This shit Is horrifying, you don't even have the mental capacity to fucking read, you've gotta have a fucking ai summarize it for you;
If I recommend you a book and you tell me yeah I've read it and then tell me this?
You're not a friend to me and I'd never speak to you again, it's insanity this is what it's come to.
I honestly don't care to rant about this, you can't fucking read a book,
this is what it's telling me, you CAN'T read a book, you can't sit your lazy ass down to read a fucking book.
Your attention span is so fucked you can't focus on a book, if you really find it that hard to understand an older book/a classic there are FREE modern English translations online, and even then you can go to places like TUMBLER, and ask for help!
Even better if I recommend you a book and you feel like it doesn't make sense, I'll fucking read it to you, I'll explain every part of it to you as long as you aren't using that bullshit,
There are more than enough people willing to help you, and I'm not going to get started on the impacts ai has on the environment/ on the art community as a whole/ ANY COMMUNITY AS A WHOLE!!!
I don't care if you use ai knowing that it's messing with the environment or that you generate photos from stolen art that people spent hours and hours on, blood, sweat, and tears (NEWS FLASH, I DO!) but don't come to me with this bullshit, you doing this tells me that you obviously NEED to read that book, plus if you do this you don't have a say on literally anything/ any arguments concerning said book/books, BECAUSE YOU DIDNT FUCKING READ IT.

For the art asks 4 and 16??
4. Fav character/subject that's a bitch to draw
Dick grayson is such a cunt to draw bc hes meant to be really pretty with really pretty hair and I just find that really difficult to draw / convey
16. Something you are good at but don't really have fun doing
Realism - I can't stand realism the reason I didn't do a level art was bc I knew I'd have to spend another 2 years doing realism if I did but my art teacher was very upset bc I got the highest grade in gcse art
#ask#anon#ask game#we had to do realism in gcse art#bc the graders would mark you down for anything else#but yeah at the end of gcses all our art from the past two years was put up on display for the whole school to come and see#and a couple months ago i was talking to one of my little sister's friends#who was in my secondary at the same time as me#and she was asking me why i didnt do a level art bc she saw my art during the display thing#and she was like you literally had the best art in the whole year#and i just said i cant stand realism#it took me so long to complete one picture#i had to be constantly looking at my reference picture#it felt very constricting#and bc i was just copying what i saw and not bothering to actually think about the art i was making#it didnt feel like i was getting any better at art

