if star wars was pitched for the first time in today's entertainment industry it would be turned down. and so would any other thing that's currently a "big IP". where do idiot executives think the IPs come from to begin with???
#entertainment industry#animation industry#hollywood news#not art#this isn't common knowledge to most people so it's my mission to let people know just how bad it is out there#if its original its not getting picked up. if it does get picked up somehow it'll be cancelled by the second season.#unless its a shitty celebrity nepo project or the gazillionth generic Edgy Adult Animated Comedy with the fugliest art style you've ever se#n. how do we Great Chicago Fire all of hollywood. anyone got a cow and a lantern? we can do it.#maybe TWO cows and TWO lanterns#god the industry makes me sad. especially the animation industry its basically fucking dead#it literally IS dead actually. like. we lost cartoon network guys its over. indie is the future and the only future i guess#do you know how many animation folks are out of a job rn??? nobodys fucking hiring there aren't any jobs to begin with#nothing good will be coming out soon. i fully expect the animators to strike this year#capitalism kills art the CEOs are minmaxing profits to the extreme etc etc burn it all

Sometimes I randomly wonder what some actors think when they find fanfiction featuring their character. Not in the ‘oh nawr it’s PORWN!!?!’ Kind of way, but more in the: ‘huh, so that’s what people got from my acting?’ Or ‘Oh, that’s a different place that story line could have gone.’ Or ‘wait why didn’t we explore this in the show?’ Or ‘He Wouldn’t Fucking Say That.’
#shout out to you#teen wolf#pretty damn sure certain actors were reading the script and thinking the last one#because y’all in the writers room did not have your shit together#anyway#fandom#fanfic#fanfiction#I just wonder sometimes like#pick a random actor#do they know that we got this naunce from their work?#do they know that they did such a great job that people will write and rewrite them in situations#do they know what people are using for lube on their character’s ass#I don’t know#not to disaparage writers in the room of course#I think it’s cool that most of us out here love what they do and want to build more in their world#except for you teen wolf#some concepts good#the rest#What the fuck bro

I want so badly to support rescues, but why do they all have to be so #ad*ptd*ntsh*p??? Like please let me fucking support you without having to hear that you don't think my purebred dog should exist and that all purebred animals are bad and breeders are all evil!!!! We can fucking coexist! It doesn't have to be like this!
#barkin up some trees#like sorry that i want predictability in the animals i own#i literally worked in rescue#i have personally rescued several dogs and cats#i drove a dog two hours one way on my birthday to save his life because otherwise he was going to be pts#i spent hours out in a blizzard trying to catch a dog someone dumped so he wouldn't die#and now he is in a great home where he is loved#most of my own pets are rescues!!!#most of my own pets i literally picked up off the streets!#but i support ethical breeding#i support breeding physically and mentally sound animals for either jobs or as pets#i have a purebred dog and i am planning for another in the future#i would love to get a purebred cat one day too#both things can be good!!!!!!!

MiqoMarch Day 08 - Fav. (Side) Job
When she's not running around as Ninja or Summoner , Arsay's next choice is the lance. Being bestowed a source of draconic power by Midgardsormr moments before his slumber, and knowing how to channel the powers of Bahamut with dreadwyrm trance, Arsay's power as a Dragoon rivals that of even the former Azure Dragoon. With that said, she'd much rather use her polearm to hunt monsters.
#miqomarch#miqomarch2024#ffxiv#miqo'te#arsay kain pose pog??#an attempt was made#I didn't want to repeat myself two years in a row lol#do love playing drg though its so fun#praying it doesnt become too different in dawntrail#in my canon Arsay never does the lancer or dragoon lv 30-60 job quests#She gets Estinien to teach her some basic moves while on the road trip to drivania#one cause she thought it looked fun two because its hard to back stab a dragon without going full shadow of the colossus on them#Shes pretty good with the lance too so she does use it on that first nidhogg fight#then she continues hvw as ninja/smn#she doesnt have any of the dragoon part of the dragoon kit until she goes through the great gooble library with y'mhitra#where they learn about dreadwyrm trance and arsay discovers her surprisingly strong connection to bahamut#y'hmitra: wow thats weird didnt you say you werent around during the calamity how did you connect to him so easily#arsay: so there's this massive hole in the ground in eastern la noscea-#When its time to end the dragonsong war for real this time in the patches she picks up the lance again and enters trance mode#She does get a job stone finally after that#its a gift from aymeric#a symbolic 'you were part of the troops' type thing#oh and later during stormblood arsay does go through Those job quests#because of course shes helping a little dragon friend#and during the omega raid series when Middy saves her life just before he goes to sleep again he gifts arsay a scale to carry with her#a bit of dragon aether to tap into when she needs it !#anyways thats arsay dragoon lore thanks for coming to my tedtalk#WOL posting#Arsay Nun

