Hello! Many people have said this but ill say it too, I LOVE YOUR COMIC SO MUCH ( ´ ▽ ` ).。o♡
I really wanted to ask you about how you do the backgrounds? (Something i struggle with) whats the process? Like from start to finish, also, to do the rise backgrounds do you use reference from the show and generally real photo of ny? Or do you come up with them? And last question- The shadow and light on the background- Like HOW
i know it’s a lot of questions but i’m just so curious qwq and wanna learn to be better, thank you again in case you read this and respond, in case you don’t, i hope you have a nice day and a wonderful life uwu keep up the great work! (≧◡≦) ♡
Backgrounds are a really broad subject and I'm always a little overwhelmed when asked this question. Just like drawing the human body, backgrounds take time, repetition, and practice!
My answer got a bit long, so it's going under a read more :) but if you digest info better in video format I found this on youtube
youtube
It pretty much goes over everything I wanted to say, but in a much better way. I wish I had found it before writing all this out lol
ok, first of all, I'm not a teacher nor was I built to be one of those cool helpful art tutorial people who do a full coloured tutorial filled with illustrations. This is just going to be a messy "how I do backgrounds / environment layouts from start to finish." kinda thing.
... lets start with a sight tangent.
Sketch from Life!!!
If you want to get better at backgrounds I recommend doing some sketching out in the real world!
When I was first getting into doing backgrounds I went to cafes and parks to just sketch the buildings and objects. Sketch rocks, flowers, clumps of grass, garbage cans, bottles, tables, street signs, etc. If you are drawing a tree observe how the trunks twist, how the bark flows, or how the leaves are bunched.
If you can't leave the house the same still applies! Sketch the interiors of your house, the walls, or common objects like chairs and bookshelves. How are objects stacked? items on the floor?
If you aren't comfortable with drawing outside or in public you can take some photos to draw from! They are good for practice and you can use them again as references later. Alternatively you can find pictures online of buildings and objects to sketch as practice.
All spaces have objects in them, it becomes easier to draw those kinds of spaces when you already have spent time observing and sketching them.
ALSO! They don't have to be good sketches! It's just to build out your mental catalogue and strengthen your perception of perspective.
now the actual thing...
BACKGROUNDS
![Tumblr media](https://64.media.tumblr.com/d3dbec2ab1d17f1bc236fc76e8e8c4ce/3a5fda3a55ae111d-8e/s540x810/376d5555147dfec893256dd4057f5d963b9f6905.jpg)
(the pictures used for this are my own. I dug them out of my 2022 folder)
Backgrounds have slightly different rules based on what you are making them for. Videogame Environment Concept Art vs Animation Layouts vs Comic Backgrounds vs Illustration backgrounds.
They all follow the same basics, which I will go over here, but the intention and function of those designs are going to be different. It's all about how you set up the scene and what it's purpose is!
Brainstorming and Thumbnailing
I like to think about a location as though it is a character. An abandoned old house with creaky sagging floorboards is very different from a futuristic space ship with sharp metal floor panels. A gas station has a very different feeling from a library.
I usually start by asking what is this location's story? Why was it built and for what purpose? What kinds of things does this room need to fulfill that purpose? You don’t need solid answers, but its good to be thinking about it while you are working.
Next, sketch some ideas for how this place is going to look. For me, this usually involves drawing the idea from multiple angles and then making lists & small sketches of the objects I think should be filling the space.
![Tumblr media](https://64.media.tumblr.com/dd56c377595867b419956576dced32b0/3a5fda3a55ae111d-cd/s540x810/cbaafc82c6b8cef7737955a9d35a93df2a31c82a.jpg)
Example: The main character of my original work is a Wanderer. They collect a lot of things on their travels, but those items have to be small enough to be easily carried in a backpack. I wanted his room to be in the corner of an attic, walled off by curtains, and filled with trinkets. You can see some of my brainstorming above.
References
I only look for references after I've done some sketching and planning; this is to solidify my idea first so that I don't accidentally copy anyone else's work. I will make a moodboard with pictures of lighting, colours, items, rooms with specific ceiling beams, old chairs, etc. basically whatever I feel fits the vibe.
Honestly, I don't use references as much as I should. For ROTTMNT fanart I look at backgrounds and screenshots from the series to study the style. I also reference actual photos of NYC to get a feel for how Rise condenses the visual information.
In general, it's good to have references of real life objects/locations, because there are so many details like cracks in pavement, stickers on polls, crowning on buildings, fancy fencing, weird chair legs, etc. that you might not think of. It's the imperfect details that can make a location feel more alive.
Perspective
Once you have your chosen sketch we move to.... the infamous perspective boxes. Doing backgrounds is just learning to be comfortable drawing So Many boxes and carving items out of them.
![Tumblr media](https://64.media.tumblr.com/e33ebdf38bf242053946712760c40391/3a5fda3a55ae111d-a7/s540x810/1e7631e2fbb719cc651d2a102338c603f336792a.jpg)
Many better artists than myself have made videos on perspective, vanishing points, and all the technical bits. Videos like THIS ONE and THIS ONE are helpful (this post is great too!!). There are probably a lot of classes to be found on Skillshare or Schoolism. I learned a lot of this in my college art course, so I can't give you a specific video which helped me.
You can get by and be a good artist without learning this stuff. There are quite a few successful artists who have admitted they never bothered to learn perspective (one of these people even made a whole graphic novel series).
