when neil was going to save andrew at the hemmick's house, he knew exactly what kind of wood the door was, and how easy it would be to break through. that's what kind of guy he is. neil doesn't win fights, but he is damn good at a getaway. this is a really good example about how all of neil's knowledge is really selective because of his upbringing. we need more survivalist neil because he shows all these traits in the books, another example is when he hitchhiked from columbia to palmetto. please stop ignoring this because i want to see batshit insane neil on the run fics right now thx
#aftg#all for the game#all for the gay#neil josten#he really was a crazy man#these books suspend disbelief so well#and contextually#it makes sense#which is the worst part#it absolutely shouldnt#but alas

thetis and her grandbaby
the second panel originally was going to read "hes mine now" lol.
achilles probably jumped in after his mother (who went to show off to her friends), forgetting that neo is very cant breathe under water XD
look at his tiny lil hand holding onto her robes dfghjk. held my baby cousin last night and shes so light and squishy ahh. very babbly too :')
#i love my grandmothers sm you guys :')#drawing bebehs shouldnt be this hard omg. cleaning up the first one alone took me no less than an hour#also sorry for the awful quality as usual the first one was a screenshot salvaged bc my phone crashed#also ignore the anatomy pls. or lack thereof lmao#fun story when my baby brother was born i was totally okay with sharing mama. my grandmother however was off limits#she was mine and mine alone lol#my art#thetis#neoptolemus#behold le bebe#i think neo would babble like nobodys business. its the cutest frickin thing and absolutely no one can hold a straight face#company is like discussing fish politics over tea and what have you and there he goes contributing his views on foreign policy#achilles would be the dad to like tell him stuff like hes his coworker & narrate his days events or the scenery to put him to sleep#deidamia would tell him all the tea she got from her sisters and thetis and talk to him while they walk together#anyway he picks up speech/ vocal patterns?#nothing coherent yet but its very amusing#its sweet#achilles#deidamia#greek mythology

every time i read an autobiographical comic about a transfeminine person practicing putting on makeup as a visual metaphor for the difficulty of Performing Womanhood i can feel my whole heart vibrate with sympathy. like. one of the absolutely most common Girl Experiences is feeling like you're never girling right or enough. there's so many rules and expectations and there's fucking makeup. i could never wrap my head around makeup!! not even for gender reasons, it's just this whole culture i don't understand. trying to grasp makeup feels like being a street urchin at an extremely exclusive high end restaurant crying because i don't know what fork to use and they won't let me eat with my hands. my seventh grade classmates tried to help me be girl by taking me shopping for nice clothes and mascara and i couldn't even wear it for a week. not only do you have to go through the intricate rituals of application but you have to remove it at the end of the day??? and everyone acts as if this arcane knowledge is something inherent to girlhood that you're just born knowing and feel naturally inclined to do??? i don't understand!!! i don't understand!!!!! people treated me as if i was being rebellious and making a statement but i just do not understand all the powders and inks and pencils and gunks and creams and brushes!! they feel bad against my face and i'll flinch from anything getting too close to my eyes. it doesn't matter how many offers for help i get or how many tutorials there are, i never wanted this for myself! i shouldn't have to do this! i can be a person without it just fine if you let me!
watching anyone trying to learn how to do makeup from scratch is like watching someone learning a new language. if you think it's hard it's because it is hard and don't let them tell you it's not, just because they've been speaking it for a long time
#'you don't need a full face just five products-'#and every step will feel like a thousand knives#ultimately my relationship to makeup has very little to do with whatever my gender turned out to be. it's an absolutely baffling practice#u dont gotta wear makeup if u dont wanna!!!!!!!#but i also know society can be hostile to people who dont wear makeup when theyre percieved as someone who Should#so its not like im gonna tell anyone what they should or shouldnt do

yknow what i hate so much? when i technically Could do something that requires more spoons like reading or watching something that im not familiar with, but i know i Should give my brain a rest and read or watch the most mind-numbingly familiar and low spoons things i can find instead
#frustrating!!!! :( i think i threw myself into a flare by doing too much yesterday#now i shouldnt spend the spoons if i dont absolutely have to bc i need to recover. but it’s soooooo annoying#0#chronic pain#chronic fatigue#disabled#disability

