at this point when I read free palestine or see a watermelon emoji in someone's bio I go "are you free palestine as in innocent gazan civilians don't deserve to be massacred and peace is the solution to the conflict or are you free palestine as in hamas are freedom fighters and the solution is getting rid of the isnotrealis". I wish I had the power to instantly know which one it is so I know whether I'm looking at a person who wants me dead or not.

I just think not enough of you use Taking Back Sunday lyrics in your toxic ship posts

I've been practising my video editing, and I couldn't get this idea for a little celebration of kisses in Doctor Who out of my head until I'd made it.

Mostly new Who because that's where most of the kissing happens, but there's a smattering of classic Who as well.

Find it on AO3 here.

I'm actually lowkey against any visual-medium adaptations of Legends books because I don't want Jaina and Tahiri and Tenel Ka and potentially most of my favorite Star Wars characters to get their own counterparts to the Mara Catsuit Epidemic, or worse.

Writing Royai/Fullmetal Alchemist fanfiction is just constantly googling “was ______ invented yet in the 1900’s??”

Gonna try to have an update on that councilor painting out today. I've probably spent just as much time drawing as I have researching christian art, stories, and symbolism and Ultrakill lore and Greek myth/history especially the role it plays in Dante's divine comedy but also in general that's just my new hyperfixation lol. This game has turned me into a huge fucking religion nerd I need to be put down. I'm reading a book for the first time in like years and it's the fucking Iliad I think I'm diseased Ultrakill has done something to my brain chemistry .

Anyways. Update either tonight or tomorrow on that piece. Would you believe it's still in the sketch phase? I would. My wrist hurt. Here's some sneak peeks of where I'm at.

I did end up switching Sithiel w the messenger guy for the sake of crowding them all into that space. I swear updates will come much more smoothly and frequently one I'm done sketching and planning this thing is just kind of a monster to put together, it's gonna need a whole separate post for me to explain the unreasonable mount of symbolism and detail going into it.

Idk that's how life is be I supposee. I gotta do the dishes and then I'll be working on this, or maybe writing. Do people here know I have an AO3? I post there too. Same username js with an underscore instead of a dash.

mfs will see a flawed middle aged female character and be like “what a bitch” and i’ll see her and be like “what a bitch <3 <3 <3 <3”

୨୧ i’m seriously so done with how my brain works… it really just decides to pick the characters with the smallest screen time to obsess over… he’s such a cutie pie, i hate it!

hi! i'm sorry for the dumb question but i wanted to finally start reading manga in japanese (i already have a little list of titles beginner-friendly) buuuut i'm not sure where i actually find it ;; sorry again for the stupid question

Not a dumb question at all! There are a bunch of places to get manga, the most accessible probably being (unfortunately) amazon.jp. You need to have a Japanese address to buy things regardless of where it's being shipped to (or not, in the case of ebooks), but I believe just any address will do. You can also sometimes buy manga directly on the publisher's sites. Cmoa is another good place to check, and they also will often have entire volumes of manga available to read on their site for free (just look for the 無料 section). Bilingualmanga might also be of interest. It's free (and therefore sometimes gets taken down), but is exactly what it sounds like. Their selection isn't huge, but what they do have, they have in both English and Japanese.

If you want to buy physical volumes, CDJapan is my go-to. I'm in the USA, but I'm pretty sure they ship to most parts of the world. Kinokuniya is also a good place to buy manga from, especially if you're lucky enough to have a physical store near you. My main issue with them is that I think they're overpriced, though. Another thing that depends on luck, if you have any Book Off stores near you, go check them out! It's secondhand, so finding what you're looking for is definitely luck based, but I think it's a good experience to browse Japanese language books and manga regardless.

If you're having trouble finding something in particular, or want some... slightly less legal sources, feel free to contact me off anon!
