The fandom when Anya is nice to jimmy and compliments/butters him up after the crash: obviously this is a fawn response. She doesn’t actually think these things about jimmy, she is simply trying to protect herself against a volatile, unstable person by placating him

The fandom when curly tries to placate jimmy by telling Jimmy he’d fix things, after being very nervous about jimmy’s anger and reaction when talking to Anya right beforehand and his heart racing so hard on the way to confront jimmy that he’s likely on the verge of a panic or anxiety attack: hmm. Obviously everything curly is saying to jimmy here is completely genuine and not motivated by anything. He obviously doesn’t care about the fact jimmy raped Anya and only cares about helping jimmy at the detriment to Anya. He’s a rape apologist. There could literally be no other potential explanation for why curly is saying the things he is saying right now. Let’s take everything curly is saying here completely at face value and not analyze anything else about Curly’s behavior or the rest of the scene.

[seriously why are people only capable of recognizing the fawn response in Anya and not Curly]

#to be clear the people who say Anya had a fawn response are RIGHT!#but since curly is a man clearly there’s no way he could be afraid of jimmy #listen. I’m not trying to say curly is completely flawless #and I get why people get mad at curly for what he said to Jimmy there after finding out what jimmy did #because yeah out of context someone telling a rapist stuff like “I’ll fix things” “we’ll get through this together” “you’ve gotten through #difficult times before” in response to said rapist fearing his life will be ruined after his actions are exposed #is deplorable #but you can’t just put things in a vacuum #it was a very difficult situation curly was in. regarding of how he confronts jimmy he’s going to be stuck on a ship with him for 8 months #and before u say “he should’ve just killed Jimmy!” think for a moment.#permanently ending someone’s life is traumatic for the vast majority of people #and this is someone he’s known for years and years so it would be extra difficult #also like. would Anya even want jimmy to be murdered? sure she’d feel safer but I feel like she’d have complicated feelings about it #idk like. it’s a very tricky situation #can’t even report Jimmy to HR because that would result in everyone’s pay getting docked.#which would just hurt Anya since she has no savings #curly mouthwashing #fandom critical #would it felt been more therapeutic for fans if curly instead violently confronted jimmy and beat him up for what he did to Anya? yes #but would that have actually helped Anya? no #if anything it would’ve likely made things worse because Jimmy could’ve just taken his anger out on her afterwards #because they’re on a tiny ship together. only way they could have eliminated the threat to her would be like. tying jimmy up for months #or shoving him in a cryptopod. but knowing pony express I bet improper use of cryptopods would result in docking everyone’s pay #and it would’ve been serviously hard to keep jimmy tied up for months. it’s not like there’s a prison cell on the ship #the crew is already stretched thin do u think they could have someone constantly watch him for 8 months??#because that’s likely what would need to happen if they just kept him tied up #there aren’t any good rooms to lock him in #yes it would’ve been better for everyone in the end if Jimmy was tied up or shoved in a cryptopod or killed #but how was curly supposed to know that. hindsight is 20/20 #yes curly should’ve taken the threat jimmy posed more seriously. and handled the situation better. but there were no easy solutions and—

Not to put too fine of a point on it, but if you're any sort of creative artist that struggles with mental health and the way it affects your ability to create the way you want to (and perhaps feel you need to), please play Alan Wake 2.

Sam Lake gets it.

#alan wake #alan wake 2 #I'm trying to make this spoiler-lite if not spoiler free #but also saga's way of getting out of [REDACTED] is like straight up a great therapeutic method of dealing with brainweasels???#like I brought that up to my therapist who was super into it #but yeah #game good #sam lake does not even pretend there is any glamour in the creative process #it's feverish and ridiculous and sometimes it's like trying to move a mountain with a garden trowel #so yeah if you want a fantastic horror game about how the darker parts of your creative brain will eat you alive if you let them #please play this game

[Art related to my fic, Accidental Siblings.]

Friendos! I'm back with more cute baby Bokushi fanart based on this headcanon of mine from my fic. I know Mibuchi has shorter hair in Extra/Last Game, but I like being in denial so I gave him back his inches. Anyway, hope you enjoy the fluffiness. 🤭

#i have yet to get to a part in the story that would warrant me to write bokushi doing any of this so that's why i needed to draw it instead #just needed to see him get loved on because it's what he deserves #haven't drawn mibuchi since maybe 2017 so I'm a bit rusty but i tried my best #also i was experimenting with the thickness of the brush i was using for the art and i like this better so I'll keep using it #but yeah it was very therapeutic for me to draw this #i was originally going to just draw the first one but then japeneselunchtimerush asked me to add the forehead kiss #thank you once again to aura for fueling my akashi brainrot #couldn't have done it without you #i hope to keep making fluffy drawings of baby Boku since it is my duty 🫡#kuroko no basket #knb fanart #my art #knb fanfic #accidental siblings #mibuchi reo #akashi seijuro #bokushi

Dismantling stuff is basically my free therapy of the day. You can imagine my outmost delight when I found out that the tools had been locked away and I could not, in fact, 'tear that bitch apart'.

