hm i was wondering. do u prefer british or american humor (as represented thru comedy shows/movies)? (feel free to elaborate in the tags and/or reblog for sample size)
#ill elaborate in a bit#imo a lot of mainstream american humor or at least what i see exists in a sort of. edgelord/''snowflake'' (for lack of a better term) binar#*from the last decade or so that is#where u can either tell any joke u want n b as rude as offensive as u can on purpose OR never joke abt anything that can even slightly#inconvenience anyone in any way or abt anything that has ever hurt anyone which. im not a fan of either approach#n while yes while there r british edgelords (like ricky gervais 4 example) n a lot of popular stuff can b rly offensive#i think they generally balance it a lot better? or at least try n balance it? idk#bc at the end of the day anything u do can offend ppl. u just gotta try ur best to b respectful while still being funny#n im not saying that as anything against ''snowflakes'' or ''snowflake'' humor its just a different approach to comedy

Scarecrow chromedome is eating away my final brain cell
oh no same,, I want to draw his stuff next but I gotta get a specific vibe I want down for him first >:)
I do genuinely want to make him a lot more threatening than a lot of the other rogues, bc I mean come on, that's sorta Scarecrow's whole thing- Plus I will say, I'm sorta basing CD Scarecrow's demeanor a lot off his Arkham Knight counterpart bc I think he has such a good threatening presence (+ his voice. AK Scarecrow's voice. is so. damn. good.) Combining that overall presence with the stuff Chromedome sees when sifting through ppl's brains (like with the Sparkeater) is sorta what I'll be going for ehehe >:) I dunno it'll be fun to play around with
#it's a little hard to balance bc I want some rogues like BS to be a bit goofier with bits of angst#while others like Nautica to be much more serious#really depends on what each of their motives n backstories are#i just really want to play around with some horror stuff bc i think it's real fun ehhahehe#Rogues Gallery AU#ask#text

was kinda thinking about this when I saw Renee Rapp live recently-- I didn't know her visual vibe, I'd heard a few songs here and there but I hadn't really *seen* her, and her attire at Osheaga was really casual, a jersey (baseball/basketball?) and slacks. And that was so amazing! I couldn't help thinking, the work Billie Eilish has done for how women in pop music are allowed to dress is incredible. Seeing her up there all comfortable you just know that Billie walked in her oversized tops so that Renee in her slacks could run; Billie walked through all the critcisms about how she dressed slobbily and having to assert that she didn't owe anyone a display of skin, so that Renee could be comfortable and unquestioned running up and down the catwalk in front of 10,000 people. How iconic.
And I don't think we even realised at the time how much something as simple as letting Billie dress the way she as a (then-) 17-year-old teenager dressed, could end up meaning for a future generation of women in music.
Obviously there is still way to go, there were weirdos complaining about how 'plain' Dua Lipa's Glastonbury outfit was this year (in 2024!!), l have to ask, are you at Paris Fashion Week?? She is the musical HEADLINER of an entire day of music at one of the biggest music festivals in the world, and you can't grant her the space to exist as an artist, you have to moan about her dress not being excitingly revealing enough. There's work to do, it's still dismal out there. But the space Billie Eilish has created for a most ordinarily-dressed woman popstar is still heartening.
#music#rambling away; I'll log off#man. I remember how on the other hand when I was going to my first ever gig my guitar teacher said to me#notice how plainly he's dressed? No frills. His music speaks for himself.#(The musician in question was Slash and apart from his very recognisable hat and sunglasses; he was wearing a plain white t-shirt with a#minnie mouse graphic print in the centre. I think sometimes about how not even women in rock music are afforded that.#Like this is a thing across genres#With the exception of Franz Ferdinand for whom Alex has actually said in interviews that they treated FF gigs as nights out#and so dressed like they'd be dressed for a club night out--#most other guy bands are like *picked a tee off the floor*#whereas the girls in bands I've seen-- even literally just local musicians-- the girls in our local rock bands feel compelled to#dress like it's graduation day#Like we had this really cool local band-- singer's a girl in second year of uni#keeping up with the fact that they were playing like RHCP and Muse covers on stage; fast stuff--#she was up there in a delicate dress and heels and stomping across stage n all#and the rest of her band; dudes; were quite comfortable in their t-shirts#like of course she made a choice herself and was more than capable of stomping in heels--I mean I've seen Phoebe from Lambrini Girls#JUMP OFF a 5-ft platform stage while wearing 3-inch block heels. And in a party dress!#But then again Lambrini Girls genuinely are freaks of nature and I envy anyone who's going to see them open for Amyl & the Sniffers rn#bc that's an EXPLOSIVE combo. Nonetheless. I was saying.#Part of it certainly comes from a normalisation of just superhuman strength; balance + praying there's no malfunction with your skirt#which DOES happen at rock shows more frequently than you'd imagine. It's just if you're in a good crowd they'll pretend they saw nothing#but it's certainly more practical to gig in sneakers and trousers lol. From experience!#billie eilish#renee rapp#women in music#pop music#dua lipa#Also like Billies doing it for the pop lesbians#lesbian

