Hey since the site I originally asked this on hit the shitter, if you know someone who can replicate the style of Neon Genesis Evangelon, I'm looking for an artist who'd be willing to work with me. Paid gig and willing to negotiate, lax turnaround (likely needed in August), no AI, please show me some of your work if you're interested!

EDIT: POSITION CLOSED! Thanks to those who reached out!

Sam decides one day that she wants to start a band. Then, she decides to rope Tucker, Danny, and Valerie into it. It started off just as a way to spend time together, but then they started booking gigs. They’re still not any big name, but they got hired to play at a high-end nightclub called “Iceberg Lounge.” Sam has a good feeling about this.

She can't help herself from performing even after the concert is over

If you're like me and not really on Tw!tter, you might not have seen the news that 1) G5 is probably coming to a close due to the fact that Hasbro cancelled the remaining episodes of Tell Your Tale (apparently they had a planned 100 episodes and we only got 25???), and 2) that people actually publicly booed Misty's voice actor at a Brny convention, to the point where she declined to appear for closing ceremonies.

So like, if you thought that Bruhnies couldn't continue to get worse since their show ended... eugh.

I also can't help but wonder if there's any correlation between the distinctly multicultural voice cast for G5, the G4 fandom dislike/certain vocal pockets of hate for it, and the noted issue with white supremac!sts in said G4 fandom? Like, I'm not seeing anyone connect the dots yet, or all we just keeping quiet on that because it's like a 2+2=4 thing?

The Job Board system, which in terms of overseeing tends to fall somewhere between the Explorer's Association and the mail service, is a system that allows bugs across Bugaria to send off jobs to any bug who might take them. It is known primarily for its incredible efficiency at copying and posting jobs throughout Bugaria, as well as its ability to take down jobs that have been completed within a day of their fulfillment.

Just about any bug can post a mission through this system, with some light checks to make sure it's legitimate, and just about anyone can take a mission - with some caveats. The more difficult a mission is marked as, the more likely you are to need to show some proof of ability- occasionally very eclectic proof of ability. While an Explorer's Permit can allow you to shortcut almost all low-end requirements, anyone who isn't registered in the system will have to repeatedly prove aptitude for low-end jobs, which can get exceptionally annoying very fast, particularly as the Job Board and publicly accessible jobs tend to be almost exclusively to the low end of things.

Technically an extension of the Job Board system, the Bounty Board handles a lot of relatively high-paying jobs, often put up using communally-raised funds rather than a single person. While the Job Board gathers jobs of comparatively low importance, and allows them to be taken by anyone, the Bounty Board is specifically for jobs that are anticipated to be difficult enough to need a whole crew of bugs.

The requirements to run an outpost of a bounty board are significantly more rigorous than the standard job board, as applicants going after these jobs are much more rigorously vetted - an Explorer's Permit will often serve as a way to help you shortcut the line, putting all of your prior accomplishments in easy reach and allowing the certified offices that run these jobs to make an easy background check on you.

Alternatively, of course, some less legitimate venues can piggyback off the certification of an actual office, pretending to be another location and allowing you to shortcut the entire certification process to obtain the reward without having to prove your capability to do a job. Technically speaking, jobs taken in Doppel's tavern will show up as being taken from the bounty board office run by Utter - though this establishment doesn't technically have a physical location.

Unlike with a typical bounty board mission, you also get paid up front upon providing a specified part of the slain monster, rather than having to wait for the kingdom you're working in to certify the danger is gone before wiring you your reward. Also unlike with a typical bounty board mission, the house will take a certain cut of your reward. These venues may also take "unofficial" bounties - organized by parties who can't or won't go through the official venues to get a problem handled, or simply by people who are hunting for specific parts of a monster. You won't be tested as thoroughly before taking the job- but your client won't be, either.

im only now catching up with the xmas ep and it really blows my mind how no one in the writers room thought of coming up with a single sentence to allude to the fact aaron is spending christmas at the home he built with robert and liv while attending said christmas with robert's half-brother who he is currently dating. like even ross could have said something rude and provoking but no. the show is playing dead and the aaron dingle we knew is also fucking buried. they even gave ruby his award-winning storyline. fuck me.

How can a Billy Joel themed history podcast do an entire episode on Chubby Checker including significant discussion of Chubby Checker's career and why Billy Joel included him in We Didn't Start the Fire and not mention that in the later sixties Chubby Checker needed money badly enough to do a commercial for a New York pretzel company advertising their new pretzel twists and was accompanied on Hammond organ by none other than a teenage William Joell?

minkowski doing her undergrad as a double major in music composition and aerospace engineering is literally my most hyperspecific headcanon but im genuienly just factually canonically right. she was applying for MASTERS PROGRAMS to compose musicals. implying she has an undergraduate degree in a relevant field, which i guess could also be english or theater if we're just talking about libretto. but if we're saying music it implies also that she has a high enough level of skill on whatever she plays to get through a conservatory or equivalent music program. im tempted to say piano because she says her favorite composer is chopin and chopin is such a pianist favorite composer to have but that might just be because she's polish so im flexible. tbh i could even see her as a vocalist on account of how much she likes theater. in my mind she applied for grad school and didn't get accepted anywhere and to cope with having her dreams crushed she went with her fallback which was joining the air force and then her canon dreamcrushing started.

i also like this headcanon so much because it makes the entire plot of the show even more of a total farce like can you IMAGINE if the aliens had had someone who had taken minimum 4 semesters of music history on the phone from the beginning. it could have been just that easy. but no. they got doug fucking eiffel! truly truly hysterical

Being straightforward with my mom to ask for money to go out with my friend next week isn't working out. I can't tell if I'm just not being straightforward enough or if she's not offering to help because she doesn't want to.

So, uh, I think it's vastly unfair that she constantly gets to go out and spend her money at restaurants multiple times a week, but I'm constantly stuck in the house. Anyone mind helping out? It's for next Wednesday, so I guess I have some time to try and get donations.

For anyone who's new here, I have multiple debilitating disabilities that make it so I can't work, and I am in an abusive home situation. I'm not really given monetary help with food, and personal needs.
