I haven't seen this on Tumblr yet. Cory Booker has held the floor of the Senate for a 16 hour and counting filibuster and it's all streaming on YT. Currently almost 30k people are watching. You can become one of them without even moving from your screen. In the category of "the absolute least you can do" to support a democrat actually doing something... maybe give it a watch.

youtube

#one of the other senators is asking the world's longest question right now so cory can rest his throat lmao #politics #uspol #i don't usually post politics on this account #but i don't want to log off to post it on personal #so here we are #i'm furious at the senate and I am just waiting to vote for anyone who'll primary schumer in my state #but that doesn't mean i won't support something like this #of course it's performative but right now politics is performance #and turning it on does me no harm #i just need whatever noise in the background while i work anyway #booker was reading letters from his constituents and crying when i turned it on #Youtube

So,I read silver's relaxation vigente and now I'm sad for the poor boy. If lilia broke up silver's curse why is it acting so strongly on him?

to be fair, the chronological placement of his birthday story just doesn't make any sense in general. like, it can only really take place during his second year, since Ace and Malleus are both there...yet we have seen pretty definitively what Silver was doing on the evening before/morning of his 18th birthday, and it was very much NOT his history homework. this myth?

jk jk I think it's just one of those card stories that's meant to be more...perpendicular to canon, if that makes sense? 😅 like a lot of them aren't really supposed to fit into a specific point in the timeline; instead all the characters and relationships tend to be somewhere vaguely post-episode 1 (occasionally with a bonus post-6 Ortho) except Yuu is already friends with everyone and nobody is surprised to hear them call Malleus Tsunotarou.

mostly they can get away with it, but it starts getting a bit weird with the cards that are supposed to be set at specific times. :T for those I think you gotta just kind of suspend your disbelief and take 'em as, like...little what-if AUs, or something like that! it's not exactly not canon, but more like. this is Silver's birthday if none of the narrative development happened and so his curse is still in effect, or something. 🤷 uhhhh basically Twst's timeline is an eldritch thing that cannot be perceived by mortal eyes, to try will lead to nothing but suffering, down this path dwells only madness.

that said I do 100% accept the presented canon that Silver's roommate is in eternal torment. this is the real victim of Twst right here.

#art #twisted wonderland #twisted wonderland spoilers #kutsurogi my room #silver runs a comb through his hair once and instantly becomes a sparkling oujisama #the timeline may not make any sense but i believe it #i mean you can kind of see how they've been trying to work around the fact that we're in year 5 of birthdays #these ones take place the morning before the party! these ones are all set on the same day and they're at a museum!#and yet by my count we're still at everyone having at least three mandatory birthday parties with three different mandatory birthday outfit #nrc is ridiculous but is it THAT ridiculous #(don't answer that)#same with halloween tbh #(that one line in lost in the book nmbc where malleus is like 'i can't wait for sebek to have his first nrc halloween }:)'#while yuu is RIGHT THERE and actively tsunotarou-ing it up...)#it's just inevitable after a certain point i think given they're going for a sort of timeless non-spoilery feeling to the stories #so you gotta be willing to just roll with some of it #(i say after writing this whole post about how silver's birthday is unstuck in time)#that said while i don't personally subscribe to the time loop theory...i mean...#is it discontinuity or the world's most incredible foreshadowing? time (so to speak) will tell

labels are optional btw. i've seen some people complain about microlabels and how they are confusing, unnecessary, but the thing is. those labels are OPTIONAL. the people who use microlabels are using them because they feel that's what works best for them. you don't have to use any label you don't want, even if it's description technically matches you. that's why things like ace and aro are spectrums. you could use a microlabel, or if you feel it works better to just call yourself ace/aro, or simply aspec, there's options. and you don't even have to use any of them if you don't want. you can go unlabeled. it's all up to you what you want to use for yourself. nobody is forcing you to use a label you don't want. that's literally the opposite of what we want htgfsdsf

my point is, if microlabels don't work for you, then just don't use them. don't start trying to invalidate others who do use them. microlabels exist so you have more options.

#lgbtq #queer #aspec #aro #ace #aroace #just putting that thought out there #i love microlabels so much but i can 100% understand why someone wouldn't want to use them as well #but just becuase they dont work for you doesnt NOT mean they are bad at all #i hope this was worded right lol #nothing specific really caused me to post this i just like thinking about this stuff haha

hello world i made a sweet little son for hualian with my good friend kiara (@hualianer) 🦆🤍

hua yazi is originally from a lovely fic written by her and i quickly got attached to this little goober so i made a design for him and now he's Our baby LOL i hope you guys can enjoy him as much as i do too!!

