congrats on your recovery n all yuuji but unfortunately for you I thought the scars were cool >:/
#my art#jujutsu kaisen#jjk#yuji itadori#jjk fanart#jujutsu kaisen fanart#jjk art#jjk spoilers#jjk manga spoilers#jjk leaks#these took so long i kept getting distracted cries#but they r done and this is yuuji's post canon scar map to me. argue with a wall we should have had this#looks at canon this sign won't stop me bc i cant read >:(#smh robbed!!!!!! the potential!!!!! the aesthetic!!!!! th angst the symbolism!!!!!!#gege i respect u i do not want beef after u let my boys live#but u rly couldnt have scuffed him up a LITTLE more.....there were so many to choose from didnt u have a favourite.....#all he has to show fr all that r two little scratches. rly.#((not counting the ear n fingers thank god i get That much))#anyway i made a whole post abt why i think yuuji should have kept the scars n what it would have stood for symbolically#its along th same lines as the yuuji Big Face Scar agenda hh i just care a lot abt character design n visual storytelling ok#anyway fine he can keep the eye but in this house it grew back wrong it's lighter and foggy and now his prescription is stronger#as fr the rest#megumi has dibs on the upper right eye apparently so yuuji can have the bottom half#i would have doubled down on the scars on his left but a. the right side is the symbolic one#b. he healed an entire eye so it makes sense tht he'd heal other more minor injuries as well#c. tbh it's mostly based on what looked good i think this arrangement guides the eye across his face nicely#gave him a lil nose nick bc smth smth sukuna idk it's just there to balance things out#also as i said. the jaw and neck scar are there for kissing purposes i make the rules im salty and i do what i want smile#in other news thank u past hina fr doing those hair render studies im very happy with my yuuji hair as of late

I'm rereading Lockwood & Co. and I just started The Screaming Staircase and. the thought of little 8-year-old Lucy Carlyle walking around in an agency uniform actually makes me so sick to my stomach.
#sometimes while reading something i come across an image that i have to immediately block out of my head#and this time it's thinking about that little girl on the front lines#and it being NORMAL#and her being PROUD OF IT#THAT'S ANOTHER LEVEL OF BRAINWASHING#'it seemed a fine thing to be part of this select and important company'#'walking tall in our mustard-coloured jackets'#'with the great Mr Jacobs at our head'#those were child soldiers enlisted by adults#and they were convinced to be proud of it#at 8 years old#it's the hunger games in a different font#someone hold me i'm thinking about little Lucy Carlyle again#lockwood and co#lockwood & co#lucy carlyle#the screaming staircase

Why did Rick do this to us?
Seriously, he went, "Yeah I'm gonna establish a history between two important characters on opposing sides of a conflict in which one of them clearly has negative feelings about the other. and then never bring it up again 🤪" BITCH COME BACK HERE!!!
There was so much that could have been going on between these two! I was talking to @nakamurastorrington about this on twt the other day.
Like, Annabeth's fatal flaw is hubris and Ethan's mother is the physical embodiment of the punishment for hubris, they are diametrically opposed! They have their shared history at camp but very different experiences with the system where Annabeth was pretty much immediately claimed and became the head councillor of her own cabin from a very young age, establishing her as a respected veteran at camp. Meanwhile, Ethan was shoved into a corner of someone else's cabin because he wasn't worth his own cabin, and so he just faded into the background. Also, Their relationship with Luke! They both had Luke as a big brother figure. Annabeth saw him as genuine family and Ethan would have looked up to him as his brother while in the Hermes cabin. Then Luke left and Annabeth still held out hope for him and refused to believe he'd ever truly passed the point of no return even while everyone constantly told her she was wrong, and Ethan, despite spending a year working for Kronos and seeing the worst of the results of Luke's actions, still believed he was in there fighting Kronos. Not to mention, THEIR MOTHERS??!?!!?!
There could have been such interesting conflict between them! Annabeth should have gotten to talk to Ethan during the parley. If anyone should have gotten to snap at Ethan about his mother, it should have been her because he would have snapped back so hard!
#pjo#percy jackson#ethan nakamura#annabeth chase#they could have had everything!#rick fumbled so hard#why include that line if you just ignore it afterwards???#why didn't Annabeth have more of a reaction when Percy told her Ethan thought Luke was still fighting Kronos?#why didn't Annabeth and Percy mention Ethan a little more in tlo?#Annabeth comes across like she knows literally nothing about Ethan other than his name#which could be fine to highlight how insignificant unclaimed demigods are in chb#esp in comparison to claimed olympian kids#but it would have been great to see that one-sided hatred develop into an aactual nuanced dynamic between the two#especially if it came with Annabeth reckoning with her relative privalege in the hierarchy of the camp#and reevaluating her relationship with her mother

