the thing is there's like, a point of oversaturation for everything, and it's why so many things get dropped after a few minutes. and we act like millennials or gen z kids "have short attention spans" but... that's not quite it. it's more like - we did like it. you just ruined it.

capitalism sees product A having moderate success, and then everything has to come out with their "own version" of product A (which is often exactly the same). and they dump extreme amounts of money and environmental waste into each horrible simulacrum they trot out each season.

now it's not just tiktokkers making videos; it's that instagram and even fucking tumblr both think you want live feeds and video-first programming. and it helps them, because videos are easier to sneak native ads into. the books coming out all have to have 78 buzzwords in them for SEO, or otherwise they don't get published. they are making a live-action remake of moana. i haven't googled it, but there's probably another marvel or starwars something coming out, no matter when you're reading this post.

and we are like "hi, this clone of project A completely misses the point of the original. it is soulless and colorless and miserable." and the company nods and says "yes totally. here is a different clone, but special." and we look at clone 2 and we say "nope, this one is still flat and bad, y'all" and they're like "no, totally, we hear you," and then they make another clone but this time it's, like, a joyless prequel. and by the time they've successfully rolled out "clone 89", the market is incredibly oversaturated, and the consumer is blamed because the company isn't turning a profit.

and like - take even something digital like the tumblr "live streaming" function i just mentioned. that has to take up server space and some amount of carbon footprint; just so this brokenass blue hellsite can roll out a feature that literally none of its userbase actually wants. the thing that's the kicker here: even something that doesn't have a physical production plant still impacts the environment.

and it all just feels like it's rolling out of control because like, you watch companies pour hundreds of thousands of dollars into a remake of a remake of something nobody wants anymore and you're like, not able to afford eggs anymore. and you tell the company that really what you want is a good story about survival and they say "okay so you mean a YA white protagonist has some kind of 'spicy' love triangle" and you're like - hey man i think you're misunderstanding the point of storytelling but they've already printed 76 versions of "city of blood and magic" and "queen of diamond rule" and spent literally millions of dollars on the movie "Candy Crush Killer: Coming to Eat You".

it's like being stuck in a room with a clown that keeps telling the same joke over and over but it's worse every time. and that would be fine but he keeps fucking charging you 6.99. and you keep being like "no, i know it made me laugh the first time, but that's because it was different and new" and the clown is just aggressively sitting there saying "well! plenty of people like my jokes! the reason you're bored of this is because maybe there's something wrong with you!"

#this was much longer i had to cut it down for legibility #but i do want to say i am aware this post doesnt touch on human rights violations as a result of fast fashion #that is because it deserves its own post with a completely different tone #i am an environmental educator #so that's what i know the most about. it wouldn't be appropriate of me to mention off-hand the real and legitimate suffering #that people are going through #without doing my research and providing real ways to help #this is a vent post about a thing i'm watching happen; not a call to action. it would be INCREDIBLY demeaning #to all those affected by the fast fashion industry to pretend that a post like this could speak to their suffering #unfortunately one of the horrible things about latestage capitalism as an activist is that SO many things are linked to this #and i WANT to talk about all of them but it would be a book in its own right. in fact there ARE books about each level of this #and i encourage you to seek them out and read them!!! i am not an expert on that i am just a person on tumblr doing my favorite activity #(complaining)#and it's like - this is the individual versus the industry problem again right because im blaming myself #for being an expert on environmental disaster (which is fucking important) but not knowing EVERYTHING about fast fashion #i'm blaming myself for not covering the many layers of this incredibly complicated problem im pointing out #rather than being like. yeah so actually the fault here lies with the billion dollar industries actually.#my failure to be able to condense an incredibly immense problem that is BOOK-LENGTH into a single text post that i post for free #is not in ANY fucking way the same amount of harm as. you know. the ACTUAL COMPANIES doing this ACTUAL THING for ACTUAL MONEY.#anyway im gonna go donate money while i'm thinking about it. maybe you can too. we can both just agree - well i fuckin tried didn't i #which is more than their CEOs can say

please any atla gojo lore. anything please im begging on my knees hands pressed together like im praying to god

