I don’t know how to say this exactly but like… fandom and show are kinda weird about Mel and Ekko and it is very much rooted in racism
#like do guys do know that ‘yay this character is perfect in every single way and the only ones with braincells<3’ is not#the progressive statement you think it is#a step up from the insane misogynoir during s1 era but still not great#it’s how nobody really focuses on mel or ekko’s characters on their own and water them down to being ‘perfect#never did anything wrong ever’. which they are but like… how to say this…#i feel arcane didn’t allow them to be fully fleshed characters#i saw this in st with lucas where he’s watered down to lumax#and gets some mvp scenes but that’s not a compensation for actually giving them proper attention and fully fleshing them out#i might be the minority but mel is a step up from ekko since she had more of an arc but again they barely fleshed it out before making her#op enough to defeat leblanc (was it leblanc?) in her own domain#like that is literally insulting to mel it’s a cop out and just reducing her to a cool moment#in compensation for not giving enough attention to her black rose arc#it wasn’t cathartic because there was no build up to those moments#arcane critical#arcane criticism#ekko#mel medarda#ekko arcane

Necrozma and Terapagos need more love hurghhh
#I am an avid gen 5/7/9 enjoyer#i love me some eldtrich beings whose power is stored in crystals (the world will end when they join forces)#They really did well with Necrozma#I do wish that was part of the SM post game. Still great games regardless! Nec had a good build-up#you get to see what necrozma actually does (open worm holes) Wished they did that more with terapagos. The ID brainrot is real#ac rambles#terapagos#ultra necrozma

IM FREEEEEE
#(FROM PROJECTS)#personal#the engineering chronicles#WILL HOPEFULLY NEVER NEED TO SLEEP THREE NIGHTS ON THE FLOOR OF THE ENGINEERING BUILDING AGAIN!!!#one class the final project was to build a karaoke machine which my partner and i had planned on making look like actual speakers and#microphone but we couldn’t find the stuff in time and her mom made a joke abt singing into hairbrushes and we decided to take that and#run lol we used a pink sparkly makeup box to store our circuit and cut out holes for the speakers and decorated it with makeup and put the#hairbrush mics inside and it was very fun actually and our class voted us as one of the groups to go to project day which was pretty cool!!#project day did get canceled bc of. asnow day which was unfortunate especially considering we stayed up until 4am the night before#preparing our documents for it and trying to perfect the karaoke machine when we could have been putting that time toward project number#2 😐 but whatever we still get our extra credit and i can say i qualified for it so im happy enough#then project 2 was for another class but we’re lab partners in both (+ another guy for this project) and it was digital monster pet so we#made a dragon i was mostly on design so i hand CADed the whole thing which was living hell if i never want to lay eyes on solidworks#again but also he came out very cute after MUCH hasle putting him together with all the wires and components bc our wires from the kit are#so bad they’re constantly getting disconnected from each other which we didn’t know would happen bc the labs we usually do we don’t have to#connect them together like that since you’re not routing them thru bodies etc and they’ve worked great until now but anywya.#i did the lcd faces and the light sensor and a couple other things + a lot of the code was copy and paste from past labs and fitting it to#suit the project but for the most part it was a shit ton of hardware on my end while she and the other guy managed the rest of the code#which i really wish i could have been more involved with but oh well. as it is though he’s my baby i birthed him <3 we’re planning on#meeting up over weekends next semester to change some stuff and add other extra features that we missed we got a decent grade 85% but we#all agreed we don’t want to leave him like this we want to add the extra features we had come up with and also i think we should switch out#our motors for servos bc the motors we were required to use#instead suck they’re not strong at all compared to what a servo can do for you. also we want to make it so you can not only pet him which w#already have with light sensors but also wash him with a Hall effect sensor and magnet so like we’d stick the sensor inside and the magnet#inside a little cad brush or sponge is what im envisioning and i have an expression in mind for what we’d do then. also paint him and#redesign the platform he stands on bc it’s rlly cramped and also make a pcb bc we only have him with the microcontroller and breadboards rn#and i might mess with his face piece a bit too im not sure. oh and speakers!!! those were technically a requirement but we didn’t get them#done on time but i want to make him play music sooooo bad so definitely that. anyway want to be more involved in the software when we do#all this. pretty excited actually :]

