I love the hunger games movies but they really took so much of katniss’ personality out. She is so fucking funny.

To Durge Bhaal is like several things at once: their parent, their god, and also technically their own self/original self. I feel like there's a couple of different ways of exploring that and think it's interesting to think about.
Like does your Durge view this relationship purely as a parent-child one with an atypical form of birth/conception, where the worship is just tacked on? Or is 'Father' a simplification of their connection? Does faith take prescedence, and you are a servant of Death, your sole reason for existence, first and foremost? Or do they actually view themself as the deity on some level, possibly owed the same reverence? Is it no different from a mage cutting off their finger to create a copy of themselves with magic*? How much of a division is there between deity and spawn? Are they anything more than a phantom limb? Which relationship (parent-child, god-worshipper, original-fragment/clone) is prioritised, if you put them in a hierarchy?
*...wait, did Bhaal cast some kind of modified version of the spell clone to make Durge?

Takao and Ralf for the 'Insane expression meme'
Takao doesn't know what his shirt says. Honest.
Anyways, I was almost lazy with this. Tried to do the colouring one way, almost did no shading. Glad I pushed myself through this because I love their faces with colour and shading.

The whole "Claudia is now his sister"/Louis' sibling comparisons are never gonna sit right with me because that's never going to erase the fact that Claudia exists as a vampire partly because of him. Their relationship will never have this clearly defined role of siblings in the same manner Louis had with Grace or Paul, even if he was their older brother and was implicitly given the role of providing for them as the successor and manager of his family's estate. Because Louis was never responsible in part for their creation, the reason why they existed the way that they do in terms of behavior and life itself.
It also makes his betrayal of her all the more heartbreaking in ways that him and Grace drifting apart never will. He was her father, and didn't provide emotional support for her. She had to turn the tables and try to assume the role of being on an equal level because of this failure but this doesn't make him not choosing her any less painful than it did the first time. Even as they shift roles, take or give emotional responsibility one has towards the other, the fact that Claudia exists the way she does because of him and Lestat will always be there.
#interview with the vampire#claudia#louis de pointe du lac#it's why in a way Lestat's whole 'I am your maker' rant is relevant#not in terms of him trying to keep his veil of control over her#but in terms of how no matter how she tries to shift positions; switch roles#put on the costume of 'sister/companion/mother/knight'#she will always be on a lesser position than him or even Louis#because THEY are her parents#even on a physical level she's technically weaker because she's in the body of a teenager#her given role of daughter will never be shed; especially when both of them took to physically abusing her#and tbh I personally don't like acting as if Claudia having to take on the role of Louis' protector/therapist/sister#is a positive thing in any way#it's basically his own child being forced by circumstances to be the adult#and it's such a fucked up dynamic to me#i'm not saying Louis is responsible for that because he had his own issues and then there's Lestat who acerbates the whole situation#but consider it from Claudia's angle: she keeps Lestat away from Louis for SIX years#then Louis takes him back; and even tells her to get used to it and to try to be more open with her own abuser#all the while Claudia gives him nothing but understanding and time; pleads with him to run away together#i can't even start on how his betrayal of her after the attempted murder is not only the final nail of the coffin#but the only result she gets after emotionally supporting him throughout this entire situation#anyway no offense to anyone that makes Claudia/Grace/Paul edits in relation to Louis#it's just that even without the ep7 reveal the whole thing feels sour to me in episode 6#because that is very much not his sister/brother protecting him; that's his daughter#Claudia should not have to do this shit on her own; she should not have to assume another role just to be considered seriously#in any way by either Louis or Lestat

Ok bright side of having to stay in the hotel: I really like their body wash so I’m gonna buy some to replace the one I have been using that just changed it’s formula (again) so that I don’t like it anymore
I have also realized how horrible this hotel is for people who are menstruating so I’m gonna write and email the company about it with my extra time today.

Gif Colouring Process | Ramking Set
There are various steps needed to adjust the colours of a gif. Good colouring can match tones of different shots, make colours look more true to life or cohesive, adjust so lighting is kinder to skintones and make scenes generally prettier to look at.
Because gifs allow for fewer colours than videos, it also involves prioritising which colours are needed in a scene and adjusting accordingly.
It can also be used for effects: subtle ones (like in like in gif 4: fading colours to highlight the focal characters in a photograph), or much more dramatic or stylised effects.
This is a tiny tiny glimpse of what gifmakers do when we refer to "colouring". 🖤
#flashing gifs cw#flashing gif cw#gifmaking#gif making#gif colouring#bee.gif#obviously I thought it would be interesting but I also wanted to highlight just how much work goes into each gif#also as a Not White gifmaker that is (mostly) giffing Not White people it's really important to me that I get the skintones right#so that's a huge factor in what makes a good gif to me#and each layer isnt just 'hit the curves button' or 'hit the selective colour button'#each layer is adjusted to that one gif specifically#unless it's from exactly the same scene and exactly the same angle you cant really copy colouring across from one to the other#you're relying on a person and a gif maker as a kind of visual artist to learn what's needed and what actually looks good#and I hate hate hate to turn this negative but it's why it's so hearbreaking when gifs are stolen or reposted without permission#and to counterpoint why its so very lovely when people reblog gifs to share them - or ask the artists to share!#There are some really great tutorials out there on how to make gifs#also gifmaking is really a easy to get into and it takes such a short amount of time to train your eye and create really lovely results#I mean it does make you go hRRRRR I COULD FIX THIS when a show or film lights something badly and doesnt fix it in post lmao#if you're a marvel gifmaker you're stronger than god btw#I justify fixing the shitty lighting in these scenes because the budget of my engineer was about 43p and a button#multimillion dollar blockbusters with teams of professional colourists should not look like that.#i digress#do not talk to me about the third gif I dont want to fucking know I dont care I never want to look at it ever again dghjksghjkrs#my worstie my behated#I was fighting for my life#I had to use red text on it as well because it dropped all the magentas out of the colour slots and it their lips went grey#like also because each gif is shown thorugh lots of iterations of colouring there are fewer colour slots overall#so the change is even MORE dramatic than what's shown here#but I made these mostly as an illustration of how much thought went into the set :)#hopefully the vibe still comes across anyway lol

obsessed w the fact that im desperately trying to research (for funsies, not work) this one civil case from 1771 where John Adams was the defense for this guy, and the only primary source on it ive ever found is from Adams's notes from the trial
and ive been stuck thinking about this for over two years now bc i want to know more about the guy who was suing for damages but he continues to elude me, but I keep talking about the case w people bc everything about it is so chaotic
and i just realized the other day "oh, Adams's diaries are digitized and searchable, maybe he has more details in there, surely this was Notable"
and the only day of the trial he even mentions it, hes just like. the court sat today. and lists what he had for dinner and details a discussion of chickens he had w his in-laws.
