yanno, i wasn't sure why i got immediately obsessed with the takara ponies but then i remembered how I love anthros so much i was considering getting a g1 pony and somehow beheading it and sticking it on a custom made anthro body and i was like oh wait. yes this is right up my wheelhouse.
Anyways these are half based on promo photos I found online and half based on the other information and illustrations I found on this website, because apparently the colors were different than the promos. If anyone knows of a webpage where the box promo stuff is translated I'd be interested to see it; I tried to give these guys simple personalities.
#the personalities are cute nerd shy and cool#i didnt say they were complex#every doll line needs rollerskates#my little pony#takara pony#anthro pony#art doll but its just like a picture#digital art#character design

not spop-related but i can't post this on my main blog so.
i do find it funny how most of the fan depictions of belos were far more interesting and detailed than s3 belos. i've seen fanart and fanfics of him where he's a complex villain struggling with religious guilt and then the canon is just like.. lmao yeah he's pure evil. kill him.
#i feel like belos is the opposite of catra#a potentially sympathetic villain who is reduced to Evil Man Who Deserves Death™#don't get me wrong i'm not saying he should have been forgiven or anything#he didn't deserve forgiveness#and he didnt really need a redemption arc#but did they have to throw away all of his complexity just to appease the anti steven universe community?#that's what it felt like#fun fact: you can write a sympathetic/complex villain and not redeem them#it's perfectly doable#but oh well#toh critical#toh salt#toh criticism#anti toh#toh discourse#belos#emperor belos#philip wittebane#bad writing#i was so excited for his character at first#especially around hollow mind era because the layers were peeling back#and we were seeing a really interesting and intimidating villain in the making#sigh#my disappointment is immeasurable and my day is ruined

having a normal one watching Bdubs lim life tonight and thinking about how when Bdubs betrayed Tango in last life, Skizz told Tango that for the sake of team best he had to go and forgive him.
But when Bdubs boogey kills Skizz in lim life before team ties is even really formed, Skizz is allowed to have it out for Bdubs for almost the entire first half of the season, even when the clockers ally with them and it would've been easier to let sleeping dogs lie.
Tango, the perpetually extraneous and undervalued member of his alliances...the too often shoved aside and betrayed...being told it was his duty to the team to forgive bdubs and move on....
But no one—especially not Tango—tried to tell Skizz to let it go.
#and like. now im thinking about how no one is ever really ride or die for tango. ever#people are allied with him but no one PRIORITIZES him#as a team rancher fan myself id be tempted to argue Jimmy is but you can just as easily point to how that was in a way self serving#and I dont just mean with the soulmate mechanic so worrying about tango was worrying about himself for jimmy#but i mean it in the way of jimmy was so worried about tango because#jimmy was worried about HIMSELF being the thing that hindered him and dragged him down#whihc is not to say that jimmy didnt also worry about tango#but it is to say that the dl rule set played heavily on jimmys insecurities and fears#he was most of the time worried about himself. YES because of how that affected tango. but also because it served his guilt complex#and so his intentions were colored by that as someone whos incredibly willing to make himself the problem whenevr he sees fit#whihc is again nothing on him hes my fave ya know i love the guy#i just mean even in double life where by design it shouldve happened tango wasnt made anyones top priority#not in the way that we come to see it across many other pairs. not in the obsessive worrying about his safety#or just in the general Being Weird About Each Other Way#sure you could argue skizz and tango last life...tango was for a while skizzs priority—until skizz shifted his sights to team best#even when team best wasnt giving their all backt o him that was skizzs focus#and if tango were really his priority over the wellbeing of the team such as it was for bdubs and etho#skizz wouldnt have tried to make tango forgive bdubs after he was betrayed#skizz wouldnt have kept asking tango to give more and more to a team he got little if not nothing out of over and over.....just#GAH! NO ONES EVER DEVOTED TO TANGO!!! NO ONE EVER CHOOSES TANGO TO BE THEIR //PERSON// THEIR. HES NEVER SOMEONES TOP PRIORITY#again im nto saying teh ranchers werent devoted to each other you know i love them more than anything in the whole world#i just mean. not in exactly the way i mean....#and not completely when jimmy was so (understadnably) preoccupied with trying not to carry on his curse again#especially while attached to someone else#worm says

I I want draw a little creature doing the will smith My Wife pose so I can out text in place of th wife. For situations where i have thoughts but cant put them into drawings. Because just talking doesnt compute
#not an art#Sometimes it's just a phrase and I'm like OK CLASS DISCUSS. BC I CANT.#today: Fuyuhiko is the only person in class (presumably) who has committed murder without Junkos influence.#What does that do for his guilt complex when hes trying to not be a terrorist anymore. When you're the only Actually Bad Person#Who didnt need master manipulation to do it. You're just a different sort and who's to say you can ever be trusted#When you've known what ur capable of since you were like 13#I keep having a dialogue in my head like 'you're all just remembering what you can do under specific circumstance but I always knew'#CLASS DISCUSS bc I cant simplify that into art#I do touch on it in my mind fic but who knows if that will ever see the light of day#Not an art#Just woke up harshly still a little weird in the head so scuse me