i feel like im not making any sense but does anyone else feel like there are stories that let u run with them and ones that spell everything out for you
#im reading that post that says artists are directors of audience reaction and not its dictator:#'you cannot guarantee that everyone viewing your work will react as you are trying t make them react. a good artist knows that this is what#allows work to breath. by definition you cannot have art where the viewer brings nothing to the table ... this is why you have to let go of#the urge to plainly state in text exactly how you think the work should be interpreted ... its better to be misinterpreted sometimes than#to talk down to your audience. you wont even gain any control that way; people will still develop their opinions no matter what you do#im thinking abt this again cuz i was thinking maybe the thing that lets adventure time work so well the way it does is cuz it doesnt#take itself too seriously that it gives the audience enough room to fuck with subtext and then fuck with them back yknow. i think it was#mentioned somewhere that they werent even planning to run with the postapocalyptic elements that are hinted in the show but changed their#mind after the one off with the frozen businessmen and dominoed into marcy and simons backstory. on the other side there are stories that#explain too much to let the story speak for itself and i think it ends up having to do more with the crew trying to lead ppl in a certain#direction than expand on what they have and i see a lot of this with miraculous. like when interviews and tweets are used as word of god in#arguments and it becomes a little stifling to play around with it knowing the creator can just interject. u can say its the crews effort to#engage with its audience but it feels more like micromanaging. and none of this is to say there ISNT room for stories that spell things out#theyre just suited for different things. if sesame street tried abstract approaches to themes and nuance itd be counterproductive#a lot of things fly over my head so i need help picking things apart to get it- but it doesnt have to be from the story itself. ive picked#picked up or built on my own interpretations listening to other ppl share their thoughts which creates conversation around the same thing#sometimes stories will spell things out for you without being so obvious abt it that it feels like its woven into the text. my fav example#for this might be ATLA using younger characters as its main cast but instead of feeling like its dumbed down for kids to understand why war#is bad its framed from a childs point of view so younger audiences can pick up on it by relating to the characters. maybe an 8 year old#wont get how geopolitics works but at least they get 'hey the world is a little more complicated than everyone vs. fire nation'. same for#steven universe bc its like theyre trying to describe and put feelings into words that kids might not have so they have smth to start with#especially with the metaphors around relationships bc even if it looks unfamiliar as a kid now maybe the hope is for it to be smth you can#look back to. thats why it feels like these shows grew up with me.. instead of saving difficult topics for 'when im ready for it'#as if its preparing me for high school it gave me smth to turn in my hands and revisit again and again as i grow. stories that never#treated u as dumb all along. just someone who could learn and come back to it as many times as u need to. i loved SU for the longest time#but i felt guilty for enjoying it hearing the way ppl bash it. bc i was a kid and thought other ppl understood it better than me and made#feel bad for leaning into the message of paying forward kindness and not questioning why steven didnt punish the diamonds or hold them#accountable. but im rewatching it now and going oh. i still love this show and what it was trying to teach me#yapping#diary

honestly cant stand how technically important demise is and yet how he doesnt actually matter or exist in peoples minds as a character, the only thing that matters is his stupid "curse" thing and its the only thing why he will ever be brought up, theres never really any thought around him that isnt related to the "cuuuurse", otherwise he basically doesnt exist in the fandom
to some extent its understandable given how little he actually is in the game but it still makes me sad and a little frustrated imo he shouldnt be treated like soemthing so unimportant given hes involved with the literal start of the timeline
and worst of all is how he and ganondorf make each other worse, like their link is completely deniable yet its like more often than not treated like gan is to demise what zelda is to hylia, but even that isnt used interestingly no, its only ever to write off gan as "well, hes just a demon, demons need no motives or character, they are jsut evil" WHICH IS SO BORING, and people will be HAPPY about that??? they go yippie gan is jsut an evil demon yaaay like the fuck???
it goes around to that other post i made about how not wanting a better written gan is wanting everything to be worse, bc a better written villain is a better written everything and there is only winning in that
demise specifically is just a sore spot for me since hes my blorbo, and the way even gan fans hate him for introducing the "cuuurse" thing just makes it hurt doubly, i get why, still its just so .. man i wish BOTH gan and demise were allowed to be characters, at least gan was a character at some point, demise has nothing ;__;
#ganondoodles talks#zelda#sudden demise feelings go brrrrrr#whenever he does get mentioned by anyone i cant even go “demise mention!!”#bc the only thing that he gets mentioned for is the damn curse thing#which i dont care about and actually hate bc its a big reason why so many gan discussions are outright impossible now#and is the reason he doesnt get any other thought than that#yeehaw lets just shift the blame around#bc thats better#to fix it we should invent another literal satan guy who is actually controlling demise#thats like how it went with him and gan#its just so BORING#stop shifting the evil incarnate thing around that doesnt solve its problem#it just shoves it onto another character#grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr#and he never got ANY merch#he didnt even get a watercolor painting#no#he has ONE concept art#they jsut drew buff dude and gave him fire hair and put no more thought into it#drives me up a wall

