We saw Coraline on the big screen finally, and it may have reawakened an ancient special interest...

#we can still draw them from memory after all this time #it's kinda cathartic even with it all in all #we haven't been active in this fandom since 2010 - 2018 #but if I remember correctly we were active for that entire 8 years #I've no idea if anyone remembers our old art but suffice to say we've improved a bunch.~#Coraline #laika studios #Other Mother #Other Father #the other mother #the other father #coraline 15th anniversary #Retro Art #artists on tumblr #Otherbuttons #coraline fanart

I’m too tired to post an essay but my girl was just a victim of bad writing and a lack of critical thinking from the audience okay I love her.

#I’m so passionate about this #I won’t discourse with anyone but I will fume silently #if you just don’t like her idc #I’m talking about the people that actively hate on her #There aren’t many of you guys but the few that are #I am not very fond of your content (I’m sure you’re great people tho)#And they’re mostly in the Varian fandom #Like you’re few and far between but still #You kinda ruin it a tiny bit for me #The rest of the Var fandom tho I love you guys and you’re great #Keep doing amazing sweetie #Sorry I’m in a bad mood and feeling salty #Pmdd haha #tts #tangled the series #rapunzel's tangled adventure #rapunzel #Also if you reblog/comment trying to debate me you will be ignored or even blocked I’m not in the mood (no offense tho it’s not personal)#Just let me be salty #You’re entitled to your own opinion I’m not actually hating on anyone #I’m just tired

just thinking again (based on some of this blog's activity)... I felt it was probably worth saying that if you've followed me for Nicktoons Unite or Danny Phantom content, please don't be expecting any more. I have no plans to ever draw it again and while I've tried to be appreciative of the fact that ppl still seem to like that content, it does make me sad that that's the only thing that still gets the most attention on this blog even tho I want nothing to do with it anymore 😔

obviously I'd love if I was only known for my OC content but I know that's not how the internet works, lol. I'm trying my best but judging by the constant influx of activity just for Nicktoons and DP (and the fact that all of the blogs recommended on this blog are phandom-related and have been for 6 freaking years 😭), it seems like I'll never escape that being the only thing most of tumblr associates this blog with. wahhh

anyway. just letting y'all know that like. if you've been following me for a while with the expectation of someday seeing new art within those fandoms, you might as well look elsewhere because I'll just disappoint you ><;; rip

#i've tried marking some of the art as private but it doesn't help because it still gets passed around #its like. the dp stuff specifically is the only thing that ppl actually reblog consistently and i /should/ be grateful #but its just disappointing when i personally care so much more about my own original content and i know that never does as well #compared to fandom stuff #anyway #just some thoughts i guess #i'm not mad at anyone specifically i just feel kinda bad that i've grown a bit resentful towards these fandoms as a whole #because of how often i see the art show up in my activity feed even tho i dont want to see it #gonna actually turn off notifications for the posts tho after all this time because it's finally really getting to me #but i figured i'd still just let y'all know that i'm not gonna be drawing it anymore #spectre says #text post #vent post #delete later probably #im not gonna tag any of the fandoms but unfortunately this post will probably show up in the tags anyway #because it's in the body of the text kfjghsfg rip #oh well

this isnt what i usually post on this blog but I'm already sick of all the memes and 'jokes'. I am almost certainly leaving the fandom for good now because of the book of bills release and NO it is not because billford's community has an influx of supporters.

So the worship and romanticization of asylums and other abusive practices for mental health have been steadily gaining traction in recent years, especially with the rise of tiktok's toxicity.

SO many people, especially younger people, regularly talk about how they want lobotomies or how women they don't like should be lobotomized. They get tattoos of lobotomy like it's some quirky fun thing and not one of the most horrific tortures someone can endure.

These same people, ESPECIALLY leftists, will look at anyone they disagree with or don't like and say "get institutionalized, loser" or "et therapy" and it's always in a mocking way. it's always in a policing way.

because these people know that mental wards strip everyone of their freedom and their bodily autonomy. they know these places arent for healing--theyre for silencing.

So the amount of people i see treating bill being institutionalized like a good thing---even the writers and alex himself?

