hey! as the first season of connor bedard gets underway i, your local indigenous hockey fan, have a request of you: please don't let this kid's sure to be marvellous and jaw-dropping rookie season make you complacent with the racism of the blackhawks as an organization. it is beyond heinous that they were able to secure the first overall pick this year for a number of reasons i'm sure we're all familiar with, but i am pleading with the hockey community not to let the racism of this org fall through the cracks.
they drafted connor bedard and handed him a jersey with a giant racist caricature on the front. their mascot is named tommy hawk. they continuously fail to curtail their fans' egregious displays of anti-indigenous racism at games.
i'm not going to ask anyone not to post about bedard. i know he's huge news and i'm bummed as all hell that i won't be able to enjoy the beginning of what is sure to be an incredible career myself. but i am asking, given that his presence on the team is likely to increase the prevalence of people making and reblogging posts about the blackhawks, that you please care, loudly and actively, about the racism of this organization and how much it hurts indigenous fans to see that go unquestioned so often.
consider mentioning it in posts. consider amplifying the voices of indigenous fans and community members about the issues of these types of sports organizations. consider reading up on the history of the person they claim to 'honour' with their hideous effigy of a logo. consider censoring the logo in your posts if you are able to (please do this if you are able to). consider tagging posts so that indigenous fans are at the very least able to blacklist that team and not have to see it.
above all, please just. don't forget about it. don't forget about us. we belong here too.
#gav gab#connor bedard#chicago blackhawks#i jsut. it makes me feel sick every time i see that thing.#this racist caricature of a native man's head on their jerseys on their ice in their locker room#a native man who had his body mutilated in death including having his head removed#it's fucking grotesque and it makes me literally sick#i was really looking forward to see what that little wizard boy could do!#and now it is wholly ruined for me#and i keep seeing people just. posting about it like this team is normal. like it's any other team#no ethical consumption under sports is true but some things ARE worse than others#and there is no justification or excuse for being a blackhawks fan in the year 2023. there just isn't.#and like..... it bums me the fuck out for bedard himself too#like he didn't choose this#he just got like. put into this situation#it sucks#he's a teenager and now he's in the middle of this whole mess he didn't create and isn't responsible for#and i can't expect him to do anything about it#but boy was i excited to see him play#and now it just..... yeah#well.

OMG EGO HAVE YOU SEEN THE BOOK 7 CATER CARD YET
80s britpunk Cater is such an incredible direction to take. his Sid Vicious jacket! his little british police cap! I wouldn't have anticipated that going full-on Sex Pistols would be his alternate self but it is SO fitting actually. 😭
(also th-the crown symbol?! the gavel?! is housewarden Cater real because I will TRANSCEND --)
#twisted wonderland#twisted wonderland spoilers#twisted wonderland episode 7 spoilers#twisted wonderland book 7 spoilers#twisted wonderland episode 7 part 12 spoilers#twisted wonderland book 7 part 12 spoilers#oh so we're just getting the heartsboys immediately huh#I AM NOT COMPLAINING NO SIR#god though. i haven't recovered from leona yet and already they're throwing this at us#c8ter the sk8ter boi#cannot express how much british punk cater is such a chef's-kiss concept though 🤌🤌🤌#like. okay. i'm gonna get into some personal character interpretation here so disclaimer that these are just my own ~opinions~ etc#but i read cater as being not so much secretly angsty as like...secretly just kinda jaded?#like i think him being pretty upbeat and cheery in general is genuine (or at least mostly genuine)#but he's also very aware of how people see him and he plays into that#like his personality isn't FAKE but he's definitely playing parts of it up#and trying to maintain a certain image that he thinks is expected of him#so expressing that as 'he's a punk undercover as a prep' is actually kinda perfect in my mind#i mean i could be entirely missing the mark here and we'll get something totally different#(in like. a couple of weeks or so. what the HECK twst)#buuuuut yeah punk cater is such a great concept to me and i am very excited to meet him!!!!#oh also hi tamashina-mina deuce you're here too i guess#alas we have run out of time so we'll have to catch up later

More MDZS and Hollow Knight! The cool bugs I found in my backyard have started to unionize.
Part 1 - Part 3
#poorly drawn mdzs#mdzs#hollow knight#mdzs au#mdzs hollow knight au#Once again not tagging all the characters due to sheer volume#Thanks for the warm and lovely reception on the first part of this crossover!#even people who haven't heard of hollow knight were very sweet and excited.#I redrew and redesigned some of the characters that people were asking to see#and while I still think I could play around with them a little more I'm pretty happy with the results B*)#JGY getting kicked down the stairs is part of his personality at this point. Of course I had to introduce him as such#Im pretty sure its not JZX who kicks him the first time but birthday boy on birthday boy violence is too funny to pass up#Madam yu being mosskin-like but distinctly not from the same clan was pretty important to me when designing her. But I was at such a loss!#By *chance* I saw The Hunter's design and thought 'YEAH THATS THE ONE'. Let milfs be terrifying.#Little apple originally was gonna be 'the girl who's backyard this all takes place in' but ....little bug steed....#In case you are wondering whether the Lan juniors are suspicious of the fact LSZ has twice as many legs: No. He's 'just like that' to them.#Part three will be in less than a week! Time to see the other side of the crossover!#I am so happy that I can draw silly crossovers and have people cheering me on! Yippee!

