ah, the most wonderful time of the year---when I sit down with a mug of tea and my vote by mail ballot, when I consult the meticulously researched Judicial Election guide published by Injustice Watch, as well as the Bring Chicago Home materials provided to me by a very cheerful door-to-door campaign worker, so I can vote in accordance with my conscience.
....and of course, I have to do this early, because I will be an election judge in a week and a half, and I can't let filling out my ballot interfere!
#going to be annoying about this for a bit longer.#I just think voting is incredibly neat. when you can see all the incredibly intricate pieces moving in the background?#also I just like bragging about how many great local resources chicago has.#city of the big shoulders

okay so as a gen 5 stan who does adore the story in bw and bw2, and now that gen 5 has experienced both a vicious hatedom that wouldnt hear a single positive thing about the games, and now a super protective fandom that insists they were perfect and had zero flaws... can we admit now that the bw1 story at least was. a little mid.
#just a little. just a little.#i am saying this as someone who adores it and loves the characters a lot#...... but good god team plasma kinda sucks ass as an evil organization#bw2 is sorta better about them with the split factions but in the first game theyre so obnoxious and come across as strawmen#the game talks about how the world is nuanced and not black and white and its not good to take extreme sides#but then. it sorta does that with the protagonists? by refusing to talk about abused pokemon that werent hurt by team plasma?#obviously they are wrong. the game hammers it in with a mallet. but is it really nuanced if our stance is ''ha ha thats silly''#and yeah groups like plasma exist irl but like. as someone who cares abt animal rights and stuff a lot. i feel like they fumbled it here#the answer shouldnt have been ''well ig some pokemon get hurt. we wont talk about them though. watch the grunt kick a munna''#it shouldve been about animal welfare. like maybe instead of becoming assistant professor; bianca couldve become a nurse joy#or she couldve joined some organization that rescues and rehabilitates pokemon from abusive trainers. maybe the reformed plasma from bw2#and before someone goes ''erm its a kids game they cant do that :/ thats too complicated'' first of all- the anime showed a malnourished te#tepig#kids can handle a bit of text next to a skittish lillipup thats like ''its scared of humans'' or something and its being cared for by someo#someone''#plus the side games were tackling much heavier shit at this point#also again they were apparently fine with a grunt kicking a munna and bragging about how he loves doing that so.#like even as a kid i felt like that scene was really over the top and stupid#team plasma feels less like an attempt to do commentary on harmful animal rights ideas that lead to ecofascism and dont care abt the animal#true needs#and more like gamefreak read a lot of obnoxious critical pokemon posts like ''lmao training is like dogfighting'' and ''this promotes anima#abuse!'' and just made a strawman out of those people. and like i agree thats all stupid but it sorta hurts the message of the game#that the world is very nuanced and taking extremes is bad and reductive.#and this isnt getting into poor story and gameplay integration and other stuff like underutilized characters (you know exactly who i mean)#idk. again i still adore the story and have a huge soft spot for it. but i think the only reason people say its perfect is out of defensive#defensiveness and not having engaged with a ton of video game stories. and pokemon stories not being fantastic in general#like i think pla is better put together story wise than this game and its got less going on than this#echoed voice

Groose is the best Zelda character, no one can change my mind.
#I still haven't played tears of the kingdom so no spoilers for that pls#unless groose is in it#then you must tell me#I know he's not in it though#because god can only descend from his heaven once#else the power of his divine spectacle would melt all whose greed deigned to gaze upon him twice#I can never choose between twilight princess /skyward sword/majora's mask for which zelda is my favorite#and it hurts my soul a bit to see just how many “OCARINA WAS YOUR FIRST ZELDA IF YOU'RE AN OG FAN” statements there are#when my ass was over here like “...the first zelda was my first zelda....hahaaha..haha..haohno”#this isn't me bragging about being a “REAL FAN” btw this is me measuring the gaze of mortality by zelda entries

