SO @uniquetosmbody's Corazon Sanji AU took over my small brain therefore: FANART!

Honestly go check out the post she did because both the writing and art she did were amazing.

Basically, this fanart was more of a take on how Sanji in the AU is kept in high regard. Whilst Corazon was framed as a source of what not to do. Hence the darkness that covers his picture, and the smash on the glass (picture was punched).

Elsa, Anna, and Four!! It is actually a miracle I got this one done lol; as you can imagine, life has been pretty hectic! I had a lot of fun doing Anna and Elsa's outfits, and I choose to portray them after the first movie, because (hot take) I didn't like the ending of the second movie 😅 Also, I think their original outfits are more recognizable and more fun to do 😁

I think Four would get along great with Anna and Elsa; not only do they personify teamwork and learning to love people who are different from you, which is very important to Four, but I imagine they would also treat him like a little brother and accept him quickly. Furthermore, Elsa would understand him and give him advice regarding his secret of the true power of the Four Sword. And in regards to Anna, her childlike, energetic personality would probably remind Four a lot of both his Zelda and of the Minish.

Anna is extremely welcoming and her contagious smile would probably cheer up Four, and I imagine that he sees semblances of Elsa and Anna's personality traits in himself (Vio like Elsa and Red like Anna). I also think that they would be understanding regarding all the trials he went through during his adventures, and Four would love having two honorary big sisters!! I hope you all like it!! 🩵🩵🩵

hey guys, this isn’t my usual post and yada yada but a very kind man from Gaza has been reaching out to me for the past month or so asking for help for his family. previously he has needed money for a surgical operation on his brother’s hand, which has thankfully been met, but now he and his family are faced with displacement from Khan Yunis.

not only will this further disrupt their lives, it also prevents them from being able to begin operating on his brother, and risks amputation if he cannot get the surgery in time. they are unable to simply walk with all of their belongings, food and water, and being able to find transportation will help immensely.

I’ve set up a GoFundMe for their evacuation. The goal is only $500 *to rent a car. Please donate as much as you can or share with as many people. Thank you

** edit:

I’m also going to include the PayPal belonging to his friend, to be more direct. I’m sorry if this appears like a scam, I’m kind of new to everything about this, but I promise it’s real.

POST MORE SWORD OF FATE PLS IM BEGGING

i have very little in terms of actual art LMAO but i CAN explain the sword thing because i checked and i did in fact never make this plot point public. i struggled for a while with creating a villain for this story until i realized that. i put "sword" in the title of the game. of course it has to be about the fucking sword. DUH.

so i want SOF to deal very heavily with religion, specifically the way in which hyrule's religion forms post-sksw but pre-reincarnation. i've placed it on the timeline directly after sksw, making it the first actual reincarnation in hyrule. what this means is that there's no actual proof yet that the reincarnation thing is real and not just an insane bluff on demise's part, and so several key characters including link and zelda barely believe in hylia or demise at all when the story starts. my thought with this setting's version of ganon is that he's the polar opposite of the nonbelievers. The gerudo don't really exist as of now, but he DOES come from the desert region of hyrule--specifically, he was raised in a cultlike offshoot of the sheikah religion which interpreted the hylia/demise myth completely literally and believes that a doomsday is coming, heralded by the foretold return of demise. Because of this, he knows more about the cycle and how to set it in motion than basically any other character. Crucially, he and his people are some of the only ones at this point aware of the existence of the master sword.

ganon finds. a sword. a sword which he THINKS is the master sword. and this theory is only reinforced when the sword begins to speak to him about his destiny and the salvation of hyrule. unfortunately it is not the master sword and he ends up basically a pawn in the greater plans of what's left of demise & ghirahim within that sword, manipulated into attempting to revive demise and destroy the reincarnated hero and princess. he remains in denial until basically the very end of the final battle, completely convinced that he is the true savior of hyrule and LINK is the one being misled. ghirahim is a very good manipulator lol

The nature of time is that (culturally) Christian Euro/Anglo colonial consumers (hereafter white ‘people’) fetishize the idea of being ‘close to nature’ or ‘primitive’ or ‘savage’ and latch on to the idea that there are groups of people in the world who are somehow bestial or who have some kind of special powers from holding animist beliefs/beliefs that acknowledge the body as opposed to the Christian belief that the body is a kind of useless appendage to a person. We see this across decades from the 19thC to today in the racist fetishization of indigenous people across the globe, particularly residents of the Americas, Australasia, and southern/eastern Africa.

