(some people believe that seeing a cardinal is sign or message from a deceased loved one, or that cardinals appear when angels or spirits are near)
#dutch van der linde#rdr2#red dead redemption 2#art crimes with koko#I’m never drawing a fucking tree again I stg#or feathers#someone told me this about cardinals and mourning doves when a loved one of mine passed years ago#and now I have a whole flock that live in my backyard#and this is all I can think about#the cardinal could be both of them or a general message or even annabelle#interpret as you see fit

all dogs bite but,
"my dog doesn't bite" he latched his hand around the underside of my jaw pulling back my lips and showing my teeth "see? she's a sweetheart" he grabbed me by the scruff exposing my stomach "wouldn't hurt a fly" he laughed pushed me to the floor "see, she doesn't bite" all dogs bite, bite with their tails tucked between their legs bite with a snarl hiding in the backs of their throats behind a cry they cannot contain bite until their teeth are taken from them, bite until they find themselves at the wrong end of a gun all dogs bite, all dogs latch their jaws around the things they hate
all dogs bite, and they don't let go

There’s something looking back at me
I don’t know why, I don’t care enough
It doesn’t look happy. I can’t read it’s face
I don’t care enough. I don’t know why
I can’t read my mind anymore.
We’re collapsing under my apathy.
And I don’t care enough to stop that anymore.
I broke all my mirrors. I was angry.
It didn’t feel good. I hated being angry.
I cared about it. But not enough for the mirrors
I broke them. All of them. Am I alone now?
Do I care.
Maybe I’ll let myself care for you. Whilst i still can
Let me anchor myself?
I broke the mirrors, do you hate me for it?
I care for you. I don’t understand it. I never did.
But I don’t want to let you go.
I’ll look at you until I can look at myself.
Goodnight, I love you

i think the sacrificial lamb take on evbo is nice and very cool to play with but might i offer my cent?
evbo is a calf.
there is something inherently holy about the sacrifice of a lamb. it is innocent and pure and you give up its life in worship. there is nothing holy about what the iron swords do to evbo. they open the door, they torture him, they slaughter him. they farm him. cattle are farm animals.
some calves are born to be killed for veal. there are multiple different ways veal calves are raised, with a range in ages at which they are slaughtered for their meat. one process for raising veal calves, which is particularly inhumane (and really quite disgusts me), involves placing the calf in a small pen and feeding it barely sustainable food until it reaches around eighteen weeks old. they are then killed for veal.
there is no worship when it comes to slaughtering the trembling calf staring down the barrel of your gun. you simply watch as it falls limp to the ground, blood pooling beneath its body, before you drag it off to be turned into the meat that sits on your plate.
why would you ever worship the creature that only ever lived to die?
#mcyt#minecraft youtube#pvpciv#pvp civilization#pvp civ#pvp civ spoilers#evbo pvpciv#evbo#ah yes farm animal metaphors#evbo no!!! you aren't actually the chosen one!!!!! you are just the tool the iron swords see fit to treat like livestock!!!!!!!!!#pvp civ brainrot is crazy#also i did research on veal calves when i considered my calf evbo interpretation and#that was SO sad#and disturbing

@mcyt-yuri-week Day 5, Rose/Thorns I never stop thinking about SL episode 8 never ever
#gempearl#pearlgem#shinyduo#shiny duo#trafficshipping#I tried to word it a few different ways but I feel like its still so easy to interpret this as negative but noo its positive#because the thorns here are referencing the scarlet persona that Pearl's embraced. being left with nothing but it - the thorns#But it's not that Gem likes her just for her scarlet persona. She likes her for her. Pearl's not just thorns#Gem doesnt really care about the “thorns” or the petalless rose stem. she cares about Pearl. She thinks Pearl's cool (thumbs up emoji)#Pearl changes into her scarlet fit like she has many times before with the purpose of scaring people & leaning into her feared witch thing#but Gem's just like “omg slayyy” and its the best. And to Pearl it's like whoag#Gem never saw how she changed. Never saw her be ostracized and the aftermath#But she thought that the Pearl she did see in SL was cool and so easily accepted her when Pearl herself though herself so unacceptable#she got love from the Mounders and BigB and that warms my heart but Gem being a newcomer immediately embracing Pearl is just#it hits different#whoa jimbo way too many tags hghghgh#mcytyuriweekvalentines#at first I thought about smth like “where the others saw thorns you saw a rose” but I thought it was more fitting this way#I guess you guys be the judge of that haha idk what Im saying#tubby art

