i love how i fought one (1) dragon in inquisition and then decided Yeah, I Can Fight The Guardian Of Mythal AND An Archdemon
#the risk i took was calculated but man am i bad at math#it's actually not as difficult to fight these two as it was to fight my first dragon because i'm using the tactical camera#USE THE TACTICAL CAMERA TO FIGHT DRAGONS GUYS#I PROMISE IT IS SO SO WORTH IT#IT IS MUCH EASIER TO COORDINATE YOUR ATTACKS AND DEFENSES#AND BEING ABLE TO PAUSE TIME MEANS YOU CAN STRATEGIZE#anyways. rant over#dragon age: inquisition

I'm a big supporter of "the gods love you, regardless of how much you're able to do to worship them", but at the same time, it's difficult to forge a relationship with any deity (or even other people) if you don't allow yourself to be known by them. If you don't have moments of vulnerability, moments of silliness, moments of small joy even, then it's difficult to forge relationships or take them to a deeper level. Loving gods (or even other people) can be a scary thing for some people (hell, it was for me), but if you don't allow your heart to be exposed, even just a little, then you're not going to get back as much as you're hoping to.
Anything that's worth anything in life is going to require some level of risk, as terrifying as that feels sometimes, and in my opinion, having a deeper connection with a deity is one of those things that's worth the risk.
My point isn't that we aren't loved by the gods if we don't do a ritual everyday or pray every hour; my point here is that we cannot deepen our bonds if we aren't willing to dip more than just our toes into our deity relationships. Love your gods, and know that you are loved, but they can't really help you if you won't let them in, you know?
#helpol#hellenic polytheism#hellenic pagan#deity worship#idk who needed to hear this tonight but I had an insanley strong urge to write and post this for literally no reason#i hope this helps someone#i know I've personally run into this issue so know that if you struggle with it you're not alone#but it's worth the risk#i promise you that it is#paganblr

a well deserved rest
my secret santa gift for @onlyyouexisthere ✨ i hope you enjoy this drawing of winters having a little break, which we could all use
#my art#hbowarsanta24#band of brothers#hbo war#richard winters#dick winters#u mentioned liking the little scenes of the guys relaxing or laughing#so choosing a moment from the end of the war felt appropriate#i was going for something peaceful…… so here is winters having a little moment of quiet to himself#i was inspired by an old recolored pic of the guys from easy in berchtesgaden#and i realize now this makes it look like winters draw all that wine but i promise he’s just having coffee#let’s say nix or some other guys were just with him lol#also i listened to the Sing Movie (animated animal movie) version of golden slumbers/carry that weight#for the last like 3 hours of working on this thing. that isn’t relevant to anything but feels worth mentioning#for vibes maybe#but anywayyyyyyy HAPPY HOLIDAYS!!!!#i hope it is restful and brings some peace!!!!

#poorly drawn mdzs#mdzs#wen ning#wei wuxian#wen qing#jiang cheng#Truly Massive disclaimer here: I am a Jiang Cheng enjoyer. I like his character. I enjoy that he is very flawed and volatile.#This episode of the audio drama has a lot of great breakdown scenes featuring JC - and they all deserve a feature.#But underlying this comic is a small meta comment of 'ah man I have too many comics of JC just wailing sadly'#My goal is to draw 6-8 comics per episode - I sometimes have to truncate and cut good scenes out.#Especially when a large majority is just different flavours of trauma and toxic relationships to your self-worth.#I would also like to make a note here that just because you lose the ability to do something that is very tied to your core identity-#-does not mean your life is over. It will feel like the end of the world. It will send you into a spiral of grief. It will hurt so badly.#Sometimes we do not realize how tied up our identities can be in certain things until we are cut loose.#You don't lose yourself. I promise the pain will fade in time. I promise you will find other things to tether you. I promise you will be ok#Life moves forwards. Time moves forwards. You move forwards.#Ego death just means an opportunity for ego rebirth. You are never committed to being the same person forever.#To wrap this around to JC: Yeah I love the twist with the core transfer but man I would have loved to see JC accept the loss.#Obviously it happens for a reason (story) but I can have my AUs. I can have these 'what-ifs'.#described in alt text#I'm trying it out! *please* give me feedback - I want to eventually Add image ID to all of these comics one day