#i've never made a fankid before . that's how you can tell i'm really in the trenches #i think hualian would be pretty nervous about being able to raise a child right if they were to have one because of their own childhoods #but they're already so good to eachother it's only natural that they'd be able to raise a sweet and genuine kid themselves #i dunno family has always made me emotional and i think a lot about hua cheng's line about wanting family a Lot. and i mean A Lot #anyway YAPYAPYAP hi guys <3 still working hard on fic!!! the hualian grind never stops #heaven official's blessing #tgcf #hua cheng #xie lian #hualian #happy san lang sunday

For your gay little dogs

.

#principal skinner pride flag for my gay little dogs #you see this is why my dog people need to see the same spectrum of colors we do #I feel like their literal world view would be drastically altered if they couldn't distinquish between orange and green #I'd argue that red is a significant color in practically every culture #it's instinctual associations with danger food and fertility make it attention grabbing on a visceral monkey brain level #I strongly suspect the impact would be at least somewhat negated if it was a muted brownish khaki instead #meaning it wouldn't be used in visual communication nearly as much #I would have to center my art and worldbuilding more around yellow and blue because those would be the colors the dogs would see clearly #right? is that sound logic?#and that would just make me immensely sad because warm colors are my favorites :<#answered #m0notropa-uniflora #something that continues to boggle my mind is that there are animals that see more colors than humans #we like to assume that our color vision is the best we can see it ALL look at that rainbow there that's the full set #yes primates are well equipped in this regard compared to many other mammals like dogs #but most birds for example have more color receptors in their eyes they have more tools to work with and their rainbow is even wider #it's like sound everyone knows we can't hear sounds that are impossibly low or too high #and we can't process wavelengths of light that are too long (infrared) or too short (ultraviolet)#only what lands between those bookends (called the visible spectrum) reads to our human eyes as “light” and subsequently “color”#I hope I've understood this correctly I'm trying to say that there's a whole layer of vision we don't have the hardware to get access to #and that's just wild to me like we are fundamentally unable to imagine a new color that isn't already included in our built-in selection #but they're definitely there the unimaginable colors are in the room with you and a common pigeon can see them #uv dlc not available for your system

Your art is so, so, so, so cute. If you ever were so inclined, I would love to see your take on Charles finally getting to eat a plate of spaghetti

Edwin wasn't too sure he liked it, but I think he's convinced now!

ko-fi

#ask ask ask #dead boy detectives #dbda #payneland #edwin x charles #lady and the tramp scene be upon ye #well i can't be original all the time!#I think Edwin made the spaghetti using magic ingredients #he worked very hard to make it taste similar to the real thing #even though none of the ingredients are something you would usually find in pasta #(charles asked what they were and edwin said he didn't want to know)#so i guess new magic item: pasta ghosts can eat lol #at first i was going to draw charles laughing because i like to think he is the type to laugh when he's nervous #but it looked kinda mean so quiet wonder it is #For this is the night #and the heavens are right #On this lovely bella notte #maybe charles put the song on trying to be funny idk

("Always. Continuously. With increasing apprehension, and decreasing hope. I will love you if I never see you again, and I will love you if I see you every Tuesday. I will love you as a corpse loves the beak of the vulture. I will love you no matter what happens to you, and no matter how I discover what happens to you, and no matter what happens to me as I discover this." -- paraphrased from The Beatrice Letters, Lemony Snicket)

#svsss #bingqiu #luo binghe #shen qingqiu #lbh #sqq #i've been working through the series of unfortunate events and somehow that series has paired really nicely with svsss #the themes of cycling violence and what's justified and what isn't and what can possibly be done differently #and how trying to bring love and honour into the midst of it really changes nothing but also changes everything #it's just *chef's kiss*#i don't know how i can quite do my thoughts justice but i've spent the past few weeks quietly going between the two series (and mdzs and tg #as well if we're being honest they all hit similar questions and themes) and just reveling in the pain and ambiguity of it #everything is interconnected and it means you can never know what trauma and pain and necessity has shaped a person #each story goes too far back to ever ever EVER possibly see the full extent of it #at that level even communication itself is nearly impossible.#and because of that it's almost impossible to change anything. beat yourself apart and the outcome is the same #and yet ATTEMPTING to change things ATTEMPTING to do the kind thing the honourable thing is absolutely critical #because while you can change nothing you also have the capacity to change EVERYTHING #aaaaaaah i don't even know what i'm saying #but i read the beatrice letters today and the love letter just. killed me.#(obviously i cherrypicked some lines because it's three pages long but those ones felt right)#''i love you like a corpse loves a vulture's beak'' i just. can't get over that line.#to be completely changed. altered. destroyed. redeemed. purified. desecrated. reduced to nothing yet entirely necessary for another's life.#what a FUCKING line #anyway i was either going to blow up from thinking about it or else i had to exorcise it via art from an entirely different series #i've already done svsss and discworld why not throw a series of unfortunate events into the mix #i'll be honest folks i did not expect svsss to be the mxtx series that would fuck me up the most about the main ship #bingqiu is something else. i don't even know how to begin to approach my feelings on it. impossibility and necessity all at once #bizarre #my art

can't express accurately how happy it makes me that c.s. lewis did not leave room for many interpretations in narnia. it's christian and you can't get around it. susan chose to care more about worldly things than what matters and he said what he said. the lion is Jesus. evil is evil and good is good and people have to choose. and that makes some readers angry because it's nearly impossible to ignore and they want to ignore it. they want it to be something else and they can't make it something else without making it not narnia. love that. that is doing it right

