Remeber: being anti-capitalist doesn't mean you should glorify the USSR. They were a dictatorship that killed millions of people. They should not be praised, even ironically.

#you can argue the ussr didn't even achive communism #but thats not the main reason obviously #communism #anti capitalism

On autonomy, and what it means to be Obliged to Help.

Bonus:

#a homestuck walks into an antechamber and asks #hey is anybody going to make this dynamic wholly deterministic and thus dubiously consensual by its very nature #ANYWAY bigger ramble below. scroll down like usual #isat spoilers #isat #isat fanart #isat siffrin #isat loop #sifloop #THATS RIGHT WE'RE STILL SHIP TAGGING IT BABYYYY #in stars and time #in stars and time fanart #lucabyteart #RAMBLE START: anyway i think loop is wrong here. they have it backwards. as-- in my opinion--#the main reason they could be called back into existence postcanon is because *their* wish for help is still not complete #they still need help. siffrin still needs help. neither of them will ever stop needing help.#they will thus uphold the wish until the end of siffrin's natural lifespan.#that said. what does it mean that loop can be so wholly forced to abide by siffrin's wants?#(assuming the dagger cutscene posession is them being forced to uphold the 'help siffrin' wish via harsh universe logic)#[as opposed to something capricious and cruel the change god did. which feels out of character for the change god to me?]#much like how the island wish and duplicate objects are neutered by simply sliding off people's brains...#is loop subtly ushered toward their wish? obviously it's not a full override (see: the bossfight). but is there any interference?#and if so. so what? does it matter? if they don't notice? is it even real if they don't notice?#and even if they do notice. the universe leads we follow. how much do either of them value their free will in a belief system like that?#the whole game is dedicated to siffrin habitually NOT excersizing his free will. doing things the same Every Time.#Loop ESPECIALLY does this. predetermined predetermined predetermined even in the FACE OF CHANGE. REFUSING. ANY CHOICE.#Maybe they'd even be comforted by having a universe-ordained purpose even if it is subservient. even if its to Him.#(though. i can't see siffrin enjoying the idea that someone is subservient TO them... then all their suffering is his fault...)#loop got into this mess via WANTING too much. no more free will. can't be trusted with it. take it away from them.#but yeah. gets my greasy detective pony hands all over this. and everyone please do remember i like to make characters Outright Wrong A Lot

trying to psych myself up to finally do oc refs by doing fandom-related refs instead: volume 1

wanted to update my yuma from whatever tf this au is so he was a bit more unique... takes inspo from a lot of different things while also trying to be its own sorta thing? which is fitting given the au ;)

bonus chibi now that i'm also figuring out how tf to do chibis lol:

#my art lol #synth v yuma #yuma synthv #synth v #synthv fanart #synthesizer v #vocaloid #vocaloid fanart #YES I KNOW ITS DIFFERENT but at this rate its the umbrella tag. all vsynth shit goes under there just like on main 😔#sorry for the annoyign watermarks i just dont want this to get stolennn/traced it'll b my joker arc. is2g #like thats never happened to me before as far as i know but now that my art is getting 'better' i begin to get scared that it will happen #if my fanart got stolen i'd def sting a little yeah but not hurt AS bad as if someone stole my original shit. THAT would hurt #one of many reasons why i post less personal oc stuffs. although as mentioned above i AM in an oc mood so i wanna draw em maybe...#and stuff like this is a step to develop a PROPER FUCKING REF STYLE bc i SUCKKKK AT MAKING REFS LOL 😭 BUT I SHOULD GIT GUD #i have a few other refs planned for vocaloid au (i guess???) related shit but they're not done yet. this one was also a wip that i just??#impulsively decided to redo & finish bc i wanted to draw but nothing else i was trying to draw came out right. advantages of many wips #i have SOOO many things i could say abt some of the things that went into this redesign but i dont wanna come off as pretentious 😔💔#obviously it was primarily inspired by the vimalion yuma design but. there's moreeee that i can't explain here bc tag limits and im shy #i do think i want to try and be more intentional with my character designs now so i'm seeing how that goes as i redesign some old ocs #man though this kind of stuff makes me remember i used to LOVEE doing this stuff. and now its even crazierr given art improvement #uaurhghh my head is buzzing w/. so many thoughts. THIS ALWAYS FUCKING HAPPENS I GET SO MANY IDEAS WHEN IM BUSY GFD #this is actually from today though unlike some other things i might eventually post. that'll make more sense soon #and fuckkk i forgot the chain necklace thing on the chibi yeah but i couldnt get it to look good. whatever

