Amidst all the ai mass-plagiarism trend mess, the constant erasure of artists from their works, the devaluing of people who create, and subsequent fog of anti-motivation/depression/disgust/blunt nihilism concerning creating anything, I find myself thinking about the phrase, "Art for No One" again and again.

mostly I just want to plug this video by Jacob Geller. It's really good. (i've been watching a lot of his videos lately).

but it (the phrase "art for no one") also sticks into my brainmeats at a wonky angle and won't fade away.

There is no such thing as Art for No One. Art is made. It doesn't just happen. Art can never be for no one, because art is first and foremost for its creator.

And that thought comforts me.

#tldr: dew urtz 4 yeselff #y'know that old bit of advice #just wordier and more adhd brainfog-induced ramblingly #'you should make art for yourself' yeah no shit #it's not easy though #but just the simple act of doing any of it. of making anything. will be for you.#which kinda takes the pressure off everything and helps.#honestly 'just make art for youuuu' is kinda antithetical to art in and of itself #art is expression and is made to invoke reaction #so yeah of cOURSE art needs to be experienced by someone #but at the very least without even trying there is one person who will inevitably experience your art #no matter what

[ID in ALT] I've made posts before about Talia/Dick co-parenting Damian moments (will never happen but let me dream) and this came to me in a vision. Took me ages to finish for some reason 😭 and then even longer to post

#dc comics #dc #damian wayne #dick grayson #talia al ghul #batfamily #dc robin #nightwing #anyway. yes im a self-indulgent ''dick as damians secret third parent'' truther #like i DO think it's way more complex and nuanced than the schmoopy affectionate fan portrayal of it #they're brothers they're father and son they're partners they're the dynamic duo except only in past tense etc etc #but consider! I'm not immune to schmoopy affection in fanworks. it compells me despite itself #anyway it's technically not that crazy when it comes to dick and damian. they hug! often! at least they did #it's not as big a leap to these types of scenarios #also talia ''somewhat absent for complex reasons on both her and damians part but very loving and loved by her son'' al ghul #you will always be famous to me #son of the demon origin...bwahhh #anyway. someone made a comic kind of like this/like a post i made abt this topic #but way funnier bc dick and talia starting trying to beat each other up #so go look at that as well #anyway. it's been a somewhat difficult few weeks so I'm. desperately trying to take it easy #i got some reading with me (first vol of kevin smiths GA run that i found second hand and jaimes BB run vol 2!)#so we'll see how far i get through those. considering there's demons in my head telling me to re-read things (LET ME OUT!!!)#when i finish GA and BB i do plan on rereading robin 2021. as a treat to myself #it's a run I've really warmed up to as time went on #I'm keeping up w/ the current b&r run even though it is. admittedly very slow w/ some weird dialogue #i read it for the damian content more than anything. also nikas back so that's neat :]#idk I have a feeling that after absolute power shakes out we might get some more creative team switch ups #so if anyone at dc is interested in taking over the reigns on b&r...that could be very neat #mine