Going from Vox Machina the last two and a half game sessions to Mighty Nein tonight is absolutely insane tonal whiplash.
Cause both are lvl20 parties who've done incredible things, but Vox Machina heading to battle were like: *battle plan 1000% made enough that there's pretty much nothing to discuss* "We're saving the world again!" *fully confident that they'll successfully save the world, save Vax, and come home to their kids safely* *Inspirational Leader speech to an entire army* *equally confident that even if they fail their family will be fine and able to take care of the world in their stead* *saving eachother instinctively* *successfully saving everyone on a crashing skyship while on another skyship thats being shot at without any hesitation, difficulty or injury* *looking absolutely eipcally cool while doing so*
Meanwhile at pretty much the same time the Mighty Nein are just: *genuinely discussing if charging in butt naked would be an effective plan* *mostly saving the world just cause they live there* *start randomly tattooing people* *discussing love lives and a potential threesome in front of people they met yesterday* *casually arguing about unhinged wedding plans instead of planning for battle* *fighting eachother* 'If you kill our friend I will take advantage of being the favorite uncle to make your life torture' *almost TPK while on a zipline to the battle because they're just such disasters* "YOU WIN BY DEFAULT! DONT SHOOT MY WIFE AND OUR SHARED BEST FRIEND!" *slipping on ball bearings they threw behind them*
Everything about this was just wild in the complete opposite way the last few were
#critical role#critical role spoilers#cr spoilers#cr c3e113#cr c3e115#vox machina#mighty nein#the fact that those two episodes were happening at the same time#'roll a strength check to not fall off the boat' 'im holding onto her' 'me too' 'you're all holding onto eachother?' *nods from everyone*#vs#'roll for athletics to successfully climb across the line' 'i use shocking grasp to knock her off' 'it doesnt work' 'fine-i pull out my bow'

👍 they're funny to me. i love the thought of everyone being a little baffled except cori who is soooo excited. unrelated but brnine is just off-panel playing darts with misericorde + cor'rina & losing badly & not even paying attention to what's happening here
#it's healthy for me to draw silly comics.i need it#it's not as healthy to try & go for clean(ish) lines with these but I pushed through lol#in the end...it's pictures#and writing which is my less favourite part but it's fine. it gets across. are they flirting?#rosa art#palisade#palisade spoilers#i didn't have another cas panel in me but they're like... chin on hand leaning on it slightly + smiling. at cas last line#leap&cas aside that might be the best cori i've ever drawn hands down

sirius black is autistic. i know this in my heart.
#have you guys read hp?????#and if you're thinking like 'oh he's just socially awkward cause he's been in azkaban for 12 yrs'#then fine. swm. man is honest asf which comes across as mean#and now if you're thinking 'oh sirius isj just mean'#well what about 'id say she thinks you're a bit conceited mate'#you think he's being mean to james??? (apparently that line is mean. i have confirmation from neurotypicals)#he is not being mean to james. he is being honest.#james asked a question (WHICH was rhetorical) so sirius answered it honestly .#and james isn't insulted by sirius or anything. like he is aware sirius was just being honest and not trying to hurt his feelings#because sirius is autistic. he is.#sirius black

