like why did they change where Vegeta was when Cell announced the cell games in the anime
why did they make this vegeta starting shit with yamcha instead of chillin in the lab with his family? why did they take Bulma out of the lab? Why'd they say she was Out while Dr Brief was repairing 16? Why did they change Bulma working on advanced robotics to running in late with her baby?
it's the same scene except: - Bulma's actively at work being a scientist - Vegeta's not being rude to her (or anyone else!) - Vegeta waits for Trunks instead of leaving the room - Cell interrupted the airwaves, which means Trunks and Vegeta were just hanging out with Bulma and Dr B while they were working
Those are all Great Character Details!! That the anime rails against!!
#these cowards afraid of showing Vegeta actively choosing to be around his wife and child even when he's Bad#Because Goku who is Good never ever even once makes that choice onscreen outside of filler#and then they justify that choice by making Chi-Chi seem horrid and unreasonable for (checks notes) Not Wanting Her Child to Die#anyway I am once again being bitter about anime vs manga klasjdklasd#I can't believe I let the anime convince me I hated Goku man Goku's SUCH a good and ridiculous character in the manga#the anime just SUCKS at letting him be who he's always been#and has to reframe and recontextualize and reword everything he does so that it seems like he's Actually Quite Mature and Thoughtful nO#THAT's VEGETA YOU COWARDS#also the fact that bulma said she wouldn't live with him at the beginning of this arc to him casually hanging out with her and trunks#after cell beat his ass and humbled him is REALLY GOOD SUBTEXT for their shared relationship having improved without showing it#it's great subtext for all three of them and toei just went 'nah' and decided to make it a whole group shot so ...? Master Roshi could sit#and explain how ??? Tournaments Work??? Just so Cell could log on and also explain how tournaments work?? God it's been so long#since I've watched the anime and now when I do it just makes me mad aklsdjskja the manga is SOOOOO much better#there are some spots where the pacing is more ideal in the anime like goku turning ssj for the first time but like man. everything else is.#like why are you making Goku snarky with Vegeta dude his clapbacks are SO much funnier when they're just Tactless Honesty#like Vegeta's not insulted by Snark bitch he grew up in the Freeza force that man was raised by THE bitchiest drag queens#Vegeta's insulted by someone saying something deeply and insultingly True to his face as if it's the fucking weather#Goku in the anime is like 'a battle of wits hoho' but Goku's purity is part of the joke he's not snippy he's just got no social etiquette#He's just honest! He's not trying to be insulting. That's what MAKES it insulting! That's the WHOLE GAG of why Vegeta can't stand him#Goku is always just telling the truth and it's always the rudest shit Vegeta's ever heard in his life#'it's a sunny day! i'm way stronger than you! see you out there bud!' 10000% Genuinely Friendly. Golden Retriever-Ass Pure.#Infuriating. Hilarious.#anyway I looked at anime clips to make sure I remembered things right and that was a mistake#as someone who has a soft spot for it and grew up on it -- compared to the manga it's bad and it's always been bad#and toriyama was right to be disinterested in watching it jesus christ they BUTCHERED his work#anyway this has been another shot of haterade with sketches thank you for scrolling my rambletags askljdask#dbtag#i just truly can't get over how they make Vegeta call her 'woman' in the anime and he literally only ever calls her Bulma in the manga#except for on namek when he refers to her as 'the/that woman' because she is a complete stranger#why is he calling her woman like he's a 1940s american husband and not an extraterrestrial from a deeply advanced society toei

the order doesn't matter that much also the "not for me" tier can range from "man idgaf" to "WHAT THE FUCK"
#there needs to be a term for something tangential to shipping but not quite shipping because that's how i feel about reiramu honestly#like just. the concept of rei being haunted by his wife through his own work with which he dared to defy the limits of humanity#but it's fine right? they're just shallow copies. they share her face but they're hollow. they're just puppets.#they don't have feelings of their own. when a clone is disposed by chuohku it's the equivalent of killing a fly#but there's this one clone. he's a defect.#oh well you can always just improve on the next line of clones#but he can feel things the others can't. he has a personality. it's not quite like hers but they share a lot of the same values#he's *not* her. the face is the same but the smile isn't. the way he laughs isn't the same.#but he's rather fond of that jinguji jakurai is he not? you and that doctor share a lot of values as well.#but those two are close because of completely different reasons. surely.#and ramuda has gotten close to ichiro and saburo but he's not close to them in the way a mother would be.#but then again she never got to raise saburo herself did she? how would ramuda act if he befriended jiro?#fine. maybe he reminds you of her in some ways. but how does he think of you? a boss? a handler? a creator? he doesn't know who he came from#you look at him the same way you looked at nayuta but what if he looks at you the way ichiro does? that's a little....#man i've been rambling for a while. what im saying is that i think amayado rei should be tortured by his own creation every waking moment#but ramuda is just like :ppp#i'm not fucking maintagging this.#valiant posting