I saw Wicked today with my roommates. I have Thoughts
#stupid flighty bullshit#first.#wicked spoilers#beyond this point so if you dont want to be spoiled stop reading#first of all i loved it#great movie. cynthia and ariana knocked it out of the park#i liked ethan slater's boq and michelle yeoh's madame morrible#im sorry ariana for doubting you#she did a very good job acting#jonathan bailey was fine. i still dont like him but he did fine#tbh i think i just dont like fiyero. like hes fine but the romance plot is so boring aside from the conflict that it creates between#glinda and elphaba#also make them gay. cowards#i saw that fucking. flower#im picking up the crumbs and i want more#most of the additions were kind of unnecessary tbh like. they had an extended scene with the wizard#but it made me cringe and jeff goldblum cant sing#i dont think he was a good choice for this part#also there was an additional number in one short day#kind of explaining the grimmier thing?#i dont remember how they do it in the show but I feel like that was fine?#i think they just added that part to have kristen chenoweth and idina menzel cameo#but i feel like the extra time could have been used in other places#to fill out the relationshio development more#i still dont find fiyero and elphaba convincing as a couple#i still think that elphaba and glinda jump from being enemies to besties way too quickly#like it works but wouldnt it be nice to give it more focus?#i did love the choreography during the songs#especially no one mourns the wicked and dancing through life

"And after that... I will proceed to break your knees...."
Is this a prelude to battle? Or a very personal session of ASMR?
Listening to Simon's voice speaking into my ears will surely kill me, so I think this will work on Dracula too. Slowly. Yet ever so effectively.
Yes this was what all those specific head tilt shots in the past were for :)
#and I still think I could've perfected it some more#but y'know what they (me) say(s): oh well :)#and I couldn't pick one proper shot so you get two of them#I'm gonna say it again simon's va did such a great job he sounds Very Good#every so often I think about going back to listen to the clips from judgement but I think I will most certainly die#but I've got work tomorrow so I can't really be doing that now#doodle-daas#akumajou dracula#dracula vlad tepes#simon belmont#anti netflixvania

Chris Harms at Gefragt – Gejagt | The Chase A Tragedy in 3 Acts
#chris harms#lord of the lost#lotl#queue are not the bug queue are the patch#sorry for the gif spam everyone but this was so hard to choose from. way too many good moments.#like when he knew the answer to the first question and said it out loud before the chaser had even picked her answer#or like twenty of his extremely displeased facial expressions. like at all the times the host alexander bommes called him 'Quiz Harms'.#biggest respect to bommes tho. have never seen someone be so immune to chris's charm. or maybe that cold shoulder was just him flirting bac#this is all light-hearted of course. chris did a great job. but he was also too fun to watch#some of these are actual quotes btw ... i let you guess which ones ;)#if anyone wants to see the whole show: the link is in the description. chris is there between 52:12 and 1:21:12#(the moment the tumblr tags work properly for once will be the happiest day of my life)

Also I am VINDICATED that literally all bosses and p.e.s at my new job has said to me "wow you're good at this. This is the fastest anyone has picked this up. You'll advance fast if you actually stay here" Because I can spot design flaws that take like idk engineering sense? I just know what kinds of things are important in design.
So vindicated that I'm a good engineer. Vindicated that I held that company together. They can keep it going (because I set them up to be able to do that) but there is nothing to hold them together. I told the principals that what they'll lose with me is someone to make sure all the parts of the business work together and someone who can make holistic solutions, and that's what they're seeing.
The implication was always that I wasnt a talented engineer. That's what they thought from literally week two (which I know from sources). I wonder what about me made them think in two weeks I was bad at engineering 🤔 I wonder what about me made them think that when I was still learning things like who our customers were and being introduced to people 🤔 literally before I ever took on an engineering project 🤔 not sure! A mystery!
As I was saying in the 'think of things no one has thought of' business class: I have come up with industry standard systems. Is it small? Yes. But it was 100% my design with no co-designers.
#totes bro#is this me not being humble? maybe#but I legitimately think im good at engineering. like i really think im not bad at it#now that everyone around me keeps telling me im good at engineering at the new job (lol)#working in an over 50% female (over 50% nonwhite too) office is great because people dont automatically assume im an idiot#the misogyny in engineering is unbearable#apparently all of the contractors my coworkers work with commit misogyny crimes regularly so its not my imagination#also our whole kind of thing is men make us do their work for them for free because we check for the publics interest#and they dont even try to work inline with what is best. they just try to get away with shit.#EXCEPT for the female PEs! they try to do a good job! so we dont have to pick up their slack#anyway women are simply better engineers. having everyone assume youre bad at engineering makes you better imo#will anyone ever tell you youre better? no.#OH. ALSO. at my last job if the fraud engineer sales guy presented my solutions and products as his own he would get praise from customers#so i eventually stopped saying things were my designs because at least i could get credit that they were good when he presented them#this isnt engineering ethics this is me bitching about misogyny#also with the last post all fields are subject to the military industrial complex. let mech e (and aerospace but you should have known) is#a specific hell because its such a conservative engineering still