There's something wrong with the planet.
I know, that sounds really dramatic. And probably exaggerated, knowing how much anxiety and paranoia is all but designed into my cheap fucking systems. It's not like I have much of a frame of reference, either: I only have linear memories of the last 160 hours of my life, barring the activation and maintenance between previous contracts. The rest is in bits and pieces, most of them ghosts of old feelings and reactions from my organic parts.
But that's how I know. There's a sense of wrongness in my organics, telling me things are different than how they should be -- how they used to be, at least. People keep bringing up the event from two months ago. I wasn't around for it, (or at least I don't remember it), but from my understanding, something fell from the sky, and now everyone's acting really weird.
They call it the Light of Creation, and yes, they capitalize it.
As far as I can tell, it isn't a power source, and nobody's considering selling it, but it's somehow helping with an important project. It's being held by the IPRE, the same entity that rented out my contract starting a week ago… for a two-month mission that's going to start ten months from now. They're paying for a year's worth of SecUnit for a mission a fraction of that time away.
I can't complain about that, exactly. Ten months of hanging around a bunch of boring researchers is a lot better than ten months of being a regular Murderbot, cycling between memory erasure and panic over the lives of various clients. It makes it easier not to get my brain painfully zapped by my governor module, too, when there are less crises. But it still feels highly unusual, and weird behavior is always going to make me uneasy.
"Let's run through this one more time," says Captain Davenport. Speaking of weird behavior.

#trapped in active depart#the adventure zone#taz balance#the murderbot diaries#finally gonna start publishing the rewrite. let's fucking GO!!!!#you would not believe how excited i am. to get. this thing into reality.#the old version is still available on ao3 for posterity ive just stripped it of tags n stuff. this ver is a total rewrite!#mine#balance#writes#crossover

I got hit by a huge wave of nostalgia and fell back into the Undertale rabbithole and I just couldn't resist the urge to make a Handplates skeleton lore accurate oc who I am pretty proud of ngl :] adawd
#funnily enough it all started with me finding a commentary of an undertale analog horror#and then i got the mood to play the game and sorta please my inner child by actually completing a true pacifist route#like I shit you not when I first played as a child i just got stuck on the final boss and that was it#i was seething#anyway after that i remembered that a good friend of mine really likes handplates and that I never finished it so I decided#to start watching it and now i'm obsessed X<X#and looking back it's kinda funny how from like my cringey sans fangirl era i grew so much that i can make a balanced and imo well designed#character. still when i was searching other stuff within the fandom it was still nostalgic and sort of heartwarming and interesting to see#how easy it was to impress me at such a young age. man T_T /pos#tbh Undertale holds such a special place in my heart#thinking back if i didn't have these sorta nerdy fixations and interests I would've probably just crumbled and i'm not joking. I'm glad#these things exist#anyway I should probably make an OC intro of this guy sometime#he's called Dr. T. N. Roman btw :] and they're aroace#also they're in a qpr with Gaster bc I love him and yippee#I kinda imagine these silly skeletons like the gems from steven universe (my friend brought this up originally)#like the idea that they have special customs and they probably copulate and multiply differently/asexually.#tbh this kinda skeleverse is steven universe for mlm people /j#auramoeba's art corner#thus spoke auramoeba#auramoeba's ocs#undertale#undertale oc#fan oc#skeleton oc#w d gaster#nostalgia#doomed yaoi