I am once again begging people to stop trying to make my post about grieving for someone who's become a vampire into a metaphor about being insensitive or bigoted towards real-life queer people. I absolutely understand the impulse to read it as metaphorical! I also find sympathy in fictional monstrosity! However! Queer people, as a group, do not generally kill and eat humans.
Thank you for your time.
#also. vampires are pretend and made-up and do not exist. except in the animal kingdom.#and saying 'you can't think about pretend made-up things in this way because it MUST be a metaphor for your real-life feelings>#<about THIS specific real-life thing!' is uh. you guys know why that's not a great mindset to have right#thoughtcrime isn't real yall#also to everyone who's smugly like 'well op clearly you've never loved someone who had dementia'#a) how the fuck would you know that you smug fucking self-righteous cunt. why the fuck would you think that's okay to say to someone#b) Selfish! This Man Found Time To Build A Birdhouse While Jon-Benet Ramsey Is Still Missing#i am. so tired.#anyway this is your periodic reminder that OP of that viral post has to see all of your replies reblogs and tags#and that OP of that viral post is a human fucking being

THE WEIRD AL-CANA - 16. THE TOWER- ONE OF THOSE DAYS
---
we've all had one of these, right? not much to say about this card that doesn't speak for itself- i did reference that one photo of a dude mowing his grass in front of an approaching hurricane for al here, though. it felt appropriate. the tower has always been a very funny card to me
this one goes out to everyone just trying to make it through the freakin' day
[Prev Card]
#alloyart#weird al#weird al yankovic#weird al-cana#ive had a week fairly accurately summed up by this so this came from the heart#when it feels like the literal apocalypse is happening and your dumb lil ass still has to get out of bed and brush your teeth#do it for him (tm)#also ough im still not great at drawing buildings but i try

Looks like that video is about a month & a half after The Trade and trevors broken ankle 😣
re: this video… anon 😭 i had suspicions but it is so much worse to have them confirmed that really was like. trevor’s first Public Appearance without jamie AND post-broken ankle which is traumatic in and of itself no wonder every beat reporter was like ‘oh yeah trevor’s just devastated’
wouldn’t you be miserable too if your best friend just got traded and your body betrayed you and what if it was maybe all your fault!!!
#bestie thank you so much for fact-checking me 🙏🙏🥰🥰 i love when y’all come in my inbox & answer the questions i yell into the void of my tag#we are Suffering about trevor TOGETHER in this house. if i scrolled all the way to the bottom of my drafts i think i could find even more#heartbreaking content from before The Trade but we don’t need to suffer that much otherwise the penguin cup of tea is really irish coffee#confirms ALL of my theories about miserable trevor leaning into mason for comfort because in some universes that’s THEIR boyfriend who left#liv in the replies#trevor zegras#mason mctavish#need to go lay on the floor about this one folks. do you think trevor said he would only do it if mason came if he could sit next to mason#right at the end where people were rushing out not stopping to talk tired by the end of the line and not even thinking just to guarantee he#wouldn’t get asked anything because he still has a hard time believing it’s real he keeps thinking jamie’ll be there especially w/his ankle#i’m sure he doesn’t have a great time with stairs so he probably will nap on the couch sometimes and that moment right when he first wakes#up to the bang of the door and he doesn’t quite know he’s awake yet and he thinks it’s jamie coming in? heartbreaker right there bud. sorry#ALSO because I can’t say it and leave it alone I almost put that last bit strictly in the tags but like. there’s gotta be some part of#trevor that knows it’s nothing to do with him but still naïvely believes that if he’d maybe been there if he hadn’t been injured things#could have worked out differently if he’d been there and it’s his fault his ankle broke and do you remember all the interviews jamie gave#about how you never think you’ll be traded and how strange it is to be moving and now i need you to take that naïveté times 1000 for trevor#who of course he never even pictures jamie leaving they were building the core together!!! why would they ever get rid of him!! and if only#trevor had been there to show how important jamie was. what would he have done? literally nothing but that does not stop the emotional guil#from enveloping trevor like a rain cloud and making him sit in mason’s apartment with ice cream bowl in hand. holistic treatment l

