I already hate small talk a lot because while I know it is the starting point for human relationships, it also feels so fucking performative most of the time, but there IS a special circle of hell version of it where someone you were once incredibly close to (who perhaps maybe was the person who knew you best in the whole world) is now giving you all the classic small talk conversation points because one, they are very much living the performance of 'actually I am friends with everyone and I have to keep up appearances' even tho they were the one who dropped you like a hot potato multiple times, and two, because they are the one who hasn't cared what's going on in your life for 2+ years so they really only can ask the typical small talk questions because they know literally nothing about your life now 🙃
#about me#please ignore#I am just simply#going through it#I am SO TIRED OF THIS#I got the most generic 'happy birthday' message from her this year when years ago we would have a multiple hour phone convo on each of our#birthdays instead#and that was jarring enough#but I was like WHATEVER I am mostly over it#but now she is giving me the classic 'how have you been? how is uni' questions WHEN SHE HASN'T CARED IN YEARS#and I indulged her and answered#AND WAS LEFT ON READ FOR OVER A WEEK AGAIN#I never learn I guess#there are like at least 30 messages from three/two years ago where I tried to reinitiate a conversation and she straight up ghosted me#but now she wants to do small talk? NOW????#my best friend says fuck her and to just ignore her#but that feels so fucking impolite

donchta hate it when your robotic coworkers that you had a silly crush on get trapped in the unexpected collapse of the place you used to work at, only to have a barely recognizable personality that feels both familiar and like a stranger greet you when you finally manage to get through the rubble later and find them?
idk i think it kinda sucks when that happens personally :/
bonus:
#hello friends it's angst o'clock#i know it would end well enough but it was be so jarring at first. esp after seeing their previous eclipses form which was uh#much more volitile#this eclipse says and does things that neither sun nor moon would#but at the same time facets of their mannerisms and personalities shine through. different but the same#anyway haha look at my silly bonus doodle instead :)#fnaf sb#fnaf sun#fnaf daycare attendant#fnaf moon#fnaf eclipse#my art

Evening! I was a bit late for playing day 3 but when I did get around to it OMG CHEEA YOU HAVE DONE ABSOLUTELY WONDERFULLY WITH THE NEW INSTALMENT!!! The animations, the new sprites, the story overall SHDIUCSABSDHDBCA, chef's kiss! Day 3 is my absolute favorite so far!!! It shows us so many new and different sides of Mychael, his playful teasing with ruffling our hair, his honestly eerily threatening demeanour (honestly that one scene where he grabbed our wrist and yelled at us just sdiubciscni mychael pls chill bro), and especially tickling him?!! I was fully planning a frontal attack like mc had but he's saved by the kettle… for now >:3 I cannot emphasise how much of an emotional rollercoaster and how much I was invested into every single part of every single scene!! (i was honestly smilling like an idiot for the most of it/pos)
I absolutely adore mychael as a person because he genuinely feels so alive, someone I would honestly love to be friends with and just hang out about!! Gentle giant mushroom man with crippling social anxiety, mychael you lovable man hhhhhh. But in all honesty, that smack we did on the beginning of the third day is deserved. Sorry not sorry mychael but you have to learn to properly communicate, I will make it my mission to make you thoroughly understand how important proper communication is if you want to befriend someone! The little cooking scene too!! Honestly cheea, on every single meal time I always go back to see every single food option cause every single one makes me hungry, they all look so tasty and very scrumptious, and iusdhcisuadhaiusdh mychael you absolute madlad for learning all of these things on your own like how?!?
Thank you so so so very much for making the game and mychael cheea, no proper amount of words can properly describe how I absolutely love your creations. Please do rest properly and take the time you need to relax for a while. And please do remember to take care and stay hydrated!
Aaaa a a thank you for the ki n d wor d s <3 < 3 < 3 ,, .
#mushroom oasis vn#fanart#mychael ask#jar of fireflies#sorry for the short response i just cant muster up enough words to show my appreciation except a hundred million thank yous <3<3

