something for fun bc why not......i have free will their personality types?? maybe?? : seb = smug clora = peppy poppy = normal/sweet imelda = snooty ominis = lazy (or cranky tbh) leander = jock natty = sisterly
#when i was playing new horizons i bought SO MANY nook tickets on ebay bc i was desperately looking for julian..he was my bff on the 3ds one#i have his framed photo....but i never found him😔#im not 100% on the personalities especially cloras and poppys.... but what i do know is that natty is DEFS the sisterly vibe#and imelda is definitely snooty LOL. i almost put jock for her but they just talk about working out a lot and are too nice BAHAH#plus the personalities are gendered in AC so i tried to keep that the same#also i know poppy isnt mousey as a person/shes really brave and fearless but idk... she just gives me mouse vibes anyway🥹she smol#and natty was an easy choice bc i just copied her gazelle form...imelda was also super easy obvs LOL#for ominis i wasnt sure whether to do a cat (bc they nap a lot) or the chipmunk but i just think the chipmunk is cuter LMAO#and leander i almost did horse or anteater (for the long face) but the goat just suits him perfectly i think#omg wait anteater would be perfect for amit actually ....and garreth would be a lion#dont ask why seb is randomly the only one not in his uniform...

#raphael bg3#raphael#bg3#baldur's gate 3#idk i just like that they included/animated his nose scrunch... its very expressive.. makes me think of an angry dog#plus i like his nose. in general.#i'm normal okay i just pay attention to noses a lot bc i like drawing them#one of the main differences btwn raphy and haarlep is their nose actually. m!haarlep that is#m!haarlep has a really straight nose (lol) while archduchess!haarlep's nose is a lot more similar to raphael's#yeah the incubus' nose is definitely what most people focus on in that scene wym#anyway please enjoy these photos regardless of whether you are as normal about noses as i am#my screenshots#mine

ok there was a poll going around a while ago about whether you think your 5-year-old self would recognize you, and I'm curious:
#polls#poll#heavily encouraging people to elaborate in the tags lol i wanna hear everyones thoughts#i'll start: i'm genuinely not sure#was looking at old photos and... i look really different#there's a photo of me and my brother and one of our cousins and like#we're all in our 20s now and idk if any of us is recognizable lmao#i didnt see that cousin at all from like when he was 13ish to when he was 18ish and i don't think i would have recognized him#i think meeting current me without context would be REALLY uncanny valley for 16-year-old me but idk if he'd catch on#did i know what i looked like well enough to recognize myself?#ahgsdlkkdh if it was fall or winter he might guess just based on clothes. i still wear the same style of button up/sweater combo#it's very Me in a way that i would have instantly clocked. at least in a 'oh nice i'd wear that' way lol#and the fact that we'd be the Same Exact Height would also help#mannerisms and smile and hands and things are the same more than my face is. hence uncanny valley#there's a photo of my dad when he was like 19 where when i saw it i was like ?!??! because he looks like me#he's significantly taller and his face is different and it's just a still image but something about the way he's sitting in the picture#i do that. my posture looks like that.#i think it would feel like that#but the ways in which i look different are like... i'm not sure they're things 16-year-old me would be able to grasp as Possible for him#he knew he was trans but even so#i didn't quite look like i'd figured out how to be a person yet#would pinocchio recognize himself as a Real Boy?#there are a lot of details you can't picture beforehand#idk. but that's my ramble over#personal