lizzie get two wolves 👍
#strato.txt#oil painting#wip#im worried ive unbalanced the composition w the second one on the right tho... its so much closer to the edge#ugh whatever. aunt lizzie is the focus here#i wish i knew what she actually looked like this is just cobbled together from general features of my family#solid build... dark curly hair... bigass ears. she could be one of my cousins. she could be me#ok rq im gonna lay out the story in the tags for anyone who hasnt seen the previous lizzie art#my great-something aunt lizzie was disabled and couldnt walk very well and she died young#she wanted to see the second floor of the farm house real bad but no one ever carried her up there and she died before seeing it#they buried her in a long white dress somewhere down at the creek. we dont know where her graves lost unfortunately#the night she was buried something wearing a white dress walked into the house and up the stairs and disappeared#and sometimes you can hear her down around the creek screaming#somewhere along the line wolves got mixed into the imagery for me#my uncle told me a story about another 'white thing' that was wolfish and would jump on cars#so i just assumed lizzie was a werewolf my whole life#anyways. i think her staying after she died was a manifestation of her desire for autonomy. maybe#maybe if shed had modern accommodations she wouldnt have felt the need to stick around. or maybe she would have idk#either way i think death afforded her control over her own desires in a way she hadnt experienced before#and i think thats why she still hangs around the creek#i hope she would like this. maybe ill take it down there and leave it out for a night when its finished so she can see

today i succeeded at a quest called Enable Your Girlfriend To Eat Dinner Before 3AM and i feel reasonably good about it
#the quest had various perils#mainly 'they forgot the tupperware of leftovers in our kitchen and i had to bring it them at work'#which i scaled handily. and even managed to find a time window for them to pick it up when they were not in a BL3 sterile suit#and therefore unable to receive texts! total success#box opener#now we work two buildings apart and i had to go in to the lab anyway. so this was not one of the great trials of the age#but i still feel useful and filled with triumph#theres something very satisfying‚ when you are a person who constantly makes minor stupid disorganization errors‚#about being able to completely rescue someone else from any consequences of a minor disorganization-based error.#you can just unhappen it! it never occurred! no mild problems to be had!!#also 🌸 is deliriously beautiful and perfect and i got to SEE THEM at an UNEXPECTED TIME#which was thrilling for me. as it always is.

Applying to an apartment with little income and terrible credit score, in hopes that they'll be desperate enough to take me
#im not even getting my hopes up for this one folks#but this same company rook me when i had no rental history so maybe?#unlikely for the aforementioned piss poor income and credit score#im just praying they remember me feom when i used to rent from them and liked me enough then to take me again#the bathroom is not in the apartment btw#that's the wildest thing. like its a basic studio with a kitchen closet and main area#but you have to go across the hall. to the private bathroom#im hoping they realize that thats wild and give me the apartment#i neeeeed to leave my parents house. and i really miss that city the apartment is in#i wish there was a little essay section where i could tell the landlord how much i like the city#and that ill get a better job once i live there and my parents are going to pay my first month and security deposit#that would be nice#i applied knowing that i won't get it but also knowing that i cant get it if i dont try#mostly i just miss that city#there was a really nice coffee shop within walking distance of my apartment#(the apartment i applied to is next door to the building i used to live in so same area which is great)#but i didnt have wifi so i would go there a lot to do work. it was so cozy in the winter especially#and i went on a lot of walks. so i wiuld swing by there and grab a drink to sip on my walk#and it was literally within sight of a great lake. a literal great lakw of Michigan lol#i loved walking along the lake on a nice day. or a windy day and just watch the waves crash#and my favorite band is feom that city so i got to see so many of their performances. and theyre a small band so the most i ever paid#was $50 and that was for the vip package. i saw them for $10 once. and free once. and $50 for the vip#its a big art and music city and i love it so much. i miss it so fucking much and i regret leaving#but at least it made me realize that no other city is for me. that city is my home#oh and it was literally right next to a bug beautiful library that i loved to wander. i still have my library card from there#mostly used it to print stuff and you have to pay at the box next to the printer. and one time i forgot to pay. i still feel bad about that#but i dont want to reminisce too much cuz i know i wont get it#im trying to pay off my credit cards to bring up my credit score but its slow going#its much nearer my gf and all my friends so i would love to live near them. rn im hours away from about everyone i love#i ran out of tags. maybe pray for me if you pray? or just hope for me. i dont want to let myself want this but its there