Some scribbles :) (Patreon)
#Doodles#Original#Texture work is original sure lol#Went in hard on one of those Drawing Advice posts about ''Hey - literally just put pencil to paper and go no worries''#It was fun :D I Do still want to just doodle freely sometimes!#I still enjoy some structure to it so I ended making a grid of various like map-style textures to tell different biomes apart lol#But just general funsies scribbles were pretty good! I enjoyed the lot :)#S'good to just Make with abandon sometimes haha#I really like the hatching effect generally and it's something I want to improve at/implement more so the practice was nice there :)#Layering on paper/with only the one digital layer is always an interesting exercise in negative space and keeping things readable#I like drawing clouds with notably flat bottoms haha I think it's funny that they just sit there#I guess I'm used to cirrus clouds a lot so seeing cumulus big puffies with a clear delineation between bottom and the rest is just fun to me#They look like toys! Designed to sit! But they're just up there! How fun!#Squiggly branches/veins was something I did a tooon as a kid before I got into Drawing On Purpose y'know#Just pages and pages of branches on branches#And curls that curled away from each other - did a little bit of that with the circles and lines but not that much haha#I dunno if I still have any but it's interesting how that dwindled down to basically never over time#I definitely know what I prefer to draw these days but hmm still wonder a bit!#And loop-di-loops haha I was thinking of Erase quite a lot for that one honestly#And the way some Disney Princesses give autographs which one is it-#Belle! I remember when I got her autograph years ago and was really enamoured with the flourish :D#Grace and elegance in shape! Ah! So cool#That and RGB from TPoH haha - all these swoopies! I like them very much :)

n*loth is literally a demon i mean iHold on YAAASSSSS!
i mean it 😒😒😒
#text#nlvs very universal love story i believe from n*loth POV it can be read as a normal romance if you ignore all the concerning shit he's -#- thinking. but from t*lvas POV and 3rd person it's an actual horror story (deserve)#but tbh not even t*lvas is as scared as the 3rd party witnessing all of it happen . if there was a 3rd parttyyy. omg. so sad#anyways enough about them..... i wanted to talk about drawing ✍#i think traditional art has a lot of power to kick you to improving especially if you're trying it for the first time after a really long -#- while (Meee) and it doesn't feel as 'consumeristic' as digital art feels to me#cus anytime i sit down to draw something digitally 9 times outta 10 i'll just be trying to out-do myself in the way i execute an idea#in terms of colors or composition or anything i can do#such a tryharddd iUUugh but in traditional i turn my brain off and live the same life and share a brain with my pencil. and nothing feels -#- boring. or like 'i already drew this 😑' i'll just be chilling#but @ the same time it might stunt me because of it's comfortability#i mean idc but still i can get better in many ways && i want tu ......#to Be honest it feels like i can only do 'Cool' ideas digitally and traditional is for stuff that is 'easier'#but it is indeed freeing#i love u-god bbbbbbbbb#i mean not like i do art studies a lot cus i don't think it's something i need at this very moment i'm happy with where my art is#but @ heart i will always! Always be a tryhard#like look at what i can doo (speaking to mirror)#my nelothian narcissism ......? Huh#i love adding -ian to pairings and names now

breakups are so fucking weird. three years and just like that it's gone. huh
#helix.txt#gross i ended up spilling my guts in tags. look at them fucking writhing on the floor all bloody#dont rb please#vent#to quote fall out boy i knew it was over i just didn't know the date#yeah that's it. fall out boy can fix this.#i will feel better if i go listen to bang the doldrums#and infinity on high in general#and folie a deux. folie a fucking deux how i love that album#my chem will make me better. gerard way save me#god what a weird feeling. you used to know me better than any other person but then you moved hundreds of miles away and it worked#for a while. then two years later you said it wasnt working and that this was best for both of us. guess i never got the memo for that one#hope we treat other people better because i wasn't as kind as i should have been towards the end and you were never as thoughtful or con-#-siderate as i needed towards the end. we grew apart because you're bad at keeping contact over messaging#and in some ways the cracks in the foundation that grew from that were my fault too i guess. our conversations always felt one sided#maybe i was smothering you#you could never seem to keep more than a passing recollection of the things i liked or even pay much attention to them#but i wasn't great about that either#we just became different people. you weren't what i wanted or needed and you couldn't do long distance. whatever#i know it was the right thing i just wish it hadn't made me feel so damn awful#will we still talk after this? who knows. we didn't end on bad terms but things are definitely weird#and considering your track record with people you can only talk to online i'm not optimistic#you tried to break things off initially by saying you'd said you would improve in the past with nothing to show for it#something i didn't disagree with but i said it didn't bother me much. and it didn't#but it's complicated now. i did deserve better. but you made it clear i'm not getting it from you#you weren't as present or thoughtful as i needed#i wasn't there in person the way you needed and certainly not as considerate as i should have been. and for that second part i'm truly sorr#anyways. sorry. i'd been thinking about it for a long time anyway. i didn't want to admit it because i didn't like to think#about what it might bring. maybe i should have been braver#right. that's enough

