GRAAAHHH SORRY THIS IS SUDDEN BUT OH MY GOD I FINALLY FOUND YOU. IM THE BENREY THAT RAN UP TO YOUR BOOTH AR AMW THIS YEAR AND MY FRIEND BOUGHT ME LIKE ALMOST ALL YOUR VALVE STUFF, I LITERALLY CRIED WHEN I GOT BACK TO THEIR ROOM CAUSE LIKE DUDE. THAT MEANT EVERYTHING FOR ME, I WAS GENUINELY SO SO SO HAPPY TO SEE THE FANDOM IS STILL ALIVE AND IVE BEEN LOOKING FOR FANS IN THE WILD FOR YEARS. THE EXPERIENCE WAS ENLIGHTENING TO SAY THE LEAST AND IM SO SO JOYOUS ABOUT IT. THANK YOU SO MUCH !1!11! :•3
:D !!!! HI!!! I REMEMBER YOU!!! THANK YOU FOR STOPPING BY, I'M SO HAPPY IT WAS MEMORABLE FOR YOU!!
people who are so enthusiastic about the things i make and the fandoms i rep at my booth are THE #1 coolest part of the experience 🥺 i feel like convention artist alleys these days are mostly filled with the same 4 popular anime/mobile games and it's really hard to find less popular anime, let alone things like video games and webseries. you would not believe how many comments I got that people never see things like Team Fortress 2 or Portal in AAs, let alone stuff like Infinity Train or HLVRAI 😭 the people who recognize them are always SO excited and then I'M excited and we are BOTH excited and nerding out together. it's fantastic!!!
the hlvrai fandom is definitely still going strong! i still see a lot of fanart and community posts and my sales on my few hlvrai things on my etsy have Not slowed down lmao. i'm sure if covid didn't happen there would have been so many benry cosplayers in 2020. we were ROBBED </3 i've seen You and one benry cosplayer at ACEN last year and that was IT </3 </3 </3
#ask#agoraphobiclemons#at anime central i had an admin for one of the radiotvsolutions folks stop by my booth. they were also very excited#to see my art prints i had of the science team!! they were also very nice :3 and a neopets fan. big W#hlvrai is one of those fandoms where you might not meet them super often but when you do they're the coolest people#anyway hearing from people who saw me at cons is so so so fun#im booked for the same con next year already and fingers crossed i can get into acen again#anyway. fellow artists. bring some merch for things that aren't the biggest thing in the world#if everyone's selling genshit midpact you have to split the attention of every attendee who plays it#if you're the only booth selling something thats only moderately popular though. you'll get all that attention to yourself#and everyone that recognizes it will be really really excited about it. and then its not a Transaction its an Interaction and its FUN#i am saying this as somebody who never watches popular anime or plays gacha games pleeeeeeease diversify your catalogues dhjbdsfbhj#i started attending cons in 2016 and the 2016 ~ 2019 cons were completely different from cons in 2022 ~ 2024#and 'oh well they're Anime Cons ofc they have an emphasis on anime' isnt even an excuse because before 2020 it wasnt like that#esp here in chicago where we have like. three pop culture cons total. and they all have Anime in the name. doesnt stop anybody#or at least it didnt used to#anyway i am mentally pinning this ask in my brain corkboard and i will look at it forever <3 fandom is beautiful#THANK YOU FOR THE MESSAGE !!!! <3

Reminder that hating humans is not an alternative to loving nature. You add nothing by saying you wish human kind went extinct. You add nothing by saying humans are irredimable monsters. You are helping no harmed animal nor plant nor fungi nor microorganism by shitting on humans and, as a nature lover, you are my least favorite kind of "nature lover" because you don't like nature, you hate humans
#Got reminded out of nowhere of a “friend” who called herself animal right activist#She wasnt an animal right activist. She was a PETA cocksucker#Once asked her which animal would her be if she could be any and she said “none because humans possibly already enslaved them” like??????#Girl we are having FUN we are being SILLY We're just enjoying WHIMSY get your nihilism OUT of my animal nerding hours#She was also a terf. pro abortion. The stereotype of annoying vegan and broke with a guy because “he wasn't serious enough” (he was-#Literally just a guy with a sence of humor. She wanted to date fucking batman on levels of “seriousness”)#So yeah I hate people who think hating humans is a replacement of loving animals#Because she never loved animals she just used them as a way to say she wished all humans died#She wasnt even into the dark hashtag depression wave she just wanted a global genocide out of “tee hee hee” I fucking guess#and used animals as her excuse#stupid rant but this is my fucking house and i post what i want#saf orate hour#personel kid#<-egh the oversharing in the tags compensate it