Well that happened. That was a DLC.
#i havent even finished it yet but i got to the final boss phase 2 so its basically done#but uhm yeah#i have so so many thoughts (i wanna try hold em off til i beat the final boss - i want to read the lore) but basically:#music: 10/10 incredible as always#gameplay: 9/10#<- the new weapons the AREAS bro the areas some of the best in the game#and tbh most of the bosses i found fun#they are far from perfect (except you rellana girl i love youuuuuu) but most of them are great#<- final boss not included because i only just got to him today and tbh its like#fine ig but i KNOW its gonna be like messmer aka rip my frame rate#story: 5/10#why were the side line npcs better stories than the main crew#the main crew individually were honestly solid but the dlc as a whole really idk#im not sure how to describe it but the story is kinda just... there#tbh i knew miquella was gonna be a bastard i didnt believe that miquella the kind stuff for a second#and tbh hes a complex character#but idk its liek the whole story was about him but i feel im so lost on what was actually going on#so overall: i wanna say 9/10 even though i didnt vibe with the story i had so much fun with the dlc as a whole that it was worth it for me#i feel like from passing bits ive seen thats an unpopular opinion but idgaf i enjoyed it#now i need to go stare at rellana art and finish my tarnished riku piece#best part of the dlc was the drip actually the drip was peak#and a certain weapon#i could probably name drop it but its my new fav weapon its just a classic i love it to bits#elden ring spoilers#uh just in case

#i will warn you only once: tsc spoilers#literally just finished it as i am drafting this its 5am where i live#so you may be subjected to some nonsense#that all being said i have thoughts.and feelings#the kevin was lovely and tasted delicious! jean defending him at every turn even when he swears to hell and back he'll kick his ass#the kevjean was surprising i was only half expecting that#the dog metaphors i have to say i need this one cashed in. nora run me my check#im joking of course dont quote me on it#jean taking kevins promise to the end and living on it is seriously so. well.#'be careful with him' 'take kevin's name out of your ignorant mouth' 'you promised me'#also kevin getting called the court's queen had me tender and on my back oml#jean's relationship with the trojans is sweet and he is very interesting and complicated#a character with many moving parts im sure#there were a few things i did not care for#namely jeremy and the trojans felt remarkably flat to me bar lucas (by far the most interesting) and catalina on occasion#i didnt quite enjoy jeremy's pov and felt like he spent perhaps way too much time worrying over jean? if that makes sense#i wish he had some more complexity to him or really anything to catch a hook on#all we know is hes attractive and smiley and gets along terribly with his family#so much of his character is sucked out by jean he didnt feel like much more than a plot device to me#which i wouldnt mind if jeremy wasnt the literal main character alongside jean#i was living for everything jean thought but had to drag myself through jeremy's pov if im honest#uuuuh what else. neil! funny. deranged. i have to love him#andrew couldnt give less of a fuck about jean which is funny as all fuck#two bugs placed in the same habitat ignoring each other#the thing with elodie i thought was complicated. i wish we knew some more about her or that shed been mentioned a little earlier#but im assuming thats a topic to be revisited#uuuuuuuh yeah so thats most of it. i think my first thought and the one that sticked out the most to me is that the book felt remarkably#pedestrian#not necessarily in a bad way#it lacked to me one of the main appeals of aftg which were the numerous interesting side characters

one of the dramas from the wedding was one of the grooms cousins (on the other side not mine) just not wearing the clothes we had made for her specifically
#i think they cost smth like 1 lakh rupees so that is crazy#she is such a bitch i cannot believe it#when asked about it she just laughed in our faces and said it didnt fit.. it was custom made and she was the one who sent the measurements#and all of the other cousins wore matching ones in different clothes#she just thinks shes better than us.. bc she managed to go to the us and now has a fake american accent also#i dont get this inferiority complex our people have. it is ridiculous.#i told everyone we should we should ask for the clothes back since she clearly doesnt want them but they said it was a gift so no#actually i think she just wanted to be 'modern' and our clothes were a traditional gharara#so she came with her legs out :/#tbh she looked bad anyways so . actually idgaf#she literally did not acknowledge me or my sister at all i think she considers us . i dont know like their maids that were brought along#its actually crazy like. she was acting like she was closer to the bride and groom than we were and we were just some randos#its basically my brother who is getting married and we havent spoken to this girl for years?? she was the reason my aunt came to the uk#bc she used to beat up my cousin (who got married) when he was little and my aunt didnt want to be around her and her mum didnt control her#imagine breaking the family up and being hated by the immediate relatives of the groom and acting like you are the vip guest..#havent told my cousin how she acted with us yet bc partially its like whats the point shes nobody#but i feel like his wife thinks shes super nice bc of course she was sucking up to her#i dont want to be a bad sister in law and cause problems so i'll just keep it to myself#not like anyone will talk to her again so what does it matter#it was nice seeing our side of the family though#especially one of my great aunties who accoring to my sister i was 'glazing' lmaoo#maybe its bc they know i am my mothers daughter and the other side dont?#i feel like its still unacceptable behavoiur though. just rude for no reason you could at least say hello

