#and still be there to take our hand

As gen-AI becomes more normalized (Chappell Roan encouraging it, grifters on the rise, young artists using it), I wanna express how I will never turn to it because it fundamentally bores me to my core. There is no reason for me to want to use gen-AI because I will never want to give up my autonomy in creating art. I never want to become reliant on an inhuman object for expression, least of all if that object is created and controlled by tech companies. I draw not because I want a drawing but because I love the process of drawing. So even in a future where everyoneās accepted it, Iām never gonna sway on this.
#personal#im still fighting it but im also a realist so Iāve accepted that this will be our future#rant#gen ai is fucking boring#I hope this doesnāt make me sound like a āgoing against the crowd. not like the rest of societyā type (it would be depressing if it did)#but yeah even in a world where itās considered totally fine to use ai to make art Iāll still be using my bare hands#because I like it and nobody can take that from me#if youāre a young artist interested in or already using ai. just know that the thing you rely on to make art can be taken away at any point#all of it. āand thereās nothing you can do about it if they decide to. it doesnāt belong to you

None of our hands are clean
[First]Ā PrevĀ <ā-> Next
#poorly drawn mdzs#mdzs#jin guangshan#mianmian#The secret meaning behind one of the jin members scuttling off is:#I couldn't make three people work out in the remaining panels and per my rule of '3 attempts and take a different approach' he had to go.#Sometimes there are meaningful reasons why something happens in the background. And sometimes it is like this.#Let's just say he saw what was about to happen and got out of there before mianmian started throwing hands.#Okay no more delay. The sheer boldness to call WWX a killer in a room full of people who wear their war body count as a badge...#It's about hypocrisy yes - but it is also about how the narrative shifts on the same action depending on the frame.#Because at the end of the day...the blood on our hands is still blood on our hands.#Both the deaths on the battlefield and the deaths of the Jin's abusing the Wen remnants are still deaths caused by another.#They are also deaths that - depending who holds the frame - are noble acts to protect others.#But it isn't supposed to be about who was right and who was wrong.#It is about the need to be seen as the victim to avoid culpability.#Because if you aren't responsible you don't have to be held accountable. You don't have to grow or change.#If someone takes all the blame then there is no need to reflect on your own faults.#We have to protect our fragile ego from the mirror lest it shatter and we have to remake it anew.#Horrifically enough...even if WWX spared the Jin guards or even never ran into Wen Qing#He wouldn't have been able to escape being the scapegoat. He downfall was set into motion a long time ago.#My goodness...What a deliciously tragic story Wei Wuxian's first life was.

Do yoy like their silly little dance
the inside of my brain at any given moment:
#twisted wonderland#twisted wonderland spoilers#stage in playful land#stage in playfulland#gif warning#gifs that bop along to your music warning#gidel is SO little#look at him compared to everyone else!#three apples tall!#i could put him in my pocket and still have space to pack him a lunch#this rhythmic is so silly. i love when we get a cutesy upbeat rhythmic right before everything goes straight to shit.#fellow and gidel: (dance around all cutely and throw confetti)#fellow and gidel: anyway now it's time to sell you#just the most adorable little kidnappers š©·#so glad they made an official gidel chibi because otherwise i would have tried to and it would not have ended well#i'm trying to do a meleanor right now and she is giving me enough trouble. she doesn't even have any STRIPES.#do you think the riggers got handed the designs for this event with all the stripes and swirlies and patches and patterns#and just had to go stare at a wall for an hour or two#'okay look people are going to see this on a small screen with a rhythm game going on in the foreground'#'nobody is going to take a high-res screen recording and then go through it frame-by-frame to scrutinize our rigging breakdowns'#'what kind of HUGE NERD do you think plays this stupid game'#(shifty eyes)

