Star Wars according to my little:

Marth Mader is a bad guy. He has a red sword. See his helmet mask?

Smorm troopers help Marth Mader

They don’t like the good guys. Cuz they’re BAD.

That’s Baby Yoda. Not GooGoo. His name Baby Yoda. That guy with his helmet is his Daddy. He looks like Marth Mader helmet but he’s a good guy. Maybe he just like pretend.

Obi-Wan is good guy. He doesn’t like Marth Mader. Does he have a sword?

There’s robot guys. I think some bad guys have robot guys. Maybe are Smorm troopers are robot guys?

Spaceships fly like this: shOOKOOOM!!! shoom shOOooM!

Day 16 of (Twitter) Stickmintober: Toppat Heist

Headcanon: When training children born into the clan a popular form of training is to take the little kids out on small heists with a Toppat or two supervising. They usually target stores that kids want such as game stores, candy stores, and toy stores to encourage wanting to steal. They can have whatever they successfully take.

I got started on this one really late today. Initially I was going to draw them robbing a toy store but I had no time.

These kids are savages

Normally, I find kids in BLs to be annoying or meant solely as a plot device to demonstrate the protagonist's kind heart (example: A Tale of a Thousand Stars - eighty million kids, all with names yet...what were they?), but 2022 is seeing the rise in the next wave of "the kids are alright"

*I'll keep adding to this list as the kids get more vicious*

Yoo Ha from To My Star 2

She told Seo Joon to shut up. She told Ji Woo he was a coward who avoids feeling anything real. She told her mom to get her butt home. She side-eyed Sung Yoon every time she tried crying over Ji Woo. She respected our CEO Pil Hyun the second he complimented her. She threatened this little snitch with poison. All she really wanted was her hair done properly and realized quickly that none of the adults surrounding her were capable of such a responsibility.

TLDR - She loves chicken and will hide all day in a small space just to prove a point. Savage Level - 10/10

Ling Ling from Plus & Minus

She wasn't talking trash about her dad. She was only telling facts: he doesn't have friends, he doesn't want to make friends, he spends all day at work, he doesn't take care of himself, he isn't adventurous, and he certainly isn't cool enough to snag a superstar like Yuki, so of course she assumed Yuki had to owe her dad money for him to be hanging out with her random-dude-on-the-street father. She loves her dad, but she pushed him to acknowledge that Yuki was out of his league ONLY because he wouldn't step up to the plate (baseball puns intended) and hit it...out of the park.

TLDR - She's iffy on desserts but will shame you for exhibiting B-plot energy when you're clearly the main character of this story.

Savage Level - 7.5/10

Random Kid from Cupid's Last Wish

Win yelled at everyone! Win yelled all the time! Win was angry the whole series! He was aggressive, stubborn, bossy, and downright mean especially to Korn, but everyone walked on eggshells around him, except this kid. Win rudely ate food (coconut pancake? sticky rice? someone help me out!) in front of the kid and told the kid to buy his own, so when Win needed his help, the kid made sure to give Win back exactly what he'd been giving - attitude. Once payback was served, this kid walked away with not one, not two, but THREE of these babies while being as unhelpful as possible.

TLDR - He'll take all the food items, while reminding you that Google is your friend, not him.

Savage Level - 9/10

My son (9) just asked me

If I know The Pixies (band)

As he put on “This Monkey’s Gone To Heaven.”

#raising them right #if all they get from me #is a deep love #for early 90’s alt rock #then I will have done what I set out to do #as a Millenial parent #✊🏻 #pixies #the pixies

Just shared the original Willow with my 9 and 12 year-old nephews. It's been a few years since I've seen it. Talk about coming home. I think I was 8 or 9 when I first saw it, and it shaped my whole view of storytelling. No wonder I like long hair on guys and redheads and curly hair. Lol. And enemies to lovers. And the weak inspiring the strong. What a great film.

My kids have asked to watch The Prince of Egypt three times over the last two days, and I can't even pretend that I don't like it.

I’ve gone from going to bed saying “What the…” to “Namaste All Day” quotes.

Yes, my last name is Speed, yes my kids run (Fast, very fast. For pleasure), and yes, sometimes it takes a spreadsheet to keep everything going.

I have lots of hustle. From keeping up with my adult and teen kids, keeping up in life with a small business, keeping up with society, health, friends, advice and all the creative random ideas that goes through my mind, all while practicing mindfulness and keeping my sense of humor… my hustle is a lot to keep up with. But don’t worry, keeping things Up To Speed is never not insightful or ridiculous. Maybe both at the same time?

Watch, listen, read about how things are on pointe and up to me.

I figured letting this fella hang out in my tavern wouldn’t be a problem, until a were-creature killed someone outside. He ran out to see what was going on, resurrected the victim, and they killed the were-creature. 

The victim then dragged their shattered broken body down 14 flights of stairs to the hospital and slept for a month. Before miraculously turning into a giant lizard for 15 minutes, re-transforming, and being fit as a fiddle.

I had to politely ask him and his new friends to leave.

Interaction with my almost 7 year old kid-

Me: Hello there.

Offspring: GENERAL KENOBI, you are a bold one

Also-

*standing at the top of the stairs*

Offspring - ITS OVER, MOTHER, I HAVE THE HIGH GROUND.

