#yknow the kind of things you just get used to

I think this shitshow with Toshiro stems from the trend of people INSISTING that interpersonal conflict must be a moral failing. Like I think there's something to be said about how people afford so much less patience to people who are autistic in the "wrong" ways, but also Laios and Toshiro just clash on a fundamental level that has nothing to do with that. Hell, you could read Toshiro as autistic as well. People related to Laios' side of the argument but instead of getting any nuance out of it they started projecting their experiences with ableist people onto Toshiro.

AGREE AGREE AGREE. i think that Fandom Brain gets people very used to thinking of conflicts in terms of "who is the bad guy and who is the good guy", so when they encounter a more nuanced conflict they don't really know what to do. i don't think toshiro is a bad person at all, in his conflict with laios he's just exhausted and starving and has been pushed to the limit and from his perspective, laios doesn't even seem that emotionally affected by the situation. i don't think what he said was right and it was pretty cruel, but i don't think he's a villain or deserves to be permanently hated as a character just bc he fucked up this time lol

also yeah you could definitely read him as autistic, and i think that highlights an issue in the autistic community in general bc like....... a lot of autistic people have conflicting needs which can lead to conflict between them/make them unable to stand being around each other. and it's not because either of them are neurotypical or bad people, they're just incompatible. like autistic people who loudly stim vocally and autistic people who meltdown when they have to be around loud noises, for example. it doesn't mean either of them is bad or not autistic, just that they have conflicting needs

i 100% agree with the last part too. i disliked toshiro at first myself bc i had been (and still do ngl) projecting onto laios hard and the conflict they had reminded me of times when people have been mean or angry at me irl for social blunders i've made unintentionally, or when someone i thought liked me/was my friend turned out to actually hate me. it's a common experience for autistic people and that scene resonates with that! but i think it also helps to take a step back from projecting our own traumatic experiences onto the scene and just look at it objectively. laios isn't perfect either and he's the one who actually starts the physical fight by slapping toshiro (i feel like i don't see many people mention this lol). i feel super bad for him in that scene but he's not a perfect victim and has done things wrong himself too

as an autistic person i've also been in situations where i can relate to toshiro too lol, like where someone is overly physically and emotionally familiar with me when we don't know each other well and i've wanted them to back off but haven't been sure how to say it without hurting their feelings. this kind of conflict is far from just being a "neurotypical vs neurodivergent" thing as a lot of people portray it in the fandom

idk i just wish people would think a little more deeply about the scene and put their own emotions and experiences aside to instead consider the conflict with the added context of the individual characters and their respective cultures + the situation they're in. people don't have to like toshiro but i wish they wouldn't paint him as a villain or make up awful shit about him just to justify their feelings when he isn't even that bad of a dude in canon yknow 😑. also we literally see him at rock bottom struggling and freaking out and i think that's important to remember. in a different context i doubt he would have ever said those things to laios

Lars Tunbjörk – Alien at the Office (2004)

#book club #photography #Lars Tunbjork #Lars Tunbjörk #Alien at the Office #i was thinking about these earlier while i was walking around taking silly little woods photos #probably one of my favorite photo albums I've ever seen #read his interview in that link #the idea of taking pictures like you've never seen something before sounds easy in theory but it isn't so simple to do well #but i like these pictures #especially the middle row because of the colors and stuff. i think they go well together #arc #<-there's also that but i would love this even without that association #i saw these for the first time like... a few years ago i wanna say? and since then I've kind of been obsessed with the idea. yknow #like... just the normalness and at the same time it's just slightly off #taken at weird angles of things you wouldn't look at if you've been in a place before #yknow the kind of things you just get used to

Hi, I kind of have a question, Adam said that can't walk in the sun when doesn't drink blood, but what exactly happens? Do vampires just burn immediately, begin to be more sensitive to sunburn or is it another kind of thing?

so, in time and time again I really wanted blood to be something of a medicinal need for vampires. it's not a 1:1 metaphor of course, please don't try to think of it that way, but it's how I conceptualize it.

He needs blood to go in the sun, to heal, to "be something of a human again" and it also grants him the ability to time travel, shapeshift, compel others...