yakuya in MY swamp? in MY ecosystem? no . i am still in disbelief. i hope you all know that my particles are bouncing off the everything. i am using periods as punctuation but the state of my mind is naught neareth final.
#the devs really did surprise me.....i'll credit them with that#i fully believed it was gonna be rei#i looked at that silhouette. saw the chunky heels. thought of kuya#but i scoffed at myself. tch. of course not. devs wont play with their strange topbottom segregation. i'll never get the yakuya event#at least not until it's with garu so they have a yokai hella exposition event#it's gonna be rei at a specific angle to SIMULATE a kuya. he will be wearing kuya-esque heels just to spite all the kuyafans#AND YET HERE WE ARE#UNDER THE SEA NO LESS#WHAT ARE THEY DOING INVADING MY SPACE LIKE THIS#like hell i'm gonna share my zone (abyssopelagic) with those accursed sirens#i'm going lower#i'm moving to the trenches. i'm gonna slowly lose the use of my eyeball sight . i'm gonna adapt to conditions#SO MANY conditions. maybe even learn to bioluminesce#actually no. then the predators might find me. and i'll have to regain the use of my eyes in order to improve my chances of escape#perchance even enlargen them like the giant squid. living in constant fear of a fox or a snake appearing in the depths#yet i get the creeping suspicion that kuya is just going to bully yakumo (when he's not bullying eiden)#kuya gonna drop a sad story about personal sacrifice and the difficult lives he's lived#and yakumo ever the baby in comparison will stare at him with his massive saucer eyes like.... do i... deserve to feel sadness?#if i have not gone through the trials and tragedies that master kuya has???#is kuya gonna be soft yokai grandpa or is he gonna be Auntie of Hard Reality#the boy just wants to find new soup ingredients#kuya will then unveil the ethical ramifications of harvesting these specific ingredients#and using them for a purpose other than their original spiritual intent by the indigenous merfolk#along with the questionable supply chain and processes that go into creating the ingredients in the first place#(not that any ethics or spirituality rituals or stuff like that is actually enough to influence kuya's behaviour in any way)#but it'll certainly mess with yakumo!!!! and that's where all the fun is?#furrows brow. what will they do with this event.....#i am so very excited to see them interact..!#mirage of scales#yakuya

*FONTAINE SPOILERS*
Y'all laugh at the fact that Tartaglia randomly falling into the Abyss one day as a kid ended up being the catalyst for Fontaine's eventual predicted destruction but all this means is that from the start Tartaglia was intended to fall into the Abyss and become a Harbinger and thus has always been doomed by the narrative
#genshin impact#childe#tartaglia#kind of helps line up his story i think#gives it more purpose than just “he fell in a hole by accident and that hole happened to be the frickin pits of the underworld”#doomed to fall into the abyss and wake up the whale. doomed to be trained by skirk and become a harbinger and eventually meet the traveler#DO YOU SEE WHERE I'M GOING WITH THIS#i'm honestly so so curious if they're gonna have him start to doubt his values eventually#i am desperately hoping he has a moment where he has to choose when we inevitably fight the tsaritsa#AND HECK I HOPE HE STICKS WITH US#i really don't want my boy to be SO doomed by the narrative that he frickin DIES >:(#people say he has a lot of death flags and that's kind of true but i think he's safe since he's a playable character#i know playability is totally different from the canon versions of the characters but still#it'd be quite strange to play as a dead guy who doesn't exist anymore and has no further value to the story#can't believe i'm gonna have to wait two frickin years for snezhnaya. unfair#anyway who's excited for the interlude chapter and the inevitable dainsleif comebaaaack

Replaying the dr games is giving me a new appreciation of them overall, but I really did not realize how much I loved certain characters until now. I’m ecstatic any time nagito’s on screen, I guess he’s for sure one of my favourites fjdhf
#shut up me#after we finished playing for the night I was talking to her vaguely about how excited I am for v3#and how excited I was to see my favourite character#and she was like ‘oh you mean the guy with the checkered scarf?’#and I felt every emotion possible at once#*through gritted teeth* n-no not exactly#“but you cosplayed as him + have a pin of him on your bag + a sticker of him on your tablet#y-yeah.. yeah I do….#cant get into the weeds on that one yet but where’s the Justice for my boy Gonta. I need to up the Gonta love

