Shen Yuan getting transported into pidw isn't "the system punishing him for being a lazy internet hater," but instead representative of "step 1 of the creative process: getting so mad at something you decide to go write your own fucking book" in this essay I will
#svsss#scum villian self saving system#shen qingqiu#shen yuan#the fact that people think scum villain#-a series that examines and criticizes common tropes in fiction-#is somehow against criticism or being a little hater is wild to me#especially since shen qingqiu never gets punished for being a hater#heck- he's still a little hater by the end of the series#he mostly gets punished for treating life like a play and like he and the people around him are characters#(or in other words- he suffers for denying his own wants and emotions and his own sense of empathy)#I think some of y'all underestimate how much writing/art is inspired by creaters being little haters#like example off the top of my head-#the author of Iron Widow has been pretty vocal about the book being inspired by their hatred of Darling in the Franxx#I think my interpretation of Shen Yuan's transmigration is also supported by the fact that this series is an examines writing processes#side note- though i understand why people say Shen Yuan is lazy and think its a valid take it still doesnt sit right with me#i am probably biased because my own experiences with chronic pain and depression and isolation#but ya- i dont think Shen Yuan is lazy so much as he is deeply lonely and feels purposeless after denying parts of himself for 20ish years#like yall remember the online fandom boom from covid right?#being stuck completely alone in bed while feeling like shit for 20 days straight does shit to your brain#the fact that no one came to check on him + he wasn't exactly upset about leaving anyone behind supports the isolation interpretation too#+in the skinner demon arc he describes his life of being a faker/inability to stop being a faker now that he's Shen Qingqiu#as “so bland he's tempted to throw salt on himself” and “all he could do is lay around and wait for death” (<-paraphrasing)#bro wants to be doing stuff but is stuck in paralysis from repeatedly following scrips made by other people#another point on “Shen Yuan isn’t lazy” is just the sheer amount of studying that man does#also he did graduate college- how lazy can he really be#he doesnt know what hes doing but he at least tries to actively train his students#and he actually works on improving his own cultivation + spends quite a bit of time preping the mushroom body thing#+he's experiencing bouts of debilitating chronic pain throughout all this#but ya tldr: Shen Yuan's transmigration is an encouragement to write and not a punishment and also i dont think its fair to call him lazy

emotional support wolf meets too-shy-to-live sneetah
#this particular image has not left my head since its conception and now i have finally drawn it#for those who don't know:#cheetahs are actually anxious AF and suck at functioning in captive environments#so some zoos have had success giving them Companion Dogs#friend dog is not nervous?? ah. then i do not nervous. i continue eat#i can't remember if this companion dog thing was supposed to also boost the cheetah breeding rate??#i might be mixing them up with pandas#now i'm just imagining the zookeepers introducing a mate for yakumo and he just looks to garu for affirmation#and garu is like 👍😄👍 in the background#so yakumo (newly encouraged) tentatively slinks away with the new addition#yaku sneetah with loooong limbs and ungainly large paws. yeah. shoulda made the paws bigger actually. MORE ungainly#actually.... should put karu in there too... TWO companion wolves...#they flank yakumo while he's eating so he feels secure LOL#there's another photo i saw of a cheetah and dog chillin with their trainers or whatnot#and the dog is SOAKING up the attention. splooting on the ground. happy as can be#and the cheetah is just awkwardly standing on the table like. help me. who are you people. i do not want to be here#*smooshes yakugaru together* THEY ARE!!! HELPING EACH OTHER!! BE BRAVE!!!!!!!!#nu carnival yakumo#nu carnival garu#yakugaru

