a piece for my art history class [tags for info]
#GAHRG im so normal about this one#the theme was “i am great” and we had to basically boost our ego while in the style of an artistic avant garde#i chose art nouveau for this piece :]#i make art because it connects me to humanity past present and future#making art is in humanity's instict. i am a result of all that people knowledge practices and moments#and that i represent with the “cosmic” theme. its the universe#the universe loves me and i love the universe#theres a lot of symbolism as well. narcissus flowers are the most obvious#the laurel wreath and the peacock feathers represent pride and glory#theres a total of 9 white stars in the piece a number considered the “perfect” number for being the highest digit#and some ivy at the top to bring it all together “connection”#this piece ended up being very important to me. i printed it out and have it framed in my room lol#yeag#my art#illustration#digital art#artists on tumblr

People findinging out that antisemitism does, in fact, victimize people
#jumblr#jewish politics#antisemitism tw#nothing is more instantly frustrating than the 'jews just want to victimize themselves!' thing#yes actually. bigotry victimizes people. that's why it's called bigotry#honestly this is just me venting about this because i see this way too much#it's even more confusing how much i see it from 'leftists'. you sound worse than my conservative family#it's less that leftism is a set of principles to some but rather that it is an ego-boost i think#it's the aethetic of being a Good Moral Person without any of the work#you won't have to make any uncomfortable reckonings with your own pitfalls#you don't need to worry about what Actual Inclusion looks like because that's not the appeal of leftism#the appeal of leftism is how it props you up#i think in this case this is less a horseshoe theory moment rather it's just that people just...#don't care about the principles they say they have adopted because aethetics are a very attractive set of values#and the people who are hurt most by this is everyone else. it's the jews who won't make a stop in entire cities because they are unsafe#also to make this emphatically clear: antisemitism victimizes people (primarily jews)#this does NOT mean that i am saying someone is like... essentially a victim or they are Cursed or whatever else#recognizing that someone can be victimizes doesn't mean that someone is by character/nature a victim

the way you are never not talking to a weird girl who’s obsessed with you…… goals
it's extremely flattering but also lowkey so tiresome i swearrrr. like if i was an interesting person around them it would be one thing cause sure you get obsessed with a fascinating personality who's also hot that checks out. but im starting to think it's pheromones or something cause i really behave as basic as possible around people i don't know well so who tf knows
#but yeah it really does boost my ego. and also they're all so HOTTTTTT#*by tiresome i just mean i find it very exhausting to make small talk or have social interactions with people idk or idc about lol#like i promise this is not a pearls to the swine moment. im very grateful but also extremely low-effort

we all know that Goku and Vegeta's foil in terms of their divine transformations is literally just Freud's Id vs Ego, right
Like how id is raw instinct with no particular pattern and ego is the conscious command over one's instincts
like how Goku's body moves on its own without any conscious input, and Vegeta still has complete and distinctly conscious autonomy while flooded with immense power he has no experience controlling
like we must have talked about this, right? as a family?
#those chapters are several years old I assume this has been brought up#like instinct and ego definitely have their other fun meanings that apply too but like the core of it is -- I assume -- a direct reference?#I stand by my original breakdown about ego being a scary ugly thing in terms of common definition but also geets claiming to be tapping tha#instinctive destructive patterns but can't revert to it and instead spends the whole fight trying to talk down a man trying to kill him#that is also very definitively Freud's Ego. Command over instinct. The horseback rider in control of the horse etc#Which -- again -- makes it a FANTASTIC contrast to Majin Geets which was a panicked instinctive choice that sacrificed his autonomy#Majin Geets was the horse up until he overpowered Bobidi [insert old joke about horses only have two settings: murder and suic!de]#And ego despite his outward ferality and ferocity is actually calmly and confidently in absolute control of himself and his desires#the illustrated difference between arrogance and confidence which makes the characters calling it a weird ego boost both funny and ironic#media analysis#dbtag

i personally don't "ship" wesker with anyone but I do headcanon him having interest or one-sided (albeit very repressed) romantic feelings. To me he's the epitome of "I may be nonbinary but I have a job so I don't have time to think about that" but instead of him being nonbinary it's him with any romantic relationships. He's just Too Busy. Even if he did date I think he wouldn't be a good partner bc 1. his job/ambitions are priority 2. he's very independent/ stubborn/ thinks he's the best thing since sliced bread 3. He's a dick and evil and 4. he is so repressed due to his mindset of "I must be the upmost and most perfect example of an intellectual human being ever" that he wouldn't let himself have feelings he thinks are beneath him
#resident evil#albert wesker#my headcanon is his fling with Jake's mom was entertained bc it boosted his ego and he didn't let himself get romantically involved#which is why (and the fact that he was very busy and non-committal) they broke up