Without blood, he can't do these things. So, to be honest, without blood vampires would just... die. They can't exist without it. being in the sun uses blood, its dangerous. it wears you down. it makes you weaker. it can kill you!

I realize this ends up making my vampires feel weak, but... it's a metaphor for chronic illness. They have limited energy and if they do not take the time and the 'medications' they need to recover, they'll become weak or die. They have to manage their limited energy.

there's extreme privilege for vampires who have steady access to blood, like Adam does. His access to blood lets him time travel, transform, go in the sun constantly, etc. Vampires without as much access have to become nocturnal, they get stuck in one place, they have to be careful because even a small cut can cost precious resources...

A desperate vampire might end up hurting someone for what they need. a vampire with people who are willing to help them can get by, or even thrive. a vampire with none of these will die.

I know it's not the most satisfying answer, but it is my answer! My experiences being chronically ill are very much at play here.

#I dont want people to think too much about it as a metaphor for chronic illness #cause. OBVIOUSLY 'monster who kills people' is kind of loade #but as you can tell in my writing I'm sort of doing my own kinds of vampires #idk. I think within the confines of my story it's a metaphor I'm comfortable with people reading #but within the broad scope of vampires as a concept not so much #I mean even within the confines of my story I think that it has severe limitations as a metaphor #just. yknow it is the internal logic I'm using and the intent I have #asks #anon #also you dont have to start all your asks with 'hi i sort of have a question' #its okay to just ask me things #pretty sure these are all coming from the same person and I'm pretty sure I know who #not to freak you out just #its a tell haha #its ok to just ask me things I promise #I enjoy talking about my work #I'm happy to get the questions

hey. um. i love him

#O_O i really love him #it's getting warmer every day and i can't draw him in a sweater for much longer #by the way. is this site going to. yknow. die #sigh........i kept telling myself I'd get better at it one day #kind of like the way i tell myself i can get together courage to speak up but i never do #using another website just sounds so depressing #im not good at social media. im tired of pretending like i can get good at it #but you can't even pretend like you can jump into a conversation if no one is having a conversation #i wanted to be part of a community here but i never could figure out what belonging looked like or how i could do it #and maybe it's my fundamental misunderstanding of that that prevents it but how can i understand it without experience #I'm so jealous of everyone who looks like they achieved what i couldn't even put my finger on. but since i didn't even understand it #i can't even be sure what exactly im jealous of #the other day i walked past a trio of friends and they had their arms around each other and were laughing as they walked #and i felt really strongly that even though I've always wanted a friend like that I'm actually fundamentally incompatible with that. #there's several reasons #but it made me feel really sad. but it made me feel a little better too. i guess it's really not my fault. maybe. i don't really know #in that moment it felt very much like something that was not my fault. and it was nice and sad at the same time #idk what's going to happen here. but one thing i know for sure is that i can have a happy tomorrow. no matter what #no matter what i have to give up on. i can find joy in other things. even in myself #and if there's one idea that he is about. it's that one

tdov was like a week ago already but I just wanna say when I came over to vacation slash help my sworn brother move flat he told me, "ever since you said you wanted to get top surgery I've been thinking about it. it's straight up number two on my bucket list"

#bakuspeech #number one is a house bc obviously. if u can own a house wouldnt u #he was very drunk at that time of the evening. I was not bc I have the constitution of a hot air balloon and any stimulant will blow me up #(relatively new development. france fucked me up big time turns out) #we held hand on his bed for like the whole evening. it was honestly very funny in hindsight but we were extremely earnest in the moment #and Im like. working on this thing as well. I dont got meds or therapy lmao Im bootstrappin here #but yeah early last year his bf offered to get me meds and I... turned it down... I think I was worried abt like. idk. something #but one year past looking back Im fully like that was a stupid move you shouldve gotten meds. youve once again fucked urself baku #but yeah with that kinda realization Ive also come to realized I've somewhat? accepted. that I'm just gonna be. like this #this in light of a number of likely chronic stuff too (hence my balloon-like constitution lmao) and #that's kinda bled into the rest of me without me really noticing #but him bringing that up fully unprompted... kinda jolted me out of it #its just. really incredibly sweet. that someone doesn't want me to settle for what I make do with #and like. preps for that work. just kinda held my hand and told me it's possible to do this actually #I didn't really express how I felt very well in that moment I think my brain is very bad and I process emotions with like a day of delay #but. well. Im thinking abt it Right Now. so yknow thats the kind of impact that had on me lol #not super sure why I wrote all this down here really. I think I just want a good n nice reminder that object permanence is real #and I exist in my friends' life even when Im going insane in a hole by myself #and with the power of friendship we can alter the universe's plan for ourselves and also kill god #that's that. anyways I eat lunch now and then pass out probably. last night was... eventful lmao #but!! very good things on the horizon hopefully. well manifestly we hold hammers and we use them #have a good day lads. let's go out and slay monsters under a highway

