🦋~I want you to kiss me, I want you to remake me I want to drown in this moment of captivation~🦋
(I fucking did it dear god that was so many fucking layers)
#princess tutu#ahirue#ahiru#duck#rue#fanart#my art#this was by all means supposed to be a quick shitpost#but then I was looking at the sketch and the flats#and was like “this is bleak. dismal. i can do More”#so i did it for realsies and look how pretty it turned out#it feels good to complete something#i havent done that since like 2020?...21? i dont remeber 💀#and i can't lie i had fun figuring out the shading on the hair and skin#it was very fun#i mightve drowned this in way too many glowy effects though. i tend to do that a lot#but I decidedly do not care look how dope all that glitter is this was so fuuuuuun#if the lighting seems bogus no it isnt and bullshitting the light source is an honored artistic tradition. so#do not @me about anything ever#god tumblr nerfed the image quality so much#i was gonna upload this as JPEG but that looked even worse than this#well whatever. whatever#hitting post now good night IM DONE. 10 HOURS BABY I DID IT ITS A FINISHED ILLUSTRATION WHOO HOOOOOOOO

FMA 03 is the show of all time because it gets more difficult and traumatizing the older you get. I've watched it when I was 12 and obviously didn't understand how complex it was, but it burned itself into my brain anyway; I rewatched it when I was twenty something and somehow got re-traumatized despite it never leaving my memory. It can be depressing and mentally draining and nothing compares to the despair I feel rewatching it, but it's just something else in the best possible sense.
#fma03#fma 2003#fullmetal alchemist#look i understand that the bleakness isn't for everyone#and broho is popular because it's a hopeful 'power of friendship' battle shounen and there's nothing wrong with battle shounen#but boy does broho make me feel nothing after experiencing 03 and its direction#sound visuals themes plot points#seiji mizushima and sho aikawa were insane for all of it#the most depressing shit ever is my favorite anime of all time and it says nothing about me at all#oh and the manga was fine and i read it several times#but broho is too much for me

i’m so used to how you draw zelda that whenever i see someone else draw her it’s literally like. skinny person jumpscare.
literally being a fat zelda truther is so hard bc why do people insist on drawing the girl like she's never had a meal in her life. put some meat on her bones please god she is starving
#yeah botw zelda fanart is always like. woe. skinny girl be upon ye#and people on instagram get SOOOO pissed about the way i draw her its so funny. the comments are always so formulaic#like its always 'uhmmm im skinny and ur taking away MY representation my body type is beautiful too!!'#or 'um i just dont think you should be promoting an unhealthy body type' SHUT THE FUCK UP. FOR THE LOVE OF GOD#OR if its a man theyll be like 'um you made her look fat :/' like its an insult. like yeah babe that was on purpose. lmfao#and its not like i dont notice that people ONLY EVER get pissed about how i stylize ZELDA'S body. because i change link's body type too.#but i make HIM noticably SKINNIER. like gee i wonder why we have a problem with one of these but not the other one guys. lmao#anyway. im glad tumblr has so many fat zelda appreciators because things are fucking bleak on instagram lmao#and i do also occasionally get jumpscared by skinny zelda. like i KNOW she looks like that but also She Would Not Fucking Look Like That#asks

I just want the real world to stop for a moment
#everywhere its getting so much worse#all of the shit happening in america is so fucking scary#and the eu has so often proven our politicians take america as a good example#everywhere is getting more and more right#it feels as if we're all screwed#as if we'll never turn this all around again#ai is allowing misinformation on an unprecedented level#social media algorithms have power even the creators can scarcely understand but sure use it for monetary gain#and money is for the most powerful who feel they have the most to lose and thus want us quiet as best as possible#and war can be so profitable#im so exhausted#there's enough shit going on in my private life how am i meant to deal with that when i lay awake at night wondering how i'd mercy kill my#beloved cats if war ever ends up coming here and my roommate and me would take care of our own pact#id rather die than live through war#but i want to live so badly#my dash is full of self harming minors posting ana inspo#and american politics#and palestinian fundraisers#and honestly ive been barely using tumblr lately but its frankly everywhere#everywhere you look its all just bleak

