the eclipse was only on Saturday and my god has my life been insane since. Like i know i go a little manic in spring but holy fuck
#like things got interesting on Saturday#Sunday was calm enough#Monday/Tuesday I was rotting thank goodness#but since Wednesday it has been non stop#mostly positive and social and nice!!!!!#but also crazy. not necessarily bad but maybe not a good idea#and at some points very excellent#and then more happened last night#that thankfully I was saved from engaging in cos that was the one thing#that stood out as overall not positive#and now I’m on my sofa my meds have kicked in and I’m feeling like I’d rather be calm rn actually#like i really need to retreat today#for context if anyone understands astrology…….. which is a couple of u who followed me thru Astro posts#solar eclipse was in my 7h. conjunct s/m midpoint with 1d orb#vertex under <2d orb. and descendant <4d orb#my natal Venus is retrograde which is think is why I’m experiencing so much activity like I’m getting power from this#but current retro Venus and Mercury left my 7h and have been sextile natal Venus/neptune#then semi sextile Jupiter. and are forming sextile with sun#mars my 7h ruler and natally in 5th has been opposing my sun#sun is conjunct natal 7h Saturn while Jupiter sextiles both. but that feels serious not chaotic like I’ve been experiencing#the chaos I’ll point out Uranus is square Jupiter in 5h. this is definitely a major thing shaking things up for me#but also because it loosely trines both sun and venus at the same time#and will now be closing in on the Venus trine until end of summer#t Mars and t Saturn both sextile t Uranus too. really amping everything up#Saturn and Uranus are co-rulers of my 5h#so again while I’ve had a mostly very positive time#the decisions probably weren’t good but were fun#and i feel completely motion sick

Three different boys like Adelaide right now and they all play on the same basketball team together.
Boy drama.
#one of them has asked her to be his valentine#and she’s having a hard time deciding whether or not to accept#because he’s best friends with one of the other boys who likes her#which is very sweet of her#and is certainly a factor#but I think ultimately is THEIR problem to sort out#she and the third boy have decided their friendship is more important#that’s a boy I know fairly well#and he is a GEM#a really really great kid#they may wind up at the same high school together#and it is my very secret hope that they date at some point then#because I think he’d be an excellent early boyfriend#and help her seek out healthy relationships with kind people#but I of course plan to never tell Adelaide this opinion

Holo-technology is an ethical nightmare. Lemme just magic up a person with individual thoughts and feelings to entertain myself, and then shut them off at my leisure. I’m sure this will have no real-world ramifications for me ever in my life.
We’re out here with a whole holo-village that’s gained sentience, and this is like the fifth time something like this has happened.
#lemme see if I can name some Incidents off the top of my head#moriarty#the doctor from voyager#Vic the lounge singer#the titular village in this episode I’m watching that this sad man made to feel less lonely#that little Irish village that Tom Paris made#I’m sure there are others but I am drawing a blank#the line between sentience and cleverly made AI is alarmingly thin in the Star Trek ‘verse#on one hand: FUN and endless whimsy#on the other: endless paranoia that the program can mutate just wrong and try its hand at taking over the ship#an excellent plot point overall#very good for mora dilemmas and you know that’s the bread and butter of your average Star Trek episode#Star Trek#French trek#ds9#Star Trek: the next generation#voyager#holodecks

hs2 is so extremely nothing its defenders will be like you can't judge it as a continuation of homestuck, its own thing!! which i would agree if hs2 wanted or tried to be anything else than meta homestuck commentary which truthfully we need like an 8th hole in the head. homestuck is already its own meta commentary. This Could Have Been An Email two paragraph twitter thread. it has no interest in really telling a story or new events or new action new anything all it wants is to painfully toddle from character to character then sit down and monologue directly at the camera about the characters motivations in homestuck proper. thats crazy. thats the blu-ray bonus reel not a story
#some of the writers they have are very very talented people and ive enjoyed their past fanworks#but they excel in extremely short direct to the point character analysis with like comics as an artistic medium they arent comic story#writers

