People be like "Russia is not imperialistic"🤡 - and then the most famous Ukrainian chef cannot open a restaurant of the most famous Ukrainian cultural food in Japan, because Japanese widely consider borscht a Russian dish and so would avoid the restaurant thinking it to be Russian🫤🫤🫤🤯🤯🤯
#ukraine#japan#ukrainian culture#borscht#russian imperialism#russian invasion#ruscism#genocide#like.... thank you to Japanese for avoiding all Russian products#and for supporting Ukraine#this is not your fault#its fucking Russia's and its imperialism#moreover#the far East of Russia is where Russian regime forcefully displaced many Ukrainians#during Soviet times#so I am almost sure Japan actually learnt borsch from Ukrainians#they just belived it to be Russian cause it was coming from Russian territory near them🫤#culture appropriation#україна#укртумбочка#укртумба#укртамблер#ukrainian cuisine#yevhen klopotenko

sometimes i feel compelled to delete this account
#every time i open tumblr i feel so inadequate and irrelevant#it's suffocating honestly#this site is so great at archival. i wish i could use it without feeling sick#someone on strawpage asked me what its like being popular#i dont know. i wish i felt like i had any impact on this fandom and the people around me#i dont think ive inspired anyone or contributed much of value#especially not on here#sorry. my mental and physical health are pretty terrible#every day i feel like im dying#i plunge myself into art and into fictional worlds into some sort of creative production#to try and drown out the inescpable dread#i would like to do something. i need to improve my organizational skills. i need to work harder#i need to improve myself. sorry#im not sure why im sharing this. i dont really want to worry anyone or make anyone feel bad for me#vent#delete later#expressing myself is nice. but i shouldn't because it might hurt people.#life is difficult isn't it? let's all forget about this tomorrow.

seeing people's takes about the whole watcher situation is just a bit.... mind-boggling.
i think the apology they posted was good in the sense that they admitted to fucking up and walked back on their decision, and i think the model they've settled on now is a lot more reasonable (having content be released earlier for those who choose to subscribe), but like.... that doesn't mean that no one should've ever been mad at them in the first place???
like seriously, why does it seem like people are looking at a "good" apology and thinking "huh! they sure did apologize well! i guess that means that it was ridiculous for people to be mad in the first place! no one should have ever complained!!". if no one complained, they wouldnt have walked back their decision! they would've kept going with their dumb completely paywalled option!
and thats not even getting into the fact that their financial woes seem to come from completely mismanaging their money - hiring people when they can not afford to and spending more money on "high quality productions" when they cant afford to.... these are core issues that im not sure will be completely fixed by this? but idk.
also, this situation i think has really helped my own self come to terms with the fact that i do not enjoy many aspects of their content. i sorta already knew that considering i can not remember the last ghost files video i watched because i find that shit incredibly boring and overproduced, and even things like too many spirits have become a chore to watch bc they decided to extend the Not That Funny drink making portion when i just wanna hear some funny spooky stories.
anyway i guess my ultimate point here is: im glad they acknowledged they fucked up, but i also am not sure how interested i am in their content anymore in the first place. oh well
#watcher#i still personally dont know if i would call them 'greedy' for their original choice#for the record: i dont think the three of them are struggling at all lmao#they clearly are living pretty well off#but i do think that watcher as a company really has been struggling bc of their awful business decisions#so i DO think they needed to change SOMETHING#its just.... yknow maybe next time just fucking ask ur audience about the routes ur considering taking#rather than just surprising everyone with a 'whoops! its all paywalled now!!'#im really not sure how to articulate my feelings bc i just constantly feel confused at the way i see others act online#like seeing people yell at others for being 'too parasocial' in the sense of people feeling betrayed and upset by their choices#when those same people are being incredibly parasocial themselves by defending these three like their lives depend on it#these are not starving artists. they are the owners of a business. a ceo. i think its fair for ppl to critique them in that sense#and to point out things like hiring more staff than they can afford#and spending more money on production than is arguably necessary#even if it is part of their 'artistic vision'

A Decision To Get Into Television.
#smg4#glitch productions#mr puzzles#smg4 mr puzzles#puzzlevison#smg4 puzzlevision#I’m pretty sure this was the first actual thing I made for the TV back a long time ago before I started making a fuckton of shit for him#“I cut off my face and put a tv in its place” still baffles me to this day like my guy what happened#What caused him to suddenly snap like that after so long I really wanna know#He also probably killed his dad.#There’s nothing that insinuates that at all that’s just a headcanon until proven otherwise#If you’re mentally fucked enough to replace your head with a tv you’re fucked enough to kill your parents#ESPECIALLY if you have a vendetta against them#Oh fun fact: that’s an edited silhouette pic of me with white dead eyes replacing my actual ones#I wanted to make the child puzzles more realistic for a better result and because it looked cooler and more unnerving#So I just dressed up the best I can like him and did that

