Tumblr is the only place I can ask this because I cannot for the life of me find the right words to google
You know that meme where it's a two panel cartoon of two guys and one says he's going to do something and then the other one interrupts to say 'the something-er'. It's really simple line drawings of just vaguely human shapes
Where'd that come from. What's the original. What is going on with that

Hi isat fandom. Points at the sign.
#ocean surely nobody actuall-‘ I’ve seen enough arts that get this wrong. yes it’s real I’ve seen it#the bitter ocean talks#anyway if anyone is genuinely confused on how to draw Mirabelle on model the creator of the game has a post showing how to draw her hair#and also Google is free. Hope this helps.#anyway yeah. 👍🏾#idk man it kind of gets irritating to see as a black person#when people complain about how hard it is to draw characters who look like you and say that it ‘doesn’t fit my style’ or whatever#I’m not saying anyone is perfect but like you could make the effort. to grow and learn perhaps

so the good place is widely lauded on this site for its takes on morality and capitalism, which i totally agree with
but i think it should get more recognition for the line "all humans are aware of death. so we're all a little bit sad all the time. that's just the deal. we don't get offered any better ones. and if you try and ignore your sadness, it just ends up leaking out of you anyway. i've been there, and everybody's been there. so don't fight it. in the words of a very wise bed bath and beyond employee i once knew - go ahead and cry all you want. but you're gonna have to pay for that toilet plunger."
#i dunno i've been thinking about grief lately#and i think the nature of humanity is everyone's grieving something#it might not always be as straightforward as the death of a loved one - sometimes it is#but sometimes you're grieving a life you never got to live#the person you used to be#hell an old toy you just realised you lost years ago and are never going to get back#we're all just a little bit sad all the time#and i think looking at the world like that makes it a lot more friendly place#because everyone is someone who needs a bit of comfort - or just someone to say hey its okay to be sad and angry and confused#and when you're finally ready to let whatever you're grieving go the world will be a happier place#and you'll find a new thing to grieve because there's always something to be a little bit sad about#but the world keeps getting better for every one you get through and every friend who helps you through it#and sometimes you just need to throw a dumb joke in there at the end#that's what it means to be human#the good place#tgp

whenever i've worked in retail it has always been emphasised that the Thing To Do when a customer comes in is to approach them and do a big smile and go "hi, how are you!! do you need help finding anything today?" (or something similar).
i thought it was universally agreed that nobody enjoys this, but my friend informs me that apparently this line not only works but noticeably improves sales. so, poll:
#when i go into a store i just want them to ignore me and let me browse in peace#it's nothing personal i'm just not always in the mood to talk and i hate feeling obligated to buy things#if i'm an employee and i see someone wandering around looking lost or confused then i will check on them#but otherwise i'll just assume that they know what they're here for and will approach me if they need help#be shh now

Cross has trouble getting to sleep alone in his room and goes looking for a distraction, but ends up finding a solution for both of them
#UTDR#UTMV#Cross Sans#Killer Sans#Kross ship#(Kinda. It's up to interpretation)#Long post#I'm so sorry I didn't mean for it to be THIS much#I started this like a week ago -A-#Lies down and lets out a long howl it's finisheeeeeed#I could have just drawn them spooning and written the rest but noooo I love to do things the hard way#Anyway I think they should be bed buddies#The company helps Cross relax enough to sleep and the touch helps knock Killer out#Cross has to be big spoon because otherwise Killer's soul gets squished and it's too uncomfortable to sleep#Also I realised Cross and Nightmare are the only two in the castle who didn't have knock knock jokes in their backstory#I like to imagine Nightmare has had similar confusing interactions with at least one of them#Cross probably spends the rest of the day panicked that he overstepped a boundary or the others will make fun of him#Not realising that Dust and Horror have fallen asleep together many times#Or that Killer hasn't slept properly in weeks and he's in heaven#I'm NOT drawing a follow up so just imagine Killer coming to Cross's room the next night and finding every excuse to stay#Because he wants it to happen again but he has no idea how to ask (and also Cross seems kinda awkward about it)#Absolutely terrified that I spent my whole week off working on this and it might be not that great so I hope at least one person likes this

