#YOU’RE ALIVE

[novelconcepts]

I Saw the TV Glow is such a uniquely, devastatingly queer story. Two queer kids trapped in suburbia. Both of them sensing something isn’t quite right with their lives. Both of them knowing that wrongness could kill them. One of them getting out, trying on new names, new places, new ways of being. Trying to claw her way to fully understanding herself, trying to grasp the true reality of her existence. Succeeding. Going back to help the other, to try so desperately to rescue an old friend, to show the path forward. Being called crazy. Because, to someone who hasn’t gotten out, even trying seems crazy. Feels crazy. Looks, on the surface, like dying.

And to have that other queer kid be so terrified of the internal revolution that is accepting himself that he inadvertently stays buried. Stays in a situation that will suffocate him. Choke the life out of him. Choke the joy out of him. Have him so terrified of possibly being crazy that he, instead, lives with a repression so extreme, it quite literally is killing him. And still, still, he apologizes for it. Apologizes over and over and over, to people who don’t see him. Who never have. Who never will. Because it’s better than being crazy. Because it’s safer than digging his way out. Killing the image everyone sees to rise again as something free and true and authentic. My god. My god, this movie. It shattered me.

Date idea: you sit down while I desperately pace the floor screaming and crying about dead poets society

POOOKIEEEEEEE

Signa here! Me and The Heart Pirates are not dead, things are just complicated right now

BUT Good news, I finished moving and I got an interview from my old job. So, we'll see how well that goes. Hoping to get it, I just want income again.

I've got a somewhat horrible set up right now so drawing schedule will be weird until we get an apartment. Because I'm already killing my back just from doing the Huevembers on my Art Blog.

I'm trying my best trying to draw replies but I got overwhelmed. (Not just the ask blog thing, just IRL type stuff and huevember) But I do have most of the replies planned out.

ALSO I hsve a Kofi!! If you're interested in supporting my art, just treat Kofi as a tip Jar or a Request Tip Jar and I'd post the result on my art blog.

@signatureartsblug <- Art Blog

But for now, on this ask blog, ASK BOX IS CLOSED UNTIL I AM CAUGHT UP!

Please be patient with me _/Zo

Love, Signa.

PS: I'm so sorry for being a ghost, @ask-straw-hat-luffy

One thing I love about 4-month-old babies is that that’s about when your eyes develop enough to see more than a few feet away

So every 4-month-old baby is just looking around with this expression of like “What the fuck, what the fuck, what the fuuuuuuuck”

Sometimes there’s an air of wonder! Often of curiosity or excitement! And as with all babies, often an air of tiny, impotent rage! But the chief sentiment for most humans’ 4th month of life is just “What the fuck, what the actual fuck, did you guys know all this was here”

And I find that delightful

the lucanis romance pacing is kind of objectively terrible, no idea what the writing thought process was, but it’s so funny in-world that it basically circles around to a win for me

Looking at the Saw wiki’s page for Jigsaw’s victims gives such major whiplash because the reason for being tested will be like:

killed someone

corrupt cop

abused partner

racist

And then you’ll see shit like:

was a defense attorney and defended people

tried to catch a serial killer

was abused by partner

cared about friends too much

And my personal favorite

unknowingly married a guy who lied about some stuff

drawn Chibo like this a few times now (I’ve been drawing him a lot actually I miss him), so I think I’m officially updating my design for him
