Just Desserts continental northern map made using this method! :D (Patreon)
#My art#Just Desserts#The JD residents all live on the northmost landmass in the middle green area - which I've been calling The Basin#It's a fairly flat area that has a very extreme mountain range to its north#They jut up extremely and then clifface on the coastline - keeps the Basin very protected from high moisture!#I've mentioned before how the JD universe doesn't really have summers - I mean that's Partially true#The Basin only experiences three seasons but the more south you go the more seasonal variation there is#But Residents can't stand the heat - even ones that are pastries that would require heat to bake don't fare well day after day#So none live in warmer climes! Other things do tho :)#It's funny to me how piecemeal this idea came together haha#The map-making trick is hecka cool! And it was definitely the push I needed but there are other bits of this that fell in line first#Most especially the fun little idea that I've doodled here or there and talked about in bits and pieces#Of how since the residents are candy that they mine teeth like cavities haha - it's canon now! >:3c#The northern mountains are the silhouette of the lower half of a human jaw! And with how they jut up - the mountains are shaped like teeth!#The Basin is the basin of the mouth/jaw where the tongue would normally be - the tasty bit haha#And residents do have a calcium-mining industry up there - and if the deposits happen to form in a specific shape well ♪ Hehehe#I'm still parsing what I'd like the mineral to Do exactly - it's more likely to be a building material than a food item but hmm#Why would they have such a need for it! Something more to consider#For now it's just a fun idea that finally got put to reality hehe ♪ And it was a fun thing to work on! :D#I'm not sure yet of what other landmasses might be around - maybe this is the whole world! - or what other fauna and flora there is#I'm back on thinking about Elemental Magic so there's that lol I can't help it#I'd like for the JD universe's magic system to be a little more defined :) Every little step helps!#See if you can identify the other silhouettes I used! :D

Hey, is “The Patrician Tribune” by W. Jeffrey Tatum the best resource for learning about Clodius? What others are there?
Hi! I’m not a serious #scholar I just suffer from mental malaises, but from my experience it’s a pretty solid biography. I think it may be the only focused biography on Clodius (in English at least) (someone please let me know if I’m wrong) (please) so I’ve read a lot of general articles/book chapters on him sources either through Jstor search or on my university library database.

filmed acting (like TV/films) is very interesting to me, and one particular reason is the fact that scenes of a story are often filmed out of order, for a variety of reasons. i wonder how it changes or affects an actor's preparation or understanding of their character to film that way.

Hisuian Zoroark is one of the sickest designs in pokemon, but the model on that bloke is FUCKED. It's really bad. If they bother to port her over to other games, you know they ain't changing that model, either, 'cept to make the textures paler & duller.
I continue to despise pokemon, despite being a pokemon fan, I fucken guess. At this point, I gotta go all in on summat else, like Cassette beasts.
#gale chatter#i have MINOR problems with the beasts but they are nothing + I ain't abt to be negative abt it online#it's a good game made by good people my complaints are so tiny you NEED to play it#if you like me wish pokemon would do more fun interesting things or miss spritework in ur pokemon#u need to try cassette beasts. I'll admit i haven't beaten it but what I've seen in the story is INSANE#also i generally try not to talk smack about indie games it just ain't right. biggest ip on the planet‚ however‚#i can talk shit about pokemon all damn day.#the fucking way they keep using the same models the most minimal of animations & the pokemon keep getting pale as shit#to the point that pokemon like pichu are fucken impossible to tell from their shiny (slightly paler pichu)#the way that the designs are done in 2D & designed in it but then when it comes time to model they just. lose all charm#you get designs that were obviously not intended to have full 360 turnabouts (h. zoroark & emboar)#then you get deisgns that lose all their charm when modeled. in example -- look at the boltund model next to the art.#it's. bad. those are different animals. i feel NOTHING for the boltund model. it has no heart nor care in it just a means to an end#the gameplay never changes the sories have ALWAYS been lackluster they introduce cool ideas every other gen & ABANDON THEM#SO YOU HAVE A REASON TO BUY THE NEXT ONE BC IT HAS A NEW IDEA. MEGA EVOS WHAT'S THAT? DYNAMAX NOW.#the way they slice up the games to have exclusives SPECIFICALLY to piecemeal them back to you in 2 different games#so you either need to buy both (THAT IS 120 DOLLARS) or pay for online + have a friend. it has always been predatory.#it's. BAD.#& let's not pretend that 1/2 the lazy work is because the workers HAVE to be lazy. they pump these games out so fast that#nobody has time to write & revise & rewrite the stories which is fucking GLARING when you play sword or violet#in violet it is blatantly obvious they had the end planned first & then made up the rest as they went but had a hard time#connecting it back to the end so there's a noteable rush in the game & it sucks also if you call that game nonlinear i will attack you#IT ISN'T. IT IS DESIGNED SO THAT YOU NEED. TO GO IN A SPECIFIC ORDER. BECAUSE OF THE LEVELS#otherwise you'll hit a lvl 60 gym at lvl 40 then have to go back to fight the lvl 40 gym at lvl 70#the studio rushes their workers & it results in sloppy implimentation of halfbaked mechanics & poor deisgns & writing#i pray that if there is a god that nintendo actually does slow down on these shits i would like the games my little cousins play#to not be such fucken rushed & undercooked hot garbage. fuck you

