Actually cute. Had to do a quick redraw.

do any other artists feel like. yeah you're a 'good artist' because you draw things that look nice, but like. TECHNICALLY? you're really not great
i really hate that i can recognise that yes, my art is good, but is it VARIED? is it dynamic?? is my anatomy good? is it full of texture and colour theory? do i know how to do This? can i do That? no, not really. and that's quite painful actually
#ramble#yes this is the artist's perspective bs and yes this is anxiety because it's 1am#and yes i'm forever learning and growing but also#aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa.#drawing my little guys is fun but i am not good enough for the industry right now and that fucking sucks#i really feel like if i walked into a studio with my portfolio right now they would laugh at me#one of those days where i wish i'd done a more useful degree y'know#i'm going back through the phase where i don't know what i'm going to be anymore and it's scary#some days i really want to give it up and never draw again and do something worthwhile because i Know my life would be easier#and i hate that something i love so much makes me feel so hopeless#signs that i should go to bed ^^^^#i will resume my pity party tomorrow

Haven't they broken several rules they've established just for everything to revolve around Tsukasa? Like...
1. A mystery can't be defeated in their own boundary (and yet Tsukasa somehow ripped Kako's heart out in his own boundary)
2. You can't use your tsueshiro in a boundary without permission (and yet Tsukasa ordered his to hold down Mirai)
3. Nobody could move because the school's time was frozen (yet Tsukasa did, as well as Yashiro, and Hanako who if I remember correctly suddenly unfroze on his own to break down into tears)
The earlier chapters were way better at following previously established rules and concepts compared to whatever's going on right now
They did ! :))) (want to explode)
I can understand the idea that Tsukasa is a rule breaker, he did destroy the previous n°3 in his own boundary too and it was an interesting twist! I can understand the idea and why it can be interesting, but the way AidaIro using all others characters/plots to make him stand out is just terrible. Dirsregarding rules is not a new thing about AidaIro unfortunately but Tsukasa really wins all medals on breaking them.
As you said, he was able to move when time was stopped and for which reason?? We don't know. Hanako was able to move once Akane and Teru got to him, probably because Akane is a clock keeper and can somehow give the permission to people to move.
I said it before and I will say it again, but wanting to show a character is powerful/cool by making the others characters look stupid is terrible writing, and that's the feeling I got with Tsukasa in general. (and chapter 109 is just a whole sequence of the characters being made fun of)
We don't know where to stand because he has every kind of tropes attached to him. They want us to understand he is some kind of martyr who is 'omg poor lil Tsukasa who was so selfless at only 4yo boohoo' (no matter which translation I read for the red house arc, he is believable somehow with Kou but then we get the flashbacks with Amane and it's gone). They put him in an 'angel' position and naive position in a lot of aus, want us so bad to understand deep down he is a nice boy. When we watched him do every possible horrors on screen. And don't get me wrong, I don't mind this, it's cool. Him forcing Mitsuba to eat, creating him, the way he treats some characters... It's the way they are not doing that to other characters who is so strange in my opinon. They know how to handle grey characters like Hanako or Teru (from the reader's pov) so I don't why they try so hard to put Tsukasa in a good light.
He is not a believable kid character in the red house arc, being smarter than Kou and Nene is not making him cool, it's just making Kou and Nene absolute idiots.
Him destroying his shackles thanks to Mirai power? It's not him being clever, it's Mirai and the clock keepers being made fun of. Him knowing what Hanako should be doing by using Nene? Not making Tsukasa cool, it's making Nene just as an object for Hanako's love, and to get a reaction out of him, most of the time by making Hanako look stupid. (I could go hours on why Nene is just here to serve as a mean to Hanako's character since some arc rather than being her own person but that's for another day)...
I understand that Tsukasa is like 'the antagonist and should be some steps ahead of the portagonist' but it's just so repitive in the way he is unpredicatble that it became boring and predictable. I was overjoyed to see him like this in chapter 108. (which was let's be honest the only good chapter in this new arc)
Tsukasa is really good here, which is why the drop of quality in chap 109 is even worst. Seeing a new side of him as a supernatural and his sorrow/hatred for Amane is really great. He even moralizes Nene about why sometimes you just need/have to get yourself out of situations alone, and that's how he himself proceeds because his brother never went to see him in 50 years. That he had no choice but to do so. It's great! Really great! To see that he is also an unpredicatble character and who decides to do what he wants not taking people's opinions in mind, because even his older never helped him when he called for him during all this time. It adds a good layer to his character and seeing him weaker/not really knowing what to do is something we desesperatly need for his chacter. But as everything in chap 108, chap 109 throws it out of the window and goes back to the usual ' we have set ups but terrible pay offs' things that has been happening a lot in the recent arcs.
He is also way too OP. As you said suddenly his tsueshiros could move again and he got rid of Kako. Even Hakubo and Teru being ones of the most powerful characters, were defeated once, Tsukasa never was seriously. It's never explained why he is so powerful (probably because he has an entity inside him/he eats others supernaturals) but the difference of levels is just insane, and absolutely not compelling to read.
We don't know why he is doing what he is doing and they try so hard to make him mysterious. They want us to get to know him without saying anything relevant or his backstory. We are left with whole chapters of absolutely nothing. Welp too bad I am not patient enough to see Tsukasa doing random stuff when half of the characters have rushed characters development or none because 'there isn't much time'.
AidaIro want us to understand they love him and that we should too but they are just destroying every other characters rather than make him loveable.
I hate what they did with his character, his role is terrible because it's destroying eveyone else's. Tsukasa is the favorite and it shows, but it's so badly done that I can't help but hate him.
#toilet bound hanako kun#tbhk#tbhk spoilers#tbhk analysis#somehow idk#I will be honest Idc much about Tsukasa since I don't like him so it's really surface level#my opinion too but yes ahah#I am really bothered by how he is written#jshk#yugi tsukasa#yugi amane#I know the manga isn't finished and that we will get more backstory later but I am tired of waiting for him to be a loveable character to m#sorry Anon I used this ask to say why I think Tsukasa sucks#I think his personnality is funny i will be honest#but WOW his role? fcking terrible#jibaku shonen hanako kun#this post could be resume as 'I want him gone' tbh#and ty for the ask! I totally agree with you!

