Rest in Peace 🪦 Kermit the Frog

Beloved by the Joker, the Croaker, God

Wrongfully imprisoned in the meat closet, murdered by emos and died in agony. Taken too soon.

Hear the cries? The howls? You are hearing the brotherhood.. sisterhood… nonbinary hood (ally!) of the Muppet Joker.

May you and The Croaker be reunited in the afterlife once the time has come. And may sex in heaven be awesome.

Amen.

(written in my break room at work.. stay on that grind)

I hc that after Bruce’s infamous spine-breaking fight with Bane, all the Batkids pitch in and get Bruce one of those super bougie gamer chairs for the Bat-Computer. Like this thing is all leather, it’s got cup holders and LED lights, and that bad boy swivels smoother than butter.

It’s also bright fucking red. Robin red.

day 22: grumpy vs sunshine 💖⛈️☀️

i know i know, you’re all shocked it took me this long to draw werewolf AU for @bucktommyfluffebruary 🌙🐺

and yes, buck is the grumpy one here. him and chris were playing in the rain while tommy and eddie went to the gym and he tracked mud into eddie’s house. an indignant bath was involved:

Sometimes I wish asexuality and aromanticism weren’t so often lumped together in online communities. Obviously, I would never begrudge an aroace person the right to tag both of their identities in a post about, well, both of their identities. But as an ace person who isn’t aro, sometimes I wish I could scroll the ace tag and see more things that were JUST about being ace and not about being aro.

Hey did you guys know that a lot of psych-meds (SSRIs, SNRIs, et al) can cause tooth decay? Because I didn’t until a dentist mentioned it to me; no psychiatrist or GP prescribing me those drugs over the years thought to mention it

(I’m not a dentist but I was told that because they cause dry mouth, that increases your risk of tooth problems, particularly if you’re taking them for a long time)

ok... now time to address some SIMNEWS. regarding the recent trailer.

what. i mean what. i mean. what. ok. the first sims handheld acknowledgement by the main franchise… like ever? ok. there was Tycho Curious mentioned in a description a while back, but.......

anyhow. i’ve always held the position that i didn’t want to see them bring back any of the handheld characters. (I do not trust them to bring them back "correctly." While also really, really wanting to see what they would do with them.) Given, this makes me VERY happy and thank goodness I didn’t find out about this at 10pm or else I wouldn't have been able to sleep until 4!

i do like the direction they took her design. The robe is a great interpretation of her original outfit. All the jewelry is great too! although i do feel as if they should’ve integrated the flowers into her headscarf. the silloutte definitely gives the illusion of it, so it's more of a nitpick. Oh, and no cane. RIP Gramma Hattie your disabilities are being erased.

and… running a bakery makes some sense. gramma hattie liking cooking is an established part of her character. cooking is her favorite topic to talk about (a +4), and she gives the player a cookbook after you ward off Daddy Bigbucks and Lily/Darius from her meeting. It’s weird to think of her character as a ‘Small Business Owner,’ but it’s not out-of-character either. She supports the local market (one of her favorite topics!) and views it as a way to connect with her community.

I’m going to be curious on how they characterize her in the final product. I’m hoping they don’t reduce her to just liking baking… because she’s a political activist at her core and everything else about her character works to supplement that.

I'm not sure why they would do Gramma Hattie over like, Phoebe Twiddle, who does actually own a small business. I'm guessing that it's because Gramma is easier to implement. But I'm glad she's here anyways!

Oh. and according to someone on the wiki (I have no idea what the source for this is), apparently they gave her a last name. (EDIT: ok i see where is comes from.) "Hattie Loden." I'm not a fan of that name right now, plus we refer to Gramma as "Mrs. Hattie" during the Urbz, so I assumed that her last name was Hattie due to that... Anyways. Just a nitpick.

And there’s also ummm

They don't call him "Cannonball Coleman" in the trailer, but that looks. way too much like Cannonball Coleman for me NOT to say anything. Green hat, green suit, goatee, and a hint of gold… could be a guy pulling from the same character archetype as Coleman but that would be weird to include in the same pack as Gramma Hattie.

