#A fantastic experience

After many frustrating years of seeing my fav babygirl Jonathan Harker be dismissed as boring, Dracula Daily is such a gift. And I'm getting to experience it again because Tumblr has decided to make this an annual event.
Love to all of you with your meta posts and art and memes.

Studying linguistics is actually so wonderful because when you explain youth slang to older professors, instead of complaining about how "your generation can't speak right/ you're butchering the language" they light up and go “really? That’s so wonderful! What an innovative construction! Isn't language wonderful?"
#linguistics#gen z slang#english#as people in the reblog pointed out!#most gen z slang comes from (or was appropriated from) aave#honestly I was just excited to talk about how people in my field actually get excited about non standard uses of English#instead of ridiculing speakers#and I tagged incorrectly and didn’t point out the very real issues of language and power and appropriation inherent in modern slang#in that much of it was appropriated#and even that which experiences language change in the wider culture still originated in aave#aave is just as linguistically valid as any other English dialect because it is a proper language#and the grammar is incredible!!!#habitual be is fantastic and an excellent example of how a richer case system or a certain case can render an adverb unnecessary#and the phonology is just beautiful#anyway I’m very sorry#I fucked up

At your side [End of Season 2]
[First] Prev <–-> Next
#poorly drawn mdzs#mdzs#wei wuxian#lan wangji#wen ning#jin ling#wen qing#jiang yanli#a-yuan#It may have taken a year but we did it! The end of season 2!!!#(Granted: this season was nearly twice the length of season one.)#It's been a really fantastic season to draw for. So many iconic moments! It was a lot of work but I had a blast B*)#I also enjoyed experimenting more and more with my comic style. I'm growing as a comic artist bit by bit!#There is even a little bit of shadowing in this one for next season. As a treat. All the fun (and not heart breaking) scenes to come!#Comic talk time: Recently saw 12 angry men for first time and I love the coincidence of the themes aligning here.#They both touch upon the horror of judicial systems - in which the most persuasive argument wins and the truth is a nuisance.#All it takes is one person to stand against the crowd and say 'I do not know what is true. And that is reasonable doubt enough.'#When the majority is for condemning someone guilty - that in itself is persuasive enough.#One will set their mind to what the 'truth' is and refuse to see it any other way. That their perspective is the only correct one.#No one is born with a monopoly on the truth.#Everyone has biases and agendas. Some care not for the outcome - only that they can be on the convenient side.#Lan Wangji is putting everything on the line to say 'I'm not going to go with the majority vote.'#And that is a huge deal in a story that is so politically focused as MDZS is. Everything is a careful chess move to these sects -#and to not play the game is basically sacrificing everything you are and your families name. For some it is unthinkable.#And there is no doubt in LWJ's mind. He would stand there and lose everything if it means upholding justice.#More importantly - these two have each other's backs. The bond is unbreakable. This is the most ride or die I have seen two people be.

Wanted to share this on my own too - so incredibly honored and proud to have made this cover for Mezzo, a new story from @swaps55. A fitting reveal for N7 Day, and one of my favorite things I've done to date!
The fic, by the way, rocks.
#n7 day#mass effect#n7day2023#shepard#normandy#legionofpotatoes#my art#always such a fantastic experience working with swaps. can't stop gushing. I'm all mushy today

p.s. it's been said a hundred times but apparently always needs to be said again: you're free to think ARR is bad (If You Actually Played It) but omg don't go around presenting it like it's the be-all, end-all, undisputed, unbiased, objective truth.
I'm forever glad I played when it came out and didn't have to deal with that shit because I can't imagine what it's like to be told over and over 'the game starts bad but just keep going'.
If people hadn't absolutely loved ARR we wouldn't be here now.
#...prev reblog reminded me of a post going around on twitter#i could write love letters to arr#i sunk my soul into it and it was such a fantastic experience#anyway i'll probably delete this i just get a lil rabid about it lmao