Friendly reminder: just because someone participates in a kink space doesn't mean they want kink directed at them personally. Just because you've talked with someone before, whether about kink or not, doesn't mean they want kink directed at them personally or that they want to get kinky with you. Even with someone who you've had kinky interactions with in the past, it's always a good idea to ask first if they're in the mood for a kinky chat or want to receive belly pics or hear about your boner.
Because maybe they do! And then you're interacting with someone who's on the same wavelength as you and you're more likely to get the actual interaction you're looking for! And if they're not into it then you can skip over the awkward conversation or being left on read and you can keep it moving and keep reaching out to find people who actually are into it and interested :)
#Other friendly remember because I've gotten a lot more unsolicited explicitly sexual/kinky stuff coming at me lately that I'm not interested#I'm in a closed relationship but also this kink is very personal to me and it's all about a relationship dynamic#and it just isn't hot when it's someone I don't know very well or an anonymous person asking for encouragement#I'm not trying to make anyone who's done this recently feel bad like I state my boundaries and it's cool and we move on#But it's started happening more lately? So I'm just stopping in to say that making it a practice to ask people first goes a long way! :)

Nothing touches me more than when someone trusts you enough to share their Big Pitch. That bit of art they have been dreaming up lazily over the course of years that they one day want to give the love and attention they feel it deserves.
I hope any of you reading out there know how special it is to be invited in on someone's passionate project and entrusted to listen to this unformed piece of a person's soul and accept it and encourage it and be privileged to imagine it before reality starts trimming the scope of it.
Over decades people have shared webcomic ideas, fan-fiction, film scripts, roleplay campaigns and characters filled with intricate twists and reveals.
So many beautiful and wonderful ideas and I carry them all in silence. Thinking of them and sometimes thinking "oh [friend] is going to be pissed when they see this" when a piece of pop culture "steals their idea."
It's such a beautiful part of humanity that fills me with life.
I know how vulnerable it can be to trust people with those things. But my god it's such a good thing.
Years and years later, long after the friendship died, I still think of those passionate pitches. I hope one day I get to see one realized.
#camden posting#personal#I truly hope this is relatable#people deserve to be heard and encouraged#and I imagine it would be such a compliment to friends we knew in England that I still remember#that it still means something

people who act like messy, sketch and doodle are negative descriptors for art shuuush they are my most beloved and beautiful friends
#the very backbone of my art style tbh#also if someone IS using these words to diminish their work#then please don't scold them about it!!! just say the art is nice. that simple#i remember in my early years feeling ashamed/really stupid because calling my work 'a doodle' would get more attention than the art itself#and while people meant well it never encouraged me to be told 'shut up this isnt a doodle' by several people at once phhss#anyways sorry everytime i see popular qrts on twitter like 'YOU CALL THIS A SKETCH!??' i get flashbacks lol#also these are just beautiful words to describe art!! hearts over my head at the very sound

he literally sews his kids stupid little outfits from scratch does anyone even fucking care
#tmnt#i could talk about this for hours but it pisses me off so bad when people ON MY OWN POSTS are like ooh splinter is neglectful he suuucks#shut up you idiot everything he does is for them he would kill himself in a heartbeat for them#the fact that they even survived past infancy in their circumstances is a testament to phenomenal parenting by any realistic human standard#it's just that a) it's a show about the ninja turtles so of course they're going to have a lot of unsupervised escapades#& it's not fair to read THAT much into his absence b) they are older kids at this point & it's perfectly reasonable for a group of 13-17 y/#s to go to the grocery store without a chaperone and c) his strained relationship with his grandpa heavily informs his approach to parentin#so he thinks that smothering too much at this age will drive them away & he wants to encourage their blossoming independence as much as#possible because that's what he craved at that age#and it's so clear in every flashback that he was a constant nurturing & encouraging presence in their childhood & he misses the days when#they really relied on him hence piebald#and he WANTS to spend time with them he really does. he begged to be in their family band he has to excruciatingly hold himself back from#following them on their adventures at times but again he doesn't want to smother them at this age so he finds other outlets#remember when he bought a 20$ cup of lemonade from raph & leo because he didnt want them to be sad that they got no customers in their#Sewer lemonade stand#he loves them more than anything he's just weird and autistic about it okay. shut up. Shut the fuck up#not really relevant but his room is so baller i'd spend all my time here if this was my room. minifridge and everything