#so that dotd rewrite is out and i have some thoughts on it but i wouldn't know where to put them.. maybe in here bc i don't actually feel -#- like making a whole ass text post. this is coming from me as criticism and not hate.. just some crit from one fan to another if you get m#SPOILERS AHEAD >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>#first off props to the team because this was obv a labor of love - 4 and a half years to make a feature long fan movie is hard work#and the animated stuff was a really nice touch and very commendable - you don't see them too often in big fanworks#in terms of the story well.. there are some things i like and some things that i don't (personally) again no hate#i'm aware this is a rewrite and boy howdy it IS a rewrite - though i am a bit sad that percy doesn't end up being the protagonist and it's#- thomas that has to play hero again.. like i kinda get it but what made the original dotd stand out was that percy was given the spotlight#so i spent an ungodly amount of time wondering when percy was gonna take charge or step into the main story to resolve the problem.. sigh#i liked that they tried to give norman more of a character bc a lot of characters do often get neglected in the series but it was kind of -#- hard to sell that for me? the twist in this rewrite was very creative and i do appreciate it but i guess it just ain't for me#“different” is ok and this is just one of many fan rewrites for this particular story#if there was something i enjoyed.. i guess the beginning was still kind of exciting because the set up was honestly like hype a bit#i liked that diesel and d10 actually got to interact face to face and there are clearer dynamics established for the diesels#and also. silverband's performances as d10 will always be fun he does a fantastic job voicing him (how d10 stole xmas will still be my fav)#my criticisms for this movie also derive from the pacing and the voice acting - i found it hard to try and understand tones sometimes -#- because the delivery felt so off.. like don't get me wrong not everyone in the fandom is a voice actor but if we're using static faces -#- for these fan works the delivery has to be a little more clear or else it'll sound like you're reading from a script.. sorry yall :"|#for the pacing i found it a bit hard to parse when some things were going on and how fast things were progressing#as well as the crashes.. that's also another thing bc i couldn't tell bc of the sfx and audio balancing - it could be better..#i wanna say. muffled voices do not substitute for a “far away”/off-screen voice bc i still can't hear it :“|#there were a lot of throwbacks and references to older thomas media/movies but some of them felt a little.. much?#if this is a dotd rewrite why are we getting some parallels with tatmr.. but i digress. at least they made diesel beef with duck a bit#there's a lot more i could say but i'm keeping those to myself. at the end of the day this fan movie was hard work for everyone involved#and you can tell some of the folks were having fun in there - props to them! i'm always glad to see more fan works in the community#we've come so far we're making feature length fan stories and rewrites that's crazy! i hope to see more in the future#fauxtrainpost.txt

Just started playing Skyrim for the first time and yeah. This is gonna consume my life.
playing on my switch since I bought the cartridge second hand, knew I was gonna have a bunch of soul crushing emptiness as a result of the uni grind and as I correctly predicted, living as my dragonborn is fucking epic.
It's satiating my deep need to just look in every nook and cranny, spent most of my time in the first dungeon just searching through every interactable thing.
As a DnD nerd who exclusively plays dragonborns it was very funny to load up a argonian who everyone referred to as dragonborn. Like yeah bro I'm a lizard ??
#In uni you are either an alcoholic or play skyrim#yeah#skyrim#the elder scrolls#first time skyrim run#yippee!!!#I'm having lots of fun#Loving the deep immersion to feral glitches see-saw#The closest game to this that I've played so far#is breath of the wild but like#this is entirely different in a good way#excited to marry a broody whiterun werewolf boy#i will make him mine#am I good at this game?#FUCK NO#but I'm having so much fun

found a friendship bracelet from my trip that i left in my backpack and now im thinking of the two little boys on the airport who got so excited when I told them I had messi-themed friendship bracelets, I hope they still have them <3
#there was this mom with her 3 kids (a girl and 2 boys all very little like at most the girl who was the oldest must've been like 8)#and she saw us and started talking to us and telling her girl hey look these girls came here to see taylor too just like you etc#and then she told us the girl went to the concert and the two boys went to messi's cirque de soleil thing and I was like 'oh you guys like#messi? wait until I show you my locksreen (photo of messi with the wc) and they got so excited!!!!#so afterwards when we got off the plane and I managed to find them I asked if they wanted messi-themed frienship bracelets#because my friend had given their sister friendships bracelets but the boys didnt want them#but they got so excited that I had friendship bracelets that were messi-themed and they made me so happy bc they loved the bracelets#so yeah i hope they havent lost them and also that they are having a great day#the youngest boy also invited me to play hello kitty with them on the plane but we weren't sitting close to him and he was so sad :(