i have an entire tor and gor swapping places au in my head but i cant draw

#Im going coo coo over it #Theres just so much like how gorebek would probably be down for the experiments to be strong for dukeage or whatever and then get sent to #Hunt the main crew then the drugs just make him a big scared idiot instead of a badass like he probably wanted lol and then they just have #This super strong angry freak and an alter that gets very sad and scared on witchlight that they just let hang out probably for insider #Info and how strong they are and obviously #I think about the scorched fur i think it would be very crazay especially with a guy that presumably only knows how to be a weapon #Trying to navigate anything emotional wise #Also being fucked up over everything else thats happened to him #Feeling normal and average #I have more to say i said gor only knowing how to be a weapon my brain is filled with torbeks learning he IS a weapon and learning about #Gorbek vs gorbek in swap knowing he is a weapon but barley able to understand his use since tor fronts and being conflicted for the opposit #Reasons torbek never wanting to be used that way and gorebek thinking thats his job ough oiu euthanize me #txt

Lineup of all of the characters that appear long enough to need a visual representation of them in the game lol

#I added a few people that you can randomly run into around town (like at the inn or in the forest or etc) and have very short conversations #with just to kind of flesh out the world a little more in a more natural-ish seeming way. Like nobody in the main cast would really #have much reason to talk about the actual city you're in or anything. Since most of them havent lived there that long anyway.#But if there's a ''city inspector'' that you can run into whilst he's writing up notes examining the local inn. then maybe there could be a #few dialogue options with him where you can ask about things like that. since he would know more about the area as an offical Government #Worker or etc. Optional of course. since I have to be so wary of my natural inclination to lore dump lol and am trying extra hard to make i #all stuff thats easily avoided/skipped. But for the people like ME who deliberately choose to exhaust every possible optional dialogue #option and explore every single inch of the world and try to collect as much information as possible - then there are a few extra places to #do that. Though obviously not all of them just give exposition for like 15 paragraphs blandly. Some you don't really learn anything from #and it's kind of just.. random flavor to make the non-shop map locations more ''lived in'' feeling. Like the random #little girl you can talk to in the park doesn't bizarrely start reading out the wikipedia description of some War that happened 10 years ag #or whatever. she's just complains about school a little and asks if you've tried the nearby ice cream cart treats and etc lol #ANYWAY..#some of the art is so so evil but I'm not going to spend 800 years trying to clean it up and update it. whatever the hell mess I sketched #out in 2018 or whatever is just what I'm keeping lol... it is what it is #One of the many trials of the whole 'briefly work a few months on something and then abandon it almost entirely only to pick up work #on it literally like 4 - 5 yrs later and now you must contend with trying to decipher whatever weird shit you did years ago' experience lol #Also given the population breakdowns of the world in general I think there's an unrealistic amount of jhevona in this lineup since #they're a much rarer species to just see out and about anywhere but.. it IS a global trading center type area. and the game #takes place in the north (the country of Asen. near the coast. for the maybe 2 or less people who actually keep up with my worldbuilding #enough to know where that is lol (the same continent as Navyete (where the avirre'thel live)) and there's a decent concentration #of nothern jhevona only a short ways away so... tee hee..I shall pretend it makes sense and not merely me just wanting #to represent more of that species because I think their lore is interesting lol #I MEAN also realistically there would NOT be a human here because humans are extremely isolated species that don't even know the rest #of the world exists really and human territories are extremely protected from the outside world but... of course it's like.. well we need #at least One of them to be there for the Optional Lore. Same with the Ythrili. But at least those are like.. PLAUSIBLE.. not nonsensically #outlandish. If I had a Verrucalt or something in there THEN that would be truly lore-breaking almost lol #ANYWAY.. rambling that only means anything to me because nobody else knows what I'm even referencing but hbjh #also I think my character designs are so funny in the sense that I really do just love to do the same thing over and over again ghbjh #wow... random asymmetry and belts and arm straps and high collars where the neck is completely covered?? you dont say..how novel

