Especially the kid whose elderly version I had an incredibly hard time designing#because it is THAT hard for me to envision him living past like 45 no joke

powder keg (full under the cut)
#wip success story!!#for a bit there i expected it to be a wip failure but i think we turned it around boys#arcane#arcane jinx#isn't it kinda cool how vi and powder don't. have last names. do vander or silco have last names#this thing has 49 layers and 1 of them is completely unrelated#approximately 8 of them are lineart#so it took 40 layers to color this.......#most of them are hidden too it's cuz i am so indecisive and afraid of messing stuff up so i just duplicate the layers and keep going#this is not a great art philosophy but it is what it is#eyestrain#my eyes got fucking STRAINED while working on this#but i love bright colors </3#the evidence of duplicating layers is in one of my shading layers called Layer5-1-2-1-1-1-1-1-2-2-1 or something like that#i went into overdrive lowkey bc i was like this Has to be finished before arc 3 (uhh very mild act 3/trailer spoilers to follow ig)#bc i Know her look changes and god knows i was NOT gonna erase those braids i painstakingly outlined (over a year ago)#it's the principle of the thing. i basically redrew half of it anyways but only because i could not stand it if i did not#i was already feeling like euhhhhhhhhhh abt the whole composition bc when i originally drew it it was kinda half based#around her league personality#so working on it now felt like it was just. Quite ooc for our current moment in the canon timeline#well. whatever. i think she looks cool enough. character notwithstanding. i just hope she is happy after saturday </3#jinx#jinx league of legends#felt like i should tag that on bc the personality thing lol.... lol#i just went through the jinx tag and reblogged a whole stream of super sentimental and super angsty jinx stuff#and now i am posting what i post best. moderately cool poses and mildly affective expressions :)#my art

Let it be a footprint that you protected the vulnerable!Let it be a footprint that you lived for Christ!Let it be a footprint that you were courageous and not a coward!Let it be a footprint that a great worker is gone!Let it be a footprint that a good heart is gone!Let it be a footprint that you were a noble accomplisher !Let it be a footprint that you knew the essence of time!Let it be a footprint that you knew when to ignore and when to respond!Let it be a footprint! Let it be a footprint! Let it be a footprint!Let it be a footprint that though you are leaving, you are living!Let it be a footprint that you shall be missed!What footprint are you leaving behind?

successful internet personality constantly feeling the gaze of the "THE RISE AND FALL OF ___" video essayists just waiting for them to slip up and crash for content for their next 4 hour video
#like... dgmw it's interesting to hear about some of the shady stuff some people did and how it affected their brand#And them being exposed so people can make informed choices about whether or not to support them is good too#but... damn it must be bleak to build your entire career on other people's failures gkfjfjd#+ it kinda creates a glass house scenario where people just assume there's nothing wrong with You#because you're the guy who calls out others so obviously you wouldn't share any of their flaws#which... sets a weird precedent i would say#like idk someone who's an abuser could start making videos calling Other people abusers and then nobody would suspect Them yk#& like... i am Not talking about sthg like hbomberguy exposing james somerton et al#his videos are about many different topics like games tv shows laughing at right-wingers & flat earthers etc#i mean people whose entire youtube library is filled with stories about successful content creators doing Bad thing and losing their career

While Khare wasn't exactly considered a 'success' by PROMETHEUS, there are times where her body does function according to plan. One of these are enhanced capabilities, particularly in regards to improved jumping thanks to the frog DNA inserted into her genetic sequence. One time when walking to Pauli's, Khare was startled by a group of young thugs calling out and running after her. When met by a dead-end, she jumped straight up and on top of the building, losing the group but ended up arriving late to work as she struggled to find a way down after getting on top of a (very) high roof.
#🌈 || musings#🌈 || headcanons#Sometimes a girl just has to jump 30 feet straight up into the air#The funny thing is that Khare cannot control this at ALL#Hence being more of a failure than a success#The times where her body does cooperate is far and few in-between but sometimes it do work#Khare managed to escape from the facility due to the ability of being able to jump high#Not quite high enough to clear the barbed wire fences surrounding the place but enough to juuust get over it#Can't control the electrical outflow#Can't breathe underwater indefinitely#But it's worked somewhat during desperate times#Just never when she wants it#Imagine trying to jump high enough to try and get over a fence but suddenly you're on the roof :(#And you're shit at climbing so you have to knock on the inhabitant's window and ask to be let down#Had to spin a wild story to get out of that one#Happy Easter to everyone (who celebrates) btw!#I hope you're all having a lovely day regardless!#I am OFF Easter overtime so can hopefully finish off some of those older memes waiting to be done#Sorry about the wait it's been a hard grind this week and especially weekend oof

