My understanding of evil, age 0-10: MY NAME IS SMOG SMOKESLY AND I RUN THE POLLUTION FACTORY, IT PRODUCES POLLUTION!!! MUWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

My understanding of evil, in my teens: You can't really boil things down to good and evil. People are complicated. Everyone is the hero of their own story, and someone who seems evil to you is actually doing their best from their own perspective. If you could walk a mile in their shoes, you'd understand. There is no such thing as evil.

My understanding of evil, in my twenties: Look, it's basically just tribalism. We are all necessarily thrust into competition with one another. There are always going to be winners and losers. Whining about evil is just being upset that you lost the game.

My understanding of evil, in my thirties: MY NAME IS SMOG SMOKESLY AND I RUN THE POLLUTION FACTORY, IT PRODUCES POLLUTION!!! MUWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

redrew an old warm up illustration from back when I was figuring out perfect illusion au blurr and shockwave. it wasn't even that long ago! but I already feel like a LOT of the art needs updating!

regardless, I originally made this as a playlist cover, so i'm happy to have a shiny new version for their tunes :D

Part #3 - ALICE IN WONDERLAND HIDDEN ESOTERIC SECRETS

There is much more than you realize when it comes to this seemingly innocent story. Occult symbolism and even a pedo backstory. Alice was based on Alice Liddell who was a real girl. There is a reason it is known as the rabbit hole.

Does This 👆 Sound Familiar? 🤔

A teeny theoretical sketch I drew on a plane of Juno being scolded(?) by one of his superiors. The phrase in mind was "knowing your place".

That place being several feet underground in a snug little box (I know it's not little hush).

Roleswap Shigaraki twins for a discord event! This was such a fun prompt and I loved thinking about what Yoichi might be like as a villain.

I think he actually still loves heroes, but views the world through a comic book lens. So every hero needs a great villain to fight! He likes to give and take powers for his own entertainment, creating epic matchups (regardless of the collateral damage).

If his action figures get broken or destroyed ... well, that's just the consequence of playing rough.

But Zen is special. He's the prized collectible that can never be taken out of its box.

Ninjago but it's Wu getting grayer hair because Lloyd is a supernatural 9y prat (like father like son <3)

tbh sebaciel to me is like a child abuse survivor power fantasy and I completely understand why some people are drawn to the dynamic of an otherwise physically frail but intelligent and ruthless boy and the demon he calls his weapon and shield. Someone who will not betray him, hurt him, lie to him out of a contract that would not be broken, as far as we know.

I too wished for fairies to come destroy those who've hurt me when I was younger than Ciel and the painful parts of me have never resonated more with a protagonist as I have now

in a town of lies who's going to tell you you're real?

what’s wrong with aoc? Could you explain it to me please?

i dont fw just about everyone in power and politics in the west esp since the past 2 years have exposed and displayed everyones true colours, some vibrant others more subtle, which imo therein lies the real horror; they all parade in different shades of the same deeply disturbed and bigoted mindset. a few links:

outwardly she may seem better than most of her peers in congress (a low bar indeed) but the dems in general have shown themselves no less disgusting and hypocritical than their opposition, the stark difference lies in how they present and advertise themselves.

no real or tangible effort has been made by literally anyone at any point for a ceasefire of any degree, harris and biden greenlit and continued to staunchly sponsor and justify the ongoing genocide and its accompanying war crimes. they can hide behind claims of diversity and acceptance all they want theyre just as guilty in regards to deportations, all of this and more is made even more heinous by the hypocrisy on full display.

to me nothing is more insulting nor an instant depletor of any respect i may hold for anyone than dishonesty. politics is dirty work and rarely does anyone get anywhere by being a saint, of that much im aware but all i ask is consistency. do not smile at me or preach of your virtue as you twist the knife. fuck that

ur ask i assume comes after the post i reblogged this morning, i dont believe in anyone (in political power esp) should be idolised or placed on a pedestal, were all humans and flawed, but its so happens that some peoples fuck ups lie on a much bigger and devastating scale that often translates into bombing civilians half the globe away and no one cares because folks accept that we dont matter.

and in that regard there are significantly better figures to be looking up to who arent morally bankrupt or worse; morally bankrupt and cosplaying as anything but. thems my two cents on the matter ig.

A CIA whistleblower has confirmed the existence of directed energy weapons, but a Harvard scientist took it a step further, revealing a more sinister agenda.

According to the scientist, these directed energy weapons will work in conjunction with Project Blue Beam and can be used to create atmospheric ionization, manipulating radar to make people believe alien craft are in the sky.

He compared the technology to laser pointers, saying it could even simulate the illusion of an entire army invading Europe—an elaborate hoax.

Despite his revelations, the scientist refused to disclose who is behind these operations. 🤔