Elendil makes this genre of face whenever he's mildly perturbed. Peeved. Perplexed. His flabbers gasted
#personal faves are the middle + bottom right + middle 2 on the left (which are all coincidentally related to Isildur being a menace)#Lloyd said in an interview that Isildur reminds Elendil of his younger self#which really explains his reactions to him getting up to shenanigans lmao#not to cover up the cute little shrimp in the meme BUT#all of these except the top left one are from season 1#however that look of confused concern to Earien reminded me of the others#I'm sure there's about to be a lot more he looks quite befuddled in the preview when Miriel puts her hand on his chest#Elendil#Lloyd Owen#The Rings of Power#Elendilf#Rings of Power#TROP#ROP#the lord of the rings#the lord of the rings: the rings of power#lotr: rop#lotr#Numenor#lotr memes#rop memes#trop memes#me when im huh??? im wuh????#that tag is not gonna help me find this again later lol

That terf comment is baffling to me. Are they mad you didn’t give the wolves big human tits to indicate if they were female?? Big wolf bonkahonkahugaloos??
i think they are fighting ghosts and losing
#i think transphobia is just an actual form of encephalopathy your brain deteriorates over time if you dont get help#the initial thing that made that person mad was obv the boys and enbies additions#which does not make this behavior any less bizzare#not just bc they got confused about which drawing they were supposed to be mad about but#getting mad and starting an argument abt trans people bc of illustrations of animals having fun#that cant be explained by simple mistake or language barrier its just derangement

My favorite brand of Ratiorine is definitely:
"They both experienced immediate attraction upon seeing the other and are (silently) interested in the possibility of pursuing a relationship, regardless of their differences and the difficulties of their situations."
But also:
"Despite being two of the most hyper-competent people in the universe, they are absolutely idiot4idiot when it comes to romance or discussing their feelings, and they are about to make their complete inability to express themselves and court like normal people into everybody's problem."
#honkai star rail#ratiorine#aventio#dr. ratio x aventurine#I just love the idea that Ratiorine might be the one ship where#BOTH parties were like “Oh no he's gorgeous”#BOTH thinking “I could spend the rest of my life with this person”#zero back-and-forth “Do I really like him? Maybe I'm just confused--”#nope just right from the start “Oh I'm in trouble”#but STILL#not able to get their shit together#still just completely unable to SPIT IT OUT#absolute chaos and drama#ridiculous hijinks#all over a relationship they both desperately want to be in#🤣🤣🤣#and like#it's one of those#“Everyone can see it”#so everyone else in the known universe is watching like#“Should we maybe help them???”#but there's no saving this#theyre both just going to have to put their big boy pants on#and *shudder* discuss their feelings

MacCready being one of the few companions to not lose affinity if you eat people makes sense when you remember the fungus in Little Lamp Light grew from decomposing bodies. Like the kids weren’t eating people directly but they were eating people adjacent things.
Not to mention how the Lone Wanderer can trick the kids at LLL into buying “strange meat” to eat which is just human so it’s more likely than not they have just straight up ate people so he’s either very desensitized, knows what food desperation can do to people or feels he really has not ground to stand on since he was in the same boat whether he wanted to be or not.
#like everytime I think of little lamplight and MacCreadys backstory it gets more fucked up cause like#children are kinda like not treated as such in fallout due to the nature of the wastes and that leads to such fucked up events#like of all the companions I forget that MacCready really has never like had stability and it sure as hell affects his confusing affinity#gains and loses but also like I just ate a person and that’s wrong but he can’t say cause I bet he found out in cases where the player gave#the kids strange meat what it was and was horrified but feels bad because it was probably the only good meals the kids had their in a while#he struggles with the idea that he knows it’s helped them live and that he enjoyed it#again like there’s always one follower with like a super fucked up backstory and like next to Cait MacCready takes the cake for fallout 4#just for how young he for all this to have happened and the responsibility he had#cause he’s like potentially the youngest next to piper? like he’s 22#fallout#fallout 4#fo4#robert joseph maccready#like he shouldn’t be at the club he should be idk playing madden or cursing at people in a Fortnite lobby#maccready