Yeah. Im out ✌🏼

#you people try to act quirky and say you like weird stuff and you like crazy people and hate normies #but then when someone isnt a normie and actually does want to change things in radical ways you want to put them in an asylum #i do not want to interact with any of you people!#i still love gravity falls (obviously) but im just... so over the fandom at this point.#even people who LIKE bill are trying to act like this is all a good thing #guess what asylums dont help :) they almost always make things worse!#so in reality if bill ever got out he would just be 100x worse and more vengeful than before! congrats.#Play stupid games get stupid prizes!#gravity falls #antipsych #i seriously dont understand why anyone things mental wards are in any way different than how they used to be a hundred yeears ago.#because they arent. at all. like literally at all.#they forcefully medicate you with pills that you dont need and that actively harm you bc random ass nurses diagnose you with #someething different every other day and ust give you a new pill for every diagnosis #i know someone who was put on antipsychs when not only do they not have a psych disorder but they had a heart condition and #nearly died bc of it. I myself was put on three different pills the very night i went in. they never #even hesitated to wait and see if i would have a bad reaection or if i reeally needed it.#bc why would they when heavily meedicating you makes you unable to think or reaelize what theyre doing is extremely unethical?#i saw multiple people held down and strapped to their beds and given sedatives for doing nothing at all. For simply asking questions.#I saw staff harass and mock and disrespect very speciifc kids (specifically the poc kids.)#I saw staff lie and try to incite fear in other kids and myself.#one of them told me the night before i was cleared for release tat if i said 'im fine' at any point they would keep me for another month.#and that if i didnt continue to take the meds (ssris) that i was overdosing on that they would come grab me in a van and bring me back #against my will.#Keep in mind i was here based off of lies. There was no real reason for me to be in that asylum.#So yeah. literally dont come on this post trying to defend asylums bc i PROMISE you i have more experience in the reality than you #ever could.#Theyre horrible and romanticising it even against a fictional villain is repulsive behavior.

talking about some of my favourite Canadian television shows that I watched as a kid and

oh my god Dark Oracle

I should rewatch that show now that I'm an adult because little me was scared shitless anytime I watched but like I also loved it but--it was a struggle for little me lol

#eprika rambles #dark oracle #tagging to see if anyone out there is also into the show or remembers it #or if it's even active still fandom wise #lol

i very rarely get a sense of satisfaction from completing tasks. ive heard people say this is an ADHD thing, but idk. personally i think i might just be bad at being alive

#anime life #i wish i could do something for myself but it just feels so hollow. like why fucking bother yknow?#i wrote a lot of my fic Book of Red Murder and then started to lose steam #and i thought maybe posting it would encourage me to finish it #and it did at first #but then there wasn't a lot of readership or energy around it #which like. is fine and not weird. it's not a big deal and it's not like it's something im OWED #and also i had. a bit of a mental breakdown and had to stop being active in the fandom #so now DEFINITELY no one's gonna read it lol #idk i feel bad even posting about it because i don't want anyone to feel bad or like im trying to guilt anyone about it #i just have trouble articulating what i feel and why and it helps me to try to reason it out #no one did anything wrong but i think it's still understandable for me to say that i was discouraged #when it felt like people didn't really like my writing. or. to be honest. me as a person #i guess the lesson here (if there is one at all) is that if you like a fic you should probably tell the person writing it

how many times do we need to learn as people that irony and hyperbole can be harmful because 'jokes' aren't easily distinguished from genuine thoughts and feelings until we stop rewarding people for speaking or posting about violence

like even if you're joking/don't actually believe that/think whoever you are insulting is bad/immoral/fictional therefore deserves it - ad hominem attacks always do more harm to the people who share those characteristic then the individual you intend to cause harm to or discredit

#discourse #long post #its genuinely erased so much of my enjoyment of 911blr knowing i have to check accounts or risk seeing bullying/hate #l like its an odd feeling to know that so many people in the same fandom as you actively hold hate or find hate funny against your communit #like tired of people saying others are too sensitive because we dont want to hear or see a person say they want to hurt themself or others #like sorry i put in the work everyday to not let my mental health backslide and to enjoying being alive and accept my queerness #while others seemingly have not #and i know the content i post/share is not all in the same circles as that certain blog and i hate that it still grinds my gears but #its so frustrating to see the cruel glee people have #saying things they would never say to anyone's face irl and only to other blindly devoted/similar bullies #like do these people realise that they are on a razor's edge between 'ironic jokes' and just outright bigotry and threats - like do they #literally the only thing seperating That and conservative bigots is that the bigots are honest about their hatred towards minorities #like a lot of people in the fandom seemingly still need to deal with a lot of intenalised homophobia/racism and just outright hate-#especially regarding queer men and men of colour #because i can not be emphasise enough #It is NOT GOOD OR HEALTHY to be a fully grown adult that actively derives joy from the idea of enacting hate crimes #like you can hate tommy you can want him off the show even want him to die like weird but go off #but its such a next step to unprompted talk about [a character i dislike/hate/dont ship/disrupts my fanon endgame] in derogatory ways -#with rhetoric that straight up is out of terf/rel. right/homophobic/racists bigots and evokes violent hate-crimes......#well i feel sorry for those people cause what a miserable life to spend so much of it unable to enjoy your own life that you target others #anyways I know this is too long but I'm just a very tired man who has studied history and education and working with kids i have seen it -#too many times- harmful words coming from harmful environments or creating harmful actions and thereby perpetuating the cycle of violence #also not super relavent but as Latino Australian i am genuinely appauled at how many people have in their bio they are also Australian-#while actively liking/reblogging and engaging with post that find homophobic violence a funny haha joke - as if activist in our country -#aren't actively trying to dismantle homophobic and transphobic laws regarding issues like conversion therapy #like I know professors that actively got fired for being gay while teaching in religious education context - and its still happening!#so for people to forget so quickly what progress has been made and how much it took and how easy it is to loose - disappointing #(and its the same people who wanna pretend mardi gras is nothing but a party as if 78rs didn't risk their jobs/safety/lives)