I'm sure I won't be the first to point this out but I really admire the way Halsey was able to create songs which were explicitly inspired by certain artists without ever once losing the ineffable essence that makes her art hers. I'm not on instagram so I missed the whole parade of influences thing - I got that the gist of the album would be this sort of muddle of identities and eras but didn't know each song would have a specific influence. Listening to the album without the full context, I appreciated the scope of its diversity but I never once felt like anything was a copy or an inauthentic expression. It felt strangely cohesive in its chaos and most of all it was, quintessentially, a Halsey album. It's fascinating how, in leaning so hard into this idea of impersonation, they actually proved more than ever what an incredibly distinctive artist (and human being) they are.
#Halsey#The Great Impersonator#listening to this album was such a strange experience#throughout most of it I was liking it but I wasn’t emotional#but then all of a sudden towards the end I started to get so teary and emotional#not because of any one song but the build-up of the incredibly intimate journey the entire album had taken me on#and I haven’t re-listened to the entire album again but weirdly I have been thinking about it A LOT??#my fave tracks if anyone cares: Dog Years; Arsonist; Darwinism; Life of the Spider; Lonely is the Muse#listened to Lonely is the Muse again on my walk the other day and started sobbing lol#the letters to god are also amazing and gut-wrenching and the way they pin the album together is genius#ALSO also do yourself a favour and watch her 4 vevo live vids#i think they're half the reason I cant stop thinking about Halsey right now cos what the fuck??? what a fucking performer#ANYWAY jesus christ#if i cant have love i want power is probably still my favourite Halsey album but this one is really something special#my sister has not succumbed to my bullying so I havent had anyone to spill my many thoughts to sorryyyyyy#bullying her to hurry up and listen to the album I mean lol

brother crab's spring 2024 first impressions: tadaima, okaeri
slapping my wrist rest against my desk screaming THIS IS THE CUTEST SHIT I'VE EVER SEEN ok. ok ok so
i read i think the first 1 or 2 volumes waaay back and didn't really remember anything specific, but did remember that it was very cute and wholesome. then when i heard about the anime announcement i was like WHAT wow good for them, then when i heard asnm had been cast i was like WHAT i must reread immediately
so i did i reread it just a short while back and ue ue ue soung of crying it was even cuter than i remembered, i loved it to bits, hikari is the cutest moe blob in the world
suffice it to say i was really looking forward to this one, and the first ep of the adaptation has not disappointed at all! i feel like it's an excellent adaptation so far, really looking forward to more. the casting is just ugh chef's kiss, perfect really. i had it in the back of my mind that matsuo was torichan so while i was doing my reread i could literally hear him and it is as perfect a fit as i'd expected lmao
anyway tl;dr CUTE AS FUCK
#crab watches#spring 2024#first impressions#tadaima okaeri#i'm still a bit stunned an omegaverse is getting an adaptation at all ngl#but this one is a VERY safe choice#setting aside the omegaverse and the bl factor it is basically just as slice-of-life romance and i LOVE it as that#like we've had a lot of good romance series lately#but so many of them focus on the getting together#(some of the ones i've enjoyed more like horimiya do have more of the being together part which is great)#but here with tadaima okaeri we get to go STRAIGHT INTO the being together part#the being a family part in fact!#and i really love that#i think it's not going to be everyone's thing#not just because it's omegaverse but because it's very sweet and extremely low drama#but to me it's just perfect. watching this family grow (not just the literal married couple and their kids family#but the found family they build in their community as well) really is such a treat#ok. ok enough rambling lol i still have other series to catch up on#UWAGHHHHHHHHHH I'M REALLY HAPPY WITH THIS ADPATATION SO FAR#LOOKING FORWARD TO THE UDON FAILGUYS SCENE

