I recently bought an art book on Caspar David Friedrich, whose emotional work stuck with me since I first saw it in a museum years ago. Over the course of a few weeks, I read about his life and at the same time did studies/interpretations of many pieces. It was a really enjoyable and fulfilling project; here's a good lot of them together :)

I was happy to see many people enjoyed Friedrich's work+my interpretations while posting them individually. It took way too long, but I FINALLY set up a print shop for some of these + some other pieces for those who expressed interest. Thank you so much!

sally jackson’s son and his girlfriend are:

a) completely obsessed with each other

b) hormonal teenagers

c) highly trained in stealth

and, like we learned in cotg, percy’s bedroom window opens into the fire escape. any mother’s worst nightmare, except for sally jackson, whose son went to hell, so she’s probably fine in the grand scheme of things

hiii i do Hate to like. talk about finances here but I Am in some minor debt that I'd like to nip before it gets unmanageable. I'm lucky enough that, even though i cant work due to my progressing disability, my siblings help me with most of my like. Life expenses. But medical bills are my own. I'm signed up for all the financial aid i Can, but medications and materials are expensive and catching up to me.

I'm not able to work a job and near a year into my first disability claim processing. Right now I'm a little over 150 USD behind. Im more than happy to do commissions, which start at 20 USD !! I also have a ko-fi, which I cant offer anything in return for unfortunately, though i would dearly appreciate it. I am not going to claim i should be any high priority if youre going to help someone, but I'm very grateful regardless as these are my only sources of income right now.

but even if you can just share this around i would be unendingly thankful 🙏 my meds and aids are the only things keeping me functioning enough to be able to draw still in the first place. thank you 💕💝

will being “good at hiding”, the ud being a mirror of hawkins so he was Right There but also not. how he likely only survived so long because he was good at running and hiding from the demogorgon, and of course everyone was looking for him but if he didn’t try to reach out and communicate with joyce then he maybe wouldn’t have made it out at all. how at first he tried to defend himself but it was futile, maybe he couldn't have even done it anyways. the clone of his body that joyce immediately knew wasn't will.

will coming back wrong and feeling like a freak and being targeted at school, the scene of him walking down the hallway while everyone looks at him. he only opens up to mike at first and singles him out as not making him feel like "even more of a freak". he hides things from joyce until he cant because it all goes so wrong. how he tries to run and hide from it but its when he tries to fight back and stand his ground that it gets him. literally being possessed, his entire self being taken over, "what happens when he cant remember anything? when there's nothing else there? what happens when my boy is gone", and how joyce, jonathan and mike can bring him back just enough for him to help save them, even if saving them could kill him. and how none of them let that happen and they force the mf out to get will back.

in s3 when he's there but basically invisible, like a twisted parallel of s1. he's right there but having to still try to be noticed, and this time it ends with him destroying castle byers. the same castle byers that he hid in in the ud before the demogorgon found him, and which the memory of building with jonathan helped bring him back. castle byers with its 'all friends welcome' sign but joyce needed a password to be let in. how he has a 'no trespassing' sign on his bedroom door.

and just everything about dnd and "you shouldn't like things just because people tell you to" and how he doesn't conform to mike and lucas's 'normal teenage boy' shtick and how he tries to be his normal, but its just different to what they're doing. he destroys castle byers in part because he feels too seen, "what did you think that we were gonna sit around in the basement all day and play games for the rest of our lives" and yet he says yes, to mikes face. he gives away his dnd set but promises its not possible to join another party, and he doesn't.

he dances with a girl at the snowball bc he doesn't know what to do and mike is there pushing him to. in lenora he does a presentation on alan turing in front of, presumably, his whole class.

in s4 how his outfits just make him merge into the settings, almost camouflaged. how he doesn't reach out to mike despite wanting to stay in contact with him because he cant risk being too seen, because he doesn't want to lose their friendship. "sometimes its hard to say how you really feel", and then giving mike the painting under the guise of it being from el, masking feelings that are only his with el's name, trying so hard to express his own feelings but at the same time divorcing himself from them. jonathan immediately clocking it and for probably the first time ever, someone is truly seeing him and telling him directly that they love him no matter what. because they know, they know and its okay. how "hakwins isn't the same without him" and "god we need will" and his friends have his drawings on their walls and and and.

just. how hiding is the most integral part of wills arc and how everything is linked back to him hiding. and how sometimes its necessary to survive but that doesn't make it hurt less. and how he has so much courage and he's so true to himself but tries so hard to be both seen and not seen, because fuck man its complicated being who he is. and just. how other people's love for him keeps bringing him back, can bring him out of hiding. yeah. idk.

i love how both on here and twitter people get like the slightest maybe idea that the site is maybe possibly in some alternate reality going to someday go down and they start writing the dissertations and the "heres where else you can find me" posts without providing like any context whatsoever. and then you go and dig up the context that nobody's providing and it's just like some men in an office saying "site isnt profitable". i dunno. Like im not saying it doesnt suck but my christ why are you all running for the lifeboats

Most of the time I think armys deserve more embarrassing than this because of the way they let Tkkrs take over their fandom. I mean 80% is filled with Tkkrs, the same breed that's putting shame on their name every opportunity they get, the same ones who have harassed multiple brands asking them if TK are wearing same couple shit and when they get no as an answer they harasse them, then they go around harassing so many models calling them cosplayers, then you have them harassing people that were with taehyung in paris asking them if taehyung is gay where those ppl have to put on stories asking to let be free from that shit, then you have them harassing umi over literally nothing all because they believed her using purple and green means she's a tkkr and later on she used Jennie's song (literally one of the most popular idols) and replied to a instagram user who happened to be a taennie (as if everyone will even know what that means and what pfp one is using) where umi literally had to delete everything and make a video apologizing lol and has to face all the racism. I'm sure taehyung and jungkook would be proud of this according to taekookers and armys.