I personally avoided properly learning this stuff until I was in my 20s because I thought it would be boring and difficult to do. tbh I really wish I had learned it earlier because it's so much fun to make those silly little boxes imo. It looks scary and complicated but, just like drawing humans, it just takes time, repetition, and practice to develop the knowledge and skills.
Cleanup
You have your boxes and lines! Cool! Now to make a scene out of it. Fill in the details, get everything placed were you want it! Generally, the lines of each item will point back towards the horizon line, but they can have different perspective points.
Generally you would want to clean it up and get your room completely sketched before doing the lineart. I tend to combine the steps (not recommended)

Lineart
I've mentioned how I do this before. Closer objects have thicker lines and more detailed inside. Further objects have thinner lines and less detail. I didn't quite achieve that balance with the image below, but it's close enough.
![Tumblr media](https://64.media.tumblr.com/8769652d48550c2505b403670a9a978e/3a5fda3a55ae111d-e9/s540x810/2d4a5e58f03511d9afb25df591f3ae2e5a82b1f6.jpg)
Colours and Shading will have to be a separate post. In the meantime, I highly recommend the book "Color and Light" by James Gurney. I used to borrow it from my local library and a good chunk of my knowledge was learned from it :)
#Artist's Comic Rambles#asks#art related asks#thank you for the ask!! I'm glad to hear you enjoy the comc :D#i hope this was somewhat helpful...#i get overwhelmed by broad questions very easily haha#if you would me to elaborate on something specific I mentioned feel free to ask#i wrote this all out weeks ago and then forgot about it... I just added a link or two but yeah here it is

Jenson button My love, I am so incredibly proud of you and all you have achieved. It has been an honour getting to watch you train and perform for one of the most memorable things in music history. I am honoured that you chose me as your husband and that you have accepted me into your life. And with that life comes the public bit, and there is this post for. While I have said on many occasions how mutch I love you (both privately and publicly) I feel like your fans have been a big part of our love, with their support and even them introducing us (kind of). And I know I can never give you nor your fans anything close to what they have given me, but to come closer with one of them; here are some behind the scenes of The Eras Tour. Thank you all for supporting my wife in her dream, and thank you for telling her that I exist. To many more good years and your to come. (I got permission from tree and Y/n to post this)

Louis Tomlinson's Career History Pt. 1 and 2 [Post-1D] by notastrwbrysng2
Full credits to notastrwbrysng2 from X/Twitter. Reposting screenshots and texts for archiving purposes.
While I haven't done my own personal deep dive on this topic, I think this particular thread is a very informative and transparent (backed with public articles) + beginner-friendly. Not sure if this has already been shared here before but I thought I'll make this archive post anyway.
I also saw this anon of @twopoppies asking about H & L's solo careers after 1D's hiatus, so this feels like perfect timing to share it here.
I know @hoovesandfloorpaws is also doing a separate big business/industry research soon, so this introductory thread (for Louis, at least) could be a good starting point while waiting.
Note: I will copy-paste the exact texts from the tweets. The words after the cut below are from the linked thread (source). The cited articles per tweet are hyperlinked ('x'). I might replace/combine some screenshots due to Tumblr's limitations, as well as add the links from where they were originally taken.
Again, thank you so much notastrwbrysng2 (Megs) for creating this.
———
Part 1: The "missing years" not shown in AOTV
Notice how we didn't get years 2016-early 2019 in AOTV? | x
Questions I wonder about.. Louis as first signed to RCA. THEN it was announced sometime later that he switched to Epic. What happened with the label switch here? | x
"It had previously been reported that Tomlinson would end up at RCA, but when Epic Records president Sylvia Rhone heard Tomlinson’s music — in particular the song “Back To You” featuring Bebe Rexha — she campaigned for the project." Okay, okay..
It sounded at this point like Louis was on track, had songs written, had songs recorded.. Did a charity single in 2017, Just Like You cane out as a single ep.. He chatted in Nov 2017 about releasing an album and touring in 2018! Perfect, right?
....except there were crickets the first half of 2018.
January brought Louis roasting Coachellas 2018 lineup.. Towards the end of Jan, an Ask anything video.. | x
February, he teased Habit lyrics.. we have a photo of him recording All Along... And not much else..
March, The "Miss You" singer won the Best Solo Breakout award, beating out Camila Cabello, and his former One Direction bandmates, Harry Styles, Niall Horan and Liam Payne. Oh, so 4 or 5 of them were on the radio simultaneously... | x
April, another Hey, still working on the album…
And May…he left James Grant management.
Synopsis of rest of the year: (X-Factor, a couple awards, signing with WMA). Louis and Dalton Harris stuck it to cowbell and won the season.
2019 rolls around.. Two of Us promo starts and halts in March for a few weeks due to the passing of Fizzy. Louis took some time off (as to be expected) to be with family.
As of this point, Louis had released: Dec 2016: Just Hold On (not backed by an album) 2017: Back To You (no album) 2017: Miss You (no album) 2017: Just Like You (Non-album promo single) 2018: nothing! 2019: Two of Us (unattached at the time)
Yet another label change Feb 2019 now a move to Arista… STILL under S*co/S*ny.
So, 3 years in and NO completed album still? The other unattached but soon to be on the next album Walls were: KMM, We Made It, and DLIBYH with zero promotion, just a director's cut MVs that mirror much of the story Papillon.
Finally, Walls is out in 2020 with it's 4th and final single, and very little promotion.
