Hot tip: The best way to get me to not want to watch or read something is to do the thing where you go "Well, you know this classic story you love and means a lot to you? Well this is like that but BETTER!"

#I'm specifically talking about a post I saw about Black Sails #A show I know I would enjoy #But then I saw a post that was like ''It's a Treasure Island prequel''#And I was still in #But the post continued #''But injects so much more depth into the source material than it deserves''#Go fuck yourself actually #Anyway it's not just that #a LOT of things do that #A lot of really awful fairy tale retellings #Alice in Wonderland retellings #Myth retellings #And I hate them on principle no matter how good they may be individually #And sometimes the MARKETING does it even when the story itself doesn't actually

yep i wasn't joking on my last post

#why did i have to choose such an expensive hobby #anyway it's not just that #my camera was like 800 something #then the lens i have now was 120€ and that's the CHEAPEST #i feel like it does not do the job anymore tbh :(#then each sd card is about 20€ or more depending on size #then an external disc rounds 80 or more depending again on size #then the amount of years it took me to learn what i know now #then also costs of transportation and stuff to actually be able to go to shows #oof and then people complain if i ask for 20€ for gas or something BROTHER I AM GOING TO SPEND OVER 4H EDITING AT HOME #rant over sorry

'ao3 needs a like and dislike button'

what you need, my algorithm-rotten minded friend, is a grip

#ao3 #archive of our own #what.do.you.MEAN #how do these takes still find me #HOW #'but I only want to read the good stuff' THAT MEANS DIFFERENT THINGS TO DIFFERENT PEOPLE #THERE ARE HIDDEN GEMS YOU WONT EVEN FIND #also you know what you TRULY want? fics recs it's called fic recs but hey cant have that if you dont read THE FUCKING FICS first #imagine thinking fanworks are uniquely for your consumption and products to be ranked on a scale #ANYWAY it just boggles the mind

anybody else feel that being human is like being a long-time syndicated cartoon character watching the world get more complex while your own design stays the same until youre incongruous with the reality around you??

#anyway. boomer ass comic #we're just pen and ink scribbles navigating an environment built for hdtv and gradients and vectors #i was not meant to be seen in such detail #actually if this was really a boomer comic the season 20 rabbit would be like vaping and using apple pay #and the cashier would be on their phone scrolling tinder #kiwi arts #comics

writing advice for characters with a missing eye: dear God does losing an eyes function fuck up your neck. Ever since mine crapped out I've been slowly and unconsciously shifting towards holding my head at an angle to put the good eye closer to the center. and human necks. are not meant to accommodate that sorta thing.

#like it started with me just holding things more towards my right #but the things started shifting more towards center and my head turns instead #like. when im driving especially i have to keep my head turned so i can see on coming traffic #and when im around people ive noticed i position myself so my body is facing them and then turn my head to get them actually #centered in my now very right biased field of view #so anyways draw blorbo bleebus cheated to that 3/4s angle without guilt #at least one one eyed fucker actually does that

you can pry starting sentences with 'and' or 'but' out of my cold, dead hands

#writing #writblr #i dont care if it's improper im gonna do it anyway #it just feels right a lot of the time #my goal in writing isnt to be a master of the english language but to portray a feeling and a lot of our feelings are imperfect #writeblr

slow down for your disabled friends. thats like a bare minimum kindness that we shouldnt have to ask for. i love that youre so quirky and walking fast is a cool personality trait to you and all that but i bet you can count your physically disabled friends on less than one hand

#in a perfect world the move im gay meme would be about being fat or having a mobility aid and people just standing in your way in public #my bemoanings #debated posting this but itd be nice to have some solidarity where my mobility aid users at who have not a lot of good outside friends #also if youre a friend of mine who is worried that you might be the person in the comic im gonna be real #MULTIPLE ppl have said this exact thing to me and id rather you just slow down next time. dont come to me asking for forgiveness or smth #also straight up the person in this comic i havent seen for years because they were mean to me anyways

was thinking about that one blind professor post earlier today and how well it applied to the aptly named Team Dark

(really 'Team Dark' just sounds a lot cooler than 'Team Saves-On-Electricity')

#just another tally added to the board of reasons it's hard to imagine any of these guys ever entertaining guests 👍#the trickiest part of this gag was trying to think of who would ever visit these guys lmao #not the most social of butterflies this group #sth #rouge the bat #amy rose #shadow the hedgehog #e123 omega #team dark #comic #my art #doodles #sonic #sonic the hedgehog #is that really the general tag that gets used? which one of these 3 is the main one here a;sldkjf #anyways first time drawing amy!#I like her funny little shark fin from her classic design

everything in this life is temporary. except that fandom hyperfixation from when you were 14. that thang will be with you forever there's no escaping.

#eliot posts #at least that's how it is for me anyway #the old interests may wax and wane but really they're just laying dormant #this is currently about steven universe but it was also recently about carmilla webseries