And the fact that I can’t tell that it’s Coleman or not does speak to the design here. I’m not the biggest fan of the suit. It just doesn't seem right to me. But I like everything else! He looks much older than he did in his previous iterations, and honestly that's great. He was always meant to be an older cast member, but the Urbz (Handheld) has a disease where all characters in it have to look either 20, 35, or 70. So, it’s nice that they redesigned him to look older! The problem is that he doesn’t quite look like the character anymore (given, of course, that that IS him)

I can’t really say anything about him running a club because he just. Literally does that in The Sims 2 for DS, so great character choice!

I do have a question about both of them being in a world called "Nordhaven." Both Coleman & Hattie are very much characters made to live in Sims New Orleans, so that also reads to me as odd to add them to such a European world.

oh and one more thing

That’s… probably Crispin Black? From the Urbz (Console). Odd to have him and not any of Central Station or other tattoo artists in your Pottery and Tattoos pack, but I’m only complaining a little because. Dear lord. He’s like if you put him through a cheese grater and then tried to squeeze all the pieces together. A bit odd of a choice of character to take from The Urbz (Console), given that it's the Random Unrelated Hobbies Of Tattoos, Pottery, and Candy pack and there are characters who actually run a tattoo parlor in that game (Central Station. well. peircing parlor. but tattoos are something they do too.), but I'm guessing they probably didn't want to deviate from their Designated Pack Style to fit punks in it.

anyways! that is all. thank you for listening. my extremely low yet highly specific expectations from the 25th Sims Birthday bash ('mention the Sims handhelds') have been met.

we’re in the final stretch, kids! today is payday so i sent in a few more dollars in the name of @alliwantforchristmasislou. $50 again to the trevor project, and $50 to sage (Services & Advocacy for GLBT Elders) + fees 💖🫶

we already know the trevor project but sage, if you don’t know, provides assistance in taking care of our elder queer community, those who may not have support or care from their blood family in their older years. it’s an awesome program.

and i’ll take this moment to share some more of the christmas tommy-related doodles i’ve drawn for friends this season, just while we’re still in the appropriate time of year ❄️🎄💖

hey you guys know that even if the people inside that submersible are rich billionaires, dying in that metal tube at the bottom of the ocean is a horrific way to die right. like. yeah stupid choices were made by the people in there signing off on a waiver that says the sub is not approved by anyone and they could die. but it’s the fault of OceanGate for knowingly putting people into a Home Depot DIY sub rigged up with an Xbox controller all to make a profit on people’s curiosity.

something that shouldn’t be a hot take but is: the reason that it seems like all the “mediocre” writers have a ton of books at the “good” writers don’t isn’t bc DC loves to reward mediocrity or favoritism or w/e (or at least it’s not only that).

the reason is bc no matter how good a writer is, if you give them too many projects with unmovable deadlines that they have to juggle, the quality is going to inevitably start slipping somewhere bc they’re rushing to get things done. it’s the same reason a lot of books will have a really strong 3-6 issues at the start before the quality starts to dip – usually when you pitch a book, you already have the first arc planned out.

you would think the way to combat this would be to give writers less books, but unfortunately the nature of freelance is that most of the writers (and artists) who work for DC don’t get paid enough to live on from writing only a single book. if writing comics is your only source of income and you need to do it to eat, you’re going to try to take on as many additional projects as you feel like you can handle.

imo the solution to this should, in theory, be for DC to put writers on salary instead of freelance and pay them better to focus more on fewer projects, but DC doesn’t want to pay them for shit bc they think they should be grateful for even having the honor of working there.

At my most uncharitable, I wouldn’t be surprised if Martin’s whole ‘appear unassuming and bumbling in order to manipulate the people around him into doing what he wants’ extended to the supposed feelings he had for Jon and that in fact a huge part of JMart being together was because Martin saw Jon as a means to an ends (I.e., his very survival) and that everything he said to him during the apocalypse and whatever we didn’t see during their time in the safe house was calculated and when they were finally free of the horrors that Martin would’ve skipped out of town.
