#the even unit

Second win for Wish! Show Champion. Encore.

That's good, that's good.

First of all, you have yet another example of loud fans being proven wrong. Not many people watched Lastart, some old NCTzens were opposing the latest addition, there was negativity towards the unit. SM is an old company with accumulated knowledge in pushing their product though.

Secondly, brand recognition works both ways. There will be young k-pop fans who will get to know 127, Dream and WayV because of Wish. It's the way many of us get to know Kangta, Kyuhyun, and other older SM artists.

Thirdly, Wish's success means BoA's success. I don't know how much she really contributes to the creative and production side of things, but she is the official producer, her name is on the box. And we need SM artists to have weight and influence within the company, to prove they can transition to producers, CEOs, stage directors. BoA favours Taeyong, likes Doyoung.

Fourthly, Wish will keep the brand name in Japan while 127 is away. And if Neo centre stays profitable, there will be less meddling from the higher ups. More creative and decision freedom for staff and neos.

I once had a landlord offhandedly mention that his mother had set this house on fire before. He and his wife lived on the first floor, and i rented the third.

Apparently his mom didn’t like his wife. So she set their house on fire. The house i was living in.

He assured me that everything was fine now and that this was years ago, just kinda laughed, smiled, and said ‘You know how moms are’

Yes. I know how moms are. I know how fucked up moms are as well. I have known many fucked up moms and fellow children of fucked up moms.

Attempted murder through arson is not typical mom behavior, even for a fucked up abusive mom

Oh, and his mother lived next door 🙃

So does he, Gallagher.

#honkai star rail #hsr blade #gallagher #i based this off of how many times i used funny soda man to help be a healer with his poppin soda pop in SU #and then blade constantly just being blade as usual #its normally him saying unnecessary to my actual healer but #i kept forgetting gallagher heals and i kept healing when i didnt even need to so TECHNICALLY yeah it was unnecessary #but the amount of times blade was the recipient...... #i cant use like most of my newer units in story bc i cant ascend or i run out of leveling mats so i just #get them and toss them into simulated universe for funsies cause i can match their levels better #so thats where i tossed gallagher and he is genuinely fun to play as ? like i love his punches and kicks to start the battle #funny soda man is funny (to me) and im really behind in plot still #but last time i tried to play it on my laptop and got a kickass cutscene my laptop lagged and i couldnt even see it RIP to me #so now that its like ... me trying to play it on desktop ? #i mostly get on desktop for comms and if i do much else i feel like im slacking off even if i would take a break anyway #one day i can play more story plot stuff and actually meet the funny guys #also in case you know me for Not Having Boys in HSR i need to point out #i did pull Gallagher however same 10 pull got a 4 star girl copy for someone i never use and she is at e4 now cool #and i didnt even think of the irony as i started this i just like drawing blade and i wanted to draw gallagher #so when i already had the dialogue planned and am drawing i was like OH WAIT haha im funnier than i thought #(no i am not but we can pretend)

An old Alyx drawing I decided to revamp and go a little crazy with textures…..can you tell I got a bit overzealous. Anyway the concept was that Eli keeps this photo of his daughter around so it’s gotten a bit crumpled and worn.

The only reason I finished this drawing way back was thanks to a generous commissioner (@ nimorp on twitter! ) so I’m eternally grateful for that. Anyway hope you like it Vance nation…..I’m officially out of old art to lazily repost here…though I put genuine effort into updating this piece!! Enjoy

I’ve been highly confused as to why Michael “deeply openly thirsting on Twitter about David Tennant for half a decade” Sheen is half-in half-out the closet but apparently Wales is absurdly homophobic lmao what the fuck how is a country the size of New Jersey that much of a hater bruh we out number the shit out of you

#i thought googling ‘how to say gay’ in welsh would be funny but it just made me sad #i knew the uk in general had a problem with trans people but WOW it’s fucked up in wales like. there are 8 of you what are you doing #i feel bad now lmao #wales #my weird welsh hyperfixation has taken me places let me tell you #cymru #homophobia #gay #lgbt #lgbtqia #good omens #bbc staged #michael sheen #i thought he was just ‘oh i’m quiet about my personal life’ but that’s not even true like my man’s probably actually scared #what a fuckass country lmao awesome #uk politics #united kingdom #david tennant #what is it with this tiny ass island taking over the world and being shitty lmao and this is coming from an american #bisexual #<- bisexual gang gang feel bad you fuckin haters lol #yes the whole world is homophobic i know etc but it’s like outrageously bad out there apparently #stay mad that i think nationalism is dumb ‘how dare you ever have an opinion you american’ #you’re white you are not going to like where the power + privilege argument inevitably goes

BREAKING NEWS!!! Local idiot ghost absolutely blown away when boyfriend gives him a nickname for the first time, more info after this broadcast.

Bonus pet-name edition:

(Yeah I know it's ooc for grovyle to EVER use the term "babe" but lets go ahead and assume he's done it accidentally a few times rather than intentionally. He's deeply in love with the dumb ghostman, ok. Sometimes it just slips out.)

Dusknoir is still recovering from hearing it. And when he finally calls grovyle "love" himself on accident a few days later, he falls deathly ill for two weeks cause his body couldn't handle the aftermath and started rapidly shutting down on a molecular level.

