#its a beautiful day outside

i just had a great(?) idea.

See how from volume 3 onwards the sparklecare artstyle doesnt have diversity anymore.? (vol 3 is almost exclusively done by kc according to the credits at the bottom of each page, and in vol 4 all the clowns have her exact artstyle) well. i thought about that and came to a conclusion;

why dont the fandom all redraw V3-V4 pages. dozens, hundreds of people. with all kinds of styles, and skill level. teaming up, redrawing each 1-5pages. then slowly redrawing the whole thing with our own hands, our own artstyles. We'd post our new, diverse-artstyle sparklecare with all pages in order on a blog or smth.

seeing the credits at the bottom of the vol2 pages was my favorite thing ever, after a while i even would start to recognize each team member's artstyle, and i found it very charming how each individual style conveyed different emotions throughout each character yet still fit'd the main style of the comic and they all went very well together. as much as i like the current artstyle of the comic (controversial opinion, i know.) it OBJECTIVELY is way less "alive" feeling and expressive than vol 1 or 2's for exemple, and the lack of diversity that seems to be allowed within the zcp doesnt help. if all of us, as many as we are, created and directed a massive re-draw collab of sparklecare hospital, we could have this alive sparklecare that we deserve once again.

I really love hope is a thing with feathers and I also really LOVE the hope as a sewer rat poem too but I wish it was not explicity written as "well actually" against Dickinson asgvsjnk. The imagery is SO GOOD but this whole vibe of "my metaphor is better than your metaphor" kinda sours it for me

having a job sucks and being in regular pain/tired all the time sucks but having a job and being in pain/tired sucks extra because I'm going to get at most 4-6 hours of any day where I feel genuinely okay and I can't even spend that limited amount of okay-ness on necessary tasks for my own human flourishing. it's all I got and it belongs to someone else

ok this is not exactly a rant but i've been thinking, as someone who writes, about the way that we female authors present our female characters because in the vast majority of the books I've read, they are mostly the means to an end and the end is a man.

like literally so many female characters have their own growth thrown to the wind and for what? to put a ring on it?

maybe is just not appealing to me as a reader but why can't growth and love coexist? why can't a power angry woman be loved when men are idolized through every shitty and downright abusive and toxic behavior known on god's green earth?

i want my cruel and vindictive and unhinged women to be loved like they hang the moon in the sky for the vile and cruel creatures that they are why do women need to be bite sized or worst need to be punished even if their cruelty is basically a survival instinct while the man can be everything they want regardless of why and how the math isn't mathing