Flash forward to concerns in 2022/2023 of the same issue: Absolutely NO airplay in his home city and surrounding areas, very little marketing in the US.
(Not much can be found about 2016.)
Coming up next: Exploring WHY Louis has hit roadblocks and how everyone is interconnected
—
Part 2: Louis' Role in 1D thru 2016
I highlighted Louis' slow moving career that started with self released singles, two label pickups (one seeming promising!), a bunch of crickets, and some movement again in 2018. To understand what was going on, we have to go back to when the band was first created. This sounds silly, yes, but it is connections that keep continuing to recur this entire time.
First, let's discuss the US market. They did not have any active boybands and record labels saw an opportunity in Brit boybands.
Leading up to January 2020, plans were put into place and discussed by Sony how to cultivate a boyband. Hottest thing in the UK was TXF. Build a boyband, sign them at their first audition in March 2010. This is a crucial link to the UK side of what will occur later on. | x
Louis & Harry both have contract dates March 26, the same day as their initial auditions. The ones on TV are their 3rd/4th. The band was set up ahead of time and played out on the cameras. During their time in the house, Lou is The Leader by week 2 (:50 in).
To reiterate AOTV, Louis has the least amount of vocals, virtually no solos until Midnight Memories. His songwriting skills were a huge asset (after "pissing off a lot of people," according to Savan Kotecha). Savan later told Rolling Stone that LOUIS led their sound forward.
![Tumblr media](https://64.media.tumblr.com/045a062071ef39b20361c08ae1f1c155/1a31275e13e26394-52/s540x810/d129fa96991eeb1915a3752e94cc0ca845161815.jpg)
Songwriting, then suddenly music management (NOTE DATE!) became Louis's role. SC began to groom Louis, who consistently fought for the boys behind the scenes, to be his "protege" of sorts and steered him away from a future solo career as early as 2014 and was "given*" an imprint
As we all know, as Louis talked about, the label did not move forward due to micromanagement by SC and S*NY. | x
At this juncture, Louis is now done with the band as of December 2015. He does not have anything lined up but is being courted by.. S*ny head Rob Str*nger. As the article in the OP explains, they wanted him for songwriting &/or music mngmt Louis at...an industry party?
Part 3 & 4 here.

Came upon another of my former posts that didn't sell. The 1989 home in Lake Placid, NY has 9bds, 10ba. It's been for sale since 2022 at $31.15M. In 2023, it was reduced to $15M. Taken off the market for 2mos., it's listed again for $15M.
It looks like one of those little German weather houses, doesn't it? Well, you won't believe what's inside.
The interesting living room. Well, we can barely see the fireplace w/all the stuff.
Long formal dining room.
Have you ever seen a kitchen with a gate? I mean, unless they have a dog as tall as a human, that's not a pet gate. There are also bars behind the cooktop. Look at the lights under the cabinets, so they look like they're hovering.
The kitchen is very small for a $15M house.
We're going downstairs, now.
Family room with a huge stone fireplace.
There's a door to this covered patio with a built-in fire pit and swinging sofas.
The home is like a maze of halls.
There's a shower in here, and is that a hot tub or a water feature? Nice ceiling and rock wall.
Double doors and a hall leading to the primary bedroom. This house doesn't look this big from outside.
The bedroom is weird. I just learned that this black thing is a Japanese Luong bed, probably custom made.
Check out the marble en-suite.
Look at this long hall.
It leads to this area with a spiral staircase, a bear, and a fake tree.
The spiral stairs go up to a guest apt.
It has a bigger kitchen than the main house.
The bedroom. Very spacious apt.
Out on the deck. Across the way, see that cabin on huge trunks? That's a guest cabin.
Well. This is certainly is literally in the trees.
Behind the treehouse is another house.
There's another apt. in here with a cool kitchen. Love the two-tone cabinets.
Here's a shooting range downstairs.
Yet another living quarters with a full kitchen.
Makeshift bedroom in the garage.
But, that's not all the living quarters. There's still a vintage Airstream trailer on the property.
They ruined it with the cement coating inside. Well, this property is big- it's 46.64 acres with lots of living quarters.

The @huskacreekcabin in Delhi, NY
From the owners Gemma and Nick: “We found Huska Creek Cabin when it was just a shell and spent 5 months in the summer of 2022 restoring the cabin, being mindful to keep its original charm. Huska Creek Cabin sits on 6.5 acres complete with private meadow and creek. Once owned by a famous New York playwright who used the cabin as a writing retreat (with no bathroom, kitchen or heat - literally a shell) and featured in a design magazine in the 80s, Huska Creek Cabin has a truly unique feel and is a magical experience. We believe that if a place is thoughtfully designed, it doesn’t matter how big it is. We’ve made sure that every inch of the cabin retains the woodland retreat vibe yet is now fully functional including adding a bathroom, heating system, kitchen and all the mod cons that bring it into the 21st century.”

Started the day by reading this article from the NY times, and I'm frankly, disturbed.
Some highlights:
"For decades, farmers across America have been encouraged by the federal government to spread municipal sewage on millions of acres of farmland as fertilizer. It was rich in nutrients, and it helped keep the sludge out of landfills."
Which I knew, and I knew that there were concerns about contaminants from like, the medications people were on. But human waste is part of the nutrient cycle, and it always made sense to me that it should be throughly composted and returned to agricultural lands, and I assumed that people in general were taking the steps necessary to make it safe.
