It took 3 months but I am finally finished!

#botw #the legend of zelda #breath of the wild #I knew I was up for a challenge when I started this but I feel that the challenging pieces are the ones I learn the most from #Also I wanted a botw poster for myself so I thought why not draw it myself. A little challenge ^^#It was a ton of fun! Never experimented around with brushes a lot #Painting stone was a lot of fun because I had found a brush in a previous piece that I just vibe with immensly for stone #which is funny considering that before I found it I couldn't figure out how to draw stone for the life of me #its Kritas e)_Marker_Dry brush btw #The trees took forever. The final one is actually the second try after I had already fully painted the once #I did a bunch of experiments with all kinds of brushes before I setteled on this and it worked surprisingly well #Then I tjought I was done and realised that I forgot the tower and these things are suuuper detailed #anyway it didn't take me 3 months of work. I just took loooong breaks because I got sidetracked and for some time forgot abou it #Or just experimenting #I am very pleased with how it came out though!#Never challenged myself to this kind of thing before so that was fun!#And I learned a lot!#you know what technically this is also #lu wild #my posts #my art #duelling peaks

It is actually good for children to see examples of different ways to live as an adult. It's good for them to have people with different experiences and areas of knowledge to advise them. It's good for them to have people they can turn to outside of their immediate family, especially if their family is the problem!

Sometimes when people on the Internet are like "ADULTS CAN NEVER INTERACT WITH MINORS IT'S CREEPY" I remember how, at 12, back in 1997, I was on the Witchvox forums with people ranging from me to people in at least their 50s, and no one there was ever a creep to me, no one ever made me feel uncomfortable or asked for my personal info, and when I finally broke down after a particularly brutal day of bullying at school and posted about it they were the first adults I'd ever met in my entire life who told me the bullies were the problem and it was okay to be angry about it.

Kids need to interact with adults who will listen to them.

#it's not essential for kids to hang out with adult friends but it absolutely can be good for them #when I was 16 and in higher education I mostly hung out with the older women there #and I learned a lot!#it was a good experience for me

Usamericans should be more anti-war actually. They should be straight up insulting marines and shutting down weapon factories, 60s anti-war protests kind of shit. I'm sorry for pontificating from down here but the US military-industrial complex is currently supplying a genocide, and this is not a new thing, the US has sold weapons to Saudi Arabia to starve millions of Yemenis, the Iraq war, the Afghanistan war, these are within memory. And though some people think it's not the point, it Is also true that there are trillions upon trillions of dollars that could be spent in anything else that go to the black hole of corruption (and call it for what it is, corruption) that is the Pentagon. Any of those resources could be destined to literally any other activity and be better spent.

I'm talking full contempt here. You should outright be HATING the military. Instead of lining up to watch Top Gun you should see it as a glorification of a fucking killing machine that serves imperial interests, enriches megacorporations and supports genocides. For the love of God be more angry about it. Goddamn.

#cosas mias #and yes I don't like my own military either before you ask #I like them just like that defunded and only there for humanitarian purposes if that #we learned a lot in Argentina about what happens when you let the military in power