So I think I might’ve actually posted those first two comic pieces already but actually who cares I’ve got newish Willy/Marlon (lovingly ship named SwordFish by my friend Sunny everyone say THANK YOU SUNNY!) content to share with my people and so the two pages are getting lumped in!
All three pieces were made for server events and the first two were made in collaboration with, once again, my friend Sunny and Sunny has a really awesome thing coming up for these two goobers (EVERYONE SAY THANK YOU SUNNY AGAIN!) that may involve these pieces so. Y��know. Marketing. Genderqueers in Business or something
#stardew valley#sdv#willy sdv#marlon sdv#sdv fandom#stardew valley fanart#stardew valley fanfic#sdv fanart#sdv fanfic#I don’t draw these two enough actually#OOO YOU ALL WANNA SHIP THESE TWO OLD MEN TOGETHER SOOOO BAD#me standing at my witches cauldron placing the curse or whatever#ooooooo#thank you sunny my co-parent sunny#these are our darling boys who we smoosh together like Barbie dolls#for giggles :)#also MAN the art difference is actually so jarring to me#the first two pieces were made all the way back in FEBRUARY.#crazy#time is crazy

I think the final couple of episodes of AOS season 3 are incredibly funny if only for the fact that Daisy is soooo fucking anemic and nobody acknowledges it at all.
Look at her. She has been sucked DRY. Somebody get her a cookie and some iron pills stat.
#she is literally grey 😭#she loses sooo much blood it's insane#they completely fill an entire LARGE jar with her blood#and then say that it's enough for 'today' implying that they've already taken blood and are planning on taking more#she literally passes out and collapses at one point. how is she still even remotely functional.#Daisy tag#og fandom post tag#agents of shield#daisy johnson

I love Jar of Mice! I've never seen creature designs like Thrones before.
You mention Ibis tissue in some of the posts, and I read the old post about it - has the lore changed since then? Does it have anything to do with the bones of God at Godtomb?
I'm very flattered! I don't think of Thrones as particularly creative but I suppose that's because I know all the ingredients for them... Actually let me take this post as an excuse to go into them a bit!
I extremely enjoy taurs and human "hybrid" style creatures like sphinxes a massive amount, but there are a ton of artists who's particular styles and sensibilities have inspired me. Coming to mind off the top of my head are artists on social media like Bwusagi, Suzumori521, Deerchip, Theveryworstthing, iliothermia, and definitely more...
I tend to collect a lot of art of centaurs, sphinxes, harpies, and dragons that catches my fancy, here's some of it:
(An Islamic depiction of Sagittarius, Salome Sphinx by Nicholas Kalmakoff, ????, Nagas by Rabi Behera, Şahmaran)
Edit: forgot the Lamassu, which is a more specific inspiration than any of the things above or below.
Jim Woodring is one of my inspirations for Thrones that people tend to clock, and they're correct. It's probably the colors, patterns, eyes, shapes.....
Oh and.
Her.
And for the second question, yes! The tissue was once on the bones, although the Ibis tissue used in the temples for the creation of dagnyds is much more equivalent to a cell culture than anything at this point. It's desire to grow and take form is the creative force that humans have harnessed to create dagnyds..... for better or worse.
I don't have any art of it i'm happy with, but here's some several year old pixel art of an Oracle Computer, which is filled with the stuff. Honestly though, I don't think "black goo" is very compelling or visually interesting considering what the stuff actually is. It needs work.
Everything always needs work...
#My art doesn't hold a candle to any of this tbh and i don't want to @ anyone and be annoying#Looking through the insp folder for JOM and its like...#pokemon minoan frescos manga medieval Islamic paintings moebius dinotopia historical costumes a picture of a bug... and so on...#i particularly like medieval things that veer into being very surreal combinations of anatomy#you'd be amazed what you can achieve by covering something in polka dots#looking at my pixel art from several years ago and being like damn this is quite good still#i could probably do better now... i want to get back to it#also i have not read dungeon meshi btw i just saw that art above like 2 years ago and was like holy shit that fucks#answering#jar of mice#misc#flattered ppl think thrones are unique i guess they're just a thorough enough blend of a large enough number of things that they don't come#across as derivative