anyways i really need to get back to putt putt branch again bc i have this idea w how branch gets injured
i decided a while ago that my brozone parent, tulip, winds up just. up and leaving them one day, with no real warning and no explanation. she just puts branch’s egg in clay’s lap and leaves, with jd yelling angrily after her and floyd completely inconsolable.
when they find and settle at the golf course, branch goes to clay one day and asks abt their mom. clay hesitantly tells him some stuff, but is eventually too angry at her to keep talking about it, so branch doesn’t bring it up again.
later when branch is in his teens, he figures out that their mom left. it strikes a horrible chord with him, because that’s exactly what his brothers did. he spirals into a panic attack and confronts clay, arguing with him and saying some hurtful things. after spitting out an “i hate you”, branch turns and runs away.
clay doesn’t see him for a few days after that, despite looking everywhere for him. but when a little group of kids sneak out of the course and end up cornered by a territorial critter, branch is the first one running to help them. clay, not being nearly as good a fighter, is held back from going after him.
branch succeeds, but not unscathed. he comes back with all of the kids unharmed, and promptly collapses in clay’s arms.
clay’s very worried, ofc, but branch is taken care of. and the first thing he says when he wakes up is a frantic apology to clay, insisting he doesn’t really hate him and pleading for him not to leave him again. clay reassures that he promised he wasn’t going anywhere and he meant it and apologizes for leaving, and they have a good brother bonding moment!
ya!!! sometimes i enjoy the whole “last thing you said before an accident was something mean so you’re scared that’s the last thing you will get to tell them if they don’t make it” trope ajdhajdhakdh
#sketch speaks#trolls#trolls au#trolls branch#trolls clay#putt putt branch au#injury tw#i think abt it a lot tbh#im usually not into the heavier stuff in aus but this one gripped me really hard#i don’t remember. if i put other heavy stuff in my other aus. im sleepy man#but no i like to only put like one or two heavier things in aus n be silly to balance it out ajxbandh#dreamworks trolls#sketch's critter trolls

Ok so um here my rambling bc yes 👍✨
1)what if you play as Masha and you wanted to throw your item at a twisted but twisted Gigi being twisted Gigi yoink your item and it your last item to
2)idk why but I imagine cyberhaptic just saying 'gigi stop stealing my item gigi- I will throw at you gigi'
3)very unlikely canon- but I like to think twisted Cory just chomp on Masha arm now Masha is armless 😭 (if Cory can't have s'mores just Marshmello will do ���)
4)if Masha was in the game I would equip pink bow(for running away-) and magnifying glass or magnifying glass plus partipation award (bc the extraction speed is slow- :'>)
Woah gonna answer this one by one :]
1. That can definitely happen lol- I've seen plenty of OCs with a stun ability so I wanted the stun ability for Masha to come at a price, that which is having to sacrifice an item, so hypothetically if she were to be in the game she needs to constantly keep a slot available for the ability. If Gigi snatches an item then the second item is what Masha will use instead if she got one.
2. No idea who cyberhaptic is but I just searched em up and they do a lot of DW gameplay woah.
3. NOO CORY BAD <\3 Considering how soft marshmallows are that would be a clean cut.. I have an explanation as to why Masha lost her arms, it has something to do with T. Sprout.
4. Never thought what trinkets would work well for her gameplay wise, but the magnifying glass is definitely good for helping in machines. She's not good at distractor nor extracting since she's solely a support
#ask#dandys world oc#Tried my best to make her as balanced as possible#4⭐ speed and 5⭐ stealth is to help Toons being chased n stuff#thinking if I should make my oc and canon character interactions public#I made a lot here haha#like the elevator dialogues I mean#oc masha