A quick PSA:
YOU ARE NOT A WANNAREXIC IF YOU EAT OVER YOUR CALORIE LIMIT. A wannarexic is someone who pretends to be anorexic for attention and then go back to eating normally no problem. A wannarexic is someone who only doesn't eat around others for attention and doesn't care about calories or fat. A wannarexic is someone who only pretends to be anorexic to get sympathy.
If you aren't any of those things then you aren't a wannarexic. Anorexia is a mental illness, and it's okay if you binge because that's how your body works. Please, babies, you aren't wannarexic because chances are everyone reading this post is actually anorexic. Send love to others who think they are wannarexic for binging.
My favorite quote is "If you're doing it in private with no one watching then you aren't faking." All of us count calories when no one is watching, you aren't faking. I love you, and if I can love you then you can love yourself.
<3

seriously though, Alan Becker's Animator vs. Animation series is fucking legendary and for good reason. don't let the fact that all the characters are stick figures delude you into thinking it's a joke. AvA and its spinoff series, AvM (Animation vs. Minecraft) are both well written, complex stories with well-rounded characters and complex arcs that take themselves completely seriously and are also masterclasses in 2d and later 3d animation.
both series include original soundtracks mainly composed by Scott Buckley and they now have a full team of professional animators working on them, even though the project was started by just one guy (Alan). despite having zero lines of dialogue, they clearly and masterfully characterize every single character that's involved by depicting their body language and actions alone. there is love and dedication poured into all of these projects and it shines through in every second of playtime.
also, these feature some of the most jaw dropping choreography and visual effects in fight scenes that ive ever seen in 2d animation ever. the one in AvA s2 alone is higher quality than most fight scenes in almost all modern professionally made movies, in my opinion. alan and his team consistently push the boundaries of what can be done with animation both visually and conceptually and they never fucking miss. like ever. this shit goes so hard
in conclusion: just trust me on this one
#apollo's tag#most of you who are following us probably respect our taste in media. so do me a favor and check this out when u have the time#i cannot recommend this series enough. i promise it's worth it#all im saying is that theres a REASON ao3's fandom tag classifies these as short films!#the fucking stick figures

IAN GALLAGHER + his journey with bipolar disorder
╰┈➤ “At times, being bipolar can be an all-consuming challenge, requiring a lot of stamina and even more courage, so if you’re living with this illness and functioning at all, it’s something to be proud of, not ashamed of." - Carrie Fisher
#happy world bipolar day to all my bp babies#(more thoughts at the end of the tags)#shameless#shamelessnet#shamelessedit#ian gallagher#cameron monaghan#*macygifs#bipolar disorder#hello pals how are we doin#i made this gif set in july of 2023 and never posted it because 1) i was terrified to share it and potentially see Bad Takes in the tags#and 2) because my hyperfixation was waning. and while both of those things are still mostly true (the fixation comes and goes)#i feel like it's really important to share as ian's bipolar storyline was not only so vital to his character it was a bit of representation#that isn't often given to the disorder and those (like myself) who live with it every single day#world bipolar day is a day where we can both celebrate ourselves and our resilience and also raise awareness of the reality of the disorder#which is both terrifying and beautiful at its core. this disease is not a death sentence or a sentence to an unfulfilled and miserable life#while there are challenges galore when it comes to balancing life with this disorder it IS possible to live a full and productive life#and i think it's really important to have representation of that in media - and while shameless dropped the ball on a LOT of storylines#over the years THIS is the one they really fucking nailed and i am incredibly grateful#i first started watching shameless while in the midst of a major depressive episode and i was later (finally) diagnosed during an extended#hypo/manic episode - this show and ian's storyline got me through so much and made me feel so seen and validated in my struggles#world bipolar day is also vincent van gogh's birthday (happy birthday buddy) who was posthumously diagnosed with bipolar disorder#and who experienced both depressive and hypo/manic episodes during his lifetime (and was regularly institutionalized)#it takes a lot of help and support to keep us going. it takes the support of our family and friends and *most* of all#it takes patience and kindness and understanding - which is so so so easy to give if you are willing to love and listen#so please. be willing. listen to our stories. be patient with us. show us love without conditions. support us in any way you can.#we are worth it#i promise#anyway. that's really all i wanted to say. happy world bipolar day to those who celebrate (me) and may all of us living with this disorder#go on to live happy fulfilling beautiful magical lives