… why are we excessively vilifying one of the characters who are meant to clearly show the concept of humanity being flawed and concept, when it’s clear she’s mentally ill and you guys haven’t done this to literally any other character we’ve met whose been more reliably established as worse… :3

#rhine #sorry. sorry. can I talk about this? I need to #why the FUCK are we doing this #sorry SORRY !!!!!#SHES EVIL I KNOW FHIS.#BUT EHERE ARE THESE IDEAS SPROUTING FROM #SHE WSS.. STRICT?? AND MENTALLY ILL???#guys! albedo is NOT a baby! he’s not gonna be like ‘but my mommy’s good.. 🥺’ if she was THAT fucking horrible #there’s a REASON he had affection for her still #he’s studying humanity he isn’t DENSE #WHY DONT I SEE THIS ATTOTUDE FOR ANYONE ELSE. ONLY HER???#WHAT ABOUT EI. WHAT ABOUT SCARA OR. I DONT KNOW. THE FATUI????????#idk guys! seems silly! and makes me sad #-> SHES EVIL!!!! YES!!!! BUT THATS NOT SLL????#ALL THE SOURCES ESTABLISHING SHES ONLY EVIL ARE. PROPAGANDA AND BIASED #we haven’t even MET her #and all her sources are incredibly mixed #the ONLY main reliable source is bedo #and he clearly establishes. she’s not satan?? hello???#she was cruel. yes. cold. no shit #but she OBVIOUSLY held some affection. and she wasn’t heartless???#she sent him off??? to be with Alice??? who she knew who only showed him with love???#and affection????#these mfs trying TOO hard to antagonize her when she’s more #go onto dottore or some other insane antagonist fi you can’t take nuance. I’m sorry😭#-> okay now that I’m done time to do the monthly promote for nutmegs fic #everyone pleaseeeee read it #Pllleeassdeeeeee read show me and I will lie on ao3 #it will change your life. okay.#it’s the best and most canon characterization of Rhine. SORRY !!!!!!!!!

i know the game basically just came out but how is the story of zenless zone zero so far? gameplay looks fun and i'm kinda interested mostly bc miyabi but i have limited time (and space on my pc) so i'm curious about what others think

#ik the usual advice is “try for yourself and see” and thats fair and all but id still like to hear some opinions #also ik miyabi is not out yet but shes not the only reason im considering playing just. one of the main reasons #obviously im not expecting anything groundbreaking from a patch 1 story but id still like to hear others thoughts #zenless zone zero #hoyoverse #my post

a cute little detail i like in kaguya-sama is that even early-on, like, episode 1, when miyuki is Thinking youll see little constellations in the background

in particular, what looks like the summer triangle. i think its a really really nice way to work his love of astronomy into subtle details that add a bit of extra charm.

his line profile pic is also a constellation. im pretty sure its orion, but somewhat simplified? because its missing meissa at the top if so lol. still overall i think its really cute how he keeps getting associated w constellations. its awesome actually

#kaguya sama #the idea of it being virgo also crossed my mind bc we know he cares abt astrology #but it doesnt look like virgo. virgo is like a square with 4 lines out of each corner #orion is like an hourglass. i dont think theres a hashtag deep reason its orion i think he just stars #the idea of the triangles being capricorn is also kind of funny bc thats kaguyas sign #but while capricorn is also sort of triangle shaped it has like a dip and more stars. this one has Three highlighted #so probably deneb altair and vega #also in a romance show might as well do the summer triangle right? theres a scene where he talks abt it specifically too #even tho the Main Thing for kaguya is obviously the moon

I really wanna do a Morrigan romance run in dao now because I've never actually done one??? Shes like my favorite character in the game but I've never romanced her because she was male warden locked in her romance... I may just also watch a playthrough because I want ideas for Morrigan/Aviae but the idea of dragging myself through the deep roads again.... Shudders

#dragon age #oc: aviae surana #aviae and morrigan dont get together til post witch hunt #aviae goes into the eluvian with morrigan to help her raise kieran and they end up falling in love during that time #so obviously it wont directly follow the way the canon romance goes #however i think seeing the canon romance would help me like. figure out how to portray it #thats the main reason why i don't talk about those two as much because my ideas for it are running a bit low #although i do think of them a lot #aviae and the weird bird that sits on her desk who she talks to in the same voice she talks to her wife in #i started writing somethibg for them a week or two ago but i didn't get far #considering how much i talk about writing i sure do have fuck all to show for it #person with a bajillion wips and no finished pieces: so i started a new thing-

when stede lets the fame get to his head and starts acting like a dick bc he feels like his crew is being poached bc he cant comprehend they might Want to leave, right after his humanizing ned’s crew being the only way he was able to defeat ned bc ned wasnt comprehending what his crew wanted, and then he subsequently gets his ass beat: that was a nice bit of comeuppance

