This man holds my heart just like he holds these ducks
#Halsin#BG3#baldurs gate 3#Look I cannot put into words how much Halsin means to me#I do not have the vocabulary#But he is so gentle#and he is so powerful#like I knew I was done but the MINUTE I heard he loves ducks I was sent into oblivion#my art#I will love this man until the sun dies out

I still can't fathom what in the entire world I could have ever said or done to make that gerrysherry (also known as spot-the-antisemitism) person come after me, and try every possible way of reframing every anti-war feeling I have as somehow, secretly, anti-jewish. Unless they don't actually believe that, but they hope saying it enough will make people believe it?? I don't know them, never did anything to them, and yet this person has reportedly still spent weeks and weeks boosting the same thread over and over, in which they urge people to boycott my book - something I'm depending on to even be able to afford my home in the future - because they apparently insist I have only antisemitic reasons for wanting to support Palestinians. How would that even make sense?! Jewish people aren't doing anything to Palestinians, a government is. They failed to make any dent in my follower count which just keeps jumping up every day, and I'm technically making more income off my art than ever (even if it still only barely covers cost of living), but I can't get over the sheer principle of someone hoping they could spread misinfo like that with the hope of impacting my ability to live. I've never run into anything that personally vicious before, all over sentiments they just up and pretend I have? For what??
#palestine#israel#wait is it literally JUST because I used “zionist” to mean someone pro-war?? They did it first so I tailored my language to theirs#I don't use the word in my regular vocabulary and have barely any posts on my blog that contain it#because I do believe there's people who kind of identify as zionist but are also anti war and support palestinians?#Maybe that's incorrect?#I don't know enough about the term but I'd never knowingly use a pejorative against a whole nationality??????

Actually I don’t think you are actually fr an adult author if you can’t write something without a s*x scene in it
#<-trying to avoid our ancient enemy the evil bots#but literally. i will pick a book off the general fiction side and every time completely unnecessarily there will be such a scene where it#has no business being for the story#I’m about ready to fight over this#there’s been exactly one book out of the dozen or so I’ve done from that side that did not have it and it was Patron Saint of Second Chance#by Christine Simon#and I don’t think Road to Roswell my belovedest did either#but listen I think it’s a sign that something in society is fundamentally broken when I can pick too random books#and one is a cozy bookstore romance thing#and one is a weird travel fantasy that has nothing to do with romance#as a plot#and then both of them as soon as the girl comes across a guy and is like he’s likable#the next step is randomly try to sleep with him#evil evil evil evil#let’s not.#stop using sex scenes as shortcut for romance! it doesn’t work! you won’t have any!#this is wisdom and you should listen to it!!#I’m also gonna include the use of f-bombs in this post because if you can’t write a fantastical Victorian travel novel in fairy tale#style language without randomly using f bombs like do you even have a grasp of the language#those don’t belong in this story’s word set use your vocabulary!!#(there are times it makes sense in the story and the language catalog for the story and/or character for both of these but if you can’t do#story without them when they don’t belong that’s lazy I think#I’m throwing down the glove to adult authors I think they should try#this also goes for Jodi Picoult for whom the first thing did fall into the subject material but should not have been like the whole bull an#meat of that story at the expense of the actually interesting material#(couldn’t finish By Any Other Name between that the anachronistic feminism and the massive chip on her shoulder that seemed to be her subje#material