Well, after some several hours i finally finished this. I used the "Kermes" art as a reference. Im doing another, but that im wanting to change thr colors. The sun was something that i wanted to draw because of your arts that has some red background. dunno why, but my first idea was drawing machete with Dante's clothes or Vergil.... i hope you liked it :)
.
#oh it's wild seeing him interpretated through embroidery!#it must've been a painstaking process to fill in his clothes with all that red#and with such small stitches#yeah I've used sun/halo imagery quite a few times especially with him#so it's definitely fitting#I'd be lying if I said The Divine Comedy and all the art associated with it hadn't been a steady influence#when it comes to Machete#I think it's rather unavoidable considering his time period occupation and general vibe#that's really neat! thank you for sharing!#gift art#ravenfinetemper#own characters#Machete

if you think sam winchester was the most queer coded character in spn don’t even mutual me at this point just kiss me right on the mouth
#not txf#i love him so much#if anyone wants an essay on this hmu#i love dean and cas but c’mon guys. did you even watch season 1&4#don’t get me wrong i can totally see how dean COULD be interpreted that way#i just think sams entire character arc surrounding purity and being ostracized by his family just fits the queer experience a lot more#i need to be shot dead for posting spn in the close year of 2025#spn#spn meta#sam winchester#sam girl#sam winchester meta

in my heart of hearts mike wheeler is absolutely an athena kid but i also have to offer up a concept that i think has extreme comedic and dramatic potential aka: repressed gay teenager mike showing up at camp half blood unsure of who his godly parent is and feeling insecure about not having powers and one day when he’s making not-so-secret heart eyes at his best friend and son of apollo will byers is when a bunch of glowing floating hearts show up above his head. and that’s how mike gets claimed by none other than aphrodite, the goddess of love and sexuality, and is in full denial about it for three days because he thinks it’s some kind of sick and twisted JOKE
(on aphrodite’s end, she’s upset mike is throwing away the gift of true love and keeps trying to trick him out of repression by making more and more improbable and hilarious gifts appear when he and will are hanging out. mike hands will a book and it turns into a box of chocolates and he has to fling it away like a frisbee before will sees it. they’re having lunch and romantic music starts playing. she gives mike the same blessing she used to claim piper and will can’t even look in his direction for a full day because he starts blushing so hard. fifty bouquets of flowers show up at the apollo cabin’s doorstep with a note that says love, mike and by the end of it, mike isn’t even repressed and unsure about his sexuality anymore — he’s just trying to not throw himself into the bonfire out of sheer embarrassment)
#also shoutout to piper mclean bc i think her arc of not believing she is an aphrodite kid bc she doesn’t fit the model for it and having#been teased and made an outcast of sorts kind of jaded her and made her actively rebel against being an aphrodite kid#i just think that is very mike wheeler of her#n then she spends five books learning what love means and what being an aphrodite kid means#again. very mike. to Me#credits to abby bc i said ‘what if mike shows up at chb and he is repressed and gay and immediately gets claimed by iris the rainbow goddess#and she said i see this and raise you aphrodite#and i said oh my fucking god.#anyways might write this. (is opening a google doc)#but we will see.#again like in all actuality i think he is super an athena kid to Me anyway. although i think a pjo/st au is one that is very open to inter#*interpretation#i just think this hc has a little kick to it#before anyone gets MAD and says no that’s STUPID and he would totally be Blah Blah Blah. i don’t want to hear it#byler#mike wheeler#/astro posts#pjo

classic trope that’s never worn out is when an enemy is your enemy because they are a shining example of everything you once were. they’re everything you would still be had you not descended into a dark mirror, a decayed shadow of your former self. they’re everything you choose not to be, that you gave up, and you love them for it and you hate them for it and you have to fight them, you just have to. the inherent romanticism, the inevitability of hating someone because once you were just like them.
#of proving over and over again by your hatred that that isn’t you anymore#that you’re committed to your righteousness or monstrosity#they don’t know what’s coming they view you as Other still#but they don’t understand#you’re the end game.#they can either see the truth and become you#or prove themselves your enemy by staying the same….#they’ll see.#you’ll make them see.#you know?#INQUISITOR OR PURGE TROOPER AU MY BELOVED#fratt#daredevil#cherik#x men#black sails#fallout tv show#ghoulcy#unfortunately#listen the way i feel about ghoulcy is incomprehensible to most#i never engage with fanwork ab it bc my interpretation is so specific#but in this case it fits#sith inquisitor#purge trooper

