hhrrrggghhhh it seems every time I have the motivation and energy to draw my tablet decides to start dying on me again :(
So I'm doing the slightly smarter thing and looking at investing in a new one and also a separate utility laptop for work/writing/gaming/anything that Isn't drawing which I've been meaning to do for a w h i l e
#catfish speaks#also looking at.#not getting the most expensive retail brand price while im at it#doing my research where i need to and making sure i get reputable stuff#but keeping a Budget in mind#because i would also really really like to save up for more long term goals#i could. maybe make stuff and sell it to go towards this#hmmm is that a good idea or just a late night Thought#ough i love the planning stage cos everything seems possible and no snags have happened yet :')#snags haven't hit yet so it all seems possible :')#anyway#hopefully plan this long term#i made a separate channel in my personal discord for tech links to things#which is miles nore than i usually do#i just. want to hav a reliable piece of hardware that i can draw on :')#guess i should probably work on my current tablet a bit more on my day off#ah well

the anon saying they wish vaschete were plushies inspired me
.
#oh no#oh#oh boy#they're adorable#I'm sorry but I'm just mentally smooshing their soft round little heads together#their expressions!#the teensy paws#really feeling that cute aggresion#you made their faces translate into simplified plush form so well#I'd be lying if I said it never crossed my mind how neat it would be to have plushies of them#not as merch but like to keep as mascots and have them sit contently next to each other in some nook of my home#I'm not completely hopeless at sewing but I've never designed patterns quite as complex as this#and I think commissioning a professional for a set is likely beyond my budget so eh one can dream#gift art#makedamnsvre#own characters#Machete#Vasco#from a technical point of view#I feel like I'd be adamant about keeping Vasco's ombre ears and muzzle but they could be potentially difficult to execute#unless you airbrushed them by hand or something I don't know how this works#and I'd probably be really picky about the texture of Machete's fluff as well#finding a faux fur with the right length curl and springiness might be hard#honestly I think I might have easier time if I tried art doll/ooak route because that permits more painting and sculpting than pure sewing#but then the squish factor would suffer

I swear tumblr zoomers describe Korrasami's relationship like historians looking at actual gay relationships
"They were just good friends"
"Their relationship was so ambiguous"
"There was nothing too special with them"
#korrasami#i need you guys to understand#the censorship that korrasami faced#was SO MUCH DIFFERENT and aggressive#than the censorship that relationships like lumity face today#i understand that korrasami seems underwhelming#but keep in mind#their relationship being this watered down/censored#almost got the entire show completely nuked off the planet#if you are going to say some nasty shit about korrasami#(or even just the legend of korra as a whole)#do your research about the BS bryke had to face#you need to understand the misogynoir/queerphobia/bad scheduling/unclear direction/budget cuts/etc#that they had to face in order to do this#ALSO this is factually wrong#as korra and asami canonically kiss in the series

one thing I haven't seen anyone say about watcher yet, but has really disappointed me, is that only three months ago they mentioned in the truth about filming ghost files video that they had to let go of 5 (if I'm remembering the number properly) employees. and when I watched that video I was disappointed that hey hadn't planned the business properly to avoid things like that, but they are primarily creatives, so I figured there would be some business mistakes made along the way. but then hearing they just hired the 2 worth it guys and are reviving an expensive show... I feel like they could've prevented the lay offs better
#watcher#i know they said steven's more business-minded but as someone who did their schooling in business i have constantly questioned their choices#they have just consistently made bad start-up decisions#just the firing and then hiring in such close time really irked me because (and im not saying this is reality)#it seemed like they freed up part of their budget with that to bring their friends back#idk it's just disheartening to see#i wish i could keep looking at with them being unaware and making bad business decisions but there's a point where they gotta know better#and i know everyone is dogpiling on steven but i don't think a lot of these decisions made without at least one of the ghoul boys agreeing#:/#i feel like they never really went through the bootstrapping phase and that is integral for the majority of start-ups#for at least 5 years - cause most start-ups don't start making money until after that point#this became a whole separate rant in the tags whoops

