#The Abysmal Communication

I think my most controversial cartoon take is that it’s not Lily Orchard’s fault that people turned on Steven Universe and I think the fandom just insists that happened because they don’t want to accept that people turned on the show years before it ended.
Like I literally remember Bismuth being the first episode that completely divided fans, and its lack of acknowledgement (among other issues such as a drop in writing and animation quality) pushing fans from the show. And that was TWO YEARS before LO’s video dropped
Lily Orchard’s video was only effective because it came out during the peak of the show’s hatedom/controversy. Season 5 was when I dropped off the show but I literally remember new episodes becoming heated debates every time they dropped and fans were so actively hostile towards criticism they genuinely thought making any sort of constructive critique was considered laughable or downright homophobic (had no issue complaining about random anime though, wonder why).
Really makes me laugh that there were dungeon meshi fans who were convinced that Lily Orchard’s negative review was going to make people turn on the show. Her LOK and Steven Universe videos were popular because they were already very controversial shows with a divisive fanbase. She also made a lot of videos heavily criticizing MLP, yet I don’t see people insisting that MLP is a terrible show undeserving of praise. It’s almost as if Lily Orchard is a deeply controversial figure in cartoon spaces and it makes no sense for one deeply unlikable person to influence the opinions of millions of people.
It’s okay to accept that people just didn’t like something, instead of looking for someone to blame.
#txt#also I’ll be honest if the Hazbin/helluva community wasn’t abysmal#people would acknowledge that SU fans have the exact same issue#but it’s not 2015 anymore so the worst qualities of that community have simply been transferred to other fandoms

originally wrote a lengthy piece here to express my frustrations with the fact that its election day and what that obviously entails but im finding im running out of creative ways to accurately describe my complete and utter rage at the extent of liberal condescencion ive seen today
#''i hope you get what you deserve'' youd be surprised to learn that the ppl with possibly the least amount of agency or say in this entire#election have already gotten the most devestatingly tragic undeserved punishment they could have ever gotten as a direct result#of biden harris admin policies You know that right? that the utmost least deserving of us#have already died thousands of times over for this.#and im expected to just wholeheartedly support and devote myself to them? just because theyre not trump?#even when one of their main campaign points is that they'll do the same exact thing trump will do But Better?#Christ.#the dnc will not save you. anything that comes from the american empire fundamentally cannot and will not ''save'' anyone#& finger pointing & blaming anyone consciousable enough to not let their vote be held hostage by a cynical ''lesser of two evils'' argument#is not helping Anyone it just makes Me Specifically want to Kill everyone in the room And then myself#even if harris got de la cruz's and stein's votes she still wouldn't have won thats how badly she fumbled this election#and that is no ones fault other than her own for an utterly abysmal excuse of an election campaign#why are you holding the most vulnerable people in your community accountable for something completely out of their control?#why are you wishing death upon millions of people and more who will never ever in any world be deserving of it?

I saved a work project in jpg to show the client. It's in CMYK, I don't want to bother convenrting it in RGB back again (thank you CSP for not working in print quality) just for that.
On Photoshop the colours are nice, I check the flat image on my pc before sending, everything looks all right.
Opening the image on Whatsapp:
#personal crap#I HATE WHATSAPP WITH THE STRENGHT OF A THOUSAND SUNS#also for this reason#alas this client communicates through it or via mail but he asked me to stick to whatsapp since the project is urgent#also if you're using CSP and you want to print: ask a friend who has photoshop to check on your files#CSP is a better alternative to PS if you draw and paint and stick only to digital#It doesn't have the NECESSARY function you need for printing tho#(and its text tool is abysmal)