comments on art that are like "this reminds me of this other artist (complimentary)" "your art looks like you used to draw x thing (/positive)" "you draw like you watched a lot of x as a kid (this is a compliment)" are so funny to me because it's so hit or miss.

there's like 3 possible reactions you can get, either you hit the nail on the head and the person is like "haha so true omg YA GOT ME" etc, or like "ok. your guesses were way off but 👍 thanks I guess" or the person Actively Dislikes The Thing Their Art Was Compared To and are now Stressed

#ramblings with major #the second kind of reaction is also like. okay a comparison has been made. i don't get it. but it's good i guess. #like there's no elaboration on what was good about the other thing just 'your art is like this other thing (this is good)' #so theres not even a real compliment if you don't get it #a more effective way of complimenting in this way is to perhaps add what's actually good about the art yknow #like 'oh this reminds me of x cuz the lines are similar they look so cool' instead of just. no elaboration. #like if you want to something nice about someones art Say Something Nice instead of just comparing it to things #or just playing a public guessing game of what the artist used to be into #you have a 2/3 chance of it Not Landing Right #i appreciate all compliments on my art <3 but some confuse me <3 #anyway i need to sleep goodnight <3

i do think the whole "ganging up on one person for a week then moving on" culture of the internet is egregious enough and it's the worst when it happens to ppl who haven't done anything wrong but "body language experts" on tiktok decided are evil or w/e. but it's also still bad when the person's worst crime is just kind of being a dick. this includes creators and somewhat public figures like youtubers or artists etc like i truly think the best thing to do is ignore them. they either made a mistake and are gonna learn from it, or they're just gonna keep being a dick to get more attention. and it's ESPECIALLY bad when the "kind of being a dick" event took place months or even years ago and you're bringing it up publicly to cancel someone (even more so when they clearly changed since then). like why does everyone on twitter think it's their job to school a whole adult man for posting something mean. to call out a small artist for being kinda rude to her fan once. can't we just all collectively find a new hobby

#watching vids abt urbanspook and I'm like man. i get why you're angry. but just don't watch his shit 😭 #and ignore him on twitter on god. if him being a dick makes you cringe you can very much just go do something else instead #another example i had in mind here is the drama with ww when in case i make it came out #like a whole album about recovery and changing and apologizing for who you were #but then someone brings up him being kind of a dick a few years ago (and using buzzwords like grooming to make it stand out) #like man we are all people. we're all gonna be mean at some point. we can't be perfect and pleasant and nice 100% of the time #we have bad days or topics that put us on the edge or we become childish when smth we put effort into gets criticized #and yeah we should take a step back and stay offline for a bit but it's easy to not think things thoroughly when you're already upset #and this is exactly why we should be more forgiving when someone does that. imo. yknow? #it's one thing for the people around them to call them a dick and it's another when thousands of strangers gang up on them #just. man. move on. make a private post expressing your rage if needed but leave the person alone. they're still only human

[wazzuppy]

the pattern of leftist, mostly male youtubers always prefacing their misogyny by specifying the person in question is white-- as if that somehow makes being misogynistic okay-- is very, very exhausting.