saying this as respectfully as possible but. Do not put fandom content creators on a pedestal. We are also just fans contributing to a community just as you are. We have boundary on our own work and thatās it. What I say is not and should not be considered sth the whole fandom should listen to. Iām just a normal ass person ranting about things on my blog. If it does not have a fandom tag for others to engage in, do not make it out to be me trying to start fights or addressing the whole community. Because itās not.
Iāve said it before and I will say it again, my art, my lore talk, is biased. Iāve never tried to hide that I view Marika a certain way and will always develop my theory following that base assumption.
Aside from translation stuffs and pointing out in-game items, everything else I say you can look at it, agree or disagree, and move on to form your own opinions. Just because I draw stuffs doesnāt mean you get to saddle me with responsibilities about managing fandom expectations. What the hell? Iām a fan artist, Iām the last person who you should look at for āleaderismā (?) WHAT?
I can and will be a hater in my own space, like I know sometimes other artists will just post their stuffs and not engage too heavily with fandom, and for a while I did try to do that here (because Iām already a dramatic ass on twitter), thatās just not me though.
You will get art and you will get my opinions as well.

#asking ppl to [celebrate different takes] is... WHAT?#different takes as in well I think she likes apples and you think she likes grapes. yeah thatās some fun discussion to be have#but different takes as in the fundamental of a characterās drive and personality??? NO#letās put that down very clear here#I can still read fics where Marika is cold and calculate and manipulative as long as I can see thereāre layers to it and the author#set it up in a way that I can see they got her backstory and build those layers based on that#and then there are ppl who literally only portray her as omg evil girlboss 101 letās blame everything on this cardboard character#then I click back.#and there r ppl who might not vibe with how i portray her and they can ignore me. THAT'S OK TOO. we r in our own space.#itās as simple as that!#ever since the dlc is out i literally could see the amount of ppl blocking me go up and im just āokā because i do go around muting ppl too.#that's normal fandom space managing experience. pls do that#lore discussion is for ppl to engage in so u say ur piece i say mine and we can continue or not depending on situation#but FANWORK? leave each other alone or be a hater in ur own space ok?#personal#also where are these ppl who have been defending Marika at... because if u exclude me#and some others i can count on one hand. where are these ppl?#ppl saying headass stuffs about the HS aren't even Marika fans or engage too much in fandom to begin with#meanwhile u can't even find one youtube lore essay that says anything good about her#ppl are even trying to give Messmer's mother position to GEQ for no goddamn reason#like where is this overwhelming support for Marika at cuz as the active Marika stan around im not seeing it

coming back onto tumblr after a few years and finding a bunch of new viewers who dont seem to understand ezekiel was canonically lying about remembering the timeloop is so confusing and honestly i pin it on the increasing lack of media literacy in the last half decade amongst audiences. but also partially on dean devlin being a little shit
#the librarians#ezekiel jones#like this is not a show thats going to hold your hand and spell it out for you this is not a netflix second screen casual viewing show#what show where you guys watching#im not mad im genuinely really concerned because its literally shoved in our face multiple times that he remembers the timeloop#if you actually are engaging with the show like its meant to be engaged with#which means not automatically taking things characters say at face value#its a show about curiosity and mysteries...why...why would it spell things out in neon letters for the audience#dean devlin cackling in his room cause people are still confused about this in 2025 i bet hes so evil lmfao#i fear im going to have to make an entire youtube video essay breaking this down

puppy fever, might be terminal
#trojs 5 which means we're 1 yr out from my apparent cycle of a dog every 6 years#its not that i dont have enough on my hands and not like i do so much with them i need another one but i#find myself borrowing a spitz to hike with to get the feeling of 3 and with how#troj has turned out it would be... very viable#on one hand she's stupidly well behaved and no effort at all to keep#but also on the other hand shes... stupidly well behaved and not the firecracker i was counting on#(my bad for expecting every sheltie to be a Sparty)#i think she'd actually benefit from having a younger dog around as well#Sparty is doing great but has a very different approach to life and energy conservation now than she did 3-4 years ago#flat out sprints to bite the trojbutt isn't top of her mind 24/7 anymore which is a little sad for troj#troj and melis jive well in that regard but theyre on slightly different planets and while troj has 0 real herding drive she is#VERY sheepdog in her play and social behaviour#ofc the question always becomes 'why do you think you NEED another dog' and i dont. and its not for troj no#but i want one. and i can handle one. and i think another sheltie would be a benefit to our household#ofc: i had planned to have a trojling by now. and if i intend to keep showing it would make sense to get one soonish#that could enter open class just as troj goes to veteran#and ive still sunk enough time (almost 17 years now) into this breed to want to take more involved steps. i still want to breed and show em#eventually#but living situation still needs to change and im honestly. still so disappointed at trojlings falling through im not entirely sure#what the next step should be#a blue or maybe pref tric little bitch from allrounder lines probably. somehow.