But here's what I didn't know:
"The 1972 Clean Water Act had required industrial plants to start sending their wastewater to treatment plants instead of releasing it into rivers and streams, which was a win for the environment but also produced vast new quantities of sludge that had to go somewhere."
Which, yay, no longer polluting bodies of water, but now that means we're applying industrial waste water to agricultural lands. And have been since 1972. Which leads to this situation, among many others, I'm sure:
"The sludge that allegedly contaminated the Colemans’ farm came from the City of Fort Worth water district, which treats sewage from more than 1.2 million people, city records show. Its facility also accepts effluent from industries including aerospace, defense, oil and gas, and auto manufacturing. Synagro takes the sludge and treats it (though not for PFAS, as it’s not required by law) then distributes it as fertilizer."
So here's what some states are doing:
"In Michigan, among the first states to investigate the chemicals in sludge fertilizer, officials shut down one farm where tests found particularly high concentrations in the soil and in cattle that grazed on the land. This year, the state prohibited the property from ever again being used for agriculture. Michigan hasn’t conducted widespread testing at other farms, partly out of concern for the economic effects on its agriculture industry.
In 2022, Maine banned the use of sewage sludge on agricultural fields. It was the first state to do so and is the only state to systematically test farms for the chemicals. Investigators have found contamination on at least 68 of the more than 100 farms checked so far, with some 1,000 sites still to be tested.
“Investigating PFAS is like opening Pandora’s box,” said Nancy McBrady, deputy commissioner of Maine’s Department of Agriculture."
This is fun:
"The E.P.A. is currently studying the risks posed by PFAS in sludge fertilizer (which the industry calls biosolids) to determine if new rules are necessary.
The agency continues to promote its use on cropland, though elsewhere it has started to take action. In April, it ordered utilities to slash PFAS levels in drinking water to near zero and designated two types of the chemical as hazardous substances that must be cleaned up by polluters. The agency now says there is no safe level of PFAS for humans...
It’s difficult to know how much fertilizer sludge is used nationwide, and E.P.A. data is incomplete. The fertilizer industry says more than 2 million dry tons were used on 4.6 million acres of farmland in 2018. And it estimates that farmers have obtained permits to use sewage sludge on nearly 70 million acres, or about a fifth of all U.S. agricultural land."
There's more, but I wanted to condense it at least a little bit. I am glad we're raising awareness, and I'm glad we're starting to regular the amount in our drinking water, and I hope that we'll find a way to actually deal with PFAS. I am so frustrated that people are exposed in the first place, and in nigh inescapable ways.
Also, to all those people who were like, oh, organic isn't at all healthier for consumers? Guess what the organic standards don't allow to be applied?

One of America’s most corporate-crime-friendly bankruptcy judges forced to recuse himself
![Tumblr media](https://64.media.tumblr.com/0b77c5e0cef54acf423197a79c19c8e5/e1ea17af04458676-34/s540x810/fd3e013e06452113ddbde9814a93e0cd2197d35b.jpg)
Today (Oct 16) I'm in Minneapolis, keynoting the 26th ACM Conference On Computer-Supported Cooperative Work and Social Computing. Thursday (Oct 19), I'm in Charleston, WV to give the 41st annual McCreight Lecture in the Humanities. Friday (Oct 20), I'm at Charleston's Taylor Books from 12h-14h.
"I’ll believe corporations are people when Texas executes one." The now-famous quip from Robert Reich cuts to the bone of corporate personhood. Corporations are people with speech rights. They are heat-shields that absorb liability on behalf of their owners and managers.
But the membrane separating corporations from people is selectively permeable. A corporation is separate from its owners, who are not liable for its deeds – but it can also be "closely held," and so inseparable from those owners that their religious beliefs can excuse their companies from obeying laws they don't like:
https://clsbluesky.law.columbia.edu/2014/10/13/hobby-lobby-and-closely-held-corporations/
Corporations – not their owners – are liable for their misdeeds (that's the "limited liability" in "limited liablity corporation"). But owners of a murderous company can hold their victims' families hostage and secure bankruptcies for their companies that wipe out their owners' culpability – without any requirement for the owners to surrender their billions to the people they killed and maimed:
https://pluralistic.net/2023/08/11/justice-delayed/#justice-redeemed
Corporations are, in other words, a kind of Schroedinger's Cat for impunity: when it helps the ruling class, corporations are inseparable from their owners; when that would hinder the rich and powerful, corporations are wholly distinct entities. They exist in a state of convenient superposition that collapses only when a plutocrat opens the box and decides what is inside it. Heads they win, tails we lose.
