jack harkness' arc is so fucking insane honestly... the guy is literally comic relief most of the time just out there throwing dirty jokes and winking at everything that moves, meanwhile his canon storyline is that his blond lady friend who was heartbroken at seeing him die absorbed The Time Vortex - that no human should ever absorb - which gave her supernatural powers that made her able to bring him back before she had to be saved BUT... she could not control those powers properly so she brought him back permanently and so he can no longer die but he keeps aging ! and he's aware of that contradiction and he asks the only other seemingly immortal being he knows about it in a way that makes it obvious that he's really fucking worried about it but that being looks him in the eyes and admits he fears what he has become and tells him he honestly has no idea what's gonna happen to him so he just has to like.. fake smile and keep on going. and then what that alien doesn't tell him is that he knows he's gonna live for another 5 BILLION YEARS and age into something entirely unrecognizable to anyone in the universe before he is finally allowed to die. like wow. that sure is the fucking comic relief right there !

#THAT SURE ISN'T PEAK EXISTENTIAL HORROR #I think the beauty of the original RTD era is that it managed to tell THEE worst most heartbreaking stories while somehow maintaining #an aura of fun and sillyness... truly an impressive accomplishment #doctor who #jack harkness #bee tries to talk #rose tyler #tenth doctor

Cleo: Bdubs is going to stick with his alliance, because that's what he always does when the chips are down. Bdubs is loyal, he pretends he's not because he likes *you* (looking at Etho) to do things for him.

CLEO!! Thank you for your takes!! I'll be chewing on them forever

#zombiecleo #bdoubleo100 #ethoslab #cleo #bdubs #etho #secret life smp #im just SAYING #so much sympathy for bdubs and i do get it but actually his ideal world is one of perfect alliance #so he can maintain his loyalty #and sure hed never attack etho but hed sure trap his base. use his resources. stand on the other side of the alliance divide #im not saying hes wrong btw and i think its fun to have different and opposing takes #but cleo said something here and im chewing on it

Biggie and Smalls. Fatboy and Slim. Bert and Ernie. Fanboy and Chum Chum.

Bonus: GATTAI!!!!!

#pixel art #gurren lagann #ttgl #this gurren lagann escapes the bounds of the 64x64 canvases I've been using for these #it's an enjoyable size to work in- enough to fit details while still maintaining the fun of working within the restrictions of a small scal #but wow what a difference that extra leg room does make- this GL looks miles better than my first one #granted more practice could certainly be a part of that too #and also i think working on gurren and lagann separately helped me focus more on making sure they each looked right #alli.art

#Go easy on me this is the first time I've ever done this. #Harry being unable to maintain eye contact with literally anyone he hasn't soul gazed with... #As rough as I'm sure that is- it makes for some really fun animating potential. Maybe. I don't know! I don't know what I'm doing. <3 #The Dresden Files #art #fanart #animate #animation #gif #jim butcher #Also this insane low quality makes this 100000% better! So cool.

[witch-unhinged]

literally in awe (and I'm not being sarcastic) of the people who post unpopular stories on AO3, get like 3 kudos total, and continue to dutifully publish chapter after chapter. they live on a plane of unbothered and self-assured existence that I can only dream of

#I want to write for myself and I sort of do but like #the validation of it all is 3/4 of the reason I put in so much effort #not sure I would maintain this level of work just for fun if no one else was vibing with it #do i really like writing or was i just primed as a child to build my self worth out of other people's positive feedback #(it's both)

The funniest part is that as much as I advocate for his murdering it's like. I am not at all against Jason stopping that shit altogether and actually Getting Help and shelving Red Hood forever if it's done right it's just that. It's not going to be done right. Someone can try sure by all means I'd still read the comic it's just not something I'm rooting for right now.