deadbeat daughter gwen stacy is this anything
#gwext#& friend & girlfriend & mutual acquaintances & enemy &#she does not value the people in her life i think its laughable when people try making her out as somebody whos like pure of heart and nurtu#ring#does she actively hate them no but like she doesnt work to sustain her relationships or go out of her way for them in a casual sense#she talks to harry when she needs food or money or his connections#every conversation with em jay begins and ends in apologies#she is Never Home whether that be in her own universe or whatever she has happening in 616#the primary conflict before murdock dies is that he cannot fucking find her#/ and theres nuance to that like she has a Reason#everybody in her life leaves or dies or gets hurt because of her directly#she minimizes grief by cutting everybody out of her life and becoming solitary#<- along with minimizing responsibility or the need to live up to this idealized persona everybody has made of her#thats the primary reason for leaving e65#shes somebody whos endlessly flakey and unreliable; she doesn't have the Lets Keep Trying motivation#she Historically abandons things when they look bleak#she doesnt trust people shes known for years; she withholds information from em jay and harry and her dad#and this results in all of them getting seriously hurt and traumatized anyway#paired with like she really only trusts other variants of herself on a surface level#she wont seek out peter or mj or harry she will seek out whatever living version of her might still be on this earth#something something self sufficiency and self protection to a detriment#its selfishness and her priorities arent like#moral ones#this was a shitpost hi

yknow sometimes I worry I'm one of those liberals but then I lightly critique kamala while making it clear I voted for her and one of my friends starts defending her and acting like I personally caused her to lose and I realize I could be worse lol
#i wasnt even criticizing her primarily i eas criticizing the general state of the democratic party and liberals 💀#this person in general just keeps reminding me i could always be more of a lame liberal#idk man this shit just has me feeling a bit defeatist which i know is lame and doesnt help and i should just have hope and all that#and like im certainly not giving up#i just have to admit shits looking bleak#and shit looked bleak either way#this is obv the worse outcome and my heart sank to my ass when i found out but.. the dems are shifting further and further right#rn its not a matter of whether or not shit gets worse its just a matter of speed at which shit gets worse#anyway. im trying not to post too much abt the election bc everyone on here is getting heated in all sorts of directions#so. hopefully this is the only election post lol

okay so basically its like this. when your favorite tv show gets canceled its because the main character is trapped in gender purgatory and when it gets a delayed reboot 20 years later it means she finally came out good for her
#the ending is. less bleak than i felt originally but still really tough. im so depressed.#because its like. the first real progression that doesnt get immediately walked back.#from 'when i think about stuff like that it feels like someone took a shovel to my insides and im too afraid to look inside myself'#to willingly cutting yourself open and finally facing whats there. and even smiling while looking .#avpost#anyway im so tara from the pink opaque coded im going to put all my friends in the hole in the ground. for their own survival.#movie diary

My high school did a yearly poetry recitation contest (Poetry Out Loud), so Oh Boy do I know some poems. My favorites are Ozymandias and "the world is about to end and my grandparents are in love," by Kara Jackson. Also in 8th grade we had a Poe unit and had a class contest to make the best music video of the Raven, so I still know a good chunk of that.
i hadn't heard of the kara jackson one! just read through it and enjoyed it, particularly these lines > 'grandma returns to her love like a hymn, marks it with a color. // when the world ends will it suck the earth of all its love? /will i go taking somebody’s hand, / my skin becoming their skin?'
#taking this as a challenge to see how much of ozymandias and the raven i can remember. no i'm not bored at work what gives you that idea#i bet ive got most of ozymandias. the raven may be a lost cause#i met a traveller from an antique land / who said: two vast and trunkless legs of stone / stand in the desert. near them on the sand /#half-sunk a shatter'd visage lies whose frown / and wrinkled lip and sneer of cold command / tell that its sculptor well those passions read#...something or other i do not recall / the heart that mocked them and the heart that fed / and on the pedestal these words appear /#my name is ozymandias king of kings / look on my works ye mighty and despair /#nothing beside remains. round the decay / of that colossal wreck . something or other#the lone and level sands stretch far away#decay of that colossal wreck indeed (my memory for this poem)#oh well.#once upon a midnight dreary as i pondered weak and weary / over many a quaint and curious volume of forgotten lore /#while i nodded nearly napping suddenly there came a rapping / as of someone gently tapping tapping at my chamber door /#tis some visitor i muttered tapping at my chamber door / only this and nothing more#?? (it's downhill from here)#ah distinctly i remember it was in the bleak december / and each separate dying ember wrought its ghost upon the floor /#something?ly i sought the morrow / vainly had i sought to borrow / from my books surcease of sorrow / sorrow for the lost lenore /#for the rare and radiant maiden whom the angels .name lenore / lost to me forevermore#(then there is another stanza; bird-infested word bonanza / which i used to know at some point but do not know anymore /)#something something something door. darkness there and nothing more#oh it's the 'silken sad uncertain rustling of each purple curtain / thrilled me filled me with fantastic terrors never known before' bit#anyway. deep into that darkness peering something stood i hoping fearing / doubting?? dreaming dreams no mortal ever dared to dream before#but the silence was unbroken and the stillness gave no token / and the only word there spoken was the whispered word lenore#(more missing chunks)#oh i remember 'surely said i surely that is / something at my window lattice' because it's such a stupid rhyme#bird time bust time idk#ghastly grim and ancient raven wandering from the nightly shore / tell me what thy lordly name is on the night's plutonian shore /#a billion more stanzas i dont remember. except for 'prophet!' said i 'thing of evil! prophet still if bird or devil!#whether tempter sent or whether tempest tossed thee here ashore /' etc. wait you can only add 30 tags to posts now?? i had more raven chunks#ask#anon