context for what "maybe" means in the tags
#personal#when I say maybe. I mean the strongest maybe in the world#I am probably thinking about this more than I need to but I am so so scared#context incoming#so I work at a pizza place. and most nights it's just me and my boss so I answer a lot a lot of phone calls#and listen I think I have very good customer service and a good phone voice. I have very clear pronunciation and am good at talking#anyways I took an order for someone who's ordered maybe once or twice and she said her husband was coming to pick it up. she was super nice#and she had a weird request that I helped her with and she seemed thankful for that. anyways#her husband comes to pick it up and I ring him up at the front counter and he asks if I was the one on the phone. I say yes that was me#and for even further context I often get people who come in and ask oh was that you on the phone you were so nice you were so kind etc#but this guy goes listen. my wife and I own a dental practice. and if you're ever looking for a job you would be a great candidate#and I was like OMG thank you that's so kind I appreciate that and he goes no no I'm serious. I interview a lot of people. look us up#then he tipped me $5. then as he took his pizza he told me once again to look them up.#is that a legitimate job offer? or is that just a hypotheticical. I don't want to call and seem like an idiot#but also I've been looking for a way out of food service lately and this would be a great one. a Monday through Friday 9:00 to 5:00 job#I just don't want to call and seem dumb or desperate I don't know but also if I don't call I will never know and I'll think about it forever

Battle Theme: She Moves Like a Knife - Perturbator
Boss Battle Theme: Sleepless Fever - Sea Oleena
Emotion Theme: Torn in Two Directions - Waterstrider
Bonus Singing Voice: Dh’èirich mi moch madainn cheòthar (I arose early on a misty morning) - Julie Fowlis
Bonus Lyric Theme: Bleed for Me - Digital Daggers
You won't taste the poison Hidden in my kiss You won't face the darkness So I'll just walk right in You can't outrun the wicked I'll keep you standing still You refuse to be the hunted But I'm out for the kill So I creep To watch you bleed for me So I creep To watch you bleed for me Bleed for me Won't you bleed for me On your knees for me Won't you bleed for me Bleed for me Won't you bleed for me On your knees for me Won't you bleed for me
Tagged by: (I actually forgot who I stole this from whoops. Dx;;;;) Tagging: @corvidamned, @frostise, @cxpperhead, @bluefeathrs, @sanguine-salvation, @question-marked, @cxpedcrusxder, @ghosts-of-gotham (For Nora!), @mute-call, @the-rorschach-mask, @king-crane, @behindslaughter, @ofwealthandtaste, @twcfaces, @ofdeomnes
#Kill City Killer ( Riverisms )#Headcanon#(Be careful about the Perturbator song. The one I picked ISN'T one but their other album covers can be kinda Nsfw. Song's a banger tho!)#(Boss Theme is a bit slower. I imagined it like one of those story-driven fights that happen during an emotionally-intense moment.)#(Such as Riv deciding to go large-scale villain-mode and mass-make her poison to use on Gotham or deciding to join back up with her fam.)#(Emotion Theme is a bit of her feeling torn between assassin-ing and stopping it; and part coming to terms with what happened to her. 80)#(Singing voice was REALLY hard cuz I HC Riv not being a great singer but a good hummer. She deffo can't hit the high notes in this. Dx;;;)#(This is probs the closest I'll ever get plus it's how I HC Riv sounding when she speaks Scottish Gaelic. Julie's a great singer tho. 8'D)#(Bleed for Me is a total 'job' song and Psyche... I could go forever on this song it's her theme forever. <3 But this is long enough lol!)

haven’t had such a nice day in so long
#visited my childhood friend of 20 years in the city she had moved to#she picked me up from the train#then treated me to a delicious lunch and cake#we watched the start of the new gntm season#then she made my nails and omg I’m in LOVE#I’ve never seen her be this focused on something before agdhgj she did such a good job#we also had wine while doing that and listened to fun music#after we went to a cute immersive light show exhibition thingy#and then she borrowed me some of her clothes bc she had convinced me to go out#and my god was she cute and supportive and sweet about it#and I really really needed all that#she’s that friend that always gets hit on when we’re out if you remember That story of me being miserable#WELL the queue in front of the club was too damn long so we just went home again so that was great for me ahdjgj#all in all such a lovely day I adore her lots she made me feel so loved today