I know everyone wants gay eddie (or bi or demi or whatever), but do you guys think there is a chance they pull a Ianto from Torchwood for him?
“It’s not men. It’s just him. It’s only him.”
#911 abc#eddie diaz#buddie#and sure that quote is a product of its time#but i think the possibility is there#considering theyre struggling to label buck as bi

Sometimes I remember lee know saying he wants to do a song with Seungmin and I.N bc he'd like to be a part of vocalracha and then I remember that was well over a year ago and there's still nothing.... </3
#cmonnnnn#those dudes all have been getting vocal lessons for 5 million years and have yet to get a proper song together its kinda funny#and by funny i actually cannot conceptualise the thought process of the larger skz team at jyp sometimes#like it doesnt have to be a 3racha production...... the covers and solos are p frequently done outside that so like....#?#lee knows love me or leave me cover popped off when it got released sometimes i dont really know what their managers are doing lmao#like people talk about how busy they are and they are super busy but also im p sure they cpuld have made a vocal unit song at some point in#the past year#but also they could have released the solo songs from dome tour at any point so once again its just that thing of not really understanding#jyp management and why they dont hop on some opportunities that seem fairly logical#like they better release the new songs this time around people have clearly shown a thirst its just weird#like the joke is skz is behind on trends but like. this isnt an skz member thing its a larger management thing and its a bit confusing#id presume theyd release the new solo songs maybe at the end of the tour but they didnt release the dome ones yet so its like.....#Hmmmmm#we will see i suppose

OMORITOBER DAY 14: LIBRARY
i like to imagine spirit mari tossing down her favorite memories for omori to read while peeking around to see omori's reaction :3
i was thinkin of drawing her too, but honestly i wasnt very sure what pose to do and i was a bit tired !!
thanks to @/ntrogensolar for the omoritober prompt list!
extra rant in the tags ab why this isnt a full piece!
#artists on tumblr#omori#omori fanart#omoritober#inktober#ez_draws#ez_rants#so heres the deal#i get very tired easily with the whole onyl certain amount of 'spoons' per day thing#i spend most of my time doing my homework#and after that i feel like ive gotta finish the drawing for the day#this means i subconsiously sacrifice time doing things that i truly wanna do including spending time with my friends and doing other things#if i prioritize doing the things that i want to do a little more than this challenge#it ends with me kiiinnddaaa staying up pretty late trying to finish the art#and also lower quality art in general!#however i dont wanna quit the challenge just yet; we'll see how things go but for now i was thinking just doing a sketch! it allows me to-#still do a daily drawing which is great for someone who sometimes goes months without drawing and still not burning myself out on the dail#for example - this drawing took about an hour even though i took my time! and i was also able to spend time with friends and family and-#still be productive! i know i dont have to explain myself; its my art after all but yk i like to explain stuff especially when in relation#to my art! i wanna make sure the art i make is something i truly enjoy and not a plaguing responsibility- so i'll be adapting this-#challenge to my own needs! anyway thats all- sorry for the long rant! and congrats to the people who have enough time and motivation to do#the full challenge!!!#ok byebyeee! and i might be posting more silly sketches in my free time!#rant over <3

Sometimes I think Dan and Phil are totally platonic besties and then other times I’m convinced they fuck on the daily. I think they do it on purpose and it’s honestly iconic.
kind of the best thing is that they are that and everything in between. you can tell they just like being around each other. they've made content together for 15 years and the large majority of it was done in the strictly platonic sense for their audience. and they were still having so much fun with it. we're in the 'we know you know' era now so we get to see flashes of different dynamics they have, but they absolutely have more we Don't get to see bc they're not for us.
they like each other. stupidly fond of each other. spending time together doesn't feel exhausting. they're best friends and each others' harshest critics while being the biggest hypeman and also safe space.
dnp's relationship with us, their audience, always has been and always will be different than any other content creators. part of it is how they accumulated it, but another part is just the massive history we have with them. they Get us. they Know us. they're silly goofy sarcastic guys who love us and hate us sometimes. theyre grateful but careful too. they like to rile us up, just like they do each other. it's a love language, teasing, and we've shown positive responses to it over the years. i like to say that my relationship with dnp is antagonistic sometimes--cause i know they're pushing my buttons on purpose. and ykw? it's fun! it's fun for us and it's fun for them because they have the control. i know anything they let out is cause they chose to let it out because they Know how we are. so yes they absolutely adore messing with us. we're a funny bunch.
#im getting sappy again#the things you mention anon are not mutually exclusive for dnp. which is a lot of the fun of it#like for me personally. why be in a relationship with someone who isnt your best friend. i dont know how they couldnt be your favourite ever#like maybe im projecting but theirs is probably the healthiest depiction of love i have in my life#theres movies and tv but its not real. and yes dnp are produced. and aware. and curate. but theyre not selling a relationship.#sure we perceive it. but its not the goal. the product is the entertainment value of them together cause theyre funny.#whereas almost every relationship ive properly witnessed in my life seems like. a trap. genuinely.#its like well no love isnt actually real its a concept you just. are stuck. for the rest of existence. be happy about it.#and with dnp its like oh like love is actually real. like theres a reason people want to stay together forever.#like people Do get lost in each others eyes. they get a different look on their face that reads i love you#theres people out there who will love every aspect of you and never get enough of you or your time#i am. so far off on a tangent.#anyways love dnp love the cat and mouse game we play together#dnp#c.text#dan and phil#answered

