Books of 2024: WHEN AMONG CROWS by Veronica Roth.
I finished this last night! It's a shortie (only 166 pages!), and the first thing I've read by Roth since DIVERGENT. Since I didn't vibe with that one, I tried not to be overly optimistic about this one, but I was pleasantly surprised by how much I enjoyed it--it was a great little bite-sized modern urban fantasy set in Chicago that draws on Polish folklore.
Cool magic system(s), cool monsters, cool underground boxing ring featuring said cool monsters and cool magic, thoughtfully drawn characters (Dymitr and Ala and Niko, my beloveds,), complicated Sibling and Family Relationships, a little bit gay, VERY bloody (featuring ah. fingernails. and. spines.), an emotional gut punch at the end, and y'know the more I list here the more I think I like it?? She (Roth) also acknowledges Witcher in her post-book shout-outs, which. yeah. If you like Witcher, I think this is worth checking out!

People keep on asking for more Baby Robin and Papadile so here is more Baby Robin and Papadile. Now never ask anything from me ever again
#My art#One Piece#Long post#Sir Crocodile#Nico Robin#Alternatively panel 5 would've been a close up of Crocodile's face from Robin's POV where he looks like he's giving her a death glare#Not intentionally he's just a big scary bastard with a Resting Murder Face and Robin is a small traumatized child#But I wanted to focus on the silliness of the moment so you get the goofy version instead#IDK man there's just something very funny to me about the idea of Robin just randomly info-dumping about a subject she's read about#And Crocodile being like ''?????????????????????? The fuck you talking about??''#Robin leaves the ship's kitchen and Crocodile just stares at the tomato like ''...It's a fruit? Forreal?''#(Meanwhile Robin is sweating bullets like ''I called his favorite vegetable a FRUIT right in his FACE he's going to KILL ME'')#Robin grew extra feet from the bottom of her feet to reach the counter and that actually isn't me trying to explain bad art away#In the original Papadile comic there was a panel of Robin doing the dishes with extra feet to reach the sink but I cut it out#(It was a stress relief comic I did not feel like drawing a complicated background in detail) (BUT YES I THOUGHT OF IT)#Nico Robin Age 11 is *more* than capable of cooking Crocodile just does not trust her with his food. At least not yet#She did start doing the dishes unprompted and continues to do so (mostly out of fear). Croc told her she didn't have to but allows it#IDK a lot of people seem to headcanon Crocodile as incapable of cooking and like. Surely Mr ''I don't trust people'' knows how to cook#Like he doesn't have to be a master chef or anything but and maybe he enjoys not HAVING to cook (pain in the ass with one hand + knife/hook#But surely he can cook decent enough. SURELY#Botanists don't @ me I know the ''tomato is a fruit'' thing isn't fully accurate this is just a silly little haha comic

Wouldn't leave my brain until I made it
#sleep drunk musical#cr downfall#cr 3 e 101#was it 101?#im going to pretend it is#cr judicator#cr 3#critical role#like forreal why would he see those horrifc things and be like#you know what im going to do?#there is no reason ayden#so the thing about the judicators are that (i think) they chose this? they agreed to it? its an honor?#which. fair i guess.#but theyre still people who have been mutilated#i wonder if they know before hand#or in the same way that its an honor. they are unaware of just how gruesome it is#we know whats under there. but thats after they got opened in a science lab#i wonder if theyre scared#i wonder if they try to back out#do judicators dream?#they must#do they dream of their former lives?#do they see the people who love them?#do they see the people they still love?#cr the dawnfather#cr ayden