i actually take it back. no one should read the tolling bells by @edsbacktattoo bc it will make tears inexplicably come out your eyeballs, even tho you're a strong, independent woman who doesn't show emotional vulnerability for normal mentally well reasons, and this will inevitably lead to a headache, and then you will spend the next several hours complaining to anyone who will listen that you have a headache, did you know i have a headache? my head really hurts, you guys
anyway, definitely don't read this, it may irrevocably alter your immortal soul in a way that is potent and yet indescribable with the words available to you in the english language. (idk about other languages, i haven't tried)
also, it might give you a headache. did i mention that part already? just sayin'

Finished Veilguard!
I have really complicated feelings about the game overall. I finished in 55 hours and did not enjoy the first 20 and only started to like it around the 30 hour mark, but the last 25% of the game, especially the ending, was mostly awesome. There are a lot of things I think the game did poorly, and some things I think it did excellently. I am very happy with the ending I got but not enough so that I can forget how unenjoyable the first half of the game was for me. I may write a more detailed review with a breakdown of what specifically I did or did not like later, but it would be very spoilery. I'm unsure at this point if I'll play again.
#mine#dav spoilers#dragon age spoilers#datv spoilers#not really in this post but just so anyone who wants to see nothing doesn't have to#sharing your opinions is welcome but if you just want to say im wrong or whatever. fuck off#people are allowed to think the game isn't perfect :)#I do agree that it was an almost bug free launch which is. incredible. i only had one bug and it was weird and didn't effect gameplay#just a persistent visual glitch of some weird dark shape stuck on the ground behind my rook#that makes it sound like i don't know what a shadow is#ive removed all my blacklist filters for the game and i may resume posting now