I really wish I could anon :'> we tried to think of non-spoiler-y lore we could share but turns out every aspect of his character is either a. major spoilers or b. a near-direct echo of canon but make it atla flavoured (ie. his relationships w/ geto/shoko/nanami/haibara; him being The Strongest(tm) in-universe, etc). I guess there's technically the satosugu betrothal but that's already Public Knowledge given that there's art, plus the details are (surprise!) more spoilers

so ...yeah.... unfortunately you'll just have to wait to learn more about him in the fic :"> please accept this compensatory art as apology even though i am Not sorry in fact the pleas of the commonfolk make me cackle

jjk atla!au with @philosophiums

#my art #jujutsu kaisen #jjk #fanart #jjk fanart #gojo satoru #gojo #jjk atla!au #atla!au: art #atla!au: illust #lmhs #ily anon gomennnnnnn #i feel a *bit* bad but mostly i am >:3c #i get a sadistic kind of kick out of how u asked abt gojo's lore/abilities #(which i cannot disclose)#and as 'compensation' i provide u with art of gojo presumably Using said abilities #i love Knowing and dangling the knowledge just out of reach . it makes me feel tall :)#i will say however . dont read too much into the visuals #bc in all honesty a lot of th details of gojo's powers just . aren't established yet even between sam and i #bc we've been Procrastinating figuring it out #so I had to take creative liberty as to what theyd Look Like being used #n thats not even me trying 2 b sly we genuinely Dont have the details figured out GJHKDSg #add that to th list of reasons i cant talk abt him ig #side note made his sleeves Way longer here and said o well guess we're keeping them #is gojo a spirit hina

feeling of being watched

#eye strain #cw eye strain #tw eye strain #ralsei #deltarune #i'm in a new era of my art style where i just outline everything in white pencil and think it looks cool #every time i add them i do a victory nod twice at my computer like an old man who just hit par in golf #anyway bright colors hi - i noticed that i tend to default to neutral colors and stay as far away from hues as possible #when i first started digital art i saw someone say to NEVER use the upper right of the HSV picker and i guess i took that to heart #in retrospect that was bad advice; dull colors are safe... but they're still dull and it's good to practice using bright colors too #so here's a hard pivot in the complete opposite direction of my normal work haha #it was fun! but i did have to use a few correction tools to un-muddy my colors so i think i'm gonna do this one more time #you might think the caption is cool and ominous but really i stole it from temmie village #rich history of tem provides plenty of quotable sentences #also! i think i want to reblog my work onto my alt a day after it's posted #i haven't decided for sure but am thinking about it... if you think that'd cause too much clutter though lmk!

How to easily distinguish the Stone triplets from one another:

Eliot:

Jacob:

Alex:

( Inspired by this post.)

#leverage #the librarians #almost paradise #christian kane #eliot spencer #jacob stone #alex walker #don't get me wrong they're all smart yet dumb badasses #but they all have subtle differences!#why yes i am of the opinion that the boys are separated triplets #eliot and alex are confirmed to be adopted so it's possible #i love them all #I'd been wanting to gif this for a while but couldn't find the perfect scene for alex #then season 2 provided it!#and so here we are!#ghostly'sgifs

i love it when bad is very specifically a good roleplayer by giving other people good prompts. like casually bringing up wilbur now to tallulah. or when he put missa in the petting zoo. or all those times he Tormented the Lesbians so they could protect each other from him. its just so !!!! I love watching roleplayers be considerate of other roleplayers and gleefully hand over something they Know the other person's character can react to. i've seen cellbit do it, too (that time he handed his knife to bbh. oh my god). it's not a rare thing, and it's possible to be a good roleplayer without keeping that sort of considerate back and forth in mind, but its one of my favourite things to notice. foolish does it too, sometimes- i haven't watched him much, but i did take note of when he Made Sure to bring jaiden along with him on a cucurucho quest. and basically every interaction he had with bad when the eggs were missing. its just so so good