one of my favorite things about apocalypse keys is last session one of my players hit a point where the rules said “one of two bad things happen to your character” and she said “... can both bad things happen?” and i said “you know what? sure!” because it’s the kind of game where even when your characters are in peril, having a bad time, in a bad place, it’s still fun to play, and sometimes when your characters lose, it’s actually more fun than if they’d done perfectly
#posts by me#ttrpg#apocalypse keys#i think a lot of mainstream ttrpgs - or at least the culture around them - fail to make losing fun#when imo the point is even if the characters are in peril the players should still have fun telling stories about those characters in peril#i think when checks are either 'you get what you want or you don't' you can fall into that trap of not making failure fun#and i think a lot of pbta games - apocalypse keys included! - do a really good job at making both failure and success engaging

having a significantly dire self-confidence go lately, so i've been using all my spare moments with attempting to finish my daughter's cross-stitch project i started 2 years ago. i really hate feeling this way.
#i am well aware that i need to change my creation mode#away from someone who creates for other people#it's just that i've got fucking 13 years of internalized failure#that i'm trying to navigate through#and i gotta admit it's been a real fucking slog of a shitshow#in my god damn brain the past few months#i'm trying very hard to give myself grace#because over a decade of failure isn't going to be something i get over so quickly#but also sometimes i want to SCREAM at people#DO YOU KNOW HOW DIFFICULT IT IS TO LET GO OF SOMETHING#THAT YOU FUCKING STAKED YOUR WHOLE LIFE ON#FOR THAT FUCKING LONG#no positives no success stories#you just fucking failed#the fact that i'm writing at all anymore#is probably a god damn miracle#but god damn sometimes i just need someone to throw me a FUCKING LIFE PRESERVER#while i'm DROWNING

Please tell me more about the homosexual subtext in Jaws. I hadn't considered it before!
there is something inherently sexual to me about 3 men being stranded in the middle of nowhere with nothing but each other to accompany themselves in between the thrill of the hunt ... how the only person with a family is the chief. Quint, Brody, hooper all being truly committed to their work, and we see Brody's struggle with this when his child's life is in danger as a result of his inaction. i really love the moments before hooper & brody's dinner where michael brody is imitating his father-- making the same pained expressions without knowing what could be so troubling to his dad. young michael learning to perform his masculinity by watching the chief internalize the consequences of mayor vaughn's refusal to protect civilians amidst shark attacks. AND ALL AT THE DINNER TABLE AS ELLEN OBSERVES.. when hooper, brody & quint are finally on the boat and we see hooper imitate quint's can-crushing in the same way michael imitates the chief. The chief's power and jurisdiction clashing with quints. Before the departure when Brody kisses ellen goodbye and she cries not just because she is fearful that he may be putting his life in danger but because of his proximity to Quint. who sings raunchy songs about women only in the context of their sexuality. and who has hooper and brody prove their competence and strength to him before he can allow them to join the hunt. quint never opening up about the uss indianapolis until moments before his death.. hooper LITERALLY baring his chest at quint & brody and explaining his failures in his relationships with women. while brody observes, wondering if the only scar he has, an appendix removal is enough to share.. the trio's shared experience by the end is as intimate and scarring as anything they've ever endured. TOGETHER AS MEN
sorry this is so disorganized and not really elaborating moreso just conjuring images and pointing at them pepe silvia style
#also the first like 10 times i watched jaws i fully thought brody was looking down his pants instead of a much more sensible appendix#removal scar LMFAO i was like ... theres no way this guy just looked down his pants implying circumcision .#brody botched circumcision truther#or. i could even project bottom surgery onto that .#just kidding ghaha ..........................#from what ive heard the book is more about the corruption of vaugh and the shark is used as a device to like literally show the failure of#our quote unquote democracy. an allegory#so maybe theyre two entirely different stories with different implications and that is why peter benchley was upset with the adaptation.#also for what the success of it has done for our perception of sharks in general

can not for the life of me understand people who pick and choose their succession favourites based on morals
#no way they're enjoying themselves watching it lmfao#very much a show you've got to turn off your moral compass to enjoy#then reapply for actual analysis and the like#also i think that watching it through a whos-the-worst-person lens is setting yourself up for failure to really think abt each characters#actions and how they make sense for that character/in the context of the story#frankly tho if you're watching it trying to assess who's the least bad you're missing the point. they're all terrible#<- sorry for the succession posting. i need somewhere to get my thoughts out#.log