i feel like the biggest buzzkill not liking metadad content fjfjfjdr
#its not even bc of isat making me dislike fandomified found family that tries to force everyone into the mommy/daddy/sister etc#role#(while also getting mad and going ‘’you cant ship those two characters because we decided they were siblings in the found family’’#like ik i admitted i did that with sirica and joe but thats because i was a closet lesbo who had a crush on her and didnt know how else to#explain why i hated sirica being shipped with a boy. and i wasnt even double digits when i did that)#ive just never really cared for the concept. hes like a cousin at best if we stick to those rules#at least with kirby i can understand that bc kirby is a child and lots of ppl love the hc that mk is his dad#and hes in a mentorship role towards him in the anime anyways so you could still expand on that#but with joe and sirica ive never cared for it. mostly bc those two have parents that they love already#and while theyre deceased its still clear that the two are fine on their own#and it feels weird that theyd want meta to be their dad with all that baggage yknow. like they care about him now#and theyve worked things out but i feel like theyd just feel weird about that#anyways its not a bad hc but i felt like a real asshole going into the tags last night and seeing that everywhere djdjdjdj#and i could just go ‘’he would not say that’’#echoed voice

Ok so they still can't find any signs of injuries, but she does have a fever. So they're putting her on some meds stuff to hopefully help with that, and if she's not better by next Thursday, we're gonna do some blood tests for her. They think she has a virus, Could be the same one that gave June her cold earlier this month, but a different manifestation of it. So here's hoping the meds help her!!! It's the same stuff that the emergency vet gave me, except this time double checked to ensure that I don't get empty capsules (bc for some reason the packets come with half of them empty??? Weird af). And also a fluids thing that will help her in the short run with hydration and fever. She's a grumpy kitty for being manhandled so much (as much as Tally can get grumpy) but as soon as we got home, she jumped up to eat some dry food, which I think is a good sign!!! God Willing, she can beat this virus and get her health back up to what it should be. I miss my little chaos demon.
#speculation nation#animal sickness ment/#my bank account is now several hundred dollars lighter. between this and the emergency vet visit 😔#worth it for her though. i'll gladly pay thousands if it'll save her life. i was prepared to possibly have to last Saturday.#(when i didnt know what it was and felt like it could maybe be smth she might need surgery for)#thankfully doesnt seem like itll be That much. though if she does need the blood work thatll be another $200 gone 😔#so. hoping that the meds work so i wont have to lol#ive already spent like $300+ 😭😭😭#but it rly is so concerning seeing her so lethargic and in pain. she just does not feel good.#and given how dramatically my last cats' healths dipped... for Sammy and Cassy. yeah i didnt wanna risk it ending up like that.#wanna be proactive to make sure that i keep her around for as long as possible. bc i love her so so dearly.#she went from about 9 pounds to about 8 pounds in the last month tho... it really is so concerning#the vet wasnt the Most concerned bc 8 is still a healthy weight for her. so as long as she doesnt lose even More she should be okay.#she feels so light though... 😭😭😭 it feels so wrong. like shes just a little scrap. my poor little baby...#i hope i wont have to bring her in to the vet for at least another year. for a normal checkup. not anything else like this.#i will just do my best to take care of her.

i keep wanting to continue watching edgerunners whenever people hype it up again, but i absolutely hate lucy and i think i only got to like episode 3.
#shes just so annoying to me tbh#also the fact shes a grown adult that had sex with a minor is offputting#'its night city!!!111' isnt an excuse to me#even aside from that i just find her incredibly annoying and really unlikeable without even finishing the show#i wish she wasnt a main character bc i rlly dont like her LMFAO#and the fact shes a complete bitch to david but they have a romance is just#whyyyyyy#what if i dont fucking care about their relationship#ive already been spoiled on it so at least if i finally suffer through it i can keep reminding myself that she ends up on the moon alone#tbh i dont really care for david or rebecca eitheir#i like them both better than lucy but theyre still abit annoying#im just going based on clips ive seen later in the anime for the two of them#maybe they get better but idk if ill ever finish it#everybody in the show feels less well written and more stereoptical character tropes than the game imo#somebody made the perfect point abt david and lucys relationship#why do they expect us to care about their shitty ass relationship when they only spent like 3 episodes together?#i feel like they should not have gone for the romance angle whatsoever tbh#i like how the game has very optional romances (the main story sex scenes dont count as romance)#but youre forced to endure a shitty romance in the show