Day 11 of 30: I haven't updated in a few days, but that doesn't mean I haven't still been on track! I have exceeded the 1666 daily word goal every single day this week, and today was no exception: today, I wrote 3559 words (wowie zowie) and my total word count for the month is now 23,873.
Y'all, that is NUTS. I'm almost halfway there. I've never in my life gotten this far during NaNoWriMo, and even if I don't make it to 50k words by the end of this, I'm still so insanely proud of myself you guys have no idea
#i really do think I've improved as an author because of this too. normally I'm way too quick to go into editing mode#but completing this challenge is requiring me to NOT go there which is HUGE#like learning to be happy that i got words on the page even tho they're not good? that’s monumental.#i always lose momentum when i'm writing because i get discouraged that the words aren’t coming out right and then i just stop writing#but this month i'm like ''that's not the word i'm looking for. oh well i don't have time for this i gotta just keep writing''#and i know this is the most basic writing tip but for once i'm actually forcing myself to follow it#(but also not to brag or nothin but the stuff i wrote today? *chef's kiss* this was some good writing)

me everytime I am preparing a meal with multiple elements I have to balance so they all finish cooking at the same time: Wow this is just like the 2009 hit Nintendo Wii game 'Food Network: Cook Or Be Cooked'
#or like if I'm making two things and one finishes cooking before the other and has to sit there and get cold#in my brain it's always like 'tsk tsk.. they would deduct points from my score for that' hjhjb#one of those instances of game mechanics imprinting onto your brain. kind of like imagining sims interaction moodlets in irl conversations#i LOVE the game though it's so fun. I've never even heard of it before I just found it by the dumpster in a box of other old wii#games someone was apparently discarding and picked it up due to my interest in cooking shows and stuff#I like having to time things and all the little actions you can do. though sad that there's so little recipes#you can unlock the whole game in like a day or something. I think if I had more time and social energy to actually talk in forums or be par#of a 'community' - I think looking into the type of stuff where people mod wii games and etc. would be very very cool#Wii is my favorite console and so much of the time I am always like 'grrr.. they dont make new games.. and this one game is very cool#but imagine if these 5 improvments were made to it! it would be SO much cooler!' etc.#Like being able to download new custom recipes/levels for Cook or Be Cooked lol#Modding wii sports resort the same way that some people mod skyrim and build entirely new games out of it#with new quests and etc. Like just.. create your own sports.. RPG mode.. use the already existing archery assets and etc. to have a mode#where you can just free roam around the map shooting at enemies and stuff ghhjbjh#WHICH I WOULD LOVE DEARLY..#I dont realyl like combat in games but idk I'd make an exception.. whatever.. I just want to play more in the Wii World#I have the soul of one of those people who builds all their own computers and 3D prints custom frames to transplant their 3DS into and#has like all special 'hacked' phones and wii mods and customizes everything and etc. etc. like.. 100% my exact personality and preferences#HOWEVER I just simply do not have the money or physical energy/time to get onto projects like that#The best I can hope for is one day having a close friend who does that so I can maybe use their 3D printer every once in a while or we both#collaborate on some wii modding project or etc. but I just couldn't on my own.. I already have too much stuff going on.. Have to make#compromises due to lack of money + low energy + busy. Like I could never build my own phone. I could save up for a teracube phone#or something so it's better and more repairable than all these dumbass modern phones you cant even take the backs off of. but that's probab#y the best I could do lol. ANYWAY.. Especially wii customization. I could get really into that.. I saw a picture one time of someone who#made like a semi transparent case for theirs kind of like the famous purplish see through gameboy color case but for a wii.. which is.. aAA#yearning crying sobbing etc. etc. so on and so forth

