Hey it's me the real marina who isn't dj hyperfresh. I need you to veemo me $250 so I can make more music. pearl is here too ello its pearl

I am Dr. Ivo Roboctonik, the cousin of Octoling, Maria Roboctinik. She was first octoling in space when she made a secret flight to orbit 18 year ago. She was on a later Octarian spaceflight, to the secret Octarian military space station ARK 10 year ago. She was stranded there when the Great Zapfish was recovered. Her other Octarian crew members returned to earth but Maria place was taken up by return cargo. There have been occasional supply flights to keep her going since that time. She is in good humor, but wants to come home.

In the 10 year since she has been on the station, she has accumulated flight pay and interest amounting to almost 15,000,000,000 Geso. This is held in a trust at the Octo Mountain Trust Association. If can obtain access we to this money, we can place a down payment with the Octarian Space Authorities for a return flight to bring him back to Earth. I am told this will cost 3,000,000,000 Geso. In order to access the his trust fund we need your assistance.

Consequently, my I and colleagues are willing to transfer the total amount to your account or subsequent disbursement, since we as civil servants are prohibited by the Code of Conduct Bureau (Civil Service Laws) from opening and/or operating foreign accounts in our names.

Needless to say, the trust reposed on you at this juncture is enormous. In return, we offering you 20 percent of transferred sum, while 10 percent set aside for incidental expenses (internal and external) between parties in the intercourse of the transaction. You will mandated to remit the balance 70 percent to other accounts in due course.

Kindly expedition of action as we are behind schedule to enable us downpayment. Please acknowledge receipt of this message via alternate email ([email protected])

Yours Sincerely

Ivo Roboctonik

#don't play this scam game with me. i'm FAR fucking better than you at this.#splatoon #//OOC: quick note - my headcanon is that while short-range space travel is known to be not only possible but probably easy #//nobody has bothered to go to space simply because nobody really wants to go through the effort. but there's still movies about it #//because space is still cool.#//satellites are definitely a thing though #//also also! based on an actual 419 scam about a nigerian astronaut “abacha tunde” and dr. bakare tunde

i love my Basketbot Portal AU

#Basketball is Chell and Robot Flower is Glados #i think GB would be Cave Johnson and TB is prob just her assistant.. and Puffball would be the Turrets (because she sings so beautifully)!!#maybe Flower is Caroline?#The plot would change a bit too... this AU is more like a role insertion and not a complete perfect run of Portal/Portal 2 #Basketball would still be trapped by RF to do tests and she would try to get closer to Robot Flower and try to fix her #Basketball is really smart... i think she would admire Robot Flower's innovation and creativity even if shes Evil... they looove each other #they would totally fall in love and date in the end trust #in the end i think Basketball would try to code the personality spheres off of her #maybe each personality sphere could be a character... like Intelligence Core = Pin (cake) or Book (smart and knowledgeable)#Space Core = 8 Ball (in the sense that they both have a fixation on one thing... Space and 8 yknow?)#Morality Core = Teardrop..... or actually maybe Pie? shes apathetic and i think it would be cool #Curiosity Core = Liy or Pillow... in a sense? before her huge killing spree thing i think Pillow was the very curious and experimental type #im not completely sure for Wheatley... ill think on it #omg if you read all this thank you sm ive been thinking of this for literal months #btw please tag me if you make art #bfdi #portal #basketbot #basketball x robot flower #basketbot portal au #key rambling

I do age this month and I just keep getting sad because last birthday I held my friends captive and made them all watch star trek with me (themed dress up party + a playlist of episodes I curated and me shouting, "wait watch this, this is iconic" every 2 minutes) and nothing will ever top that.

