jesus christ i hate my body. it's like owning a shitty used car all over again except that I CAN'T SELL IT AND BUY A NEW ONE. unless you would classify orthopedic surgery as doing that and even then that's far in the future and does me no good whatsoever right now

#she bork #tbd #i try to love my body. i really do. i don't like the way it looks but i could get past that and appreciate its function IF IT WERE #FUNCTIONAL. which it is not.#no idea whether my body is punishing me for throwing the truck yesterday or buckling under the hormonal strain of my upcoming cycle or just #deciding to be a dick but the bottom line is that i am exhausted and my body hurts so bad. my wrist my thumb my legs my neck everything. i'm #even having a recurrence of the nerve problems i had in my foot neck in like. TWENTY-TWENTY-ONE. why why why why why. why does my body exist #ONLY to spite me. i swear to god if i get home and i can't put in my fucking words bc of how my body feels i'm gonna freak. i am SO CLOSE TO #THE END DO NAWT NERF ME AT THE FINISH LINE #*my foot BACK in like 2021 lol. even my typos mock me #jesus i just can't emphasize enough how fucking bad my body hurts. my wrist and thumb feel like they have fucking ground glass in them (idk #about my wrist but ik my thumb has a bone spur and that's probably close enough lol). my foot feels like someone is stabbing it w a dull #knife right in that tender spot by the inner ankle bone and making it ache. i feel fucking exhausted and a little sick? idk how even just #like Not Good or like just Off. and i'm STILL at work and then tomorrow i STILL have to run the truck again and then i'm finally off #thursday. jesus fucking christ if i have to spend all weekend sleeping to get over this bullshit i am gonna be SO mad

What's your take on Odysseus's trauma and recovery back in Ithaca?

*looks at all the comics I made*

Lol but really, I realistically expect it to be severely rocky. He’ll have good days, mostly bad days, but what keeps him grounded is of course his family, you know?

But imagine losing your entire fleet under your command...

...only to come back to an entire population of thousands of people, expecting that you will lead them.

What if he fails again?

#it's scary to go back believing that the loss was equivalent (even worse) than your win #Odysseus probably couldn't even function well as a king early in his return (and this time the other politicians weren't as forgiving)#thankfully his son is there #which is another comic for another day :P #Odysseus #Penelope #Telemachus #Epic the Ithaca saga #EPIC the musical #EPIC #The Odyssey #InSomniphic's Art #InSomniphic's Asks

the scene people keep screaming about from chapter 5 of theseus' guide

#gravity falls #gf theseus' guide #billford #stanford pines #bill cipher #stanley pines #mabel pines #dipper pines #m.png #THIS WASNT SUPPOSED TO TAKE ALL WEEK AAGH #cool thing i did where i took these characters who i cant draw from any angle but the front and then have them turning around CONSTANTLY #not just views from different angles either! active turning! im a genius!#i feel like you can tell which shots were drawn on different days sadkfhlgljaskg this killed me. i was gonna clean up the bgs but fuck that #theyre functional on a basic level and that is all we need #anyways can you believe the notorious line is only in the fic because an eagle eyed editor (not myself) caught it just before it was delete #and started screaming until it got put back #also the way stump came over while i was making this and was like 'oh right. i ship them' at the way i made bill flirt lmao #it hits different in the visual!#alright now i gotta fucking haul ass on the chapter 8 one

#luo bingge #luo binghe #svsss #scum villian self saving system #ren zha fanpai zijiu xitong #pidw #proud immortal demon way #myart #well that was a big piece but I'm super proud of it #sadly you know how tumblr is don't hesitate to click for a better quality #I've drawn every single thing in this yes even the dragon in the background #I think I should draw backgrounds more often whenever I can #btw if you want some infos on the details here:#each guanyin represents one of lbg's wife as they are a replacement for what the dragon is holding in its pearl #can you guess which one is which ? :D #it's kind of like “after everything you've done do you realize what you truly wanted now? ah it's out of your grasp now isn't it?”#xin mo has a red eye but that's just for the aesthetic it's not functional #anyway I loved working on this maybe I should have waited a day before posting it but I'm too excited about it to

everybody say THANK YOU MUSEUMS WHO PUT THEIR COLLECTIONS ONLINE so that we can DRAW THE THINGS WITHOUT BEING IN LONDON

#news from the cupola #particular thank you to longtime bestie greenwich maritime museum for all the drawing assistance it has provided over the years #and whatever the opposite of a shoutout is to the royal air force museum collections. why is the search function Like That.#I understand Why the filter sort is built the way it is from like. an internal ease perspective.#but it does make it Impossible to find specific Types of things which is What A Filter Sort on a Museum Website is For.#...oh hey I should see if the royal scots museum has online collections. just in case. hee hee <- scheming

I don't care about data scraping from ao3 (or tbh from anywhere) because it's fair use to take preexisting works and transform them (including by using them to train an LLM), which is the entire legal basis of how the OTW functions.