There are two figures silhouetted against the iceberg's eerie glow. Both humanoids. The first is curled over the second protectively, and the second seems to be reaching back, trying to do the same.
Barry contemplates this for a minute. He's for sure not powerful enough to bend the ice apart, and even if he was, there's no guarantee he could do it without hurting them. Assuming they're alive, anyway, which is a long shot in itself.
But he's out here alone, and this floating mass of ice might float away if he leaves it alone to go get help. So, feeling a bit like an idiot, he starts whacking at it with his club.
A few hits later and he's being blasted in the face by pressurized air. Oh, shit, the ice was hollow. With that knowledge, he smashes through more of it, to where the two figures have now fallen limp to the ground.
They're nearly identical, and they've both got long ears, like… elves. Like air nomads.
He hovers awkwardly over both of them, trying to figure out what the fuck to do. They are both comically underdressed for the weather, in elven wear designed for the light, free movements of airbenders, not for the warmth needed by earthbound (icebound) peoples. But he can see their breathing, so shallow and fragile; they're both going to die if he doesn't do anything.
Barry pulls his coat off; adrenaline lets him ignore the frozen air for now as he starts shifting them so he can get it underneath, keep their backs from lying flat against the icy ground. But as he lifts the first one, she groans, and he startles, jostling her slightly.
Her eyes fly open, and she punches him in the gut. It's definitely not at full power, being in an awkward position and half-frozen, but she clearly knows where to aim: the breath is knocked out of him, letting her shove him away and scramble to her knees.
Then she sees her twin, and she grabs his shoulders. "Taako! Taako, wake up," she hisses desperately. Her eyes only flick over to Barry once more, making sure he's staying back. Slowly, Taako comes to.
"Five more minutes," he says faintly.
"No! Get up! We're at the fucking– what pole is this?" She asks Barry sharply, pupils in slits.
"The– We're– South pole," he says, wide-eyed.
"We're at the south pole!"
That seems to wake Taako up more; he sits up of his own volition, at least. Then he twists and stretches a little, and hops to his feet with unnatural dexterity: the grace of someone being lifted by the air itself. A staff flies into his hand from the ground. "Who's this clown?"
"I don't know, I literally woke up five seconds before you. Where's my staff?"
She climbs back into the broken iceberg to look around, and Taako looks at Barry. "So what's your deal, Bluejeans?"
"Barry– I'm Barry," he says. "I'm, like, I live here. What were you doing in a fuckin' iceberg?"
Taako shrugs flippantly. Lup stands triumphantly, a bright red umbrella held up above her head. "Fuck yes!" It's in impressively good condition for apparently being frozen in this iceberg for however long. As are both of the elves.
Lup looks down to see Barry gathering his outer coat up from the ground, and her gaze softens a little in realization of what he must've been doing with it. "You should put that back on, dude, it's cold."
"I mean– I've still got thicker clothes than you without it, s-so–" Barry starts, clearly shivering. He tries to hold it out towards either one of them, but she shakes her head and nudges it back to him.
"We're good, but thanks. You should get that on before you get pneumonia."
He clearly doesn't find that a satisfactory explanation, but he can't find the words to object in the moment, either. He awkwardly starts pulling his coat back on.
"Barry, yeah? I'm Lup," says the one that isn't Taako.
"You're elves, right?"
"Uh, yeah," says Taako, ears a-twitch. "What, you can't tell?"
"Uh, how… How long were you guys in there?"
Lup frowns, turning to Taako with a furrowed brow. "Uh, like… a few days? However long it takes to float here from the Southern Air Temple? Speaking of, they're probably suuuper worried, so as cute as you are, we should probably be getting back–"
Barry's too shocked to even react to being called cute. "There's people there?"
"Yes?" Taako says; even he's letting concern color his voice now, though his ridiculously large hat covers most of his expression.
"Why wouldn't there be?" Lup asks, rounding on Barry as her expression hardens.
Barry covers his mouth with a hand.