#its worth noting none of my friends watch star trek. maybe one of them was familiar with certain characters #and they all still dressed up and my friend made sticker badges for everyone 😭#my partner bought star trek party decorations #it was so cool #and i felt so loved because everyone had to listen to me info dump about a show i love #star trek #tos #star trek the original series #star trek strange new worlds #star trek the next generation #tng #star trek tos #star trek tng #star trek deep space nine #deep space nine #deep space 9 #kirk #spock

why am i crying over space children. jake going against his father's orders just to teach nog how to read im bawling my eyes out. sisko being so proud of him at the end. oh my god.

#TEHRUSKGNAM #I CANT RNNN #also i think its very interesting that they contrast the preaching of community and acceptance in the space station w sisko's reluctance to #let jake hang out with nog #i understand in part why but i still think thats a really cool writing choice #it also shows that children dont have prejudice built into them and that its taught instead #jakes first instinct was to try and make friends with nog #i love it here #THEYRE SOO CUTTEEEEEEE #not equipped for rambling #star trek ds9 #ds9 #deep space nine #also i adore how a lot of the show centers around siskos fatherhood to help portray those family and connection themes #its great #star trek #AND SISKO BEING SO PROUD #BECAUSE LIKE #OH YM VSOGKSLG #the ultimate show of acceptance and community #overcoming small internal biases etc etc #oh ymgofkgms #ic skgbmsg

Which Danny Phantom episode had the Coolest idea but the Worst execution

#danny phantom #like we all know DP as a concept was So cool and so underutilized #but what eps boil your blood because of HOW WASTED the idea was #for me its a srs toss up btw memory blank and masters of all time #MB could have been a great exploration of what if showing that dannys powers did have meaning and helped people #not to mention him taking control of the narrative and choosing himself to get his powers #butttt masters of all time could have been such an interesting exploration of why vlad is how he is the nature of being a halfa #and how both vlad/jack and fundamentally different people #(See my idea where halfa jack and maddie still marry and danny is born with his powers and vlad is a vengeful human hunter out to get them)#phans plz put in the tags why certain episodes destroy your souls!#Also sorry if I didnt include your worstie #I had only 12 spaces so I picked the 12 most egregious examples imo

When bill sees thru an eye does he switch from one to another like channels or can he see thru all of them at once and pick on which one he wants to focus on?

He can see through multiple eyes at once, though probably not ALL of his eyes at once. There's simply too many around to spread himself that thin! And of the ones he's currently using, he'll only pick a few to really focus on.

#answers #Imagine a massive wall of screens all showing different views #With Bill chilling in a recliner watching the shows #Probably only a few dozen to a couple hundred are 'active' at any time #Any more than that and it's just cluttered #His intellect is huge and his available working memory and attention are vaster than a human's #But a guy can only juggle so much before he starts dropping all the balls #There's probably a bunch that he's 'seeing' through that he's simply not paying attention to #Still nice to have them in the periphery in case something cool DOES happen and catches his eye #Like a gristly murder or some hot gossip #And there's a bunch of 'channels' that simply haven't been flipped to in ages #Not much to see in the the deep void of space or buried under the earth or at the bottom of the more boring part of the ocean #In the Cult incarnation Bill somehow missed all the ones in Dipper's cult #Whether that's because of magical reasons or simple obliviousness? The world shall have to guess for now

#garry's mod #gmod #source engine #half life 2 #other #hearted #SUPER cool map on par with a GMT Lobby 2/Playstation Home kinda space #really cool condo designs. looked like there was one modern swanky room and one that was more like. rp_downtown apartment style #my favorite part is the little hideaways/secret tunnels that don't really go anywhere substantial but they're special because you're just #somewhere you're not 'supposed to be' which was one of my absolute favorite things in GMT #everyone who played a ton knew about those spaces and they weren't anything that crazy but it was cool to little wannabe-rulebreaker me #apparently the creators were running a server for this map a la GMT but it's been down for a bit #i've spent plenty of time in GMT and Tower to know just hanging out in the plaza is not my thing anymore but i'm sure demand is still there

