[spockfascinated]

I am dying over this ornament I got on Etsy. It's beautiful and his expressionis killing me.

It's the first one I've received of four I purchased. I'll keep you updated as the others come in.

[zephyrrhiesfyrian]

Misfire: idk what he's just seen, but it probably doesn't bode well for the rest of the Scavengers.

Jazz: he's sitting on Prowl's desk flirtily.

Prowl: he is bad at flirting back so he'll probably just end up flipping the desk. Goddammit, Prowl.

Skids: he's lookin' at Swerve >w<

Ever since i learned about visual snow syndrome i've been so fucking distracted by it. Between the static + image ghosting etc., I have hyperphantasia, and I'm almost like...hallucinating constantly. It's similar to an acid trip where things u imagine are way clearer and also how they 'echo'... Idk when exactly something becomes a visual disturbance and not just imaginary.

Like, mm, how clear does a 'mental image' need to be before it becomes a hallucination? i guess it doesn't really matter since i can't do anything about it, there's no medication or lenses that can block it out lol.

Mostly I've been thinking about how to explain what I see to people & wanting to find the words for it. It's like having a layer of static over your vision, plus an AI video where things morph into each other endlessly, plus you're microdosing acid. And that's what I see 24/7!! I guess at like, 10% opacity; not overwhelming but EXTREMELY distracting! It's hard to focus, reading hurts even tho I love it, and I think it affects my art because I can't just see the fucking canvas I'm seeing a bunch of other shit too!

(Plus the other stuff like how I've got slight double vision so text's always blurry even WITH the new prescription lenses, n starbursts n light sensitivity and ghost images. lol.)

I kinda want to lean in2 it in my art but. 1) it'd give me such a fucking headache i KNOW it; having the wavy moving colours on the page echoed over n over overlapping, guh how would i get it down let alone look at the finished thing. 2) literallyjust drawing normally sucks so fucking bad esp trying to render shit like it's MOVING! toss proportion n anatomy out the window bc i can't fucking telllllllllll and 3) i JUST dont like abstract art i like stylised cartoony expressiony wiggly stuff but aaaugh AUGH i need to draw "good" or "people" will judge me and hate me

ANYWAY whaddeva im logging off and going back 2 staring at the wall n seeing what my brain imagines up for me it's just free performance art babey

[istherewifiinhell]

doing my remedial tf hw [rewatching the ep i feel asleep during]

anyway u can really increase u understanding and appreciation for what goes in to Making A Show Good. by watching bw, arm and en.ergon. which maybe thats not what u want from watching a show. maybe u just want a show that IS good. well too bad.

like okay. bw, late 90s cgi cartoon [an expensive one tho, or so the wiki keeps telling me]. arm, 02 anime but first unified producted between the 2 toys companies. En, 04 cgi anime. same voice cast for all em [as dubbers in the 2nd two]. En being the sequel to arm so they really ought to be the same characters even, tho in pratice its like... ehhhhhh.

like just constantly thinking about, okay what conditions are the VAs performing under, script writers/translators. how that all affects performance

and ofc animation, well does it need fidelity? verisimilitude?? what makes something look cool? or funny? or emotive, or affecting.

and like. these all kinda can just lead u to shitting on en for looking like ass and being made on the fast (and possibly cheap?? idk.)

BUT THEN u also get to think about the designs themselves, which, toy companies. not really remotely the show makers faults [probably?] and in terms of what could have been done to best SERVE the show being made OR the toys in production like. and ill tell u what it wasnt. of making the most bulky greebly design ethos so far and trying o directly translate that as accurately as possible.

cause its just. these 'cell shaded' black outlines behemouths with maybe very little rigging? they cant emote at all. the lip flaps are some kinda 2d thing, and if they need to move their eyes or jaws u know, facial expressiony things, they can add 2d DRAWN shots [not like. more than 3 an ep] for that...

also they dont seem to be doing cgi in the way id think of it like. 3d models in a space with a camera? i think its all or mostly composit? [so they dont get the befits of say, size consistency]

like its kinda notable bw, is the cgi show, and also the era where, there not fucking CARS! theres a lot more... i mean a guy who has two cheetah legs sticking off his back is... weird... but at least his shoulders arent like shot compostionally impedingly wide cause they are the tires and suspension for a truck? u feel? the one character model who IS a vehicle is infact, the stand out for just kinda. weirder, interactable challenges. his sheer Biggness at least IS absolutely reflected as. not a plot point but. story point. he cant inhabite the same spaces as the other characters. they really block out those interactions in a way to show that instead of fudging it.