dare I say this patch is better than the entire penacony arc, for me at least. idk, it feels less dialogue-heavy than penacony. the characters are still using more words than they need to, but not to the point where i question if their throat is getting dry. except aglaea, I think 😭 but i think that part was intentional lmao. all in all, definitely left an impression, but a foreboding one.
#hoyoverse#honkai star rail#hsr#like the dialogue didn't feel dragged out#idk if it was just me but it felt like there were just a bit more battles than previous patches#it's probably bc the tb mission took 7 hrs i didn't even notice hours were passing lmao#spent 16 tb fuel to farm trace mats for rmc i have no regrets#my moze watching me farm trace mats and relics for rmc while his relics are all shite: 😒😑#i was genuinely thinking herta wasn't gonna appear in the mission but when se did it felt so damn random 😭#also whew wanna know about ohainon's past so bad ughhhh#theory that march is the other half castorice mentioned purely bc she mentioned she liked to take photos#was thinking of doing the world missions to figure out the lore but then i remembered i have a lot of farming to do ☠️#i WILL clear apocalyptic shadow stage 5 with three stars trust#i feel like destruction is too obvious an answer for the third paths that reside in amphoreus#but also that could be what the writers WANT us to think#i think it has something to do with the black tide#tb lore was not on my bingo card but yk what hell yeah#also march lore#hyv just dangling the tb and march lore in front of me only to pull it back once i reach out for it#GIVE IT TO MEEEEE#i just realized no ruan mei next christmas smh#this is the price we pay#let's hope someone actually gets unalived in amphoreus i feel like the stakes weren't high enough in the previous patches#hyv don't be cowards!#mem is such cute thooo#i was giggling each time she spoke#it's inoue marina WGAT WAS I SUPPOSED TO DO!?#hsr 3.0 spoilers(?)

Sparkstember Day 25: Hippopotamus (What The Hell Is It This Time?)
My Hippopotamus rant is here. I love Hippo and I think this was one of the best examples of how putting something off for later can be a very good idea sometimes. So I didn't hear most of it until this summer, and hearing the whole album then was one of the biggest highlights of that time. Thank you modern era Sparks for always bringing us the awesomest music ever.
#hippopotamus my beloveddddddd. also i like this drawing a lot!!! :)#i actually managed to make the letters and fire look pretty close to what they're like in the music video so that's pretty epic#anyways my favs are still roughly the same. but lately i've been also really enjoying probably nothing. beautiful somg#and now it's tagent(s) time because i thought it would be fun to buy a hippo plushie for this day and pose it for a photo#but well i don't even have this album physically so idk what other cool way i could have done this in#and yeah i mostly wanted to get something hippo-themed anyway#because a while ago i had to pass up on very awesome socks with hippos on them because they didn't have the right size#and i'm still thinking about them sometimes (i'm the biggest fan of fun socks)#ALSO... my original original plan for hippo (and ecotd tbh)#was to wait with them until something epic and sparks-related was happening. like travelling to see them on tour#well that didn't happen as we all know so. moved on from that idea eventually#but the future is bright anyway because i love modern era sparks sm and i can actually look forward to new albums coming out soon-ish#from both of my biggest favs AND another band that i've been getting into lately so uhhhh if not 2024#then can please at least 2025 be the year of awesomeness and amazingness that i've been waiting for?!?!?#ok this isn't even about hippo anymore so i'll just finish now#sparkstember 2024#my art#goose monologues

made up a group of edwardian-era hockey girls, Heavily inspired by the many wintery late 19th/early 20th century photos i processed in an archive over the summer. at some point, i decided their team would be called "the hail raisers".
#it's all about texture texture texture#i'm very bad at modeling old handwriting. but just bc i've seen a lot of old handwriting doesn't mean i can replicate it :/#also- technically the vast Vast majority of any photos pre 1930 (that i worked with) were explicitly black and white#but we're gonna pretend this is some super faded autochrome!! which works bc i LOOOOVE autochrome <3<3<3#the things i'm most proud of here are 1) the gloves and 2) the personality shining through each girl#they're bruised and bloody and gap toothed and they're ready for more!#my art#artists on tumblr#edwardian era#edwardian art#hockey#also this is more for me but- gap toothed girl is clara#alma's the formal looking one (with a crooked nose). lenore's looking dazed and confused. and dolores at the bottom right is out for blood#(also i'm preemptively blaming any 'off' proportions on the fact that they're wearing bulky sorta-oversized winter clothes)#(also also- drawing old fashioned hair was fun. they kinda just did whatever as long as it's in a particular shape)#(also also also- i enjoyed drawing injuries. for better or worse i think of 'injuries' whenever i think 'hockey'.#now. would you photograph edwardian-era girls beat up to hell? idk. but check out the 1890s princeton students post-snowball fight photo!)