thinkin abt redesigning the if set cuz im not a big fan of the outfits.. i already thought of one for haruka actually-
#project sekai#pjsk#proseka#prsk#the art in artical gets used#i think grey fits better with the vibe of the song more than black ngl#i get where they were doing with the painful hope = soldier thing but it really clashes with the song...#i dont plan on changing the hairstyles bc i dont see anything wrong with them#kiritani haruka#haruka kiritani#fuck i should finish my knight haruka drawing#i will get to it#eventually#i feel the soldier thing couldve worked better if they didnt like#school-uniformized it#if that makes any sense#haruka deserves a trench coat#ive rambled for too long ill shut up

got to see the total eclipse in person!!! heres some art commemorating that! cuz getting to watch 2 celestial bodies make out sloppy style was inspiring what can i say, also it was just rlly beautiful and cool and amazing to get to see ghg- but also! its like?? basically the moon finally getting the suns undivided attention... and thats got some vibes to it,, some energies... that i could not ignore lol.
#original art#eclipse#solar eclipse 2024#total eclipse#doodles#original#artists on tumblr#ok sorry these r probably kinda sloppy looking. 1 paintings very difficult.#and 2. my brain wouldnt let me work on other shit before finishing these but i have other shit i NEED TO DO#so im deciding they r now finished i dont wanna spend any more time on them lol#i think they turned out ok tho#i recorded the process of me drawing them too so#there might..be a speedpaint. possibly#last time i said a picture would get a speedpaint was like 2 years ago and it didnt get one cuz my computer hated me lol#but! i have a new computer now...#if i find the time / energy to make that speedpaint.. then there might be a speedpaint#we shall see lol#i kno the height difference i gave them isnt acurate at all to actual sizes. the sun is bigger#but... this is what i wanted to draw gghgh-#if it makes u feel any better i did come up w a headcanon while drawing that they can just shapeshift freely n be whatever heights they wan#right now the moons just taller#cuz i said so#also sorry they kinda resemble my tak and gaz a bit… that wasn’t intentional… I just wanted the moon to be gothy and the sun be spiky#but#they kinda do look a bit like them ghg-

I hand you a doodle and then go back to dying of the plague
#keese draws#oc art#oc#ocs#furry#furry art#furry oc#Im sick 😔#I can tell because all my joints are hurting instead of just my knees lol#which actually is strange since usually when Im sick the first sign is my nose being super duper runny#but I can actually breath just fine if not better than usual rn wow#but yeah say hi to antinio theyre a design I got a couple months ago I think#theyre a part of a new ish story I made around the same time that surrounds the other escaped patients of the facility pent escaped from#pent didnt actually go with them tho partially because none of them like her and she doesnt like any of them but mostly because shes more#physically unstable than the others and needs regular goop recharges that kept her camping near the facility until bud and daisy dropped in#but yeah everyone else left together and spent some time wandering before getting lured into the origin place of the goop#this guy is actually quite the unique case among the bunch because they were originally an ocean dweller before they were revived#this basically means they only half understand what everyone else is saying and can't actually talk themself#and also that despite not needing to breath they constantly feel like theyre suffocating and they are generally pretty bitter abt all this#they cant rly go home partially because theyve been dead for too long and mostly because theyd kind of just fall apart in the ocean#even just washing their hands causes their fur and skin to get all slimy#hey they at least have a new bestie even if said bestie is also part of the only half understands everyone party meaning they even less#know how to communicate with eachother since they both speak different languages from eachother#but hey now they can be confused abt whatever the hell applebounce is yelling abt together

every time someone claims they can "always tell" if an author writes fanfiction like it's a mark of shame forever burnt into their soul i think about how naomi novik has a whole career in writing completely typical and well-received fantasy novels and upwards of 95% of the people who pick them up have no idea they're dealing with ms wincest herself
#most fanfiction is bad. most original fiction is also bad.#i am genuinely starting to feel like inability to understand this is a mark of artistic immaturity.#'you won't get better by writing fanfic bc there is no good fanfic' self fulfilling prophecy. also cowardly.#'*i* didn't respect the medium so *i* didnt make an effort so *i* didn't grow as an artist' okay. and the medium is the problem here?#literally just try and see what happens. there's never any good art until someone makes it#i haven't read any of novik's fanfic bc as mentioned above she is ms wincest and writes nothing i'm interested in#but i have read some of her original work and the objective quality of her writing is literally good#almost like the things we perceive as weird or offputting can still take skill to make.....