Key to corporate impunity is the rigged bankruptcy system. "Debts that can't be paid, won't be paid," so every successful civilization has some system for discharging debt, or it risks collapse:
https://pluralistic.net/2022/10/09/bankruptcy-protects-fake-people-brutalizes-real-ones/
When you or I declare bankruptcy, we have to give up virtually everything and endure years (or a lifetime) of punitive retaliation based on our stained credit records, and even then, our student debts continue to haunt us, as do lawless scumbag debt-collectors:
https://pluralistic.net/2023/08/12/do-not-pay/#fair-debt-collection-practices-act
When a giant corporation declares bankruptcy, by contrast, it emerges shorn of its union pension obligations and liabilities owed to workers and customers it abused or killed, and continues merrily on its way, re-offending at will. Big companies have mastered the Texas Two-Step, whereby a company creates a subsidiary that inherits all its liabilities, but not its assets. The liability-burdened company is declared bankrupt, and the company's sins are shriven at the bang of a judge's gavel:
https://pluralistic.net/2023/02/01/j-and-j-jk/#risible-gambit
Three US judges oversee the majority of large corporate bankruptcies, and they are so reliable in their deference to this scheme that an entire industry of high-priced lawyers exists solely to game the system to ensure that their clients end up before one of these judges. When the Sacklers were seeking to abscond with their billions in opioid blood-money and stiff their victims' families, they set their sights on Judge Robert Drain in the Southern District of New York:
https://pluralistic.net/2021/05/23/a-bankrupt-process/#sacklers
To get in front of Drain, the Sacklers opened an office in White Plains, NY, then waited 192 days to file bankruptcy papers there (it takes six months to establish jurisdiction). Their papers including invisible metadata that identified the case as destined for Judge Drain's court, in a bid to trick the court's Case Management/Electronic Case Files system to assign the case to him.
The case was even pre-captioned "RDD" ("Robert D Drain"), to nudge clerks into getting their case into a friendly forum.
If the Sacklers hadn't opted for Judge Drain, they might have set their sights on the Houston courthouse presided over by Judge David Jones, the second of of the three most corporate-friendly large bankruptcy judges. Judge Jones is a Texas judge – as in "Texas Two-Step" – and he has a long history of allowing corporate murderers and thieves to escape with their fortunes intact and their victims penniless:
https://pluralistic.net/2021/08/07/hr-4193/#shoppers-choice
But David Jones's reign of error is now in limbo. It turns out that he was secretly romantically involved with Elizabeth Freeman, a leading Texas corporate bankruptcy lawyer who argues Texas Two-Step cases in front of her boyfriend, Judge David Jones.
Judge Jones doesn't deny that he and Freeman are romantically involved, but said that he didn't think this fact warranted disclosure – let alone recusal – because they aren't married and "he didn't benefit economically from her legal work." He said that he'd only have to disclose if the two owned communal property, but the deed for their house lists them as co-owners:
https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/24032507-general-warranty-deed
(Jones claims they don't live together – rather, he owns the house and pays the utility bills but lets Freeman live there.)
Even if they didn't own communal property, judges should not hear cases where one of the parties is represented by their long term romantic partner. I mean, that is a weird sentence to have to type, but I stand by it.
The case that led to the revelation and Jones's stepping away from his cases while the Fifth Circuit investigates is a ghastly – but typical – corporate murder trial. Corizon is a prison healthcare provider that killed prisoners with neglect, in the most cruel and awful ways imaginable. Their families sued, so Corizon budded off two new companies: YesCare got all the contracts and other assets, while Tehum Care Services got all the liabilities:
https://ca.finance.yahoo.com/news/prominent-bankruptcy-judge-david-jones-033801325.html
Then, Tehum paid Freeman to tell her boyfriend, Judge Jones, to let it declare bankruptcy, leaving $173m for YesCare and allocating $37m for the victims suing Tehum. Corizon owes more than $1.2b, "including tens of millions of dollars in unpaid invoices and hundreds of malpractice suits filed by prisoners and their families who have alleged negligent care":
https://www.kccllc.net/tehum/document/2390086230522000000000041
Under the deal, if Corizon murdered your family member, you would get $5,000 in compensation. Corizon gets to continue operating, using that $173m to prolong its yearslong murder spree.
The revelation that Jones and Freeman are lovers has derailed this deal. Jones is under investigation and has recused himself from his cases. The US Trustee – who represents creditors in bankruptcy cases – has intervened to block the deal, calling Tehum "a barren estate, one that was stripped of all of its valuable assets as a result of the combination and divisional mergers that occurred prior to the bankruptcy filing."
This is the third high-profile sleazy corporate bankruptcy that had victory snatched from the jaws of defeat this year: there was Johnson and Johnson's attempt to escape from liability from tricking women into powder their vulvas with asbestos (no, really), the Sacklers' attempt to abscond with billions after kicking off the opioid epidemic that's killed 800,000+ Americans and counting, and now this one.
This one might be the most consequential, though – it has the potential to eliminate one third of the major crime-enabling bankruptcy judges serving today.
One down.
Two to go.

a city that waits
Lando Norris x Amelie Dayman
Summary: Amelie revisits New York City and explores the possibility of returning, sharing heartfelt moments with her best friend, Minnie, who is thrilled at the thought of having her back in the city.
Wordcount: 1.4 k
Warnings: none
full masterlist // request over here!
December 7th, 2022 - New York City, NY
Amelie stood in the middle of the living room, the sunlight streaming through the large windows and casting long shadows across the polished hardwood floors. She glanced around the apartment, trying to imagine herself living here. It was bright, open, and airy—everything she’d missed since leaving New York all those years ago. It felt like home, but not quite. Maybe that was just the nostalgia kicking in.
The city outside buzzed with life, the constant hum of cars, chatter, and the occasional siren breaking the otherwise peaceful moment. It was a familiar sound, one that Amelie had missed. She inhaled deeply, savoring the air, the life pulsing through the streets of Manhattan.
Minnie, her best friend since they were both thirteen, was practically bouncing on her heels beside her, her eyes wide with excitement.