Ray's After Ending is so funny because for a good chunk of it, most of the RFA members are knocked out by V's sleeping gas (Saeran is immune, Saeyoung isn't present bc he was kidnapped by his agency under his father's orders and MC wakes up in like an hour) but the game has a call feature where you can call the characters and it would be a waste if you couldn't use it bc the characters were unavailable so instead they have other people pick up the call (Jumin's driver picks up Jumin's phone, Jumin's father picks up Zen's phone, Yoosung's friends and mom pick up Yoosung's phone and Jaehee's coworkers pick up Jaehee's phone) and we do get to learn about the characters from outsider's point of view but it's so funny to me that these people are visiting their loved ones and suddenly the phone rings and they decide to just. answer it. and start talking to this stranger they've never met
#prince's talk tag#maybe its not actually weird people just pick up their loved one's phone call for them but i personally wouldn't#i cant stop thinking about how its Jumin's father that uses Zen's phone like Chief Han what were you doing in Zen's room??#i know they needed to assign somw character to Zen and he's not on speaking terms with his family#but I would of thought Chief Han would go to Jumin and the driver could go to Zen#does this mean something? am i thinking too hard about this?#also rip yoosung his friends and mom lowkey kinda dragging him in their call with you#and with the friends since one of them is a girl one of the options is like 'A girl?!?! are you dating??' and shes like 'no lolol'#'he's nice but i dont see him like that'#the main thing that made me make this post was thinking about Yoosung's mom saying how Jumin calls her sometimes and sends her holiday gift#like!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! idk man that just plays on a loop in my head#i know thats like a very professional thing to do. Jumin was raised to please people in a business capacity#and the he cares about the RFA so yea it makes sense. im sure he has gifts sent out to companies his works with#and I'm sure if the other members had a good relationship with their parents hed do the same with them#but in the RFA Yoosung and I guess V are the only ones with parents they talk to#idk if he sends a gift to V's father tho bc we never talk to him#but man. while i know hed do it with the other members if he could just the fact he does it with Yoosung is sweet#and it makes the part in Seven's route where he calls Yoosung's mom about her son's dilemma make sense to me bc they do talk once in a whil#so its not too out of the blue when he does it i guess#but man can we talk about how awesome Jaehee is? bc her coworker that picks up her phone spends every call gushing about her#like we knew she's great at her job but man hearing her coworker talk about her fills me with such love and admiration#and she's apparently really loved by the other assistants too like they all gush about her#jaehee is the best character in the game im not joking around#they wanna get close to her but bc she's their boss it's hard T_T#and the one that picks up the phone wishes Jaehee knows she was the one that stood with her overnight when she wakes#Yuni (the assistant you're talking to) says she would of quit the job had it not been for her#LIKE!!!!!!!! AAAAAAAAA!!!!#it was a nice way to use the call feature during the first two days of the characters not being awake to answer#and even though this is supposed to be the last thing you play before completing the whole game#you still learn something new about the characters you've known since day 1

The heart wants toxic yuri and drunk calls and drunken confessions but the mind tells me to be a responsible adult living in the real world with a 9-5 😐
#why is this world so boring why can't i be an immortal witch who dies every night in the battlefield only to be cleaned up and resurrected#in secrecy from my gf who hates fighting but only to be found out to her horror and be cleaned and picked up by my gf every night#why can't healing magic exist in the form of girls kissing why can't i be puking flowers if im puking anyway#like healing and doing better is great but god is it boring lmao#i kinda miss how dramatic my first unofficial heartbreak was.. like that was bad for my health but very interesting for the plot#now instead i journal and play an instrument and don't talk to ppl abt how i feel and work a stable job and hang out with my friends#WHICH ARE NORMAL PEOPLE ACTIVITIES and i think it's good to be being a normal person rn but i haven't had a like. big dramatic cry yet.#i cried before the break up but i haven't really had a big sob or anything after it and part of me misses feeling the range of emotions#like i was angstier when i was 15 this experience has been so calm and muted it even surprises me i feel like i should feel more hurt abt it#alas i missed my best chance to like actually act heartbroken. like if i do anything now it's kinda gonna be more for the experience and bit#god it's the theatre kid in me lmao i just. i want to experience what it's like crying and calling drunk walking home in your friend's arms#but ig if ur w ur friends they wouldn't let u call ur ex? so ig walking home alone at night drunk and crying!#but that feels unsafe. so maybe just. drunk alone at home? but that also feels like a liability#what do u even say on the call? im drunk can u pick me up pls? 💀💀💀 i don't think that's gonna work.#ok god i need to stop thinking abt this lmao im gonna be tempted to do it for fun but aaa self control self control#think instead abt the independent project u have. and ur diagnostic score. and the fact that u already broke ur favorite shirt.#where do ppl get interesting lives. the older i get the more my life has settled down into some stable npc life which i do like. but still.#can't help but realize i live in a very different world than most ppl. my coworker constantly asks me how old i really am.
