+ bonus

#count orlok feeding on both thomas and ellen in the exact same way #after leading them to bed biting them right over their hearts grinding on them while being naked #thomas hallucinating ellen eerily hovering above him naked with blood on her mouth as if she's the one feeding on him instead of orlok #smarter people than me will probably come up with a proper analysis of this parallel so i'm just leaving this here #i find the way these three are so intertwined with each other so fascinating #nosferatu #nosferatu 2024 #nosferatu (2024)#count orlok #ellen hutter #thomas hutter #nosferatu spoilers #nosferatu 2024 spoilers #parallels #cw nudity #my edit

What was that you said about memory? "A monster," was it?

#iwtvedit #iwtv #interview with the vampire #louis de pointe du lac #armand #lestat de lioncourt #daniel molloy #anyway obviously these are at different periods and contexts in their lives but nonetheless #i'm fascinated by the different versions of characters we see filtered through who is telling the story at that moment #how they remember themselves and how they remember others #and the gaps in this set are just as interesting! season 3 maybe i can do a follow up #how does lestat see himself. how does he see armand or louis #how would daniel see him? etc

some vash sketches as i figure out how i'm gonna draw him

#trigun #vash the stampede #digital art #fanart #i feel like i'm probably gonna lean towards making stampede vash kinda transform into his manga counterpart #but i'm. uncertain still #vash is someone i wanna rotate around in my head and see all his angles #and i feel like stampede is such a fascinating angle of his character #cause it's vash. but he's also very different from his other versions #rambling in notes is what i do baby #shart from the heart

i didn't really notice before it was pointed out to me, but in the iliad, traumatic injury only has two outcomes: immediate (or near-immediate) death, or a short period of recuperation before the injured person can return to battle apparently no worse for wear (see diomedes, odysseus, menelaus, agamemnon, etc etc). there are no slow lingering deaths or infections or persistent disabilities or amputations. and i suppose that works narratively, because "X kills Y during his aristeia" is a definite triumph while "X injures Y who lingers in a bed for two weeks before succumbing to a secondary infection" is a lot murkier honour-wise. so the warriors just don't experience those things in the world of the iliad.

BUT if you take a step back and consider the epic cycle, the soldier philoctetes sits abandoned on the island of lemnos while the events of the iliad takes place, and he experiences nothing BUT infection and disability because of his permanently festering leg wound. (as someone with a medical education i admit i'm fascinated by the vividness of the descriptions of the odour, pus, swelling and pain)

it's like philoctetes is forced to endure the infection and lingering wound the rest of his army is spared. and then, when they finally rescue him and bring him to troy in the final year of the war, the physician podalirius (who was presumably present a decade back when philoctetes first got sick) completely heals him straight away! i know there are various related prophecies, but it also seems like the location is a crucial factor. i'd like to imagine it's the gods who want to keep the plains of troy so straightforward, full of binaries and no middle ground: a thrown spear can either hit or don't hit, an injured warrior can either die or return in a few days.

#i'm still so so fascinated by philoctetes #perpetual wounds is such a strong mythological idea already and then you get the heartbreaking social aspects into the deal and AH #philoctetes #tagamemnon

The girls are here!!!

#dungeon meshi #maizuru #inutade #izutsumi #benichidori #hien #Was this the Kabru episode that really shows off how perceptive and fascinated by humans to be a foil to Laios"s monster obsession?#Sure was. Was the funny comic I made not yet quite relevant for where the anime is currently at? SURE WAS.#Funny comic will be next week. This week is for THE GIRLS!!!#Tade is adorable and a lot of fun to draw. I really love her friendship with Izutsumi.#speaking of...IZUTSUMI IS FINALLY HERE!#Initially I wasn't going to draw Beni and Hien but I would hate to let the few fans they have.#So here's some Beni and Hien. For all five of you Beni and Hein fans.#Makeup girls are wild because they'll be like 'I'm getting ready to go out!' and then take 60-90 min in front of the mirror.#I adore the bonus comics where Ryoto Kui does the step by steps of how characters do their makeup and hair.#I personally know very little about those things so it's cool to see how thought out it all is.

Watching this again, it becomes incredibly clear in s3 that Nate is teaching Parker how to run her own crew. He fully anticipates that she will be his legacy, and more than anyone else---more than Sophie or Hardison, more than Eliot (though I would argue that Eliot never even slightly wanted it)---he is teaching her how to take over, think like he thinks and plan like he plans. He fumbles some of the emotional stuff, never actually tells her explicitly...but by the time you reach s3 he's clearly all-in. He's decided. Parker is going to be Nate 2.0, with different more exciting bugs than the 1.0 version.

#there's a handful of scenes in subsequent episodes where it's the two of them standing in the control room #and poring over schematics and documents #discussing between them how to move chess pieces around the board. it's subtle but it stands out.#(aftshadowing? I guess? not sure what foreshadowing is when the shadows didn't exist at the time.)#anyway I'm just fascinated by nate and parker. two people who are different in every way except #their weird. it vibrates at the same frequency.#they like art but mostly for non-artistic reasons. they think a lot about insurance plans and security systems.#they don't....really understand people except the 3-4 humans that are sometimes okay.#they both go weak the moment you introduce a child to the mix - but it also throws their alien strangeness in sharp relief.#anyway.#leverage

heeey guess what, I'm obsessed with this idiot flamingo now

#art #ride kamens #ride kamens spoilers #maybe? i don't know when to stop tagging for main story stuff #i took a while getting through it but my god has gambit win taken over my entire brain #especially this moron. he fascinates me #he won't tell anyone his age and the only name he'll give is fralio #he's never had a job in his life. he paints his toenails but not his fingernails. he dresses like a comic relief yugioh villain.#i 100% believe this man taught himself how to speak six different languages but doesn't know what a fraction is #an evil cult brainwashed him into being a villain but couldn't stop him from constantly being distracted by shiny plastic toys and anime #his special skill is animal impersonations #i want to put him on a slide and study him under a microscope. he's everything to me.#kakeru will be the first person to tell you how much fralio sucks and he still spent five whole years pining after this dipshit #then decided to just up and dedicate his entire life to rescuing his stupid friend and bringing him home #and honestly i get it. i've only had not-evil fralio for like two chapters and i'm already ready to pledge my life to him #and i was pretty ready before he got his memory back tbh #give 👏 him 👏 an 👏 audition 👏

One of the most bizarre feelings imo is finding out about a prejudice you didn't know existed

Like. I only recently found out that there's areas IN MY OWN COUNTRY where discrimination against Italian people is a genuine problem

Like

I definitely know WHY I always assumed Racism was a prejudice more dependant on differences in skin colour but holy shit damn yeah okay so there's also ultraviolet racism too huh, we're all just drinking the shitty bitch water then

#I don't know why I'm surprised #And I fear I don't have the education yet to fully grasp this #But in my specific area colorism is the biggest visible aspect of our racist culture #So like #None of this stupid shit makes sense but now it makes EXTRA no sense #Like they ain't even scared cause you look different #But yeah dam n it does drive home that all this crap is politically driven huh #Like as much as fuckers pretending it's science to back up racist rhetoric about why a race is better or worse #It totally does prove that these biases are absolutely arbitrary with no grounds in reality #No heritage is fundamentally DIFFERENT when you get down to it #People is people #Why didn't we talk about this in social studies back in school it's a fascinating angle #It would really have driven it home to a room full of white kids too #We would have been blown away
