I know I'm probably gonna end up on someone's 'kill it with fire' list for this, but I am so tired of each and every ask lately being someone's desperate plea for help.

I have neither the money to help, nor the energy to go through the vetting process of figuring out which request is legit and which isn't, so I can't just post them either, because I refuse to aid in someone's attempt to use other people's goodwill against them. scams are still a thing, and sadly enough people will use any opportunity to benefit from someone else's misery.

so please stop sending me these. I get at least three a day and if this doesn't stop I'm gonna have to turn off asks which sucks because I like talking to people. I just.. I can't anymore. I am exhausted, mentally and more importantly emotionally, and I just don't have the bandwidth to deal with this right now.

i have been struggling to commit to drawing for weeks, but was convinced that i just needed to collect more and more refs, because the last time i was productive was while watching this video

and i just fucking realized after spending five and a half straight hours drawing to a video essay that ~staring at glenn~ for an hour and a half was not what helped, it was just. having a fucking video playing while i was drawing.

motherfuckers with adhd who need constant stimulation make some noise

“Oh shit.” Bodhi whispers quietly to my left. He’s standing there, frozen, looking between us like a sheep stuck between two dragons. “Did you guys just have a fight?” He hisses. “Now?!” “She broke up with me, actually.” Xaden says dryly and everyone turns as one, staring at me wide-eyed. “Oh, fuck you!” I lunge, but he manages to catch my wrist in his hands before I can make contact with any part of him.

Chapter Four of Truth & Talon is live on the Archive 🖤

nosy anon again making a return because i think what my brain did was read that i helped find some kind of writing and then did not fully process what the writing was?? but upon rereading i am very intrigued if you ever get the urge to share i will be all eyes/ears/senses required to enjoy things!!

I GET TO DO WIP WEDNESDAYYYYYY!!! the writing exists mostly in the form of a tag (fantastic! 'verse) and also a thirty-two page doc of snippets and planning, so the sense you will be using most is imagination:

don't think i have ever actually formally written out anything about fantastic! 'verse but! the tl;dr of it is that it's a semi-college au: joel is still a hockey player for the lv phantoms, but morgan is a college student-athlete. it's incredibly relevant to the plot that joel falls in love with morgan in the check-out line of a wegman's, lies a little bit, and ends up going back to get his degree.

most of it is just good fun about college kids growing up, but i think there's a lot of parallels between making your way through a development system where traditional "success" isn't always guaranteed (ahl -> nhl, completion of higher education -> pursuit of a career) because that development system isn't always designed for you to "succeed" or have opportunities. heavy quotation marks around success because part of that struggle is learning what you want in life and how you define success. are your dreams achievable? are they still the same dreams you always used to have? it's infinite branching universes of would you still love me if i was a worm (ahl player forever) (a college dropout) (a college graduate) (older) (realizing the fallibility of your body) (uncertain of the future) (human).

silly little snippet:

Bro now that I'm in a show with a three-person cast, I finally understand all those posts about three-person friend groups, how someone will always be left out and/or two people will end up coupling off.

I'm pretty sure I overheard my castmates planning a sushi date during our break. (I'm not an expert but it kind of sounded like an actual, like, romantic date?) 😑

Random main WIP snippet because why not?

"We're not part of the government; we just hijacked a shipment train, got rid of all the weapons, and replaced with lab equipment shit — stupid idea in retrospect. Also, I'm not answering whatever other question you just asked. I'm not an idiot." Bailon grinned. "You can't make me give that up so easily." "Bailey. Answer the other question," Malcolm piped up. "What are the Solarian Labs?" "Who the hell is Bailey? My name’s Bailon.” "Bread roll. Answer the question,” Malcolm repeated. “What are the Solarian Labs?" Bread roll  — I mean, uh, Bailon — laughed. "What's with the nicknames? Do you think that's making me take this seriously?" "Bacon. Answer the question. What are the Solarian Labs?" "Like I'd spill that." Bailon frowned. "Bombardment. Answer the question. What are the Solarian Labs?"

Random shit I wrote for APS book two at, like, 8 in the morning one day. Why does my brain make up this stuff?

Someone in my dms asked for a list of ‘rehashed’ Avatar 2 scenes (which is a big part of why I didn’t like Avatar 2 that much even tho I really wanted to), so here it is:

1. Jake rawring on top of his banshee. The camera angle and distance is the same, he makes the same sound, so it’s almost identical to the scene in the first movie where he charges in and rawrs on Toruk.

2. Neytiri’s war cry/chatter thing, it’s the same camera angle, and she makes the exact same sound, and she was in the same pose.

3. The scene with the recombs when the recombs get to the Banshee place. One of the banshees flaps its wings a couple times, screeches, and flies in a curving trajectory off the cliffside, which is almost identical to what happened in the first movie when Jake approached the banshees.

4. Banshee snarling at Quaritch, same camera angle.

5. Another really similar shot of Quaritch making a move on the banshee.

5. Quaritch saying ‘outstanding’. Most of us know this one I think.

6. Scene where the akula (aggressive shark thing) is chasing Lo’ak, the music from the Thanator chase (aggressive panther thing) plays. Then Lo’ak gets himself into a tangled messy root-system thing and tries to crawl through it to escape, just like Jake did to try and escape from the Thanator in the first movie, and the same music still plays.

7. Scene with all the fire and ash near the beginning.. The ‘destruction of hometree’ track from Horner’s score was used plus all the colours and the vibe of the scene was exactly the same, it could have come from the first movie.

Many BIG chunks of Horner’s original score were used too and it makes the similarities even more obvious cries, I’m not talking about tiny pieces, I’m talking big huge segments. I wanted to like this movie so so so badly, but this put it in a solid 5/10 category for me despite all the other amazing things in it. I spent way too much of the movie wanting it to rush through these scenes so it could get to the ones that didn’t feel derivative.