Christmas Data Strike 2024
Instagram is literally suppressing every video I made on reels about this so I’m turning to tumblr. On the 24th and 25th, we are striking on Meta services (Instagram, Facebook) as well as X/Twitter and Tiktok. Streaming services, google, and any amazon services should be boycotted as well if possible.
DO ✅
Engage with activities that are offline
Spend as little time online as possible
Tell your friends and family that you’re going dark and then put your phone in airplane mode!!
DO NOT ❌
Use any of these socials period. Do not give them your screen time
Use google to search for anything - use an alternative search engine
Buy anything online
Stream television or music - download your shows and watch offline if necessary
Why?
These corporations, especially during christmas, use our data to train their models for next year. They want to know what gifts we got and what we’re doing with them. By depriving these companies of our data, we are saying that we want to maintain the right to our data and privacy! Here’s a tiktok video that explains in more detail.
PLEASE reblog for more reach!!! Tumblr is the only platform I can think of that won’t suppress this strike.
#this isn’t just some fringe movement i made up either#millions of people are already doing this on tiktok#so please take this as a sign to participate#it may be difficult but i promise it’s worth it#data strike 2024#data strike#anti meta#anti capitalism#anti corporations#us politics#politics#donald trump#luigi mangione#data privacy#strike#privacy rights#anti social media#netflix#instagram#spotify#facebook#meta#tiktok#google#uhc

"I'm in this orange-themed room. It's supposed to represent an underground tunnel. I play a recluse in this story. Someone building their own world, digging tunnels, and staying hidden inside them. Going outside can feel a bit scary. Being out in society can give you anxiety and fear, but in your own space you can feel secure and at ease. I've reflected on those feeling, which inspired this song. Nevertheless, society isn't as scary as it seems. There are a lot of amazing things out there and lots of ways to help tackle challenges. That's the message behind this video. Through this music video, i hope to inspire you to step out bravely [into the world]. Don't forget, mansae ('yay')!" - Onew [from '만세' MV behind]
#shinee#onew#lee jinki#dailyshinee#kpopccc#smsource#speakofgifs#ksoloists#malegroupsnet#i LOVE the idea behind this song and mv <33 it's a message rly worth sharing (especially something to reflect on in my own life i tend to b#a recluse). I'm super glad he's come to love the world and not fear it and he's so clearly happy with his life. legit cannot put into words#how over the moon i am about that <3#also a little secret: i had a version of this posted with him popping out of the chimney - that was the original concept lol going from#underground to pop out the chimney but... i looked back at it a lil while later :')) it was so phallic im so sorry to anyone who saw that i#promise i didn't notice at first i swear it omg. so here's the rated Everyone version that isn't stupid to look at (rip) :)#lastly shout out to the magic of editing: look at him giving himself a 'lil cheer for a moonwalk well done it's killing me this is so funny

Fishing Interlude
[First] Prev <–-> Next
#poorly drawn mdzs#mdzs#wei wuxian#lan sizhui#lan jingyi#ONE HUNDERED (+6 bonus) COMICS BABY!!!! WE MADE IT!#There's still at least 200 more to go at the rate I'm going but still! Triple digits for a comic project feels worth celebrating.#I'm no stranger to setting myself on projects but this is certainly the most adventurous and long-term one I've undertaken.#The aim was to be done by the end of September (whoops (I also took a few breaks to post other stuff)) But I'm still having fun!#Thank you all so much for joining me on this journey! I have a celebration announcement tomorrow!#Sorry this one doesn't really feel like a 'comic 100'. It's sandwiched between two comics that were supposed to be 'comic 100'...#I love how excited Jingyi is to be in the garden. And I will never miss an opportunity to have them fish.#Slowly...I am setting up my punchline with all this. I promise it's leading somewhere.#Lan Sizhui didn't fit into the frame for panel 3 so I like to think he dove in after a fish#Afterall that's were lan zhan is in this comic. Under the water. Hunting. LSZ is just following what his mentor taught him.#Sorry I broke Jingyi's characterization for this punchline. He's one of the biggest wangxian shippers in canon. But fishing comes first.