I hate the stretch lines in the front of Curly's uniform because that means the devs rushed to make a model in like a month or so and thought "They gotta at least know he has huge knockers, gotta know he's got back pain." Cause like what is the thematic importance of his tits having overhang?
What responsibility is that representing? Breast reduction? It shows an inherent greed in his character due to the excess and heshouldletmeholdone and that he clearly is blinded cause if he tries to look down his damn ladder all he's seeing is his own cleavage.
#this is my curly slander post ig#disclaimer i need you to understand i see all fictional men i like as like butches Curly is no exception#but like they didnt need to add that many polygons to his chest like its unnessary and honestly a little mean he already has so many things#to handle and you expect him to hold those boys up like that just aint right this is like something so stupid but i know you can tell im#having strong feelings about it cause like what was the point why did they survive the fucking crash it has to be a injoke at this point#with the devs it shouldnt make me this mad im turning into a misandrist but only towards large chested men#mouthwashing#curly mouthwashing#shitpost#suggestive#ig because this is just about his chest but like also they made him objectively pretty for no reason like yeah like ideal man and work ig#but they went over the extra mile like i have a right to be mad they did that much for a model we see canonically for like two seconds its#crazy actually how little we see of curly pre crash because we also lose his physical movements to help characterize him the way we see#body language with the other characters and how it gives way to their struggles and personalities and sentiments in certain moments#like all he does and how he emotes is stifled by the fact we always play as him until the last moments where he takes over to try and save#the ship and crew and even right before that the scene is so wrought with tension we cant tell what that look he gave Jimmy meant due to#the limitations of the models and how stiff Curly is like was it fear acceptance denial we dont know enought about how he acts himself#to tell and then everything else is charaterized by what Jimmy had done to where we dont really just get to see Curly as himself like Anya#and Swansea and Daisuke we have no idea how theyd act in a regular moment outside of a few glimpses and even then it is them doing#their jobs like grrrr we hate an unreliable narrator but also its the fact jimmy clearly does not interact with them or try to outside of#his position as copilot and then captain harkening back to the entire capitlist view of utility and how he views all of them as useless eve#Curly which fandom tangent the fandom also tends to do to Curly as they base every trait on what they think he failed to do as Captain#between Jimmy and Anya when the QnAs kinda make him out to be a rather open and willing person but still someone who isnt like a push over#just thinking of QnA three where it mentions hes very open to trying new things and you need to be an open minded person to open urself up#to failure like that and ig this is just the weird view that Curly needs to learn that or that theres redemption he needs personality wise#verses healing and learning from trauma like idk its the idea that people assume he did abosultely nothing when the games points out direct#and throught parallels he was taking actions its just wasnt enough and an over focus on absolute inaction vs ineffective methods used to#tackle the issues and themes the game grapples with plus wanting someone to take the blame and have to make it up to Anya even tho#i think it would mean nothing from Curly because she saw his efforts and would be disappointed it wasnt enough but the idea she would#disregard the attempts or not acknoweldge Jimmy as the epicenter compared ot Curly is weird and too focused on someone

i think you can be as critical about the venezuelan opposition and maría corina and edmundo as you want but arent venezuelans allowed to choose for themselves even if the options arent perfect? are you willing to justify electoral fraud and police brutality, class inequality, bad management of resources, lack of maintenance of the country, breach of the law, lack of investment in health services and education etc etc just because the person doing it is someone you like or because you don't like the other option? are people at fault for wanting something different?
#i don't like idolizing politicians either in fact i dont think anyone should#a government official being good to the people would literally just be doing their job#but there are reasons for how much people love maría corina as of now and it's because shes one of the few members of the opposition#that has not completely given up on us or just sold themselves to the regime#from the days of chavez and when nobody would pay attention to her or think she would accomplish anything#people are allowed to have hope#and im very sick of this tendency to dehumanize other countries(particularly those from the third world)#and act like they cannot defend themselves or choose for themselves#when they try they are told not to and to let others do the job. how fair is that?? who are you helping?#if maría corina and edmundo fail us it would just turn into what we are already living through. we know it already#if they keep their promises and things go well or at least better then yay!#but we know what's going to happen under maduro#the country will keep deteriorating until everybody either dies or leaves#or people will keep living miserably#i thought people liked the idea that you shouldnt have to work out of your ass to have your neccesities covered!#well people are exploited here on the daily and don't have access to half things they need#let alone pursuing their dreams. theyre not allowed to dream#it's either we die or we don't die for me#i want to see my country healing thats all. you think maduro will give us that? absolutely not#it's always like this with countries that others view as just a land of natural resources or as a land of dumb poor people to project onto#just allow us to see where this goes. it's what the people chose. respect it.#oh ok vent over#Venezuela#this is very messily written i havent had breakfast yet#not to mentionnnnnnnn people on other places know what it's like having to choose for the lesser evil but when vzla does it it's wrong. lol#chavismo is not going to save anyone other than the regime. even chavistas themselves die under it#a lot of us were born under chavismo and want to see life outside of it