Zionists want you to conflate Judaism and Zionism. Zionists want you to believe that Judaism cannot exist without Zionism and that all Jews are Zionists. Zionism would have Jews believe that a Jewish state is the only way that they can be safe from antisemitism and will point to any instance of antisemitism as proof that Zionism is the solution- so Zionism wants gentiles to be antisemitic in their support of Palestine. They want you to conflate all Jews with Zionism and the state of Israel, and they want you to treat all Jews regardless of political affiliation as the face of Israel. Antizionist Jews exist, and incidences of antisemitism ostensibly acting against Zionism will not help dismantle the forces propping Zionism up.

Don't do their work for them.

#red rambles #viva palestina #antizionism #i haven't actually seen a lot of antisemitism personally. not recently anyway. but that's more a feature of me not following antisemites #i DO however see a lot of people talking about the people they're seeing throw their support behind antisemites using palestine #as an excuse to conflate all jews with israel #and i cannot stress enough that that is literally what israel and zionist forces abroad WANT. #i am jewish. my entire family is jewish. i want to see palestine free. and i have SEEN how the jewish community gets conflated with israel #both from the inside and out #and i am dead serious when i say that every time someone is antisemitic it strengthens the conviction from people abroad #that it's a terrible sad situation but there's 'no other choice' #if you're being antisemitic you are doing the enemy's work for them. Stop it. #like... look. i am putting this in the tags bc im talking in the tags but i mean this. I do not give a single flying fuck if you personally #are a giant raging antisemite at the moment. Your personal beliefs are your problem and not mine. I do not fucking care. But if you are #being openly and loudly antisemitic *in your support of palestine* you are absolutely not fucking helping. I am so dead serious right now #if you want to raise awareness and you're being antisemitic because of deep held beliefs or whatever i want you to look around and read the #fucking room. Do you understand how much of Israel's international support comes from the idea that they are the only country where jews ar #safe from antisemitism? do you see how every time palestine comes up people point at incidences of antisemitism in anti-genocide actions to #discredit the entire movement? do you not understand how your actions are cutting the movement down at the knees? #i'm jewish and proud of it. i don't like antisemitism. but there's a genocide on and i'd rather work against it than quibble over who i #work alongside. i dont fucking care. you can be as antisemitic as you like in private. stop fucking the movement up. #there are bigger things to worry about here. if i can put aside my own concerns as to who i'm talking to you can hold your tongue #and fight the good fight instead of handing weapons to the people who are trying to fucking flatten gaza.

I really like that they made Jor-El speak Kryptonian and Clark unable to understand him. The whole "aliens speak English" thing that happens in every goddamn media has bothered me all my life. Ik sometimes Clark just gets zapped in the brain for insta-second language but that always felt like a cheap shortcut.

Jor-El had a lot on his mind when he set up that magic spaceship okay. The world was ending and he was trying to do as much as he could before time ran out so he could be there for his son. He was rushing. He likely didn't consider Kal would be raised with a whole different language and not know any Kryptonian nor have anyone to teach him.

#my adventures with superman #two talks #he still might get zapped with kryptonian but at least it wasn't immediate #let there be a language barrier #it hits home so hard too bc i barely speak my mom's language and can't really talk to my family members bc of iz #it* #that's what being raised on a different planet IS! It's isolating and sad bc that's your FAMILY and you can't even understand them #fucking love superman #clark is so close and yet so far bc everything he craves to know about himself is Right There #but he doesn't speak the language of his own people and has no way to learn #it's heartbreaking and i'm so fucking here for it

-slamming bolt upright in a cold sweat- what do you mean verbal contracts cleo. what do you MEAN verbal contracts cleo. artists if you're doing commercial work you're A) charging much higher rates and B) making them SIGN A CONTRACT, right? right? you understand why that's VITAL, right? why having a written contract is VITAL for commercial work? you understand? you make them sign a written contract? please if you go looking in proper artist/graphic design circles i'm sure you can find a basic form that's legal in your locality and doesn't require you talk to a lawyer but if you're doing commercial work you're MAKING THEM SIGN A CONTRACT RIGHT--

#stream liveblogging #sorry someone in a chat in my discord mentioned cleo said they were using verbal contracts and my raised-by-lawyers self sat bolt upright #artists: you can get away with just an email chain with a noncommercial commission #but if you're doing someone's branding/merch/commercial work #you've both GOTTA charge WAAAAY more #and you've GOTTA have a contract #and you've GOTTA check out the rights stuff (hint: you aren't giving them perpetual rights to the design unless you're charging out the ass #i'm not an artist or a lawyer so i don't know the exact details of how this should go down but #ohhhhhhh my god. #anyway this isn't supposed to be discourse i am certain basically every youtuber does this. unfortunately. #and i don't BLAME the ones who have because they just probably hadn't realized/assumed the people they were commissioning would know #but i'm just losing my marbles for a moment don't mind me. #oh my god. #ANYWAY BACK TO MY NORMAL SCHEDULED POSTS--.

Guys, Hermes told them where to go to find the entrance of the underworld, and probably told them about Crusty, of course they know who he is, literally chill

#like yeah that scene wasn't as satisfying as it could've been #and I wish they had kept the doa scene instead #but y'all need to stop acting like these kids #WHO WERE RAISED AT CAMP(or taught by his mom in Percy's case) AND WERE TAUGHT ALL THESE MYTHS TO PROTECT THEM #can't be smart and know whats going on sometimes #they didn’t get Echidna right away #and the lotus hotel is another example of someone telling them the info beforehand(ares) #like chill fr #pjo tv show #pjo series #pjo spoilers #percy jackson #percy jackon and the olympians