imogen fumbling shit is just eternally good fodder for memes, alright. and its at least partly BECAUSE of how powerful she is. someone tripping while using a nerf gun? funny. someone dramatically hoisting up an outfit matchin heavy death laser gun and then immediately tripping and landing on their face? phenom. sometimes she goes "GROVEL" and the enemies grovel and we all go "oooooh" and "aaaahhh" and sometimes she just gets fully ignored and gets so huffy and petulant and ineffectually burns a cantrip just to be petty about it. sometimes she smites her enemies into dust with one move and renders a tree in half after threatening and other times she fucking. falls down a flight of stairs and accidentally sets everything on fire. fires a gun at her own team. loses all her hair. turns blue. etc.
Imogen lifts a humongous sand squid into the sky with her mind powers. Imogen is also falling out of a sky ship and landing on the desert sand far below and just. lying there. while her friend plays the flute in the background. epic hot failgirls NEED the HEIGHT to FAIL FROM. u gotta swing and miss sometimes!!! AND you gotta be REAL petty about it when u miss!!!! fucking fantastic.
#its like how fjord with no dignity is fantastic because fjord is Hot and Charismatic and ClearHeaded under pressure but also#has never had a good experience with an animal despite being wild mother follower. tried to yell a flower into submission (and failed).#u have to take ur hottest and most powerful warriors and make them eat shit every now and then with the same zealousness that they#absolutely wreck shop#I apologize I know I've reblogged like four posts about it its just so delightful#critical role#c3e58#cr spoilers#imogen temult#shitpost#spar speaks#god with fjord and imogen there's just something about extremely powerful anxiety ridden Universes Personal Joke characters huh#whoops. I guess I might have a weakness after all.#theres a separate post about how her fucky morals and general anxiousness also collide hilariously but i realized i was losing the thread#what portion of it i hadnt already lost at least

no joke but what I really want for Buddy Daddies as a fandom is to make fanart and fanfic post present time ep12 where Rei wears an arm orthosis when working.
I think varied disability aids being represented would be fantastic, and personally would write Rei as someone being deeply proud of something he's done for his family, but also understanding with time that using an orthosis also helps him at work and in raising Miri. with a giant portion of mobility/motorics aids being represented by prosthetics, seeing more variety and exploring it in fiction would also help making a step in normalising disability treatments.
#that's my personal opinion and i just thought about how understanding more about physical disabilities#and how to help people with those aids in case something happens and they ask for help#has furthered my understanding and might even help me in the future if i were ever to experience that#Buddy Daddies Spoilers#Buddy Daddies#Suwa Rei#(again. i want to write Kurusu Rei SO BAD)#text post#Varya rambles#also drawing an orthosis would be real complicated for an animated work so i understand why they chose to hide the arm#but i really like the headcanon of Rei using it sparingly 🥺 not everyone uses them all the time#+ it's also not healthy if worn all the time. looking @ people who'd let their characters sleep with their prostheis on. smh#and this is also NOT a 'you HAVE to do this'! just something I think would be fantastic#...also I'm like. apparently looking @ a start of a fic where Rei uses it?? is my writer's block finally over?!#here's a hoping 🙏buddy daddies such a good anime. not perfect not extremely beautiful. but GOOD in HEART#1k

One of the reasons Deadpool & Wolverine worked so immensely well is because we, the fans, didn’t know ANYTHING about the cameos and spoilers. Does marvel/disney, or obsessive media outlets, realise that WE DONT FUCKING WANT TO KNOW ANYTHING?????? Don’t tell us what’s going to happen or who’s going to show up PLEASE I AM BEGGING!!! We are patient, we want the payoff of being patient. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE I DO NOT WANT TO KNOW WHICH MIRACLE IM GOING TO WATCH COME TO LIFE PLEASE FUCKING SHUT UP!!!!!!!!
#Ryan and the entire team for the movie reaaaally understood the importance of not letting anything leak#and it made the movie better#it made the EXPERIENCE better#marvel spoilers#deadpool and wolverine#mcu spoilers#deadpool cameos#deadpool 3 spoilers#deadpool spoilers#deadpool 3#deadpool#ryan reynolds#kevin feige#disney#marvel disney#mcu#marvel mcu#mcu fandom#marvel#marvel fandom#avengers doomsday#avengers secret wars#fantastic four first steps#captain america brave new world#thunderbolts