still kinda not over ichiro taking a bite out of his hamburger in the leaders bonus hypster track and going 'it's so good!! it tastes really meaty!!' lmao
#vee queued to fill the void#ichiro's been shown to be somewhat neglectful towards himself when it comes to food lol#he knows what tastes good to have made the world class yamada curry tho despite not having the vocabulary for it lol#and that's the most important part tbh lol tho i kinda wonder if he workshopped it with anybody 🤔#like in that dod chapter where samatoki gives ichiro his new home and business lol before daddy samatoki showed up#the bros were all eating convenience store bento boxes which means none of them were cooking for each other yet#and that might be consequence of their living space at the time lol but what if after the upgrade#ichiro felt more obligated to cook for his bros so they could grow well with good food and needed advice on cooking lol#i think it'd be cute if nmcd all got together to help ichiro learn to cook is what i'm saying lol#equally as cute is if the bros got together and taught themselves (tho that may have been a trainwreck lol)#but jiro and saburo both describe the yamada curry as ichiro's so that tells me it's usually an ichiro recipe#but anyway samatoki learned to bake for his sister ichiro would definitely be the same mindset#but let's give ichiro more happy moments associated with food like kuukou's lowkey already been trying to do lol#and have all his friends workshop the recipe with him 🥺🥺🥺#vee is arting#save for that kuukou comic this is the last of my art backlog lol#which means no more art for another three months or sumn lmao 😭😭😭😭😭😭#(i need to promise to myself to not go that long without drawing again lol 😭😭😭😭😭)

i encourage you to separate thinking of sex as too bottoms and switches and instead think of it like. you're a person having sex engaged in sex.
ok but the thing is I wasn't talking about topping and bottoming. I was specifically referring to the power dynamics of dominance and submission. And switch is when you like both. Because my partner and I were playfully engaging a bit with pain play and some power dynamics stuff because we'd both established to eachother that we're a bit kinky and were trying a few things out. Obviously i was a person having sex engaged in sex
#Sorry but I'm disregarding your unasked for advice#I know what I'm about#Obviously sex isn't abt doing things under strict terms but it's useful to have vocabulary to communicate once you stray from vanilla a bit

One last devastating blow
[First] Prev <–-> Next
#poorly drawn mdzs#mdzs#xue yang#A-qing#elle woods#THIS comic idea has been floating in my head for ages#apologies for the tonal whiplash but I had to do it.#I meant it when I said Elle Woods would return. She’s canon to the PD-MDZS universe now.#Xue Yang unfortunately got the wrong message out of Legally Blonde. The Classic Wuxia Theatre story.#I gotta say...A-qing has rocketed up my list of faves. As she deserves.#Everyone say ‘thank you’ to A-Qing for being the best. Rest in Vengence queen.#The greatest crime Xue Yang did was taking our queen of insults tongue away.#The call back to Song Lan not having the vocabulary to hurl harsh words at XY vs A-Qing dishing it out freestyle!!! SO GOOD#and so wwx’s empathy ends.#Yi-city was such a tragedy....Time to see what the crew does with all this information.

okay sometimes i see people talking about alastor's vocabulary as if he's remarkably verbose or witty compared to the other characters but i have to confess. i really didn't register it as unusual because that is also just how i talk on a regular basis
#just saw someone on twitter say that the words 'ornery' and 'wretched' were flowery language#like..... What.#what do you mean you have to google the things he says HE'S NOT SPEAKING ARCHAIC ENGLISH#but i understand that i am not normal in this regard‚ i unironically carried around a specialty thesaurus in elementary school#specifically to curate a more sophisticated vocabulary#so maybe this is just a me thing#hazbin hotel#alastor

I don’t think ppl give enough credit to rui for his dedication to fucking with people (outside of tsukasa of course) like. Knowing & acknowledging that nene wants nothing to do with him and Tsukasa on her first day of second year and deliberately following tsukasa to loudly ask if she’s getting along with people (just to be a jackass)? Implying his gift to akito will explode even though it won’t bc he wants to bug akito? Like I think rui at his core is full of love and a desire to make ppl smile but I also think he’s 200% committed to the bit first and foremost. If something will be funny he’s going to do it regardless of the consequences. Guy filled with zero social anxiety & a never ending desire to embarrass his friends.
#‘he’s insecure’ is very fanon. like I think he has hang ups over that obviously as one does when one is excluded from their peers for being#odd. but he’s never had that issue w the general public. w friends? a little. but he’s kinda moved past that#gestures towards the Halloween wxs story and (heavy sigh) rmd.#project sekai#in general I will die on the hill of rui and Tsukasa having so much more self assurance and confidence than ppl give them credit for#if u want a fail girl nene is right there. open ur eyes.#consequences of ppl only viewing him thru a shipping lense…#*nene* is socially anxious#rui canonically trespassed on ppls property to put on solo shows for several years.#i could go on a rant abt tsukasa & the portrayal of him w social anxiety despite the ample evidence against it but I don’t feel like doing#it in the tags bc it is entirely unrelated. rui and Tsukasa (handshake emoji) horrifically misrepresented by fanon.#2 end on a more positive note: everyone think abt the comic where rui is perfectly capable of understanding emu#and he has the ‘all perfect’ text after comprehending her fascinating vocabulary. beautiful. perfect wxs relationship moment.#read curtain call again. & the other rui focuses. main story in general. etc.