very minor thing I still definitely deserve a medal for:

being raised catholic, and now as an adult repeatedly falling in love with characters that fandoms like to declare catholic, but still managing to reject those headcanons because at heart I'm too much of a stickler for accurate analysis to get behind them when i know the person in question is really meant to be anglican/episcopalian/whatever other flavor of christian

i am being, as the poets say, so brave about it

#i dont wanna list examples bc this is just a lil vent post im not looking to make this pop up in any tags & insult anybody #bc tbh some of the worst offenders are absolutely top-tier favorite characters of mine with woefully small fandoms #& the LAST thing i wanna do is be rude about or discourage anyone who posts about/writes for/discusses them #just because i happen to have trouble getting on board with one part of their analysis.#but it does amaze me that this Keeps happening #talk about resisting temptation #& for the record when i say 'raised catholic' i do not just mean christmas and easter catholic okay #im talking 'college was the first time in my life religion wasnt a required subject' catholic #'virtually everybody i knew as a teen went to different single-sex high schools' catholic #horrible uniforms. strict nuns. classes interrupted for masses for even the minor holidays. joined choir for something to do-catholic #as an adult i still have friends & acquaintances who work in/for churches type-catholic #my mom actively tries to hide rosary beads & scapulars in my bags & car every time i come home catholic #(i dont even think most people know what scapulars ARE for christ's sake! & if they think they do they're probably picturing the wrong one #meanwhile i've got a routine list of hiding spots to check for them before driving away)#my point is.#if it made even a scrap of sense for any of these characters to actually be catholics trust me i'd be the FIRST one saying so #bc i know i could write the SHIT out of all the angsty repressed queer guilt religious trauma stuff everyone's drawn to it for #that's like the very least i could get out of having been up to my eyeballs in it for the first two decades of my life #but 99% of the time it just doesn't track w/ what we know about them at all im sorry.#im sorry your moodboard yearns for stained glass saints #im sorry your fic hinges upon a flashback to a certain sacrament #but im just not buying it

Mmmhh...

#(Basically rant on my last two posts)#I know I've said it before and sorry for coming off as annoying–#but I really wish we still had a central bsd blog on Tumblr like fy-bungoustraydogs or bsd-central or things of the kind.#I think now everyone rushes to post news first. And although there's merit to it in knowing news as soon as they happen‚#in the long run the death of this kind of central official content ***fan*** blogs is such a huge loss of fandom spaces‚#especially for the archiving purposes they solved. Especially today that T/witter and G/oogle have basically become unusable.#Literally. Literally. I've been doing official content archiving since I was 11 #(because that's the very specific kind of mental illness I have)#and let me tell you that the quality of web search and especially reverse image search only got worse–#in a way that is very evident and noticeable. Which is crazy tbh and not how things should work.#If anyone would like to start a bsd-central kind of blog I'll be the first one to follow.#Actually if anyone actually wants to establish it feel free to contact me and I'll be more than happy to share the resources I have!!!!#It just needs to be something multi-modded for a series of reasons I won't get into right now #I just can't personally do it (not as main admin at least) because that would be modding my FIFTH active bsd blog–#and that's a little too much even for me.#On top of some ethical concerns I have regarding whether it'd be fair for me to mod a fandom central bsd blog–#when I feel like I can't genuinely share the same amount of love for the franchise other fans share #On top of. You know. Getting a degree eventually hopefully.#Then years after the blog has been solidly enstablished and aquired enough credibility it could even open a free donations found to invest–#in buying and scanning and releasing bsd content that hasn't been shared yet like the guidebooks or illustration books or everything else–#for everyone to see...#The dream. (Is realistically never going to happen) (Won't stop me from daydreaming about it every day)#((Still salty I couldn't afford the guidebooks only due to the shipment prices. I *would* have scanned and uploaded them.))#That was a long and idealistic rant. Kyotag out #Edit: *Modding my SIXTH bsd blog #Apparently I mod so many blogs I lost count of them

nothing is apolitical but the mechanisms of a story even when not punished are not necessarily indicative of the author's ideology. to not acknowledge the fallible author is ill-advised, but to assume you know the author is foolish. do you understand.