when ppl get too caught up in the accuracy of situations in fanfiction or if things are super realistic or as they should/would be in real life etc etc im like. my tumblr user in christ. it's fanfiction.
#ff writers don't get paid to put hollywood level research into their stories lol#also keep in mind ff writers don't have professional editors either#ALSO i've read a lot of published books and watched massive scale high budget production tv shows/movies that have put way less#effort into researching n making sure things are cohesive n legit compared to some fanfics i've read#js thinking ab a m00tie who had an anon come for her for something like this n i'm still pissed ab it#just enjoy the fic you're getting to read for free#like obv i think realism makes for a great story and is part of what good writing entails#but?? it's ok to bend the rules in some places?? it's a STORY#that's like getting pissed at a fantasy book for having dragons cuz they don't exist irl#just say u have a bad imagination n go#the author's pen is the will of the world in the story perioddd#either accept them or dont. but don't make fun of or criticize authors if you're not fuckin w it when ur just sittin behind a keyboard#also sometimes i just wanna read stories that don't remind me of the harsh truths of reality lmfao like get outtaaa heeerreee#just writer things

Can you imagine how different the show would be if Paget and AJ never got fired?
#criminal minds#criminal minds evolution#paget brewster#aj cook#i'm just saying#the amount of shit on the show that only happened because of ''budget cuts'' irl#even though they decided to pay Rachel Nichols more than both of them which is fucked up#and Kirsten Vangsness apparently very nearly quit after season 8 which... oof#ok if i keep thinking about this i'm gonna get mad lol

[Image description: A digital drawing of Angie from the film R.H.I.N.O.; Really Here In Name Only. She is on the left of the piece, wearing her first shown outfit of a jumper and shirt, a woolen coat, and a checkered scarf. Her hands are in her pockets, and her expression is blank, but leans a tad dour. She stares off to the left. Next to her right shoulder, there's the phrase "really here in name only" which descends with each word. In a panel which molds it borders around the words, there's a drawing of a fire escape. Though their upper half is obscured and unidentifiable, Angie can be seen descending the spiral staircase with Charley in her arms, as denoted by the small blue jacket there. There's a green expanse behind it. The background of the piece is purple and the lineart is a dark green. The colours have a purple-tone to them, and are fairly dim and desaturated.]

like i wouldnt mind like. Not having new linear games post 5 its judt that sims 4 wasnt even supposed to Be The Sims 4 it was a last minute pivot and the base code is so outdated and was broken On launch so like. i just wish we could have the final actual sims game be like. one that was always intented to be a major sims release AND be intended to be so long term . yk
#i dont even want like. Ooh major graphical updates whatever if sims 5 was announced and they looked photorealizstic id hurl i wouldnt play#it#my ideal would ig be sims 4 with a touch more realism style wise. if this makes sense#like its a bittt too cartoony for me but i like the like. Clay hair or whatever SJFNFJ. and i think having it be simple in basegame means#you can customize it easier + itd run better on more pcs#so im fine eith that. i would nottt want it more cartoony#i also like. I understand the sims is like. an all ages game i do sometimes wish that the animations in 4 were a bit toned down#like i dont mind silly goofy wacky stuff i think its fun and like. The sims has always been a bit sillay yk. but the overexaggerated#animations r sometimes like -_-.... to me. but thats personal preference#IDK. the tags that show up when i type idk r so funny. do i ever know anything. sources say no#BUT ya i just rly wish like. if this is what they wanna do i wish theyd give us One more full game give it lots of time and love and rly rly#focus on having it excel at like. being this partnof the sims#since they wanna have like. Other sims games that have online features and multiplayer and everything. they could use that to make sure that#ts5 was Rly solid as a foundation and as like. ykwim..... they could plan updates for the future And dlc or whatever and i just think itd be#a better move than trying to make sims 4 happen#bc i judt dont think With all the updates in the world. sims 4 wont ever be like. what it couldve been. yk. i just dont think you can make#it work without Fullllyyyy just starting over.#and at this point with like..so many modders and stuff and everything and how much dlc there is thatd be impossible Esp if they keep#releasing new stuff which. They will ^_^#idk. im excited for some other lifesim games im keeping my eye out#but i rly do love the sims and i just wish that it could be as good as it could be. It has such a huge budget and team and like. if ea would#stop just trying to make as much money as possible off it i feel like they could make Such an amazing game. not to put down indie gamedevs#at all the games jve been looking at look Incredible like.. yk. but the fact those games are so good eith FAR smaller teams and budgets is#like. imagine what we could have if the sims had that amt of care and time put into it.#but whatever whatever whatever. sorry im just rambling#again ik what i would want from my platonic ideal of a sims game isnt what everyone would eant#but idk. i feel like another good step might be like. making the other sims games more available and updating them so they run better on#modern pcs. but i dont think thatll ever happen DNDNFJFNFN.