sorry to randomly go off but i've been thinking a lot about how when the p1 dub came out people said it was "boring" and it's like. yeah. it's pretty close to a direct translation most of the way through. because that's what tms told them to do. and i think some people keep expecting another part 2 holy temple of gags but you gotta realize: nobody gave a shit in the early 2000s. people didn't even give a shit accurately dubbing MAJOR anime they got silly with heavyhitters like pokemon and dragonball and so IMAGINE the comedic freedom of 'no fucking way these middleoftheroad average joe toonami viewers have heard of lupin. who give a shit talk about halle berry" LIKE??
I GUESS THE POINT I'M MAKING IS in the 20 years since then, tms has realized to some extent that there's a pretty sizeable fanbase over here, and so they're paying ATTENTION to how the dubs are written. they're picky now, and when you have a guy watching vigilantly over your shoulder you have to reel in all the off the wall shit. you MAY get a SMALL PORTION of friggin you may receive a SMIDEGON of CRAPCRAPCRAP but you will not be dining off of a full platter of chicken nuggets tonight my guy
#beyond that p2 is much more obviously goofy than p1. or p4 or 5 for that matter#and i've heard people say THOSE two aren't 'as fun' either and it's like Well. we have factors#it was kind of a perfect storm situation. the culture around dubbing wasnt half as 'we have to meet the original's standards' as it is now#AND this was an ALREADY silly anime they could make EVEN SILLIER and nobody was paying attention enough to say HEY CUT THAT OUT#i have many thoughts on this. the most important thing is you can guarantee they will say goemon as goyamon and that's what matters#lupin iii#cherry talk

these days i do sometimes see people literally just parrot the western-machismo ideal of 'ewww, feminine men, gross everyone who likes men should want big manly men and if they don't they're wrongheaded. smh silly misguided people' while simultaneously, and here's the rub of it and the part that makes me feel like it's bizarro world, they've truly and genuinely convinced themselves this is a meaningfully anti-bigotry position of some kind. and that liking men who are soft or thin or feminine is an insufficiently-progressive low-key-bigoted position. because it's.... i don't know, inherently fetishizing, or something. fuck if i know. i think this is bizarro-world thinking to a comical degree
i speculate it's one of the many internet phenomena that result from people looking at what's popular in their circles of awareness and going 'well this must be the societally expected default and so the principled position is to advocate for whatever its alternative is (and surely the fact i personally prefer the alternative as a matter of taste is just a coincidence)'
and not realizing that..like.. even though their internet sphere has a lot of Lisa Simpsons reading their own personal fandom version of Non-threatening Boys Magazine the western world at large still definitely eschews non-traditional masculinity and expects everyone to favor manly men rather than willowy bishounen.
so you aren't actually fighting any sort of pressing Good Fight by getting mad that some people like or depict sad wet wimpy thin boys instead of all longing for a big beef-o muscle archetype, and you should inspect whether in fact the issue is just that you dislike that aesthetic/character type (or, in a fandom context, that specific character). which if so is fine and you can enjoy the kind of content you enjoy without making it a smug grandstand
#i think this first started to bother me in the BJD world#about 15yrs ago when the first muscular options started showing up there was an implicit 'finally! the good shit!'#at the time this reaction made sense! primarily because it was a type of body that wasn't offered by companies before#but people (in the western part of the hobby) just kept expressing their distaste for slim/androgynous dolls even as muscular became common#at some point i really started to dislike the implications when people sneered at 'bishie' type doll styling as the un-enlightened default#when it was clearly on its way out in favor of machismo and muscle and so much of the world pushes the latter already#at this point as far as new dolls being released the formerly common soft willowy boy dolls are pretty rare versus tall ones with muscles#anyway lately ive been forced to notice against my will that this became a thing in anime fandom when i wasnt looking or something#and people justify it in like. absurdly self aggrandizing ways#'oh i like REAL men not wimpy skinny weak boys. ((pause)) because i'm a good leftist and don't Fetishize!'#you guys. you are literally just parroting the culturally ingrained american ideal that men be big and manly#just because youre annoyed that your friends like bishounen doesn't make that a..... Political Position.