#dusknoir he is dying pls for the love of god just give him the heal seed already #i headcanon that grovyle starts to call dusknoir just “noir” simply because it's less effort but dusknoir is legitimately touched by it #he's never had a nickname before so he cried happy tears for only 2 hours after this interaction #celebi thinks noir's drama over the entire thing is very funny so she starts calling him “beloved” even more and he has a meltdown #and dusknoir being a literal functional storage unit is my favorite thing he is so good at HOLDING stuff for his BF and GF #he carries water bottles and snacks for them like a total mom when they go exploring #(he got the habit after hanging out w/ echo and sora. those are his kids so of course he's gonna have treats!!!) #what's in the void you ask??? who knows probably a pocket universe or the elusive pmd2 remake #i had way too much fun drawing this is it obvious? #and i really like the new brush i've been using lately so i'm happy #also first comic i put decent effort into!!!! yay #actaeonshipping #future trio #dusknoir #grovyle #celebi #pmd #pmd2 #pmd eos #explorers of sky #my art #tw blood

I'm kind of afraid to praise SM stylists in fear Doyoung will draw the short straw, and we'll have a repeat of DJJ (the pain! Kim Baldie, please, don't abandon your Kim brother during such an important time)... still, have to say Tae's and Wish' outfits were all good. And finally backdancers got justice and nice clothes as well.

When it comes to Wish I didn't like only the cupid school outfits (the idea is OK, it's the proportion of details, the execution). However, they probably have no relation to the stylist. Were ordered separately.

Can't even say anything against frills and lace. They are cupids, it fits.

I got so freaking excited seeing the trailer for "The Wild Robot", so naturally some fanart was in order! I didn't expect the painting to look so oily and have so many softer edges, but I still think it came out really nice and was good practice! Colored pencil really has helped me figure out a personal painting process, as here I actually used a similar layering technique as when I work in colored pencil.

Aside from that though, I haven't read the books yet (though I plan to after I see the film) but this movie looks like it's gonna hit so many of my favorite tropes and features when it comes to fiction and animated stories, including: non-human protagonists (and both of my favorite kinds, animals and robots!), stylized visuals, robot learning to be more than just their programming yet still maintaining their original robot skills and behavior to a degree, robot with emotions and unique ways of showing it, character in the wilds adapting by studying the animals, post-industrial-level technology existing in harmony with nature and the wilds rather than being portrayed as inherently harmful to nature and therefore inherently wrong to make (this is a big one for me), the odd duo, the gentle giant, a character finding belonging in an unexpected environment, just general wonder for the beauty of the wilds, and probably other things that'll come to me as I understand this story more.

But even beyond that, I just had to draw Roz because she's so freaking cute! Like, even excluding the adorable way she mimics the animals or glows when happy or how her "eyelids" give her more facial variation, in design alone she's so round and sweet looking! And somehow her being big and bulky to juxtapose her kindness with an strong and imposing stature just makes it even better! I love characters who are large and intimidating at first glance but total softies on the inside. Brightbill's definitely in good hands!

If the film holds up and Roz also has a clear and entertaining personality beyond just being curious and caring, there's a 60% chance that come September she'll become my new robot blorbo (roblorbo?), up there with C-3PO, Wall-E, and Five Pebbles!

Also, another version of the sketches from when they were just the lines for comparison!

Genuinely having a hard time drawing and writing because the heat is making me sluggish and nauseous. Cries and yells because I have so many Ruin thoughts and art ideas

#we dont have central air in this house and all i have is a window unit #and the power has been struggling because of overuse so it's gone out here and there #so the house is just cooking #cant go outside or drive either because that cooks even more #i know we're in a heat wave crisis but man #sara shush

[elbiotipo]

The Florida Republican legislator who praised Javier Milei and then praised Argentina with the straight up nazi thinking of "one race, one culture, one religion", which is not only Nazi propaganda but a complete and absolute lie, really puts into perspective the whole "ARGENTINA IS WHITE XDXDXDXDDX" memes anglos have been spreading uncritically like it's just a funny joke. It's not an insult, it's an ASPIRATION for them. They WANT to be the Nazi Argentina which only exists in their heads and memes.

They had so much fun calling us nazis and there you have it, straight up white supremacists in their politics praising and supporting our far right, which has also been funded by US "think-tanks" such as the Atlas Network. THE CALL IS COMING FROM INSIDE THE HOUSE, YANQUI. YOUR COUNTRY IS THE ONE FULL OF NAZIS, YOU HAVE THEM IN YOUR GOVERMENT, IN YOUR POLICE, IN YOUR MILITARY.

#cosas mias #argentina #united states #fascism #there is no way to define this otherwise #it's straight up nazis and trust me I'm the one who says 'oh we should be careful about calling everyting nazi otherwise it loses meaning' #this is nazism. right there in Florida. #while here in Argentina we have long banned nazi speech and symbols and even arrest those who have it you have this shit #hacete cargo yanqui #política

Still kind of in awe about the three complete collections of 15-year-old, ecchi battle manga Rosario + Vampire hanging around around the Natick MA Newbury Comics.

What are the market forces that would lead them to ship all those complete collections to one store in Massachusetts. Who in Massachusetts is so fond of Tsukune and Moka's adventures that they would drop $200 on the collectors box set? And are there three of such people?

In the greater Natick area?

#manga #massachusetts #rosario + vampire #I have this reaction to most niche anime merch in the united states #24 volumes for 185 in a collectors box isn't even that bad #I didn't know if there was an r and v fandom in the usa never heard anyone talk about it in school