#never forget this is a workplace comedy. and being an asshole is no way to be a leader #tbh thats the main reason stede banishing ed made some sense before bc like he was trying to put his crew’s feelings first even tho he was #struggling with it bc obviously he wanted ed back #the crew is the most important thing ultimately and losing sight of that unity will get ur ass planked #ofmd spoilers

I’m fairly new to the fandom, but I do have a question if you can answer it! Why do people ship Daigo with Aoki / Masato? I tried looking to see if they’ve interacted before, but couldn’t find anything! Sorry for asking I’m just </3 dumb AND I LOVE YOUR ART OF THEM!!! Nerd looking ahhhhhh

hi ! welcome to the community i hope you're having a lovely time so far and ty for enjoyin my stuff :) no need for apologies it's a very fair question to have :]

i cant speak for everyone (all. ten people into masadai anyway) but Personally To Me i just think the idea of them together is very funny. thats quite literally it im afraid..

#snap chats #//twenty page google doc in the background// ignore that. it's mostly for comedic purposes #might also be my fault idk sorry about that. allegedly. idk ive had like three people tell me they started to ship them cause of me 🧍‍♂️#@mementoasts is another person who's drawn masadai and whose stuff i love and am inspod by .. i love their disneyland fic sm ...#there was another artist on twitter who posted a neat drawing of them but i cant remember who they were and i didnt bookmark it //screams//#recently there's been ANOTHER masadai artist ive started following on twitter - @wifekiryu. his account's n/s/f/w fyi before you go looking #he has a tumblr too @foxdies. i say cause i realized as much recently vjeaKLGJALKGJ #oh but I GUESS ill get deeper into why. /i/ personally ship masadai or whatever #first off they're opposing factions yet their character alignments Do Not Match their roles. stereotypically anyway #aoki who leads the 'surface' of society and is meant to be an admirable figure and someone 'just' when really. he sucks LMAO #though that's not atypical of politicians but just from a stereotypical This Is A Respectable Individual perspective of his role #daigo on the other hand leads the 'underbelly' of society- yk comprised of dangerous criminals and outcasts and whatnot #yet as we know him daigo's compassionate and considerate of his men- he doesnt treat them like tools like aoki does #if put in a room with the two daigo would be most people's choice of person to hang out with. probably open a trapdoor on aoki tbh #and i think thats really cool and epic i always love that kinda Subverting Expectations thing #theres also the fact they both started off like. edgy/angsty in the franchise and then brush up down the line #masato does a stronger 180. publicly. obviously but its still really funny they both have to get their act together #if you wanna talk about in-text reasons. there really is none LMAO I TELLS YOU masadai is pure crack #but if i wanted to pull a muscle reaching then there's daigo being on aoki's side while everyone else is on arakawa's during the funeral #im lying of course. mitsu was behind him. rgg tryna make me forget mitsu exist .... put him back in y8 ....#and ofc ichi joins that side to even out the seating but moving on another Goofy Reason is arakawa being like #'the chairman and my son are like p much the same age Surely he knows how he thinks :)'#and then i just think daigo being all smarmy about outsmarting aoki is really goofy and im choosing to interpret that as personal #they both also have issues with their dad. s. dad/s/. anyway.#tbh the google doc tag was a joke but i really could sit here and list every dumb reason why i think theyre funny together #like i started going over the tag limit so uhhhh yeah needless to say i have a lot of. dumb reasons 💀💀💀💀#one day ill use the main text for long rambles like this but todays not that day Point Is my imagination is rampant im afraid #so the short and sweet of it is I Think It's Funny. And They'd Be Terrible Together. Which Is Why It's Funny.#and the unfortunate part is anything i find funny i obsess over for a year so. //gestures to the mountain of bullshit thats my masadai tag/