Y’know, I somehow managed to avoid falling into an obsession with QSMP when it first launched, but I’ve been sucked back into Philza’s content through the sheer might of his charisma in the TOTK vods and I fear my time is running out
#i watch too many things#fucking teetering on the edge of so many could-be hyperfixations as if im not deep enough in this hole already#i havent even finished the totk vods im on the last one. but when i was binging them it really left no room for anything else#i fricken REBLOGGED the SxF movie trailer but i havent actually WATCHED it yet#yet im sat here wanting to rewatch the anime. while im still like 2 or 3 arcs behind on the manga ;-;#anyway it will be mostly phils fault for being funny af and the nail in the coffin will be chayanne#i mean cmon little tough guy egg in a duck floaty this game was rigged from the start. + the metagame shit with the admins is too funny#if phil wasnt the perfect person to keep me engaged in this sorta thing id prolly just be sticking to the cool animatics#sea rambles#qsmp#philza

ok.
#wjatevr. i dont care#no actually i do care. its about morishige how can i not care#i saw a very interesting take on why morishige chases yuka (not the tutorial idea. thats also interesting though)#something about how he was protecting her and he was never going to harm her#and i was like huh. maybe i misunderstood because i played the game when i was 11#and then i realized i literally played it last week#i cant help but disagree? yeah he wasnt planning on hurting her. it makes the whole chase scene very funny especially if you get caught#he keeps repeating the same thing and me and my sister joke about it all the time lol#but anyways. i think that even in the manga he wouldnt have hurt her even though he hints at his intent being more malicious than in game#i love this scene because i love hearing people talk about why the fuck he did this#let me talk about the manga instead for a moment actually i think this scene is much funner there#he stops for a moment when yuka stops crying before he breaks into this very obviously malicious grin#like he was EXCITED. the darkening had already startrd to show and its very clear while hes chasing her#the whole time he was just messing with her. he wasnt planning to harm her in the manga either#because he literally catches up to her. and he could've caught up to her multiple times had he not been taking pictures as she ran#all he did when he caught up to her was whisper in her ear. so#yeah. he wasnt going to kill her or injure her like in the anime. but does that mean he had any good intentions?#im not sure how this could be described as him simply helping her#and i could be remembering wrong but doesnt he somewhat explain himself in book of shadows?#i remember him saying something about him just having fun and enjoying how scared she was#so ive always just seen it as him enjoying the rush he got from chasing someone weaker than him#because it was partially the darkening right?#im not one to say that morishige is inherently evil or always had a huge interest in gore or anything. becausw its not true#but i dont want to deface his character by warping his intentions to seem less malicious#i need to get a fucking journal this is getting out of hand#finn.txt

did death parade become like some cult anime hit while i had my back turned? i've seen so many anime videos recommending it lately as one of the best and its been popping up in tumblr polls. when did everyone watch it cause it surely wasn't when it aired.
#ajax talks#i'm glad more people have seen it and are recommending it#i've been recommending it for years#but where tf did this sudden admiration come from#it was in an 'already popular' section of an anime video#like popular???? death parade#?????? it wasnt even popular when it aired

Bought the memorial plush for Cassy. It's gonna be here on Thursday
It looks pretty similar to Sammy's in style, just with a different pose. I'll see how they look when placed together.
#speculation nation#animal death ment/#fuck dude literally just looking at his Name made me cry again#typing out Cassy made me confront that yes. this is about my boy Cassy. my sweet baby boy who wanted to be a fat cat so bad#and swung his tail as he walked when he was happy. to which i would always comment 'that shit Swangin!'#and who would stuff his entire nose in tally's ass to sniff it. to which i would remark 'oh he's Snuffin!'#and who would always use the most garbled meows when begging for food. so he was my Garble Boy.#i already miss his obnoxious yelling. the way it sounded like a Mraaaaa. the way he would sometimes draw them out super long#i wish id taken videos of it. i dont think i have any. because i didnt think id Need to look back on them like this.#he wasnt even 2 years old yet... i didnt think id have to worry about this for at Least another 5 years...#sometimes life is really unfair. he deserved to live a long and happy life. i wish i couldve given it to him.#negative/#sorry for posting so much about this. it was just super sudden and im kinda wrecked by it lol#this time yesterday i knew something was wrong but i Never thought he'd actually die. he was so young...#im just glad i got him to purr in the end. made him happy one last time at least.

