#but most of all the sublime

The problem with the art instinct is that sometimes it makes sense. You see a beautiful sunset or a flower and you’re compelled by it, eyes taking in every shimmer of the light or the grace of the forms.
Other times you have to hold back the need to take a picture of the fish in ice at 99 Ranch Market
#listen#the colors are beautiful yes#but to me it’s the eyes#they see everything and nothing#they speak of companionship and isolation#comedy and tragedy#reality and the surreal#but most of all the sublime#there’s nothing that captivates me quite like the fish counter or any depiction of fish#just a buzzing bee#art#sublime#fish#marine life#tw death

Happy "it wasn't christmas yet!" to those who celebrate 🥳
#ace attorney#miles edgeworth#what do i tag this as aaaa#turnabout goodbyes#manfred von karma#almost christmas#hii i worked real hard on this one -twirls hair-#while discovering the ins and outs of procreate dsjhfkjdfh#i almost gave up the entire project bc i couldn't get VK's hand right#but it worked out in the end#i always think about Von Karma's plan in 1-4 it drives me nuts#he planned this for 15 years and had a plan A and B just in case they'd get the real killer#all to make sure the Edgeworth family dies in the most agonising way possible#amazing. sublime. aa1 is still my favorite game by far#and 1-4 is still my favorite case. it blew me away. stellar game design and insane storytelling#i showed this drawing to my dad and tried to explain the symbolism and that was. hard without the full context HAHA

...you know with a fandom that has lasted 30 years I'm sure I'm not saying anything new here, but 'right after his best friend from when he was thirteen (who he newly reunited with and asked to sleep over at his apartment. For Reasons) seemingly flicked his nipple (!!???? mark I have questions) to set him up for a prank and then cupped the back of his neck with rough affection in a deeply homoerotic way' sure is an incredibly specific moment for the camera to deny us access to fraser's expression fhksjafhas
(especially with the pattern over the many many times we see a woman hitting on him where his face will be clearly visible, with his expression placidly (one could be forgiven for starting to suspect tactically) uncomprehending/confused or uncomfortable. though we see him speak of specifically victoria for the first time turned away from the camera -- from behind, and only getting the faint reflection of his face in the window, to much the same effect. I think I might be on to something here.)
#I am definitely going to be looking out for that all over the place now haha. what does it mean. what does it MEAN#due south#benton fraser#listen actual overt queer rep is of course a good thing for us to have now. many MANY things sucked about how it used to be#we should not go back there. it was a dark time. how quickly some of us forget now that we have a wealth of things to choose from#but it used to be you had to suffer through things like the SGA episode 'the shrine' which is an amazing episode but ends#with the most intelligence-insulting no-homo inserted heterosexuality bullshit you've ever seen. and you just had to take it#you just had to grin and bear it. children I tell you those were dark days and we must not return to them#BUT we used to get some absolutely insane shit when the love dared not yet speak its name on network tv that's hard to match#we must put this amount of Texture and Insane-Making Implications into our current day queer fiction#we have to level up our sublimation game I think that's partly what makes the locked tomb so powerful#this show is incredible at the queercoding not queerbaiting balance honestly. probably because it takes even its silly characters#so seriously and so rarely surrenders even an inch to meanspiritness#(can't believe we had an episode with a whole kink club in it and I didn't flinch even once. i wasn't even worried I'd have to flinch#at any point. such is the acceptance and generosity of the tone we're working with here the majority of the time)#and then of course the riding off into the sunset together ending does cement all of that definitely at the end#for which I am very grateful haha#'I'm still proud (of you)' is such an INCREDIBLY kind and extremely fraser thing to say to mark in that moment tho. what the fuck

barty is the type of guy to put his legs out when you walk past him then act surprised when you trip
barty is relatively easily domesticated if he cares about his partner enough (compared to, say, someone like evan), but it's like one of those situations where someone's keeping a jaguar as a housepet.
he has to trip you and be a little mean to you, sometimes. it's in his nature. it's his enrichment
#a#this is why rosekiller is so healthy... barty is sublimating all of his more violent impulses into laying the most unhinged pipe imaginable#and being so so mean about it !!

ever go through a fandom ordeal so mortifying, messaging so next-level bad and invalidating and crazymaking, it actually breaks you out of your unexplained lifelong trauma of ever writing anything creatively because you have got to deconstruct how shit that take is
because I have this original story idea where the (actual, redeemed) antagonist makes the fantastical therapy support group he's in worse because he's always been a generally abrasive guy who coworkers thought it was "karmic" to humiliate randomly in a cruel prank they don't know/care was traumatic, and I Am Jack's Complete Lack Of Surprise it only makes him worse not better because what the flaming fuck does suffering (+cyclic invalidation of said suffering) "teach" but make him want to visit more on others, and incite paranoia in others because it's totally borked his sense of what actual responsibility/consequences he bears and lol Who Can You Trust, what does fix him is other characters absolving him of the "guilt" (+validating the undeservedness) of what others did to him so he can take responsibility for actions that are his and no one else's also quit his toxic fucking job
you get three guesses and the first two don't count for what I realized subconsciously then consciously inspired that
#also the mc is someone who takes themself too seriously as a defense mechanism to sublimate an objectively humiliating trauma#and kind of just ended up autistic because it's me writing this. so they're the most Ford-coded of all#thoughts on The Bullshit

