Me and Kei my lovessss

I sometimes forget that we know completely nothing about Kei and Me. I’ve made up so much of what I think they’re like that when I try to look for any proof that my headcannons are right, I remember ‘oh shit, yeah ! We know fuck all !!’. Me and Kei are nothing outside of their curse, I doubt that the designers even had a concept of what their faces would look like when they were being designed. Because they aren’t mean to have faces, in the sense that the reason that they exist as characters is to be cursed. Obviously they have faces in the DS2001 universe and the writers want that to matter to us but as players observing fictional characters, the curse just feels so empty. Did they want fans to theorise? Are the connections to Capoeira intentional? I truly don’t know… People never really draw Me and Kei and it’s either because their masks and horns are hard to draw or they just don’t care about them. And I 100% believe it’s the latter. In fact I know it is. I know it’s partially my fault because I have a really hard time actually posting my drawings but trust me when I say that I’ve completely lost count how many times I’ve drawn them despite archiving all my Cusu-Cusu drawings in a designated folder. My point is; if someone doesn’t like certain characters as much as I do, great! I honestly think that Cindy’s description is a bit boring, but I just can’t accept that when it comes to Me and Kei. I know the writers didn’t give us much but I just need people to actually think about these too for a second. They don’t deserve to only be cursed. The whole reason we see Cusu-Cusu is to help Me and Kei get rid of the curse. I mean, none of their endings are good. The majority of the characters in DS2001 just want to use the Groovetron for harmlessly selfish reasons. Some save the world but some just want to eat some fucking garlic steak. This team just aren’t allowed any peace it seems. BUT THEY DESERVE IT!!!!!!! But as I reach the end, I remember that actually don’t want an uproar of Me and Kei fanart because I still like being the only Cusu-Cusu fan…. Anyway, I love you Me and Kei !!!!!!!!

Cusu-Cusu as Discos Estrus

I've thought about this concept for a long time now- a team dressing up as a different team. But specifically team A as team B, team B as team C and team C as team A. Not just a one to one switch. But Cusu-Cusu as Discos Estrus is all I can think of, which is the least surprising thing ever. Like this is the most ewicomkicks thing, I can't believe I hadn't drawn this sooner.

Also their shoes are exactly how I imagine what their shoes look like, Dragon's might be a bit shorter but Micro's are totally knee-high you cannot tell me otherwise.

Also, also.... Me and Kei....... that's it.

Looking for Writing Help?

Okay, important news. I accidentally witnessed a major crime (that I committed but that's beside the point) and I'm going to have to be put into the Witness Protection Program for the entirety of tomorrow.

Luckily I called my own friend - my mentor, really - to step in for me. I don't think I've ever said this, but everything I am as an artist and human being I owe to my teacher, Renown Novelist Bover J Peebis.

Bover runs the Good Writer Department of CUSU (College University State University), where he's published such classic works of literature as The Fall of Falling, Window Pain, and Little Beeper Goes to the Zoo. He knows virtually everything about writing successfully as he's told me before he is the only person to ever publish a book. I'm so lucky to give him a platform to finally share the wisdom that I gained through years of friendship (through an unpaid internship, as well as the 20k a year I spend on his courses).

If you have anything you want to know about writing, feel free to send an ask tonight or tomorrow (11/18) and Bover will dispense some of the best wisdom imaginable. I'm sure you'll feel yourself improve in the way that only a cis, straight, vaguely-white man can provide when he's feeling generous.

Below is my favorite picture of Bover J Peebis, taken with some other literary greats.

Right Wing Online Feminism: TERF(Trans Exclusionary Radical Feminism)

Using some of the listed terms in 'HOW TO SPOT TERF IDEOLOGY' by The CUSU Women’s Campaign I will try to find real-life online examples of their listed TERF dog whistles.

These are only a few of the most common terms associated with Trans ideology that I gained from a singular source but I believe I found a sufficient amount of evidence to validate the claims made by said source.

Observed Nomancluture of Online TERF:

“Gender critical”, discussed above; terfs also often dub themselves “biological women” or “adult human females”, and frequently highlight biological and anatomical signifiers such as “XX” (denoting chromosomes) and parts of reproductive anatomy.

@r/GenderCritical is a Reddit community turned Twitter blog after being banned due to their transphobic controversy. They are backed by @/WomenAreOvarit which is blatantly anti-trans(Example: Their Header image is from a protest against Transwomen in Female designated areas(I could not reverse-image search to find its exact origin)

“RadFem”; terf ideology calls itself “radical feminism” after its origins in parts of the feminist ‘second wave’ and its opposition to what it sees as “liberal feminist” positions of trans inclusion, although in reality there’s nothing “radical” about biological essentialism.

On Twitter, the main accounts that had the term 'radfem' in their account name had several posts relating to anti-trans ideology and/or reposts of other accounts that spoke about TERF ideology topics(e.g 'the trans-women in female bathroom ' debate)

On Tumblr, I had to focus on posts tagged with the term 'radfem', and immediately I was shown either content related to 'transwoman' or about the TERF ideology.

Omg I remember dance summit I'm so glad you've shared these images !!! I really miss this kind of aesthetic and expression in games. My favorites were always the flower dancers, schoolmates, and I love galaxy 4's afrofuturism. (Oh yeah, and the cusu cusu also rubbed me the wrong way, seeing how they are supposed to be African tribal priestesses?)

yess i used to watch the playthroughs on youtube all the time because the game was never released in Europe :/ i rlly want to play it one day. and i loveeee games with that aesthetic so much and its very interesting that most games that look like that are rhythm/dance games.

honestly flower dancers, schoolmates, galaxy 4 and far east movement were my faves too. dance summit and bust a groove really went all out with the character designs they're one of my biggest inspirations

and yea i never liked cusu-cusu smth about that group felt disrespectful idk how to explain it

HAPPY BIRTHDAY SAHARAAAA

I still think that this drawing needs to have little bit more stuff going on but ahrgh I dont care. Its her birthday whoop whoop.

I tried to emulate the style of the jungle rock remix because I ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT. I just love bright, neon flowers and leaves paired with a harsh black background so I tried to do something like that.

I promise that I won't miss Cindy's birthday this year

[askacambridgestudent]

Worth noting for student from low income background - cusu are running a campaign called "class act" to support people from "less traditional backgrounds" if they do feel out of place when they're at Cambridge. Maybe worth looking into?

Thanks for mentioning this! It looks like a really good initiative.