figure skating set right now please. thanks

#project sekai #pjsk #prsk #emu otori #proseka #tsukasa tenma #nene kusanagi #rui kamishiro #wxs #wonderlands x showtime #GUYS I AM PUTTING OFF WORKING ON MY COSPLAY SOMETHING STUPID. im tireddddd i like sleeepingggff i want to play and drawwwww #after work I literally ate a giant bowl of mac n cheese and climbed into bed. lifestyle choices of a 9 year old #anyways i want figure skaitng set. bad. PJSK HAS A WEIRDLY LOW NUMBER OF ACTUALLY WINTERY SETS... like 3. kind of.#i have some thumbnail sketches but im kind of stumped on composition for them. my idea was a nene focus set #(IF HER NEXT FOCUS ISNT PHANTOM OF THE OPERA THEMED INWILL DIE. BADLY. THEYRE GOING TO AN OPER AHOUSE. PLEADBR)#originally my idea was for nene to be biting a medal i was very sold on it bc i love nenes competitive side #however her outfit is so nice i want it to also be part of the art .. its heavily inspired by that one iconic eunsoo lim dress #from her somewhere in time program iirc. im really undatisfied with emus dress tbh my origimal idea was to give it a phoenix look #but a lot of the firebird/phoenix skating programs have very sleek dresses and i want emus to be fluffy. the balance is hard ..#and since i want her program song to be once upon a dream from sleeping beauty i swerved to make it look a bit like auroras ? but again #it definitely feels like the weakest of everybodys ... maybe i just love her too much and want her to look the best. sorry wxs.#tsukasas outfit is supposed to look like a shooting star. easy. program music moonlight sonata 3rd movement like from dazzling light. easy.#actually i like takahashi daisukes moonlight sonata program its a medley of the 1st and 3rd movement.. i think the calm at the beginning #is best. maybe smth like that.. for his card inhad him doing a haircutter spin but again. the outfits good i want the outfit visible. damn.#ruis the one im very set on even now. girl why are you so phantom of the opera.#it has a lot of beautiful programs to reference but the outfit i didnt really have any solid reference i kind of just balled #my main idea was to make it look a bit like both christine and the phantom.... gender Fluid.#my yapfest... i should be SEWING!!!!!!!!#despite my yapping im not that well versed in figure skating i cant really distinguish jumps i just like it . and medalist #i only do normal skating. bc i played hockey for like 7 years LOLLLL inlove skating though Heart.

The Crew is boisterous and loud, full of traitors, inside jokes, and secrets. The scum of the Fire Nation. The forgotten tiles on the Empire's Pai Sho board. The ones who change the game.

But most importantly—they're a family. And no matter how much they complain about their boss (teenage menace that he is), they'll do anything for their Prince.

Anything.

.

The Crew is the heart and soul of my fic For the Spirits. No one really knows just how important they will be to the story...how important they already are.

#atla #avatar the last airbender #zuko #atla fanart #prince zuko #atla art #new gods au #for the spirits #the crew #zuko's crew #atla fanfic #atla fic #atla au #spirit touched zuko #lieutenant jee #Royal Guard Ming #Ensign Yoi #Captain Yume #Helmsman Taku #Chief Engineer On Zhe #Healer Oyoshi #Chef Bao #atla oc #Ming is the glorious lady yelling POUTY POUT POUT. She's fun and protective and a terrible liar.#She could also break boulders without even using firebending. Just so you know. (It's incredibly easy to underestimate her though)#Next to her is her bff; soulmate; and the Crew's resident James Potter—our very own Yoi.#The intense old lady is Yume. She has known Iroh for most of their lives and served alongside him in Ba Sing Se. Do NOT mess with her.#The blushing mess? That's Taku. He's aware of everything that goes on in the Wani. EVERYTHING. And he has a crush on Yume. Who wouldn't?#Talking about love. Our resident couple are On Zhe and Oyoshi. On Zhe is a sickly and shy genius. Oyoshi is a strict and no-nonsense healer.#And lastly we have Chef Bao! He doesn't appear very often and we know little about him. The Crew likes to come up with backstories for him.

"My skin is breaking out, and my hair is dull and lifeless... god. It's like I'm one of the normal girls :( "

Conifer's Body Heart Hoodie by Mosneakers

Here's my salty little simblreen treat 🍭🍬

Always wanted do a Jennifer's body themed edit with Ms. Coni, and considering where things are with her in the story, it sorta feels like this might be the last opportunity. Then I decided that I needed the iconic heart hoodie but I needed it right now, during halloween season, and I'm not paying someone for it lmfao—so I just whipped up this little number. It unfortunately does require High School Years, I'm sorry. However it's free immediately upon release because that's how the halloween spirit should be celebrated damn it! 😤

anyways happy spooky season darlings 🧡🎃🖤

9 heart swatches

disabled for random

custom thumbnails

requires high school years EP

maxis match

bonus: add "costume blood" or dirt to your look with this overlay by me

I don't ask for money or payment, I'm only Needy (get it? hehe) when it comes to spreading joy through my characters and storytelling. I have a little known story that's pretty great if you ask me, and chances are you might really like it if you try it! so check it out or share it with your friends and followers by giving it a reblog or two to show your support, tysm ♥