BUT ALSO like. i dont like the pure like. DESIGNS of arm that much, they DO have a lot, big... hmm i wanna say maximalism [which. lol. not be confused with maximals... which is what u call auto.bots when they are. yes. animals] but its 2d animated with such swag and style [mostly. it was ALSO a rushed production(>_> yikes)] like. the design of what im looking at is SUPERCEEDED by HOW it is presented? ig? or that also they CAN just fudge things. THATS WHAT ANIMATION IS FORRRRR. ohhh who cares what poses this guy could actually make, or how that would effect the camera shot. just kinda. u know. make it cool. make it LOOK GOOD.

and anyway ironies of ironies. a cool picture that is NOT what the toy looks like, but like, at least has its spirit, its probably more likely to make u want the toy, or have. fond appreciation for it lets say. not even getting into like. interesting story and character work that makes/manipulates u into wanting the thing cause like ohhhhhh thats my guy. u know. toyetic media things. bloribofication under capitalism.

tags by op are great too so: what's most wild about this is that ppl constantly ask if this is true when it's like. 100% true and not THAT unusual. im like. is it bc there was an interaction with a child that wasn't in ur dichotomy of “precocious genius” or “screaming infant” bc idk how to tell u this. 7 year olds learn fractions. idk the exact age of this child but. he was like around 7. i WILL say 2 things are unusual in this interaction: 1. i am a teacher in the wild and have worked in education for 15+ years hence why MY response is the way it is and 2. whomever is the caregivers of this child. is ALSO a fucking HERO. like. IMMEDIATELY that language and expression is SUCH a green flag& other 2nd grade teachers (myself being one) will be like - oh yeah u get like 1 or 2 of these every year but they're not common and good lord every time i hear a kid talk like that. im like. where are ur caregivers bc i will french kiss ur caregivers easy tells that i work in education from this post:-> calls the person he's with ''his adult''-> gives the child 2 options so they feel in control of the thing that they are nervous about-> validates the child's feelings while also providing additional information to make the situation less scary. (rather than negating the feeling by saying ''it's not scary he's gentle' i say he's gentle but that it IS scary how big he is. i do not push for the child to touch the dog or 'get over it''. i explain WHY he's so big (not to hurt u but to go fast) and then respect the kid's fear. -> uses the term ''safe in ur body'' which is a thing i picked up from a pedagogy teacher of mine where w/young kids we ask them to ground their feelings in their actual bodies bc it helps them language stuff better when they don't have the words it helps them practice self-regulation and helps them identify what they're feeling faster - ''i got hot in my hands so i knew i was angry' anyway was thinking about this interaction today and got misty eyed again bc ... yeah.....

kids remind me, often, of the things i've taught myself out of.

i have a big dog. he looks like a deer. he is taller than most young children. while we were on a trail the other day, a boy coming our direction saw us and froze. he took a step back and said: "i'm feeling nervous. your - your dog is kind of big."

goblin and i both stopped walking immediately. "he is kind of a big dog," i admitted. "he's called a greyhound. they are gentle but they are pretty tall, which is kind of scary, you're right. their legs are so long because they are made for running fast. i am sorry we scared you. would you like us to stand still while you move past us, or would you feel more safe in your body if we move and you stay still?'

"oh. i didn't know that about - greyhounds. i think i ... i want to stay still," he said. at this point, his adult had caught up to us. "i'm nervous about the dog," he told her, "so i'm - i'm gonna stay still." she didn't argue. she didn't make fun of him. she just smiled at him and at me and held his hand while goblin and i, with as wide of a berth as we could make, crept our way through.

behind us, i heard him exhale a deep breath and kind of laugh - "he was really big, huh? she said it's because greyhounds have to go fast."

"he was big," she said. "i understand why that could have made you a little scared."

"yeah. next time i - next time do you think i could maybe ask to touch him? when - i mean, next time, maybe, if i'm not nervous."

later, going to a work event, in the big city, i stood outside, trembling. my social anxiety as a caught bird in my chest. i took a deep breath and turned to my coworker. she's not even really my friend yet. i told her: "i feel nervous about this. i am not used to meeting new people, ever since covid."

she laughed, but not in a mean way. she said she was nervous too. she reached her hand out and held mine, and we both took another deep breath and walked in like that, interlinked. a few people asked us - together? - and i told the truth: i feel nervous, and she's helping. over and over i watched people relax too, admitting i feel really kind of shy lately actually, thank you for saying that.

the next time i go to an event, and i feel a little scared, i ask right away: wanna hold hands? this feels a little dangerous. i hesitate less. i don't hide it as much. i watch for other people who are also nervous and say - it's kinda hard, huh?