#if i write a story about a character who believes that murder is morally correct under any circumstance #(even if this character is never punished for this ideology)#that does not mean i'm endorsing it. it doesn't mean i believe this to be true it does not mean i would find this person sympathetic irl.#it means i think it's an interesting story.#but if i write a story about an ''average joe'' the person i write says a lot.#what is their gender? their sexuality? their race? what is their accent? where do they live? what job do they have? what is their house lik #am i writing an ''average person'' this way because this is actually my idea of an average person?#or am i writing them that way because that's what i think *your* idea of an average person is?#or am i writing them that way to say something about the idea of an ''average person''?#and no matter what my internal motivation is i will still inevitably have unchecked biases i have internalized #my idea of an ''average person'' is shaped by politics and my own personal life and the art i've experienced.#there are things so normalized to me as default that i don't think about them and that will be visible to anyone who isn't me #anyone with a different life or different political ideologies.#but you will never actually know what my intent is unless i actively say it.#anyway #not fandom

some of you guys weren't raised on heroes (2005) and it shows

#you're gonna denounce the show forever just because it started to suck???? me age 11 (biggest heroes stan alive) could never #it's making me so sad to see so many people who were so active in the tua fandom decide to leave it completely #idk there's a place in almost all my favorite shows i can point to where it all went wrong #(heroes s2. chuck s4. stranger things s3. supernatural s6 but the final death knell was s9 idk that one's complicated.)#(malcolm in the middle kind of sucked after s4. teen wolf went downhill after s3.)#(the witcher and twd had such consistently mid seasons i stopped watching. only the first season of the flash was worth it.)#doesn't mean i was any less obsessed with them or that i don't still look back on them fondly #why should i leave tua in the dust just bc i can add 'tua s3' to that list? hell it's already been on there for two years #like the obsession isn't nearly as strong as before but i still look back on the show and my experience with it fondly!#i know i keep saying it but i cannot begin to fully express how deep i was in with tua and how much of an impact it had on me #no one is obligated to stay or pretend to be happy but like yeah it makes me sad to see people turn their backs on it #we had so much fun for a while! that's what i want to keep celebrating and keep alive even if it's in a background casual way #the parts that we all loved and came together over were great!#i know there's not much of a reason to come back together again or to feel inspired #but like. it's one thing to be upset and uninspired. it kind of feels like another to decide to leave the fandom forever :(#no disrespect to anyone bc i do understand wanting to wash your hands of the whole thing. i just wish it didn't go down like this :(#anyways. i love you guys and i miss being a five stan when it was easy a little bit rn <3

updated with ch4... i think after i upload this fic and finish my hsmn angst im gonna stop writing for a while (or indefinitely) because wow... haha

#egg boils #kinda feels rly fucking bad #but hey! currently sitting at 130k words published in total :) thats nice #it was a good run but idk its so difficult to find the motivation to keep going and i dont place a lot of emphasis on recognition or notes #or kudos etec etc but still. really fucking sucks when u cant help but prefer the ships no one cares about :/#its one thing with my art bc i know its not very appealing but with my writing its just..#idk im making myself sad so ill stop but wargghghjh #i could too used to being in fandoms where i wrote for decently popular ships i guess?#but then again those fandoms in general were probably more active than kn8 which doesnt have its anime airing anymore #maybe when s2 starts again ill get back into fics #sighs.... :( im glad i managed to get stuff out for hsmn and nrmn while i could though!#hsmn literally have nothing going for them past season 1 so i dont expect anyone to care about them after that #ugh.. mina... mina #IN FACT i think with s2 my already rarepairs will get even rarer so thats not a very fun feeling haha.

hi ♡ i guess i'm back? 🥹

here's a little life update! i think you guys deserve it after my absence that lasted longer than even i expected it to last ;( i am very sorry about that. i miss everyone here and bangtan so much, you have no idea. the reason for all that is that for the past months i have been going through a lot of things and changes in my life. there were good and bad things happening, time flies extra fast, days melt into one and i didn't even notice the past half a year pass. although i think my absence was unavoidable in these circumstances i just thought that you guys deserve to know what's been up with me for the past months haha i have received a lot messages and reminders that people remember about me and that they miss me and i just want to send all of you my biggest apologies for leaving you for so long with no response, as well as all my love and gratitude! 🥺 i think i've been always fairly transparent on here so if anyone wanted to know more I'll leave some more details in the tags but basically I just hope that soon i will be able to become more active again and respond to messages ❤️❤️❤️ i hope everyone is doing great 🥰