Finally finished Goodbye My Princess and I was not expecting a happy ending—this show famously does not have a happy ending, and I knew it going in—but the ending still gutted me like a fish and had me openly weeping. (Normally when I say a piece of media made me cry, I mean, “I actually teared up a little”. Not this time! Full on ugly sobbing! A lingering sense of devastation even a couple of hours later!)
I assumed at first it was going to end on that shot of Li Chengyin’s face when Xiaofeng’s brother carries her lifeless body away, which would honestly have been bad enough. But somehow, what really pushed it over the edge for me was the coda, where LCY has, decades later, voluntarily abdicated to make way for his successor. It’s clearly the end of a lengthy tenure as emperor, and maybe even a good one, since they make a point of mentioning that it’s the first peaceful transfer of power in generations (a marked difference from the bloody succession struggle Chengyin and his brothers endured) and Pei Zhao is notably still hanging around.
But LCY is still pining for his lost Xiaofeng, and has either recent,y developed the delusion that she’s not dead, or has been clinging to that delusion ever since he watched her slit her throat in front of him and then die in his arms (straight up I do not know which is worse), and is now going to spend what remains of his life wandering in the desert searching for a woman who is forever lost to him. What was it all for, LCY? Was it worth it? (Maybe it was! I think it’s implied he was actually a decent emperor and he’s leaving the place in better condition than he found it.) But worth it or not, he’s never gotten over the price he paid for all this, never known true contentment, never stopped searching and waiting and longing for Xiaofeng in his heart. Oh my god.
#I am verklempt#Goodbye My Princess#I need my next cdrama to be less tragic than this#my heart can’t take something this gutwrenching again right away#anyway this show is a fucking MASTERPIECE#kind of an absolutely pefect piece of television in every element#top notch acting phenomenal writing and directing#gorgeous production values#a story that does NOT shy away from its heavier material#made full use of its episode count too! the director’s cut at least#the editing/pacing was so solid and there was ne’er a wasted episode or scene#this show was just so good at being the kind of story it wanted to be#the romance and the tragedy and the situation were all so perfectly inextricable from one another#the love was always doomed#no escaping it#they would have been better off never meeting#and yet even their meeting was unavoidable#and once they met they would surely fall in love#the whole river of oblivion makes it clear#knowing each other and loving one another causes them both unimaginable pain#but nothing they can do#even Eternal Sunshining themselves#can stop them from meeting and falling in love again#and repeating their own tragedy a second time#god this show is perfect

When my job required me to be in person: Oh no I'm sick! I have to use my time off because I can't work. 😡
When my job lets me work from home: Oh no I'm sick! And I still have to work cause I can work from home. 😡
#its just like a sore throat and mild cough +tired#if i was Sick proper id have used my sick leave#but at least i cant get anyone sick over teams#but im 20 minutes into work and already want a nap#if my boss wasnt out on vacation#or i had any coworkers#you know id be back in bed now#this is not going to be a productive day#working from home has its draw backs for sure#like snow days arent a thing#a considerable part of me wants to just put in the sick time and be like#if HE NEEDS ME <- points at my manufacturing worker I'LL ANSWER#EVERYONE ELSE. GO AWAY