my controversial opinion is that despite any logic, based mainly on vibes/intuition, that piercings are somehow less permanent and less commitment than tattoos
#like the logic is that technical getting rid of a piercing is less hassle#and you can change jewellery#but heres the thing guys. i would never get a tattoo. bc i dnt believe i could ever put some art on my body that#i wouldn't eventually outgrow and come to hate. and that i would also be somewhat offput by the 'unnaturalness' of it - in a parasite sense#BUT i will stick a dozen pierces of metal thru my ears. I will very rarely change the jewellery.#i will almost never remove any (i say almost bc in college i tried to close my seconds so i could get them redone with better placement)#i left them out for like over 4 months. and they didnt even begin to close. how's that for permanence?#also any time i take out any piercings for a day or whatnot. literally feels like a piece of me is missing. like naked and vulnerable.#so i have a v weird rship with piercings versus tattoos#like i rly rly rly contemplated a tattoo a few years back#and i keep coming back to the idea of sth that honours my cats.#i could never have anything thats generally cats. has to be my cats. all other cats are irrelevant peasants in comparison to my angels#but i also wouldn't want me body to become a memorial. i dont need to be reminded of loss when i look at myself#im now at a struggle point with piercings tho. bc i want more i just cant figure out which ones.#anyway thanks for coming to my ted talk

Vent / taxes shit
Oh, man. I decided that I'd get ahead of things and get all my clothing resales logged into my file for taxes to make things easier in the new year. I see some sales I made, and think that I may still have the receipt for some of these (I save all my receipts lol). ((If I have the receipt for the original purchase, the original amount isn't taxable income, it's something for 'garage sales' as income. So if I bought a $10 shirt, wore it, and sell it for $15 later, then only the new $5 profit is taxable on it. If I resold it for $5, then it wouldn't be taxable since I originally paid $10.)) ((This is not tax or legal advice.))
I manage to find a couple receipts, and it looks like I tossed the older ones last time I sorted them around 2018, or maybe the items were actually a gift when I got it, IDR. Anyway, I find a receipt for one lanyard thing I resold, and I'm like, 'Shit yeah, I sold it for less! Saving a couple bucks!' I sit down to log the amount I paid, and as I'm looking at the receipt I see:
Item 1 ... $x.xx
Item 2 ... $x.xx
Lanyard ... $8.50
Sale B2G1 FREE ... 8.50-
THE FUCKIGN LANYARD WAS THE FREE ITEM ON THE SALE GDI. I SPENT FUCKING HOURS SORTING ALL MY DEPRESSION PURCHASES IN THE CITY TO FIND A MIRACLE RECEIPT FROM FUCKING 2015, ONLY FOR THE RECEIPT TO BE FUCKING USELESS SHSODJWIHWIDHDKW.
#im probably going over the tax limit for this year bc i did pollworking twice so im gonna owe money when taxes are due#so yknow any bits i can save on my resales will make that number less scary for me#so much for being a responsible adult ugh it wouldve been better if i didnt find this one receipt at all tbh lmao#tbh i shouldve just sorted all of them and tossed all the college snack receipts#last time i sorted them was some time in 2018/2019 i think otherwise i wouldve had more#i was already halfway through when i thought i shouldve just sorted them and said fuck it#ughh at least i have the purchases logged and a couple more useful receipts (just small items tho)#just getting the amounts typed in is a big future time saver bc i have a custom bookkeeping sheet in an art program lmao#i really dont want to be reminded about my life in 2018. so many grief/depression purchases. ugh. the receipts took me on a journey#personal#Cori.exe#Post.exe#taxes fucking suck man it always makes me angry going through this shit#maybe im still mad bc i had a rough year and it feels like i was just dealing with taxes bc the one i filed for last year dragged on#anyway lemme just match these receipts if the purchases were this year and then im not touching this till tax time#its just so frustrating im trying to be on top of things and i get nothing worthwhile for my effort lol