My ass was trying so hard not to jump up and down with glee playing yttd with my sister and getting to the shin reveal I was like MY GUY MY FUNNY LAD MY SILLY RABBIT

#the klock keeps ticking #yttd #its like i cant get ahead of myself when talking about him cuz theres still a lot not revealed by the end of ch2 but STILLLL #i was keeping my opinions on characters pretty neutral this whole playthrough though my bias towards gin and kai was very apparent lol #and i did start screaming in agony reliving my worst nightmare joe dying #i dont think my sister was nearly as torn up about it as i was though like god ill still never get over it #the first time i played i actually gross sobbed like maybe i was just sleep deprived but i was inconsolable literally never cried that hard #but yeah we did the second main game today and i was like #‘not trying to persuade your vote but heres one million reasons why we should let shin live ahaha’#i dont think she was very happy with her vote aldnks #but yeah i really am gonna be sooo annoying next time we play im literally gonna bring pages of shin analysis with me that i can gush about #it is an interesting thing this character cuz to me like everything about him is so clear like even from the beginning i just didnt buy #the idea that he was genuinely an asshole i knew there had to have been something more going on #and idk if ive made it clear guys…but hes exactly like me guys hes just like me fr #his story hits so hard it feels like my own self insert which is weird cuz obviously thats not true #but like i feel like its either you get it or you dont and if you dont understand exactly what this character feels cuz you feel it yourself #i feel like so much of him just wont make any sense to you #maybe im just being pretentious idk but like if you cant relate to his abuse and just #very blatant bpd then I feel like youll just judge him on how good or badof a person he is #like it just doesnt feel like itd hit in the same way like when i see this character talking about being hopeless and the way his trauma #makes him act irrationally like god it just clicks so hard it makes so much sense and i can physically feel it through the screen #I MAY BE FERAL ABOUT THIS CHARACTER TO AN ABSURD DEGREE SHHH #basically what im getting at is i feel if i dont over explain everything about this character to other people i fear they just Wont Get It #and that they will be judgmental which idk i guess makes me defensive #anyway yeah i just enjoy getting to re experience the spiral this guy has given me and i will be thinking about it a lot tonight

#twitter repost #i guess its probably not THAT controversial i think i just really wanted to get that off my chest #xxxholic #i guess #no but like even tho mostly the quality was incredible the fact they basically were like HAHA ASSPULL and then dipped soon after is so..#i think im even a couple chapters behind and im not even rushing to catch up on them cause it burned me so bad #also cause its clamp im like. they can and will get worse sometimes with their weird shit and i cant trust that they wont #in fact holic is a funny one cause altho im less familiar with other series i know full well holic is one of their least Messy™ ones #iykwim #obviously thats not an inherent metric but like holic is usually nonsense free but i will never stop giving clamp bombastic side eye after #parts of the og ending and MOSTLY the fakeout alt universe mystery arc turning into an irrelevant fetch quest like #how do u produce media so perfect and then do that #and its also so long past tsubaholis main writing period so its like who cares??? why now???#especially cause it was like boom hiatus #anyway thats the main reason u never catch me rereading rei much at all #like i dont have an encyclopaedic knowledge of it solely cause the twist outcome pissed me off and made me so fckin nervous for the future #also im just worried now the movies done theyll be like oh we wrote 2 chapters ajd back to hiatus good riddance!! like #I've seen the digital fear struck into the eyes of x fans i wouldnt put it past them #anyway im still excited but god damn am i nervous and fucking suspicious as hell #sigh #why cant we live in a no fakeout more interesting arc ender world where also they decided to not pull a teacher student age gap 'ship'#ship in quotes cause they obviously dont fcking love each other #but clamp is SOOOOO addicted to that trope they wanted to mess with it a little like a cat with yarn even if its non romantic #like they were like we r a thirsty flower if we dont do something problematic even as a plot contrivance with no romance we will dieeeeeeee #one day i when holic is public domain (yeah im gonna live until like 500 im so cool like that) i will release hit doumeki movie #not trying to be a hater btw they do great work but damn if those ladies dont make me nervous as hell for where this whole thing could go #or if they even wanna finish it

hey @humans saw yall responded to a post making fun of you for updating the pixel alignment of a dash icon rather than fixing anything important saying "changes like this feel small but can make a big difference for some people" which is a bullshit cop out if ive ever heard one so im here to tell you directly in a way you cant wiggle out: you know what would actually make a big difference for a LOT of people? not being transphobic assholes

