You know, episodes-wise, Egon's Ghost and The Boogeyman is Back, aren't that far away from each other (Season 2, episode 60, and Season 3 episode 3. about 8 episodes apart)
Can you imagine almost/kinda dying and ending up in the Netherworld (not to be confused with the Netherlands), and then, like, a few months later, almost dying again?
No wonder Egon was so terrified it brought the Boogeyman back. Sure they risk their lives each day but those were two incidences where death was very real for him, and they weren't too far away from each other
#rambles#the real ghostbusters#ghostbusters#egon spengler#just watched Egon's Ghost so that's why this is on my mind#also they never specify how much time passes between episodes#but i doubt it's years apart#egon suffers from the curse of being the genius (the writers have to find ways to stop him from solving the problem and that often means#death - or kidnap - or being possessed - or not being able to function because of xyz)#he also bodyswapped with a demon 3 episodes after Egon's Ghost so... yknow#it's a fun cartoon from the 80s - the trauma never lasts longer than an episode at most - but my god is it interesting to think about

ā§*:ļ½„ļ¾Art summary 2024
2014-2017Ā |Ā 2018Ā |Ā 2019Ā |Ā 2020 | 2021
#art summary#art summary 2024#art summary meme#my art#I know two years are missing but I wanted to get back to doing this summary#no art in November apart from that little mushroom so I didn't separate Aster and Kornelia (I like that drawing lol)#I draw significantly less and even less for myself but I don't mind for some reason#idk maybe my hyperfixation is now writing#I used to draw and learn about art and consume it in every way#and then I think Al came in and started to slowly destroy that obsession bringing doubts about my skills and the whole sense of creating#I don't look for new art that much because the constant suspicion spoils the joy of exploration#I don't feel like posting drawings in low res blurry with added artefacts knowing they will be ground into mush anyway#all so the rich dudes become richer and the spiteful dudes drown in their own venom#I know writing is treated the same way as visual art#it's art after all so something useless and pointless#but at least I don't have to post my chapters every month and watch as they disappear in the everyday slop#though I'm sure the big bosses will take my words and feed them to the machines as well because why not#sorry about the tags xD#HAPPY NEW YEAR! (soon)#I hope 2025 is the year the Al bros choke ;)

israel doing the absolute most to try and win eurovision is so baffling to me. they seem to think that would be good pr but it's so clearly the opposite? if israel wins, and that is very likely at least the public vote, it's only going to strengthen the outrage and will be an unbelievably bad look for both israel and eurovision as a whole. you're slaughtering an entire people while winning a fuckass music competition? that you're spending a ton of money on begging people to vote for you in? that's literally just going to make people so much angrier. i truly don't get how on earth they think this is a good move. and eurovision as a whole will be even more of a joke than it already is.
#unfortunately you can't vote Against anyone#so yeah israel's gonna get a lot of votes i'm afraid#i havent heard any songs this year apart from norway's so idk whos actually the best i don't really care#but i kind of doubt anyone has the pull to beat the propaganda#eurovision

I am surprised that you still can't find a partner. You're gorgeous, interesting and cute at the same time.
(probably because you may be a federal agent)
i suffer from ācanāt communicate effectively because of anxietyā BUT itās getting a lot better!!!
iāve also had a lot of āyou are great but iām seeing someone else now, byeā experiences. like, this happened three times. two in one year š it takes a while to get over that and restore your self confidence, lol!!
#the first time especially destroyed me#like. it was my first feedee/feeder (more like encourager) thing#i was trying so hard#but after it ended i lost a lot of weight#itās funny to me now lowkey bc it wasnāt serious at allllll#but i was emotionally invested#and he reconnected w a vanilla former gf so. idk who really lost there#the FUNNIEST part is that two of them happened on the exact same day 2 years apart#that fact helped me thru it#plus. itās good to be fat on your own!!#it makes u stronger#iām so worried the ppl that did this to me stalk my page.#i really doubt the first guy does but the second.. thereās a chance. he knows the account#but i doubt it if heās w someone seriously

when the fuck does ghost trick take place
everyone's using payphones and people have house phones but they also have wireless headphones and flat screen tvs? is it the late 2010s, when wireless headphones first became popular? it can't take place in the late 2010s because no one's calling Lynne an sjw for having red hair and also ghost trick came out in 2010. is it the 90s? did they have wireless headphones in the 90s? didn't everyone have a crt? weren't flat screen TVs considered luxury as fuck? were lynne and kamila rich as fuck?
#xenon screams#ghost trick#this has been haunting me since i first played this game#which was over a year ago#it appears to be a not very good apartment with thin walls. so i doubt they were rich as fuck