they’re so cute. choso and yuuji’s brotherly bond is everything to me
#how does it feel to have my top 3 fav characters shine in the past few chapters? excellent#jjk spoilers#jjk 258#choso#itadori yuuji#their sibling relationship is so interesting and good.#idk if it’s because I’ve been too busy to really delve into the chapters the past couple months#but i actually had a blast casually reading these#i feel like I’m starting to get an idea of where it’s heading and feeling much more positive about it than before#like some of the ways we got to this point was. badly executed. not good.#but for what we have now—it’s at a great point and im excited for the next chapters#i am very biased as a maki yuuji and Choso fan though :)#if only kenjaku was still around I’d be even MORE excited#id in alt

Ah yes.
The biggest and most touching love story in Shoujo Cosette.
Oh, and Marius and Cosette are also there.
#valvert#jean valjean#javert#les Miserables#les mis#shoujo cosette#marius pontmercy#cosette#this is only half joke#bc i think marisette is actually very sweet in sc#there's the brick compliant stalkerish behavior at the beginning#but the two actually take the time talking and knowing each others#and they also talk POLITICS#and Cosette stays a character instead of becoming a merely a narrative device and at one point she wants to go FIGHT AT THE BARRICADE#but jvj says no#and Marius is committed to the cause and also very moe#this is from yamato shop's box set containing both the italian dub and the japanese original audio#which are both excellent btw#but i may have some complaints about the dvds which i need to check first#there's a nice booklet tho#containing sketches of some characters#not the amis tho thats disappointing

maybe you should doodle however many or few starcon/helix/damned characters as you like (in human or alien form) in cute halloween costumes! imagine... ZEX dressed up as Ariel thelittlemermaid...
Day 26 - "I hadn't realized humans also had aquatic subcultures!" "Oh, well, uhm..."
#My art#Requestober#SCII#Damned#DAX#ZEX#The Captain#You can't tempt me like this I'm too weak to it agh#I am sorely convinced that with a Slightly longer time frame to work on this I would've gone with my first idea#It was way overly-ambitious for a less-than-24-hour time limit but hhghhh I /do/ want to draw everyone in cute costumes!!!#Super doesn't help that I very broke my sleep schedule and like as soon as this came in I fell asleep for three hours lol#And was still tired!!! That's just not fair says I#But I still managed >:3c Because I limited my scope haha but that's important too!! And it still turned out cute!!!#I mean how couldn't it - ZEX as The Little Mermaid is just-#I'm enamoured it's so perfect for him..........what an excellent idea...........definitely not going to be thinking about this for A While#Funnily enough my immediate thought was actually angst haha - the mermaid has to give up her voice! What would ZEX give up?#That he hasn't already anyhow - and then thoughts of reviving Zelnick but selfishly I just hhghgh I love himm I love themmmm#For now the cutes tho!!!!#It tickles me so bad that a significant portion of Damned takes place in October hehe <3 ZEX arrived in November but still!#And then the Halloween event to get their canon outfits back fjdskalfjd ahhh!!!#I'm many many years too late lol but there's something very lovely about the theme continuing ahh <3 <3#Oh yeah and there's also two others in costume here lol - the Captain's was easy haha <3 Dashing prince! He suits it ♪#For DAX lol at first I considered Triton? But he's not quite That bad about ZEX's human infatuation#Not that he's as admissive or manipulative as Ursula either - at some point it might've just become ''I want to see him in it'' lol#He's so happy about it haha <3#Can you tell I had fun with ZEX's costume lol - sparklies!!! Had fun with the glitter on his shoes :D#I Will find a place to use my scale brush anywhere and everywhere and that's a threat#I wonder what ZEX would think of human animation haha - I only remember there being one movie night at the Institute!#Surely Disney would get the greenlight to be played in the Sun Room! ZEX having a transcendent ''seen'' experience aw <3