i guess it is a given that i am probably not an average or standard user of websites but whenever tumblr staff says something about the website being hard to use, or refusing to let us have options to turn something on/off in the menu because "it's adding bloat and too many complicated options for new users" i just get so confused. like what?
i love settings. i love little toggleable sliders. the first thing i do whenever i get any account or device is go into the options to make it exactly how i like. i spent 2 hours setting up my firefox to perfection. i have memorized and examined every tumblr feature multiple times. getting a new phone or laptop is like a fun 2 week long process of arranging settings and personalization and notifications. it baffles me that tumblr wants to REMOVE options. i love options!!
#when i got my new work laptop i tried to pin settings to the taskbar and the IT guy looked at me like i was stupid#very critically too. he was like why do you need that. folks only use that when they're poking around; you shouldnt need to ever access it#and i didnt have the heart to tell him that i just absolutely do poke around in settings a lot. also....why WOULDN'T i need to access it?#anyway who else out here likes BUTTONS!#TOGGLEABLE SWITCHES! PERSONALIZED THEMES! MATCHING YOUR WALLPAPER WITH UR CLOCK COLOR! :D

Huzzah! Another collaboration with the lovely @korruptbrekker! This time we did an alternate version of the classic sketch swap. Further explanation, sketch, and palette under the cut. Open the image for higher resolution
Huge thanks to Brekker for doing this with me! Go check out his piece, it's AMAZING!
Okay so, for this challenge we did a spiced up version of the classic sketch swap where you simply finish the other's sketch. However, to add some extra challenge to it, we decided whe had to sketch something with an extreme perspective and had to pick a palette of six colours the other had to use.
And so, Brekker sent me this sketch and palette:
So much attitude, so much Eros. I can hear Viktor's wobbly knees out of frame. And the colour palette is WILDLY outside my usual comfort zone as anyone familar with my art can tell. I was in for a rough ride I tell you. But I'm pretty happy with what I ended up making.
#if youd caught me a few hours before now i wouldve been ready to throw this entire thing in the bin and restart#and then i did the rendering and like magic it started looking like not shit???? wild how that works#am i entirely happy? far from#was this supposed to be challenging and therefore i shouldnt expect to make something at my usual level? absolutely#i do still kind of want to murder the green shoes or the magenta shirt because i hate them together but i ran out of colours#curse you limited palette#eh anyway im pretty satisfied#ANYWAY GO CHECK OUT BREKKERS ITS SO CUTE I CANNOT#AAAAAAAA#yuri on ice#yuri on ice fanart#fanart#art#arom antix art#arom antix#katsuki yuuri#collab

Rereading Flashback for my fanfic is getting me. Flashback is the SLOWEST book to read through but…SIGH… Fitz and Sophie were kinda cute (very cute together). Fitz kinda (by kinda I mean he did) tore down this scene
#am I upset he didn’t keep the same energy in Legacy? oh absolutely#and you guys could point fingers at Sophie and you guys could point fingers at Fitz. whatever who cares.#dating is about learning about each other. sometimes when dating you realize you just don’t fit with someone and it’s too hard.#too hard when it SHOULDNT be too hard. they’re children. they’re still learning to grow and they’re learning how to love.!#I think it was realistic of Shannon to write Sophie and Fitz like that. it made their relationship feel real.#it was messy and they both wanted it to work so badly but it just didn’t. that’s what I liked about their relationship.#it wasn’t all just negatives and it wasn’t all just positives. they had good moments and bad ones.#Ngl I was sad to see their relationship turn sour as quickly as it did in Legacy.#kotlc#keeper of the lost cities#kotlc fandom#kotlc thoughts#kotlc sophie#kotlc keefe#keefe sencen#kotlc fitz#fitz vacker#kotlc biana

Are you a proshipper?
what if the world was made of pudding
#sorry ive been asked this exact thing like 4 times and i answer it differently everytime#i dont CARE i dont CARE what people JERK IT TO but that lines up EXACTLY with the definition of proshipper so i fucking GUESS#where im from its called being normal. its internet etiquette to not seek out shit that piss you off. u dont have to care i promise#or call me a freak and block me for the both of us. curate your online experience <- thats also a proship ideal ewwww#unless this is one of those who thinks proship means darkship? in this case that still depends on your definition of darkship#going by mine - u still shouldnt be surprised when i have a fav ship like garyjohn. but no i dont think i like anything more fucked up#sorry i went in tangents but theres absolutely much more i wanna say. its 2:30 am rn and i dont trust myself enough tho.
