it's obviously for exposition reasons but CP9 showing up in Water 7 and IMMEDIATELY unveiling themselves and fully explaining who they are and how their organization works is so funny
Lucci spent 5 years pretending he could only communicate through pigeon ventriloquism, and as soon as he stops he doesn’t shut up. Just immediately yapping about being secret government agents, the structure of their covert organization (that's not supposed to exist), and world government's secret plans for mass destruction. Starting to think Hattori was actually a safeguard so they could make it that long undercover
#lucci 0.1 seconds out of disguise: 'paulie we’re secret government agents who've been spying on your boss for years'#'paulie we've been trained since childhood to use these specific special techniques. also look at my cool devil fruit. it makes me a cat.'#at galley-la it’s like JUST lucci too kalifa kaku and blueno only say the bare minimum and keep their disguises mostly on#they had dead body doubles prepped and everything like are you faking your death or Not#yes I know they have to explain who they are somehow and Lucci does the most talking cause he's the leader but he really goes 0-100#'well we're killing him anyway- franky we're government agents/spies here to rob you. here's the things we've already done and our plans'#rob lucci#hattori#one piece#water 7#cp9

I need need neeeed Sophie to have some fight with the Neverseen where she just lets go
absolutely no fear she just puts all the skills she already has to use and fucking destroys like 5 members on her own
#kotlc#keeper of the lost cities#sophie foster#feral sophie <333#like she had the whole training arc in flashback#and it seemed like her fighting skills were better#give me a fight scene where she just wins Shannon please I'll dl anything#“how did you do that it's only been a month since i gave you the dagger”#“it's pretty simple swing sharp object and hit target”#“you're using ogre and goblin techniques perfectly”#“whoops”

The Yiga Clan isn’t a cult in my honest opinion.
They’re more like a crime syndicate.
If a crime syndicate was also an oppressed minority group subjected to a genocide in the distant past and continued marginalization in the present as they’re forced to lurk at the edges of and mostly outside society to eke out a living through theft and violence while the “good” members of the same minority who accepted the harsh terms of cultural genocide at the hands of the very people they served get to stand next to every other race that reviles them and call them “evil” and “traitors” because they seek justice against the divine-right monarchy that betrayed them first and have forsworn the goddess who never once deigned to help them.
They're not monsters to be mowed down, they're people. People who engage in genuine and understandable strife against authority figures who uphold systems of inequality.
...
Anyway, that's what I think.
(Edit: For even more of me rambling, see the notes.)
#yiga clan#master Kohga#((ps i only said 'crime syndicate' as a joke i don't mean that sincerely. i mean the main part of my post sincerely.))#((<--clarification bc tone on the internet sometimes doesn't come through))#anyway headcanons are headcanons but here's mine: they're not a cult and they're not indoctrinating anyone#they have beliefs about the royal family and hylian nobility and the kakariko sheikah sure#and those beliefs certainly don't line up with what those groups ('the good guys') think about themselves#but i personally don't think that makes them a cult? again imo#they also love their masters kohga but why shouldn't they? everybody play age of calamity current kohga deserves their love#he's a silly guy with flaws but he cares about his people. this is not properly shown in botw bc he's barely in it.#and it's easy to say 'they revere this looney tunes-level dork whose boss battle was a cakewalk? they must be stupid/indoctrinated!'#but uh...why couldn't they just genuinely love him and think he's cool? why's that so hard to believe?#straight up he IS cool. he just had to deal with Hylia's Chosen Hero who has constant access to a hammerspace arsenal and a Sheikah Slate#((ie kohga's own ancestors' magitech that they were forced to give up or die/be exiled for!))#he himself can clearly *use several ancient Sheikah techniques* without a slate *including magnesis* in the BotW battle!#the yiga clan did nothing wrong (they’ve done many things wrong but can you blame them?) ((you can but yet. can you??))#((this is what we call nuance. and morality not being black and white.))#((ANYWAY THAT'S WHAT I THINK))#((people are obviously allowed to think otherwise and that’s why I said ‘in my honest OPINION’ on this post! but that IS my opinion))#legend of zelda#kidk headcanons

day 99
i have NEARLY finished the skirt for my ren faire fit i just gotta get a few finishing details added and also get the undershirt bleached (bc i got a bunch of makeup on it at last years fair and shit Stained) but THEN i can show yall the final fit!!
#day 99#year 5#aradia megido#homestuck#its gonna be cute#i was so fucking stressed abt this one because like.#i bought my fabric and i was like oh yeah dude this is toooootally more than enough for a circle skirt#went to finally cut things#realized i only had enough for a half-circle skirt and it would end up with a bunch of weirdly-shaped scrap at the end#(ie i would have to do a bunch of weird piecing to make the waistband and pockets and such)#and like honestly a half-circle skirt was NOT enough volume for me i need my skirts swooshy#so i was like well. okay. i think i can optimize my fabric usage more if i draft a paneled skirt#but this of course required..... Math.#and unfortunately. i was an art major. so. there was a lot of struggling#BUT I DID IT. THERE WAS STILL A LIIIIITTLE BIT OF PIECING THAT HAD TO BE DONE BUT IT IS MINIMAL AND CAMOUFLAGED PRETTY WELL#and also this is for a ren faire primarily bc i dont wear a lot of skirts in day-to-day#SO. economical fabric usage is absolutely period accurate. even though none of the rest of my outfit or techniques are.#basically all thats left for me to do is add pockets and the closure at the back#i meant to add the pockets as i was doing the main construction but i got too excited and forgor#so theres gonna be some seam ripping but nothing too bad