#i think one of the worst things that can happen to a roleplay is for the players to stop interacting with each others' storylines #roleplay is an incredible medium particularly because of that Collaboration and Improv #and if youre just standing around pushing your own story then yeah sure its fun #but its MAGICAL when people engage with it #and its MAGICAL to look at a story #go 'what if i. did something funny here'#and throw in a little wrench that lights a delighted FIRE in the other player's eyes because now they get to go on a rant #or take drastic measures #or just do something a little fun that they couldn't/wouldn't have without that prompting #its like when bad went around telling people he was imposing building laws on behalf of the feds and people were like #actively a little disappointed that it was just a prank and they couldn't go HAM #anyway i miss roleplay.#qsmp why would you make all these people live so far apart from each other </3 spawn is so uninhabitable there is nothing for them #to make pretty or modify its not Theirs there's no reason for them to be there other than to shop #but i am on . a tangent.#and that is its own lighthearted post analyzing the psychology of built and modifiable vs provided and immovable spaces in the game #no its not late at night and i should not be doing other things (lying)

Small snippet of Mother Earth and Her Infinite Sky (preview) by @silverjirachi ! Admittedly very compressed down to fit into a single page. But still!

#i really missed drawing them HELP all the new content being provided has been great motivation and inspiration #also why did i draw teen max w freckles but here w none well i am a firm believer in max foundatining them away when hes older #also i like changing up how i draw them when im not drawing my personal versions for them but it is so much easier w archie then w max #admittedly because my archie is further removed from canon #so i guess maxes only difference here is that he has his godforsaken oras glasses #i made my post oras designs for them solely to get rid of his horse blinders KJHKAJDHF theyre such a pain to draw #hardenshipping #i am going to post this and i will surely notice a typo right after this. but you know what. i will simply have to cope #quality is a little all over the place in general im just trying to refind my footing #drwaings been hard lately #or . non pixel fusions at least. trying to refind my style a little #thats enough of a tag ramble for one post

I like Lawsan a lot because I think Sanji doubting himself and if he's worthy of the love his crew has for him would end up with Law saying "Someone once told me to not try to find a reason for somebody's love" and it would change both of their lives because Sanji really, really needs to hear that and Law really, really needs to start believing those words and grow as a person and being somebody's support could make him see that.

#lawsan being provided fucking finally in this account bc i told you all once i'd post more about them and i didn't #and i am very sad i didn't bc i love them #but i've been busy #but here you go have your food maybe more later when i get out of work #one piece #trafalgar law #trafalgar d water law #black leg sanji #lawsan #sanlaw

Too Sweet

“Thief.” I remark with a hint surprise as she finally stops struggling. It’s too dark for me to see her features fully, but I can make out the outline of tousled loose curls framing a thin but round face. She’s small, barely coming up to my shoulder. She could truly be a young girl. I almost jeer at the thought, is this what they are resulting to around here? Sending children out to steal? She blinks, and by the light of the stars, those lashes flash over sombre brown eyes. She doesn’t protest when she scoffs at my accusation. “Obviously.”

Hello I am back and I have a fic for you all (: Available here on AO3 (:

I think I've cracked why it makes me so irate when customers have this expectation that workers not only offer service to them but to Do It With a Smile.

It's this sense of entitlement that it isn't enough to have a service offered to you, but that it must never remind you why workers might not be chipper.

What people mistake is that this country is built off freedom that makes us All Happy. What they miss is that this country was built on façades and platitudes - the comfort of being shielded from any uncomfortable reality.