the way i read the doctor's and the tardis' relationship is that it's impossible to describe outside of the tenets of queer theory obviously, but specifically functions to me (shockingly) within a paradigm of aroace concepts that shift slightly -- but not as much as other relationships the doctor has -- with each regeneration, and considering the tardis is a space-and-time-ship and the doctor is a being that changes their face upon near-death, yes it's alien, but it's also in highly familiar/human as a symbolic structure and as a deconstruction of what relationships are traditionally deemed worthwhile, by being incredibly difficult to describe, other than that it's the most long-lasting and important relationship in either of their existences
to try and begin to describe perhaps, the tardis is home and freedom and escape and travel companion and co-driver and machine and history and change and mystery and exploration and curiosity/joy at the universe and safe haven and nigh-unknowable godlike being that has chosen the doctor
the doctor is likewise these things, except for the last -- the doctor is knowable, the tardis knows this person (they know each other, but i think the tardis has the edge because the doctor acts in ways when alone in the tardis that nobody else would see, not to the same extent), and for all that the doctor is that long-lived and grapples with whatever is close to immortality but not quite, they're not so godlike in the end
where would the tardis go without the doctor, where would the doctor go without the tardis? whatever they are, is the story for me
#the tardis#dw#doctor who#deliberately didn't use community terms outside of aroace for this one#and very deliberately didnt use the word love either because i dont think it applies -- it's just not it for this#i really do want to find some better words to describe this i really struggle to and i want to write something from the tardis' pov#i think for all that the doctor's wife is called the doctor's wife -- reductive stupid heteroamatocisnormative monogamous nonsense#and that the tardis is represented through attractive woman and it starts with the kissing -- see above description#the conversation they have at the end of the episode#and the tardis pulling on a lever just to make the doctor smile#that was ooooh that was good#i just wanted to say hello#ofc this was a very important moment but also the doctor and the tardis have this beautiful way of communicating that is#on the tardis' part non-verbal (non-traditionally-verbal?) and that is interesting too#(that is the tardis hums and has alarms and the like but it's a very overall complex language of cues and travel destinations and systems)#anyway sooo relieved that the tardis in the doctor's wife didn't say i love you or the doctor to the tardis#so much bigger on the inside and hello were very very good

its crazy how espresso by sabrina carpenter is THE emmajacob song

#emmajacob#jacobemma#?#the quarry#og#i know they literally broke up but its fun to imagine life before and if they didnt break up because they're both such complex people that#writing that out for me would be like a character study for the both of them in their unique situation. a pairing that never shouldve been#a thing. a relationship that couldve been more if things were different. in a game of choices and specifically in the quarry where theres a#lot of depth to certain dynamics its really fun to play out different scenarios in my head of what could've been and emmajacob have a#particular flavor because its a fresh take on a new trope and the nuggets of character we got about them and how they mush together is SOO#interesting and in my opinion unique. for me my fandom of characters is really about what relationships people have and how they play into#each other and emmajacob got some spice is all im saying#emma mountebank#jacob custos#i feel like emma fans might not like talking about x jacob while with jacob fans thats a big part of his thing and that itself is a good#example of the flavor of their setup#Spotify

i started all of these games at wildly different times, took varying levels of breaks partway through each of them, and then finished all of their achievements in the same two days
i don't know what to do with myself now
#buenos dias short people#tunic was like. i played to maybe halfway. took a months long break#when i picked it back up i didnt remember what i was doing so i started a new file and played like a third#months long break. but this time i resumed the second file and played through to the end#the game is very cryptic but starting over gave me a handle on the mechanics and what was important#outer wilds took like four tries even though i knew it would be good i just wasnt hooked#the game is about knowledge even more than tunic like knowledge is the whole deal and it comes slowly at first#but when it hit it really hit. god damn#please play outer wilds#spyro? um. it was good#i don't know that i took any big breaks from it? there were some but a couple weeks at most#spyro levels are not particularly complex. or content rich. and i really felt that 60 hours#playing the whole trilogy all back to back can really burn you out#its a collectathon you're bound to spend a good while just wandering around to find that one last thing you missed#and i didn't know i could left stick for sparx to point out the nearest gems until like halfway through 2 so that was a time waster#im not saying it wasn't a good game but spyros moveset is like. glide fire charge and you do this for three games#until they throw in random nonspyro playable characters in 3 and they all control really bad and weird. but its still mostly spyro#i could have taken big breaks between each game and it would've been better probably but its a collection im gonna roll to the next one