Headcanon that when theyāre all in civvies, Bruce still takes his kidsā hands when crossing the road.
#Iām 24 and both my parents still reach out for my hand when we have to cross a road#I think itās an automatism for them#because my sister and I are both well over the age where we needed someone to hold our hand to prevent us from runnin in the traffic#yet both our parents still take our hands without even thinking#bruce wayne#dick grayson#jason todd#tim drake#damian wayne#stephanie brown#cassandra cain#duke thomas#Bruce does this too. donāt tell me he doesnāt

Emergency Commissions! šļø
Hi everyone! As you may know me and my boyfriend have been in a lot of financial stress from all of the repairs we've been doing/still have to do on our new home. We're almost broke and we can't afford to buy day-to-day needs, let alone be able to fix the basic necessities so we can actually live in this house. My boyfriend has made a donation post if you're interested in knowing more about our situation, and now I'm opening ko-fi commissions if anyone would like some art in exchange for their support! Feel free to request something through my ko-fi or message me if you have any questions or would prefer to commission me through dms! And make sure to read my TOS before requesting something!
#commissions open#selfship commissions#furry commissions#furry comms open#Also please understand my commissions might take a little longer than usual due to us still trying to move in our stuff#as well as cleaning out the apartment before we hand the keys over#you're more than welcome to ask me for any updates while i'm working on your piece!!

we seriously need to start reevaluating what constitutes a āship warā because here i wouldāve thought it was wars between the fans of certain ships but nothing i repeat NOTHING any f1 rpf fan can create will come even close to the efforts the ships themselves are taking to outdo each other
#i mean come on#are we taking our cues from ao3?#what in the homoeroticism#forget max vs lando#its landoscar vs every other pairing on the grid#we really had lewis digging into the DEPTHS of brocades#IN 2024#this is a war people#the craftsmanship here is incomparable#pierresteban thinking#NO ONE can top our double podium and subsequent childhood friends to lovers sequence restablished#landoscar: hold our team orders#i need to make a tier list#still wonāt be as complex as the choreography these ships are designing#itās out of the fandomās hands now#charlos competing for the best after-race photos#meanwhile landoscar trying to rewrite sporting history in QATAR#just kiss already#all of you#winner takes all#jesus christ#i need to stop adding that as a tag to express flabbergastion#although jesus would probably approve#friendship is magic? friendship is WAR#the inheritently homoerotic nature#on steroids#f1 rpf#landoscar#pierresteban#charlos

said goodbye to him feeling weird!
#hes abt to go skiing w his friend im abt to go back to the uk to an ordinary life#he is perfect and I've felt appreciated none of the time and i think it's not his fault idk#not how racemic compounds work not how amphetamines work not how people work#french suits his mouth but german does a bit more i think . climbed to a very beautiful place#asked him to be my boyfriend then almost took it back yesterday. chemistry is not his strong suit#he carries things for me he catwalks he gives me his jumper when im cold he's good at kissing#he got me a beautiful necklace on a riverside in amsterdam he lights my cigarette with his#he holds my hand and his only complaint about me putting lipstick on his lips is that it wasn't evenly spread#his eyelashes are long and he's sharp and scarily productive and very good at navigation#always on time always the right place . i make a comment about being a beautiful collective and he says yes but it's odd that we havent#received the social benefits of it. what you mean? well when im alone or with friends people just...give me things. flowers baked goods#compliments a pack of cigarettes he says. he asks me if I've ever had to pay for a pack. i felt genuinely SO UGLY like am i. downgrading u?#ppl see me next to you and..what you get negative attractive points? gosh.#unfortunately shutting the fuck up is not my strong suit so i never let that go. he says nooo it's just you are So Gorgeous that you scare#people away. OK!!! he knows he's pretty and he uses this to his full advantage#you're cool and you're friends with all the club bouncers and you take such good care of me and you know#the state secrets and we can scheme murders together and i love that you love your friends#but when i joked we wont get to see each other in months and you said 'so?' that rly did smth very upsetting!!!!#twisting and backtracking is his strong suit but unfortunately seeing it happen is mine#and sometimes it's endearing and sometimes i want to kill him about it. he would be a very good diplomat#who the fuck stumbles gracefully on cliffs? anyway his voice is gentle and he says i don't want you upset#he holds my hands he says lets talk about it please i want you to know i appreciate you#he says all the correct things i believe 0 things out of his mouth and he can tell#i am snappy and terrible and calm. i tell him he's sweet and i want more i want to be missed#SHUTTING THE FUCK UP IS NOT MY STRONG SUIT! would you be ok being just friends? eventually.#and the next day ive decided what to do with you. what is that? you can still be my boyfriend. he says thank you.#walking is our strong suit so we go everywhere. i tell him about my best friend his head looks great thrown backwards#im afraid this is too good for me and I'm also afraid it's not enough. not asking questions is not my strong suit.

