2024 reads / storygraph
Outdrawn
f/f contemporary romance
two cartoonist who’ve been rivals since uni, and now have competing webcomics online, have to work together on the relaunch of a cult classic at the comic press they both work at
they both struggle with art-related physical and mental health issues, and complicated families
#outdrawn#aroaessidhe 2024 reads#sapphic books#I thought this was decent! I liked the concept (even if I got distracted by some art related things…)#and the dynamic between the characters was good. I enjoyed their relationship development broadly speaking#and the emphasis on communication; though it was a quick flip into being together all of a sudden.#The sketchbook doodle flirting was cute. Some interesting exploration of their complicated family situations too.#There’s a lot of exploration of burnout and carpal tunnel and the dangers of artists overworking which I think are important conversations#and are done with some nuance. But it’s pretty much all discussed in the context of the personal pressure they put on themselves#rather than the industry corporate greed and artificial competition created by the comic platform - which are significant in this story!#It felt odd that that connection wasn’t really ever made?#I know that this is a romance and nitpicking the background plot is beside the point and also that I am not a big romance reader#but the premise that the comic hosting site archives everything; wipes the leaderboard; and out of nowhere has a comic competition for#new weekly chapters…I’m sorry but the art world would riot. Even if people enter because they’re desperate for the cash they’d be pissed#People live off the income from their webcomics! if they were erased (temporarily) with no notice…..there would be crimes committed istg#I simply don’t believe that it would be doable to create a new weekly webcomic with no notice while you also have a full-time comic job#(especially as the only stylistic choices mentioned are full-colour) - not to mention what happened to their 8-years-running webcomics#that were archived? they don’t think about them at all after the beginning? surely they’d care about that?#And then with their new comics they make for this competition (after work I guess) we get vague snippets about them but barely anything#- if they’re consuming that much of your time I would expect to feel like they’re thinking about them all the time#rather than the vaguest discussion about genre and cast numbers only.#I guess I just think the whole comic site stunt felt unnecessary for the plot anyway -#it would have worked exactly the same if they were just competing on the normal leaderboard with their normal comics???#anyway - I’m not judging TOO hard about all that because again I know it’s not the point and maybe the industry is like that in some place#Unfortunately it was distracting enough to affect my feelings on the book tho lol.#Lastly: the audiobook………oof. The narrators talk at different speeds; for one.#And Sage’s VA does this deeply weird raspy-anime-teen-boy voice for Noah which is such an odd choice#and doesn’t match her character at all.#unforch my library only had the audiobook (what I usually prefer) so I just had to sort of….translate the narration into a normal voice lol#anyway the romance is good tho

RH: Prometheus Clark head/face rough design and a doodle of him with Jason (disclaimer: not ship art). Uncle C always there to lend comfort and to help your older brother try to gently drag you out of lethal anti-herodom, what a guy
#red hood prometheus#clark kent#jason todd#superman#red hood#I posted more face/head designs for RH:P last night but ended up removing them ‘cause I wasn’t happy with them <:)#maybe I’ll try to spruce them up later and add a couple of other characters…#(on second thought maybe it's just the oncoming depression spiral talking but no longer posting about my dumb AU ideas is also an option?)#(at least not until/unless I actually have something more concrete to show for them? my design posts don't generally catch much interest)#(though that may simply be due to me not being good enough yet. at my age I guess closer to not good enough ever?)#(my life revolves almost entirely around art in what time I get to make it but have basically nothing to show for it.)#(no career no skills no prospects no future. in the end I will amount to nothing at all.)

Was soooooo happy with this phase 1 which is what made it so much funnier that I was immediately clapped by his phase 2 😂
#romina is still my fave boss but messmer is a solid second#almost every other boss I would describe as “would’ve been good if their damage wasn’t so overtuned”#my stance if that if I’m consistently losing to a boss with 10/14 flasks left the damage is overtuned#vs me losing to sword saint isshin with no gourds or pellets left bc he was tough enough to whittle me down#fromsoft bros will say get good but think high numbers is big difficulty#an actually difficult boss doesn’t need big damage output if the mechanics are the challenge#I don’t actually mind how relentless the bosses are in ER but I mind how HARD they hit on top of that#dodging a 12 hit uninterruptible combo where each move does like 1/10th of your health? that’s fine.#if I properly time 3 of those dodges I can still make it and it’s honestly my bad if I’m getting killed by that#dodging a 12 hit uninterruptible combo where each hit takes out 1/2 of ur health bar & has a 50% chance for an additional retaliation combo?#I *can* do it but Jesus Christ what a waste of my time lmao#how am I supposed to learn a boss when I can’t get into a flow state bc a single mistake can end a run smh#I just beat gaius and I didn’t even feel accomplished I was just like ugh finally#I feel like 95% of his moves are fine once you work out the delays and positioning#but I kept getting clipped by his charge attack like I would dodge out of the way but once the i frames were finished I’d still get hit#bc I guess I wasn’t dodging a perfect 90 degrees to him and the hitbox for that attack is long as hell#which would be whatever if that move didn’t take out like 2/3 of my health and come out nigh instantly#I don’t even really know the tell for the move bc I beat him before I learned it bc I lucked out on a run where he didn’t charge me a lot#luckily the game is absolute DELIGHT to look at and explore that I can forgive the absolute bullshittery of the bosses#like I just got to the summit of dragon peak and I’m blown away by the design of that mountain#if we’re talking verisimilitude in games how about that whole shebang#no obvious well worn path up to the top of the mountain bc it’s just for dragons who’s gonna be walking up there?#having the player follow a trail of increasingly dense dragon corpses is SUCH a great tone setter#which means I’m probably going to hate bayle but whatever I’m already invested let’s gooooo#tsuchi plays games