#that response was so deeply annoying to me like they couldve been like 'yeah its not big but it was technically an update #so we had to include it in the update report' but they tried to frame it as 'well ackshully everyone was BEGGING us to perfecltly #align this pixel so youre WELCOME' and its like. man fuck off you dont get to throw a fit that your userbase is pissed off about #repeated blatent bigotry and then try to act like youre doing us a favor moving an icon a smidge #yall know exactly what the users want you to do to improve this site and are ignoring it because you dont actually give a shit #but you cant say that bit out loud so you have to keep talking circles around it because you know the dirty queers are the main people #keeping your site the tiny bit afloat it still is but are unwilling to actually treat us well so you have to #talk in circles and pretend you give a shit and hype up minor updates like theyre godsend while fucking over trans people anyway #anyways i hope the transphobe on staff is the one who opens this tag notification #just kidding thats all of them because if youre willing to keep a transphobe on your team and allow them to make changes #that directly target lgbt people then you are all transphobes #whats that saying thats like 'if you have 3 nazis and 9 regular men at a table you have 12 nazis'? that #i dont actually expect them to respond to this post bc like. theyre obviously already aware people are mad about this and have just been #avoiding the subject especially if PIXEL ADJUSTMENT is something theyre responding to instead but #w/e #also moving an icon slightly does not make a big difference for anyone sorry not sorry i guarantee if it hadnt been #included in the updates post not a single person would have noticed or cared #they just need something to pad their uodates post out with so people hopefully eont notice the glaring lack #of 'fired the transphobe' 'unblocked queer tags' 'turned off the image filter that targets trans women a lot for some weird reason'

tfw you have quite possibly the most ambitious idea of your life and it sounds amazing and like a dream but its basically impossible and will quite literally never happen

#i think all the time about which medium i wish i could turn my kingdom project into one day #and the most likely option is a comic but like #i want it to be exciting and stuff and as a comic it wouldnt be as exciting as. a video game #except the idea is turning it into a game like fuckimg world of warcraft in the sense of a giant life size fantasy world #full of places to explore and quests to do #and a main storyline that is admittedly fairly chill. it would not be as complicated as WoW though and like #in a wild way to do any game i really wouldnt care to add combat if i could help it #youd probably end up doing puzzles or specific tasks and minigames idk sjfjsjd #but it would take years upon years of work. more people than me for sure. and probably so much money #sigh.... one can dream anyway.#my post #kingdom project #not to mention i dont know if anyone else just likes exploring game environments.. thats basically the only reason i like WoW.#i love exploring WoW and seeing the excellent worldbuilding in the environments #i love exploring every games environments! its just neat #i would love to make a game where thats the whole point aside from obviously the main story djfjfn

i’m very off and on about whether or not i wanna go through with pokemon protagonist headcanons bc i have weird ideas but never really feel like drawing them out bc i dislike drawing humans. but gen 5 thoughts are tempting me...

#i did have a ton of hcs for all the bw protags when i was like 13 but like. i shipped n and hilda at the time #so u can imagine that theyre not very good. and i feel embarassed bc i actually did put em out in the open in a fanfic once #(long deleted dont ask)#and i mean they were weird btw like i explained hilbert having no impact on the plot in the original games #by... having him be hilda's dead twin brother that followed her around as a ghost andfor some reason could still be seen by everyone #i think i was inspired by those middle school books by james patterson? i forget the name but the one where the protag #had a twin brother that died when he was a baby and he coped by imagining him as a ghost that gets him to do pranks #and i was like ''wow thats so deep im gonna do that w pokemon characters''#im rambling but like obviously id do it differently now. altho now that i think abt it i kinda dragged aspects of that into natch/wisp lmao #consistently my idea for hilbert is just that he hangs out in the battle subway and comically has no idea whats happening outside #and the harmonia sisters travel and see him there and they were like ''oh your sister defeated our king are you proud''#and hes just like ''what i have not heard from my sister in years''#(note: i do not know if he hasnt seen his sister in years)#hilda is obv the main protag is what im getting at and im still gonna have em be twinsbut idk what their current relationship would be #shes known bianca and cheren since preschool tho and theyre extremely tight knit #echoed voice