i'm in part charge of recruiting people for my department at work, and for our hiring offer we were about to write "minimum of [x years] of experience required," but i remembered how people with audacity will apply regardless of what it says, but that wording will push away potential employees, especially women, who are considerate and value the time of both others and themselves, and think they can't apply if they have, let's say a few months less experience than what we required, so i asked it to be switched to "around [x years] of experience required." and it's such a small change but it makes a big difference. and man idk what my point is but often it's good when you listen to people and their problems, so you might come up with low/no effort ways of helping even if it's just a little bit, instead of going "well that shouldnt be a problem, you should just act/do/etc. different"
#and sure it is good advice to apply for jobs as if you were a white etc man with audacity but polite#but i think employers should think more#a co worker of mine applied for a job she didnt really want to see that companys application process and to hear more about them#in case she was interested. and what she brought back from that is how we can make our recruiting more#productive and nicer for people applying#bc the recruiting process is a lot of work but whats even more work is apllying for jobs and its good to give#an explanation to Why someone didnt get chosen so they can potentially learn from it#also less importantly ig being polite also makes us look better but thats whatevs#our old boss liked to interview ppl with barely any experience for our summer jobs so even if they werent the right fit for us#theyd still get interview experience. which. man you cannot have enough of that.#and dw were not wasting anyones time by interviewing someone were not even mildly interested in hiring#we just work a job where its easy to make the recruiting process fruitful for the summer hires and like to give chances to#even those with no experience bc they might surprise you#i mean i had no IT experience before my first IT summer job and now im in big projects and hiring ppl for the same place etc lol#but yea the original post was not about summer hires bc we do not require them to have any experience ofc#thatd be cruel#anyways good night before i ramble on enough to doxx myself#leevi talks

Does the fact that DP now has an official canon continuation affect you while working on the comic
Like does the new canon stuff influence your own vision or has your vision for your reboot remained the same since you started?
Sorry it's taken so long to answer so I'll match with a long answer and update in my process, I'm so sorry lol
But no, an official canon continuation will not stop me from making the comic. And while I do own the new comic and plan on getting all the future official DP merch I can get my hands on, it wont effect my story in the slightest because I haven't read it. Plus I've already written my story and I'm very happy with it. I will someday read the new comic but not anytime soon, I'm just so happy it exists and that it's in my hands either way.
What might stop me (for a little bit at least) is a full on rebooted series, not a continuation/revival because the fandom has been around so long and we've all influenced each other in big or little ways. And since we're all playing in the same sandbox there's naturally some overlap. But this started as a pitch bible/proof of concept for a full on reboot of my own and if there's an active reboot airing I'd be very sad it wasn't mine (so silly I know lol but it's true).
What has stopped me is the a back and forth issue I have on the comic in general. I have found a style of comic I enjoy making, but I have gotten in my own head about it being stiff and bad. I know practice make progress and I'm getting more confident about it and also considering making it into a fic with art and slowly adapting it into a comic just so I can have some thing to post and put out there. But my iPad is dying and outside of sketches on paper I haven't been able to write or draw to the extent I'd like. I've been saving for a new one for a while now and about half way there but life happens and it takes a toll on my savings. So I'm trying to decide what's the best way to proceed and I have a lot of options and that's also a little overwhelming, which sounds silly typing out. But it's easy for me to feel guilt every time I try to commit to one game plan because all my best options rely on me getting a new iPad
#ask me anything#danny phantom reboot planning#going ghost comic#goingghostcomic#its been hard saving for an ipad lol#i have to take care of bills and my mom#plus im slowly getting merch to open a shop#and hopefully that'll help too#all ipad time i can get has been to prep merch for sale#im at over 40k words at the halfway point of my second detailed draft#one more sweep and it might be fic ready#i just haven't decided whats the best route to take because I have SO MUCH in the concept and rough stages still#i might be bitching and moaning in the tags about money#but im sure as hell not going to ask for it unless I have something solid and tangible in return#but this is why my art production has functionally halted#sorry for using your ask as an infodump update#ive been hesitant to make one because I dont want to let anyone down#not you or my followers or myself

Hello, fellow D&D players of tumblr! Do you have an Eberron campaign coming up, and the official subraces just aren't cutting it? Do you look at ordinary planetouched, and wish that they had more of a connection to their mundane, non-human parent? Or have you looked at planetouched and wished they had more of a connection to Eberron's planes? Consider using one of the 31 subraces in this book! These have been created for aasimar, dwarves, elves, gith, genasi, gnomes, halflings, and tieflings.
If you're looking for more character inspiration, consider checking out one of the premade Eberron characters I have created - all are 100% RAW as per Rising from the Last War and the 2014 Player's Handbook.
#eberron#d&d#d&d 5e#dungeons and dragons#dungeonsandragons#dungeons & dragons#dnd#dnd5e#d&d subrace#dnd homebrew#d&d homebrew#homebrew#my homebrew#and now for the real reason why i'm reposting this bc i'm sure some of you have seen this on my tumblr before:#black friday#idk if my stuff will be involved in any sales but please consider throwing a couple dollars my way#the pregens are pay-what-you-want so if you want to send me a different amount than what planar subraces is being sold for then that's a#good way of doing so#(i scheduled this back in october to post at what is supposedly an optimal time hence why idk if my stuff is on sale)#and if for whatever reason you *don't* want one of my eberron products: if you have anything you want to buy on DM's Guild or one of its#sister sites like DriveThruRPG please use my affiliate link (aka all the links in this post) so that some of your money will go to me#instead of wotc or another corporation (the creator will get the same amount of money from royalties regardless of if you use my link)