—I can’t believe you're back!— Minnie practically shouted, unable to contain her enthusiasm. She was always the more outgoing of the two, the one who wore her heart on her sleeve. Amelie couldn’t help but smile at the sight of Minnie’s infectious energy. It had been so long since they’d spent time together like this, and seeing Minnie so genuinely excited for her made the weight of the last couple of years feel a little lighter.
—I’m not sure if I’m really back yet,— Amelie replied, her voice a little quieter than Minnie’s, but still carrying that same warmth. —I’m just apartment hunting for now. I don’t know how long I’ll stay in New York yet.—
Minnie waved off her uncertainty, already walking around the apartment, inspecting everything with an exaggerated flair. —Okay, but you are here. You’re back in the States, and that’s already a huge step. I missed you so much, you have no idea.—
Amelie laughed, the sound light and carefree. —I missed you too, Minns.—
Minnie paused her tour around the apartment, suddenly turning to face Amelie with a playful glint in her eye.
—Okay, let’s get real here. I know you’re probably still feeling like a stranger to New York, but the city’s been waiting for you. You’re going to love being back. This is your place, you know? It's where you belong.— She shot her a dramatic wink and spun around as if to showcase the entire city.
Amelie grinned but felt a flicker of hesitation. The city had always been her home, but after everything that had happened in the past few years, she wasn’t sure where she stood anymore. She had left in 2019, after Cam’s death, and had spent the past years running from the memories. First, it was Los Angeles, then London for Wicked. It was hard to imagine finding comfort in this place again.
—You know, I don’t know if New York feels like it used to,— Amelie murmured, her voice softer. —Everything’s changed. I’ve changed. I don’t even know if I’m ready to jump back into this world again. It’s like... so much happened, and now, I’m here trying to figure out where I fit in all over again.—
Minnie walked over to Amelie, giving her a gentle nudge.
—You don’t have to rush into anything, okay? Just take it one step at a time. The city will take care of the rest. Besides, you’ve got me here. If you want a distraction, you know I’m always down for one of our infamous adventures.—
Amelie chuckled, appreciating Minnie’s warmth. The girl had always been a grounding force for her, a constant in a world that had often felt chaotic.
—Thanks, Minns,— Amelie said with a smile. —I know I’m lucky to have you. You always know how to make me feel better.—
Minnie gave Amelie a wide grin, her signature playful energy radiating off her like sunshine. —Well, duh. That’s what best friends are for. And now that you’re back, or at least kinda back, you better be ready for me to drag you all over the city. I’ve got plans, Ames. Big plans.—
Amelie laughed, shaking her head. —Of course, you do. You’ve probably been building an itinerary since I told you I was flying in.—
Minnie gasped, clutching her chest dramatically. —How dare you accuse me of something so accurate?— She pulled out her phone and waved it around. —Because, yes, I have a list, and no, I will not apologize for it. You need to catch up on all the New York things you’ve been missing.—
Amelie rolled her eyes affectionately, leaning against the large windowsill and looking out at the cityscape. —I’m almost scared to ask what’s on this list.—
Minnie perched herself on the arm of the nearest couch, her legs swinging as she grinned. —Oh, you know, the usual. Broadway shows, late-night pizza runs, rooftop parties, maybe even a museum or two if we’re feeling cultured. And of course, we must hit up all the new bars and cafes that have opened since you left. You’ll thank me later.—
—You’re ridiculous,— Amelie said, but her smile betrayed her words.
Minnie’s excitement was contagious, and for the first time in a while, Amelie felt a genuine spark of excitement. New York had always been special to her, even with the difficult memories attached. Maybe Minnie was right—maybe it was time to rediscover it.
Minnie hopped off the couch and walked back toward Amelie, her tone shifting slightly, becoming softer, more serious. —By the way... how are you really doing? I mean, with everything. It’s been a whirlwind for you lately, hasn’t it?—
—It has been a lot,— Amelie admitted, her voice quieter now. —I’ve been trying to figure things out, you know? Filming Wicked was amazing, but London... it doesn’t feel like my space anymore. I don’t think it ever really did.—
Minnie nodded, her expression thoughtful. —That makes sense. London was a job, not home. You need a place that feels like yours.— She paused, her eyes narrowing playfully. —Okay, spill. What’s the other thing you’re holding back? I know that look.—
Amelie sighed, leaning back against the windowsill. —I saw Lando.—
Minnie’s eyes widened in surprise, her mouth opening slightly before she snapped it shut again. She tilted her head, studying Amelie carefully. —Wait. You saw Lando? As in, Lando Lando? The guy who was your not-really-but-definitely-more-than-a-friend?—
—Yeah,— Amelie said, her lips pressing into a thin line. —At the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix. It was... awkward.—
Minnie let out a low whistle, crossing her arms. —Okay, you have to give me details. What happened? Did you talk? Did he say something? Or did you just, like, glare at each other from across the paddock?—
Amelie laughed lightly, shaking her head. —No glaring. I didn’t even really talk to him. I avoided him the entire time.—
Minnie raised an eyebrow. —Oof. That bad, huh?—
Amelie shrugged, looking down at her hands. —It’s complicated. We haven’t spoken in over a year, not since we... ended whatever it was we had. And honestly, I didn’t want to open that door again. Seeing him just brought back all this stuff I thought I’d moved on from.—
Minnie reached out and placed a comforting hand on Amelie’s shoulder. —That makes sense, Ames. He was a big part of your life, and things didn’t exactly end on the best note. But you’ve grown so much since then. You don’t owe him anything, not your time, not your energy.—
Amelie nodded, her eyes meeting Minnie’s. —I know. It’s just hard. There was a time when I thought he could be... something more. And then everything fell apart, and now I don’t even know who he is anymore.—
Minnie gave her shoulder a gentle squeeze. —Well, for what it’s worth, I’m proud of you. You’re here, starting fresh, and figuring things out. And if Lando couldn’t see how amazing you are, that’s his loss.—
Amelie smiled, feeling a wave of gratitude for Minnie’s unwavering support. —Thanks, Minns. I really needed to hear that.—
Minnie grinned, her playful energy returning in full force. —Of course! Now, enough about him. Let’s focus on finding you the perfect apartment so we can get back to the important stuff, like taking over this city together.—
Amelie laughed, the tension in her chest easing as Minnie’s words sunk in. She didn’t know what the future held, but with Minnie by her side, she felt ready to face whatever came next. New York was waiting, and maybe, just maybe, it could feel like home again.

