#it's a weird mix of like

this headcanon i wrote a few months ago and this observation i made recently are rattling together in my brain like the pear wiggler
hands are a common way that people give love (whether by physical contact or acts of service). but for amity, hands are also an important part of how she receives love
(also. the way she held that abomination's hand looks so reminiscent of how a little child might have to hold just one or two of their parent's fingers because their hand is so tiny. and how the mittens thing started when she was very young. she's so Little)
#eliot posts#toh#the owl house#amity blight#the feelings in my heart whenever this show reminds us that these are basically children#see also the 'can i sleep here tonight?' that i was getting emotional over yesterday#it's a weird mix of like#the normal finding them cute and wanting to take care of them like when you see a kitten#and living vicariously through them because i didn't really have a chance to safely express that kind of childish vulnerability at that age#or hell. even younger than that actually

can we start placing bets about the live action voltron movie. everyone download draftkings right now
#shitpost#voltron#I’m pretty sure they’re adapting the original anime so like who knows what’s going to happen#I feel like they’re not going to make Allura a Paladin and they’ll like tease it in the lead up to the movie but they won’t actually do it#they’ll probably save making Allura a Paladin in the sequel that will never happen because this movie is going to die at the box office#I think they’re going to make all the paladins white or white passing with maybe the exception of hunk#I do think they’ll make Allura a woman of color but the vibes are going to be soooo weird I am already praying for her future actress#also I guarantee there will be romantic tension between Allura and keith and then conservatives are going to post rage bait articles#about them being a mixed race couple

find yourself a man who knows you well enough after only a few encounters to guess that you were not in fact involved in a hostile takeover because the monsters aren't ecologically practical
#kabru of utaya#laios touden#labru#anyway I like kabru's weird mix of optimism and pessimism#like yeah this is a dire scenario... can't give up hope yet though!

i’ve been thinking about the pokémon memes where it’s like playing off of that one quote that’s like ‘truly strong trainers should try to win using their favorites’ and it’s like ‘ok well my favorite is [something blatantly overpowered]’ and it’s got me curious. how many people genuinely love pokémon that also happen to be really strong competitively?
so if you will. pick a favorite pokémon (for any reason! whether it’s cuteness or strength or nostalgia etc. no judgment) then go here https://www.smogon.com/dex/sv/pokemon/ and look it up
(you’ll see something that looks like this. see where it says tier and has some gibberish afterwards? don’t worry if you don’t know what that means but tell me what the letters/words are)
also if there are multiple forms and the distinction matters to you make sure you get the right one lol cuz the tiering can be different
edit: forgot to mention i mean specifically in SV! which is what comes up by default. rip every pokémon that either isn’t in SV (it’ll say ‘national dex’) or used to be better but has since fallen off relative to new pokémon
#pokémon#pokemon#pokeposting#if you want to know what those terms mean#AG stands for anything goes. very few pokémon have ever been in here#the absolute elite. too powerful too broken#Ubers is below that it’s like the normal ban zone where most overpowered pokémon go#OU stands for overused it’s like the ���standard’ top tier#below that is UU (underused) then RU (rarely used) then ZU (zero used) then PU (this is a pun. pee-yew. because they stink)#LC is little cup which is basically Baby Fight™️ and NFE is not fully evolved so like babies and teenagers basically#and anything with BL (ban list) at the end is like a weird in between state#where they’re too powerful for the tier they were supposed to be in but not good enough for anyone in the tier above them to want to use em#if you’re thinking these are insane ridiculous terms then i agree#slight edit i think i initially got the order of ZU and PU mixed up. so many tiers with negative mean names…#i fixed it in the poll though#that is to say PU is above ZU#and if you’re curious how tiers work. the tier a pokémon is ‘in’ refers to the lowest it can possibly go#but you can use it in any of the higher tiers if you want to (it’s just more likely to get stomped on)#so like if a pokémon is OU that means you can’t use it in UU or RU or NU etc etc#but you can use it in Ubers if you want in addition to OU#most people i believe play in OU bc there’s arguably the greatest game balance#you’re allowed to use powerful pokémon but it isn’t as run wild go crazy no rules as Ubers#i mean even Ubers has rules but. fewer of em#AG has only one rule and that’s ‘you can’t force a standstill endless battle’ lol. otherwise it’s the wild west#OU is popular bc it’s a fine mix of rules that keep the game fair fun and competitive#and pokémon that are powerful and fun to use in battle#but if you have a different style you might like playing in a lower tier where everybody is super weak#*syndrome voice* but if everyone is weak then no one is…#it’s all about scale it’s all relative#edit: KNEW i was forgetting some nuance. some pokémon are stuck in the past aka not available in SV so they’ll say ‘national dex’ oops