~Ask List~
Let's Drop The Stigma And Talk About It
A little list of questions/asks that people may be wondering, but aren't sure if it's appropriate to ask. Or that creators worry would be 'bragging' or 'complaining' by talking about. Let's throw out those thoughts, and just talk about it~
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1) What's one piece of feedback you would give someone starting out? (writing, drawing, wav making, etc~)
2) What’s one piece of advice you see often that you don’t find works for you/helpful?
3) What’s one thing you wish you knew when you started making content?
4) What piece of work are you proudest of? Why are you proud of it?
5) What piece of work are you not proud of? Is there anything you could do to change your feelings on it?
6) What’s a part of sharing your work that you really enjoy?
7) What’s a struggle you face with sharing your work?
8) What feedback do you most enjoy receiving?
9) What feedback, if any, do you not enjoy receiving?
10) What feedback do you enjoy giving?
11) What feedback, if any, do you not enjoy giving?
12) Do you believe you deserve what you’ve gotten, or that it’s not been earned? Either way, why?
13) Which asks do you like getting the most?
14) Which asks do you wish you got more of?
15) Are there any asks you don’t like getting?
16) Do you find it easier, or harder, to get a lot of feedback on content?
17) What kind of requests, if any, do you enjoy getting?
18) What kind of requests, if any, do you wish you got more of?
19) What kind of requests, if any, do you not enjoy getting?
20) Free Square: Tell Us Anything~
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
#waterfall asklist#first time doing one of these so im a bit (a lot) nervous#but these are the types of questions that i would wish I could ask creators on here#but feel a bit nervous asking because of the whole#'don't brag' or 'don't complain' mindset that can come with sharing works#or having any type of audience (even if it's small)#soooo i decided to just make a list and put it out there incase anyone wants to be asked them!!!#cause i know (even as a small creator) for some of them i would like to talk about it!#feel free to reblog to any type of blog that makes content~#or even a blog that DOESN'T if you want to answer some of them!!#the list is for your use~ use hypothetically if you'd like too~

!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
#A great episode tbh especially given the low budget. I feel like they really did their very best#And even though what I'm going to say next is probably going to be all critic - because I nitpick things and that's what I always end up–#talking about - I still want to underline that it was a very solid and enjoyable episode!!!#Alright the ss/kk was so 💞💞💞 every scene I had to rewatch twice or thrice akhscbashfb they're so cute!!!#Except for the riding scene tho. That scene gives me massive second hand embarrassment every time I just wish it will end as fast as–#possible pffttt. Mmmmhhh... The drawings weren't even too bad all accounted. My main complain is about the quicksand scene...#I feel like that one should be a slow quiet emotional scene. I never licked the choice of using the song as background soundtrack :/#I feel like it ruins the mood of the scene (it was still good though)#I also... Generally don't like the direction they seem to go for with Akutagawa's character in the anime‚ he seems quite a bit flatter–#compared to how he is in the manga. He can't be angry and evil ALL the time you need to show that softness get through from time to time.#If not what even is the point of his character. Yet in the anime he's angry (and not distraught) when he loses the mine craft and he's–#angry when he's questioning Atsushi about his motifs and he's angry when he's bragging about Atsushi's abilities to Goncharov and he's–#angry when he makes the promise with Atsushi at the end of the episode and eventually he'll be just as angry even when telling Atsushi–#to run away as he's sacrificing his life for him. It is pretty flat at the end of the day.#If I can say something about K/ensho Ono without being killed I think they do contribute to making him feel angry all the time.#But that said it's all probably poor directing choices (or simply choices I don't agree with).#Also‚ about cuts. Usually I try to be lenient about it– I understand it's hard to fit in everything and b/sd already does a very–#good job by adapting the manga almost panel-by panel. It's just that... You skip Akutagawa showing compassion for Atsushi after the–#orphanage director died. You skip Atsushi sharing the same compassion when Akutagawa loses his targed in the mines chase. You skip the–#“Nothing special about that. // I suppose he's far crueler than my own mentor.” line. And sure each of them may be negligible by their own#But together they wave a consistent web of relationship between the two characters you know? And it's a loss to omit them all#Well no mind. Again it was still a great episode overall!!!!#I think the colors in the mines could have been prettier in the mines but we can't have it all#Off to season 4!!! Omg I can't believe we got this far :DDD#random rambles#FINALLY was able to catch up in time for the season 3 finale!!!!!!