oh goddd we just got to the part in our hxh 1999 rewatch where it switches from the main series to the OVAs (mid yorknew arc!!) & the change in art/animation style is so much more jarring than I remember. it has neither the old school 90s charm & nice soft color plate of 99 style nor the bright, crisp & reliably on model character drawings of the 2011 style. my god it just looks like absolute shit. the opening/ending is horrific too. no wonder I just deleted the OVAs from my memory entirely
#and to think ive been demanding dark continent ovas. if they'll be anything like the low budget bullshit of these ovas then KEEP THEM‼️#ppl ask (well no but I ask myself) whether I prefer 99 or 2011 character designs. truthfully I enjoy both equally#anything but the ovas#oh but there are certain moments during yorknew specifically in the 99 series where kurapika just doesnt even look like himself at all#they change the shape of his eyes too much. they fully go from giant moe shoujo eyes in exam arc to edgelord bishie eyes & its jarring#& its not just off model moments they intentionally draw it like that. I like the shift better in 2011#but they give him blue eyes in 99 instead of gray which is cute. except BOTH are wrong theyre SUPPOSED TO BE FUCKING BROWN#but only the trashed 98 pilot got that right. they also made his hair brown for that one though it was weird#dont mind me im just talking about things absolutely no one but me cares about again

none of you know that yesterday i struck up a deal with a very famous local theatre for private performances with quite a lot of money that isn’t mine
#i love student politics i love having an insane budget i get to spend however i want#keep in mind i live in an incredibly corrupt country and our predecessors did quite a lot of money laundering and now we actually get to do#and i just struck a deal! between one of the oldest faculties and one of the oldest theaters! bringing prestige back into academia!#don’t know why i generally don’t talk about it on here it’s literally my job except i’m not getting paid i’m just under constant stress

Shadows of Fear: The Lesser of Two (1.7, Thames, 1971)
"You don't understand, do you, you never did. People round here -"
"People! People are stupid."
"No, they're not, they're ordinary, they're just simple people."
#shadows of fear#the lesser of two#1971#single play#horror tv#classic tv#kim mills#john kershaw#godfrey quigley#margery mason#geoffrey hughes#elizabeth burger#dorothea phillips#john rolfe#thames#a return to form for the series with an impressively cerebral treatment of a minor plot. Quigley‚ it is revealed (very slowly) is a newly#released convicted killer (of a 'girl' we learn; no more detail is offered‚ allowing the mind to fill in all sorts of horrible details)#he returns to his home and his family but is entirely unwelcome. the local community unite to make it clear that he must leave. that's#about all there is to the story‚ but Kershaw's treatment is very mature‚ almost courageous. Quigley maintains his innocence but is believed#by nobody‚ except perhaps (perhaps) Mason as his uncertain wife. slowly tho‚ Kershaw makes clear that innocent or not‚ the real horror here#is the mindless prejudice of the community Quigley once belonged to. largely unseen (still a budget production remember) they form a#faceless mob‚ whose presence outside the home (and intrusion into it‚ through bricks thrown or petitions delivered) lends a thick feeling o#unease as the play wears on. the couple's son (a young Hughes) is resolutely with the mob‚ even going so far as to arrange a shady set up#which could mean death for his estranged father. it's important to note though that Quigley isn't entirely sympathetic‚ nor is his guilt#of the crime entirely in question; rather it's irrelevant to the particular situation being explored‚ and actually the play is all the#stronger for muddying those waters and keeping the viewers sympathies in flux. it's a challenging‚ fascinating piece of writing#and well met by a cast of seasoned and always very strong (but never hugely successful) actors#Mason and Quigley in particular carry the play in their unbearably tense reacquaintance in the early scenes