RIP Krakoa š¹ I canāt lie Iāve been kinda behind since midway through Fall of X Iām gonna catch up before my first SDCC this summer but I hear Vulcan didnāt see much action anyway. Anyway my hand slipped and I found myself looking into the eyes of my canonically psychotic son the best Summers brother whoās never done anything wrong in his entire life, (heās done lotsa wrong things but I love him more for it)
#canonically psychotic = he canonically has psychosis. (not in the ableist way in that hes evil. which he is. lemme enjoy problematic rep)#Gabriel Summers#art by seaweed#words by seaweed#X-Men Red#the Gabriel hate during the Krakoa era pffffft. was 100% from ppl who didnt read the Rise and Fall of the Shi'ar Empire#āhe attacked Stormā hes also a genocidal dictator who tortures ppl for catharsis. drunkenly coming at Ororo is the least bad thing he did#āhe's a doucheā mother of all understatements. now get this man back w his boyfriend who he forced to be his best man under pain of death#Gabriel fans LOVE that Ororo beat his ass. he deserved it. it was a fake discourse made up by a certain segment of goddess!Ororo fans#I say as an Ororo fan! Shes my fav A-list x-manš„° yes Gabe was at a mental low but Ororo didnt know that. that was Scott's responsibility.#psychotic Emperor Vulcan is what we call a problematic mentally ill villain trope. I love him SO much. (okay lets talk)#we donāt know much about his childhood but we do know he spent 2 years in a fugue state after escaping slavers when he was like ten ):#as an āadultā-ish he's uh āmentallyā 15 or sumn according to the calculations claimed to him by his hallucination of his actual child self#and apart from THOSE hallucinations. heās very paranoid to the point of killing his advisors because he becomes convinced-#that theyāre plotting to kill him. they aren't. he relies on Calseye to ground him thru his paranoia. and then of course in the Krakoa era#he believes his energy constructs of Petra and Sway who drink with him till he blacks out every single day are real. he isnt consciously#creating them; but he sees them- and bc heās a godlike mutant his subconscious makes his hallucinations visible. making everyone uncomfy#Charles tries to use telepathy to FORCIBLY reality check him. which of course triggers his trauma. and GABE is punished for it?#(oh plus our finding out Gabe got brain surgery done on him by some gods outside the universe offpanel. he never does well with tampering)#and now the writers who pushed Hickman out (also RIP Sabretooth & the Exiles. RIP Hellions) want us to be SAD Krakoa is gone?#yes Gabriel is the mentally ill villain trope. but Krakoa never cared for mutants who couldnāt fit in. who were traumatized. disabled. etc#Alex OF ALL PEOPLE should understand that. ALEX shouldāve been there for Gabriel. (why wasn't he. did he hold a grudge for past torture.)#Alex also w Murder-Enjoying Disorder but it was actually treated as an illness and those in authority presented as wrong for excluding him#instead of helping him. which v flawed but Hellions was one of the best mental illness comics? like Zeb Wells was conscious of the genre#but Gabriel was justā¦ cast out. for panicking when his prime traumatizer Charles invaded his mind. he deserved help too#and all because his family were annoyed at him for drinking all night and throwing up and passing out on the floor? for being delusional?#And like- all of the summers brothers are nd (Scott's brain damage; Alex's dissociative episodes; Gabriel's psychosis)#I have nothing to say about Adam X ((I highly doubt he's neurotypical and/or mentally healthy)) ((nothing to say abt him tho))#and Gabes paranoia is 100% rooted in his issues of being made to feel like an outsider. like YES the obvious MUTANT identity but also#he thinks his father abandoned him to be a slave. he's not Summers enough for Scott. hes not Shi'ar enough for the Shi'ar

Love love LOVEEE your depiction / modifications of Al-Qatala. Iād never noticed before how weird their actions in the game are until you pointed it out. Why the fuck Would a agitating liberation organization fuck with anything in Piccadilly???? I really love the differences and dynamics you highlighted between the ULF and Al Mudahiyn!
Hi, Thank you so much!
I kinda understand why they did this from the dev's POV, bc for them, a way to show an organization is "extremely dangerous" and "ruthless", is for them to come to the 141's home turf in the UK (because showing them harming people in Urzikstan or Russia wouldn't be "scary enough").
I'm glad you like Al Mudahiyn. They're definitely gonna show up in part 2, so I'll be interested to explore their motivations more in the future!
#asks answered#ty for the ask <3#honestly i had to either change AQ or remove them completely bc i wouldnt have been comfortable writing them#which is another reason hassan/AQ are not in part one#tbh i still dont feel qualified to write even something like Al Mudahiyn because these kinds of things#require sensitivity readers i dont have for something like... a cod au fanfic#so im going off of my existing knowledge of politics and war and try to think from other povs than mine#but this topic is not simple or easy#and its much easier for me to critique and take apart something like the campaign than to recreate it myself#anyway im rambling again. this is why i need my post scripts#im considering making a post script for the side stories... but i wrote the first one literally a year ago so i doubt i remember much lmao