I think as we grow up, we have to be really conscious of romanticizing the world we grew up in in order to scorn how the next generations are growing up.
Nostalgia isn't inherently bad, but especially in political spaces, be very wary of this idea that there is an Ideal Past we must Harken Back To.
It sucks to feel left behind, but such is the human condition. It isn't bad to feel nostalgic, but that doesn't mean that these new generations are inherently "lost" and "need to be saved (by you)", and I think that is very important to remember and try to be conscious of.
#politics#'the world you grew up in no longer exists' frankly... GOOD!#the world i personally grew up in was scary and lonely and traumatizing. no kid today should STILL be growing up like that#the whole 'nostalgia as a poltical means' is rooted in this idea that...#1) we all grew up in a hegemony 2) we all turned out the same 3) the way we grew up had more privileges afforded to us#and i personally like nostalgia! i like watching videocamera videos from 2005 and looking up super specific shit#but nostalgia does not a good world make#INSERT UMBERTO ECO'S FOURTEEN POINTS ON FASCISM#(though i don't always think nostalgia can lead to this in a political sense there is a fine line)#be very mindful of what motivates nostalgiaposting#is it because people miss childhood and how 'simple' it felt? or is there a different reason that motivates this type of posting?#are you romanticizing childhood to the point you are not remembering your childhood /at all/ but the *idea* of it?#and honestly it is SO jarring when my peers are nostalgic because it's like... we aren't even that old!!#it comes across like... the world is hard and it's getting harder and so we cannot chnage and must wistfully think of the past...#...and to me it comes across as almost... doomerist in how end-stage feelings of nostalgia and hopelessness seen#i feel compassion for the impulse to feel like your old life is over and you need to grieve it...#...but certainly that isn't the younger generations fault? especially because WE are now the ones rasing them and we still yet live#(even at our completely decrepit age of not even close to a mid-life crisis (sarcasm and lighthearted))

now that i've read the ballad of songbirds and snakes book i'm gonna rewatch the movie and see what happens
#uhhhh me#i already know the basics of what the movie Didn't capture#like it 100% did not get across how conniving and selfish snow is#dare i say they woobified him#and yet somehow they didn't really explain how dirt poor he is#OH also quick review of the book is i think it's fine BUT some of the chapter/scene transitions are wack#and some of snow's internal thoughts are unintentionally hokey and hilarious#will never stop thinking about snow going 'ugh. boo.'#like he's a mean girl in high school#i love discovering just how much snow is a piece of shit tho bc like i said it did not come across at all in the movie#he's so manipulative it's wild#interesting how silver-tongued he is and yet when it came to the last lie with lucy gray he suddenly couldn't lie convincingly#also must say ms rachel zegler did such a good job playing her bc i could picture her saying all the lines in the book

Blood Banquet (Crestoria OST Addition Version).
Type: Skit (xMA with Misella). Character: Kanata (Third Skit). Characters Featured: Kanata, Misella, Vicious, Aegis, Yuna.
Translation, recording, subbing by Shi. Proofread by Yewfelle.
NOTE: About halfway into the skit, there's a BGM change. This was an edit made by me and is not used in the original skit. The original, unedited version of this is also on my YT channel and this blog.
#Tales of the Rays#Tales of Crestoria#Kanata Hjuger#Misella (Crestoria)#Vicious (Crestoria)#Aegis Alver#Yuna Azetta#Type: Skit#Tales of the Rays Translations#Translation notes: In JP Yuna refers to Aegis as “Aetsun” in reference to his “tsundere” nature#The localization uses “Aegrouch” to a get similar idea nickname across (and one I feel combines better!)#so I retained the localization usage here. Similarly (not seen in this skit but appears in an event) she refers to Kanata as Kana-bo#(similar to Moses using Jay-bo though in Moses' case he uses Jay's full name and here Yuna shortens Kanata's name)#(Also side note that the nicknames she uses in Rays are still what she uses in Crestoria itself.#That said going forward I'll be retaining Yuna's localized nicknames and accent#so Misella will still be “Mademoiselle” (Yuna uses ojou-chan for her which is effectively “young lady” with an affectionate “cute” suffix).#Unfortunately alas we have no Orboo though. :( Orboo is here in spirit and in our hearts...#Also please be aware I will not be using any French words in Yuna's dialogue.#I'll talk about this more in a separate post so I can combine it with her nickname information.#This stuff will also mostly be in the video description on YT.#Also yes Misella's line of “it will be fine I'm sure of it probably” was literally the JP dialogue LOL.#This cast is so fun to translate for...