I hope this hurts.
You should play Mouthwashing. Like right now. It was very good.
Could not put it down. I was not ready for just how hard the narrative was going to gut punch me. I've had a tough year, and I felt like this game was directly addressing my psyche at times - you work a shit job for what. No more than two slices of cake.
Chilling, horrifying, exhilarating, vindicating. An absolute ride from beginning till end and you won't know what's coming and that's the best part. Short, and organically sweet (no nutrition pouch sweetener added)
Take responsibility. You can fix this. You can fix all of this.
#Mouthwashing#the self restraint I am exercising to not post screenshots that critically spoil the experience#seriously: this game is fucking fantastic#the visuals the music the WRITING its all fucking fantastic#and it's the best type of psychological horror in games#these devs are really onto something special here#this game is an absolute gem#going to be chewing on it for a bit I think#it's really fucking got to me in the best way

I'm not gay but is it weird that I want to kiss Rollo on his (probably very dry) lips? Help
I mean....
Look at him look at this character design, the silouhette, his aura, his presence ??? The robes with the slits on the end ?? The 18th century cunty shoes ?? Puffy sleeves ??? Golden emborideries ?? That insanely cool staff giving him at least +10 charisma !!! (The general priest-ish look...)
And that face omg the tiny bangs + eyebag + "tired of your shit" look and almost constant frown
HOW COULD YOU NOT WANT TO KISS THIS MAN !!
I absolutely understand the feeling, bring him some chaptstick and go for it tbh
#Using one of my favorite jerma gifs to convey how i feel (partially)#Tbh I could rant about him in french for much longer I don't have the right words in english rn to just express#how incredibly beautiful and fantastic his design is to my eyes#Not drawing him for this ask because it really doesn't compare to the og art I love it so so so much#*dreamy sigh*#supporting all the rollo appreciators/lovers#watched hunchback of notre dame for the first time like ?? idk six months ago ?? not too long ago but I knew abt Rollo already hshfhjd#it was an interesting experience... :') Though I loved the animation it was really cool and the intro song is ingrained in my mind

I'm sorry I let down my guard.
[First] Prev <–-> Next
#poorly drawn mdzs#mdzs#xue yang#xiao xingchen#God DAMN this scene was brutal. Season 2 episode 2 is almost nothing but misery and anguish#Helena by Nickle Creek does not quite fit the comic's vibe but it is absolutely a Xue Yang song so I linked it.#The change from “Helena don't walk away...(gentle)” to “HELENA. DON'T WALK AWAY (threat)” is fantastic.#And “Don't waste your pretty sympathy - I'll always be just fine”. Xue Yang core.#Okay now for the real meat. Disclaimer first: *I really like XY.* I think he's a great character. I think his actions consistently-#come from a place of deep trauma. While his reactions and actions put him in a villainous role he is still human about his hurt#and what I'm about to say is NOT intended to be a statement of causality or villianize a group of misunderstood people.#So with that said...Man oh man does Xue Yang have a lot of BPD traits. More that just 'character who is chronically manipulative'.#The impulsivity and emotional reactions and seeking stability makes him feel like he needs that control. What other choice is there?#The part that really gets me is how he *wants* to be safe and happy. But his past experiences tell him how thats impossible#He's the kind of person who goes 'if you don't like me then you better hate me for something substantial". All (pos) or All (neg)#''Love me entirely or Hate me. But don't you dare leave me or forget about me.''#Not at all comfortable saying 'BPD coded'. Im not a psychiatrist. Just that he has TRAITS. Feel free to disagree or add your thoughts.#ppl with bpd also are not a monolith and everyone has very different experiences. Xue yang is very complex. People more so.