I think i doubt my ability to work faster under stress too much
#classwork#banana yoshimoto#kitchen#so much for lurking#sorry i just like how these turned out haha; this was one of the things that was bothering me so it feels nice to have it done#i don't like the second one as much as the first one but it *is* empty on purpose... metaphors and stuff#this is for my capstone; it's our only art assignment we'll have for the whole semester (intimidating)#we had two options for what to do depending on what kind of focus we've placed on our work#people who were focusing on content for studio work had to make something that represented themself as an artist#people like me who focus more on technique and meeting task requirements had to depict something based on... any... literature#so i took a middle ground and did two page inserts for a book that's important to me#i actually wanted to do only one really detailed insert but my prof wanted two so i had to divide my time#and also read the whole book again which left less time for the actual drawing#crying bc the dropbox for this closed five minutes before I got this done#even though this technically isn't due until the beginning of class tomorrow#it'll be fine since i'm bringing the files to class via USB anyway but it'd be nice to have it submitted so it could leave my conscious lol#uh i also have to type up something for this so i shall do that now#night night

#for context. a few weeks back i was playing on a fast respawn 2fort server#mostly because i just wanted to just. hang out somewhere without any real serious gameplay happening#that said. for the first few hours i was playing on there. was mostly playing gunslinger engineer and detonator pyro#and we had a good push up into their base but were stuck just at the entrance. with a heavy hold from the enemy team#but after a while. i just kinda got bored and wanted to just fuck about with the taunts and loadouts i had#first thing i did was play pyro and do the cheers taunt before getting on my bike and swerving a bunch as i drove#but i dont think anyone could tell thats what i was doing#so after a bit i just changed to scout. and started just riding my skateboard#(i also did the drinking and riding bit a few times but i eventually just ended up skateboarding around)#(one bit being me on the top of the bridge. doing the cheers taunt. getting on my board. and then skating off the bridge and killbinding)#so at some point. i kept getting stuck in place for some reason. like speficially on bumpy ground or... in the air#and the moment i got stuck in the air (for 30+ seconds mind you) i was just like ''my quantum board technique''#and from there. i just acted as if i was playing the newest Pro Skater game#saying stuff like ''i have to do manual ollie combo for 150000000 points''#or like ''i have to find grindrails on this level''#eventually found my way into the sewers and said something like ''IVE FOUND THE HALF PIPES''#before saying like ''man they really screwed up the physics since the last game''#a soldier on the other team was trying to find me the whole time saying ''wheres tony hawk''#specifically because he had a tony hawk avatar. and i only realized after he said something about it#anyway. after all that i skateboarded into a minisentry and died#and my last message was supposed to be ''my combo has ended'' but i ended up typing 'bombo'#and it made me laugh SO hard i couldnt backspace. and added on with ''my sweet bombo''#and then i left because i had nothing more to do there. my bombo had ended and i had to move on.

Everyone blame @missmeltycat for inadvertently reminding me about this show months ago and it now spiralling into becoming one of my comfort shows /j
#also I tried a new shading technique#lazytown#sportacus#lazy town fan art#comfort show#I used to watch this show when I was super young and for like over 10 years I’ve only had one slightly traumatic memory of it

in dazai's jjk verse it mainly centres around him being in the same year group as geto and gojo, namely because in bsd dazai is shown to be around the same age if not exactly in 2005. but having him born after gojo means that his existence is a direct conflict and result of gojo's own birth as within the same year the strongest sorcerer was born, so was the strongest anti-sorcerer (???) at least as far as cursed energy nullification goes, dazai exists to counteract gojo's existence in some sense.
#⸌ ⋆ ooc.#at least this is what i've talked abt with kae sooo at least. it exist there in the very lease sense#dazai had a similarly sheltered upbringing but after several attempts at running away he was instead placed in tokyo tech in the hopes they#would be able to better manage him there. his great-uncle is one of jujutsu headquarter's higher-ups and as such there have been vast#experimentations as to how far dazai's cursed energy nullification can go - namely: if by touching a sorcerer's soul he can rid them of#their cursed energy completely. no longer human exists as his domain only where his cursed technique is just the nullification#i just think its fun to explore whatever rimbaud was on about in bsd when he said dazai's ability had no peers in the west and no rivals#the same is said for his jjk verse - your best anti-sorcerer weapon is friends with this era's strongest sorcerer like you're all doomed#but mhm. it exists as still having to be activated by touch so you just know this kid is covered in scrapes and bruises#but as someone proficient in evasive techniques he's usually paired with someone more suited to hand to hand combat#haha. anyway i just love his jjk verse