1.) What was your first exposure to TMNT?
4.) When did you become a fan of TMNT?
TMNT Ask List Link
1.) What was your first exposure to TMNT?
2012 TMNT! It was my first introduction since one of my older brothers was into it, though at the time I never got into it myself (I was more of a Ninjago kid)
Now that I’m older, I def appreciate 2012 a lot more
4.) When did you become a fan of TMNT?
When I binged Rise the summer after I graduated high school in 2022 lol. While I actually entered the fandom earlier bc of TikTok’s I saw of Donnie and the storyboards, what hooked me was the first episode and how insanely well made it was.
My very first piece of fanart, which I drew by memory on a pizza box omw back to NY lmao (it’s bad)

How to make a Solar Return Synastry: Uyu's Tutorial
「 ✦ Hello! This is not a dumb question at all, as many other people didn't get that either! I'm gonna do a full tutorial so people can check with easy steps! ✦ 」
Step Zero: Introducing our example people
Person A: Mrs. Juno, born on 01/10/1994 at 1:11 am in New York, NY
Person B: Mr. Jupiter, born on 01/04/1997 at 11:11 am in Los Angeles, CA
Mrs. Juno & Mr. Jupiter are a couple, and wishes to check their synastry over the year 2024.
First, they need to see their own Solar Return Charts for the year.
Step One: Checking each person's Solar Return

ִ ࣪𖤐 Go on the 3 bars
ִ ࣪𖤐 Free Horoscopes > Horoscope Drawings & Data > Extended Chart Selection
ִ ࣪𖤐 Enter your personal informations in "Horoscope for:" (Edit) (for this step, write your birth date and birth time, not the year of the solar return!)
ִ ࣪𖤐 In "Chart Type:" click and search for "Solar Return Chart*"
ִ ࣪𖤐 Then, make sure to write 2024 (or the year you want to check, the rest of the date doesn't matter from what I observed, but the year does).
ִ ࣪𖤐 You can go down and add asteroids or other additional objects before checking the SRC.
ִ ࣪𖤐 For a romantic relationship, you can add Juno, Union, Briede, Groom, Boda, Vertex for example.
ִ ࣪𖤐 Once you are done with that, you click on "Show the Chart"
ִ ࣪𖤐 Save your SRC, and then go back to repeat all those steps with the other person.
Step Two: Creating a Solar Return Synastry based on two Solar Return Charts
ִ ࣪𖤐 Let me show you our two Solar Return Charts of Mrs. Juno & Mr. Jupiter for 2024:
ִ ࣪𖤐 Now, we are going to create a synastry with these two charts. We are going to take this date (each written in red), with the timing too!
Mrs Juno: September 30, 2024 at 7:37 am in New York, NY
Mr Jupiter: April 1st, 2024 at 1:17 am in Los Angeles, CA
ִ ࣪𖤐 Now, we are going back on Astro.com > Free Horoscopes > Horoscope Drawings & Data > Extended Chart Selection
ִ ࣪𖤐 We are going to change our personal informations to that:
ִ ࣪𖤐 Now, on the "Chart Type:" we are going to select "Synastry Chart (2)
࣪𖤐 This should look like that:
࣪𖤐 Finally, you can add again some asteroids and some additional objects! And click on "Show the chart". You have your Solar Return Synastry for 2024!
Final Words
You have to save every solar return charts of you and your person of each years to make synastry about other years. Follow the tutorial once again for other dates such as 2022, 2023, or 2025, etc. Just replace the year with the one you desire to see :)
Hope it helped!

The Juggernaut
Bangladesh has finally taken action in response to weeks of protests, but citizens still await justice.
At least 139 people have died since protests broke out on July 1. Last month, Bangladesh’s courts brought back controversial government job quotas, which the country had abolished in 2018. These quotas reserved 30% of public sector jobs for relatives of 1971 Bangladesh Liberation War veterans. At the same time, youth unemployment in Bangladesh tripled from 5.6% in 1991 to 15.7% in 2023.
On Sunday, Bangladesh’s Supreme Court reduced quotas from 56% to 7% of government jobs. Quotas for kin of 1971 War veterans went from 30% to 5% and for ethnic minorities went from 5% to 1%. The court abolished quotas for women and those from certain districts but kept the 1% for those with disabilities.
Quotas for government jobs are not uncommon in South Asia. In 2022, India increased reservations to 59.5% in central institutions.