I had totally forgotten about the Bruce Wayne -- Ibn al Xu'ffasch -- Mar'i Grayson family circle in Kingdom Come.
#they all sit together at the MLF meetings and it's kind of sweet#Bruce says afterwards that Ibn al Xu'ffasch is still knee-deep in the League of Assassins mindset but they're also quite subtly friendly#in the background scenes#KC Batman actually feels like one of the few big-power future interpretations we see that lets Bruce's moral compass be correct#I'm not super familiar with Elsewords so I'm sure there are others#but the Batman-WILL-be-lost-in-the-tragedy and Batman-is-an-abysmal-communicator-to-the-point-of-child-neglect both feel like#very modern interpretations#anyway with the upcoming KC WF issues I would love for Dick and Bruce to be confronted with the fact that their kids are together#it's just strange enough for comics#world's finest#superman#batman#robin#dick grayson#damian wayne#mar'i grayson#kingdom come#robin i#robin v

the doctor really spent a series being an asshat about martha's feelings but look how he reacted to her getting over him and getting engaged:
beginning to think him picking a fight over martha being a 'soldier' was compensating for something else. because he knows she's not and he's the one who got her working for unit in the first place. say it with your chest doctor.
#doctor who#martha jones#chile#tenmartha#the sontaran stratagem#donna noble#mmhmmm#he can't say it with his chest his communication skills are abysmal

the issue with seeking publication for my manuscripts is in order to do that you have to be willing to really strongly advocate for yourself and why it would be better for your manuscript to be published than any other, and, as a white guy whose manuscripts both draw very strongly from chinese literature and history, i’m not sure i can like. ethically do that lol
#i’ve attended plenty of seminars that are poc promising white women they are still allowed to write non-white characters#but i also know how systemic racism works#like my whiteness makes me HUGELY preferable over actual members of the culture and community that i owe a lot to in my works#and that’s unfair and i don’t want to contribute to it#but. i’d also like to be published. i’ve worked very hard on these#luckily i’m not in a place to start querying yet and my abysmal social media preference is a big turn off to publishers anyway#so that’s a problem for later me to deal with#ryddles

thinking about the first time we went for a walk together 💜 she led me into the woods by her house then stopped to spit in my mouth and make out (hot), slipped her hand into my underwear to touch me (hottt) and fingered me until my legs were trembling (hothothothot holy fuck) only stopping once when someone walked too close
#she spoils me so much#only could have been made better if we'd found somewhere for her to fuck me too#need her abysmally#puppy sub#puppy pl@y#bd/sm pet#bd/sm puppy#puppy pl4y#bd/sm community#bd/sm kink#bd/sm blog#bd/sm brat#bd/sm breeding#exhibitionism kink

Oh lord, I did not realize what a messy bitch John Ross was. This book is illuminating. The admiralty called him and JCR in to question them separately about the 1818 expedition to explore Baffin's Bay. There were a lot of inconsistencies in regards to whether they satisfied the purpose of the voyage or if they had, as what was becoming the more popular opinion, left way too soon without actually doing anything. JCR went first, answered their questions truthfully (and not at all casting John Ross in a bad light!) and the next day, Ross went up. Sigh.
He was apparently "in such a state" he immediately starts in, saying stuff like my nephew is my greatest enemy and is conspiring to DESTROY me and he may be family but he is not my friend. No warm up, right out the gate. Unprovoked. Well, he came back the next day after he had calmed down and retracted all his statements. Said he and his nephew were cool actually. Just, the endless drama with this one.
#and surprisingly his characterization in The Terror kind of feels right#when blanky implied that he lied in his memoirs ...#that would appear to be a trend of his#and the general Gremlin energy he had in the franklin encounter#it fits#im still in 1819 but hes shaping up to be one of those captains#who maybe believes too much in the inherent authority the 'chain of command' affords him#so far as not to ask lower officers their opnions#for fear of showing any sort of weakness#which resulted in abysmal communication aboard the ships#polar pioneers#i NEED to go to bed#i got caught up reading all this petty british gossip

the same people who can’t handle six at her worst would’ve never been able to handle new at her best. i have no doubt in my mind she was intended to be a punk (regardless of the devs’ understanding of punk culture at the time) and that’s another reason why I’m kinda glad this thing never got picked up by the suits
#steampunk in its truest form >>> aesthetics and nothing else#while I’m somewhat frustrated at myself for contributing to this thing at an abysmal pace#I definitely think this diy/community route is the way to do it#plus not only does it mirror the characters themselves but *sigh* it’s what momo would want#city of metronome#kramblings

yall are being very kind with your suggestions and it's making me Mad about the one time i tried OT again, because the therapist said i absolutely should NOT get the blackout curtains, or wear the sunglasses, because it would "lower my tolerance." (....which i dont have, or i wouldnt be seeking treatment thanks)
it's just wild to say "i struggle with this thing" and have a bunch of people just say "ok do a different thing then." the difference between treatment designed to Make You Normal and treatment designed to actually improve quality of life.
#this isnt anti-doctors in general to be clear#i have a wonderful therapist for cbt and trauma and stuff#ive just had abysmal experiences with everyone who's supposed to be an expert in autism and spd and adhd#theres SO MUCH ableism within the medical community