White consumers use a warped conception of other cultures to live out the fantasies that the Christian soul/body stuff engenders. You keep getting told that your emotions and physical sensations are the devil’s work? You want to get in touch with those physical sensations, but you don’t want it to interfere with your worldview? Simply project them on to a convenient group of people with slightly different conventions from you. Imagine how cool it would be to be 100% physical sensation (especially those pesky violent and/or sexual urges) and no mental burden, then unleash that in a way that causes millions of deaths worldwide via the dehumanization of entire nations of people just trying to live their lives. White consumers love a Proud Warrior Race Guy.

Flash forward to the 2010s, it’s generally considered impolite to spread the same propaganda that justified the genocide and dispossession of many different groups of people. However white culture hasn’t changed that much and normal human activities still need to be explained away to maintain the veneer of white intellectualism that has been used to justify white violence for years and years. You can’t just stomp around and clap your hands and dance badly, you’ve got to project it somewhere else.

But wait! There’s a community of people considered ‘tribal’ and ‘savage’, considered violent and bestial, who were never colonized! It’s…the Norse. Fetishizing early medieval North Sea raiders can’t be cultural appropriation, see, they’re white! It’s not offensive to replace an entire culture with white (male) ideas of what’s cool if that culture is totally unassociated with colonizer stereotypes and is in fact a culture of colonizers!

And that’s my theory on why there are so many Norse-inspired folk bands/video games/tv shows/memes/literally anything in the 2010s. VSaga not counted because that manga has been running since 2003 and is actually well-researched and comes out of a culture with a similar but distinct tradition of racism. The Euro storytelling tendencies of needing some kind of violent avatar have taken on ye anciente Norseman now that people care a little bit about the gallons of blood used to sketch other ethnic stereotypes. Done and dusted. Except the other side is that the fetishization of early medieval Norse culture is literally just white supremacist 101 and a lot of artists don’t step around that nearly as carefully as they should

my beloved imac from 2014 with a cracked screen that i conned my dad into giving me so i had a computer on which to do stupid freelancer shit for him but use primarily for personal use (file storage, use appletv to play streaming sites on our actual tv, play sims) seems to be……engaging in behaviors that for lack of a better way to put this best resemble when my elderly cat started having seizures after a hard summer of kidney problems and we had to be like. oh it’s the end the end? obviously less emotional than that but. you know. she’s had a long good life and maybe it’s her time. that’s okay. all things end. anyway. all this to say we are trying to coax her into not just waking up again but pretty please just giving me two files that are the backbone of the recurring stupid freelancer shit i do every month. please baby i have hand problems i can’t build those templates again. please.………

the touch of him, forever pressed into me (8164 words)

[ (6/? hierarchy of collapse) | Kaijou/Puppyshipping | @hurtcember 2024 Day 6: Touch-Starved ]

Summary: Alone, under the witness of his four walls, how can Katsuya assuage this loneliness birthed from a tenderness he could never learn to kill? (How many ways can I make Katsuya hurt – or hurt a bit less – as he goes about his day? + Myst attempts her first smut, but with hurt) (Potential triggers in ao3 link)

Click below for a few preview paragraphs!

Surrounded by his silent witnesses, these four walls his keeper – inured to the baring of hope and hurt, fears and longing, a future and the impossibility of one. Within this utterly generous extent of twenty metres squared he had loaned to his name, was this his willing prison or a borrowed refuge? Where every centimetre he stood in had been saturated, overflowing from expressions of laments, laughter, loathing, loneliness birthed from a tenderness adrift within the cage of his hollows – always aching; always alone, yet one he had never learnt to (and could not) kill.

This was his new ritual. One manifested from inhibitions of his soul untethered, calling for him from the dusk of his unattended yearnings.

Katsuya leaned his head back and sighed deeply. He held his breath as he would a cigarette – unwilling to cede, teeth lightly grinding, rolling the heat that coalesced just under his throat until it became almost unbearable – only then expelling it into imaginary spirals in the air. His physical body cried for release, held prisoner by a mind ensnared with the illusions of them he could not set himself free from.

Who needs sleep when each day brings ya closer ta ya grave?