The thing making me Feral about Judith Deuteros today is like. Her absolutely unfortunate attempt to declare martial law at Canaan House was the only thing she had to contribute. She is the ranking Cohort officer in this situation (she thinks) and like that's IT. In practical terms she's the weakest player there and she knows this; never mind the illest anime ill girl in the whole Seventh House and the three simultaneous greatest necromancers of their generation and Abigail Pent (at whom she is in any case strenuously not looking), Isaac could punt her through a wall. Silas is good enough at his terrible job that an actual Lyctor had to punch him out and then orchestrate that situation with the keys just to make ABSOLUTELY certain no one would ever listen to him. Judith is a competent melee support necromancer when in an actual melee. Judith can hold her own against Camilla Hect at ceiling chess even with a high fever, but Camilla and Palamedes and Ianthe are also there. Judith's cavalier is the glory of the Second House and their ability to work together is like... it's fine. It's professional. It's good. This is what peak performance looks like. It's fine. They're fine. Everything's fine. The hardware on her uniform is the only thing that's supposed to matter that she has and no one else does, that's ALL she has that she can imagine leveraging to get them out of here, and the way that works when your dad is the Fleet Admiral is that they give you everything you ask for and then you spend the rest of your life scrambling to earn it and she's not even very good at that. She has the charisma of drywall (affectionate/despairing) and all she can do to assert authority is fall back on the Cohort playbook and holy fuckballs did no one else in this bar actually care about that even BEFORE people started dying and all she does is completely discredit the actually pretty reasonable option of pulling together and trying to get out of this. And then Camilla Hect happens in front of everyone. And then the situation is REALLY losing cabin pressure and it's glorious last stand o'clock and her glorious last stand turns ugly and squalid and doesn't even help and she doesn't even get to die for it. She's the perfect product of ten thousand years of God needing cultural infrastructure for his genocide run against the rest of the universe, and she doesn't even get to Charge of the Light Brigade her way out. She doesn't get to die senselessly and prove to everyone that the rules don't matter anymore, because no one else ever really believed they did. She's so goddamn doomed by the narrative that it won't even let her die. Corona won't let her die. Blood of Eden won't let her die. MERCYMORN THE FIRST takes time out of a very packed schedule specifically to not let her die, not even long enough to come back wrong, how much more wrong could she get. She's the last kid left in Hamelin and she's opposite day Jackie Yellowjackets and she's a minor war poet and a virgin who can't drive and a wholeass Indelicates song and the most exhausted twenty-two-year-old in the universe and THAT'S ALL BEFORE NT9. Who is being happened to like her.
#the locked tomb#tltposting#judith deuteros#embodiment of “of course god doesn't hate you. he doesn't care enough about you for that.”#scrungliest dirt-jar kitten. bad-time girl. sad wwi military homoerotic girlflop.

I got curious about the difference between the English dub and original Japanese voice acting...
#gregory horror show#judgement boy#ghs#I need to watch through more of the Japanese version but most of the characters I've heard appear to match pretty well?#Gregory's voice is quite a bit deeper in the Japanese version but it is a fitting voice! Very jarring to hear but I feel most fans#have already heard it during Gallery Tour!#JB appears in Gallery Tour briefly but not long enough for me to appreciate the difference.#Inko is so high pitched...#I really wonder what differences there are in dialogue between original and dub... but there doesn't seem to be a subtitled version#(which makes sense!)#It would be interesting to see if there is anything that could've been translated differently or if the dub is mostly accurate.#I will likely see nothing of the sort though. As many joys as there are in weird obscure things from 1999... there are sadnesses as well.