Baby boy brother birthday photos from last year that I just realized I never uploaded!
#cats#also hopefully it's not weird to still post photos of George (the brown cat) even after his death a little while ago. I just have so many#beautiful old pictures of him that I still love but just never had the time to sort through or upload (my cat photos folder on my#computer had like 450 pictures in it or something lol... SO many). I feel like it's kind of just honoring or appreciating him#and not actually strange or anything. like what am I supposed to do. delete them?? I want to share them still because he is beautiful and#perfect ! idk. aNYWAY. Also this is their 2022 birthday when they turned 14 years old. (even though I think when I posted#their 2021 bday I might have said they were 14 then too. I was off by a year lol). 2023 when they turned 15 I unfortunately#was feeling kind of sick at the time and didn't really have the energy to do the decorations like I usually do. So they just got a few#treats and stuff. But I didn't know that would be george's last birthday lol. :/#They also do not really know or care though. they're cats who cannot process it or know the concept of birthdays so. eh#I still have no idea how these got lost on the computer though. Like I had them fully edited ready to post but just sitting in a folder??#Since MARCH 2022 lol... ??? the folder was in another folder of pictures so maybe that's how I overlooked it#But it's my 'once every 4 months computer organizing and clean out time' so I was going tghrough looking for pictures#I could drafts posts out of or sort or etc.#They got lots more treats for this birthday because one of my friends actually game me a few gifts for them#elderly boys.!!!!#I used to write in the little caption/image description sections to talk about them all individually but at some point tumblr broke that#feature and for so long they never saved or weren't visible so I stopped doing them and just ramble a bunch in the tags instead#but I kind of miss them. Thinking about old posts of the cats where I commented on each photo individually too lol.. the good ole days

last minute pre-grandparent-visit room deep cleaning has revealed that within the drawer i tend to assume just has old, off generic birthday cards and theater/concert programs there are also many, many going away cards and letters and things from the last couple of times i moved away. i guess i always thought of it as such a lonely thing, and i talk a lot about how i don't think i made Real friends until recently, and not to get choked up on main or anything but i think maybe i was completely fucking wrong
#Real friends = deep friends and admittedly it's hard to have deep connections with ppl when you're like 10#and also hard to have deep connection with people when you don't understand yourself at all (bc how could you share it?)#but i was so profoundly loved.#and it's not like the bday cards and stuff aren't a part of that they're just so.. obligatory? whereas such cards from friends is. guhhh#like they missed me. maybe they still do at least a little bit. ahhhhhhh#like i was a shithead but i meant something to a lot of good people and so many of these aren't from just one person#they're a bunch of them coming together and bringing along inside jokes i only half remember and drawing my fucking ocs like GUYS.#GUYS I LOVE YOU GUYS. i may not remember all of you but you were like. goddd i think you made this bearable#and im so glad i saved these. i didn't know there were so many#speaking of which i also found THREE count em THREE decks of cards i know for a fact i have never used bc i have a favorite deck and it's#not those. what off the wall madness was i planning where i needed three non-matching decks of cards within sleep-reach at all times#anyway im reorganizing bc like 10% of that drawer was stuff i actually needed regularly (literally Just the knives) and it's a nightstand#so it should be like. stuff i frequently need like pens and junk. idk#like it's not as if i don't think about how my moving away hurt ppl like i've been abandoning ppl against my will my whole life#but i guess ive been thinking of it as some kind of responsibility or guilt thing? or painful in a me-centric way. they sent me off#with well wishes though they poured their hearts into these. they drew and printed photos and made little crafts bc they loved me#and that's what you do when someone you love has to go away. waughhhhgghhghbn

