every systemic/political issue in Russia Africa and the UK every other country he went to #nobody needs to ‘read theory’. I did that years ago in college this isn’t the same thing #And as for Gotham War … it feels like every new issue we win some we lose some #but also it’s funny that you’re saying ‘everyone pls listen to my rant & also ignore the recent comics that contradict what I’m saying’

i think everything started going downhill when apple removed the headphone jack from iphones.

#like remember when we could charge our phones and listen to music at the same time? #and we didn’t need to use a stupid dongle? #btw just looked it up this happened in 2016. at first i was like oh wow that’s not as long ago as i thought #it was 8 years ago.

oughh......

#laya plays dragon age #da2 #oc: liam hawke #this happened a bit ago already & i wanted to draw sth for it but idk if i will finish that #but i gotta yell abt them anyway because OGH. #i have a lot of emotions about this quest ok #bartrand was the perfect scapegoat he was perfect to direct all the rage and pain at all these years #years of imagining gleeful revenge while bartrand is gloating and laughing like an evil soulless bastard #and then you meet him and he is just. a pathetic husk of a man with barely any own will left #and whats worse. varric is so so torn up about it #varric. the guy who never makes anything about him and who will always handwave and joke when something hits too close to home #drops all efforts to be smart and is just. desperate. begs hawke to not kill his brother #and liam wants to want bartrand dead so bad. he wishes he could look him in the eye and enjoy taking his life #and he knows varric will listen to him if he insisted. he knows when it comes down it it varric will yield to his decision #but he sees this broken guy who is barely the villain he kept projecting onto him and he sees varric and he sees two doomed siblings #and knows what its like to lose your sibling to your own blade #and he cant do it #and he hates it so much. but he wont do it. #and its the reason why i cant decide who dealt the killing blow for bethany bc it makes this scene juicy in different ways #if varric kills bethy its equally wanting to spare each other their siblings blood on their hands #as it is taking some form of revenge (on liams part). we both killed each others siblings. now we are even #the revenge part would still be there if liam did the blow on bethany himself. you made me do that and now i will take bartrand for it #but its also much more i know what its like. i wont make go through that too #if varric killed bethy and then also bartrand it would be more #''its my fault she is dead. i will take the revenge she/you deserves if you tell me to even though it will hurt me #dunno. all good variations i will. have to rotate them in my head more #or maybe just never decide idk they can be in canon limbo forever #anyways thats it for shouting into the void about them for now it Will happen again

“so then what? you want jews to have no place to go?”

regardless of any peoples’ “having a place to go”, it should NOT be coming at the expense of people already living there. any ties, religious or otherwise, shouldn’t ever mean you have the ability to kick REAL, LIVING, BREATHING PEOPLE, WITH FAMILY AND MEMORY AND CULTURE out of their ANCESTRAL HOMES in favour of settling somewhere you have never lived. EVERY religion & culture should have access to their holy & historic places. liberation for palestinians & their land doesn’t mean a reverse in the roles of oppression. this is the coloniser’s fear; fear that the subjugated will call for revenge; an eye for an eye, tooth for a tooth. this fear justifies their genocide. genocide, for the “safety” of the oppressor. the solution to the oppression of a people is not to expedite them to a land you’d like a convenient ally in. the solution is to create a world that isn’t so violently hostile it creates the need for a “homeland”. a “homeland” that, no less, is hostile to an entire sector of the people it claims to be home for.