Ouuugh hey Fabriz nation (qpr AND romantic, whichever you please, I don’t care) they’re letting me make one of those community things do y’all want one? I think it could be funny
#kiri rambles#fabriz#qpr Fabriz#I guess I should tag that specifically to? idrc I like both#as an aroacespec person in a relationship with another aroacespec person that MAY be a qpr but also may not be these two are so special to-#-me in this way.#so anyways I have very little idea how it works but it seems like it could be funny so#also it would maybe give a space for people to not get. fucking. death threats over think two characters should maybe hold hands or hangout-#-sometimes so that’d be a plus#fabian aramais seacaster#fabian seacaster#riz gukgak#yeah I’ll do character tags it’s relevant#also IF YOURE BEING HATEFUL CAN YOU JUST. NOT. OR DO IT QUIETLY?#LIKE JUST BLOCK ME FORREAL I DO NOT CARE. IM AROACESPEC AND I THINK THEY COULD HOLD HANDS SOMETIMES. IN AN AROACESPEC WAY#btw if I get sent nasty shit it’s going immediately in the fucking bin 👍 I literally do not care#my ability to not give a shit about insults is beyond your comprehension

you ever see somebody be so objectively wrong about your blorbo that you have to block them on sight
#yes eridan is incel material but there is always one thing keeping him from becoming a 4chan type and that is that he believes those people#to be inherently lesser than him and will not associate with them. you know no matter how bad it gets this mf takes a two hour bubble bath#every night with ten $100 soaps and a custom microfiber towel with his name embroidered on it on cursive#you KNOW he wouldn't be caught dead in the gamer fit. be so forreal#the closest you can possibly get to that while honoring canon would be 2010's hipster and even then he would still make an effort to#differentiate from the Poors#NOBODY UNDERSTANDS HIM LIKE I DO!!!#post#and i guess I'll tag#eridan ampora#fun fact after various (my catchall reblog tag) stim (which ive reblogged several hundred of) post (my post tag) and fave (my favorites tag)#eridan ampora is my fifth most used tag. i love them like a child

every once in a while I remember this scene from Moulin & it kills me. FECing is now a regular part of my vocabulary & no one even knows what it means because I'm a chronic doesn't-public-fics dumbass. FEC me
#Danny Phantom#maybe I'll publish it anyways#this is supposed to be a psych horror inspired by House of Leaves btw. can you tell? can you tell this is supposed to be horror?#you know what i'm gonna reread the entire thing to see if Danny ever actually says fuck. before going completely unhinged of course#this is based on how i act when sleep deprived. i go unhinged. all anxiety is like gone#& i'm doing all my shit without worrying about consequences or people thinking i'm weird or what#anyways i just think it would be funny if the only time Danny ''swears'' is when he's saying FEC#i need to find the post Moulin is based off of. it's such an old post idk if anyone even remembers it. but i do#it wasn't a horror concept but it had that potential#forreal if anyone can find that post explaining FentonWorks' constantly changing layout i'd love you forever#though considering no one found the hole in Danny's wall post i'm. not getting my hopes up

Honestly atp the only reason I'm growing my nails and keeping them nice and long is cause hehe... scratching him when. When.
#forreal theres satisfaction in going to the bathroom afterwards and washing off some blood from under the nails#besides if I scratch hard enough I'll leave him marked for life. hm. hey google how to sharpen my nails.#do you know. how it feels to leave a scar on someone.#you could run from me and find other people but one day theyll ask you about the scar and youll remember me#well if you get it you get it. if you dont you dont.#tw heterosexuality

got an ask that I legitimately can't tell if it's trolling or not. Poe's Law.
fictional character may be a war criminal but god forbid I make a joke insinuating he might be a transphobe!
I'm wheezing. there are so many layers here.
-the fact that if you spend 5 seconds googling ER character model datamining you find out that it's false (this is the one thing that would make me say it's deliberate trolling except!! People are this stupid.)
-the idea that having a binary trans person as a lackey means Notorious Pompous Arse With Superiority Complex considers them Valid
-the idea that knowing about the existence of binary trans people is the same as knowing about non-binary people
-the fact that I got this intensely pedantic response to a silly comic I made about pedantry.
If this is a joke, congrats anon I love you you are the funniest person on this website. masterfully crafted. you have distilled tumblr down to its essence.
#enzel.txt#do you really need top contender for World's Shittiest Video Game Dad to affirm your gender#it's just. I can't explain how funny this is.#the idea that someone thinks an offhand joke i made in the tags is a forreal serious headcanon and they have to refute it with 'evidence'#I would absolutely say it's a joke except I have *seen* people say shit like this with their whole chest

