Why the 🇺🇸 Entertainment products making every hit characters into some sort of family stuff ??? It’s 21th century now, hello??? And this is new queer icon in comics???

absolutely wheezing at the thought that after jacemond get married daemon becomes not only aemond's uncle and brother in-law but also his father in-law. GOD the comedic potential. daemon looking haggard at the dinner table during their shared suppers realizing exactly how viserys felt bc jacemond is literally his and rhaenyra's mini-me's

okay cult leader geto has rotted my brain but u know how he fully avoids interacting with non-sorcerers oh my god i can imagine nanamimi wanting to go somewhere but he doesn't.. but ur wanting to go as well and suddenly he's up and running to join and even prolonging the outing😭

and yes! i can imagine he'd be lonely so he's always clinging to you in ways that are so? subtle? so whenever it slows down ur just confused and a little upset because where did he go🙁 but that makes him giddier because he realises his effect on you AH

GAIA……… 🥺🥺🥺 U GET IT !! aaaaa this is so cute wait pshdjdgd I CAN SEE IT SO CLEARLY…. he’s sooooo eager to be around you and spend quality time with you 😔😔 i can see nanamimi being wingmen too LMAO they support their papa!!! he’s just trying not to appear too needy (but he still absolutely does appear too needy)……. cutiepie

he really is just trying his best to Woo you it’s a whole operation and i feel like his entire cult family would be in on it PHDJDHDJ they’re so silly i love them <333 i can imagine geto throwing a tantrum when things aren’t going well and everyone else is like … master geto ….. you are 28 years old ……..

AND WAHHH gaia he would be so smug….. if one day he didn’t accompany you somewhere and you were just like. where’s geto……. 🤨 he would literally giggle and kick his feet and blush he’s the CUTEST he really is like a schoolgirl pining over her first crush . writes about it in his journal and everything. i Need him

gimme your top 5 hot takes about rwby

I'm afraid I don’t have an accurate gauge of what qualifies as a “hot take” (or even what it actually is. Is it merely a controversial opinion?) so if any of these are ice cold I apologize

Adam and the Rose family should be connected in some way. Visual cues are important and there's so much spicy potential, especially if the dynamic originated with Summer

For Roman, the best and longest standing villain of the show, to be one of the few on-screen Grimm deaths is borderline parody. Personally, I think Ruby should’ve had a more active role in his death, even if by accident or setting up circumstances like she did Neo

Ozma’s situation is far more horrifying and sympathetic than Salem’s. The gods proved that they could bring Ozma back to life in his own body, but instead he’s forced to be a body snatcher? That’s fucked up in so many ways. She may be able to die again and again, but I think it’s way worse to die knowing you’re dooming several people at once

May Marigold isn’t that great of trans rep. She’s so unmemorable and inconsequential to the plot that the only reason I remember her at all is because she’s The Trans One. Like, glad they made her trans, and the reveal was respectful and clear and not even plot-relevant!, but maybe make her a good character first?

If we’re going by the show’s queer golden rule of blushing = romantic feelings, then Ruby had a crush on Emerald in V3 and it should have been explored way more for angst purposes

the biggest critique i've seen of the wednesday series is that wednesday doesn't act exactly like she does at age 8 in the original series and instead acts like a teenager? "oh she doesn't hug her mom as much :(" she is 16

my favourite story troupe is when a group of friends of an even number(eg 4, 6, 8) end up pairing into couples around the same time(same week or month) so they decide to share their anniversaries as a group together for a whole week/month or something.

Bonus points if they do this well into their old age. Any kids are left with family members or hired babysitters.

"Now behave for your grandma, ill be back in a month. Me and your dad are spending our anniversary with the lads."

allow me to make an argument:

if Ace dies, we can get Mihawk bonding, but!! we lose our sun 😭; if Ace lives, we can still have Mihawk bonding at a later date -🍂

heheheh yess true, true!! Ace never got the chance to meet his biological father, but after losing Whitebeard, he might be more keen on persuading Yara to reconcile with hers while she still can! Though I imagine Mihawk "bonding" would look a little like:

*Mihawk and Yara, sitting at opposite ends of a comically long dining room table, sipping wine*

*2 hours of complete silence later*

Yara, sarcastically, as she gets up to leave: Great conversation, Dad.

(they're so awkward send help)

your art makes me think of an old cartoon about Funny Sibling Shenanigans[tm] that sometimes punches you in the gut with heartbreaking moments

grAHGARGFLKLK THIS IS PROBABLY GONNA BE ONE OF THOSE THINGS SOMEONE TELLS ME AND I THINK ABOUT IT FOREVER AFTERWARDS. IN A GOOD WAY I MEAN. The first time I posted my cotl art, it was on reddit and someone said they wanted me to make a whole cartoon using the designs in the ref sheets I made, I was thinking about it while making that hamburger time video earlier actually.