I appear for one hot second with another self indulgent nostalgia piece! It's my birthday today, I'm now [redacted] years old and I'm reminiscing about the passage of time..
#naruto#team 7#dai nana han#you know for part of me it is wild that I can still enjoy things that I loved when they aired like. 20 years ago??#and I remembered today that I was doing an naruto inktober when I started to study again#which was 5 years ago#and now I'm writing my master's thesis#I feel old and still pretty young today! weird mix#also this is a redraw of something out of the timetravel au I did like 4-5 years ago hehe

You guys ever think about an AU where Jason goes to hound Tim through Titans Tower, and, mid pursuit—while Tim is screaming at him about the second Robin being his hero, tryin to crawl away in a trail of blood—realizes he’s become an even worse version of his own mother, who sold him out to the Joker?
Because I do.
#the perpetual horror of genetics#and what our minds make of it#nature and nurture#Jason having an entire existential crisis in the middle of enacting his pointless vengeance#meanwhile Tim is just grateful for the momentary respite#Jason having a split second decision of ‘No I will NOT be like that monster’ and scooping Tim up#Tim thinks this is it and he’s done for#in actuality Jason is going to personally patch the replacement up if he wants to or not#Tim doesn’t know what’s happening but he’s not a fan of this do-and-don’t#he’d rather have a clear road ahead of him than this weird psych manipulation thing thanks#meanwhile Jason: I’m gonna coddle the shit out of you you little cockroach#Tim: I’m getting real mixed signals here man#jason todd#Tim drake#titans tower au#prompts#batfamily#red hood#Robin

I'm loathe to make this comparison because people throw out Discworld as a comp title way more often than warranted (and don't get me started on how every SF debut claims Murderbot as a readalike when it's not deserved) but if I could make the comparison once, I think Greater Boston is the closest I've seen to Discworld. It skins over the real world with a made up* metropolis and then uses that setting and its cast of interconnected characters to make a lot of observations about people and society that range from hilarious to profound and, frequently, both at the same time. One of the show's theses is first presented in a monologue about two Bigfoot hunters seeking the sublime and finding each other.
It posits ridiculous scenarios and then takes them seriously in the worldbuilding. It dredges up bizarre real world facts and spins them into something else until you're constantly looking up which bits of trivia are true. It's relentlessly optimistic about humanity and our capacity to care for each other while also being cleareyed about all the ways we as individuals and a society are currently failing. It's got a guy named Dipshit Poletti. I don't know what Terry Pratchett would have written about Brexit, but Greater Boston's take on the 2016 US election is the best I've seen. America's truest answer to Ankh Morpork right now is a city made out of trains.
I came to this realization while on my commute this afternoon but I now desperately want to see CMOT Dibbler in Red Line.
#greater boston#discworld#people use pratchett a lot in comp titles as like... fantasy that is funny#but beat for beat I think Greater Boston is a better inheritor#the fantasy city used to comment on the real ones#the dedication to weird worldbuilding#the approach to community and sometimes anvilicious commentary#the bizarre humor mixed with tearjerking profundity#it's got it all guys

Why did no one tell me that Ataru is the OG tsundere? smh...
#urusei yatsura#atalum#ataru moroboshi#lum invader#shinobu miyake#ryunosuke fujinami#ran urusei yatsura#sakura urusei yatsura#benten#oyuki#ryoko mendo#kurama urusei yatsura#almost done the original series so I can finally watch the remake yippeeee#also not to give spoilers but.... on one of the movies it was confirmed that the real reason why Ataru cheats on Lum is because of the#thrill of Lum finding out and electrocuting him.. so basically he's even more of a freak than we initially thought lol#anyway I was amazed because that's been my running theory throughout later parts of the show#also it's weird how in descriptions of this series Ataru is described as bland when in reality he acts like a mix between Ouma and Desuhiko#who are both the opposite of bland#...and dates a bimbo(/himbo(Fubuki/Gonta)) like they do(I'm delusional)