Mari really did gain confidence in her ability to talk shit fjdkksa. She tried in season 1 and failed so miserably. The way she tried to joke with akilah about varsity only seating and immediately had to backtrack to be like wait wait I'm just kidding! Because she was too serious. And then she adapted to when she was talking shit about dead cabin guy and lottie sharing secrets. Everything about her demeanor in that scene showed how she was Trying to put on a show and so it was so easy for lottie to hit back because she just Failed. But she found her niche and that's just being herself instead of Trying to be something else fkdoeow.
#she just wants to fit in guys can't you tell!#i really do personally relate to mari being like oh this is how u get people to laugh so this is what#i will do. so i can make friends#and ig it worked somewhere she got akilah to fall for her fkdkska.#muse: mari#meta: mari#funniest character on the show forreal#try hard ❤️

See my problem is like . I wanna have side blogs and post to them frequently, especially a lot of reblogs I wanna spread around the art I like. But I also love having something to say abt the art. I gotta tag it with something silly or niceys bc as an artist myself that’s like. The only reason I ever post my shit publicly. Is for the funny little comments :3 if you ever put a funny little comment or nice thing on smthn I made, I have that shit saved in a document, I’m serious.
But anyway. If I don’t have anything to say in the moment the post just sits in my drafts, and I really don’t wanna just have my organizational tag on that shit, that’s so lame. And you know maybe I shouldn’t be saying anything maybe these other artists don’t wanna hear shit from me ! Idk man that’s just my mentality. I feel like I’ve gotta leave a little comment ok??
And then I have the issue of the post being in drafts for months, when I finally post it if it’s a reblog it seems like it came outta nowhere. reblogger gotta be getting that notif like “I posted that four months ago, what?” or whatever.
#my thoughts and feelings for today;;#like my failed mlp blog has crazy drafts#I was just too nervous to post that shit#I gotta stop being scared about being weird on the weirdo website fr#don’t tell but I got a tf2 blog in the works rn it’s gonna go crazy if I get over this shit#I get worried people are thinking a lot abt my tags and whatever#cos that’s what I do with tags I get I think abt them#WHATEVERRR#Brother I NEED 2 fix up my bio forreal#if you were here for the httyd phase you’re real asf#you have no idea how many drafts I have from that phase#the fandom fucking sucked so that def contributed#but like I was so nervous to just say my thoughts on it#I’m still probably not gonna say my thoughts unless prompted tho#less bc I’m nervous and more bc I just can’t be bothered#like I have that fnc post (actually it’s multiple posts) drafted but who knows if it’ll ever see the light of day#ik people wanna see it but it’s scary to interact with fandom people#sometimes they normal most of the time they are Not#I’m not saying normal we just a different weird#alright I’m making breakfast now bye