not to sound insane but i think about your paddy/augustin fic at least once a day š„¹ when will my beloved come back from war
oughghghgh ok first of all you don't sound insane! this is a very sweet ask and I am so happy you loved my fic enough to send it.
secondly, some good news! after honestly a good year of being too depressed AND busy to write I have actually started working on this fic again, and I am sorrrrt of approaching the end! there is technically only four scenes left to write, though how long any of those are going to be is kind of up to the gods. so, yeah, I can't promise it will be immediately but hopefully soon! I'm really determined to get this done while I've got this momentum going.
here, I'm attaching an itty bitty snippet from early in the chapter as both a thank you for waiting and also proof that chapter 3 DOES indeed exist
#sas rogue heroes#paddy mayne#augustin jordan#paddy x augustin#oscar answers questions#also if you haven't already you should read for peace comes dropping slow by crunchywrites to tide you over while you wait.#it's by my flatmate and in our minds it's set in an adjacent-ish universe to the little grief series. and it's a banger#also also i want to give a big forehead kissy to everyone who has commented or reached out to say they love the fic and are still waiting#this story would honestly have been long abandoned if it wasn't for you guys. but we'll make it happen. together. take my hand.

Becoming deeply radicalized against the idea of crewed Mars missions, y'know how the Rovers keep sending back better and better data what if instead of that we made an even bigger one and devoted nearly 90% of its capacity to holding a guy in a bubble on top of it instead of sending back useful data, but wait! They'll eliminate like a half hour of latency and also almost certainly contaminate the landing site and possibly the entire planet, so it's not all downside.
#At least in the near term it's fucking pointless and the downsides are very large and very big#Quite frankly it is extraordinarily likely that the first people to arrive at mars will do so dead#Because they will have been sent by fucking idiots willing to take too large risks#But the good news is that the wreck will spread across and contaminate huge amounts of the martian biosphere#To the point that we will quite possibly never be able to discern the history of life on mars#But if they live at least they'll get to slightly reduce the latency on our telerobotic fleet!#And travel home with the samples I guess#Good thing Percy's tagging and bagging rocks that we just canceled the return trips for#At least once we fuck up the rest of the planet those will be sterile#Kinda still excited about Aritimis but also kinda becoming anti-human spaceflight in general#We should consider not doing that for a while and at most focus specifically on living on the moon in a controlled and limited fashion#Ground the whole fucking commercial fleet who gives a shit those capsules are both gonna get someone killed sooner rather than later#And it's not like we're learning a whole lot by having people on hand up there#They spend most of their time trying to keep the machines from falling apart#Which is the main thing people would be doing for three continuous years on the shortest possible mars mission#Like you could send a dozen rovers for the price of one crewed mission both mass and money-wise#And that's probably a lowball estimate even assuming more and more advances in rover technology#Which are happening a lot faster than the advances in life support technology#Right now we do not even have enough functioning space capsules at our low earth orbit space station#Starship HLS is a fucking joke#The whole thing reeks let's just stop sending people into space for a while what were we really getting out of it