#tara says stuff #hbomb's new video had me thinking about how rampant misogyny is even in leftist spaces #which is the political party that yknow. is supposed to ACTUALLY support us #i know that wasnt the topic of the video but i just couldnt get it out of my head #bc i know ive certainly engaged in conversations where i also just like #did stuff like that?? #like #i let my internalized misogyny kind of manifest bc others around me (who i looked up to and respected) were acting that way #and i justified it by saying it was white women #i think as i grow older and become more informed about these types of things #im more able to just. recognize it as bullshit #not to say women/white women cant be criticized #but if you ALWAYS have to specify its a white woman your talking about #chances are you still think this type of shit about a non-white woman too #you just recognize that as being racist and bad and reject it #meanwhile general misogyny you dont see as being as bad #so u feel the need to specify white women bc then it makes it seem like u dont just shit on ALL women

nico is actually confirmed catholic in ton

“And, through it all, he’d struggled with his upbringing as a conservative Catholic Italian male from the 1930s and finally learned to accept himself as a young gay man.” (chp 10)

I will take your word on this because I do not feel like checking my copy of ToN and also I have no reason to disbelieve you. Also, i'll be completely honest i do my best every day to try to forget literally everything that happened in Tower of Nero because of how awful all of it was.

ironically immediately after I got this ask, I got another anon talking more about how the troglodytes (introduced in ToN) are racist. And I think that's beautiful.

#ask #Anonymous #other anon I will get to you in a bit feel free to poke me if i forget #but know that i saw your ask and seeing it come in IMMEDIATELY after this ask was extremely funny to me #but yeah i'll be real by ToN i just kind of stopped accepting anything it said as canon. like. objectively its canon. but yknow. #and Rick gets so messy and inconsistent with Nico's backstory by HoO. #i dont like that we get exposition about Nico's life from a random third party he's barely interacted with before #especially since it's inconsistent information with what we've been told about Nico leading up to this point #cause we have no reason to believe Maria raised Nico conservatively #in fact we have every reason to believe otherwise because again he's specifically from Venice #and Venice during the war actually had a decent amount of anti-fascist stuff going on #not to mention just what we've seen of Maria she's like. cussing out Zeus basically. as far as we know she will not tolerate injustice #which tracks with her having had TWO kids with the god of the underworld #okay actually i did end up looking this up cause i hadn't remembered Rick ever explicitly using “gay” in the books to describe Nico but yea #anyways. ToN is out the window for me alongside the new book. mostly for the trogs but also things have just stopped making sense

2.Favorite canon thing about this character?

there's so little 'canon' to pick from with this guy but i do genuinely adore how he is inexplicably a frog for absolutely no fucking reason. i never realized how inherently goofy everything frogs have going on is until i saw it applied to a thing that is very much not a frog. they literally didn't need to do that but it's the best thing ever

5. What's the first song that comes to mind when you think about them?

u kno i always dread this question. the concept of a 'character playlist' or anything like that is so alien to me sjdfjkdjksdfh. much as i am the music guy ever and have a fuckmassive library, most of my memorable/influential stuff is really loud abrasive aggressive edm, which is basically never applicable to any character at all ever. that said, i do think about "music reskins" for games sometimes, and i think STruTS' Bizarre Angel works well enough for his fight. i have to stress this is ONLY a boss battle theme though-less about him as a character, and more about landing an atmosphere for the player for peppino's perception of the events.

12. What's a headcanon you have for this character?

the shedding thing is really the only thing i'd directly call a ''headcanon'' and that already has its own extensive post so there is not much extra to say here :p

#i generally dont call it 'headcanon' so much as just whatever take/interpretation i have of the canon canon #said take may not be ''correct'' per se but i do always try to have some kind of logical base for it #im not sure if it's the normal/widely-used definition but ''headcanon'' to me means something you made up just for funsies #so even if the things i pull from can get VERY obtuse it's still not really sth i came up with on my own yknow #except for aforementioned shedding. that was purely bc i wanted to make him more awful <3 #pizzaposting #i was actually not thinking of frogs at all when i originally got the shedding idea. it was leopard geckos. #while making the post i learned frogs ALSO do that and i was like ohoho. how perfect.

this is. random from me blog browsing and seeing posts on blogs i don't follow and it's not supposed to be a Vague Post™ but is technically a vague post because i'm not speaking to these people directly but listen----- the way some of you talk about, like. you will go "my character likes fat girls" (and you will say things like 'the pudge' and 'the chub' which is like. i dunno fine i guess but a little uncomfy to me.) and it's. like. i know where you're coming from with the posts and what you're trying to say and for that it's again like... fine but it flirts with being fetishization so badly and i'm not sure how many people know that.