Went to the Wilds of Eldraine Prerelease with friends tonight and had a freaking blast 💕
#selfie#selfies#I straight up only won 2 games and I had a great time. Everyone was really nice again 💕#Building a deck is still overwhelming but it was easier than the first time!! (what I made first was hot garbage tho)#My friend helped me fix it by removing and replacing an entire color like 5 minutes before the next round 😂😂😂😂#Once again ended up with some insane pulls that feel undeserving to end up with me because I don't know shit about fuck 😂#Still really nervous and making dumb mistakes when I'm over thinking myself but I had WAY more fun this time around#AND I GOT TO USE MY CUSTOM CARD SLEEVES#The cute smothering tithe 🥺🥺#Yeah this ruled! I'm so glad I did the scary thing#pink hair

I finally got to play dnd and holy shit I can't wait for the next session
#it was so fun but also impromptu as fuck which made me a bit nervous because i was not prepared lol#but it was still such a great time#i also realized how much i knew about dnd while helping everyone build characters#everyone was shocked when i was like oh yeah I've never actually played before#i have just consumed a concerning amount of critical role and dimension 20 and spent a lot of time looking at spells and subclasses lol#also i had like three ideas of characters to play and i originally settled on a grave cleric but the subclass was in a different book#so i ended up going with my wildfire druid who was pretty fleshed out but i realized i never named her#so i quickly tried to find a name in the middle of helping people build their characters#and when we actually started playing i straight up forgot my name and was oh shit that me lol#at least my wildfire spirit already had his name picked out lol#but that shit was so fun and we have a good mix of goofy characters and semi serious characters which is gonna make shit super interesting#although during our session zero trial fight my girlfriend did make me go unconscious but she fudged the numbers so i at least didnt die#at least my girlfriend is a gracious dm lol#personal

#it's my last shift in 2 days and then i'm leaving this job i'm actually so happy i no longer has to work there! 🎉#i need to find a new one asap of course but i never had energy to do so on my off days so i'll focus on that now#i've endured the hardest shifts with freezing -25-30 °C where the heater conditioner did absolutely nothing#shifts with the roof leaking trying to not let the orders of customers get wet constantly wiping shelves throughout 2 days on top#of everything i has to do#these past 2 days sewage system froze and i had no water to wash my hands or use the restroom properly..🤦♀️#i know the wet hand wipes are bad for ecology but man they continously saved me and also i had to wash my hands using water from kettle and#i had to do it outside freezing of course because the sink and restroom are in another building and i didnt have time to constantly walk#there.. and this on top of 2 last weeks of december being especially batshit crazy stressful and having heated karen encounters each shift.#and it was so hard on me because i am a nonconfrontational person and i don't like arguing with people#but i learned so much in these months of working there and for that experience i am still grateful :")#it's bittersweet that i won't see the friendly regulars that were always kind to me anymore tho 😔 and my coworker came yesterday#and we spoke for like an hour or so and he said he is is sad that i'm leaving because i'm such a nice person and a great coworker 🥺#ngl this made me sad too but life goes on.. he said he'll be leaving in a month too#said he didn't think that i'll leave first 😂#i woke up almost an hour ago from 3 bg3 related dreams in a row btw 😂🤦♀️ i need to play 🙈 ok i need to get up first..😭#tbd
