the thing i’ve come to realize having been in this space for roughly 13 years now is i can never leave. it’s just one of those inevitabilities. you can take the minecraft server from the kid but not the kid from the minecraft server or whatever

I do actually think they aren’t technically immortal, I think that the ghosts can “move on”, we see Ray do it. It’s just that Yomiel basically becomes a wraithful and vengeful ghost, which makes it impossible to move on. This wouldn’t be a problem for Sissel. The only problem could potentially be the body, but you can just take out the Temsik. Basically I don’t think the ghosts are truly immortal, and Sissel will probably “move on.” With his family.

Also it is a mostly happy ending, things *are* vastly improved, even with the whole immortality thing, it’s sad, but Sissel is still in a better position to Yomiel comparatively.

yeah fair enough

the only thing i worry about is how someone's going to know to take the temsik out

some more ghost rider sketches, version i guess i wanted to draw some bones,

including a partial prototype of whatever the hell the Rider has going on underneath his skin-suit (which might need more leather 'muscles' but. whatever), a theoretical endpoint of how dead Robbie could get in my verse, which. unlikely? extremely. but fun to draw, and a line-up of Robbie, Lisa, and Gabe

in theory, Lisa's sense of style was inspired by @wazzappp 's post of Claire's fashion Lisa, but, well, outfit design eludes me. so. brightly colored vague y2k vibes are. the best i got

ffxiv garlemald discourse is so funny because people will go "ugh people just cant stand it when things aren't black and white" and then you look at how the empire are portrayed in stormblood and shadowbringers and its like hm. that seems like a pretty intense and accurate display of violent imperialism to me! Wow I wonder why people in this day and age may find it hard to feel sympathy for them or even hate them on principal. god its such a mystery.

the games like 50/50 to me on how it tackles these themes because I actually like the garlemald arc in EW, I think it has a lot of horrific and powerful scenes depicting how self destructive fascist propaganda and beliefs are, but I also think it doesn't go far enough on some fronts. the garleans' xenophobia is most notably and obstacle to getting them to accept the contingent's help, which is what they're there to do,

but there's never an admission of harm from any garleans on the uuuuuuuuh massive amount of war crimes the nations around them are still suffering from they're just kind of like "we misjudged you...but you actually wanted to help us all along" like yeah thats great now can we get you all some deprogramming because you keep talking about returning to your prime and glory days and I think we need to unpack some stuff you really SHOULDNT return to. im not even really talking about EW proper but the patches where things are a bit more chilled out and people are recovering.

It feels like they wanted to have their critique of imperialism and also have things end with the beauty of human connection and reaching out and these things just don't mesh well because hey a lot of your modern day audience is not gonna like having to treat people yelling xenophobic things at the cast and your character with kid gloves after you showed them hours and hours of the awful things these people's beliefs have done. especially in the present day hoo boy.

I got more time to consider tabling at that convention btw but the recommendation that I got was to have variety so not just prints but maybe also buttons or keychains and stickers (which yeah that makes sense) but to me designing or drawing designs for these objects for the purpose of sale feels disingenuous, that’s not why I draw and I don’t have any particular desire to design any of those which makes me unmotivated . like I don’t feel at all inspired. quite the opposite

also, I am highly doubtful that I’ll actually enjoy it as in tabling at a convention so then manufacturing all of this would be a waste also

and the cost of getting there would be astronomical. because everyone wants to travel to northern Norway during summer and this convention is in August so there is no such thing as a cheap flight. and. they’re already selling out

oh, and lmao so I was told the reason I was invited was because they’re trying to have some variation or diversity in terms of stands so they didn’t want 15 Gojo print art stands which I understand, but maybe I’m not the right person the fandoms that I draw fanart for are kinda niche. not the most recent ones but. primarily.

Oh this explains exactly why I hated Mean Girls:

Because jesus christ NO!!! YOU DON'T HAVE TO BE LIKE THAT o_O;;;

My family moved around a lot so I transferred schools a lot lol, often in the middle of the school year too. Thanks to that I experienced a wide variety of social dynamics. In the worst, most hierarchic and 'kill or be killed' schools, I was a weirdo outsider, sometimes with literally no friends (which was fine; I knew that wouldn't last forever, bc we were probably going to move again in a couple years). In other schools where there was much less hierarchy and performance, and much more solidarity and camaraderie, I had a lot of friends and was part of many social groups.

Is your school, workplace, family etc. shit? Well, it's not like that everywhere!

You don't have to ruin your life, sell your soul or abandon all morals trying to 'fit in' when the system is shit.

YOU CAN RESIST THE SYSTEM.

thinking abt how all of gevie’s relationships w her friends involve them seeing through each other in some way

[megkuna]

maybe it's bc i'm on the opposite end of this attitude where i feel like, i'm constantly grappling w my capacity to do things that are harmful but there is nothing more frustrating than dealing w ppl who seem themselves as completely incapable of harming others. there was a post i saw abt this the other day that was more in jest making fun of ppl who see themselves as uwu sweethearts but it is so fucking real