BTW if this is your first time protesting, please keep in mind your abilities.
What I mean by that- is take a look at yourself, and your privledges. How can you use that to the protests advantage?
Please make sure to listen to your fellow protestors, but one thing that can help- is that if you are white, white passing- put yourself between the cops and hijabi protestors. Ask to connect arms with them. Stay grouped TIGHTLY together.
Do not push cops directly. If they are grabbing a fellow protestor and trying to drag them out, you and a buddy should close in and cut the cop off. Bring your fellow protestor back into the crowd. Keep them safe.
Cops will do their best to break up large groups into smaller ones to make it easier to detain, arrest, or beat innocent people.
And on another note- if you have the resources, please remember to bring extra head coverings, or extra fabric that can be used as such. Not only to help fight against gas and smoke attacks, but also to throw over the many hijabi students who get attacked.
#free palestine#palestine protest#if you or someone you know are hurt scream as LOUD as you can for a medic. people who know what they are doing will find you#gas masks are preferable for any smoke and gas related attacks bjt thats not always very budget friendly#also remember to not instigate or retaliate bc they WILL use it as “they were getting violent!!” DOESNT MATTER THAT THEY STARTED IT#ALWAYS think about your group's formation. ALWAYS look for the nonviolent option#for the sake of your fellow protestors. if you are white and start shit YOU arent gonna be the one facing the harshest consequences#it will be one of your POC peers who DIDNT DO SHIT who is gonna feel the backlash#all things to keep in mind as the protests ramp up

hii i’ve been watching you for a couple months now and i was wondering what mic and camera you use?? im trying to start a youtube channel soon and i wanted some kind of foundation and idk where to start 😵💫
hii!! thank you for watching my videos!!
i use the Blue Yeti Mic! If i’m honest, i don’t know that i’d super recommend it for audio beginners. it takes some work to set up and picks up like EVERY sound imaginable. but there is also an abundance of set up tutorials online for it! Blue Snowball is also what i started with and it’s half the price! I got mine used for $15 dollars so definitely look around for that kind of thing if you are on a budget!
My camera is a Canon M50 Mark 2!
I also use canons continous power supply & an elgato capture card for the camera!
and i record /stream using OBS
#keep in mind when i bought both these things they were significantly cheaper.#my camera was half the price it is now so sadly i can no longer call it a budget friendly camera#(not affordable in general but you know…)#sillee little thoughts#asks#FAQ

i've watched only a few scenes of the movie WALL-E and i hate it so much 😮💨 and i also dislike all the Pixar movies released after that one. they really peaked with Ratatouille in my eyes
#i said in my eyes!!#they had a slight renaissance with Toy Story 3 but then they continued making only flops#i dislike UP too! so much 🚬#and Coco is good but not that good. there's something about it that annoys me lol#haven't watched Elemental but just thinking about it i feel second-hand embarrassment#i know all these movies were a lot of work but i must have extremely high standards when it comes to Pixar / Disney#because if anything there's BUDGET#anyway i love Ratatouille so much🥹 the other day i watched Everything Everywhere All at Once and the Ratatouille reference made me so happy#also i've been rewatching The Simpsons (still in the 90s seasons so all bangers) and i keep seeing Brad Bird in the credits. his mind#anyway it's not nostalgia cause Toy Story is probably THE animated movie of america (after Shrek)#you have to look no further than Finding Nemo vs Finding Dory... the difference is appalling#my sister was watching Coco again so that's why i'm talking shit. apologies#📓

Me: I am a totally reasonable person capable of accepting that some people won’t enjoy my favorite media and not freak out over that.
Someone: (expresses even a mildly negative opinion about Psychonauts)
Me: I am no longer reasonable, I am ready to murder.
#i have to admit I have an extremely parasocial relationship with psychonauts#because my dad is/was personal friends with Ron Gilbert and Tim Schafer#(wrt tim less so but still)#so I feel like I have a moral obligation to stan all their works#and objectively yes criticism isn’t the end of the world#but any time someone makes like a subjective value judgement like#”oh this sucks so bad they were so stupid for doing this”#I want to smash someone’s kneecaps#excuse me those are my dad’s friends and you are being mean to them!#objectively it’s not like they read mean comments about them on social media#but frankly on principle I think calling developers stupid for not agreeing with your subjective tastes#is extremely shitty of someone to do#psychonauts#psychonauts 2#One part of why I think I feel this way also has to do with the fact I was following the development of the game since it was announced#and if you aren’t aware#microsoft fairly late into the game’s development gave Doublefine a huge amount of money towards development#and the creators have made statements that prior to that they legit weren’t even going to have boss battles#because they had to cut them out as a result of the budget issues#so I feel like basically any criticism of the second game for being rushed or underdeveloped or even like anything#NEEDS to keep that in mind and factor it into their critique#treating flaws of a game as deliberate failures on the part of developers is my berserkbutton#my Posts