Cause well at this point murderer or otherwise he is owed some apologies LMAO and if reforming looks like how it already kinda looks i.e. pretending he's basically over everything so he can seamlessly join the Batfamily lineup as the "still kind of edgy one" that no one will ever fully trust again without any serious acknowledgement of how horribly catastrophically hurt he is. Well I don't want that at all that sucks. Especially if it doesn't feel like he came to the decision on his own. So in that case I'd rather he be more of an antagonist and see if anyone can do something interesting with that. Reforming for him in theory should NOT be turning Red Hood into a hero imo it should be separating Red Hood from Jason entirely bc the "Red Hood" identity is in itself representative of his grief + hurt + anger + so on and I don't really believe he can move past any of that so long as he keeps putting the helmet on. Or the hood. Or whatever he's wearing these days. But literally no one is ever going to let him put it down because Everybody Loves The Red Hood soooo... Yeah. Net 0 information here.

#Like I always say I prefer him when hes Murdery but its like. Well the red hood character is fun to watch first of all obviously or else #he wouldnt be popular BUT its more like... #The difference between Hyperviolence Jason and Thin-ice Batfam Jason is that neither of them are getting their traumas addressed in #a serious way but at least one of them gets to maintain some dignity and self respect. LMAO. #Im being too hard on batfam Jason I'm sure I know he stands up for himself but as previously discussed he also just keeps crawling back #every time he gets kicked so. Yeah. #dc

he's on steroids???

#no he tried one cycle and didn't think it was worth it so he stopped #as is every gym bro's right skjfksd #but he was already lifting he just needed a boost to be able to put on weight quicker #and once he did gain weight he realized he didn't need any help reaching his other goals #so yeah don't worry #and yes i did do a deep dive into casual steroid use among men in their 20s #i made sure his stats are possible to maintain at a natural level given his age/height/experience etc #sometimes research is fun for research's sake lmao #asks #anonymous #brandi answers #nonsims #body image tw

Song of the Day: February 22

“Damn!” by Patent Pending

#song of the day #so peppy this one. fun to sing but I have to work to maintain the right speed because it just sounds wrong at my normal relaxed tempo #it's an earworm for sure but an inoffensive one and I do like their delivery. bouncy bright quick and fairly clever #'if you're the letter I'm the envelope / seal me with a kiss so I can hold you close / send us off to Paris or to Tokyo #or London in the fall cause baby long as I'm with you it doesn't matter at all' #very fun rhythm. the way they say 'Tokyo' gets me moving my head every time

[ghoul-haunted]

anyway. I'm not apologizing for it, but man I wish I could talk about something else besides my comics. unfortunately, the only thing holding me together is a very worn out piece of tape and the fact that the sequel to a game I love is coming out this week. it will continue to happen. maybe

#its only so fun like at some point i have to actually just buckle up and fuckin draw it #you know what i mean. 'oh look this panel is going to be so COOL the way sulla tells them all to BEHAVE like they're all dogs' #like okay sure but you cannot telepathically imprint the right shade of blue into someone's mind through a text post. just draw it #anyway im not joking abt holding it together for AW2 like i am Not vibing with the concept of existing in any form right now #but i WILL continue to maintain a physical presence because i NEED to see someone playthrough that game. i HAVE to. i have been #waiting OVER A DECADE

suddenly seeing parallels between kumar and medicine pocket

#wonderful day to be a kaalaa baunaa x medicine pocket shipper #you know the difference between kumar and mp #kumar did the things she did out of vengeance — a cause — a purpose #and a desire to destroy others or oneself #mp does the insane shit they do because its FUN #because they have the capabilities to bear it #essentially because they can #considering their dialogue and hobby; they definitely hold life at a high value #perhaps careless #but honest #both defo insane and self-concerned #just in different flavors #hence why i think shipping kb x mp is either an angst abyss or healing journey #mp is smart and emotionally mature despite their mad kid behavior #but yes definitely a victim of impulse and chaotic practices #meanwhile kaalaa baunaa is a woman of method and routine #in research or in life #these two are kind of opposites... #mp shows a petty and nasty front but behind it lies a surprisingly mature and insightful self #kb maintains monumental composure and mysterious but friendly front #although inside i am sure many many things eat away at her #especially kumar #oh ESPECIALLY kumar #she probably acts all cool and level-headed saying things like “life goes on” #she starts to fail to follow her own philosophies and drown herself in work #because staying still will only make the memories of kumar manifest louder #she relies on her routines for comfort; whats always there and always will be #but shes tiring herself out because she cannot entirely confront the idea that kumar is gone #because kumar's presence IS a part of her routine — her methods — course — orbit #mp is like a replacement — better or worse? fuck around n find out

overcrowded used book stores with haphazard piles instead of real organization are arbiters of fate. they will provide you with the right books at the right time if you allow them to