worrying about 'is it mean of me not to discourage my friend getting too carried away with shipping our blorbos if I don't know that it's likely to actually happen in canon :\' but then remembering this same friend, as a DM, was once like 'oh my god [NPC] has a huge crush on [my PC], he's down SO bad 😏' but then had that npc FULLY DATING another PLAYER CHARACTER by the time the (rest of the) party went back to the city he lived in
#SO IF IT'S A RUGPULL I GUESS THAT'S FAIR PLAY#... not that felix is likely to have prospects elsewhere 😔 justin's PCs are usually straight...#and I. already know the ranger is absolutely not an option fkjhdgk#SEE AND THE ANNOYING THING IS I DEMURRED ON THE 'jsyk they could totally hook up 👀' THING FOR SO LONG!!#BECAUSE I DIDN'T WANT IT TO SET A TONE!! BUT THE CAMPAIGN WAS DEAD SO LIKE! IT DIDN'T MATTER :'D#I didn't think we'd end up still playing these bois together :')#I'm really glad I found out we WERE like five minutes BEFORE she asked about felix's *preferences* [eyebrow wiggles]#cause there's information that. she can't have if we're gonna PLAY them. she'd make it Weird at the table jhfdgfdkj she HAS no chill#man on the other note of this post I was really excited for tsakesh to maybe get a dnd romance :')#he's a charming boy and I love him also I'd never had any opportunity for dnd romance yet at all to that point#literally I'm pretty sure she straight up forgot that NPC had had the hots for tsakesh#she was using him to rehabilitate our temporarily split from the party chaotic evil warlock while we were out on adventures 😭#about me#irl frens#my OCs#felix#tsakesh

falling asleep tucked up against Guz's chest while he plays some video game or other,,, and he's so happy that he gets to have me in his lap while he games, and he feels so content with the world in that moment,,,
#it is a very low energy/high fatigue day today SIGH !!!#i think partially bc i didnt sleep enough but fjfkdl alas and alack that was my fault for staying up too late working on a sketch WIP#I'll post that tonight hopefully if i finish it :3#if i can get a few dishes done today and also crochet the last 2 pieces of my is.opod amig.urumi then I'll be pretty plum pleased w myself#and then i can start putting all the pieces of the isoboy together :] !! very excited for that fjflsl this has been a year-long WIP i think#also its funny but i genuinely enjoy watching other ppl play video games fjfkdl#i think bc i grew up w two older brothers and i wasnt allowed to play video games as much as they were#so i ended up just. watching them play fairly often#also im not v good at video games in general so fjkdl i enjoy seeing other ppl play them !! plus im like. not competitive as a general rule#and then w this scenario... keyboard sounds and game controller sounds often make me sleepy and calm for some reason#so fhfkdl ... this would be a great way to lull me into a doze heehoo fjkflf and ough... laying against him... OUGGHHH exploding and dying#dandy.cmd#💜so good at being in trouble#💜a boy and his bug🪲

It’s almost their time of year ft. some redraws (Patreon)
#Doodles#TSP#The Stanley Parable#I'm gonna get to play this year on 4/27!!#I'm so excited!! I still really want Ultra Deluxe ouq But until then I'll finally get the achievement and to play again!!#Also I've just been missing them in general haha <3 Been too long boys#Mostly just sticking with my own designs even though the redraws are kind of loose lol - I'm sure you can see the resemblance!#Narra and Sinister!Stanley :) Stanarrator becomes Sinarrator?? :0 Lol#Honestly mostly inspired by some headcanons I didn't realize I had?? Lol#Was looking at TSP stuff and I was like Hey Wait A Minute.......my Opinions are starting to make Images!#Lol#Currently only featuring Sinister but this applies to all my Stanleys <3 I love all my Stanleys equally!#*proceeds to only draw Sinister* lol#But basically that since Stanley is mute (in this case the fully mute headcanon) he doesn't have an internal voice#Or rather he does but it's just the Narrator again lol#And when he's feeling annoyed with Narra he'll turn off the voice and think visually instead - as it's his ''truest'' internal expression#It's him unfiltered! Nobody's putting words in his mouth or his head!#In this case Narra is willing to describe what he's actually thinking about at first but then gets on his case#Which Sin is Not putting up with lol - he's allowed to want his facial hair back! Screw you Narra! Haha#Secretly the Narrator thinks it's cute and gets flustered by it#''I'm so sick of Stanley and his slutty facial hair'' the Narrator thinks to himself very normally and not attracted at all lol#Sinister's poor arm haha - the Narrator probably directed him to put it in the fire again#Just because you can't feel it doesn't mean it doesn't hurt! Bastard <3#And then just the last couple redraws to get back into the swing of things ♪ I can't decide which one I like better!#The first one being a little frumpy and grumpy feels so nice haha#But I'm still rather attached to the asymmetrical long hair ahhh - he's so cute either way dang him#Maybe being able to play again will give me better images haha
