this is the funniest outcome ever

[Image description: digital art of Bill Cipher, tangled up in electrical wires. He has a nervous expression, as he holds up a ripped wire and says: "Oops!" There's a glitchy effect behind him. End ID.]

Why would you—That's not—I just wanted to ask for help, why did you have to go and make it awkward???

[First] Prev <–-> Next

#poorly drawn mdzs #mdzs #wei wuxian #xue yang #Its such a relief to not have to draw so many characters once again.#Redrawing the specific font from the English translated mdzs books was surprisingly fun!#Maybe I'm alone in this...but I think characters switching to a different font of speech for *emphasis* is peak comedy #you can't communicate voice changes of sound very well in non audio forms so this is the best I can do.#Anyways...rip Xue Yang. You finally meet your idol and he brushes you off #Rather— he doesn't live up to the expectations you built in your head #Kind of an on going issue there Jester (I refuse to call him king or sir)#XY is constantly making people out to be the versions he needed them to be to feel justified in his actions #but struggles to pivot when confronted with the fact that these ppl are *more* than just one surface reading!#wwx doesn't actually think xy is flirting. He's just tired of all the fake fans + wants to get out of this convo.#button mashing the A button to skip the unskippable cutscene #Lan Wangji is in the next comic btw. I've missed him dearly. I'm sorry he's been gone so long </3 #edit: poorly spelt MDZS strikes again. This is why I need more time to write my comics. So I can actually proofread B*(#edit2: I cast 'Power of Technology' and fixed my error. Everyone reblog this version instead please

it’s giving Jake MAMMMM vibes

So I've just reinstalled Space Cadet Pinball. Which button launches the ball? Why is there a tilt button? Why would I want to press a button to lock me out of the controls. Bullshit. Also why is the board so bullshit why does it always send my ball down the center? Also why can't I stop playing it? It's been like three hours?

I’m tempted to start making American Psycho video essays because at this point the YouTube selection for our fandom is limited to one of the following:

1) American Psycho Ending (Explained Like I’m 5)

2) IS PATRICK BATEMAN A PSYCHOPATH OR A NARCISSIST? — TikTok Psychologist Weighs In

3) How to Dress Like Patrick Bateman as a High School Freshman

4) Patrick Bateman sigma phonk edits compilation (i’m literally him) 🐺🥶🗿🔥

#american psycho #there’s just so many interesting themes throughout the book and the film and it’s redundant to reduce it to the same tired old topics #also no patrick is NOT A FUCKINF SiGmA mALe #and you are not literally him #go do your homework #anyway idk #i need to learn how to edit #or we could work together…#hmmm #patrick bateman #american psycho memes #bret easton ellis #mary harron #patrick bateman x paul allen #christian bale

thinking of rereading the entirety of HoME again. for my health

#‘for my health’ says the woman who has been struggling so much she’s barely read a book in the last half year lmao #silmarillion #(eh close enough)#tolkien #personal #also because I got so viscerally appalled when someone the other day tried to claim that ‘the second age has a lot less written about it tha #n the first age’ like I beG YOUR PARDON LMAO WHOMST #clearly someone hasn’t read unfinished tales 🙂‍↔️ clearly someone hasn’t read the entirety of HoME 🙂‍↔️#and like obviously idc idc I’m not a completionist truther read as much or as little of a fandom as you want enjoy what you want etc.#but when I went ‘oh there’s actually a lot in unfinished tales and in the home! it’s rly fascinating and fun and some of my favorites have y #ou had a chance to check it out ever?’ this person rly had the audacity to say they’ve ’read some of the unfinished tales’ like hm. somethin #tells me I don’t believe you lmao #I have never once in my life heard someone call. unfinished tales. the book. titled unfinished tales. ‘the unfinished tales’ like lmao what #anyways. it’s okay to admit you haven’t read something babe I was actually gonna recommend a few parts of that book and HoME you might enjoy #but 💋 okay then 💋#also normally I’d give ppl the benefit of the doubt but this person is Like This TM a lot and always has to outdo others & im over it lmao #but also also anyways. I am not immune to the HoME rereleased editions with that gorgeous artwork they are calling me and I am weak to #resist their siren song 😭😂 they’re so beautiful but each set of like 3-4 books (some have 3 some have 4 and the last one also has an index)#are like. over $100 each lmao ripppp.#I do own a few of the HoME but I don’t own all of them and. aaaaaa I need a complete reread #13 yo me 🤝🏻 late 20s yo me : going ‘hmm life is crazy maybe I need to immerse myself in the obscurent most dense Tolkien lore I possibly can #and yknow what. we’re so right. we’re so right #the history of middle earth #unfinished tales #and that conversation. as weird and posturing as that person was being. did get me reminiscing about my HoME obsessed days and I was like aw #I should revisit that :)#sometime self care is rereading 12 volumes of obscure lore about a fictional world with no one to talk with it about #anyways home my beloved. unfinished tales my beloved. love those books #obviously OBVIOUSLY I love the silmarillion and LOTR and the hobbit and beren and luthien etc etc ad infinitum as well! ofc! I just. I love #all of them ♡ hehe ♡