‘gay retelling of a classic!’ ‘feminist sapphic twist on this greek myth!’ why don’t you write a better book than that. i think we deserve better books than that
#just had ‘jane austen’s mansfield park reimagined as a sapphic murder mystery’ advertised 2 me on IG. and i just think you should write a#better book than that. if you want to write a ‘sapphic murder mystery’ then write it. the fact that you have to lean on existing classics#and advertise yours as a ‘retelling’ or a ‘twist’ or a ‘reimagining’ suggests to me that you are not a very good writer. sorry this is very#hatery but i believe it…just write a new book. a better book. what is the point of writing a gay version of wuthering heights other than it#solves your problem of not being able to come up with a plot because you are not a very good writer. i dont know. i suppose there is space#for anything and should be space for all sorts in the publishing industry but also i hear sapphic murder mystery mansfield park and i think#that’s probably not a very good book. idk. there is excellent queer and feminist original fiction out there without the need to take#existing literature at random and use that as a crutch for some reason…#(ridi's) bigmouth strikes again

why is the onus on me to spend MY time and money to figure out how to wrangle my brain chemistry. some people are born and their shit works out the box this SUCKS
#last complaining post i prommy i just. sigh#feeling very that post about glasses 'some people can see fresh out the pussy' or whatever it says#i don't have Time to figure this shit out and when i do have time for it there's not enough going on to warrant spending all that time#narrowing it down (and also there's less actively going wrong to point out the problem)#in some good news i made it to campus today and i have plans to meet a friend and work together and then go to heels class#so we have fresh air and face-to-face friend time and exercise in my near future! i just have to leave my car#time moves forward and so will i. or something#god i have to text so many people back#a post#also kal your seo playlist is doing some Heavy lifting today thank you for having excellent taste and also sharing it 🫶❣️

Astarion, nude & covered in blood "based on my likes".
...You know me so well, algorithm. Brick by brick, as it were.
#ooc#have i forgotten my Astarion blog? no.#Will i return to it? Not right now. but never say never.#i have enough on my hands currently here#am I thinking about how good/bad Nethra would be for Astarion? Always.#let me consider more rare pairs if you will#Melchior & Astarion. delicious.#Emmrich & Astarion? That's very good.#the only problem is im not willing to take any of my characters outside of their DA verses right now#including Nethra even though i did build a BG3 verse for him#i just need to hyperfocus on one world rn yk#and this goes for all fandomless or other fandom muses who may have followed me recently: if you don't have a DA verse#im not sure how we're going to interact.#sometimes i don't do an excellent job making sure you have one before i follow back so i couldn't say who does or doesn't have one#that i've noticed.#maybe at some point if i loosen my grip a little bit on DA i can expand my own verses to be more flexible#but for right now u gotta have one or i just don't know sorry