Big fan of my body chemistry reacting to alcohol by making me bubbly and active and also a vocal lover and appreciator of women
#anyways: Ven Drink 5+ Beers and Not Compliment Random Women Challenge Impossible#also THAT being said hilarious in one night ive got recompared visually to the zigzag papers guy and jesus christ of nazareth#both of which ive heard many . many times . when ive had long hair its just like There look upon the Son of God (or)#There Look Upon Zigzag Man#and ALL THAT BEING SAID................................... i sang elvis and steve miller for karaoke#one of the most strange and sublime choices ive ever done made . i was drinking like an Amount when i was like 20 nothing crazy but#it set me back from that time and now being so far removed from it let alone just understanding myself so much better its like . im smart#actually and am pretty correct about myself and some weird proof was that i am one of the weird few who might just benefit from alcohol#at this point in my life in a weird way to get done what i want to get done i guess. which is. awesome. and has brought me such incredible#lil oppurtunities to just show people myself with no reservations and fucking live a little (and not like a shut in goob)

tierlist of every touhou character ranked by their fumo count (only including base fumo types, so not including nendoroid plus, deka, etc) bc i was feeling slightly insane that gift made lost word alts of reimu and marisa instead of. Any of even the popular characters they havent touched yet (its weird that byakuren doesnt have one right. like is it me or is that strange??)
#probably made a mistake somewhere but OH WELL!!!!<3#most of the characters in 2fumo tier just have “1.5” design updates#and everyone in 3 has both a 1.5 design and an alternate outfit thats either based on kourindou or a game specific design#or be youmu and have the. that one. the bad game. clenching teeth so glad theyre doing more of those#is it even selling that well? mysterious swordmaster youmu was in the first made to order run and she is STILL in stock#whatever (feeling spiteful wants to see lost word flop at all possible turns)#bri talks#touhou#please ggigft please. please kosuzu. please. please? Listen#anyway sorry for being a fumo guy its not my fault theyre sublime little guys and i have been poisoned with collector brain#man i am going HAM in tags today bri cannot stop talking it seems#hi if youre reading this hope youre well:)

years later and i can still safely say the walking dead season 7 premier remains one of the best crafted episodes of television i’ve ever seen
#it is hands down the most traumatising thing i’ve ever watched#the acting from all of them is sublime#but especially andrew lincoln and lauren cohan#the music is devastating and gorgeous#the cinematography is beautiful even when its gruesome#they made up for the poorly timed cliffhanger of the s6 finale by giving us a brutal and emotional premier#i cannot stress enough how much i love that episode#and that is even though it killed my favourite character in the most brutal way#that’s how fucking good it is that i still adore it#the walking dead#twd

The problem with single thread embroidery is that it’s weird as hell to not have a knot at the end of the thread, to just be out and free in the wind, able to slip right off at any moment and only need to rethread the needle to start going again, to be caught on any imperfection of thread and just continue on like nothing’s wrong because what, am I going to undo the last ten stitches just because a bit caught? No
Because it’s actually way easier and cleaner and prettier to satin stitch with a single thread than doubled
#Embroidery#I guess lol#I /will/ double thread the bigger sections because it's just more practical but the smaller sections that I can line and fill in one thread#I mean why wouldn't I it's easier and better in most regards#Granted I'm practicing without a stabilizer of any kind on a somewhat loose-knit half-tightened scrap handkerchief#But that's really neither here nor there we don't start practicing on our best paper we work our way up#Embroidery is all a ruse really I'm just pacing the length of my cage feral and hungry and am sublimating that feeling into thread-laying#It's giving me practice so I'll count that for something#Lol

bringing back queerbaiting just to show fanfic writers how to portray a properly unhealthy insane relationship. you are all not getting it.
#it's all followthrough with no sweltering homoerotic tension with you people. where's the restraint.#where's the insane behavior driven by the most poorly sublimated lust anyone has ever seen

Seeing someone's awful, self-righteous, bad faith, rage bait take and realising that you already have them blocked for their other dogshit opinions 👌👌👌
#barbie Ken voice: SUBLIME.#You know when someone identifies themselves as a queer poc and like leverages it in a way that is so cognitively dissonant and embarrassing?#like bro you're giving us hot qpocs a bad name youre scaring the hoes 💀💀💀 stoppppp 💀💀💀#You can't leverage your status as a poc over another poc#especially when you are specifically talking about Thai culture and the person you're bitching about is literally half thai#especially when all perth said was I had friends that would watch every BL religiously and now there's so much coming out that they can't#so ''I think the BL industry is becoming oversaturated because the target audience can no longer physically keep up with the output''#is a perfectly reasonable thing to say???#especially as someone that is looking for roles in said industry? like they don't want to be in an unwatched unprofitable show?#he is a professional BL actor he has worked on two of the most profitable BL's that have come out of Thailand in the last like 2 years#being like ''his professional opinion doesn't matter because he's straight''#and ''I clearly have more experience with the BL industry because I consume the finished product'' is. ??? questionable???? at best???#speaking as a queer person of colour who has 2 years experience in the TV industry: oversaturation is a word that is really commonly used#it is a real worry for people that are working in a genre and it's a way to say like what is going to be innovative and popular#and how can I get on that wagon#because it's a career you're not just looking at the output at the end (the show) you are looking at the entire process from start to finish#That's literally all Perth was doing???#sorry it upset your sensibilities as a BL consumer but he was talking from the perspective of a BL professional#anyway what the fuck ever lmao

Some wips
#Inko and Izuku#Who are supposed to be put together#Is a fun little comic#The kiri in the kenough hoodie will have tetsu in the same hoodie#Which might end up being a bday post for those two#Then SUBLIME is for a kiribaku comic#I've started other stuff too cuz I like to start stuff and don't finish#Jk that's not true#Most of the time#Won't do all those tags since it's just messy wips