#im pretty sure I was THIS close to having a breakdown #So I drew the guy #also another commendable therapeutic tactic #it wasnt the same as setting the earphones apart piece by piece but what can you do #my art #donnie #donatello #vent art #cause yeah #this was purely about venting #if someone's readin #rottmnt #tmnt #sketch #comic strips #art post #donnie fanart

To any of my lovely artist followers, mutuals and friends 🫶

Do any of you know how to make art prints? Or do you have a site that you like to use (that is ideally on the lower price range)?

#really want to get back into selling my art cause I have SO much #and I really wanna make more #but it just feels like a waste of money at this point #yeah it’s therapeutic #but when you’re spending so much money on supplies #when you really should be saving or spending that money on other things - is it worth it???#idk idk idk #I’m getting scary broke #and I’m trying to figure out some way to get some sort of income or idk #I need to get shampoo and conditioner and body wash and I really want to get this self love workbook #but like #I have less than $100 to my name #and no job and no way of making money right now #or at least until after this program #idk I’m rambling now I’m sorry #but if anyone knows how to make prints or if you use a site and you like it pls pls let me know #just feel like it would be easier to sell my art if they were prints idk #shut up rosie #rosie speaks #helpppppp pls #(also I mean my bday is in a few days so if anyone wants to tip me go to my links 🥺#my treelink has my cashapp Venmo and throne in case you don’t have either of those in your country 🩷#lol I mean linktree #you get what I mean shush

*Overdramatically tosses a Holy Water at you*

I like this pose too, but that body bend was unsurprisingly a challenge. And no matter what, Simon has to do that little dainty thing with his hand (I told you I am not hallucinating, also it's cute).

#I WAS gonna draw a richter for scale but I got tired #he can train with his ancestor later :>#yeah the other thing with these pose redraws are it's wonderful practice for translating styles #especially since I was actually looking at richter for this pose (as he was facing forward)-- they don't have the same exact body shape ;V #(it was also hard because my reference was at 720p or under or something aghhh)#doodle-daas #castlevania #simon belmont #thank you to this pretty hunter guy and his therapeutic muscles to get me out of an energy-drop #anti netflixvania

seonhee and sawashiro both being associated with purple's the most evil shit in the world now who the fuck am i supposed to put in my purple card holder

#snap chats #sorry guys im one of those girlies who are super into card holders now </3 esp the ones you can customize </3 #highkey i got this cause i wanted to put my school id in it so i didnt have to take my wallet out every time i needed to get in my buildin #BUT ON THE LOWEST OF KEYS I GOT IT TO BE MENTALLY ILL TOO i was obsessed watchin people journal and make cute card holders #i dont get recc'd those vids anymore but i remember watchin em an bein like MAN i wanna do that.... thats so cute..#on the real i think card holder customizing's healthy for me. it helps me learn to use things i buy LMAO #CAUSE WITH STICKERS AND THE SORT I HOARD THEM AND NEVER USE EM #and i always get buyer's guilt even if it's something small so i just think. i have to learn letting go and things not being perfect is ok #YOU BOUGHT IT SO USE IT like those ishin colognes... like the scent'll fade anyway i should use them while i can...#as much fun and therapeutic I Think as this was tho i cant imagine having a need to get another card holder... tragedy..#regardless. this card holder's really cute </3 spoilers it's a kuromi one cause i needed more purple in my room i fuckin guess #the stickers were real cute.. also there was a lil baku... hi baku <3 #which leads me back to my problem. '''''''problem''''''' yeah i dont even have a printer here but when i go back to my ma's i wanna be sick #walmart lets you get photos on that GLOSSY PAPER... tempted... anyway no listen to my non problems #cause in my heart i do associate kuromi with seonhee alright it just makes sense. PLUS baku and joon-gi #COUNTERPOINT. HOWEVER. there is no image funnier than slapping a depressed middle aged man who prob has a worryin body count #into a card holder decorated with hearts and sweets and bows with a big ass heart keychain danglin off it. like cmon #big brain move is to print out one pic each of em and just swap em out every other day LOOOL #i just want an excuse to show off the card holder.. i get why people have these now this was fun and cute....#ok bye i think ive been ill enough tonight #i thought i was gonna finish another comm but ☠️ ill just do them tomorrow morning they wont take long..

very impossible to find the balance between "i want my friends to be able to talk to me about their problems and tell me when they're struggling" and "i am extremely emotionally fragile at the moment because i'm doing very badly and talking about very heavy topics especially with no warning is not something i feel capable of dealing with right now because i'm on the verge of a violent mental breakdown"