Not to keep reiterating the same point for days on end but actually like talk to your friends about your feelings even just once I swear the skies clear love becomes real it's beautiful out here
#look anika's talking!#like even the small differences like saying ''bye i love you!!'' rather than just ''bye see you tomorrow!!'' is like hooooly shit#and if you've always said ily to your friends then disregard this but if you have abysmal emotional maturity and communication skills-#like me and my irls do- then please take this to heart 🙏🙏

Ep. 19 - This Is The Beginning Of Familiar Ends
Hello my beloved fellow souls,
welcome back to Danbi’s Room, your weekly dose of safe space. Go grab a cup of something warm and get yourself cosy.
I hope you had a nice week where you received, you know, some kind of revelation. Or where you managed to trust your guts a bit more. That’s really really really important.
Very often we're told to get out of our comfort zone, which is not a bad thing: it is, in fact, very good advice. It’s crucial to explore, to learn new things, to let our soul understand that mistakes are part of the process and that “not being good” at something is the exact reason why we start learning it. Not that “being good at” whatever should necessarily be the goal. I’m an overachiever myself, I crave knowledge more than anything else, sometimes even more than love. Ambition eats me alive every day and more often than not my life feels like a constant race against time to learn everything I can as soon as possible. But there are indeed a few things to break down here. First and most simple: we have all of our life to learn and discover and it’s never pointless. Learning should be pure joy, learning for learning’s sake. Socrates learnt a new tune with his flute, in his prison cell, just a few days before his execution. Why? Well, why not? We’re here to be happy not to be machines. Secondly, it still takes effort and sacrifice to learn: it can be tiring, we might feel like idiots and we might think about giving up. Actually, now and then, giving up could be the right choice to make. Sometimes something’s not for us, or it might be better to pursue it in the future. But there are definitely times where we just need to push a bit more. Motivation alone is not always enough. Be hungry, fight. Sink your claws in the flesh of your dreams, no matter what. Even Odin the Allfather sacrificed his own eye to eat the fish that granted him full knowledge. Last but not least, the former two statements don’t mean there’s a set definition of what all of this means. There’s no hierarchy in knowledge, nor in learning. What does it mean “to be good at”? We’re so used to capitalise on everything we forget that many things are just human things to do. Like eating, drinking water and sleeping. So are dancing, singing, making art and many other things. They’re beautiful, raw and human. Like breathing. Why do we make our life a synthetic product? That itself is not very human and it’s not very nice either. Our curiosity got us to do so many wonderful stuff, why do we let it decay into suffering? Why do we strangle ourselves until suffocation? We can’t breathe anymore, our vision’s blurry, thick fog is hunting our brain yet we’ve become so comfortably numb we don’t notice anymore. We forget we have our own hands pressing furiously on our own throat. Even in the rare moments of clear-headedness we don’t seem to be able to move them. We’ve sunken so abysmally deep into total discomfort that we’re not even gasping for surface, air and sun anymore. What is actually hard now is not getting out of the comfort zone, but rather to be able to go back to it. Letting ourselves be okay, go back home, be ourselves, feel good in our own skin. We don’t know that. We don’t even know where to look for it. Where’s home? Where’s the sky? It’s not even about finding answers anymore, it’s about creating them. Having no path makes you lost and astray but it also means you can go everywhere you want. You can let your instinct guide you home without useless noise. When discomfort is so familiar it might be a very good idea to begin to end it.
Listen and walk.
I’ll be right here.
It’s all good now.
Today’s song recommendation is Abysmal by Hannah Bahng, though I advise you to listen to the full EP from the beginning to the end. The abyss, my loves, has always much to say.
I hope you enjoyed this episode and that you have a beautiful week ahead of you!
I’ll see you in the next one, big hug!
With love, yours,
Danbi