The piece I made for the anniversary collab going on in the fr discussion forum! Spent way too long on this just for it to be a compressed pixel-y blob in the final piece, plus I like how they turned out

#my art #monosart #flight rising #flightrising #frfanart #fr fanart #fr fan art #fr coatl #nova #my silly little space deity nova <3 <3 <3 they're curious about what all the mortals are doing in the water #was originally gonna use octavio because. avatar dragon. but im glad i went with nova. silly little deity watching the mortals being silly #but man i was supposed to be working on pride stuff for my sappholopods!! not dragons!!#but i saw the thread and got hit with enough motivation to work on this for like. 7+ hours???#tbf i was working on my phone so it took longer than it might've on a computer but still-#anyways the thread is so chaotic but so cool. coming together to draw our funny little dragons. i love you fr community never change <3

I draw every single day you would think I’d be good at it.

#I know practice makes perfect #I know that I should be studying the fundamentals #I know I should be trying to actively learn if I want to improve #but I am I am I am I am I’m trying to learn #every drawing every day #why aren’t I better yet why does my art still look like this #I just want to make pretty and cool things #I want to make pretty and cool things in reasonable time spaces #I want to be faster #so I can make more things #it’s been taking too long to get things done and it’s really getting to me #because it used to be school work that took to long and art that was fast but now over summer it’s like art is taking too long #and I don’t know why #I should be faster I should be better I can focus on it but it doesn’t make the drawing work #I don’t post anymore and I don’t know why #dawnsays

....why are the youtube comments so mad lol don't y'all like to have fun. don't we like to have fun here

#ari speaks #half of them are 'wahhh this is what happens when you make games WOKE' like. baby. shhhh. it's not dark fantasy enough for you???#like we are allowed to have varied opinions but also idk. dragon age has always had moments of being a lil silly. especially inquisition.#titsicles???? the nug king???? i'm attacking your holdfast with a goat????? cmon now.#we DO get a little silly here and i'm really not opposed to (well-placed) tonal irreverence in a world about to end.#bitch the world we are CURRENTLY living in is falling apart and i am also being a silly fucking guy because it's all i got.#if i lived in thedas irl i'd be in taverns getting tomatoes thrown at me for bad stand-up about kirkwall HAVE SOME FUN LIVE A LITTLE.#also bc it's been so long one has to imagine that they're also trying to grab some new fans here so it does not surprise me #that the trailer is not 'Boo Hoo Sad Times Dark Fantasy Game No. 49' (i say as an enjoyer of depressing dark fantasy)#esp when all of the prior promotional material has been very doom and gloom.#i don't think that just because the game is being marketed like this/that we're switching focus from solas that the game will be #sanitized and not dealing with any kind of fucked up lore and shit. i am holding out hope that we're going to get some cool opportunities #to play in a space that is def dark but can still give room to breathe.#anyway i do not actually giv a fuck (genuine not insulting) if the trailer did not make u excited das ok.#unless you're complaining that it's woke garbage now/so bad because g*ider is uninvolved. if thats the case you may fuck off.#sorry for the tag essay!

Both concepts make me wanna take someone by the shoulders and shake them into oblivion if only to make them understand how I feel about soulmates