hard to overstate just how much lynch has influenced me as a storyteller. i think the most important thing he gave to the world was the concept that he was going to show you something, he was going to offer you a story, and it was your task and your responsibility to figure it out. the audience is part of the exchange and has a role to play, and the audience's role is just as important as anyone else's.
#this is the crux of the famous 'elaborate on that.' 'no.' exchange#he's not there to offer elaboration. you are there to elaborate and interpret as you see fit.#dl retrospective#david lynch#lynchblogging#writing tag

can i just say. i find it a bit odd that people, even people who dont dislike teruhashi, want her to not end up with saiki because "itd teach her not everyone will love her"
like... half the point of her character is that... NOBODY loves her. nobody knows her and sees her and genuinely likes her, they just like the crafted self she projects outwardly... except for saiki. saiki is the only person who actually likes TERUHASHI, and you guys dont want that??
this scene is literally her realizing "these guys didnt even notice or care about my exhaustion and only cared about me continuing to make them feel good about themselves even after i passed out, but SAIKI noticed and cared"
#im not saying you have to ship them and i do think itd be fitting for her character development to not end up with anyone#either at all or for a long time#maybe end up with a girl in the far future if not saiki#i dont personally like the interpretation that his feelings for her are platonic but it isnt wrong and i do think its fitting for their-#development either way for them to end up being closer friends instead of dating#i just dont like this REASON for wanting her not to end up with him#i get it in theory because him not caring about her at first was a wake-up call to make her realize this#but like. we're FAR past that now. some of you just cant see past their initial problems#saiki k#tdlosk#the disastrous life of saiki k.#teruhashi kokomi#meows post

//hi hi. just before we embark on this journey, there is a song that just adds a whole new element when i read the comic while listening. it's called "Je te laisserai des mots" by Patrick Watson, if you want! i put links at the bottom of the post O_o//
Same phrase, different contextual meaning... nothing but LOVE
#i drew the outline and while i was coloring this song happened to play#and the melody really fit with the vibe#and then i looked up the lyrics#and it was kind of crazy to see how a song perfectly told the story i was trying to tell#i can rant about that if you are curious :)#also i am kind of curious of how you will interpret it#im at a loss for words this comic means a lot to me#rottmnt#turtle tots#rottmnt leo#rottmnt donnie#disaster twins#dreamscape#Spotify

Because I'm afraid
And I want you to help me

FLAMING HOT TAKE INCOMING, DISCLAIMER FIRST: punch out is a game with no lore and little to no characterization so it’s natural that different people have different takes on a character and I 10000% respect that and I love seeing how people interpret stuff differently from me!!!!! this is not a dig or a diss this is just personal observation!!!!!!!!!!
i don’t get why the overall fandom consensus is that don flamenco is head over heels in love with the blonde lady [that the fandom calls Carmen (this I do understand why)] in his cinematic trailer. it’s always been apparent to me that this guy is supposed to be like a casanova/serial womanizer/harem enthusiast douchebag kinda guy.
1. country of origin and profession: every enemy character in this game is supposed to be an exaggerated cultural stereotype/caricature, so it’s natural to assume that most of their character traits are not meant to subvert audience expectations, and flamenco is no exception! Spaniards are stereotyped as carelessly romantic, and toreadors seem to be associated with more socially conservative or dare I say, sexist/woman objectifying behavior. it would be logical to presume that flamenco also embodies these traits
2. contender intro slideshow: most people (and I as well) like to use the final slide of his contender intro as evidence of his romantic status. however, I fail to see how it shows him as faithful; on the contrary, the fact that the girls around “Carmen” are a. (for one of them) also wearing roses - the same color as the one he’s giving her, in fact - and b. clearly looking shocked and disgusted seems to show me that those girls were also the object of flamenco’s short-lived affection and that the blonde girl is just his next “target” so to speak.
now how to justify his in-battle voice lines referring to his affection for carmen? well look no further than Carmen, the opera by Bizet, where the titular Carmen ends up being with a toreador (like don flamenco). it could be possible that he uses “Carmen” as a pet name for all of his flings rather than the actual name of his one true love
please feel free to prove me wrong bc I see nobody else with this interpretation and I wanna know why everyone agrees that he’s a faithful boyfriend/malewife lmao
#punch out#punchouthottakes#don flamenco#carmen mi amor#this was the one I thought tumblr deleted I’m so glad it didn’t cause this is really well written#ANYWAYS I find all your points very interesting and honestly I didn’t consider them from your point of view anon#I can understand why someone would see Don as just a womanizer it does fit into his stereotypical character#However as a cardon lover… I have a counterpoint#1) She has a more distinct design than all the other background characters. She still has the beady eyes the bg characters have#But her dress is so damn ugly I feel that it was intentional? Like why else would it look to different from everyone else UNLESS#She’s supposed to stand out as Don’s one love. There’s a bunch of others who love him but he still loves his Carmen even with that dress lo#2) for the “malewife” point take a look at Don’s NES quotes#For some reason he just randomly references Star Wars. Sure that could just be a reference from the game developers#But this is punch out we have SCRAPS when it comes to character interpretation#Don randomly referencing Star Wars makes me feel like he has some dorky side to him and he hides it with his whole Bullfighter persona#And so him being a malewife could be from the fact he’s secretly a dork and so surely he’d be all dorky and cringe with Carmen#Sorry this was long but again I LOVE discussion about the game#FORGOT TO SAY THIS TOO but Don’s VA said himself that Carmen was Don’s love#at least that’s how he saw it so take that info as you will

