everyone talks about the paywall with cc creators being shit. But I kinda find the building a house or a sim then getting people to pay to download that kinda weird?? Like I don’t know if I’m being an asshole or not but idk I can’t think properly , it just feels weird people have to buy the packs then pay even more just to buy someone’s build / sim is just weird
100% weird and gross and those people should be shamed. I'm sorry but you want me to pay for the way you placed an item I've already bought? Get the fuck out of here. I know these people exist but my sincere hope is that people aren't gullible enough to pay for BUILDS, especially builds that host other people's cc. Cc that you have to pay for in some wired paywalling pyramid scheme

Listen, you should never film strangers in public without their consent, but I swear there need to be fines or something for people who do that shit in some spaces. For example: I had to go to the ER last night, and some jerk filmed a woman who just came in and was clearly having an asthma attack. She immediately got to go back, and he was unhappy about that. Believe me, I get that it sucks having to wait when you're in pain, but you don't get to pick who deserves care when. The medical system in the US is a nightmare, and the ER could be the worst moment of someone's life. No one deserves to be recorded because some jack ass believes someone doesn't look like they need care.
This is fine to reblog. People who film strangers should be shamed if nothing else.

shapeshifting is something that a basilisk will nearly always seek to do in solitude.
an act which temporarily blinds and numbs the creature from the surrounding world - they will be left completely vulnerable to it. defenseless. frozen inside the shell of their old form as organs and cells rearrange.
to shapeshift in front of someone is, therefore, the ultimate show of trust that a basilisk can perform.

ONCE UPON A TIME, THERE WAS A KNIGHT...
the visual inspiration for this was a combination of Frederic William Burton's Meeting on the Turret Stairs and also Bernardo Cavallino's The vision of St. Dominic receiving the Rosary from the Virgin
this was supposed to be just a one off illustration to get the thoughts out of my system, but then I started thinking about medieval politics and warfare and plagues and a castle and home as both a place of refuge, a prison, and a tomb, so perhaps they will end up as ex voto characters as well.
you may say, hey! that rosary looks like it has too many beads! it's a fifteen decade rosary, probably. dominicans are really into marian devotions. it works out.
also. spiral style stair cases. oh boy. it was that unexpectedly more difficult than I originally thought it would be to draw. the more I think about it, the less I understand them, even though I had a million photos of the stairs in front of me while I was drawing it.
⭐ I have a tip jar (ko-fi)!