#really tired of seeing posts warning people to archive lock their works to protect against scraping #information wants to be free and that includes your second person reader insert #you are of course welcome to archive lock the works #that's a function of ao3 for a reason #but the anti-scraping attitude is exhausting because it tells me #that the broad understanding of 'fair use' is dismal #which is depressing coming from the userbase of a site that is totally reliant on fair use

90% sure this is just the nostalgia speaking but god if you were a kid in the early 2000s it was like the crème de la crème of live action fantasy kid movies. like big budget, high production value, (mostly) well acted kid movies and I really don't feel like those get made much anymore

#then again I don't really watch (new) kid movies lmao but even like a general google search of kid movies in the last ~5 years #99% of them are animated #(which to be clear im not disparaging the medium)#the only live actions marketed to kids/family that I can think of today are just like... the Disney live action adaptations #which also sort of function differently to me

Had a bit of a "community heartbreak" last week, yet another one in a life-long series (though it'd been a while), so I malfunctioned for some days, took exactly one painkiller, and then finally tried to make sense of stuff that hurt me over the years and that I kept being clueless to for a ridiculous amount of time, so that maybe, hopefully, it could save some people in cases similar to mine some confusion and hurt

#no one can know i don't like sex #vent art #sex repulsed #romance repulsed #aroace #my art #nonburger #other reasons why i can't function in fandom spaces for shit include me being 30+ and me having been bullied as a kid #which confirms i'm not made to fit in groups©#maybe? idk #anyway

Transitional phase

#isat spoilers #act 6 secret encounter #inspired by loop and loop adjascent designs by sharkylass and wonder-of-the-stars yay yay yay MY BRAIN EXPANDS ily guys #i think at this point im sure i'll never settle on 1 post-story loop design so i think they probably phase in and out of a human form #which is still mostly their own body but they regain some functions like the ability to eat and also their face and clothes #now with inbetween stages i guess?! i just thought it looked cute honestly. im playing. with my touys.#it's probably not fully in their control how they look at any given time. but they definitely stay stuck in star form for a while.#and get better control of keeping the 'human mask' on longer the more they practice #u can sort of see their eye scar in the transitional phase but it bursts out into the bright star that covers the eye in human form #in stars and time spoilers #isat #in stars and time #isat loop #my art

"I'm... I'm here to tell you..." To tell him what? That it's fine? That I don't hate you? That everything is fine? That I don't blame you for having killed Jin ZiXuan? It was impossible. But she couldn't say anything that was the opposite either. And so, she didn't know what else she could say to Wei Wei WuXian, under such circumstances. It was just that she felt like she had to see this brother of hers once more. / "You ran so fast, I could hardly get a look at you."

The Untamed vs Leonard Cohen's Famous Blue Raincoat

#there is an EXCELLENT jiang cheng wei wuxian edit out there to this song and i think jiang yanli deserves a little leonard cohen too <3 #as a treat <3 #just that line that i guess that i miss you i guess i forgive you!#and yes i DID change the last line so it suits her final sacrifice better #that quote is from the novel which i am becoming frighteningly close to reading one day #anyway!#jiang yanli #the untamed #theuntamededit #that shot of her and wei wuxian staring at each other her in her mourning clothes is one of my favorite shots in the show it makes me WAIL #so apologies for using it in every edit ever #also if you're wondering why no gifs? my screenrecorder function is buggy so :/ screenshots only for me alas

Gore, Violence and Blood under the cut

What a mess

#fop nature au #fairly oddparents #fop a new wish #fairly oddparents a new wish #fop #dale dimmadome #Flowers OC #candy gore #gore #blood #body horror #this really is a mess on so many levels #I wanted to make this situation as difficult as possible for the fairy council to theoretically clear up #everything from the animal to the location to the injury is a nightmare to try and explain #And theres a reason I spent so much time showing the gore getting on his injury. Mans gonna have a rainbow bitemark on his leg forever now #Not exactly easy to explain away #Also I think I accidentally established that Magic was a little toxic so he might have minor blood poisoning lol #Im sure he'll be fine #This is how all gay people are made but the fairies make you forget it #Actually while scripting this I realized how much this looked like the set up for some kind were-deer or were-fairy(??) plotline #which was not the intention but would be a hilarious direction to take the plot in LMAO #Also Id like to mention that flowers is fine. Fairies are functionally immortal aside from magic backup #Itll be healed up like nothing happened it no time #that being said it is still kinda pissed about the skull smashing #Dales got multiple broken ribs plush his leg is in shambled. Absolutely demolished #He's gonna have to get metal implants #You might think 'oh he's gonna opt to get a prosthetic leg now too'#No. Because hes a cowardly little bitch #He doesnt want to get his leg removed if its not absolutely necessary and because he's a nasty little hypocrite #Anyway this will be the start of a very nasty spiral methinks

There's nothing worse than loving someone who's never going to stop disappointing you.

oh nothing, just book lawrence and bellini being work husbands who have each other's backs...

....and praying together...

...and supportively sassing each other...

...and being soft ...

...and passing notes during conclave like schoolchildren...

AND WHATEVER IMPROMPTU 'GOODNIGHT SWEET PRINCE' REPRESSED TENDER ROMANCE MOVIE YEARNING BULLSHIT THIS IS

i'm crying, they're married, they're dating, they're confirmed bachelors, they're courting, they're besties, they're flirting, they're in love, they're everything to me, amen

#conclave #thomas lawrence #aldo bellini #lawrellini #ripped through the book the other day and really enjoyed it!!#the movie makes good dramatic adjustments but the book is basically like 'movie + special bonus features!'#i did find the biggest shift was aldo actually!#lomeli-lawrence have a lot of overlap and very much the same essence #book!aldo and movie!aldo feel like different people though. not in a bad way it's just interesting which facets are explored more #book!aldo seems to be a lot more reserved and even-keeled. and any potential ambition he may have is not 'personal' to him #movie!aldo is a little more mercurial and stanley tucci plays him at a higher temperature #so while he comes off a little warmer and gregarious it can also swing into a more 'temperamental' side #the overall 'character's function in the narrative' feels the same though #and i love them BOTH #anyway i want what they have lmao