i know, logically, i'm not good at asking for help. but i am also not good at noticing when i need help. i've trained myself out of asking completely, but i've also trained myself to never accept my own fears or excuses. i have trained myself to tamp down every anxiety and just-push-through. i don't know what i'm protecting myself from - just that i never think to admit it to anyone.

but every person on earth occasionally needs comfort. every person on earth occasionally needs connection. many of us were taught independence is the same thing as never needing anything.

each of us should have had an adult who heard - i feel nervous and held our hand and asked us how we could be helped to feel safe. no judgement, and no chiding. many of us did not. many of us were punished for the ways that we seemed "weak".

but here is something: i am an adult now. and i get nervous a lot, actually. and if you are an adult and you are feeling a little nervous - come talk to me. we can hold hands and figure out what will help us feel safe in our bodies. and maybe, next time, if we're brave, we can pet the dog that's passing.

Imma be real with you don’t bring up hetalia in class if you suspect your classmates don’t like it

Yup, that's valid. If you think about basic respect in our class, I get what you mean (under the cut I'll be ranting about it lol. Don't read it).

...but that's a little complicated here. Even though my classmates should be able to show basic respect during a class, it fails often (mostly with creating noises, expressing destructive opinion/criticism out of the blue) or basically, they seem to closed off to understand situations they aren't in (with being racist, homophobic, or just completely ignoring when someone asks them to do x or y/stop doing x or y) (we're talking about Hungary btw).

So, basic respect is already a thing I can't really rely on. That doesn't mean I don't respect my classmates, because I do. I bear their self-expressiony stuff, even if I don't agree with it.

But yeah, there are times when I simply don't care about what they'll think. (It doesn't matter what I think, so why should their thoughts matter any more? This wasn't my reason when I acted, but it could'vd been.)

And I know this sounds bad and ugly, and I get that bringing up Hetalia isn't okay if we're talking about respect (I guess the propaganda member in me sometimes appears though). There was a time about four years ago when I lacked every respect towards my classmates (because I was young, stoopid, cringe and a tad lonely. So yeah, I fully regret what I've done then...o.o). And I know how awful that kind of behaviour is, and I won't do it again.

Luckily, I really am not repeating that time. Hetalia comes up really rarely in general. That also means that I express my Hetalia stuff a little less than I want to (you could say that I could try making friends online, that actually care about Hetalia. I tried but I seem to be awful doing that... so nope.)

Showing my class Italy's Marukaite Chikyuu was an accident actually. Our class needed to write a song about itself, and I took the task. Italy's Marukaite Chikyuu was the instrument, and the text wasn't the lyric. Our music teacher helped to practice it, but she told us to listen to the original version first, so that's how it happened, during a music class lol.

The second time was just before going to winter break, and it was intentional. I take the responsibility for that, and I know it wasn't the right thing to do.

Now... that brings up another stuff, which is the egoistical world. I experience that working in groups is getting harder a bit, because people don't like to adapt or they often don't follow rules that are valid and necessary in order to make a class work. And I don't like this kind of perspective.

But if I appear to behave in ways that feel ignorant or destructing to others, please tell me how to change, thanks.

I hope you didn't read this far, because this text got really disgusting by the end of it, ew

Most important aspects of a guitarist's playing

Most important aspects of a guitarist's playing Hey!I'm interested to see how a list of the "greatest guitarists" would turn out if people rated each aspect of their playing, rather than the guitarist overall. I feel like it'd help quell the discussions around speed vs feel etc, and maybe result in a ranking that feels a bit more unanimous. Most current lists start with "it's not all about technique, it's also about impact on the musical world," and then proceed to create a list entirely based on the latter!I know I know, ratings and comparisons are uncool and not the point of enjoying music etc haha. Many will see this as a total waste of time. But the discussions these sorts of question bring about are always good fun and sometimes educational.Also, I'm a decade into an audio career that has made me feel a bit too adult about music. Even just considering this question myself has made me get back into listening to shredders and all the innovators throughout history. Feeling much more of that excitement of when I was a teen and learning about the stringy stringy world.So anyway, currently the areas I've thought of rating 'em on are:- Musicality- Technical Ability- Tone- Creativity/Innovation- Adaptability- Theory/Flavour- Memorability- ExpressionI kind of didn't wanna add too many more because if I started asking people to join me in rating them, it'd be a lot of work haha.I suspect a lot of people would want improvisation to be on there. I'm weird about improvisation. I don't know, maybe it seems unfair to get lower points if you're not so good at doing things on the fly haha. I have a feeling I'm wrong though, let me know. Anything else I'm missing?To reiterate; This is just a bit of silly fun and discussion. I'm not trying to eat any souls dw.