Wine stains on porcelain
(Alternatively: @katkastrofa and I have created 5 OCs in 3 days and I suffer from chronic āI wanna draw the little guysssssssā disease)
#my art#artists on tumblr#the legend of korra#original characters#I have not figured out a tag system yet so for now this is all theyāre getting#their names are liba and abyan and Iām very much obsessed :)#theyāre the children of two of our other newest OCs. Himman and Summiya#the latter of whom just happens to be Zaheerās older sister#but he ran away from home years before these two were born so he most likely isnāt even aware of their existence#I mean. Iām sure he suspects his sisters had children. but thatās the extent of what he knows#anyway#quite a few headcanons came to mind as I was drawing so Iām gonna type them out while I can still function#(havenāt slept for two nights in a row. Iām starting to doubt whether Iām actually alive or not)#Liba is older by about a year but once they grow up a little itās barely noticeable and people assume theyāre twins#over time they stop bothering to correct them because really. theyāre so close they might as well be#they were both burn with port wine stain birthmarks on their faces. much to their motherās dismay#she has a whole perfectionism complex and needed her children to reflect that to maintain the family image#thus they were taught how to hide the marks early on. but the powder makes them constantly sneeze#liba is very self conscious about it bc of what her mother put in her head. Abyan less so bc while heās expected to be perfect#his future doesnāt depend on his looks. he always tries to comfort his sister whenever she spirals too deep. no matter that sheās older#when no one is around to hear he calls her Lili <3 it annoyed her at first so she dubbed him Yanyan in retaliation#but over time they both grew to love the nicknames and now use them unironically#theyāre the ultimate partners in crime. their goal? gaining as much freedom from their mother as possible#and sooner or later they will manage to do so permanently. which will make Summiya fall apart. but that is currently Katās domain#speaking of. hi Kat. I know youāve already seen this in pencil but look! I coloured them!!#the birthmarks were both kinda annoying and rather fun to do. maybe Iāll change them later. I was too tired to look at refs so I improvised#and thereās no detail in clothing since again. 0 energy whatsoever. but once I refine their full body designs I shall go all out#that reminds me I need to go collect my new sketchbook. might do it on the way home from the store#okay Iām getting distracted. is this my very unsubtle way of trying to influence Kat to write that Summiya fic?#maybe. maybe not. you canāt prove anything š

I conducted a vote on which fic snippet to share, and you chose the shipfic I'm writing out of spite!
(Sooo, just for a little context: this is from a short fic set in the same setting as my main Medieval AU, but not in the same universe/continuity as my main Medieval AU. Kinda like what SW Legends is to canon, yknow?)
---
āIām the PRINCESSSSS!ā
Ahsokaās flailing arm nearly hit Rex in the face, but he dodged, and caught her around the middle, stopping her tipsy swaying. āYes, Your Highness, we know.ā
She threw an arm around his neck and squished her cheek against his pauldron. āIām prettyyyyy.ā
āIf you insist, Princess.ā
āDo you think Iām pretty?ā
She swerved wildly, and he redirected her. āIt would be unseemly for me to answer that, Princess.ā
āSeemly. Seeeeeemly. Stupid Seemley Ress,ā she said, slurring his name, then trying to correct herself. āStupid Seemly Ress. Resss. Ressss! My tongueāsss not workinā, Ress!ā
āSo I hear.ā
āIām pretty. And Iām strong.ā
āAs everyone knows.ā
āAnd Iām tall!ā
āAcknowledged.ā
āAnd Iām orange!ā
āCorrect.ā
āAND Iāmā¦ Iāmma walk on my own now!ā
She shoved him away and took two wobbly steps forward before he had to catch her again.
āI can do it!ā she whined. āIām a lady. Iām twenāny yearssss olā. I can walk!ā
She very clearly could not, so with a sigh, Rex bent over and lifted her completely, carrying her down the hallway. āAll due respect, ladies do not get sloshed at formal dinners.ā
āIsss noā my fault,ā she muttered. āIssstupid Korkieās fault.ā
āRight,ā Rex said, ignoring her and the looks he was getting. Mostly sympathetic ones; everyone knew the Princess was trouble and was used to her getting into worse predicaments than this.
āKorkie says you liiiiike me,ā she continued, singsongy. āHe says youāreāyouāre not sssaying anāthin ābout it cause of, uh. Uhhhhh. Clones! People donāt like you. Stupid people donāt. Good people do. Korkie says I like you.ā
āThat would be surprising, considering the amount of complaining you do whenever Iām around,ā Rex deadpanned.
#korkie didn't even do anything poor guy#ahsoka's just throwing him under the bus like 'yep it is definitely korkie's fault that i got drunk.'#and rex doesn't buy it lol#soooo anyway. this is my very first foray into writing rexsoka and they're both firmly in the denial stage rn!#(I don't normally ship it due to the age gap but since they're only 3-4 years apart in this au and they met when she was 17 and not 14#I figured if i was gonna spitewrite a rexsoka fic then the medieval setting would be the one to do it in!)#fun fact! i had contemplated actually having them be a couple in the ACTUAL medieval au and even came up with a few fun scenes!#but i scrapped it in favor of a funnier idea#but that meant i had to scrap the scenes too#BUT by writing a fic in the same setting but not the same universe i can still write those scenes!#fic snippet#fic sneak peek#spite writing#ahsoka tano#captain rex#rexsoka#annnyyyywaaaaaay posting now before i overthink and doubt myself uwu#cause writing semi-controversial ships that i know some of my tumblr buddies might not like makes me nervous lol#but hey i'm just turning it into a game. i'm calling it 'will i lose followers for posting about this ship and how many will i lose'#star wars medieval au