Thinking about how people tend to pick up on specific words from other languages they're learning (especially slang) and use it over and over, like Pac saying "Shenanigans" or Fit saying "Fofoca" or Phil (and the rest of the server practically) saying "No Mames."
It just reminds me of my time working with Japanese college students, and how they all suddenly started saying "Awesome!" practically every other sentence one day after hearing me say it + explaining what it meant to them. It still makes my heart melt a bit thinking about it.
#i talk#I MISS MY STUDENTSSSSSSSSSSSSSS#I MISS WORKING WITH JAPANESE STUDENTS I MISS MY COLLEGE STUDENTS#AGH#anyways I'm trying to wrap up chapter 3 of Love will cost you an arm and a leg tonight so it can be posted tomorrow#I'm fixing up the ending but things are looking promising#qsmp talk#I suppose#It was so cute though I think I explained it like:#''Awesome is a bit like すごい! You say it when you think something is really cool or if you're excited / happy about something''#Not to brag (I'm gonna brag) but I was the favorite mentor / teacher in the group#One of the students said they really appreciated the way I spoke with them#Because I always spoke clearly and at a good pace for them to follow along#But I was willing to give them Japanese translations (or approximate translations) if they were struggling#it made me feel all warm and fuzzy#Anyways this moment made me realize I do say ''Awesome'' a lot lmao#It's a good word what can I say

Okay this might be a really weird ask so I'm sorry in advance but- what does Sera smell like? Does she smell like feathers because she has wings, like Vincent? (Again hope this isn't weird..)
Not weird at all! Lol a few people have asked before, you're all good.
Birdpeople have notoriously weak noses. Their sense of smell (and taste by proxy) is pretty dull as a result. It's partly how Ser's food is always plain and Vincent smells like a SAW-scented teen who's been tarred and feathered. Sera doesn't particularly care about expensive perfumes like someone (cough Sonia) but she does like floral scents.
She smells like Lavender (Body wash/Shampoo) and baby talc powder. (Powder keeps her wings nice, dry, and itch-free.) When she's not working she uses a rose perfume Nate gave her.
#birdpeople tag#I neglect the birdpeople tag a lot... gotta catch them up one day#She doesn't have the 'feather' smell. She's always on top of herself. Vincent's waterproofing makes him smell a bit like wet chicken though#Monica loved lavender. She put it up all around the house to help her sleep. It's the little things that remind Sera of her.#“It is NOT baby powder I don't want to hear it” “Yeah okay sure Sera are you cranky? want a nappy poo?” “...You are on thin ice Sonia”#Okay so thinking about what everyone smells like is oddly fun lol#Nate smells fresh all the time. He's all washed clothes and colognes like Polo Blue.#Amon smells like basic bodywash#He doesn't care too much about getting something fancy and will brag about his 5 buck cologne being a steal#Ricky smells nice. He goes out of his way to get nicely groomed to “get all the baddies 🤪” Okay Ricky.#He doesn't smell like anything when in goo form though.#Sonia smells like expensive perfume and body oils. It's awesome but can be a bit much at times. Vincent could not care less about it#Sonia would rather die than be rustic.#Vincent smells like Vincent. He is ironically extremely hygenic but the odds are never in his favor#Titan smells like caked blood#Dr. Strohl smells fresh and nice but also has a hint of retro tv static smell. I do not know how to explain further.#Uhh something something variants smell different depending on their habits not necessarily their bodily composition#Seraphinatag#ark_systema

i love how sometimes i will have wholeass conversations with myself which are about things which would probably make for an insanely good philosophy doctoral thesis. but i dont write em down anywhere or tell em to anyone else so i forget them like 15 minutes after I say them and then just move on with my life
#grymms spectacular fucking posts#i was in the shower having a whole convo about the human tendency towards labels and how they are usually applied and how they can reflect#upon the groups and cultures and societies within which they exist and how oftentimes they can be counterproductive by overcomplicating#communication as opposed to streamlining it#this might be a bit more of a linguistics and/or anthropology thing than philosophy but thats just the most recent example of this#also im not saying this to brag or say im smart cus being a good philosophy doctoral thesis doesn't mean something is intelligent#being a philosopher doesn't necessarily require intelligence. just reflection

i just got my first fulltime job salary and like. this is only two weeks' pay and it covers almost two months of living expenses under my current lifestyle
#for the past 8 years my budget was about 500 euros a month for utilities food extras (like clothes and gifts and trips) sports and savings#which means i was living off about 1000 a month total#including rent#and now for the first time in a good while i can actually save a decent amount??? i can just go out and buy clothes if i need to#i can already feel myself relaxing a little bit knowing that (fingers crossed) i'm entering this stable new phase#and it's only two weeks worth of money#what the fuck#also im not trying to brag i just didn't realize i was worried about money all the fucking time and now it's sinking in that thats over#capitalism is still evil