If I can ask, since you mentioned liking the legend of zelda, what's your opinion on the recent announcement from Nintendo that there's gonna be a Tloz live action movie?
I've seen a lot of people mad because it isn't animated, and I honestly feel the same way. Like, I don't wanna give a not-even-released-movie bad faith (we haven't even seen a trailer for it), but you know... Live action movies based off videogames don't tend to turn out... Well. I hope I'm mistaken of course, but I'm honestly concerned too.
oh god
i am not excited
i wish i could be
i wish i could be hyped for it the way 6 year old me would have been
but the odds just aren't stacked in its favor with the team it has onboard, fucking avi arad, wes ball, and derek conolly
a middle of the road hit or miss producer whose movies often make or break franchises
an industry baby director who directed three crappy movies from the same failure of a franchise and a couple indie flicks
and a mixed-reviews-at-best writer who came up with "somehow palpatine returned"
and yeah the fact that it's live action... why couldn't it have been animated? You're telling me that Breath of the Wild/Tears of the Kingdom was inspired by Ghibli films and you STILL went for a live action approach instead of making it animated by, idk, Ghibli?? or shit, Studio Ponoc even!
and you just KNOW there's a high chance it's gonna be done in the live action disney remake "looks like shit the day it airs" way, not the practical effects "ages like fine wine" lord of the rings way
i want to be optimistic, i want to be hopeful, but i'm just not the kid i was when this movie SHOULD have happened
it happening now just feels like another soulless cog in the multiverse machine, y'know what i mean? the super mario bros movie did well so now ofc it's time for nintendo to 'expand' their film franchises and i just... i'm so tired. i can't. i've spent too long having zelda as my hyperfixation all throughout my childhood to have it go out this way (╥﹏╥)
#i'm literally praying to god that they prove me wrong and it turns out to be good#zelda was literally the reason i became a comic artist and went into character art and animation as my major#i shit you not rekindled would not exist if it weren't for zelda#trust me on this the domino effect is real#please don't let crisp rat anywhere near this#literally detective pikachu was the golden goose in derek connolly's resume but it's so outweighed by the garbage#so yeah it's not looking good but i want it to turn out great for the kid in me#ama#ask me anything#anon ama#anon ask me anything

I don't think so#I got there and the hr person is actually a woman my age I went to high school with (and same university too)#and one of the other women also looked familiar and that's because she went to the same high school too only she's a year older#ofc the job I actually want has been silent since last week when they did confirm they got my resume#idk it doesn't take that long to look at it and conclude I don't fit the profile (and I don't)#and just tell me 'no thank you'

Besties, let's please stop using and abusing the words "facilitated" and "leveraged" in your resumes because if I read another one riddled with them I will go absolutely feral
#whoever taught you to dress up your resume like this lied to you#you sound nonsensical#please I am trying to help but I want to gouge my eyes out#they tell me nothing of what you've actually done#and it just feels like you're lying/you don't know what your job was#esp if i see it 10+ times in a one pager#THIS ISN'T EVEN MY JOB#nara rambles#about work

i think culinary school is a portal to hell :) i would strongly advised against it :)
i appreciate u being real w me haha. i ended up going with a community college culinary arts AAS program because $$ and also if i hate it it's easier to change to something different.
#my ultimate goal is do something more like catering or private chefing or the true ideal would to be a personal chef for a family#eventually#i don't want to have a longterm career in a restaurant kitchen or anything#and from what i understand personal/private chef clients like to see a degree on ur resume#especially bc i would have to market myself i think it would just be really helpful#if i wanted to work in a restaurant i would skip school and just. go work in a restaurant bc the experience is much better#like working ur way up in a restaurant is a much cheaper and more hands on way to learn how to be a great restaurant chef#idk if that makes any sense haha#i just think for my end goals going to school makes the most sense#asks

yoooo ok that last job turning out to be bullshit might actually be a blessing in disguise because I just landed an interview for an after school theater teacher gig that pays way better~ I went to theater camp every year from ages 12 to 17 and always loved the idea of being a counselor for a program like that, and did backstage / dramaturg work for a play at UCSB back in pre-pandemic 2020 so I might actually have a shot at this. Wish me luck!
#so far I have a 100% rate of getting the job offer after interviews#ended up turning down the offer I got yesterday as it was a bit too high stakes for me at this point in my life#I take working with kids--especially kids with intellectual disabilities--super seriously#and I just don't think I'm ready to be a para-educator especially since that's not exactly the career path I want to go down in the long ru#but yeah for whatever reason I always do really good with interviews#my resume isn't anything special but when I get a chance to turn on the rizz I usually get the gig#perks of being an awkward neurodivergent kid who had no concept of social cues is that I had to learn it all from scratch#so I'm actually pretty good at being very friendly and personable and telling potential employers what they want to hear#without coming across as phony#partially because I do genuinely like chatting with people#personal