#that's. how. it. should. be #if there's room for interpretation in your writing as a christian you are doing it wrong #if people read your work and get to pick and choose what it means and you left it OPEN to interpretation-#-and they can divorce your fantasy world from the truth? you are doing it wrong #looking at you john ronald reuel #readers you're upset because susan cares more about “nylons and lipstick” than Aslan? 1. that's not really what lewis said #2. you should be upset because she made the wrong decision #and if you're upset because you can't get around the christianity in narnia let me share something with you - that's the point #it's a christian series #it's telling you christian things. this is not lord of the rings. this is not Cool Fantasy World open to interpretation #you can't worship the fantasy world and ignore the christian truths #you can't separate the two. that's what it should be #that's what all christian writing should be #if you write something amazing and centuries later people host parades for your fictional world and there's no God in it? no truth?#wrong. you did it wrong. they should not be able to separate the two - unless the point of your writing was to write a cool story #congratulations you wrote a cool story. but did it point people to the truth? unavoidably? no? then what a waste of freaking time #what a waste of a beautiful God-given talent #okay I got off on a tangent #my point is: be upset because Narnia is Christian and you can't get around that with ease #I am so. glad. you can't get around that with ease #this is why Lewis is my favorite author in the root of me #he did it right. this is what we as christian authors should aspire to #not LOTR. Narnia. NARNIA.#christianity #narnia #the chronicles of narnia #thoughts in the tags #doverstar's thoughts #writing #authors

A Lounge of Lizards

#rain world #rainworld #rain world lizard #rw lizard #my art #fanart #I had a set of lizard busts I've been meaning to polish and decided to used them for color practice hehe #My overall goal was to have distinctive vaules while keeping a more limited palette #The challenge came from the fact that on the surface the colors can feel and look quite similar to each other #But play with them just right and you can a 'light' patch amongst your middles tones and vice visa #I think I did a pretty good job but of course there's dozens of things to look more into hehe #I also took a lot of inspiration from momopatchi. They're color work is just SO GOOD and I'm glad I captured a tiny bit of that spark here!#Sigh is feels to feeling have more splashes of color in my gallery once more

Sleepover with two puny mortals that you're in love with (and everything can go right).

Lowkey based on a fanfic I was writing, but as usual I haven't the confidence to post it! Yeah~

Had this in the drafts for months,,,, figured I'd finish it up now so it's done. I like to kinda have some Finished art on the page hahahaha

#me when I'm unable to do streaming and music bc of my flu so I have time to focus on art instead #I recommend having multiple hobbies yall #hobbies you can do in different situations I mean #anyway this fic was so cute I'm ngl #it was meant to be timkon but then Bern materialised and had some extremely sweet moments with Kon and then ended up with the three of them #getting together casually and feeling it out as a three and then BOOM they're all in love #also Tim quit being a field vigilante and became a new comms guy (without alfred Barbara was rly just In A Situation)#and I fixed a few patches in the insane working conditions of the Wayne family business #basically it was extremely self indulgent because Tim's cool and chill vibe taking over WE and also performing a coup so Batman could retir #resulted in the family just kind of chilling out #and so he became free to explore romance and his Tim life (like he wants to do!)#bat workers rights!#art #digital art #fanart #screentone #manga style #illustrationish #tim drake #tim drake wayne #red robin dc #kon el #conner kent #superboy #bernard dowd #timkon #timbern #konbern #timbernkon #oh Tim's new vigilante name was Stalker (I'm not good at naming things) but the fam tends to refer to him as Chat (bc funni)

Thinking on how the surviving Yellowjackets are present for one another’s deaths and talk themselves out of culpability. Thinking on how Lottie’s distraction contributed to Travis’ death, how she continued to believe and insist she didn’t kill him. Thinking on how Misty’s injection resulted in Natalie’s death, how she continues to distance herself from fault. Thinking on how Lottie is now dead. Thinking on how Taissa might have been there, but not in control, how that might feel like she wasn’t responsible even if her hands did the pushing. Thinking, thinking, thinking on how they learned this early. We didn’t kill Jackie; the cold did. We didn’t kill Javi; the lake did. We weren’t going to shoot Ben; the Other was. Thinking thinking thinking on how impossible it is to forgive yourself for heinous actions (or inaction) if you refuse to admit to it in the first place.

Thinking thinking thinking on how Natalie was the only one to fully accept the knife in her hand, the blood on her skin, the choice resulting in a man’s death. Thinking on how she came the closest to actually healing. Thinking on how she, from the start, refused the blinders the others need to survive.