did. did any of you know summarising the formation of neoplatonism while stressing the endurance of middle platonism is. hard to do in under 500 words

#i knew this would be the hole i would fall down i am not surprised but god i know its only whats important/relevant but its all important #i have a draft i just am in eternal agony that i can't actually comprehensively address the issue of christian platonism in 12k #capstone #looking at the word 'scope' like it killed my dog #must your scope be manageable #what if i just did this foreverssssssssssssss #i am in hell i hate editing i die each time of what if one more book #no i dont need to develop my point that the mediterreanean was difficult to tranverse into a digression on travel between carthage and rome #but I want it so bad

I just looked at the price on the back of a book I’ve had for a bit over a decade and it was four. fucking. dollars. Just four with no taxes. No extra 97cents or something before taxes. Just a round number that you would add taxes to.

I googled the price of a new edition and it was almost thirteen! Not an even thirteen, it was like 12.96 or something. Close enough that it’s basically thirteen but if you’re adding multiple items together to try and get the price on a purchase with more items it would add more confusion.

#emma posts #it was also a bit difficult to find a new copy on my phone #the edition I have was selling for wildly varying prices as a vintage book now #but that’s just a kids chapter book from a fairly large publisher #I know inflation happens and stuff but holy shit #buying things at the book fair makes so much more sense now #I bought that for 4$ plus taxes at the schoolastic book fair #it was maybe 12 years ago?#I could look at the publishing date for a better idea #the series had just switched publishers and the first few were being re-released at the time #before the new publisher and the author finished the series #four dollars though #I had to check the book because I know the current price of many paperbacks and I knew that series was still in print #but what lead to this was the price tag falling off an old brush I found from like. 2009 or 2010 #and the tag on this very large brush was seven dollars #which seemed cheap so I looked at current brush prices online but since the exact same brush isn’t being sold and brush prices vary more #it was a bit harder for me to get an idea of it. books though. books I know #I’ve even bought stuff from that publisher recently (they have a lot of novel and comic translations)#but it also struck me how the old price tag was an even four and an even seven dollars but all new ones had 97 or 98 cents #that ten dollars from helping out grandma wouldn’t have even gotten me one book with modern prices #but back then I could get TWO #even just seven could have gotten me a book and some fun school supplies back then #to have that experience now you would need to give your kid a 20$#I understand inflation okay? I am just taken off guard rn and having realizations #I’m going to add to this post again. when I say wildly varied vintage prices I mean WILDLY varied #one dude was trying to sell it on Amazon for 55$ but on eBay it was 4 to 5$#I bought the next three books in the series from that same print. signed. for 13$ together #I had older editions of those and wanted a full series of just the ones that were being re-released during my reading time

Never want to read another gay historical romance set in a world war because Ninety One Whiskey left me in absolute shambles and I don't know whether I'm afraid the experience won't ever be replicated or that it will.