ai is just so fucking bleak man it makes me want to end it all...
taking everything joyful about life... everything i ever wanted or loved or hoped for... and not just that, everything else too... no job is safe... the only way i can go on is to pretend it doesnt exist and just keep creating and trying as we always have done it haha but meanwhile it just keeps getting worse and im filled with sickening dread... the only hope I have is that people will continue to stick together and protect each other even as ai tries to destroy and take everything from us and our identity and our joy sorry to sound poetic and pretentious but i just need to get the vent out. its bleak man.
#im being vague bc im embarrassed to specify more but it just... the future seems so bleak bc of ai#and... this is just one small thing#everything about the current world and the future looks bleak to me#the only way i can keep going on is if i pretend everything is fine and the same as how it was#but the fact that i can even manage to do that shows my immense privilege#vent#delete later#sidenote i havent been glazing or art shielding my art (i never tried glaze)#because i just... i give up man. like im in denial. i want to just pretend like i can post it like normal and itll be ok#i want to blindly trust#its the same w me posting my art and blindly trusting that ppl wont repost#except ai is much worse than reposting....#ha... the only meager protection ive been doing#is watermarking but not even obtrusively#and posting at a lower res (but ive been posting higher res on here...)#hhaaa... i want ppl to be able to see my hard work and tbe colors#and artshield makes tbe colors ugly#cries#unrelated but i feel like ive been estranged from my friends lately too#so thats prob also contributing to why i feel so sad#im too old to be having a tantrum like this but isnt this what blogs like tumblr r for? so i can vent here instead of irl... ha ha

You know, I'm glad that some of us take the step to embrace things that we like even if they're "cringe" or "objectively bad"
But perhaps we could take the next step forward and embrace the idea of reading into books/shows/movies/etc even if they don't seem deep. Perhaps we could understand that the two kinds of media aren't either "shallow and meaningless so you're weird and brainrotted to read into it" or "incredibly and profoundly deep in every way so if you don't analyze every single angle of the thing then you're brainrotted". Some media is deeper than others, but all I propose is that no matter how deep it seems it's acceptable to dig into the thing and take the media seriously instead of just assuming that because of ____ thing (such as target audience or how cringe it is) the media not deep and will never be deep and everything good about it happened on accident.
#fandom wank#i just be ramblin#I'm not putting this in any tags#I'm just frustrated that Sonic Prime is going to be remembered by the bulk of its fanbase/people who watched it as a shallow stupid badly#written kid's show where the only thing good about it that we can even consider was created on purpose and is deep is Sonadow#I'm frustrated that when people learned that sometimes the death note creators did things because it was cool and not because they were#planning for it to be some great symbolism that so many people jumped from 'death note is a masterpiece and every bit of it is meticulously#thought out the curtains are never blue' to 'pack it up guys! the curtains are just blue! Everything good about death note like that#profound relationship I like and the neat symbolism completely happened by accident and Ohba sucks as a writer otherwise'#I'm frustrated when I see people talk about 'a kid's show' as if it's not gonna be deep at all or written well *because#it's a kid's show and then turn around and complain that said show sucks and isn't deep at all (even if that's how they're choosing to look#at it and they could see the care put into the story if they didn't go into it assuming that it will be lesser and shallow and dumb based on#what it is)#I guess it's also just getting me on this random Wednesday the idea that the bulk of one's viewers determine the legacy of a piece of media‚#no matter how close or far away they are from painting the media as it actually is or tries to bw#It's also just bleak (especially from a manga/anime standpoint) that if your work is considered profound and intellectual‚ then any reveal#of something not being deep is grounds for people to completely swap how they think of your work and how they see you as a writer#And any work that's considered 'not actually that deep' from the getgo ends up with people only engaging with it seriously saying stuff like#'I know nothing about it is purposeful or deep but I like it'#and just ends up with prevailing opinion putting down anything percieved as 'good' or 'profound' about the work as a complete fluke