I don't animate much just because I don't have the software for it (everything I've animated so far has been in paint tool sai + capcut OR gifmaker.me) but in the alternate universe where I picked up animation instead of comics, I would 10000% be working on a pilot for a bishop sitcom/slice of life thing that devolves into unending anguish over the course of a season. So I appreciate you sending this ask cause even if it'll never be a thing I can feasibly make, I'm really happy hearing someone thinks my art would make for a Family Hijinx/Tragedy cartoon

Have this really old sketch from when that "every villainous group looks like this" thing was going around LMAO I feel like it's cartoonish in nature to be relevant here

I just found your blog today can you please explain or point out a post that explains the MASH timeloop thing? I love the show but I've never heard anyone talk abt it that way before

oh yay hurray ive been waiting for an excuse to talk about this lmao sorry this is long

ok so basically maeve (my gf) and i started watching mash for the first time about a month ago and we started joking about it being like the characters were stuck in a time loop mostly because the same basic episode format is repeated over and over, because it's a sitcom from the 70s and the episodes arent meant to be watched en masse where you can start noticing all the little repetitions and plot holes and inconsistencies that naturally occur in longform tv

but then i started to pay attention to the dates being mentioned in the show - famously the korean war never technically ended, but american troops were involved in active on the ground fighting between 1950 and 1953, so the entire 11 seasons of mash have to be squeezed into that three year period. with 251 episodes occurring within 1,129 days, that gives every episode about 4.5 days of real time. so it works right? no time loop right? well wait a sec

for the first 5 seasons or so of mash they give very consistent dates about when things are happening. for example, bj arrives in korea in september of 1952, at the start of season 4. colonel potter arrives about a week after him, and talks about how he has 18 months left before his retirement. that gives us about 7 months for the shows final 7 seasons to take place in, meaning that by the episode 'point of view' in season 7 we should be around december of 1952. in that episode the pov character starts writing a letter home and in the corner he writes the date:

september of 1951. ok, could be that this episode isn't meant to take place in the regular timeline of the season - maybe for some reason its just like, a random flashback episode. but bj, charles, and potter are all present, even though none of them got to korea until 1952. now i KNOW that this is not like, the True Hidden Secret Lore of MASH, this is the writers realizing they were running out of road and turning back the clock a bit to accommodate for how long the show was running on. but play in my time loop space with me please

more talking points:

consistent jokes about time zones and how difficult it is to call the states because "our today is their yesterday but if you call them now it might not reach them until our tomorrow and by that point our yesterday will be their today"

hawkeye's increasing mania over the seasons and his conviction that the war will never end, comparing the camp to dante's inferno multiple times. maeve once pointed out that the closer hawkeye comes to realizing that he's trapped in a time loop the closer he gets to being institutionalized - and what does the series finale cold open onto ? hawkeye in a mental institution. the only way out is to lose yourself etc. sidenote frank also escaped the time loop by going insane and getting institutionalized

in a war for all seasons bj potter and charles are all present at the 1951 new years party as well as the 1952 new years party

there are three christmas episodes, two of which bj is present for even though he should only have spent one christmas in korea

details of people's families and lives shift around - sometimes potter's got multiple grandchildren, sometimes he only has one, sometimes its a girl, sometimes its a boy, sometimes she's 5, sometimes he's 2

we're not the first people to talk about this either, here's a good video compilation posted a couple yrs ago of time loop moments

overall ive been using the time loop thesis to add another layer to my mash viewing experience. it increases the already present sense of constant dread, anger, frustration, and disgust with their situation that the characters feel, plus it feels like a very poignant take on the united states' constant warmongering and violent existence. it really never ends, it just goes on an on. the future's been canceled by the war department- we're just gonna replay the past.

my webcomic's volume 1 kickstarter ENDS in THREE DAYS!!!!!!!! so I am telling you guys about my comic as frankly as I can HAHAHA!!

Cargo is about smugglers. They live in a version of Florida where, post zombie-apocalypse, the government went INSANE and made everything illegal... like they made "wearing excessive amounts of the color red" a fineable offense I'm not kidding around, EVERYTHING is illegal. More things:

Enter SJ Khan, a woman with a brain that can only invent rube goldberg machine style solutions to her problems. She enlists an old friend to help her start a smuggling company and the two of them round up a crew that's just seeping with soap-opera levels of drama.

This comic is based on a comic I drew a little over 1 decade ago. It's about living with strangers, about what you choose to look at or are allowed to look at, and most importantly it's about watching weird guys doing unpredictable things. It is funny. I am learning how to draw Florida for it, here, look:

I call it an "evil sitcom". Someone once described it as using "hey i'm not 100% sure you can have a main character do that" comedy... and that feels right to me too.

It's an ensemble cast, but the story centers around a team of smugglers. I love this cast so much, they're all so strange and it's so fun to write all their various quirks crashing into each other. Here's a (only slightly outdated) height chart of the entire extended cast.

You know the weird relationships you get with coworkers, where you're forced to be near them and cooperate with them on some level for most of your waking hours regardless of how you feel about them? That's what we're dealing with here. I had a review describe it as "not found family, but found acquaintances" which. Yeah. Exactly. 😂😂

Some characters and relationships you can expect to see in Cargo:

An absolute mess of a man who micromanages his entire crew but especially the FIFTEEN YEAR OLD (!!!!!!) INDENTURED SERVANT (!!!!!!????????!!!!!!!!!!) (HELP HELP HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!) (AHHHHHHHH WHY DID I LEAD WITH THIS ONE!!!!!!!)

This old guy who works for them has MASSIVE MASSIVE beef with the boss lady because 10 years ago she framed him for a crime he didn't commit which caused him to be in prison for years and years. But for some reason they still care about each other.

You know that tweet that's like "a job will have you..." wait I can just find the tweet and show you guys. This one

Well anyways. Cargo has that one. It's between a guy who is a medical celebrity because he got the zombie parasite and then got cured and a very nice very violent old lady. They are the ship goofballs they are also probably the two most actively dangerous people here LMAO

This kid who loves his cat and is doing his best to avoid give a single drop of his precious energy to engaging with the rest of these clowns.

One of the characters did something that made my readers say this.

I could go on but this post is so long already. So instead, links.

You can read it online on Comic Fury or Tapas!

And here's my Kickstarter link again!

Here's art I drew of the crew ~8 years ago. A sincere thank you for looking at this post, godspeed and goodnight!