Little "bouquet" of random flowers I found growing wild in a yard

#flowers #photo diary #I think people are way too mean about ''''weeds'''' and not appreciative of them. Like.. dandelions are super nice looking #and bright and pretty.. forget me nots are so cute and a nice color.. etc. all of these random things that just spring up in the yard #are so neat. and it's evil that people tear them up and mow them down all the time #I guess maybe I get dandelions because they can kind of take over a space?? MAYBE?? but even then #if I was going to have a yard that is just a giant empty plot of blank grass. I would ratherit have a scattering of dandelions than #just like....... nothingness.#Also super cool that this person I know has columbines growing wildly in the yard. They hate them and pull them up #since they've kind of ''taken over'' a patch of grass near a bench they use #but they're soooo cool... Though they only have the single color ones just purple. My favorite columbines are the ones that are two colors #and almost look like two flowers in one or something.#There's a hill near a road around here where poppies seem to be growing wild.. ough... I wish I could go and take some or something #I've tried to transplant forget me nots everytime I'm in some realitive or friend's yard who has them and I ask to dig a few up but #I think theyre just not the type of flower that really grows long term on a deck lol.. but I wish they were... I just really like the blue #color. THOUGH this year in someone else's yard I found a very cool flower just randomly growing wildly that I had never seen #before. It's called Bethlehem Lungwort and it has spotted leaves and multi colored flowers and it looked like a flower out of a cartoon #at first. Since it was randomly growing wild in a yard the person let me dig one of them upand its' still aliveon my deck actualy #It's not blooming flowers anymore but the leaves are still prospering fine. Though it seems to really dislike the super hot sun #and will wilt in this heat wave if I'm not watering it at least once every other day lol.. anyway

If Ulysses has a million haters, then I'm one of them. If Ulysses has one hater, then I'm THAT ONE. If Ulysses has no haters, that means I'm dead. If the world is with Ulysses than I’m against the world.

#this is slightly joking but like also not but also like am mixed on Ulysses on many factors #infuriating because i sympathize with his pain but it’s like #he is a well written and fundamentally flawed character whose hypocrisy I found doubly in #black characters I can tell were designed by white people with a semblance of an understanding of activism and bipoc oppression #but not enough for the character to not feel like hand holding for the majority white audience #plus personal grips with the whole twisted hairs thing and reference to slave braiding patterns #Ulysses irks me as a black person on a weird personal level and I can go into debt on why him being black is a big detractor for him to me #like he continues this cycle of distancing himself from his roots before remembering over and over again through his actions #he leave so much in his wake that the courier ends up correcting or helping like in honest hearts and old world blues because he’s self #righteous in a subtle way even to himself that he believes he stand out of his one man rule when he does not play an active hand #saw a post talk about how you choose to continue moving through his story and can leave at any moment and this it is partially your fault #but what of the oath that is set before you and is forced to take that he set up #I do not have to walk it but when I do the steps are not my own but those taken for me #you have to go out of your way to change it which is not something he expects because he’s playing by a story he’s been perpetuating in his #head about you two and the effect one man has when he’s continually been that one man more so than you as many of his actions directly lead #to the one you go through also the irony in the flag he continues to bear being the real reason he has no home #like he reps it when the package is likely enclave and thus use the same symbol #also still can’t get over how anyone could have delivered the package and he tries so hard to act like it was the couriers destiny or fate #when this was the one case of chance and that once man was likely a enclave engineer and how it’s really is never one man #it the process and he’s so annoying about it like he’s a cool character but if you don’t believe in his philosophy or already went through #these ideas cause they are very common talking points in poc especially BIPOC spaces he’s just old hashings and stunted #fallout #fallout new vegas #Ulysses you upset me but I’m like I feel you could be better if you weren’t so incessant #I don’t think I ever want to make a serious post stating this about him just because I’d start yapping and it’d never get finished #ulysses fnv #fnv ulysses #lonesome road

Coda and Ichor! (Catacombtale Style!)

These two don't have a *ton* of interaction in the Main story, but since Ichor and Balance are the only two characters I've fully designed, Coda gets stuck next to him, haha!

BONUS art jumpscare:

These two actually exist in another project I'm working on too called Codex, which is basically just removing the UT aspects of Catacombtale and doing a lot more worldbuilding and character design!

Coda is older in Codex and is marked by an old God (which should get him jailed or killed, as it means for everyone else) but he hides it for years and years before he finally flees the complex he's living in to go confront the gods and stop their destructive path. Meanwhile Ichor is much the same, only he's much more ready and willing to help Coda without much prompting. Here he's also sort of a Koi Fish! (His brother is a Betta Fish)
