oughgh i hate getting ideas for videos that i KNOW if i started i wouldn't be able to finish, just because of how energy intensive or long they'd be. im being haunted by a music video in my head every time i listen to this one specific song

[vesna-v-irkutske]

in your opinion, are there a lot of russian tccers?

I think so, yeah. People come and go, obviously, but there are hundreds of thousands of people. Okay, maybe a little less than that, and some are more "deep" than the others, of course, but still.

To be honest, I haven't had much interactions with Russian tccers in recent ~4 years, but now, because of my hyperfixation, yes, kinda. Well, it's not like I'm talking to them in DMs (and I don't really want to), I'm just observing while I'm looking for info or something. And I see a few here, obviously. 👋🏻 And I periodically receive notifications about someone's videos about various crimes & perpetrators (popular or not), so this stuff definitely has an audience. But I think it's more "casual" on YouTube.

In recent years, all this has been blocked more and more often (RIP to my favorite VK community dedicated to Dahmer and one great site about serial killers (mostly Soviet/Russian ones); I blame it all on kids with guns trying to repeat something that happened more than 20 years ago, they attract attention, and everyone gets blocked or worse), so many have laid low, so to speak. But they're still lurking somewhere. Where? Who knows. Mostly Telegram, I assume, but blocks aren't that rare there, it's not as safe as you may believe.

I've had this oc rolling around in my head for a while now and I have to set them free.

This is Riley Parker, they are an amateur boxer making a living as a part-time convenience store clerk in San Myshuno. Riley has always had to fight for what was theirs, biting and clawing their way from foster family to foster family as a young kid. When they aged out of the system, they spent the next few years train-hopping until they finally settled on their current place of residence, starving and lonely and only slightly feral.

Their ambition wants to see them punching skulls in until they are on the professional boxing circuit and they will tear down everyone on their way until they get there.

Alistair: You're... you're taking advantage of the Templars! Encouraging them! And for money! You... despicable, profiteering crook!

It is very interesting seeing this line and then remembering that the context is Alistair being very upset that a Circle mage is... selling (smuggled) lyrium to the Templars. Alistair. Honey. If anyone in this arrangement is taking advantage of anyone it's not Godwin. Also given Godwin can't leave (meaning he can't really do a lot of shopping) I doubt it's just about the money? Like, it would make a lot of sense for part of the reasoning to be "If I'm supplying them with lyrium they'll probably be nice to me". I would love the option for a mage Warden to actually comment on the fact that... yeah, a lot of mages probably have arrangements of some variation or other with the Templars to keep them more or less friendly! Smuggling lyrium for them is probably one of the less upsetting options! The moments where Alistair's Templar training and lack of experience with mages and the Circles come to the surface are so fascinating to me, I'd love to actually discuss it with him.

Have you ever sat in a chair before.......

+ Other doodles on the same page

[renif]

sorry for the lack of posts guys, even though I would love to draw, because I have so many ideas, I do not really have the time, because I am busy having a mental breakdown over my classes, so yeah i wouldn't expect much until I find some kind of balance between learning and my free time

[gaylightisminetocommand]

Soooo I've been rotating a HTTYD ToA AU in my brain for the last few years. Not much plot stuff, mainly the GoA just hanging out and instigating shenanigans as we should've gotten to see more of and maybe fighting some evil stuff, only they have dragons and it takes place in the same time period as HTTYD. Similar dynamic to the dragon riders.

Anyway! I've been wanting to redraw this concept for a while (drew Jim and Claire and their dragons ages ago and they're absolutely atrocious), I think it would be a good way to make myself draw some of the other characters I love but don't draw as much, soooo... any dragon suggestions? So far I've locked in:

Jim - Light Fury (cause blue and idk I just think it works)

Claire - Razorwhip (the Shadow Staff always reminded me of one lol, also there are canonically ones with purple eyes)

Toby - Gronkle (cause Rocks)

Aja - Deadly Nadder (fun-loving and energetic but also badass and dangerous)

Douxie maaaay have a Skrill but idk. So yeah if anyone in both fandoms has any suggestions then let me know!

ALSO trolley problem answers for spinder & anyone else who you think has a creative solution 👀

from this ask game

Spinder gets the point of this thought exercise but if they're going to ask such a contrived question, he's going to give a contrived answer. Which means he would learn a lot about trolleys and how easy it is to derail them (I am far from an expert but I think it would depend on the landscape. I suspect a trolley with a cable grip, like in San Francisco, is harder to derail if the cable grip is active, but idk). He's got a whole plan for derailing, or otherwise mechanically disrupting the trolley (if it stops pulling power does it stop moving? how fast can he get on the roof?). Aside from his absolute pettiness he also can't help but imagine the fallout from having vehicularly manslaughtered one or more people and he doesn't think he could deal with that.

Christina "now you're thinking with warpals" Larousse would just warp the trolley. Ideally this would happen after she already was not in the trolley, but if she has to die with it, so be it. In general, if sacrificing herself would save everyone else, she'd probably do it. But if there are other people in the trolley, as in some versions of the problem, because she's not going to sacrifice them to warp. Hypothetically she could just warp away the split in the track, thereby derailing the trolley and saving everyone. But that's a much smaller target than a trolley and harder to hit when she's moving. If she had to actually abide by the rules of the exercise she would kill the one person. Unless that one person was her father. Then she'd be so paralyzed about it that she'd do nothing and the five people would die. Which is still a lot less people than she indirectly enabled Althea to kill, but that's cold comfort.

Althea would let the five be killed without hesitation if there was a single person among them that had ever pissed her off. She doesn't really care either way, but it would feel better to get a little revenge. However, she would also switch away from a track Christina is tied to, an absolutely frigid comfort for Christina.

Vic, among others, has pointed out that if you do nothing, you're not responsible for what happens. Which is a tenuous position, but he would like it to be true. But he'd also rather kill one person than five, so make of that what you will.

Celia and Allison are still wondering what kind of Gotham-ass trolley line this is, like, first of all, how did these people get tied to the tracks? Is this some kind of a trick? Are the five people all robots and the one person a human? There's just not enough information here.

Dez would be extremely dismayed by the idea that the five people could be robots. But if they were, they have backups, right? Right? Syndy is already holding him back from steering away from the five probably-robots, because she considers herself an expert on how humans die, actually, so they can't run over the human. If the robots turn out to be humans, they are both scarred for life and also the first androids to go to jail, probably. They develop a weird game of chicken where they keep saying they're going to delete the memories but come up with reasons not to. Doing this only deals them more psychic damage.

"You just gotta kill the one person," Avis says, with total conviction and complete boredom. "That's how these puzzles work. You gotta do a shitty thing, so you have to do the least shitty version of the thing." It's a toss up if she'd automatically run over the five if she was considering whether or not to run over Sid as the one person, though.