Bangladesh deployed police and paramilitary forces as well as the antiterrorism Rapid Action Battalion, and slowed internet services and shut educational institutions. Hundreds have suffered injuries. Over the weekend, Bangladesh declared a curfew and police granted military officers orders to “shoot on site.”
“I am hoping normalcy will return after today’s ruling and people with ulterior motives will stop instigating people,” Abu Mohammad Amin Uddin, Bangladesh’s Attorney General, told Reuters. When issuing the verdict, the Supreme Court urged students to resume classes. “As the demands of students are met, they should stop the protests,” Uddin told the NY Times.
But student organizers say the fight isn’t over. “Now we want justice for the lives lost of our brothers. The prime minister has to apologize and those who are guilty have to be tried,” Mahfuzul Hasan, a protest coordinator, told The Guardian.

You asked for my void success story? And my void journey? well I am sharing it bestie!!
But again I won't share any personal stuff some people here are obsessive pls lmao
I typed it when I was on the discord server because someone who is in my experiment asked me so I answered and I asked myself like why not sharing it here after all that time and all these things I am doing (coaching - the experiment - more....) and I am so excited to share the results of my experiment after exactly 6 days and actually 2 people joined the experiment but they were late!
So.....
• let's begin with my void journey!
Okay basically I am sure no one actually knows this except for like 3 people on Tumblr and like 20 people in my experiment (cuz they asked me) my life before entering was actually great I already had everything I wanted my mom and dad are literally my role models and my self-concept was perfect and I am not saying it as an affirmation it's just me and I was always finding something from time to time related to the void state and I worked more on my self-concept using my tape I made it in early - mid 2022 (actually the same tape I sell now) then I started collecting information about the void from literally everywhere back in late 2022 then I started applying in early 2023 I entered in January but didn't really plan to manifest anything because I had the same manifesting abilities in my daily life then I thought about it more than once so I made a list full of everything I can think of at that time and I entered in early 2023 again
• How I entered?
It was just normal i was in the USA specifically NY at that time I was listening to my self-concept tape it was almost 10pm and I felt like I will actually enter today and manifest everything I wasn't even planning to do it but I knew I will experience it's just a feeling I felt at that time and I was feeling a lot of love at that time too so I meditated I didn't affirm I didn't do anything it was fully my subconscious mind but it wasn't that deep to me it was normal EVEN THO IT WAS NORMAL all these days when I entered affirmed the affirmation that's connected to my void list then got out and found everything that was on my void list in my apartment IT WAS SO SURPRISING TO ME but I didn't get overwhelmed nor confused! It was a great surprise!
Also the time it was like 2am when I got out of my void state as I remember and I was sitting at the same place for almost 15 mins just realizing what happened with me and why my head feels like this it was a weird feeling I still can't find a name to it or a word that explains it! i thought about the word "dizzy" BUT it's not just dizzy and it's not really dizzy - it's just a different feeling!
• What was my void state like?
I will say everything that's on my mind
The first time I entered it was pitch black
Then I typed on my void list that it's full of stars it's like outer space because I chose it to be like that (you can choose how your void state looks like too)
It looked exactly like this and everytime I wake up there since that day because I didn't change it! 🫶🏻
Entering was so intense not emotionally but physically even tho I didn't feel my body 😭 it was as if my soul is getting out of my body it was so unexplainable and special to me my body was tired after it and I was feeling too much in my head after getting out and back to my physical body I don't have words for what I experienced the first time and the second time 😭 but now I have no symptoms because it was so annoying so I manifested it away when I woke up in my void state the second day (this was on my void list tho like waking up in my void state everyday and being in my void state everytime I take a nap) - that feeling in my head was so bad like as if I was so high and can't even focus for 15 mins non-stop! That's why I manifested not experiencing any symptoms at all.
• What did you manifest?
I manifested a lot of things I wanted but tbh having these things wasn't that far from me like I already could do it without entering my void state at all and I won't be specific about what I manifested cause they are a bit personal but they were friendships/relationships + businesses + apartments/homes + money/more investments..... and way more
Also I already had many investments before I entered my void state hope this clears everything too
cause many people were asking me about how do I have tips for entering without sharing my story the tips are here tho they are very helpful - it was because I don't like these people who come to your DMs and ask you to help them once and twice and 3 times with their trauma dump message or ask pls like no it was just too much for me when I posted once that I entered then deleted it but here we are again if it happens just don't blame me I will just block people.....
• About the experiment's results
I am not sure if I should post it day by day?
So I am gonna make a poll and see what y'all think!
Also.....
• POWERFUL AFFIRMATION TAPES
(self-concept - void state - shifting - subconscious mind....more) (personalized and unpersonalized) • (discounts for students and specific clients depending on their problems and their situations i am dealing with) - message me
• FOR COACHING
(self-concept - void state - shifting....more) • (discounts for students and specific clients depending on their problems and their situations i am dealing with) - message me
And now that's it! 💋💋
Have a good day/night cuties🫶🏻!
@voidsuccessarchive
@voidarchivefiles
@voidsuccess
@voidbaby111
That's the post! 💋
You can send me a message too if you wanna suggest any idea for a post or something specific I will give you credits if you want credits + If you have any questions related to my void journey or self-concept even coaching you can ask me babes 💋🫶🏻
I would really be thankful because gurl I am so busy with (my life, coaching, the experiment and more...) rn I can't even keep up with posting here so I scheduled this post lmao thanks to Tumblr for adding this feature for real!