And what did armys do? Lumped up all of them into "shippers" and "y'all" shit because they're never calling out Tkkrs by their names. Generalizing all shippers when no one's being as vile as Taekookers so yes armys kinda deserve more shame as fans. Never forgetting this same fandom catering to Tkkrs when taennie video was circulating, they all forget in that instance that Taekookers are jm anti. A fandom where jm's antis are welcomed and he's often downplayed deserves nothing more than public shaming. waiting for the day tkkrs Embarasses armys on national television (and if it's done by jkkrs i can guarantee you they'll say "jikookers" unlike for Tkkrs where it's always "shippers" and "y'all").

Also Taekooker trying to find hints and getting Happy with her using purple and green is same as jikookers getting happy and finding hints when jimin's dad uses anything purple and yellow, because even jikookers forgets that the purple is for BTS and armys and not for jungkook. Idk why shippers are this abnormal.

I also want ARMYs to be shamed and embarrassed because of tkkrs more often because apparently that’s the only thing that will get some of them to move. Remember after the taennie Paris walk when tkkrs were crashing out and had some giant Twitter space where they were attacking Jennie (and Jimin too, I think) + making tons of tweets calling her disgusting names? It circulated all over stantwt and ARMYs were getting dragged BAD. In response, for the first time ever, they actually called out tkkrs and were trying to do something about them - not because of what they were saying (they had already been saying all of that about Jimin for years) - but because they were embarrassed. It was also Blinks who managed to take down a tkkr account that had been on report pages for months (years maybe?). After the dust settled they backtracked and started pushing tkkr narratives about the whole thing being fake again, so it didn’t last, but it was still the only time I’ve personally seen them properly move - and it wasn’t to protect Jimin, but their egos.

So yeah, I hope they DO get more and more embarrassed by tkkrs (in a way that doesn’t embarrass or harm the members) but at this point I think it would take a lot, because like you pointed out there are already sooooooo many examples of them harassing people, embarrassing the fandom, and ARMYs just saying “they aren’t ARMYs” (not true) while looking the other way or even actively covering up for them. A good portion of them don’t even care or feel sorry for Umi, some are still mad at her actually. And they’re blaming “taennie” shippers, as if being associated with Jennie is some terrible and harmful thing, calling it "defamation rumors" when TH and Jennie were clearly dating at some point - it’s just mental. I expect it from tkkrs but the overall fandom entirely throwing out their common sense to deny it is just… super weird and has led to nothing but negative consequences.

Another recent example would be when solos + tkkrs were harassing JMs dad totally out of nowhere (part of their reaction to Who, + their harassment campaign in the lead up to AYS) and non JM-biased ARMYs were just silent about it… UNTIL it got to the point media picked up on it and JMs dad ended up deleting all his posts related to JM. And you know what ARMYs did? Blamed MHJ 🥴 ignored the actual issue. AND THEN the same group of people harassed JM’s dad again only a few months later. And it was so bad that he had to close his IG comments. Wow, who would have seen that coming? 🥴

It makes me soooo mad because we literally can see what the problem is, and we literally know that it's going to keep happening unless we do something about it, but nah they want to fixate on fanwars and obsess over the whole MHJ/NewJean’s thing. It annoys me because ARMYs are fully capable of shutting these people down if they cared. They’re an extremely organized and active fandom that is literally capable of helping BTS top the most competitive music chart in the world, but you’re telling me that they can’t make a united effort to cut out and shame these people? Isolate them from the larger community and deplatform them? Right.

Anyways, despite all my ranting about it, I don’t linger on all this too much because it is what it is but, and I know I’ve already said this 380138013 times on here already, it’ll always be the reason why I feel bitter towards this fandom and I’ll never feel fully comfortable in it. There’s really no excuse for the way they let things get this bad - and like you said, one of the biggest reasons for this is because literally 80% of them ARE tkkrs and they don’t want to lose their fic and fanart and all that. So.

& yeah, agree about the colors 😭 IDK why so many people forget that purple is also the color used for BTS, like VERY aggressively used for BTS. People can have fun ofc and have their own thoughts and theories but it’s definitely not something to take super seriously, and I hate when some jkkrs start delving into a similar conspiracy style thinking as tkkrs. There’s definitely no need to do all that with jkk. Also I just hope that jkkrs sort of stop posting about Jimin’s dad in general considering everything that has happened. There’s no need to involve him in anything when it just brings him hate and harassment.