seriously I don’t think any show has captured the pain of being a bystander more than miseinen. like i just can’t stop thinking about everything he’s told in this episode and everything he sees and how powerless he is to do anything about it. when you say bystander, you think of people that chose to do nothing, who just stand on the sidelines and watch but don’t get involved. and maybe that’s how minase started out, but this show proves over and over again that it’s not a choice anymore. given the choice and ability, minase would stand up and do something. he’s not the person anymore stood outside hirukawa’s house with the emergency number dialed but ultimately doesn’t do it. bc he cares too much now, and when you care, you want to help. but the world is so rigid in what they expect of him and hirukawa that there is no way to help.
i keep thinking about what the teacher said at the start of the ep. this doesn’t concern you. it’s already settled. don’t make your parents worry. when minase says he’s telling the truth, he’s told to focus on what’s important- and so the truth isn’t important here, neither is what hirukawa thinks or minase thinks. it’s what someone has already decided they are, and they are just too busy or just don’t care enough to go to the effort to see whether that decision is right. it doesn’t affect them whether hirukawa is the awful person they think he is or misunderstood, to them he’s just a part of the job they want to deal with and move on. even though no other adults are as present as hirukawa’s dad or minase’s mom, the show still has these small moments that show us that there is no other option for them to get help bc no one at school cares either. i said before they live in a world of ignorance where they’re unable to ignore, and so they deal with it all instead of being able to find help. and it feels equally horrible when you consider that unlike a parent, who yes should feel some responsibility or obligation but ultimately there’s nothing holding them to that, teachers are employed and paid to care, they should help these kids as much as they teach them, so to see them chose ignorance too is just as hurtful.
and back to minase, this episode showed us perfectly how much it can hurt when you know you can’t do anything. he can’t comfort hirukawa no matter how much he wants to if hirukawa won’t let him, he can’t change his mind and how he thinks of himself bc hirukawa’s trauma traps him in that mindset. he can’t stay by hirukawa’s side and support him if hirukawa sends him anyway, he can’t fight against what someone who’s hurting wants, all he can do is listen, bc no one ever listens to what hirukawa wants, so he will, even if it hurts him, even if he knows that it’ll hurt hirukawa too. minase is done with being a bystander but even here he is forced to be one, bc the truth doesn’t get through to hirukawa just like it didn’t get through to that teacher. what’s right, which would be to stay with hirukawa and help him, doesn’t matter just like it didn’t matter to that teacher, all he can do is listen and do as they say when people tell him to walk away, that he can’t do anything. and that’s why this show is excellent, bc it makes me feel the pain of knowing but being powerless just as much as I do the pain of actually experiencing these things.
#I might be a bit broken#this show is just too good#it’s too excellent#the acting from these two this ep was just fucking off the charts#the way hirukawa’s response to this was almost cold and stoic you could see the shock and the confusion of what he’s supposed to feel about#this and you also get the moments where the hurt and emotion breaks through and he just breaks down#and you get the desperation that minase feels to help and support and stop hirukawa from blaming himself. he just wants to do something even#if it’s just be there for him and make it so that he doesn’t have to go through this alone but he can’t even do that bc he can’t fight what#hirukawa wants even if he knows it’s not what he truly wants- he knows how hirukawa feels about him but he also knows how difficult this is#for hirukawa to reckon with and he knows how hirukawa will burden himself before he does anyone else and that’s not good but it’s what#hirukawa thinks and feels and as much as you want to stop that there’s no switch no magic words he can say to get him out of that mindset#and so he has to go bc it’s what hirukawa wants and minase is the only person that actually listens to him#god I’m in pain#miseinen#our youth