#(ramblings in tags. dont read if u dont wanna see criticism of female character writing in naruto)#(i think im pretty chill but it's still negativity so look away if u dont wanna see this)#my hot take (?) is that the naruto author is 100% a misogynist and that HAS to factor into your analysis of his female characters#im only getting thru the anime in increments bc the way theyre written is so frustrating#and fandom discourse surrounding them isnt great either#(i already know the gist of how it ends bc the ending is infamous for being hated so idc about spoilers)#from what ive seen everyone generally knows the female chars are written terribly and arent respected by the author#but dudebros hate them for gross misogynist reasons#and in contrast fans of those female characters get so defensive that they loop right back around to being misogynist#idk how to explain it but its odd seeing fans say “its empowering actually!” for the female chars to end up in miserable marriages#with less combat involvement than the male chars despite taking up the same profession/training#like yeah in a vaccum these conclusions are fine and completely neutral. but we're not in a vacuum. this was written by a male misogynist#how do i articulate that u can personally like characters w/out pretending misogyny didnt play a role in their development + conclusions#and critiquing the way female characters end up is not misogyny. its basic media analysis#like if i were to apply this to MHA i would say Midnight's death was poor writing in comparison to Nighteye's (narratively similar)#bc it supposedly was supposed to give development to the class. particularly Momo since Momo was the one she was rooting for#however hori did not bother showing more interactions between Midnight and her so it falls flat. her death even happens offscreen#and Momo wasnt there to confront the ppl who murdered her. it was Mina. so Midnight's arc wasnt completed satisfyingly#her death ends up becoming meaningless for Momo's development and purely for shock value so the war has stakes#as opposed to Nighteye and Mirio having a fleshed out relationship/backstory and a proper goodbye#there was a difference in the way the author wrote male mentorships and female ones. critiquing that is fine#now imagine if some Midnight fans went “its misogynist of you to downplay her death. she was noble and heroic and a girlboss”#it misses the point completely bc they interpret writing criticism as shade against her as a person#anyway thats what a lot of female character discourse in naruto feels like#and thats not even mentioning the cesspool of dudebro sexism but i avoid them so i dont see it as much#anyway in conclusion naruto would probably be a great series if the author wasnt a raging misogynist#sorry for the rant#my post

I wish that I was more
#sad hours at the huskin bee#personal#graduating soon and the animation department is collecting photos of everyone in the drive#and seeing all these group photos of everyone in the program makes me realize how distant i am from them#and how close knit everyone else has become...#ive never been good at making friends and within like the first few weeks of school it was like everyone got to know each other#and the few friends i made in the program left after the first year#i wish my social anxiety wasnt so bad i tried harder to make friends in college#also i have an essay due on monday and i might just not do it#or itll be really half assed#ive been doing well so far in that class so if i dont do it i think the least id get is a C#idk maybe i can still make friends w these ppl after college somehow but itd still feel weird bc i had a completely different shm experience#than they had#ahhhh#i can imagine a future reunion where ppl will talk to be about old drama that was big among this giant friend group#that consists of most people in my year that ill have no idea what theyre talking abt#bc im never in the loop abt anything ever lol#this actually happened at my hs animation reunion except i actually knew and talked to most ppl in that class#i wasnt like super close to most of them but i had a few closeish friends#and i know one of those friends probably werent/arent in the know#also like i did hear abt relationship drama back in the day bc gossip spread p easily#anyways i was told completely new information abt someone getting stalked back then so thats wild#and apparently there was a super handsome guy in our class that i for some reason have zero recollection of#point is i be the last person to know something and if i know smth then everyone probably already knew#which is annoying. i wanna hear gossip too. even in my own family my sisters will tell each other and our mom about shit that went down w#their friends or our cousins and i only hear abt it when im in the room#so i end up hearing a lot but never directly and sometimes not in full#man i shouldve gone on more college field trips#shouldve done a lot more in life that my insecurities get the way of#tbh i genuinely think i might have a form of undiagnosed anxiety; tism; or some other mental disorder
