#The Rejects™

[2271me]

fuck it I've had enough. I had an intro to cultural anthropology class a semester ago, but looking at recent bullshit in Florida, I have a few things to say:

I'm sick of people treating culture like it's some chunk of earth.

It's neither something you can wage war on nor fight for. It is not a finite amount of substances that is adulterated with new introductions. It isn't something precious in the same way a piece of jewelry or what have you; not preserved safe by being put in a locked box. Cultures are not the current models of bludgeon that groups of people impose upon others. One's culture, in total, is not an "immovable cornerstone" of anything made by humans. It is not in any way like stone.

It did not exist before there were people to possess it. A culture is something we've created amongst each other. In short, it is a conversation. one of beliefs, institutions, and knowledge; spoken by the beliefs and actions of it's participants. It is a conversation that you have a voice in too.

If you forget anything I say before or since, please do not forget that.

new ship dynamic:

two traumatized people pleasers who keep trying to one-up one another like "no lets do what YOU want". this repeats about 65,816 times.

until- through Wacky Hijinx (and terrible misfortune)- they both figure out how to communicate and Just Begin to start learning how to learn where boundaries even are and learning how to set them.

Watching videos essays abt political stuff is fun except for the fact that it's abt real life and it's not fun

keep in mind that some of the palettes are duplicates or very close to palettes that are already hosted on lospec, and were rejected for that reason. some other pallettes like spaff-8 are literally already hosted on lospec, which makes them not rejected

like, i literally only renamed my antique fish palette to poisson 23 and the palette with the old name is still up on the website as "rejected" despite the fact that i asked a mod to remove it ages ago and that there's 0 other changes (i have other palettes on rejected palettes and i have 0 problem with them)

so before some of yall go out and proclaim the website as some kind of treasure trove of unlimited human potential and rejecting the authoritarian art overlords or whatever. take a step back and realize that both lospec and rejected palettes have flaws.

@meowstic-seer-of-the-future:

Are you a pixel artist looking for a unique challenge? This site collects palettes that were submitted to Lospec and received negative reactions from their members. The rejections range from being perceived as useless for art (pixelart), disorganized, or some other reason. Well, there’s a whole gallery of art made with these palettes, and even a Bounty Hunter applet that picks a random palette nobody has used before, hopefully inspiring you.

I ran out of tags I should have just written my opinions here so I feel bad I can't tag the show cause I don't want to get rid of my notes but LOOK!!!!!!

I had an idea for a one-off Rise episode plot and just wanted to quickly sketch up some visuals for it.

The plot goes as follows: Donnie attempts to invent a cloning machine and, due to some kind of science-y mishap, ends up cloning himself...a lot. But there's a catch to this - the clones aren't exact copies of Donnie, they each possess just ONE of the various facets of his personality (i.e. brainy, broody, sarcastic, passionate, dramatic, mischievous, etc.) and a small portion of his mystic powers. Don tries his darnedest to keep the whole situation under wraps while he searches for a way to fix it, but some of the more rambunctious Donnies quickly escape and begin stirring up trouble in the Lair, so it doesn't stay a secret for very long. To make matters worse - the real Donnie starts to slowly disappear (something having to do with his existence being divided among the Donnies or blahblahblah fake science explanation). So, while he and the scientist Donnies continue to look for a way to reverse the cloning effect, his brothers and Co. set to work gathering up all the other Donnies so they can put them back where they belong and keep Donnie Prime™ from vanishing.

Hilarity, wholesomeness (and some mild angst) ensues.

(Note: I meant to include April in that second-to-last image, but ran out of room. Just know that she, Splinter, and probably Casey Jr. are all there, as well.)