so maestro told me tonight at the end of rehearsal that he "got an email about me", turns out it was the org that's interviewing me next week for their summer job reaching out to him as a reference. and then when that was figured out maestro proceeded to spend the next, like, twenty minutes standing there writing out a recommendation for me on his phone at 10 pm while i'm Sitting Right There, just trying to get the assignment notes to send to the orchestra,
#living in a Comedy over here#he kept occasionally asking me questions too like 'how long have i known you? ten years?' (it's 8 or 9 at this point)#and 'do they know about your honors and high grades' ('i mean they have my resume so i guess so' 'i will mention it anyway'#lmao thanks maestro)#once again it's very sweet the lengths he goes to help me succeed professionally#i don't know if i. needed to or should have been Right There while he recommended me...#but there it is i suppose. one glowing recommendation ahead of my interview next week#although since this is the first time he's mentioned getting contacted like this i think this means the other internships i applied to#a month/month and a half ago just...never bothered to reach out and overlooked me as a candidate. sigh#oh well...i got one (1) response this week for one (1) job opportunity#(and it was the one i applied to kind of late out of. waning hope that the others were still a possibility..)#so. hoping i don't fuck up next week during my interview and hoping i don't have some crazy competition or something#bc damn i really want and need this internship......please......#i wanna talk about me