Muscles are fun (Patreon)
#Doodles#These are actually mostly on the older side! Which is a shame I wouldn't mind doodling some more arms ♪#I always enjoy muscle studies :)#I tend to work on things piecemeal - anyone remember like two years ago when I was working on legs? Lol#It's just nicer to pick a muscle set and break 'em down and reconstruct! Min-max strategy - specificity#Honestly it was mostly upper arms that I wanted to work on initially which you can see in how I've chopped off the other half for several#I think it was something of an elbow thing? Although knowing me it was also a wing thing lol#I do have an angel mannequin with no arms so maybe I was thinking of him? I've forgotten by this point haha it's been too long!#That little bump from the shoulder that feeds into the bicep was definitely a big thing as well - it's such an interesting shape#Backs are still incredibly fun as well ♪ They're just so layered! It's neat#Angles and push and pull ♫ Very enjoyable#I think I want to work on the neck next - especially since I only learned about the hyoid bone recently! The heck!#I couldn't find basically any diagrams or muscle guides or animations of what the hyoid actually looks like in motion >:0 The heck#Do you suppose animated-from-death skeletons would have a hyoid bone? Would they fall off or be magically affixed?#'Cause it's not like skeletons have the necessary tendons to tie themselves together so hmm maybe there's just a little peeky-peek neck bone#Well until then - arms and chests and bellies and backs hehe

The thing about OCD is I'm sooooo good at brushing my teeth and taking a shower and getting ready for work on time every single day. I'm also sooooo good at trapping myself in a mental torture dungeon and weaponizing any attempt to get out of there by gaslighting myself. "You're crazy, you don't know what you need. However I, the torture machine in your brain, do and you need to listen to me or else you and everyone you love will die painfully and full of regret <3"

Guilt for a thousand small things, usually infractions against the aspirational plans for the day that I make for myself, is such a constant companion I can’t even imagine the absence of a voice in my head berating myself for constant misuse of time and energy

how did you get out of your local scene? i'm trying to (i'm in the proces of converting to catholicism) but a lot of my life is super entangled and it's also hard for part of me to understand why it's bad, per se, because on some level being in the scene feels good. please don't feel pressured to answer this! god bless
!!!! PRAISE GOD AHHH I've never met anyone else in this situation!!
Honestly, it was a lot like I imagine quitting smoking. I probably tried (to varying degrees) to leave at least 4 times. Not only is it chemically addictive (the high of participating in a scene, for example), but for me it was my entire social life and sense of community. I wasn't able to do much, but I really tried to build a sense of community outside the scene as much as possible. The woman who responded to me about RCIA thankfully had another female convert about my age she put me in touch with, I tried going to different events, etc. I also got a lot more into my solo hobbies.
Also, if you have a fetlife, what worked for me was deactivating it (so it was still there, which was less terrifying) before outright deleting it. I backed up my writings and honestly my photos as well lol, although I think I've since destroyed the photos. I also had most of my close friends phone numbers. You need to distance yourself from it, for me it had become like any social media. A lot of muscle memory and habit. I also had a kink tumblr that I logged out of to start this one. I think for a while I let myself use it, but I made myself login and out each time.
I also don't super know how to help with the "wrong" part of it. There was a big turning for me where I like, physically couldn't bring myself to go into the basement of the one building without feeling nauseous well before my opinion had changed. I'd say don't focus too hard on trying to make yourself think or feel a certain way, just focus on building time in prayer and with Him and see how He moves. If you do legit want a more theological description of why it's wrong and I'm just misinterpreting definitely let me know bc I'd love to help there!!
Eventually, by nature of the scene itself it will eventually no longer be the same scene you left. One of the pillars of my community unexpectedly dropped dead a few months after my baptism, covid happened and munches and sloshes all screeched to a halt. people move and leave and after long enough away, it's no longer the familiar gang of people. You've got this!! and again PRAISE GOD that's so exciting!!!!! praying for you!!!!!