Juleka & Chloe's anytime the latter's parents are awful:
I really feel like Chloe would dye and/or cut her hair just to piss off Audrey (Juleka would be helping ofc, maybe it was even her idea hehe)
#ask#miraculous ladybug#chloleka#chloe bourgeois#juleka couffaine#would you believe me that i had the chloleka hair cutting idea since i started shipping them#chris would be there too ofc theyre siblings#and like chloe is having a crisis so she cuts her hair and chris tries to make it look better#he fucks it up even more#so he just calls juleka#and she solves the issue <3#i think that there was also some tension between chloe and her#because her identity as prima queen got exposed#and she flirted with her during akumas and that shit#so chloes crisis would get even worse because now shed have to face juleka after it#yeah i hope i get to include this somehow in the au#its a cool idea#its got everything#chloe chris sibling bonding. chloleka. emotional crisis. haircuts. probably a cat#i wanna give chloe a cat#a white one with a big tail#idk about cat breeds but its definitely a pure breed cat#idk if i used the correct word idk about breeding vocabulary#wow i sure do love yapping

I'm so in love with my friends. Every little mannerism or personality trait. I don't know how every one of them isn't being bombarded with love confessions when they're all so perfect and beautiful and funny and kind and
#for the record NO i do not have a crush on any of them i dont want to be in a relationship with them#my love for them all surpasses human vocabulary and remains completely platonic#THIS is the aromantic experience#platonic love#aromantic#aroace#qpr#queer platonic relationship#friendship#summer saying stuff

Is the English teacher good? I believe in bja supremacy but the trailer made it look like very standard sitcom humor
it's honestly pretty solid! i would say it's more toned down than caleb gallo and they're doing something a bit closer to sitcom-brand pseudorealism but a lot of the signature stuff (odd/unnatural-sounding dialogue, the camera work during conversations, the visual gags, the casual absurdism, etc) is still there. i do think that it's not hitting the sort of pat heartwarming triumph beats that i would expect from a standard sitcom with the same premise, and there's a lot of interest in exploring sort of casual self-absorption which has always been an interesting aspect of the characters bja writes/plays. i think it's worth trying out an ep or two and they are only 20 minutes! and his take on what's funny about being gay in sort of a modern american context has always been a lot more interesting and resonant to me than 99% of other "gay comedy" writing
#i have actually a lot of thoughts about the development of a sort of mainstream gay sitcom vocabulary#i do think that english teacher is subject to some of those same pressures due to just the nature of being a prime time network sitcom#but i think it does a decent job of walking that line between having a distinct creative identity and being marketable enough to succeed#it did feel recognizably like it's written for the same sort of audience as caleb gallo#it just also has some slightly easier access points for people who might need to be eased in to his style#anonymous#ask and receive

yeah, they don't have to get married. but excuse me if I think a gay couple getting married has a lot more value and meaning than a straight cis couple getting married. it is an act of pride and resistance, that was bravely fought for. correct me if I'm wrong but when dan came out to his family a relative told him that it was fine but it was a shame that he couldn't get married. what a huge fuck you it is to anyone that says that to a gay man to see them go there and GET FUCKING MARRIED!
#phan#I'm doing my best with the english vocabulary I have#sorry if my choice of words are not the best#the essence is there though#dnp#wedding hill