Regarding the previous post, I think the way I approach trying to evaluate a piece of art is asking "Do I think the positive things I get out of it outweigh the parts of it that I don't like?" And when I call something a "guilty pleasure" song/show/book/piece of media/etc. it's really more in the sense of, "Given who I am as a person, the flaws I've found in this should be complete dealbreakers for me, but somehow they aren't, and it makes me feel like I'm having an identity crisis."
#like. I think something like...idk shiki or cxgf excels on multiple levels. I understand why I like them. given the things I look for in art#it makes sense that these shows would speak to me because they make the effort to showcase those things I look for. because the people#in charge of those works clearly valued the same kinds of things and cared about seriously exploring them.#but with something like. uh. ctrlz. that is NOT the case and I frequently found myself going 'why would anyone make this writing#decision?' but I still sat through all 3 seasons of it! I still really enjoyed it! those flaws SHOULD have made me give up according to#personal history but they never did. and I very very much genuinely question why. I have NO IDEA why I still care about this#silly convoluted teen drama show so much. but I do. I wrote SO MANY FUCKING POSTS ABOUT IT.#I really love wicked the musical. I've heard many people call it 'hokey' or 'cheesy' or 'objectively bad' but here's the thing! I DON'T#think it's bad!!! like literally at all!!!!!! and it does do some genuinely cool things in regard to the music and the way the characters#develop and what the show says about the nature of prejudice and human connection. is it like. idk Serious™ the way that something like#Parade is? no. but it doesn't have to be. it does what it sets out to do and it does it well and this is why the whole '''objective#evaluation''' thing doesn't actually mean anything. I value thoughtfully-constructed music and dynamic female characters#(which this musical has). I value stories that deal with the complex and messy feelings that come with being a human (which this musical#has). I value stories about 'other'ness and romantic subplots that aren't just built on 'This Girl Is Pretty' (which this musical has).#and I value professional displays of technical vocal ability because I know how fucking DIFFICULT that is (which this musical...if you cast#it well...has).#if you value something else in a musical then yeah you will probably think THIS one is '''objectively bad'''#if you don't see the point of musicals as an art form you will probably think wicked is '''objectively bad'''#do you see where the problem with categorizing analysis like this is??

Me: I have so many fairy tale retellings that I was already planning on working on. It'll be easy to just pick one and finish it before Valentine's Day.
My brain: That's cool!
My brain: But what if
My brain: and hear me out
My brain: What if you came up with an entirely new retelling?
Me:
Me:
Me: I'm listening.
#adventures in writing#fairy tale retellings#i've had a vague desire for a maid maleen retelling#and when i was considering options i got hit hard by a desire to retell this one#(excellent friendship to explore)#and it had a very strong landscape that reminded me of the marastel and jemrauth arateph moodboard#and i realized that i already had a situation where a woman and her handmaid were loyal friends#and there was a forbidden romance with a prince#it couldn't be their actual romance story because i want to stick to the fairy tale plot points#including the war#which would not fit in their world#but maybe if i used some of those character dynamics#and the world from 'in chains'#i could make a fairly accurate yet detailed retelling#the feeling will fade within a day#especially now that i've spilled the details#but if nothing else i'll have had the fun of telling you about it because it's an excellent daydream

My DM from my D&D group has been working overtime trying to get me to watch Fantasy High from Dropout saying it was really good and a great way to watch a streamed D&D campaign, and I've been putting it off this whole time because I have the loosest attention span for streamed D&D campaigns. Unfortunately literally nothing in the world is more boring to me than watching a bunch of people sit around a table and talk if I'm not an active participant in the conversation ya girl needs visuals.
But earlier this week I started a new crochet project and wanted something in the background, so I said "fuck it"-- I put it on my TV and listened/watched while I worked.
I'll give my DM credit. Fantasy High absolutely does fucking slap. I'm kinda kicking myself for not trying it out earlier lmao.
#Seta Speaks#It's like. I have a loosey goosey relationship with Dropout-- I was a HUGE CollegeHumor fan when was 11#And that was in uhhhhhhhhhhh 2007 so as you can tell it's gone through some extreme changes between me liking it and what it is now#I'm interested in getting a Dropout subscription but I want to make sure I'll like...actually use it you know?#But FH has fully sucked me in I'm on episode 13 of Freshman year and I'm greatly enjoying it#And the good thing about Fantasy High that I haven't seen in a lot of other streamed D&D is the camera gets closeups and there's visuals#So it keeps my attention a lot better#Also I now have a decent amount of DND exp under my belt so I can follow a lot better#Trust me I've TRIED Critical Role and I like the show but the TTRPG stream BORES THE SHIT OUT OF ME NO SHADE#Anyway point is Fantasy High is very fun and once I'm caught up I will be watching some of the other campaigns on their YT channel#Brennan Lee Mulligan if you're reading this for whatever reason 1) please get off my blog and 2) excellent job I admire your work very much#Anyway my DM's gonna be so goddamn pleased with themself I just fucking know it.