I am Kind Of proud of it. this one goes out to you myhouse dot wad#(nobody dies whos alive in canon dw. you know me)#it's actually so funny looking back on the three fics Ive written for sk8 so far and like#SEE how much of a nerd I am. skating is always in the undercurrent of the world yes. but most of the screentime is about art#I am trying to fix that in this one lmao. I'm trying to Understand Sport. this is the funniest thing to say about fanwork for a sport anime#well. today did end up being about finishing the script for the funny haha speedpaint-adjacent video instead#so. tomorrow.

mistyped INFJs you're the scum of this community
#she was like “oh it's so hard to be a ni dom bc most people are se doms and they're so superficial 😭”#i told her poeple can relate well to others regardless of functions#that as we all use an intuitive and sensing function we all use it at some point#so she ALSO uses her inf se#and defended se doms bc i'm tired of the stereotype they're superficial#any rype can be superficial even ni doms :))))))#i've met se doms who were amazing people with lots of depth in their personality#she answered with “just look at the facts!!! look about se doms out there they're lazy bitches!!!”#Yeah as if the time ni doms spend “wondering” about “the meaning of life” didn't make them lazy as well#every type can be lazy#every type can be superficial#tired of these “Ni doms” claiming they're so special and deep#listen my mom is an (actual) INFJ#my father was an ISTP#she related very well with his auxiliary se#even if it was her inferior function#she always looked at it like a way to learn to use it#and to improve her weakness#I WILL DEFEND SE DOMS LIKE ANY OTHER TYPES 🔫🔫🔫🔫#all types have amazing people#and all types have shitty people#stereotyping just makes you stupid

The library I work at not only has digital services like Libby. We have DVDs and TV shows, CDs, video games, etc. We also have cake pans if you want to make a special cake for a birthday party. We have board games you can check out for game nights. We even have kits you can take home to try various crafts or activities. So if you want to give sewing a try but don’t want to jump right out and buy a sewing machine just in case you don’t like it. Boom, library has one you can check out. We have crochet kits, bullet journaling, sports kits like soccer, frisbee golf, basketball, etc. We’re even about to launch a divination kit, bird watching, and looking into a polymer clay kit. We have ukuleles and right now we’re looking into getting a keyboard or lap piano. We also check out puppets and occasionally rent out costumes (Santa, Harry Potter, Superheroes, etc).
And honestly, that’s just the start. Some even have tools you can check out so you don’t have to spend several hundred dollars for basic house work or car maintenance. We also do regular in house activities. Not just for kids. But adult nights, date nights, craft activities, and classes. Teen nights and crafts too!
Our library even has a drive-thru so you don’t have to get out of your car to pick things up!
#honestly libraries are great#and i'm not just saying that because i work at one#but we're even doing a summer reading raffle where you can win a kindle#like c'mon#we love our communities and do whatever we can to help everyone#and we always take suggestions seriously so if you feel like your library needs something#don't hesitate to bring it up or put it in a suggestion box#not everything can be done#for example our library is too small for the tool library#but we love getting kit suggestions and we try to order whatever we can for patrons#we actually just completely overhauled how we do summer reading because of one facebook suggestion#so libraries are always looking for ways to improve

Me, a lady, enjoying female characters in certain medias and considering it peak representation.
Me logging on in here to discover the discourse ppl have abt how sexualized those characters are and how the whole show is directed towards a male audience.
Me: :D
Well fuck me, maybe i like my female characters to be a lil freaky, perfect/imperfect/majorely flawed, given many Ls, alluring in a conventional/unconventional way? what if she shows a little skin and has this dumb crush towards this useless male or she is doomed by the narrative? leave me alone, you're not my mom >O<
#i do hate sexualization of female characters but i just don't think every revealing look /thirst trap has a dramatic effect on me#some gurls like to dress that way and some don't even do it for the guys in the show they just express themsleves that way y'know#i'm usually scared to look up my faves bcz ppl here always seem to have smth negative to say abt them and want improvement but like#can't female characters get a rest and not be held under certain expectations and just be flawed and like dumb useless blorbos? guys are lo#anyways that's my two cents bcz i'm kinda fed up with the “i know it's an awful female representation/sexualized/directed for males” and it#my fave show and like i'm picky y'know? but even my pickiest picks don't fit the cut so i just don't know what to tell you anymore#and the show could be with only girls with the main plot abt/for girls and that character could not even care abt guys and have their own#story and importance in the plot and everything but no let's put that duh well know universal standard on them that nobody explains actuall#idk dude#female representation#rant post#stop guiltripping my girls are no hoes and i'll protect them