big epiphany you guys. big. huge.
#cliffnotes for context: smute almost finish masters. smute think ohā maybe phd not crazy wacko shitā maybe i can try#but smute also low self esteem. with any small setback - smute think oh what is point. smute bound to fail#problem is: smute genuine self doubt = smute quotidian frustration#ok normal english now#so thats what i realized today. a lot of the ''small'' things i dream of (financial independenceā a nice little apartment etc) are#expressions of some low level frustration with my nomadic broke student life#rather than genuine desires. and as dumb or as#duh#obvious as that may sound rn#its actually huge for me that i was able to recognize the difference today#this question of what i will do after i graduate has been haunting me for the past year#and i am now realizing that a lot of my own arguments have nothing to do with what i want#just because they're things i don't currently have doesn't mean they would be fulfilling#and#again. duh.#but like. between this debilitating self doubt and certain external pressures š¤Ø it was hard to see the difference#anyway i basically just explored some alternative scenarios today#like specific scenarios. went on indeed found some really good stuff and tried to imagine my life a year from now if i took this or that jo#and the end result was that i fucking hated it. they were all great options on paper but the takeaway was that i would never forgive myself#if i didnt give this a try. if i prioritized some vague notion of independence or this idea of ''settling down'' or whatever the fuck#over the one thing that ive got going for me#like i still don't know if the academic path will be any more fulfilling than some other job#god knows my entire academic career so far has been an insane uphill battle. but it's also been so fucking rewarding. like nothing else#and i also still dont know how genuine this wish is#if it's not maybe still about proving myself to some imaginary authority#but like. how long can you psychoanalyze yourself before your goddamn head explodes#no matter how pure my motivation is im beginning to understand that i dont want this to be the end of the road#and maybe that's enough#&

(Pacing with haunted eyes) My friends like me. My friends like me. My friends like me. They do not secretly hate me. They are not talking behind my back. They are not plotting to traumatize and abandon me. If we do part ways it is not malicious on their end. They do not secretly hate me. My friends like being around me. I am allowed to have friends. Not everyone will toss me aside. I'm not simply a tool for others. People can be nice. I can be treated well. People like me.
#I know Sinclair likes me. I don't doubt that. It's been at my side for over 3 years now. But it's really hard with othersā you know?#Sinclair is someone I understand and can trust. I struggle with that with others. Because I really can never know?#So many times I've let myself become attatched and have friends and think I was liked only for it to horribly fall apart#āŖļø