you do not want to do that OP I promise
#because let me lay out what’s gonna happen. what happened to all of us.#you’re gonna watch season 1. it’s gonna be good!#not perfect. but enjoyable. you like it. you say#oh boy! more!#and then you watch season two. and you’ll say. huh… that wasn’t quite as good but uh wasn’t too bad I guess#you’ll say: probably just an off season. let’s keep going#you’ll watch season 3. it does not improve#but the fact of the matter is that there is JUST enough#you’ll catch whiffs and glances of that spirit and heart from season one#that camraderie and joy will infect you. It will poison you. until you keep desperate scrambling- just another season. just another season#because it HAS to get better right?#but it doesn’t. It’s like doing ketamine. the more you take the more you need. and it never helps.#you’re left with a hollow and empty feeling because it feels like the show stripped ITSELF of its own heart and soul#you’re lost. confused. hurt.#there’s nowhere to turn.#…………………….#or maybe you’ll be fine since you won’t have a hyperactive fandom of thousands egging each other on and feeding everyone’s delusions!

but at least San posted a video of him petting Byeol so really how bad can life be
#igby’s chatter#igby’s venting#(or tag-venting i guess)#i’ve been so stressed my body kickstarted my period a week early AND triggered my eczema#which i haven’t had in like 10 years so that’s cool pff never let your guard down folks!#just the standard baseline chronic bullshit wasn’t good enough anymore i guess lol#but hey at least we got atz content that devastated me on multiple deeply foundational levels 👍

lies down on the floor. AGH
#complaining tag#augh idk how to word this but like. i’m chinese. i was born in china and i wasn’t raised there but you can’t scrub it off of me#no matter how hard i used to try and. i wouldn’t call myself dark but by asian beauty standards? i would be#and we have. a singular white headmate that keeps getting startled to look down and see our hands are brown#and just. EGHJKK. AUGH. DON’T LIKE IT!!!!#i’m in that weird diasporia zone where i’m not really chinese enough anymore to feel at home in chinese communities#i don’t know the language of the country i was born in#only a few scattered words and half holidays and traditions#but i’m never going to be american enough to be. gesture#and like. the headmate is cool they’re fine and it’s not like we have any control over this but#it just feels. NOT GOOD? to have that experience of being surprised by our skin and our eyes and our hair and. AUGH#it’s like the embodiment of my attempts as a kid to be as white as i could the erasure of being. flops on the floor like a fish IDKKKK#it’s not a big deal i guess it’s just. weird? all of us more or less have some vague acknowledgment or recognition of being chinese#and to have a complete and utter disconnect stare you down like that is Not Awesome#shrug it’s ok so it goes i guess

absolutely nothing will give you imposter syndrome like being awarded something in public
#Genuinely very flattered but also bitch I wasn’t ready#I was half zoned out and in the middle of a seat row#I had to climb over chairs and people#I was *so* flustered#Really happy because I’ve worked really hard and like yeah I guess it makes sense that I’d win that??? But also like#I don’t win things. Basically ever.#I was totally at peace with not being pointed out#It just never occurred to me that I’m good enough for public recognition#Also it wasn’t like a “good attitude” or “super helpful” award it’s an award for outstanding technique#I’m just used to being shit at things and it’s given me whiplash

very gradually feeling less like shit after whatever the hell that was
#rhyn rambles#good morning i had an awful night :)#i had this weird soreness/cramp near my right hip that i immediately convinced myself was a sign of appendicitis#pretty sure it wasn’t because it didn’t really hurt#and that was annoying enough but then it didn’t go away and sort of spread up my right side#but it wasn’t pain or anything it was just. pressure i guess?#i kept trying to sleep but i just couldn’t until it finally stopped being super uncomfortable around 6#and i woke up at 9 or so all dehydrated and nauseous from the lack of sleep#i fucking. hate having a body to take care of#2025 will be my year