After the closure of Fredbear's Family Diner the animatronics were likely no longer being used as part of the main band, just as walk around characters, so it'd make the most sense if the springlock suits had the endoskeleton removed. To. Yknow. Prevent horrifying and unnecessary injury
#springlock suits#If they did that#it would certainly make it easier to imagine how William murdered several children while in a suit#no locks to fail with blood splatter#and you don't have to imagine him taking off the suit fully everytime in order to attack#And of course the Springbonnie in the saferoom would've been a model that simply didn't get this treatment#some troubles if you imagine Springbonnie in the saferoom WAS used for the murders#id say its william silently bragging/showing off how skilled he is with the springlock suits#the movie showed that the locks can withstand quite a bit#and the murders dont necessarily have to be bloody#in the end tho#i dont think freddys did this#considering the fnaf 3 recordings#fnaf#five nights at freddy's

I woke up at a reasonable time I contacted my realtor I picked out houses to look at this weekend I set up an appt with my mortgage person I did my dishes I did my laundry I took out the piles of trash/empty boxes/etc I decluttered every surface in my apartment I dusted I picked up so much junk that was on the floor I put clothes away I shoved a lot of stuff into boxes and put the boxes in a closet/corner/etc I cleaned my water bottle I cleaned the bathroom I cleaned the window and window sill that I use for late night moody gazing time I fed myself I reviewed my finances I brushed my cat
and I finally feel 72% less overwhelmed by life than I have in ages
All of this is stuff that has been needing done for a long while and somehow I’m supposed to manage these things while also working every day? I’m never going to manage that man I’m going to have to build in “get my life together” staycations into my work time off from now on which is. A bit annoying as that means I have less time off to use for fun things like ACTUALLY GOING ON VACATIONS and doing fun things but I will adjust my life as I need to remain sane because I will love myself and meet myself where I’m at instead of trying to force me to be a way that I’m not 😙
And now. It is 5PM. I have worked enough today. It’s now edible + sudoku + bob’s burgers time baybeeeee 😎
#starlight personal#I just wanted to pat myself on the back for getting so much done today when it’s mid-PMDD luteal phase hell#so this is a bit of a humble brag I’ll admit that but I am genuinely proud of myself for knowing my limits#and working with my brain instead of against it#if I need to take time off for this stuff then I’m gonna do it because I deserve some ease#I don’t have enough time-energy-stamina to do this type of cleaning and also work and a weekend isn’t enough time to recuperate and get -#on top of things - and I’m balancing self-care (self-indulgent) and self-care (practically helpful)#I did things that were good for me (made my living space habitable and crossed things off of todo list)#and now I’m doing things that are good for me in a fun way (getting fucked up and doing puzzles)#I wish I had a jigsaw puzzle FUCK that would be the only way to make today better#self love and self compassion is hard and I feel stupid and silly BUT THAT’S OKAY it’s worth it!!!!#I cannot wait for the edible to hit so I can take a shower with spiritual significance#that’s the best part of weed tbh it’s getting to a nice level of high and then taking a shower and remembering that life is magical#high showers feel SO good and refreshing and it’s probs one of my favorite experiences in life

It's one of those subtle things/only there if you look, but in general I'm a big fan of Short King Shadow/having Sonic be the taller of the two, and it's one of the few headcanons I apply to SCC lmao. Platform shoes and/or cybernetics, I don't give a crud, it's just funny
#shadow the hedgehog#sonic the hedgehog#tagging so i can find them later. don't mind me#I don't know what it is about shadow being a compact little grump but it feeds the neurons in my brain like you wouldn't believe#also i just feel like it's one of those things sonic would hee hoo a little bit about in any universe#gotta take those bragging rights where you can get em#ness mess#sonic chaos control