Heyo, so um... I wrote a really long thing. But because homophobia and transphobia is mentioned (not endorsed or condoned, but I used a couple of quotes so I don't know if that counts as being explicit about it?), here's your warning now!
You know, one of the biggest challenges of being trans, for me, is realizing that not everyone's out to get me. Granted, I was set up for failure from the beginning; both of my parents were (and still are) homophobic and transphobic, and though they wouldn't throw me out of the house or disown me for it, they heavily disapprove of it in general. And that was a traumatizing experience for me, as a kid that has such a close relationship with them that I tell them everything even now. To open up to the people I love the most and be told, "No you can't be trans," or to admit to both them and myself about a crush and be told, "But that's ungodly." And besides my brief experience with the general queer community, barely enough to realize that being queer and trans was a thing that you could be, that was my first main experience with being queer, and it set the tone for almost every other interaction between me and queerness for years. Every time it came up, I stiffened, preparing myself for someone to argue it didn't exist or that queer people were just maliciously tricking others for some reason or another, and even when my school friends and teachers accepted me immediately, I couldn't relax and was stuck thinking, "But when will everything go wrong??"
Cut to a few years after and you have me, in college, going by my chosen name on literally everything that's not legal and (a lot of times) openly telling folks my pronouns. But it's taken a lot of character development to even get here. It took me a month going to early college and being completely away from my parents to realize that people actually won't care too much and will just use your chosen name and whatever pronouns you ask for (even neopronouns, to some extent; though there will be a lot of stumbling and questions involved, people close to you will be willing to go through that even just for your comfort). It took me until literally a few months ago to fully come to terms with the fact that people automatically (and accidentally) misgendering you isn't malicious at all, and in fact they'll often feel kinda upset if you don't correct them. And also, you don't need to tell everyone your pronouns. (I've taken to not correcting people who I'm not especially close to, especially because even though I am a boy, none of my body is changed and I can't blame others for assuming. Plus some people find connection in a shared identity [like being the only two girls in a group], and I don't have to feel pressured to correct them and break [or at least somewhat fray] that. But other people have different boundaries and comfort levels.) It didn't take me long to get comfortable with being feminine once I realized I was trans, but it took me so much longer to realize that if you tell the people around you that you're a boy, they won't see you as a girl just because you dress or act more feminine one day versus another.
But for all this to happen, you need to tell people about your identity; be comfortable with answering questions about (almost) anything and everything, because people might be confused and it's best to approach that with an open mind rather than a closed and boobytrapped one. My wonderful college friends are a great example of that—they consistently call me a boy and make man jokes and call my hawaiian shirts dad shirts and call me a femboy on my feminine days. But months before now, I had to have a bunch of conversations with one about how I saw myself, my relationship with gender and sex, what body modifications were involved in my view of myself, and more. (Some of these conversations are more than you'd just give a plain friend, but I didn't mind getting a little personal so that was my boundary. Also there were many days when I felt myself getting reflexively defensive and I had to leave, think about the topic for a week or so, and come back with a calmer mind.) And even now I still give my friends feedback on what pronouns feel good, if how and when they use them feels nice (since I like having my pronouns mixed), etc. because I've had to teach myself that showing that I like something won't get me scorned or ridiculed. It's a very, very slow process and it involves learning just as much about yourself as it does telling that to other people, but let me tell you it's so rewarding.
Now, there are still times when people are legitimately homophobic/transphobic to me. Like, I haven't even come out to my parents yet, despite literally telling one of their sisters that I'm nonbinary, because I know that I likely will never be able to change their views and I don't want to put myself through that pain again. So when I hear them talk about queerness (which doesn't happen often, thank goodness, but still occasionally does), I still prepare myself for the worst. But part of my healing was restricting that response to just them and people who have already proven themselves to be queerphobic. I don't want to be a person that gives someone a bad experience with the queer community just because I'm defensive thanks to my own experiences, because though I can't control them, I would never want to be someone that, even unknowingly, causes someone else pain.
(And yes, a major factor in my ability to even come to this conclusion is the fact that I'm no longer constantly living with my parents. I waited 2 and a half years to finally not be under their roof, and during that time that was all I was doing: waiting. It's only been since I could leave that I could truly process everything and try to form thoughts on the matter because I'm no longer just trying to survive. So I'm not talking mainly to those people who are still waiting, but still, if you're stuck having to wait, don't feel bad that you can't grow. Sometimes all you can do is wait, and in the end, that's just as important.)
So yeah, that's the mindset that I've been trying to build over the past year or so of finally being free to be myself. And I'm trying to carry it on to other parts of my life (the autism/ADHD, the nonhumanity, the blackness) just because it's a happier and more productive way to spend my life than constantly being on the lookout for bigots and avoiding people who could just be ignorant. Because I can't control them, but I can control me, and I don't want a bigot to decide how happy I live my life even after they're gone.
#tw transphobia#tw homophobia#y'all I still sometimes worry about the fact that I'm using my chosen name on resumes and awards and not easily erasable stuff#this character development stuff is slow T-T#also a main part of this mindset I'm starting to work on is “you don't have to automatically hide stuff close to you#but also you don't have to tell folks everything either“#like there's a difference between being a blabbermouth with no sense of TMI and feeling forced to tell personal details#one's mostly natural and the other's not and also not fun to deal with#so while I have told one irl person about my nonhumanity I'm trying to take it slow lol#college friends already know I'm a massive furry with cat ears and tail in my closet#that'll have to be enough for them for a while#at least until I feel ready to tell them (cause I want but don't know how)#oh and some stuff I'll prolly take to my grave lol; they don't immediately need to know and it should probably never come up#waow look at me ✨️ maturing!! ✨️#student loans do some stufff to ya#trans#transgender#“for once not about nonhumanity” except I tied it in!!! >:)

The OTHER worry for tradwives is that it will work just fine. You stay married. You stay home. Your whole life. Your entire life revolves around your kids, who resent you for it (jeez, mom, get a life and leave me alone). Your husband criticizes your parenting and how you spend his money. You not only take care of your husband and children, but you'll be expected to take care of your parents as they age. Your other siblings have jobs, you see. You haven't worked in 25 years and have zero self-confidence about finding a job. He'll never file for divorce. You'll never file for divorce. Losing yourself in service to others is high and noble, until you realize you're entirely lost.
#this post inspired by having lunch with my friends yesterday#they felt so bad for me when I got divorced when my kids were tiny#and now it's 12 years later and getting divorced was the best thing that ever happened to me#i was a tradwife too#much easier to bridge that 10 year gap on the resume than trying to bridge a 25 year gap on the resume#marriage and motherhood can be awesome but don't make it your entire life#even if your family life is happy you'll still want to have something of your own