#dan.txt #poorly maintained antique stores have this ability as well #are fate and signs and magic real? not sure! fun to cope with disorder by thinking that me and this horror novel were Fated To Meet

I have no idea why but out of all the fanart I've ever drawn my genshin stuff for some reason stays the most consistent & I literally can't figure out why

#its not even something im consciously trying to accomplish either i rarely ever think about trying to maintain a consistent style #my two priorities when i draw are always 1) have fun and 2) make it look pretty . art style ''consistency'' is negligible in the end #and something thst just happens naturally as a result of you learning yo draw more things #hence why i hate the idea of consistency tk begin with its more of a marketing tool for yourself than anything #But anyways enough of my tangent. i think it is so weird that my genshin art looks like it was all actually drawn by the same person #my orv art is so 😭😭😭 its everywhere help #though that is partly bc i like experimenting more w orv the novel provides a vast amt of material to work w #if i had to actually logic out a reason behind my genshin art staying consistent then id say its probably smth im just doing subconsciously #since all my genshin stuff is quarantined here in the first place #Worried face. im pretty sure genshin is now the media property ive drawn the Most fanart of #next to hxh. Worried face

one thing abt these movies is that shinya tsukamoto will sit in a body of water

#^ he is so pretty btw. #original nonsense #image described #my movie review is that.... hmm... #i think... i was not as interested as the 1st movie... but i also think i read the plot of the 3rd movie and kept thinking i had read this #one's plot so i kept expecting things to happen that didnt. so that was confusing. #the vibes were very different thats for sure. and i know it didnt like the 1st one when i watched it but i kind of had a change #of mind as i kept thinking about it so who knows... #i did REALLY like the coloured lighting it was SO pretty and swag. #definitely a strength it has over the 1st one because.... that was black n white obviously. which is also cool ::-] #i really like the music too obviously AHEE HEE i liked listening to the soundtrack before i watched this so it was fun #to be able to recognize the songs. #this one didnt have the weird homoeroticism of the 1st one which makes sense in retrospect #but i was kind of missing his freak behaviour u__u #the first one was really freaky and uncomfortable which i think is why it is so memorable. #and this one was Not as Freaky but maintained a lot of the spirit of Weird Metal Gore Body Horror Etc And Also Tomorowo #Taguchi Is There. #OKAY MY MOVIE THOUGHTS BYE

#re: fandom racism it is......idk interesting to see how much people want it to be an easy thing #check these boxes do these things and you're not racist #cling to the idea of being a Good White Person or Not Racist like it's an identity #where people care more about retaining those things than actively deconstructing biases and doing the work #being antiracist isn't something you ever stop doing for any of us #it's a regular process of thinking critically about the things we say and write and believe #checking yourself realizing any of us are prone to saying something racist without realizing it #it's the society we've grown up in and that doesn't mean living in guilt it means being aware of that #thinking about it #not just waiting for a poc to have to bring up something and trying to excuse it away w good intentions #i am sure most people have good intentions but they often don't match the impact #ask any poc in fandom and we will tell you the amount of things we swallow and shut up about #to 'keep the peace' #it is exhausting and it would be really nice not to have to do that but that can only really happen if people are willing #to examine biases to think about their words carefully to have these conversations instead of shoving everything under the rug #it is work to maintain spaces like these and ensure they aren't racist and i just wish more people wanted to do that work #i'm sorry that that's not a fun or nice answer that this is lifelong but that is what it is #delete later