Really funny this white dude in my speech class group i remember he kept making eye contact with me and i was like does he like me um and turns out he did that with everybody white people weird
#cherry says#anyways fun inside GOD THAT SEMESTER WAS STICKY my mom could not take unemployment well#me i got used to the cycle of looking for jobs getting nothing then stop looking bc my mom said dont worry about it ill pay the bills#i did that over and over and with film jobs id just look at texas film commission sometimes just to look#but i myself got used to the job hunting so i felt zoned out from it yet#that area felt as much a daydream as my wanting to go make a movie i didnt think i wanted to tell myself that#especially because i still was doing acting looking for acting#but yeah there was times my mom would make violent fits she would wonder what was happening#i think those times revealed a lot of the weird complexity of our relationship after high school#i didnt pity her but i did feel like i owed her something i believed so many things she told me#i feel like she wanted me to see her work as a sacrifice so i must do this and that but it was way deeper#parental love became a fucking duty to show it that was just it i did what she said#to at the same time comfort myself when i had no job and maybe even to comfort myself for being scared#i think tbh i need to face that past action that i was scared i was scared of reality even if it was a reality she talked of#i was scared of growing up and didnt wanna think about it i was scared of the future in 2 months when class ended#so maybe my mom with no job suddenly presented the risks we were all taking#maybe it made me more scared of what was to be on the outside#somebody who put fear in my head who said dont worry u study i work and that was gone#perhaps i shouldve taken that opportunity to realize NOTHING LASTS.#YOUR MOTHER WHO ALWAYS MADE IT SOUND LIKE THE WORLD WAS CONTROLLED AND PREDICTED BY HER IS AS VULNERABLE AS YOU NOTHING LASTS#but i didnt i instead became the punching bag again the quiet good girl and kept on thats a lot to swallow even more

Im sorry but how did you get this from the finale 😭 would you have preferred if simon killed himself on screen
#text#like what the fuck are you talking about#for the amount of people i see saying f&c finale dumbed down the complexities of simons character#the idea he cant possible have been selfish with betty but selfless with f&c is like insane#simon is incredibly self sacrificing. lol. he also didnt ever question bettys choices and if there were things that would make her happier#also actually betty and simon r bith self sacrificing and selfish in their own ways like idk#like im not gonna get into it its 8am but like... dude...#not even gonna get into the last section..!

@dandelionsheep
so tired of this bullshittery
#didnt expect to find another dsaf fan in the notes but when were at it yeah.#literally one of the reasons for why i only talk dsaf with my 3 dsaf-knowing irl friends and like. 2 handpicked online people#i dont trust anyone else in this place. for other reasons but this one too#its made worse by the fact that there are like...max 5 canonically stated or implied features for each character yet most people cant even#follow those few pointers. like. come on man. there are like 3 characteristics on average per character. 3.#its not hard. yet everyone seems to bend over backwards to deviate from the source as much as possible#yes i do have a weird superiority complex about this. like booo your designs are ironed and polished like the sleekest product; your#depictions are declawed and defanged and you arent rotating a rotisserie chicken at all youre rotating a fucking tofu#like. im not saying that everyone in the fandom does this but...a LOTS of people do#btw if you're seeing this reblog twice it's because I'm stupid and deleted the previous one because i played 4d chess with myself#and decided that i was stupid as all hell for assuming dsaf even though fnaf will also goes by dave for a portion of time#after which i convinced myself that the chances of prev being a regular fnaf fan who just so happens to sometimes call will dave#are much higher than the chances of them being a dsaf fan who is used to calling dsaf will dave#because idk.

Sometimes i like to take advantage of my parents paying for imo way too many subscriptions. Most of the time it's so i can watch Silo
#apple did One thing i can approve of sadly#it's been too long since ive read the book to build an accurate comparison/critique#but the first season/book are incredibly well done narratively#it explores a lot about societies information and control incl. propaganda(?)#definitely my first thought when people mention complex characters and especially complex women#discussions of class a Lot but id say more blatantly in the first part#oh yeah old lesbians!! which is great bc everytime they were on screen i was like 'are they..?👀' and they WERE#they did get separated straight after but this is a political ish drama there's no romance#if i remember correctly the only couples are either long married or one of them dies 👍#actually incredible that i didnt connect that to why i enjoyed it also#but anyways! i do highly reccommend it#ent talks#season 2 got out recentlyish so im watching it with my parents