I love lingering when it comes to introducing oc story and lore because ohh oh ohhhhh it’s fun seeing reactions to plot points and discussing them and what not. But it’s also scary because I won’t like it if I’m judged for a story direction because people don’t like a character or smth. But also who caresssss I call it a jumpscare to see horrible people fully comprehend that they’re horrible and try to fix themselves and build themself from the ground up. I call it that fucked up people can realize their wrongs and change themselves for the better. I call it nuance. I call it look at these ocs boy
#I say this specifically because I have plots that I cannot share right now because the haters will sabotage /J#no but forreal listen to me#imagine you’re a piece of shit. and it’s largely because your parents installed their pompous and bigoted views onto you#and from day one you seemed to be the favorite child. your parents adored you. your parents insisted you’d go far.#they acted as if you acted just like them then you’d succeed. and you were succeeding. no one worth your time treated you badly#even though you treat most people badly. INCLUDING your own siblings. if anything you’re encouraged to treat your siblings like ass#so they strive for greatness. but you refuse to see them as anything but great. because THEYRE not YOU. they’re nothing like you#you’re special. you’re perfect. you deserve so much in life and you will go so far in life because of your parents#but then you follow your heart. you were given freedom in life so why not decide to try and date people not on your level#but your parents HATE this!! and when you get your heart broken they refuse to comfort you#they demean you. insult your intelligence. ask where they went wrong raising you. treat you like they treat your siblings.#You did nothing wrong objectively. you just did what you wanted which you had always done! but now it’s wrong!#and you realize... your siblings and other family members also weren’t doing anything wrong. we’re they?#because if this is enough to make your parents treat you like dirt underneath your feet then what did your siblings truly do wrong#are they truly different from you? we’re they truly worthless and deserved to be mistreated?#were you wrong this whole time?#Yes. You were. You fucking sucked!!!! you were horrible for no reason!!!!!!!#So how do you go about trying to make amends? to righting your wrongs?#when you only realized your mistakes through selfishness? because you only realized this when YOU finally got treated like shit?#oh yknow. fuck around and find out I guess

There are so few phrases that genuinely make me angry.
Anyway, Tech Debt is a piss poor excuse. That shit had better be incomprehensible, it better be in fucking Fortran.
#rem rambles#people defending discords shit with 'its tech debt' ok then fix it??? fucking fix it.#you shouldnt be sitting on your ass looking at shitty code like 'hmmm i think i will just build on top of this :) '#we keke about the load bearing coconuts and shit. but like you CAN take the time to remove the jpeg. you know this right????#there are days where i lament over dropping out and not going into dev.ops but then i look at devs defending this shit so nebulously.#'yeah something wrong and unoptomized but like ...were not going to fix it.... that's hard...'#this is also why they hated me at my old job. like girl im glad you temp. fixed the issue but HWHAT caused it??? fucking FIX IT FORREAL#youre overworked and tired. damn imagine how i feel dealing with your shit constantly breaking and you schlapping duct tape as if that's#doing either of us any good. ill see u on the webex next fucking week i guess....#now i get to wait for some jackoff to come explain to me that fortran isnt optimized for soft.engineering as if that's not the damn joke.