#esp. the ones that go like..... #''most of my ships are with skinny girls'' and / or include the word 'hourglass' anywhere like #it's. .... there is Effort being made and i appreciate it but it's also. kind of strange ;sdl;fkjgsd;lkfgjs;dlkfjg #i don't know if this is a Me thing or a fat girls in general thing (pls do not panic i promise i'm in my lane) it's just #i dunno i feel like specifying ''likes fat girls'' not matter which uwu replacement word you use is like #.... i don't think it needs to be said? your muse is into whoever they're into and #unless you're specifically trying to speak to it being some form of kink #(which would be fine!) i really don't think you're doing what you think you're doing #like. fat girls are just girls. if you character is into girls you really don't need to ''the fat ones too'' yknow????? is that #is that reading the way i'm trying to explain it??? idk #genuinely about to haul off & start biting ( ooc. ) #like this is not a 1 to 1 i know stay w/me but imagine if u were like.

Y'know Im not even gonna pretend to get ppl complaining abt the new skill trees because it makes Wilson less unique or whatever. Like there's plenty to complain abt with the skill trees, but you have to understand that the actual abilities Wilson gets from them are still unique, and still quite powerful in some cases. He rly isn't losing anything he hasn't lost by getting a skill tree in the first place, and in particular he could have a lot of use for certain speedruns and at worst is situational, which in itself means he's gained a unique role as a character. He doesn't need another new rework now or anything, the only rework Id want is a rework of the skill trees in general, Wilson is genuinely going to be just fine don't worry

#rat rambles #dst #my main problem with the skill trees is that it only encourages the bare minimum #like idk I feel like if I could turn on godmode and walk away from my computer and unlock everything its probably not great game design #like I get whay theyre going for but Id kind of preffer if doing certain character related tasks effected it or smth #mainly I like the idea of having to work to unlock your mains full potential #obviously not too much like an exp system would suck absolute ass but idk maybe certain tasks can shorten the timer #or maybe to unlock certain branches of the skill tree you have to meet a prerequisite first like the lunar and shadow trees #not as demanding as defeating celestial champion or fuelweaver ofc #like for a rly simple and easy example maybe wilson has to make an alchemy engine before being able to unlock his alchemy skills #and fer higher tiers he needs a shadow manipulatoro or smth #idk even simple stuff like that would at least encourage the player to do something while waiting around yknow? #like imagine a hyothetical wurt skill tree that unlocks as you expand your army making it more self sufficiant #just lil things youll probably be doing anyways but still makes it feel a bit more like youve earned smth for playing the character well #instead of just sitting there until you can unlock everything #I just worry that the skill trees are gonna feel too flat with the current system :/ #I do rly like a lot of wormwood's stuff tho and I like that theyre attempting to find a compramise to making characters more powerful #without just handing you a broken character right off the bat #I just think it could use some work and Im not 100% sold on the skill trees being smth thatll improve the game in the long run #like Im sure it wont like ruin dst or anything I just think it might end up as a thing that makes new players have a more boring earlygame #experience especially if certain trees become like the standard for most players #I want it to be Fun unlocking things yknow? #idk Ill still be hyped if/when wortox gets a tree bestie needs the extra depth so fucking bad #he has so much potential pls let him have this #also rip to woodie for being eternally kind of mid Im not expecting his tree to effect his general ranking much tbh #it basically just gives him early game usefullness and some slight buffs to his other forms #the fact that you can only master one form at at time especially sucks ass tho tbh #like his weremoose form Needs the buff so so bad but the goose teleportation might end up the go to pick #I am a huge fan of the treeguard summoning tho #I also hope they just man up and give the wood helmet 80% reduction idc just let him have this klei
