#give it to them

LRB I think the thing I specifically get Got by in media is characters making a conscious choice to "be" human and participate in human society, though with a very specific flavor. It can't just be out of obligation, to keep up appearances, or because it entertains them. It has to be because they want what humans have. Their history, their perspectives, their community, their ways of engaging with the world. I like plots that capture the fear of getting cut off from those things, and that really dig into the tangible and physical difficulties of achieving and holding onto that qualified humanity (and the immense gift it is to do the work it takes to open the gates a little wider for anyone who wants to access it).
#it's a broad metaphor that captures a lot of things meaningful to me at different times i think#but is frequently a queerness thing and/or a mental illness thing in my mind#I have a lot of Being Trans feelings in particular about certain kinds of community and social recognition being withheld#on the basis of your ability to perform a certain way of being to Other People At Large#i remember the moment I'd 'made it' performance-wise and got that recognition after Years Of It Being Withheld#(and after putting out substantial effort [up to and including medical intervention] to make that happen)#and i remember the moment I realized other people were now looking for that same recognition from me#and that i could just#give it to them#narrow example for the broad narrative metaphor but you get the idea#i think about this a lot#complaining

sick to death of people smoothing and prettifying characters….. put their wrinkles back on….. where are their eye bags…………… where’s the body fat…………… where’d their scars go………………….
#I don’t know who this even is anymore#hey. even if they don’t have any of these???#give it to them#slap some body hair on for good measure#.doc#smoothing characters is only okay and funny when *I* make shit like Smooth Hannibal#otherwise no.

I think we're too harsh on medieval painters because this is legitimately what some poodle mixes look like

hey! there's zero esims left for the connecting gaza campaign as of today. i remember you promoting them earlier. could you give them a much needed boost?
oh dang! unfamiliar with that particular campaign, as I always donate via crips for e-sims because it's super easy to do, but regardless let's go people!
#signal boost#esims for gaza#crips for esims#monday is 'whatever i got that i can give' day anyway so good timing#free palestine#only thing to watch out is how much of a tip you're giving on this site bc it defaults to. super high? which. I get but c'mon#I'm here to give the money to THEM not the host site ok

every prehistoric human reconstruction has me thinking “I want to smoke weed with this bitch”

she looks like she would have been an awesome neighbor, like she would have loved menthols and called me baby
#I’m glad they started giving anthropological reconstructions happy expressions#it makes them so much more human#the blank stare they used to do made it hard to fathom their lives

i come from the universe where everything is the same except disney heroines get like an ounce of their fathers' obviously dominant genes and their clothes are like 80% more historically accurate. it's beautiful here.

#dungeon meshi#izutsumi#marcille donato#chilchuk tims#I still stand by my tags on the Izutsumi character study piece I did in January - but I will repeat myself on a few lines here:#I *really* love this character. I love that all of the dungeon meshi crew are complicated and have difficult to love components.#But Izutsumi is a particular kind of hard to love. I foresee a lot of people being turned off by her abrasiveness and lack of teamwork.#She is very self-centered and openly goes against what the party agrees on.#She's a picky eater in a story that is 50% about eating good and healthy food!#It is in part about her growth but admittedly even *then* she remains rather true to her self-centeredness.#Even though she isn't as nice or funny or compassionate as the others...Izutsumi is still someone worth loving.#Even the more difficult people are someone worth loving.#And those people in turn are people who have something and someone they love.#She may be a girlcat but she is the most human of them all.#I hope that if you are an anime only watcher and are feeling put off by her at the moment; you'll give her a chance.#By the way: *yes* I worked very hard to draw that skateboard pose. It was worth it.#EDIT: HAPPY 500th POST OF POORLY-DRAW-MDZS!!! What a comic to commemorate the milestone with!

(look at what i have to offer) — this is the spider's nest.
#wild life smp#grian#<- is that really... his tag...?#grian fanart#life series smp#wanted to also make him wear skizz's tie specifically bec i hc he cant tie it properly himself so its always lopsided#perhaps later on he then wraps it around his fist#anyway this was A LOT . simpler in my head. never again will i draw rails#eydidraws#my art#trafficblr#mcyt#self indulgent drawing for me . maybe ill post the original sillier sketches later :'D#also kinda failed but i wanted to give the illusion of 8 legs so shadow-arm-sleeve-coat (left) / shadow-arm-shadow-coat (right)#* extra edit for clarification: yes my wl! grian is wearing mumbo's jacket (all the rips) and skizz's tie (unharmed since he fell) :D#maybe when they resurrect next time ill draw them without it lmao