so this is probably my best digital painting yet!
reference image is from here (x) I have no rights to it and make no money from this.
#portrait#digital painting#this is very much the closest to photorealism i ever intend to go. not that it is that- i just don't usually get this close.#i did learn a lot!#i hope to use the stuff i learned to make more intentional choices in future#i found out that skin texture is incredibly hard to paint! all I could manage was making it look like she's wearing liquid foundation#i'm also really trying to get the hang of colours! even in this i had to adjust it so much after I'd finished to get it to look less flat#the neck was so hard :( i think it still looks a bit odd#also in the photo shes wearing this beautiful Nigerian dress. but i was so tired at his point it was day 2 of painting for hours#so i gave up on it :/#btw if you are reading these tags (anyone):#none of this is supposed to read as negative or self critical. I just enjoy talking about developing art skills and what's hard about it et#if you have thoughts I'd be very happy to hear from other artists#not particularly looking for advice though. this is just fun for me :)#i didn't intend to paint this actually i was just getting skin tone references for a character#and i got so absorbed into this little practice painting#if i'd intended to post it i would have chosen someone more well known or a model or something#i feel a bit weird about posting a painting of someone i don't know#and idk if she's in the public eye at all#but i doubt this post will be seen by many people so it's probably fine

the vibe for june 12th is collective soul. since learning they're touring and released an album in this, the year of I'm bored 2024, yesterday, I tried listening to their newer stuff (my collection of their albums ends in 2000). it's not bad and definitely still sounds very much like them, but the older stuff is just dear to my heart.
#music#collective soul#the vibe for#brenna#listen mostly all i did was work and/or think about work#besides listen to music#my best attempt at a headphones selfie and they never work but this one is ok I guess idk#i just love my house so#here's the french doors at twilight#idk i didn't take any photos when it was still daytime#kind of generic this new stuff#but like generic collective soul#if that makes sense#like they're not quite any other band#but a lot of their stuff sounds the same

i wish i could write meaningful poetry or even do comics properly to express ideas and things in my brain that haunt me a bit but i cant so im just left sitting on my bed staring at a wall and going Huh. Okay.
#today ive been thinking a lot about like. google earth of all things LOL#but specifically how id use it all the time as a kid and ofc id look up our house at time in the street view#but now as an adult more than a decade later when i go to our old street address in google eartb the pictures the same. it hasnt been#updated (understandably since its a remote shitty run down apartment in the outskirts of a remote small town in finland of all places#but still. i cant really describe the feeling of looking at a still of my childhood home taken by an outsider as anything but like. dread#because that moment thats still perserved on google earth is from when that house was the most violent and unsafe place in the world to me#and it just stays like that. frozen in time. something about ghosts caught on cameras maybe idk.#doesnt help that we dont have photos of the place really (no one felt like documenting it at the time lol) so its the only thing i have.#this completely From An Outsiders Pov still. its uncomfortable to look at. especially remembering being a child shortly after our street was#added to the site and looking at it during that time period. Man.#and when i do occasionally as an adult use google earth i always think about it too like everything i look at is Someones past

#truly no faster way to make me so so ill than the seol and the seolite diaspora DE tag on ao3. not in a bad way not in a good way either#also last week i hung out w a friend i hadn't seen in a while and we joked about diaspora lit bingo a lot#but yeah idk. the way my sister is reconnecting w her asianness through like. kdramas/cdramas and kpop etc#the way i only have about 4 chinese language songs liked on spotify and they're like#one from the CRA soundtrack two bc i looked up an artist whose photos were on tumblr and who i found hot#and one from my white roommate who's learning mandarin#and i wonder if my parents are like. so bummed that we ignored them and made fun of their shows and music and accents as elementary schoole#and now they see her doing this and me. idk. claiming POCness via something i never engaged with in a way i find satisfactory#or idk. the whole immigrant parents being your passports to your language/culture and once they die it's game over#ESP bc you only ever took enough chinese classes to graduate hs or college no more#and kim kitsuragi is suchhhhhhh an interesting look at that bc like. he is an orphan and he does have zero cultural or language ties to seo#like. he would absolutely dannyamericanbornchinese himself if he could#and i want him to reconnect like i imagine him reconnecting w being asian and it causes feelings of comfort and such in me#but like. he shouldn't have to obviously and#one of the notes of a fic in that tag is from a biracial person who says#I flip between wish fulfillment and scrutinizing the degree Kim 'needs' to reclaim his heritage#and like yeah. yeah. that thing#and idk i don't think there's a distinct chinese-american culture the way that chinese-american cuisine is like. A Thing you know#maybe i'd feel better if there was that#and if there was just one other seolite person in disco elysium but i think kim's racial isolation is purposeful#what is there for me but to idk. reread the joy luck club and have another crisis about it#personal