#every so often you come across an author that make you go 'this is FANFICTION?? this is fucking DESTIEL FANFICTION??#what the FUCK do you mean you're TWENTY THREE????' and then you have to put your head between your knees and never recover #anyway it's 400k words and I have been emotionally unsound for the last four years #still don't know how to handle her So Says The Sword #'there's a masterpiece of english literature on ao3 but you might need to watch one of the worst tv shows ever created to understand it'#EDIT: SHE CAME BACK LAST MONTH AFTER 6 YEARS TO WRITE ANOTHER N-OW ONE SHOT FOR RALLY FOR PALESTINE!!#gay romance #gay historical romance #book recommendations #book recs #fic recs #fanfiction #knee of huss #komodobits

Okay I’m sure this is gonna get screenshotted at some point, but if you mean to tell me your all-powerful “God” is letting all this racism, colonialism, war, famine, pollution, xenophobia, transphobia happen “for a reason” I’m going to explode. I’m automatically gonna discredit your reputation for talking about & knowing about a piece of media especially when you emphasize how you’re a “Christian” so there’s “one objective truth” and anyone else who says otherwise is “wrong.” Never thought I’d hear some shit like that (the second part, the first part I heard in a church long ago) in a reacting to Homestuck video, but here we are.

#don’t name names if you know who I’m talking about #please just don’t I don’t need that drama #this is a vague post even if it’s oddly specific #that being said if the homestuck youtuber reaches out and I’m misremembering then hey that’s my bad I’ll edit this post sure okay #but jfc does that rub me the wrong way when a Christian goes on and on about how Christian they are like- mmmm that’s uncomfortable #the first part didn’t happen in the YouTube video I was watching JUST TO BE CLEAR #The first part DID NOT GET SAID IN THE VIDEO #I’m just saying some shit there I heard in church as an ex-Christian that pisses me off #gotta love when a Christian tells you that ‘you’d be wrong’ hey I’m not the one worshipping a book about a guy who got white washed by #the colonial state that’s on y’all #if you know you know if you don’t I’m not telling as I don’t want anyone from my community dogpilng anyone thanks leave me out of your shit #mine #op

August: Day 25

Adventures

Spent way too long at the library

Checked out a book that was so old and hadn't been checked out for so long that it was no longer in the library's computer system

Enjoyed an hour of silence at home resting in the peace of the wind outside and the sunlight and shadows of trees flickering on the floor

Read poetry under a tree in the sunset

Writing

Read part of Ruta Sepetys' book on writing

Wrestled with the desire to write a personal, meaningful novel while having no idea what project could fill that need

#adventures in writing #the old book was a lovely old volume of james whitcomb riley's poetry #i loved 'when the frost is on the punkin' in middle school and paging through the book i thought it was perfect for august #i have no idea when the library obtained it #but the copyright page said nothing but 'copyright 1892 by james w riley'#the self-checkout didn't recognize it #and the librarian explained that books will fall out of the system if they're un-checked-out for long enough #which filled me with a secret delight #i was rescuing the poor lonely unloved old book #giving a senior citizen a new chance at life #reading it in the sunset makes me wonder if i could ask the library to sell it to me #they clearly don't need it #and it's such a lovely volume #there's something about reading such an old edition of the book that puts the poems in their proper environment #you can feel the world he was writing about because you're holding a piece of it in your hands #and i just like his poetry #it's sensible poetry if there can be such a thing #not making grand metaphors about nature and the deeper human condition #but just 'there was sunlight on the crick. and a tree. and some butterflies. it was nice.'#plus the country perspective and working-class characters #it's down to earth and homespun and simple and grounded and in love with all the common things of life #and so much of the landscape is so familiar so there's the extra sense of connection #sure some of it gets a bit trite but it's so unpretentious that you can't mind the occasional misstep #and occasionally there's one where the impeccable sense of rhythm he showed in the first poem i loved sneaks up on me and sweeps me away #anyway it was nice it was a good day god is good