teen wolf meme: [4/5] motifs -> bardo
All the stuff you guys were just saying? All that happens in Bardo. There are different progressive states where you can have hallucinations. Some you see, some you just hear. And you can be visited by peaceful or wrathful deities. [...] If there are different progressive states, then what's the last one? Death. You die.
#teen wolf#stiles stilinski#scott mccall#theo raeken#allison argent#kate argent#tara raeken#twedit#twgifs#mine#my gifs#twmeme#this motif can also be called that fuckass morgue drawer jeff is obsessed with#yes i know scott's nightmares in time of death while he's basically dead and theo's time in the skinwalker prison aren't actually said to b#in bardo in the show but to me the way the show portrays bardo as this inbetween state between life and death and the way kira describes it#it makes a lot of sense to me to interpret them as being instances of bardo within the show sue me#like reading tara and the mute as wrathful deities much like kate was for allison just fits for me soooo well#and also characters being in this in between stage is a motif in teen wolf you can't argue with that and the show called it bardo in 3b#so that's what i'm gonna call all the instances#also bardo is obviously closely tied to the resurrection motif especially in the case of scott stiles and allison in season 3#which is why i didn't include them being surrogate sacrifices for the resurrection one cause i felt like it might muddy the water too much#in terms of what i'm trying to convey with these gifsets but just know that i do see that scene as a death and resurrection#and then of course it involves being submerged in water and you all know how insane i get about that

super disorganized sketch page because i do what i want
#my art#not sure if i wanna tag these... hrm#i wonder if alt text shows up in search results.... shudders#well anyway. i wanna ramble about these!!#for willy mafton: i've been working on designing more of the human cast. mainly all the big name important ones#it's been a slow process + a little challenging but i like getting the chance to practice drawing faces! :]#in regards to His design specifically.. it's very much based off of his movie apperance#but with a reference to that Classic sprite thrown in#bc i thought making him a little cartoony and inhuman would fit him :] but idk im not an expert on his character or anything#about the rabbit lady: i forgot how i had that idea initially but it ended up looking so fucking cool tbh#im always a fan of making her design less of a feminine eye candy type of design and more of a Spooky Murderer type >:3c#it also gave me the idea to try making some similar designs for the glams...#but if i do that im not gonna be giving them that vintage rubber mask look... since they're meant to be super flashy and high tech looking#so i was thinking they could have faces with more of a silicone texture.. and that have a style based more off of their in game art work :]#so they'd be like giant dolls with weird moving faces rather than having a vintage animatronic look#also that van in the bottom middle is 100% a homage to a specific user i wont be mentioning but iykyk HFJZJFJF#ANYWAY the 🌞🌜 stuff: dont be weird about it please HFJZJG#im aware that these tags are very easy to ignore but like. genuinely pls dont be weird about them#dont romanticize it. its not meant to be ''y/ndere'' or anything like that#its actually a bit personal to me so like... interpret it as you like but be aware its not meant to be a happy or positive thing#anyway i think thats all i have to say... i've been trying to branch out a tiny bit regarding the things i draw#it's always nice to challenge yourself even if its tough... especially if its tough!!#i mainly draw just for my own sake but i hope ppl see something they like here#these tags got so fucking long oops... i'll stop now JFKZJFKSJGKSJG