oh yeah the way mass effect made me think of portal which is surely what youtube was doing too in sliding me a portal related video which made me think of like ah yes that little harmonizing thing want you gone credits song does, another banger. then i was like wait speaking of secret losersongs filmed rehearsal videos just the other day was reexperiencing like code monkey's really a banger as well, the way that part of the chorus could have one line end on One Pitch then the next line end a half step up but Doesn't & that pwns actually. then going hang on and they're both jonathan coulton. they're All jonathan coulton (adding in: wow just like will putting still alive on his off the shits jared kleinman a.m. pump up playlist)
#portal / 2 / 2's co-op mode; the rare VideoGames i've Actually Played#the rare puzzle centric games that pwn b/c the Parameters & Goals are always sufficiently clear....#so i did not play mass effect at the time or since. meanwhile i did happen to meet ellen mclain once. wah#doubting that mass effect had any characters singing a song over the credits. Maybe.#but seems plausible indeed the most any individual sings is the optional source material for modern major general / scientist salarian#and that has no Complete Version until here's william lmao. good for him. & those games coming out when he was a little college lad....#wait what the. mass effect the first & portal the first released a month apart in '07??? i guess that tracks lmao but#happy birthday video games....portal 2 in '11; me3 in '12. weird that i was Also in college#''great day to not be in high school'' post like hell yeah it is & i evaded high school entirely lmfao#which was a major motivation in going to college. i can just cut out [school years] that's what i'm talking about. & it did.#hang in there everyone in high school. or middle school god forbid. or college even though it's Also indeed better. lord#just another thing like well try not to die i suppose while put through endless [pass test]#anyways then this full version is created & will sings it!!! & kills it!!! cosigned all the mass effecties....#suppose it's plausible that will ''in college doing musical theatre times'' would look up the composer of credits bops & go from there#let me put together a cabaret solo show & oh gee i dunno....

i've just now found the words to articulate this but i personally think steve harrington is not a domestic life kinda guy. not meaning domestic relationship, i mean he's not going to be a school teacher coasting on calm waters. i think til like mid-late 30s he's gonna be clubbing by night, working shitty diners by day. until robin and her phD having ass forces him to be a permanent resident of her couch. yes with her partner living there too.
#this is just how i envision it#stranger things#steve harrington#stobin#platonic stobin#i truly believe robin will FORCE steve. i think he will not have the dignity to ask but he will complain about his living arrangement#every day with hopes she will ask him and she finally gets the hint and at that point he's like NOOnoooo i'm used to it :( it's ok....#and then they have the whol back in forth thing#she wins bc she starts stealing things out his apartment and he eventually realizes all his stuff is at robin's house.#and YES robin can pay to support her partner / herself and her codependent bff since the summer before senior year#she will have a job with full benefits no doubt in my mind#also she will be clubbing with steve occasionally. esp in her 20s

just so you know how normal the UK is, left wing climate change activists and anti-monarchy protesters are getting jail time and beaten for simply holding up banners and being considered disruptive whilst right wing bullshitters against shit like ULEZ (literally about having areas that are specifically for ultra low emissions so we, y'know, don't constantly have to breathe in fucking car fumes and other pollutants because some fucking people actually bizarrely want to???) and road safety limits EVEN FUCKING RIGHT NEAR SCHOOLS are driving basically massive vehicles through the streets and are not considered a disruptive protest
#this is also after being a year or so into a fucking protest bill where the government can cherry pick which protests to break apart#also naturally police are turning off bodycams because of course they are#and a van was stopped by police because 'they had reason to believe they were going to disrupt the tory party conference'#also laurence fox - known fascist - was yelling in public about protecting children from trans people#and i haven't heard shit about the covid inquiry because bozo the clown stepped down in a tantrum when he wouldn't hand over his phone#despite the fact that probs about 17 parties that he was involved in took part in and around 10 downing street#DURING A FUCKING PANDEMIC IN DECEMBER 2020#WHEN EVERYONE WAS MADE TO FOLLOW THE RULES OR BE SANCTIONED#there's a giant wall in London with all the Covid victims and with the darkest irony#it's literally opposite the Houses of Parliament#and i highly doubt any of those people in there - especially the higher powers - have even fucking visited it#this is also the same fucking country that attacked a vigil for a woman brutally murdered by a police officer#claiming it was an unlawful gathering#whilst ignoring the christmas parties at downing street and the anti lockdown protestors#vent#rant#uk politics#my heart is fucking dead i don't have the fucking enthusiasm anymore#i wanna go back so damn much#my family and I do not have many friends now as a result

u ever cringe at something u know ur characters gonna have to do š
#retro literally only knew her dad for 16 years#sheās gonna have no sense of boundaries#retro and Sage are both disabled in different ways and retro loves to tinker and build stuff#but I feel like safe would be so weirded out if he expressed interest in tinkering with her chair for obvious reasons#retro would have to take it apart to understand it#and it would just be fucking invasive#š#I doubt retro would do all that but at least in season one thereās that like#boundary stepping feeling#but it must be done for character development