#honestly... it was yoongi's comeback that made it happen. that made me have motivation to come back. i didnt expect it but here we are LOL #because for the past months i have been struggling a lot and i almost lost all the connections with my friends family and bangtan #i lost all my feelings and thoughts #i didnt miss anyone i didnt want to do anything i didnt want to be anywhere. i was completely submerged into my own head #i still am. it didnt exactly get better but.. its just yoongis impact jasbhdjdjd he made me remeber a lot #in october last year i developed a very agressive eating disorder and its gotten a lot worse at the begging of this year #and it has taken everything from me. it sucked me dry and still continues to do so. it made my mental health so much worse on every level #but im still here and thats what matters in the end right ❤️#from the good things - after long unfortunate and very stressful job hunting i finally got a stable job 🥰 and i continue my uni so far #that's why i was absent here most of the time. i decided to focus on my life and on trying to change something and to fight a little more #after jin's enlistment announcement... it was a wake up call for me #and maybe soon i will be back on track but im taking things slow. especially that its not easy for me at all #but i just wanted you to know that theres been a lot happening here so ❤️ im not just getting bored of tumblr and bts haha #i never stopped following the fandom i never turned off my notifications from media i never stopped looking up what they're up to each day #i just didnt have time and motivation to be active. because of my health i wanted to be quiet and away from eveyone and everything :/#even from my comfort people and activities #that sounds sad but. it's alright so please don't worry about me ❤️ I'm holding on just fine. got used to some things ❤️ trying to heal #so yeah i think thats that haha i think its enough and all basically #it may seem like very little but my life has always been very slow when it comes to big actions haha #anyway. love you all so much ❤️ thank you for not forgetting about me ❤️#soon i will try to answer some mesdages from my inbox. please wait for me just a little bit more ❤️ im very overworked right now #but im so sorry that you have to wait so long ❤️

Thinking about all the women I ship dazai with while You shake and shit and cry. ❤️❤️

I'm -

Anon, please, I love you.

But also, wrong blog. Do you not understand how annoyingly I've tag spammed other posts "i dont do ships buuuut..."?

Wait wait wait wait....i just realised after typing in my tags but - but WHAT women?? There's only like....4 viable women to ship Dazai with in this manga....what women??

#i was just going to block but i realised i wanted to frame my very first anon hate #its like am i a popular blog enough for this? do i deserve such a rite of passage?#especially when im not really active lately...but ah screw it #anyway more anon hates WILL be blocked this was for my personal pleasure #it was relatively tame but sorry to anyone who is uncomfortable seeing this stuff #but yeah. i guess ive been invited to openly ramble about why i don't do ships but kinda still find it fun #i mean theres a lot of reasons why fandom shipping doesnt really vibe well with me #but mostly its just that i enjoy looking at things in a way that the author has obviously presented itself to us #like you hear a LOT about...political/economic/queer/racial and so on subtext a lot #and i find that fascinating to employ as an exercise (and in turn find it really cool when others do that for their ships)#buuuuut im in fandoms to have fun and shipping is interesting to see and yeah even fun to do #and you know its not really about looking at stuff as presented by canon #but au-ing in a similar but opposite direction?#in the end i guess you could say im indifferent to shipping but simultaneously find it really interesting #no big reason that i want to share now that i think about it #but anyway that said please dont inflict dazai on women. so many ladies have tried to kill him because of it #anyway i dont think this would be complete without the....#i dont ship stuff but this us fun!! >:DDD #spitting nonsense #we spat nonsense together anon <3 #and reiterating warning that any other anons like this'll be blocked

Jokes on you I followed you for your Inscryption art!

Btw you have a great art style ❤

Thank you sticking around cuz im not even making inscryption fanart either rn. If ppl follow me despite that im changing interest and just like to see my art in general it just means a lot to me thank you sm

#its weird but one time someone said on my art that despite not shipping the two characters they still liked the art #and like even though it sounds like a dickish thing to say to anyone im litteraly just glad that theres ppl dont just follow me #just bc they want to see me draw a ship that they like and actively enjoy my art outside of that fandom sphere #idk #also dont worry you didnt sound like this anon it just reminded me of that completely separately #thank you again