I just need to be told "You Can Do It" right now.
#I've gotten about 3 hours of sleep within the last 48 hours and I'm still behind in my classes#I don't know how I'm supposed to keep up at this point#Just grinding constantly for hours every waking moment of my life#I'm stuck wondering the same things#'When will it slow down?'... 'Will it actually ever slow down?'#If it doesn't i don't think i can keep up#Full time in college and full time in work#However#every time i try to speak my troubles or stress to someone they just chuckle#and ignore me saying ''well college is like that. welcome to the adult world''#Why does college have to be like this? why is everyone so fine with this?#I'm very unmotivated right now#My grades are all low despite the numerous 100%s I've been getting#And they're not going back up no matter how many A+ s I get on assignments#I don't like talking to people - it scares me terribly#So i don't like it when I'm constantly forced to talk to over 10 people every time i go to school (talk to your professor they say#I like to think of my job at my second home#at least that's not too hard and i love the people#But I just need things to get less intense school-wise#Just for me to get a decent amount of sleep please#Just a little bit#Please#i don't know#I'm not going on hiatus no worries#I love my blog dearly and cannot abandon it for my mental health#I just need encouragement#Because I'm so tired#Sorry for the rant I hate to vent#I'll delete this later if i remember#💬

How am I supposed to do lore stuff on my Sprout Blog… If I’m getting 300 anon asks trying to give people the Eiffel Tower, 3056 explosive items, Mental Torment, and- WHATEVER ELSE… 😭
#‼���This is all Lighthearted btw! It’s just-#You could interrogate Sprout about Strawberries… Dandy about Flowers… Glisten about his face… Connie on how her powers work…#Cosmo on whether he has a crush on Sprout… Sprout on why he would glare at anons for asking Cosmo things like that…#Remember Vee or Flutter or Pebble exist…#WHY ARE THEY SENDING ME ALIEN EGGS AND OXYGENATED GLITTER 😭#You could dig into why Dandy is uncomfortable- Ask the dumbest random question your brain can think of…#How do I encourage people to interact with the Toons?#<Like.. Directly. Ask them questions instead of giving them 200 pounds of flour…#lilytheHELP#<And I mean those last four letters btw. Like actually what am I supposed to do-#NOT TO MENTION MY BRAIN IS BLANKING A LOT WITH THESE MAGIC ASKS ; u;#; o ;

they're right about drinking water and sunlight and exercising and eating healthy btw
#angel posts#which is obv when you think about it for three seconds kajshdlfkajsf#and i dont want to take the angry judgemental tone that someitmes people w these health posts take#even if their main argument is right#because yeah encouraging others to eat what they want when they want all the time is partly why#some people dont end up taking care of tehmselves. you need a vegetab#*veggie n stuff#i remember it was popular for a while to say that to buck diet culture and thats true!#but you still need to drink water you just#gotta go about it in a way that isn't unhealthy like diet culture

#monster hunter#monhun#sorry i just got a video in my yt recs and remembered how people treat her#god forbid a woman npc repeat a voiceline more than twice to encourage the player to continue the main quest#in the exact same way that npcs like field team leader and admiral will do if theyre helping with a story quest#she did literally nothing wrong you all are just violently misogynistic#gamers when a man is mildly annoying and pestering: yeah whatever man its fine#gamers when a woman is mildly annoying: i think she should be violently killed to death. i tgink she should burn in hell forever#played the game and literally had no idea other people hated her until i went online. like i loved her. shes just like me fr

Ghost (the band) fans are so nice wtf. Went to my local merch store to buy a tshirt to wear to see Rite Here Rite Now and the cashier told me I made a good choice and showed me his Ghost tattoo on his leg as we had a nice little conversation about the band and going to the cinema to see them and how he hasn’t got tickets yet but it’s selling out fast 😭
Then I went back to the shop later on with a friend and they were playing Dance Macabre and me and him spoke again because he managed to convince me to buy Ghost socks as well 🥲
#I may be in love#but ghost fans are too nice#at least the ones I’ve interacted with#I remember when mary on a cross was trending on tiktok#and they were all really welcoming and encouraging people to listen to more songs#anywho#ej waffles#nonsense by ej
