I need the second season of Kaos YESTERDAY

But I also need the third season of Shadow and Bone and the first season of the Six of Crows Spinoff and the second season of Dead Boy Detectives and the third season of Dirk Gently and the -

it’s actually so wild to me that this fairly quirky YA type show gave both of its main characters deaths that can, in one way or another, solidly be considered hate crimes. they were both flat out murdered as a result of being A) gay and effeminate or B) brown (south asian, specifically) and you could argue whether or not those kids thought of it that way in the moment or whatever but the bottom line is that they would not have been in the situations that killed them if they weren’t of their respective minorities. like legitimately that is a ballsy choice for this kind of netflix show, let alone for the two Main Characters, and i respect it big time

Do you have a ref for your norman? I love your designs so much they bring me such delight and I was just curious abt that 👉👈

Well first of all THANK YOU SO MUCH for the kind compliment, I’m super glad you like my designs !! And secondly, I'm not at all in the habit of making references for my character designs so I actually didn't have any for my son. So thank you for giving me a good reason to make this overly saturated doodle page of my boy hehe

in the next mission impossible movie there better be a scene where the one (1) female agent they have has to seduce/flirt with a guy to get information out of him except when she tries, he makes it clear he’s not interested and says something implying he’s gay. so she walks away and into the comms tells the team it didn’t work because “i’m not his type.” then we get semi-frustrated team members telling her “well then become his type, we need the info” etc only for her to interrupt with “i think one of you boys will have a better chance.” then the comms go silent and it cuts to each team member’s reaction of “😳” and the “oh”s as they realize he’s gay. except when it cuts to ethan’s reaction, he’s already sauntering over to the guy and we just hear him say “i’m on it” and then we get scenes of ethan seducing the bad guy and he gets to gay kiss him. if this doesn’t happen i will riot

rewatching the bolas day one purgatory vod this morning and it’s soul-crushing bc it really didn’t go downhill immediately. genuinely they had some weird kind of hope even after being killed repeatedly until both green and blue decimated half the team at the same time. the entire team made jokes and comments about how the other teams should remember day one, that they set bolas on whatever path they followed from this point forward. charlie messaging bbh “you changed my life”, foolish saying the other teams will never forget what happened today— there’s a bit of general fandom commentary about how bolas supporters (or bolas themselves) can’t let go of what happened on the first day of purgatory and it’s because day one is so narratively intertwined with what bolas becomes and how their team moved forward from that point, the base foundation of their synergy is the events of that first day. it’s an all roads lead to rome thing where it’s difficult to analyze bolas’ motives and actions without mentioning the very thing that they’re founded on, which happens to be the events of day one

me ? drawing ? i guess so..

The other day I was feeling so lost in my gender and overall self perception, feeling like I don’t even know myself anymore, I don’t know what I like or want, and the harder I try to grasp onto any visual for me to assign as a “goal” (gender/taste/style wise) the more it slips through my fingers and I just feel more lost and unsure

but then I started thinking “I wonder if I spend more time with friends, if I’ll start regaining myself again. Maybe bouncing against other people will make me see similarities and differences between me and others, and I’ll slowly start realizing who I am as a person again.”

and THEN I thought about Joshua’s speech in DDD, where he says “By ourselves, we're no one. It's when other people look at us and see someone--that's the moment we each start to exist.” LIKE… SO TRUE BESTIE!!!!

Btw I’ve given up on veilguard for now. I’ve been trying to just slog through it but at best it’s boring and at worst the dialogue makes me wanna pull my own teeth out. After seeing that particular scene with Taash, I’m just too worldweary to keep pushing, at least for now. As a nonbinary person I kinda wish they’d just called me a slur and moved on.

my thesis advisor asking me to send them my current draft, and me suddenly realizing I somehow haven’t written a single fucking sentence in 2 weeks, dudes it’s a pr nightmare (been hella unproductive the past weeks idk what tf happened)

[laomelettedufromage]

Yknow, I love Orufrey and if their relationship develops into an undeniably romantic one, I’ll be the first to be on board, but I also really really enjoy reading their relationship and feelings for each other as completely platonic because as an aroace person… they kinda have what I want tbh (minus, yknow, the angst elephant that’s ch 40)

i’m putting all my commentary on tgg into one notes document so i can cut down the unnecessary shit and then post it all at once with my review, but i wanted to post this one paragraph i just wrote ahead of time:

i am on page 36 so i’m very wrong about everything. also this is me speaking as a queer inheritance games fan who definitely doesn’t have the same opinions most het inheritance games fans so don’t worry if you don’t agree, i’m being silly for the most part :)

begging for lyra and grayson to have a rivalry, just rivalry, not rivals to lovers or whatever, just rivalry, and then they just vibe by the end. lyra please girlboss your way through this challenge and do not fall in love with any men. in fact fall in love with women. they haven’t interacted so far but i’m starting a gigi x lyra movement. i’m biased because i love the sun girl x moon girl but whatever. (sun girl x moon girl = my ocs (angie and star are their names) = also kinda sunshipduo??? (god i’m so not normal about them)) i am standing by this for the rest of the book btw unless something changes my mind. i believe gigi should be a chaotic sunshiny bisexual girl who has underlying trauma she hides with a smile (eccedentesiast) and lyra is the cold calculated arospec lesbian who has difficulty feeling/identifying attraction for people until she meets gigi and they bond over trauma due to them both losing their fathers and fall in love and win the games together. that’s it that’s the show

If you’re still out there erasing Tom Robinson’s queerness then 1) hey man have you nothing better to do 2) you continue to be wrong and nothing you ever do will be as consequential as writing Power In The Darkness and also you didn’t write the national anthem Glad To Be Gay so why are we even still talking

[seilon]

more and more it makes me kind of uncomfortable (for lack of a better/softer word) to call my own characters ‘ocs’. because like. they’re from a completely original universe and from completely original intertwined stories and all that. so why would i have to specify they’re original in the same way someone would when referring to a character they made for a pre-existing non-original universe/franchise/whatever? by that logic every fiction author ever would be referring to their characters as ocs rather than just. their characters. you know.