Hello! Since this blog doesn't see much activity nowadays, I wanted to say two things: 1. How are you? You were one of the people who inspired me to dive into SAGAU in 2022 and captivated me endlessly with your writing style. Your writing immersed me in what felt like a fantasy world in the best way—rife with possibilities, danger, love, and so much more. It propelled me to new heights and made me wonder what it would be like to be more than the reader, to wield a pen and use it as the brushstroke to paint all kinds of worlds, creatures, and characters.
On that note, I'll follow with the second thing: 2. You are one of my biggest inspirations as a writer. Because of you and others, I've spent the last two years writing and creating like never before in a way I didn't think I was capable of. I have an AO3 and a Tumblr blog, mainly dedicated to posting my musings in a "stream-of-consciousness" format for narrative purposes. Because of you, I've grown—as a person, friend, and writer. Because of you, I made countless memories I'll cherish for years: sharing and building stories with my friends' group chat, roleplaying, making AUs, etc. Because of you, I did everything I thought I couldn't: I fostered my creativity and cultivated it to plant what is now a thriving garden regularly visited by my friends. It has helped us bond immensely and provided me solace in my darkest hours.
Because of you, I wrote my first book on Wattpad. I hopped onto a wild, emotional, and unforgettable rollercoaster that saw my interest in watching movies and reading literature be re-ignited for the sake of inspiration, have a taste of fandom culture via Steven Universe, Genshin Impact, Murder Drones, and several other games and shows that have undoubtedly and irreversibly changed my life. Because of you, I made OCs, I discovered YouTube movie recaps, and now I can write a pretty good summary myself!
That is to say that I'm wholly grateful to you, Eros, and everyone else who led me down the path of the writer, supported me throughout with their comments, memes, stars, and kudos, and generally showed enthusiastic interest in my work. I wouldn't be here if not for you all. I hope your ship of life continues sailing smoothly, as has mine, after years of turbulent weather and unpredictable storms that threatened to throw us overboard if I hadn't held on to others (and myself) for support.
May the new year bring you joy and prosperity, and hey, what do you know? Maybe I'll write something for SAGAU someday. The only reason I haven't taken the plunge yet is because of how inactive (for lack of a better word) the community there has become, and I don't know what I would write. Ideas, anyone?
Anyway, I've talked for long enough. Keep up the good work, Eros, and remember that in someone's (my) heart, you are still held dearly as an inspiration. Even if the golden age has long faded, we will always have our memories to keep us company: "Don't cry because it ended. Smile because it happened."
it is unfortunate that the collective sagau fandom has kind of died out, honestly. its what got me really into writing as well (which i feel like i have to mention @/nicebonescomrade for being the writer to get me to make my first sagau blog. one of the other og's and also a phenomenal writer). im glad it had such a large impact on you though!! that makes me really happy bc ive always been self conscious about my writing and writing style ngl, though i never grew out of it bc it worked for me. i can't imagine stories like books as a movie in my head like some people (literally head empty) so i lean more on actually putting more feeling and description into my work to compensate. it gets a bit wordy but it helps me write bc i do not plan anything i just start writing based on vibes.
sagau downfall was definitely inevitable (and a part of why im super inactive) but im happy with how it turned out anyway bc of how big the fandom is and how many people turned to creative hobbies bc of it. its nice to know i at least had some kind of impact myself KJHKDH i wouldnt consider myself one of the "big" sagau accounts by any means so its a bit of a surprise ngl um. looks around.
i genuinely just spend most of my time these days printing out random fics when i get the urge (once in a blue moon, 99% of which are in my draft vault), playing whatever game caught my fancy this week and playing genshin because it's still a black hole i will never escape from! honestly maybe one day ill come back to this account for real instead of sporadic posting but uhhh. probably not unless a new big au pops up again.
#asks#wiltingmemories#give me a minute im not crying you are#ego boost x2000 /hj#i didnt think i really inspired anyone I DIDNT EXPECT 2 SEE THIS IN MY INBOX EVER </3#this is so late im so sorry i do Not touch this blog like at all anymore#i ditched it for discord w bones and appear once a year like ive been summoned via sacrifice#still laying on the floor 24/7 thinking abt miss furina de fontaine and the tsaritsa nothing has changed there though#is it that obvious that english was my fav school subject LMAO#i loved essay's ate that shit up#am i yapping again? FUCK#i have to go adopt my 463rd low ar player now or im gonna get EMOTIONAL and for your guys sake no one wants that#throwing myself back into genshin like slamming into a brick wall#bc if i think abt this ask for longer than .5 seconds i will start eating drywall (/pos)#do i ever shut up? no#its my brand#obligatory check out smaller writers note everyone i am Not Asking#wish u a very success and flourishing in ur writing u have my blessing. bonk.

i just feel like i gotta reiterate rq how much i love all my followers with “scary” mental illness symptoms, all my cluster b followers with “evil” disorders or whatever other bullshit people call them because i love you. so fucking much like idk if it’s just the autistic sense of justice but i am so fr when i say i love you. all of you. every single one of you. the ones who are getting better but still struggle and the ones who don’t have the energy to get better and the ones who made bad choices in the past and are working to correct them now so it never happens again and the ones who are undiagnosed and the ones who are diagnosed and the ones who had their symptoms used against them and the ones who struggle to find their place and the queer ones and the disabled ones and all the other ones i didn’t name
idk. i just think there needs to be more outward love for cluster b folk. not just “did you know these guys aren’t actually all inherently evil” but more of “you are worthy of love no matter what” because it’s true tbh. and i hope this page can be forever safe for my cluster b followers. i love you a lot. mwah smooch ty for existing
#rambling#idk how to to express my thoughts but like#there’s not enough genuine love for cluster b folk#like i don’t see “i love you ____ i love you ____” posts for them like others#i’m also very tired#but i mean everything i said#you don’t have to be a saint to be worthy of love and attention#I’LL give you love and attention if you can’t get it in a healthy way from anyone else#and i mean that i am so fr#i will boost ur ego i will praise you i will reassure you#dm me or get in my inbox and i will love on you