So I’ve been working on a group project at school with this group of three girls. (They’re like already an established friend group, I just joined because my friends wanted to do I project about video games and honestly I’m a video game hater) Now that’s all fine and whatever- I have a lotta friends who are girls so I figured there was nothing too different here. But istg these girls keep telling me stuff that “girls do/like” that I have never heard of?? I’d wonder if they’re fucking with me, except that they’re so earnest about it that it doesn’t seem like a joke 😭
For example, they told me a bit ago that “You boys don’t understand how much scent matters when it comes to girls liking you.” And at first that made sense- I mean yeah duh hygiene is important. Showering is important too. Fine. But when I said that, they all shook their heads.
“No,” one of them clarified matter-of-factly, “we mean like base scents. Your natural scent.”
So I was confused, obviously, because I have never heard of this??
Apparently what they meant was that everyone’s got a distinct scent, and that -allegedly- girls can tell what it is. I was still confused. Like ik about natural body scent and whatever but I didn’t think it smelled like anything in particular except for like…sweat, yk? But no, apparently it’s very complex and well-known and “You don’t get it because you’re a man. See look, Lyn smells like mango and fruit. This is an example of a ‘heavier’ scent. People with heavier scents tend to be attracted to people with heavier scents too. Smell her wrist.”
It smelled like wrist. I am so confused.
“Now Casper, you smell like cinnamon and warm spices. That’s pretty good. You should use spicy and woodsy-smelling colognes so that it combines well.”
I smelled my wrist- it smelled like wrist, not cinnamon. And “combines well” ?? Huh?? Genuinely, is this like a thing people actually notice that I just…haven’t heard of?? I really doubt they’re bullshitting it because they went really in depth and seem to really believe it- are they just living in a parallel universe where that’s common knowledge??
I mean this is just one of many similar instances. Some others include “Girls like guys who have long hair and think all guys with short hair are ugly. Not you tho Casper because you have wavy short hair and that’s different!” and “Girls don’t feel pain as strongly as guys do, which is the biological tradeoff for not building muscle as fast” and “Men know they have problems but don’t fix them. Women usually don’t know when they have problems, but when they do, they try to fix them.” To most of these I’ve said some variation of “What?” or “huh?” or “I’m pretty sure that’s just y’all specifically,” but they usually say it’s true and like. Well-known?! Idk I think they’re gaslighting me and/or maybe themselves?? Or am I just really unaware or something??
#rambling#personal stuff#help I’m so lost 😭#does anyone know what they’re TALKING ABOUT?? Cos I really really don’t 😭#ik this is very rigid-gender-roles-y but I’M NOT THE ONE SAYING IT THE GIRLS ARE#this has been a very confusing few months

SHARENA WEEK DAY 2!!!!
Bit too tired and short on time to design an alt for her, but I made up for it by drawing her cute face a whole lot :)
#Pick a fav! I personally enjoy the two top corners#experimenting with some half tones on this one! I think I prefer it's colored effects on clothes than on hair and faces tbh#Side note but Sharena deserves a genuinely angry face in her portraits#Her and Alfonse don't always look the most related but this could be helped by giving them similar facial expressions#Like ah. That's the same angry expression ain't it? And they raise the same eyebrow when confused too. Stuff like that.#feh sharena#fe sharena#sharena week#sharenaweek2024#feh#fire emblem#fire emblem heroes#art tag

Big fan of all the depictions of Mario that have him as a kindly uncle figure guy. Love that for him
#super mario bros#mario bros#mario#super mario#Like yeah he might also be a famous Hero Of Legend guy who’s famous throughout the mushroom kingdom#and maybe might also have some ‘pot smashing cryptid’ style vibes a la that one post about Link#but also. him just being the kind of guy who stops to help you when you break down on the side of the road#/offers to come help take a look at the plumbing or help you fix a button just bc ‘he has some time’ and ‘it’s just the right thing to do’#and always seems genuinely (albeit pleasantly) suprised when someone recognizes him#even though he’s saved the world/kingdom many times#I feel like he’d be the kind of person to look at a creepypasta/horror fangame someone made#and be. A little confused but still supportive of the creativity and effort involved#and ‘glad that they’re having-a fun’ as long as it’s not like actively mean-spirited or anything-#like. ‘He’s a little confused but he’s got the spirit’/‘everyone’s dad friend’ vibe (despite also being a little chaotic in his own way)#Also bonus points if he’s older but also bonus points if he’s like. barely 30/late 20’s but just Has That Vibe#Like. barely 30’s/late 20’s guy who happens to come off as a middle aged father/uncle#multi rambles