one panic attack and breathing excercise later,,,,,,,,, i think i need to write some of my thoughts down before moving on
first of all, as i said in the notes earlier i honestly should've expected something like this to happen. even if the king sounded pathetic each time we fought him, i should've kept in mind how powerful he is and that he still froze a bunch of people in time and was going to do that with the whole country, no matter the reason. but the most important thing to recognize is probably the fact that perceived emotional weakness didn't mean that it would be possible to convince him, didn't mean that he wasn't cruel. it's not like anything could've been changed with my knowledge, i just feel silly for walking right into that with no suspicions. well, lesson learned, can't stop the king with words
second of all - the king was talking about something called wish craft, saying how he smells the sweet scent right before that, and claiming that sif's using this craft right after. i guess this is what it's actually about, huh? not time craft, but wish craft? while i still know nothing about it the only assumption i can make is the symbolic one - you know, wishing upon a star? jhhgfk
but could sif really wish for something that would cause the loop, or is it someone else's wishing's fault, or both? even if sif could, i doubt they'd be able to remember. i mean, they congratulated themselves on reaching the 20th loop at the 24th, and i don't even know if it's a bug or a feature💀
third of all - no matter how much i pretend like i'm unfazed i think i still need to address that. HOLY SHIT was i terrified for a second there. especially for those few seconds when i thought i actually WILL have to watch everyone get violently murdered, with no easy way to loop back in sight...... the moment i saw the unusually big-fonted laughter i knew i did something wrong......... it was almost a feeling of amusement with how much i did not expect any of this to happen, with how unbelievably cruel the scene had became in such a short time, the kind of terror that you don't believe at first because well there's no way, right?
but i guess this wish craft is really a thing sif can control, since thinking about looping very hard really did loop us back! i don't think this was like any other loop, it was definitely directly from a wish. the king said that he "wished" to be like this as well, does that mean he wields wish craft rather than time craft, or perhaps both?? lots to think about
also, funny how sif assumed that loop is going to be an ass about this:
right before this dialogue option popped up i thought "i know you told me all about how the king can't be trusted but don't you dare to go i-told-you-so at me right now, that would be The Bitch Move ever--"
.........aaaand they did it! cool🙂 "rude to them" how about RUDE TO ME
#isat liveblog#i dont care what kinda sad backstory or tragic future plot importance they might have#this bitchiness is inexcusable imma stab them one of these days#anyway.........#the king be like “i will preserve vaugarde; the perfect country with perfect and welcoming people”#also the king when some vaugardians aren't nice and welcoming to him:#“oh well. guess i have to brutally murder you all to teach my compatriot a lesson”#okay selfish bitch that doesnt actually care about vaugarde or its people or anything except your own ego???🙄🙄🙄#you know what#tell me am i crazy or did our island only leave behind petty bitches???? lmfaooooo so sad#all the cool stuff like constellations and even all the normies went down with it#n the only things left of stars are the bitchiest star they could find and literal dust#rip😔😔😔💀💀🕯️🕯️🕯️🕯️🥀🥀🥀#okay maybe ill read these chars intentions with empathy and compassion some other time but rn im a little hater (rightly so) (deserved)#to balance it out tho: i didnt add it to the post but the way everyone was absolutely desperate to save bonbon </3#the things they say at the peak of despair </3 aaaah absolutely heartbreaking </3