somehow, I don't know how, but somehow sewing machines always know when you're nearly done with a project and pick that exact moment to throw a hissy fit
#sewing#sewing machines#I am so close to finishing this dumb swimsuit that I started in 2020 for a vacation that ended up not happening#and which I stuffed into a shoebox and into the back of my sewing stash when I realized I wouldn't get to wear it in 2020#then pulled it back out to finish for this family gathering coming up in a few days here#it's a one-piece suit and I hate one-piece swimsuits#and no one-piece has fit me off the rack since puberty so I'm stuck sewing it for myself#but I'm very happy with the design and relatively happy with the finished look#the idea is just to have something that is supportive and modest enough to wear around family#and in particular to wear to something like a waterpark with my nephews#something that won't ride up or fall down or come untied or anything like that#so it has a low-cut leg hole and a high-cut neck#and an entire invisible superstructure in the lining underneath to actually provide support and enclosure and all#it's plain black but it fits and supports and won't fly apart at the seams#but this very last step. oh this last step.#I had to drape the exterior bust area directly on me bc I can't account for curves and stretch and such if it's flat on the table#and then I had to wiggle out of it carefully with a ton of pins in the underarm and neckline area#I'm using a double-needle to top stitch the edges as a finish across the whole suit. it did one underarm and the neckline just fine!#but the turn from where the neckline meets the strap and down into the other underarm it just. won't do it.#it has thrown a fit and created a tangle of thread multiple times now. there are only 4" left to sew! just sew it!#it's not hard! we just did the exact same thing on the other side and it worked fine! but no! gotta throw a hissy fit!#ugh. anyway. I have removed all the thread and needles from the machine and turned it off and basically sent it to timeout lol#wrote this rant and gonna make myself some food and I'll fucking finish those last 4 inches later tonight or tomorrow#and then I have one tiny repair to something else I want to take on this trip. hopefully my sewing machine won't throw a fit over that too#istg the only projects this doesn't happen with are the ones that end with a bunch of handsewing#that's the way to trick my sewing machine I guess. but I'm not handsewing a swimsuit lol#at least I'm not so pressed for time that I can't just walk away from it for a bit. getting close to time to pack but not quite yet#my sewing#2024 mood#tagtalking

Sora, who has murdered people and then laughed about it (maleficent, shan yu, floatsom and jetsum, sinking several ships of actual humans in the Caribbean though to be fair this one IS kh3) when grabbed by two people lightly on the shoulders: this is so unfriendly!
#listen i know that dream drop fed us sorikus a literal snow white narrative complete with a paopu fruit bearing rainbow keyblade#but was it worth it? was it worth it?#i think we could have kept thriving with just ''its riku! i looked everywhere for you!'' on his knees sobbing while he awkwardly dodges hug#from literally everyone else#we were doing fine without the gayblade#and i blame 3D for the lack of sora's love of murder in kh3#and for other lines which have sora come across as dumb instead of just distractable#cough i dont computer cough#sora you fly a fucking space ship regularly#what the fuck do you mean you dont computer#if you didnt computer then you donald and goofy would be fucking dead by now#sora#bad quotes bracket#regularpat#also before anyone comes in here saying that was Roxas's anger 1) sora is called angry several times in the kh1 manga and in recom itself#2) its both Roxas and Sora's anger combining. Don't forget the mental state sora is in in kh2. He doesnt know if RIku is alive; ppl keep#calling him Roxas; he just woke up and his memories are a fucking mess still; and then Kairi gets kidnapped#sora's infamous kh2 murder spree is mostly him for the non org members#then roxas' anger helps out once he starts taking out nobodies