astro obs.
🤸🏽♀️ Libras are always expected to give others something. Others always seem to look to them to give them their time, energy, love, affection, hell even their life. Of course they have issues with people pleasing because people naturally want to take take take from them. When they try to establish boundaries, all hell breaks loose leading them to never try to establish them again.
🤸🏽♀️ Speaking of Libra, I'm seeing a lot of posts about how *gay* we are lol Which made me wonder and think back on all the times I've had other women who I thought I was in true platonic friendships with fall head over heels in love with me and admit their true feelings to me. First time it happened I was literally in 4th grade.... How do we hetero Libras turn the gayness off or are y'all going off of what is stereotypically gay?
🤸🏽♀️ Libra rising are indecisive because when they make a hasty decision or impulsive decision, 9 times out of 10 it blows up in their face. Let them take their time dammit!
🤸🏽♀️ + libra rising kids not only experience bullying/jealousy/evil eye from their peers, they'll even experience it from full grown adults.
🤸🏽♀️ I saw someone mention that not liking 6th house synastry is because you enjoy toxicity in relationships...and I disagree. I think 6th house synastry depends on the type of relationship and the sign that it is in. For me, the 6th house works more for friendships and professional relationships rather than romantic relationships. As a straight woman, the sign my 6h is in is not ideal for a relationship for me due to other placements in my chart.
🤸🏽♀️ Furthermore, what synastry works for you best or what synastry you find to be most romantic is based on you and your chart. Don't let any of these "astrology girlies" pump your head up with bs just because it works for them.
🤸🏽♀️ Fellow scorpio placements (esp you scorpio suns) I'm gonna hold your hand when I say this, someone making you aware when you're exhibiting toxic/bad behavior does not equate to them being unloyal or betraying you. You need people around you that'll hold you accountable for the fucked up shit you do sometimes. No, it doesn't make them a snake or mean that they don't love you but my god, get a grip girl and be so motherfuckingly forreal.
🤸🏽♀️ Aquarius men aren't the challenge yall think they are... they're just detached. If that is not your style of love, move along.
🤸🏽♀️ Lilith energy is for women/feminines. If you are looking at Lilith through a synastry chart, the one who holds that power when it comes to how Lilith is placed is the feminine in the equation (if there is one). Men/masculines are subdued by Lilith. Not the other way around. For example, if a man's Lilith conjuncts a woman's Venus, he won't be able to use that power over her because he will not connect to it and will not know how to use it.
🤸🏽♀️ It is SO FUNNY when I read other observations on Libra placements. Its either we are mean girls/bullies or we are fake/people pleasers lmfao As someone with a lot of prominent Libra placements and influence, I have always had to deal with the fake allegations or the bitchy/intimidating mean girl allegations. Its like if we're not kissing ass we are the meanest bitches but if we are trying to make an effort to please everyone, we are people pleasing fake ass bitches 😆 I need y'all to pick a side and stay there when addressing Libras.
🤸🏽♀️ To say a venusian ruled person (Libra/Taurus suns, risings, venus) is a copy cat is laughable because they are the ones getting their swag stolen or having people wanting to be their friends to siphon their aura/vibe. Ex: Cleopatra a Taurus sun (Venus) had her "friend" copy her entire style/aesthetic.
🤸🏽♀️ I applaud the female/feminine Libras who have given up on pleasing others and have taken on the bitch allegations with pride because fuck these people. Y'all are weirdos who expect pretty women to fit into whatever box you feel like they should to appease your own self esteem. Seek help.
🤸🏽♀️ Degrees absolutely have effects on the natal chart and don't let anyone tell you otherwise! You might resonate more with whatever sign rules over the degree of your sign or rising rather than the actual sign that sit in those placements.
🤸🏽♀️ I saw someone say that a unevolved Sagittarius man is scared of sex........... while that could be true they are more often than not sexual deviants when unevolved.
🤸🏽♀️ Speaking of sagittarius, Jupiter ruled people quite literally NEED Jupiter to help them out and provide them with more luck than the rest of us because these people are the ultimate self sabotagers. They love trouble, they enjoy creating chaos often then not. And Jupiter is always there to put out the fires they start.
🤸🏽♀️ You can't really tell anyone what synastry is best for romantic relationships vs which ones you deem worse because at the end of the day it is all about preferences. If you like a familial feel to your relationships, you'll probably like 4th house synastry. However, if you're like me and come from a veryyyy dysfunctional family, 4h synastry will repulse you. So figure out your own vibe and what you like in a relationship and go from there.
🤸🏽♀️ Women with prominent sagittarius placements often are seen by outsiders as the "cool" or "fun" moms when really they can be verrrrrry neglectful towards their children. Ask me how I know lol
🤸🏽♀️ Saw someone say that Scorpio sun and moon placements can be backhandedly bully people and this is when I have to bring up the issues of generalization when y'all are making these "observation" posts. Any placement has the potential to be a bully. Literally any of them. However, why Scorpio sun and/or moon might stand out is because they can be LETHAL with their words (ex. Tia Kemp - Scorpio sun). Like they really know how to cut somebody up with their words and they are QUICK with it. Kind of like a scorpion with their tail. So be mindful and don't take it there with them if you can't keep up because you'll need therapy after they get done with you.
🤸🏽♀️ Scorpio moon women are either resenting other women or being resented by other women. It can go either way.
🤸🏽♀️ Gemini women are the ladies that look a mess 99% of the time and I like that about them.