Seeing everyone praise an author in the comments of a TikTok and I’m wondering if I just read one of her duds or if I just didn’t “get it”
#I’m gonna give the author the benefit of the doubt because tbf the one I read I don’t remember having an issue with the actual writing#moreso I just felt that the concept of the book could have been good but was instead just rehashing famous mistreated women in comics#fuck it I’ll be more clear here and say names and titles#the book I read is the refrigerator monologues#by Catherynne Valente#and idk I was so excited about the premise of wronged women meeting up in the afterlife and getting to interact and engage with each other#but what it actually was was basically just rehashing actual stories of women comic book characters and how they were wronged#with very little interaction between them#like I definitely appreciate what the book was trying to do but I feel like since all the characters are parodies of marvel/dc female charas#there wasn’t enough actual new-ness injected into their backstories#I guess if you view the book as more a collection than a novel it’s better but ehhhh I just feel like I go crazy when I see every review#about this book praise it so extensively#and any bad review is just ‘feminism bad’ which is NOT why I don’t like the book#anyways rant over this is incomprehensible lol#tbd probs#white weasel talks

#i do not want to work tomorrow i want to lay in bed and be sad#i’m really realizing how miserable of a person i am i am always fucking Sad and when i do feel happy i cry when it’s over#and i can’t even resemble a human being without medication and i know that’s fine but i’m still always sad. it doesn’t go away#i feel like nobody deserves to have me weighing them down like i’ve cried in front of people three times this week and i know it’s fine#but i feel so fucking guilty about it and i feel guilty about everything i feel like i’m doing nothing right and i’m not dealing with thing#right and i’m not living right and i feel like it must be so fucking difficult to love me and i don’t know how people do it#i don’t even feel capable of asking for. any sort of love ever#i feel like i don’t deserve like anything. i feel like nobody actually wants to do things for me lol#every single dsy i’m like wow i want to be held and every single dsy i feel bad even asking for a hug from someone#when i need reassurance i’m afraid to ask because what if i’m just being annoying and overbearing and too much Bad#i never feel like too much good. only bad.#i know a lot of these shitty thoughts are just because i’ve been unmedicated (meds will be ready tomorrow lol) but it just like#it sucks to know medication just kinda hides these thoughts better and that deep down i feel like this because i don’t want to#i feel like everyone in my life doesn’t deserve someone who doubts everything all the time#i think my mother deserved a stronger daughter and i think my friends deserve someone that’s not always breaking and i just don’t feel Good#i don’t know why anyone keeps me around#sometimes i feel selfish for sticking around and that sounds so awful and i’m not gonna act on it but i just feel like a waste of a person#the last week has been so good and now i’m just a fucking mess and i feel so fucking guilty about that :)#i feel like no matter what i always just default to miserable#i don’t feel like i’m doing enough at all#i’m struggling in school i don’t work enough i can barely take care of myself#like i wouldn’t even properly take care of myself if taylor wasn’t helping me i feel so guilty about that all the time#i feel so guilty for even thinking any of this right now and i’m trying to remind myself that i’m unmedicated and i’ve had a long day#and my best fucking friend just went back home and i’m allowed to be sad about that but i just. feel like i’m making excuses i guess#it’s not immoral to be sad but maybe when i’m wanting to die all the time i’m the problem. idk#anyway i’m gonna go to sleep and i’m gonna try to convince myself tomorrow will be better#sndnsksjkakejdkalwosjhdkwosjdjsk. i will be fine

Yeah ok Maggie and Nina’s storyline was like if Miracle Workers s1 was bad.
#that’s not true I liked most of it. but it could’ve been better.#specifically if everything was less about crowley and aziraphale#I do think the actresses did a very good job though#…#anyway.#maybe I’m wrong and I definitely still need to sleep on it but it felt so empty#like. ‘well you did magic on us to force us to fall in love. so don’t do that. and also this is why it’s still all about you’#..#ok I’m done being a hater <3#.#I lied#The Ball could’ve been SO GOOD but it was like. manipulating our emotions and forcing us to dance but who cares there’s plot happening!#they gave us a sliver of ‘hey this is fucked up’ and never brought it up again#they got tormented just enough that it wasn’t worth getting more into I guess.#good omens 2#good omens spoilers#good omens#I’m ignoring the gabriel of it all. for my health.#also there should have been less crowley and Aziraphale overall remember when they wouldn’t even be there for half the episode?