FREE PALESTINE 🇵🇸

#.txt #palestine #free palestine #israel #isreal #from the river to the sea palestine will be free #israel occupation #borne from a wildly frustrating argument with my father. “so the romans kicking out the jews 3000 years ago is less of an injustice than- #-whats happening today?” there is LIVING MEMORY. YOUNG AND LIVING MEMORY of the exile of palestinians from their own land by israel #comparing the two is in incredibly bad faith and intended to invalidate your call for liberation #but anyway. if i’ve got anything incorrect here don’t hesitate to reply or message me. it’s crucial i get this right #unless you’re gonna defend israel. i’ve listened to you and formed my own opinion; that you’re fucking disgusting #from the river to the sea #israel palestine conflict #palestine is a country

「A hundred years had passed. So, so much has changed in the world, but not as much to Kazukiー

And the golden vestiges of someone still donning an all too familiar scar, smiling on the back of his mind.」

#read tags #given how kazuki is...well he is immortal #i kinda wonder what would happen a long time after the post-series #100 years immediately popped to my head because i was listening to lyrico's kiseki no hana #everyone he knew on the island would be dead #:( #idk if kouyou is still alive #i mean most likely yeah but im not sure if he has the same blessing of eternity like kazuki #would make me fucking emotional if he doesnt #of course there are the mir children/core that keeps being born again over and over but theyre never the same person. yk #what if tatsumiya ended up sinking forever for good in the future #back to kazuki he probably had stopped aging and stuff like that (but still grows. aging =/= growing guys) #so he remained pretty much similar to how he look 100 years ago. just longer hair #i like to think he decides to grow out his hair so he keeps remembering soushi #soushi is technically still there in a way because he stays in kazukis memories #as sad as it is #bro im gonna fucking cry what if kazuki gradually forgets soushi #not in a moving on way but in a its been so long that his memories of him starts to slowly fade way #in the angstier scenario he starts forgetting soushi to the point of almost forgetting him completely #and hes traveling the world all alone again #for eternity... #(this considering kouyou doesn't have the eternity blessing) #FUCKING BAWLING #soukyuu no fafner #makabe kazuki #minashiro soushi #soukazu

#it actually makes me sick like physically ill how much praise is heaped onto goyishe american leftists #people who could not point to gaza on a map six months ago. whose knowledge of middle east history comes from outdated textbooks and twitte #for being anti imperial activists and well educated anti imperialists with all the right buzzwords and all the right opinions #meanwhile nothing i say will ever be good enough bc i'm jewish and palestinians are tokenized by people who care more about appearing #like someone who Listens to Palestinians as opposed to 1) doing anything material to help them (like donating money) #and 2) not spreading obvious misinformation. something that does material damage to the cause of liberation #AND further fuels the most insidious of zionist propaganda which relies on the antisemitism of ignorant western goys #this propaganda banks on their antisemitism bc it's that fucking reliable #every white western goy that harasses jews or spreads misinfo about jews or is straight up just racist towards random israeli immigrants #ppl living in the west like running coffee shops that are now having their windows smashed bc that what? supports palestinian liberation? #makes it that much easier for actual zionist propagandists to say 'see. this was never about imperialism. they want an excuse to harm you.' #'you are only safe with us' #i grew up in a cauldron of this kind of propaganda and i was playing on hard mode i got it from the orthodox #it took years of dutiful unlearning. of wrestling with some really difficult realities. of realizing that i'd been not only lied to #but information had been deliberately kept from me to keep me from knowing the true depths of the horror happening in gaza #i did not get the luxury of starting to care about this six months ago during a concerted effort to correct the record #i had to put in the effort to unlearn two decades of propaganda given to me so young i don't remember a time when i didn't know it #and i am by far not the only jew with this experience #i have put in way more effort to care about this than every white western goy with a megaphone posting palestinian flags on IG #but none of that matters bc i am a jew and for the last 5000+ years we don't get to decide how we're discussed or how we're remembered #never mind how many jewish voices (and yes! even israeli voices!) have been supporting liberation efforts in palestine for years. #who've done an amazing job reaching more people who need help seeing through the propaganda they were raised on #i can only be a token who speaks only in protest chants or i can be an evil zionist. the anti imperial work doesn't matter. #bc anti imperial work is hard and none of them actually want to do it they just want the protest photos #anyway this is why i don't discuss this on the piss on the poor website. tbh i don't trust y'all