I'm on a trip right now but next week when I get home I'm gonna draw Xiao Pingguo and Lan Wunian
Would you do it. Would you do it for them
#ask#equineswap au#xiao pingguo#lan wunian#Anon sent this a week ago (whoops (welcome home (I'm putting absolutely no pressure on you I just want to be silly)))#They both had to learn this technique from fairy btw#the act of using the soggy eyes is not a natural inclination for their personalities#I like to imagine she's just out of frame directing them. 'Get soggier' she says 'Like you will die unless you get some peanutbutter'#Fairy the dog is probably not much of a beggar. Jin Ling doesn't want her belly to hurt.#Jiang Cheng only spoils dogs with cuddles#So lets go with 'Fairy the human's love language is probably touch and words of affirmation'#of course I'm thinking about love languages for these AU characters right now. I will ruminate on the other two girls' today.#this has nothing at all to do with Anon saying they want to draw the beloveds. my god I'll die for you if you do but no pressure

Frustrating when a VC-funded company gets credit for being the "first" and the "leader," when they had a sub-component demo the same week we had a full-system demo. Like, we are easily 5-10 years ahead of them, it's ridiculous; their approach isn't even yet proven to work. But they get science youtubers talking about them.
Because they're VC-funded, they have a marketing/press department.
And because we're an employee-owned company working off of government contracts, well, most government contracts get slapped with an ITAR label (an old Cold-War-era law saying basically sharing scientific information counts as illegally selling arms/munitions). So if you want to publicize your work, including your company's products, you have to appeal that label. (Universities have specifically negotiated a blanket exemption, so if you spend your whole life in academic science you might never even know about this.)
(My previous employer filed those appeals several times a year in order to do press releases and publish journal articles and apply for patents. I think every single information-release appeal they filed went through, because there's no reason any of this stuff should be labeled as arms--it's literally the same stuff universities are doing. My current employer is afraid to, which I think is wrong-headed; at worst they'll just say no, and anyway, our non-restricted competitors are giving fucking lab tours to youtubers.)
#these restrictions mean you also can't have employees on visas working on these projects#my previous employer tried to appeal that too and failed--they were only able to appeal the dissemination of information part#so we had locked labs that my international coworkers weren't allowed in#(one got a green card and was allowed in eventually)#ironically the VC-funded company is doing it the same way I did it in my PhD thesis#two other people at the company did this stuff in their post-docs#all of us are over 40 (one guy is over 50 I'm pretty sure) so this is not a new technique--I got two MINOR papers on it 16 years ago#the MAJOR papers are like 25 years old#and we're all convinced it's NOT the right approach#granted the technique we are using is about 30 years old#in my literal thesis defense one of my committee members asked why I was using the technique the VC companies are now using#and if I had done the math to prove it was superior to the older technique#and I was like--everyone knows the new technique is superior that's why it's trendy#and my advisor (who was a genius) said the same thing and that it wasn't a fair question#but the guy who asked it was an ancient theorist who REALLY knew what he was talking about#and in retrospect he was completely right--I should have done the math comparing the techniques and the older technique IS better#a few weeks into my job here I did the math and found that if you use the BEST version of the new technique--one that only one group#has demonstrated can even be done and they didn't get all the way to the point of demonstrating an application like this#and you assume some generous efficiency numbers#it breaks even with the old technique#that's not what this VC group is doing so... not a chance lol

#art#I just wanted to see if there was a recording function on my laptop and there is! It looks interesting so I thought I'd share#Imagine the first protomen album playing in the background - It's what I was listening to actually while painting haha#The colors look terrible on mobile... I don't want to deal with that 😭 it's more vibrant on my computer#Anyways the recorder only recorded the main photoshop window.#it’s strange not to see my screen not half covered by references along with the layers/history haha When I stream on discord it does it too#I was getting really annoyed and bored with the rendering process I had grown accustomed too#Lazy sketches and thousands of transparent brushstrokes of layers were getting to me - almost a watercolor technique?#Been messing around a lot and this painting method is quite fun actually - I think that's what is most important - the results be damned#I had stopped touching the liquify and smudge tool for a really long time and I've been using it for this#So yes I've been enjoying myself and to change the current more I've been doing a lot developed sketches too#also....Sometimes I doodle chibi VHD while in class...would anyone actually be interested if I post them on here? ♡(๑´• .̫ •ू`๑)

your fics have fundamentally reshaped my understanding of rise characters. this is helping me make them much more fucked up thank you-
i love writing happy endings and gratuitous hurt/comfort but im not planning on ever tackling therapy in cc for a reason.... beyond the whole poverty thing i am just entranced by the idea of them making each other a little worse and having to really brute force and stumble their way through it. it's very narratively interesting. grins
#ask#canary continuity#im writing in a different genre than the show ultimately so i can play around with innocuous concepts#like hey they pretty much only grew up around each other in a family dynamic where they had to take age SO seriously to function#it was their survival technique#and they have this innate soul link too#i genuinely think they would be this horrendously codependent#especially if something like this were to happen#push one domino and the others fall kitsune was actually kind of spittin etc etc etc#THIS IS VERY FLATTERING THOUGH i love complicated narratives where everyone's a little wrong#big recommend. its SO fun