Opinions on Charlie woobification? Also, do you think the fandom woobifies Dennis (too much)?
A few people have sent me asks about my thoughts on Dennis being woobified in the fandom and I’ve failed to answer them (sorry). Not for lack of interest on the subject, it’s just hard to answer. I think, though, answering this Charlie question in the same ask might make it easier to explain my thoughts on this.
When we talk about the fandom we’re generally talking about the people here, a couple hundred people on Twitter, maybe some Instagram stans(?) and tend to ignore the million (1,000,000)+ people on the subReddit and the huge chunk of people on Facebook and casual Twitter who are constantly, continually pushing a narrative that these characters have no depth, and thus their characterisation is what we see on the surface and nothing more. I think the one time it’s probably important not to ignore those people as fans of the show is when it comes to woobification.
Because at a surface level, the people who are consuming this show as a comedy and making posts that exhibit their takes/opinions on these characters to the majority of people portray the characters very simply: Charlie is an idiot and the best member of the Gang, in every sense of the word, and Dennis is a mere representation of toxic masculinity to a psychopathic degree. And those opinions are the loud majority.
So any discussion in our minority section of the fandom that woobifies Charlie or Dennis operates within and on top of the general narrative of the public perception (“face value”) of the characters. Woobification of Charlie, then, almost always further infantilises the majority of his traits to contribute to the idea that he’s not a bad guy and doesn’t deserve the position he’s in in life, while woobification of Dennis mostly works to counteract the idea that he’s a cold-blooded psychopath.
In a way, I think you have to woobify Dennis to a degree in order to properly understand his character (and Glenn makes that clear). Do some people take it too far? When it gets into the realm of genuinely somehow believing he’s not a bad person, absolutely, but in over a decade of Sunnyblr posts, I think I’ve seen that conclusion once, maybe twice. I really don’t think any post that’s diving into how Dennis' actions reflect his insecurities and trauma is ever speaking ignorant of the rest of his character, and that normally seems clear to the majority of people because rarely, if ever, does a dive into Dennis woobification cause fans to understand the character worse than they understood him at face value.
Whereas, with Charlie, you constantly do see this. Posts and threads and fights between fans arguing up and down that Charlie is better than the rest of them: he’s the smartest, actually, he means to do good, he shouldn’t be lumped in with the rest of them as sexual predators... People in this fandom genuinely argue that you are a *better person* if you’re a Charlie stan, that Charlie ships are softer, more moral, than toxic Dennis ships. The result of Charlie woobification seems to often make people less media literate about the character (and the show as a whole if we’re being real) than they would be if they just watched at face value.
They’re all morally despicable characters.
TL;DR: Due to the face value perceptions of the characters, woobification is an almost necessary tool for better exploring and understanding Dennis under his surface, while it really only exacerbates an annoying surface-level understanding of Charlie
#all that to be said. if youre woobifying for shitposting and fun have at it#slap cat ears on all those men#But ill say it clearly#the deepest truest understandings of Dennis you will see are from people who dip into the woobification of him#the most shallow worst understandings of Charlie you will see are from his woobifiers#dennis reynolds#charlie kelly#ask#if you wanna apply this to Mac and Dee just sub Charlie for Mac and Dennis for Dee to a lesser extent#also sorry idk if my answer was clear but no i dont think the fandom woobifies dennis too much#at least from what i see.. its just enough#but i see how it can be jarring to walk into deep exploration threads on dennis' trauma#with no acknowledgement that hes a terrible man#trust we all know it and are speaking from that#it just doesnt feel necessary to state

B-127 being significantly older than everyone else. B-127 knowing some of the older bots personally, having vague memories of what things were like Before, being surprised that the archives aren't publically available anymore, B-127 who doesn't remember his own age because it's been so long but he remembers enough to know Orion (Optimus, Optimus his name is Optimus now) and Elita are so young to be given so many burdens
B-127 is older than all his new friends. But he doesn't remember how he got to Sub Level 50. He doesn't remember what he was like Before. That building is new. What happened to the road that lead to ____? Where is ____? Was his cog taken at emergence like everyone else? Or was it taken later? Is there a reason he thrives with violence? Did he really lose his mind down there, or was he always programmed to be just a little stab happy? He doesn't know. He doesn't know.
Hey Optimus! You don't mind if I stick a little closer than usual right? There's just so much noise and colour up here haha. Has it always been this bright?
#transformers#transformers one#b-127#bumblebee#I simply think b-127 being older than everyone and having A Little Less Sanity is far more compelling#than all the constant 'what if he was a baby tho?' AU's#miss me with the infantilisation when instead you can properly explore the after effects of stir crazy isolation#self-aware enough to know his self made 'friends' aren't alive and aren't real#yet at the same time lost just enough of his mind to treat them as real people anyway#it's soooo fascinating to me I want to shake him in a jar

still on my first watch through so i am not yet a full-fledged true detective Understander™, but i love how they show us how rust and marty have become enmeshed in ways that, even after a decade of separation, they can't undo. like, episode 1 (1995) marty would never have said the sentence "father time has his way with us all," that's some odd shit, right there. But 2012 marty finds that to be a reasonable response to rust telling him he "look(s) like (he's) doing all right." and rust just, he still trusts marty to have his back, after a decade of silence, he tells him what he's kept his trap shut about in that interview, gives him the pitch on the cover-up. he tells him shit that, if marty told to the cops, would almost certainly land him a guilty sentence. without a second thought. he doesn't know if marty will help him, but he knows marty won't hurt him. anyway.
#They cannot undo what has been done; they are entwined by their own hands; time is a flat circle; etc.#true detective#rust cohle#marty hart#im so normal about them#rust cohle let me put you in a jar and shake it#that's a lie i would not put him in a jar i'd build him a nice terrarium with plenty enrichment#marty gets the jar#the jar can be inside the terrarium and on the weekends marty can visit#in this true detective hypothetical where they are small enough for jars and i am the scientist studying their behavior i would have ethics#anyway#shut up anna