I made a few new wax seal stamps out of clay (like the ones I did for my worldbuilding stuff forever ago), this time just of random symbols that I thought might look good done in the style of painting over the raised part of the wax or etc. :0c Some of them aren't carved deep enough to really show up that well, but overall they worked okay for being clay lol
#wax seal#crafts#wax stamp#stationery#Window one is kind of stinky.. I was imagining like a swirly night sky sort of looking thing so it would be a surreal contrast of a night#sky with a window in the middle that shows a daytime sky - but the silver and purple wax kind of mixed too much together#with the black and it just looks very plain black and not all that starry or anything hjbhj.. Of course the eye is probably my favorite#since all I ever do is draw eyes and still like eye imagery for some reason. The four leaf clover is very lumpy and skrunkty but also it wa#the smallest in size out of all of them so was easier to do multiple stamps of just to try it out.#The heart with eyes wax is actually more swirly in person. I wanted it to be a mix of light pink and red and white. and the wax#did kind of all blend together but in person you can definitely see MORE of the intentional swirlyness. in this it just looks plain pink.#I was going to do one eye in the heart but it looked weird. but now two seems too plain. i could have done 3?? in a pattern.. hmm#alas. I wish I could make actual metal ones. With the clay i have to paint them in a thin layer of olive oil before stamping because#otherwise the wax just kind of gets stuck in the grooves of the clay and then you can't pull it up. Very wacky ''unprofessional'' looking#set up where I'm hot gluing circles of sculpey clay to short stumps of a wooden dowel that I sawed apart with a serrated bread knife#and then using an old paintbrush to put olive oil on them whilst holding a spoon over a yankee candle flame hjbjh#ANYWAY.. I think if I were middle class/rich/etc. this would be one of the main things in my crafting room is like.. SO many colors#of wax. and all different custom made stamps designed by me. which could be much more elaborate in actual metal.. muahaha.... >:)c#RHGghhh... I actually don't want to talk much about it since (this is probably just my Obsessed With My Own World Artist Delusions) I#think I have a really cool idea for a game that could genuinely be successful if i ever get to make it and I don't want to give#everything away and spoil the whole plot/concept in hopes that one day I can actually do it - BUT - a game that I'd like to make after the#visual novel I'm making now has partially to do with the main character working as a sort of writer/scribe/artist assistant in an elven#city (set in my world/with my worldbuilding species and versions of elves and etc) and I was thinking of maybe incorporating#somehow being able to collect little writing type items like these like.. you can get different wax seal patterns or pens or etc. when I do#stuff like this in Real Life it always makes me think of that like.. ouh... this is good research.. what it shall be like to be a littol#elf collecting wax seals and such.. indeed... GRR i need to be finished with my current game NOWWW... i MUST work on other#thingss... aughh... ANYWAY.. yay. accomplishment to do One Single Thing other than Sit In The Summer Heat And Rot#though also hilarious as this was the first cool-ish day that was below 80F in a while hgvh#waking up like 'wow.. i actually feel okay today?? like I could do things?? how mysterious.. I wonder why..?? :0'' Its The Weather You Fool#Tis Always The Weather

as soon as Brennan gave "[email protected]" as his email address in the season finale, i had to check if bugwithabigass.com was a registered domain- and lo and behold! ...this!
#game changer#bug with a big ass#honestly not sure if that episode came together‚ though#it seems like it was probably more fun for the players than the viewer#the whole premise kind of relies on an intimate familiarity with the cast that the viewer doesn't necessarily have#and i don't think the ratfish himself really added all that much#i think all the behind-the-scenes editing showing people coming up with their jokes in real time was like...#kind of bad for comedy? made the timing of the gags very weird#idk how else you'd present it as a show‚ though. inherently a difficult thing to film.#could not have been an easy editing job‚ that's for sure#they clearly put a lot of effort into injecting visual interest into a premise that really only works as a live text chat#with mixed success