why do ppl you barely know or interact with at all think you give a huge fuck about interacting with them?
#yeah bitch i saw you. no i didnt give a fuck. who even are you sdhjfhvgsdvghfsd#we have no interacted enough for me to like. care? about talking to you or noticing you any further than 'ive interacted w that person#before'. but the way you rushed out was funny. nice to know i have that much power 😌#kind of tells me everything i need to know and all that shit about totally not interacting w that one friend group is probably bs#you probably rushed out of there to go talk to them about how you saw me#and yall like to believe lies bc you need to shit on me bc its the only way you can feel an ounce bit better about living a shitty life#and being oppressed. crabs in a bucket type behavior over here.#the only difference is yall somehow for some goddamn unknown reason to me think you're superior to me meanwhile conservatives#throw us all in the same bucket of 'weird' so i really dont think it matters. like i really dont think your attempt to shit on me is going#to change very much of anyones opinion on you...? like ppl are gonna call you weird queer ppl anyways? welcome to the club losers?#anyways keep coping by trying to shit on me but its not gonna make your life better babe. go smoke somethin.#really wild you'd treat another trans person- someone you know irl no less- like a lolcow when yall have 0 legs to stand on like#who do yall think you are that you get to feel this superiority complex? im begging to know.#like idk if yall know this but while you're desperately clawing to feel better than me my conservative brother is lumping us all together#as crazy dumb easily manipulated trans people like i promise no amount of trying to appease cis people by trying to come off as one of#the Good and Normal trans people is going to work for you and also you'll be dumped in the trash as soon as that totally weirder#person is out of the picture. like when im gone you're gonna be the weird ones babe so.#maybe find a more productive use of your time. perhaps a hobby.#and then maybe some day yall can have made as much art as i have and have as big of a following as me too. k? 💖#which isnt like a whole lot but im sure as fuck more known than any of you....................................... . . . .

i hate hazbin because the writing is all over the place and the fact they market what it is as a queer and progressive show pisses me off, you hate it because the art style has angles and that one guy has animal ears. we are not the same
#there are some design features i dislike but the preexisting art style they chose is fairly well executed#and the fact they chose that art style is admirable. its just that there are a few problems with that style but they work around it#however im not sure the same can be said about the writing#i think it doesnt fit the art style and what its supposed to represent. they gentrified the art style into being less queer#for a lack of better terms. you can tell im not a writer bc of how shitty i am at describing this#and theres a sliver of my soul that worries the writing is also some avant garde stuff only advanced writers get but.. im not sure#in any case i personally dont like it that much except for sir pentious and that one angel dust comic from years back#everything else is just messed up. unexplained and convoluted and doesnt feel like its building to anything#but seriously i was just at the pride parade trying to talk to literally anyone since 90% of my friends are online#after one of my groups went home early bc their heads started hurting from the music (and i didnt text that one other person bc i got shy)-#i had only one choice: the guy i met on lesbo night that seemed to know everybody and he introduced me to his friend whos into hazbin hellu#we both saw the show but when the friend left we were like yeah meh. but HE was like yeah i dont like how angular it is and i dislike horro#therefore: hazbin is cringe AND I WAS LIKE HUH#and then he added yea some people say those furries are cringe but not me haha. MY GUY hazbin.. is too queer for you?#bro you carried the transmasc bear flag for your queer only sports team and you know 99% of the cool hair people in the bar we went to#and hazbin is too queer for you. please. please.#i hope he doesnt use his tumblr anymore or at least wont tumblr search hazbin XDDD if u do sorry for dragging u a bit and also ur cute