#politics #workers rights #kind of adjacent #but i've said it before: if you want chipper workers contribute to something that would ACTUALLY make us chipper #like... so many people think i'm Rude because i CAN'T HAVE A CUSTOMER SERVICE VOICE (nor am i paid enough even if i could)#and frankly... if they are providing the service without A Smile then what is the problem officer?#is the problem that you had to contend with the idea that... maybe they don't WANT to be here and probably have little choice?#is the problem that you contended with the idea that there's something miserable about that place?#is it the uncomfortable reality that people aren't absolutely elated and enthralled to Serve You?#the frustrating part is when somebody tells you that and you KNOW if you told them that at their placs of work they'd also Not Be Happy #and RIGHTFULLY so because (at least in my eyes) it comes across as needlessly entitled and demanding #had somebody ask if i was okay and i contemplated actually being honest (not a Good idea)

Gummies, a short comic

(I’m no writer so bear with me)

Nika is acting strange

grabbing hold of the mechanic’s hand

Chuchu takes Nika to the Earth House dorms to see what’s up

Once standing now her back suddenly against the floor

Chuchu realized

she was the bottom of this relationship

Woah…Nika…

She’s on top of her

uniform unzipped

Where did the tie go?

The mechanic was leaning closer

she’s so…wobbly…ah…she fell over

Nika was now lying beside her making grunting noises

What’s gotten into her?! This isn’t like her at all…

“Nika-nee…”

Wait, what is that?

What the hell?

Gummies?

Is this what’s causing her to act so strangely?

Where did she even get these?!

Chuchu glanced over at Nika

She’s sitting now

and…chewing something..!!

She got it out

Nika on the other hand was now clenching Chuchu’s jacket tightly

She would NOT let go

Damn it Nika…

The mechanic brought the jacket down to Pom-Pom’s feet and pulled

Chuchu reluctantly stepped out of it as Nika kept pulling

The mechanic fell back, jacket in her grasp

Ah…she took my jacket…

Chuchu raised a hand to reach out towards Nika to give it back

but she was hugging it dearly

no clear sign of giving it up

Chuchu blushed

Cute…

She turned around, scratching the back of her neck

Well, it can’t be helped..

She looked back at Nika who was rubbing her face all over her pink jacket

Nika…

Chuchu walked over to her mechanic

squatting down, arms over her knees

Nika fell over to her side, giggling with the jacket in her face

Chuchu chuckled,

“You’re so drunk, Nika-nee.”

This wasn’t the time to play around though

even Chuchu knew that

She placed her hands under Nika and lifted her up

carrying her in her arms

Yeah she can carry her

Nika was taller but it wasn’t going to stop Chuatury Panlunch

Chuchu had notified the other Earthian girls via text to come to the dorms

She explained the situation and handed the near-empty bag of gummies to Aliya

Lilique placed her hands on her knees and looked down at a now sleeping Nika

She was worried

Nika wasn’t looking too good

The three knew they couldn’t take Nika to the nurse’s office

They would get in so much trouble for having these kind of gummies on campus

knowing they wouldn’t even get a chance to explain because they’re Earthians

then again

How did Nika even get these? There’s no way she’d eat these if she knew what was actually in them

Did she not notice the taste? Well, Chuchu didn’t know how they tasted like

For all she knows they could taste the same as regular gummies or even better!

Someone must have given these to Nika, saying they were just normal fruity gummies

Chuchu was going to get to the bottom of this

but for now

she’s going to stay by Nika’s side and look after her

Bonus:

#wow I finished this at 6 am #writing isn't my style but I wanted to provide more context to the images #idk if I’ll continue this but yeahhh #Nika is going to have a big tummyache and headache when she wakes up #but she’ll be okay bc Chuchu is there #and Aliya will provide remedies #this was all an excuse to draw a drunk Nika #which I want to explore more on if I continue this #her drunken state is supposed to reflect on her how she feels about being a go-between and having to endure the torment from the Spacians #bottled up emotions leaking out #that obviously wasn’t shown here but I have ideas #her love for Chuchu spilled out more #wanting to hold onto what she holds dear to her from the fear of losing them because she’s lying to them #nikachu #chunika #nika nanaura #chuatury panlunch #chuchu #gundam witch from mercury #g witch #my art

Hey this MV sure has a LOT of split second graphics huh

A very short MV but maybe, just maybe, I'll forgive the milgram team with the love letter to graphic design (you know, because that's mikoto's job) and sheer volume of semi-decipherable and semi-indecipherable text/iconography/colour choices...

Do with the following images what you will:
