i've read quite a few fics about jamie and malcolm that focus on jamie growing up in motherwell or glasgow and the way it's depicted bothers me so much as someone who grew up in the working class council estates in lanarkshire and edinburgh. some of the fics i've read genuinely treat jamie's home like it's a slum. they make it seem grimy and ugly and unsafe and horrible. as if that's why jamie wants to leave his home, and not because of more realistic issues like his home life or family or a desire to go somewhere bigger / different. 'deprived' areas aren't horrible scary shiteholes where everyone is just waiting for the chance to escape. i'm tired of middle class people looking at places that look like my childhood home and thinking up images of crime and destitution and hopelessness. places that look like jamie's home are the same as the places that hold some of the best memories i have of my entire life. i see a scottish council estate and see some of the most precious people and experiences i've ever known because guess what. it's just a place. it's someone's home. not because they're trapped there and they don't have a choice so they're forced to 'make the most of it'. it's just home. you don't have to understand it or like it or want to live there yourself, but at least try and be normal about areas that don't look like your middle class view of the world
#it reminds me of high school when this posh kid asked if i was scared to walk home because of where i lived#scared of fucking what ??? my neighbours ??? the dudes who sat in the skate park playing gangnam style on a bluetooth speaker ???#be normal for two seconds please.#it's sometimes not even about the fact that those places are Home to some people. it's also just that they're normal places ???#maybe not to you because your parents work jobs that you can't explain in a single sentence and you can afford walkers crisps#but to normal people. that's just A Place#and listen i get it. poverty is real and it sucks. it's obviously a problem in most of these places#but in my case it was just how life was. it wasn't all doom and gloom and suffering and wishing it was different#that's just how life was. i still had good memories and nice people around me#as a kid i didn't think about what i lacked because i'd been born without it. i LIKED my house and my neighbourhood#sorry for enjoying living somewhere you clearly think is some orwellian nightmare for some reason

I've seen people say that Rose (Tyler) is haunting the Doctor's narrative, but they haven't really considered that you never truly get over your Scottish highlander boyfriend and the daughter you guys adopted getting their memories wiped by your own people and having to live with that guilt, which causes you to become more distant to and dismissive of your companions because you can't have the people you love be taken from you again because of your own actions.
You don't want to lose them, but you have to, because that means it's your choice, and leaving someone is a whole lot easier than them leaving you.

would you guys be interested in venom/the magnus archives crossover fan art
#I wanna draw the guys as avatars#also I think it would be a fun challenge to try to make Venom visibly an avatar of the hunt#because they already look like that#but I have ideas for the others :3#venom#venom comics#venom movies#the magnus archives#I’m going to elaborate in the tags because I can#so Eddie is 100% an avatar of the corruption#and is also the type of guy who willingly became an avatar#he’s so deranged he would be enthralled by the wasp nest in his attic#he would be a victim of the lonely though#like especially comics!Eddie#because his bond with the symbiote is so deep that like. being singular sends him into a depressive spiral#flash is an avatar of the slaughter#but he’s not deranged like Eddie his was more of a result of his situation#like being a bully and then joining the military#very slaughter coded#and yes he’s made up for the bullying so I’m not sure how that would play in?? but he still does have some anger issues#he’s a victim of the web#like one the alcoholism is classic web#and two being manipulated. like the whole agent venom arc where he was essentially being blackmailed by jack olantern#venom is a manifestation of the corruption#an avatar of the hunt#and probably also a victim of the lonely#like I think the idea of being alone as a being who’s whole purpose is to bond and connect with a host would be devastating#recently I think they could probably also be a victim of the desolation given that everyone important to them keeps fucking dying lmao#I’m kinda second guessing myself with flash because he’s just so damn normal like he doesn’t revel in war but I also want to give him one#do any of my followers know both of these. if so please help me out I’m struggling with flash 😭

#please ask if i need to tag anything#especially w the second pic#my art#my doodles#fan art#fanart#the funky phantom#hanna barbera#april stewart#these two doodles were drawn a day apart and I find that very hilarious#funny enough april is my go-to whenever I’m doing a warmup sketch or something#I just love how simplistic her design is she’s very fun to draw#I am pretty proud of how the second piece turned out#wanted to go for a style outside my typical norm#that and I’ve been very inspired by junji ito’s work lately#love his art style omgg#it’s a new year and I’ve still yet to properly draw mudsy sorry again grandpa#i have drawn him a couple times but they’re very rough sketches and I normally don’t like posting rough sketches rip

went outside and exercised normally for the first time since The Incident and i felt fine outside of the expected Hasn't Exercised in several months feelings. against doctor's orders btw but i would rather be dead than forced to spend all my time at home not doing a single thing that could exert me in any way <3
#:)#like it's so funny that they mandated i cannot drive leave the country vigorously exercise or eat snack food maybe ever again for no reason#fully my medical notes read like i'm in the managed decline phase of a terrible chronic illness even though i'm literally chilling#i feel no worse than how i normally do a couple weeks after a rough covid infection like babygirl i have no debilitating symptoms.......#PLUS my kidneys are slowly unfucking themselves anyway like. do i really need this much independence taken away for my own protection......#longterm housebound for a short term Silly Incident??? please be serious for more than two seconds#cranky about this because it's been a month and there's still no diagnosis but they have the room to tell me what i can't do#my appointment a couple days ago was supposed to clear me to do certain things again but they denied it and i've been sulking for days#literally the only thing wrong with me is that my blood tests are saying bad things and some really annoying side effects of my meds#and i can guarantee that me resting and doing nothing is not the reason i'm not in pain or otherwise suffering in any measurable way#even when i was actively in a state of dying in hospital i wasn't in pain like get with it!!!#sometimes if i think about this too hard i end up feeling like a caged animal lmao

I think Jack Kline & Abigail Hobbs should be besties
#they can bond over their murder families <3#Jack: I’m a hunter :3 || Abigail: :) me too. in a way.#just two very normal friends. so so normal#also because it is hilarious to me to imagine a situation in which Hannibal Lecter has to have the Winchesters (and their plus ones) over#Will is loving it. He enjoys watching gay on gay violence. or inciting it.#Abigail knew this would go badly. she is causing problems On Purpose. Jack is just happy to be here#are they eating people? maybe but that’s not the point.#actually no wait they figure it out and Sam & Dean are like 😨#meanwhile Jack is like :/ so? u were gonna let me eat angels? what’s so different?#castiel (hypocrite) trying to explain why. Lucifer (camp) pointedly asks Hannibal for a recipe.#Hannibal breaks his second wine glass. will is in hysterics. Abigail is so so pleased with herself.#if a fight breaks out she and jack r gonna go to her room and paint each other’s nails#spn#hannibal#jack kline#abigail hobbs

If I'm not reblogging enough 9/11 memes today, it's because-- and I swear to god this is true-- I am on a flight to New York City and the infight wifi is bad.
#9/11#my girlfriend booked my return flight for today#because she is the funniest person ever#if I die in a second 9/11#soneone please for the love of god#print out that doofenschmirz meme and hang it over my casket#at the funeral#y'all know the one#my two options here are die in the funniest way evwr#or have a normal fight where everything goes quickly#because nobody else wants to fly to nyc today#and either way I am vibing#acornposting

the sketch i was planning to do in like 15 min to test if my new USB splitter worked, vs what i spent all afternoon painting over the sketch bc i kept fussing things
I still dont like the final one but i really dont have anymore time to draw bc i have so many assessments due at once atm, but i wanted to draw byleth as the test bc im replaying fe3h
i knew i'd just use the same characters again if i replayed, so I'm doing a PMU (pick my units) run where my friends all voted for who to use. It's been fun so far, the small amount i've been able to play, and i want to draw more for it, if i get a break from assignments soon
#fe3h#byleth eisner#please talk to me i'm normal about fire emblem#i definitely will not send you 600 words of analysis if you ask me about the fe3h dancer#i needed the usb splitter bc my laptop only has two usb ports and i wanted to use my mouse keyboard and drawing tablet at the same time#was fe3h always so easy btw#im playing hard mode#i guess i've just been used to the promoted lvl 20 skirmish maps ive been doing in engage#especially bc im bringing low level units bc im trying to max everyone's stats lol#my art#fan art#the second one looks better larger i guess
