been going a little bit insane about this sentence from Ace by Angela Chen for the past week

#replace this with any other type of significant relationship too #also! this book actually rules btw i really recommend it #i didnt read it when it first cane out bc i was like. well i am already pretty familiar with asexuality and not rly interested in 101 stuff #but it turns out it doesnt feel 101-y at all its a super awesome piece of queer theory and also chen has Good opinions #and not weird watered down ones that i am sometimes wary of in aspec communities (frankly especially ace ones)#i think maybe if more people approached asexuality the way chen does (including and maybe even especially ace people)#i would be more inclined to still ID as ace #but anyways!#aro #aromantic #<- tag selections that reflect how i personally engage with this quote #also #described in alt text #also also #j tag #:/#aro media

remember when they used to put cute little fangs on the sonic character models. life was so beautiful back then

#some characters still have them like i think blaze and rouge do . but sonic knuckles shadow tails and silver had theirs removed #knuckles tails and shadow still have theirs in 2d art sometimes though #but actually i remember hearing once that its an actual rule for idw sonic that tails cant be drawn with fangs #like one of the artists did it and got notes back telling them not to do it again in future issues. or something like that. Sad !

Something something Merlin is Arthur's bane.

#i just love the idea that merlin literally fabricates the Excalibur thing to show that arthur is the chosen one. that he will unite the #land and rule albion. but it is literally. actually. all an illusion bc merlin has already damned arthur thru his actions... or rather #his inactions. becoming Arthur's bane. i wish that was the actual premis of the show in an intentional way. young merlin tries to live in a #way that's moral despite what is Known in the future. he actions are motivated by love to protect arthur but with each action we #close in around arthurs death. i wish that wasnt something thr show just stumbled into thru poor writing? early cancelation?#i dunno. we can argue all day abt the prophesy and whether or not its real or something merlin should live by #but i love the idea that it is real and true and every move merlin makes agaisnt it is a curse upon arthur. by keeping himself clean he #damns his king. delicious. rather than uh oh. uhhhh seems like merlin kinda fucked everything. oops 😬#i dunno. i just love a tragedy #merlin #bbc merlin #arthur pendragon #ugh and if merlin followed the prophecy arthur would b king but merlin would be a shadow of himself #also. did i fuck the rock up yes?#did i fuck up on the rock blood? yes #should i have gone with a rainbow swish for the sword? yes #but here we are. happy Christmas #tw blood

The posts ive seen about "I really hope the bad kids dont hurt the rat grinders :(" is giving the same energy as the hangman to fabian going "we should be nice to her cause if we just keep being nice to her then she'll stop being so mean!!"

I had a person come up to the counter today, look at my badge and go, "You're not [insert stereotypical male name here].

Which, yeah, right, true, technically, I'm not, I had the wrong badge. I forgot mine at home, and I used my coworker's one. It was the only one available and it had "[male name], he/him".

(Side note, I so so so love that our badges have pronouns on them, it's so nice! Another side note, I go by they/them most of the time, but I don't mind he/she/ze or any other pronouns)

And, usually, gender is a concept I don't have the time or brain capacity to consider. It doesn't really matter for me personally, I know I appear feminine, and I don't have a problem with customers referring to me by she/her. I mean, sure, it's nice if they look at my badge, see "Cork, they/them" and refer to me by it, but honestly, the amount of fucks I give about random people using wrong pronouns is zero.

But this person at the counter just, I dunno. Looked like they wanted a fight. And the shop was empty, and I was bored, so I was like

You know what? Sure, let's do this. It's probably the only entertainment I'm gonna have today, might as well make it as confusing as possible. Because I love to watch the world burn, sue me.

So I go, "I actually am."

"But you don't look like [male name]!"

Been there, done that, "What do I look like, then?"

Stutter. "I don't know, but you're not [male name]!"

Okay, we're just repeating ourselves now, sure, "Then who am I?"

"NOT [male name]!!! Why are you wearing a badge that has a wrong name?!"

And it was at this moment that a brilliant thought crossed my mind. So I smile, cute and nice and pretty, and I go, "Because I stole it."

"You what?"

"I stole this name from the one who had it, and now he has no name and I get to have it. Now, can I have your name for this order?" And I extend a hand to them, like asking to put something in there, because I'm now committing to the bit. All while looking them in the eyes and keeping the smile.

They ended up leaving without ordering anything, but they also didn't speak to me after that, so that's a win, overall. And the manager laughed at that, so I'm not even in trouble.

The moral of the story? When in doubt, play by the fae rules.

I didn't even lie, technically speaking.

#cork life #fae rules #fae #pronouns #nonbinary #thats the shit you get for being rude to people #and for sticking your nose where youre not supposed to #its actually really fun to ask people “who am i?” when they say youre not who youre presenting as #gender is bullshit #gender is a side dish #not the main course

Teeth?

uhm wait-I think the way you draw teeth is really interesting is there any tips that you can give us?

I use a veterinary model for reference!! It really helps me with getting weird angles and better understanding how the teeth are laid out

#I try to have all the refs I use be images ive taken or models I actually own #gives me alot more freedom with posing and altering #Im a graphic designer for Budweiser as my day job and they rlly drill into you about never using random images you find online for anything #so I just have that rule carry over to my actual art too #coz you know whats worse than bad anatomy? getting sued!#Pexels and Unsplash however are great free to use images websites if you cant get hands on models #its just a lot more limited on what you can find #ask

older designs for my specialest guy

#you actually could pay me to watch boruto the payment is reviving any of madara-obito-itachi in a cheap fan service moment. itd work on me 👍#neji hyuga #hyuga neji #art #fanart #naruto #2024 #i think konoha would love to project the will of fire shit onto neji after what he did. ya know. trying to give your life 'for the village'#in that way hed probs have a lot of respect from others but respect has never been enough when your life still isnt yours 😛#the pessimism would likely take a bit to return to him but it Would return hes just like. less interpersonally volatile #the realization you had two whole very public meltdowns and no one that matters cared will do that to you #anywayfor the happy ending one. i think while neji is always going to be a little bit bitchy hes bound to soften up a lot when he's not #under constant stress and has to micromanage his every thought #i like to think that if he were allowed to hed grow into a very outwardly warm person. sunflower :)#and my general opinions of neji and boruto are:#1. yes it is a blessing to not be made to be straight married #2. however consider: what if i wanted to see neji be a dad. i dont care for romantic njten but i do not hate it. it would be acceptable #when i think abt this guy in boruto hes chronically single but still.talking about what CANON could be. it would be acceptable #3. yes hiashi shouldve gotten his ass killed in the war but i would be lying if i said the awful family reunions #are not fun as a concept #are they fun on purpose? no #but the rule is: A situation can suck if it sucks on purpose #and 4. i know about the time travel episode i have mixed feelings on it.#anyway no hate if you like boruto i like being hyperbolic for fun but its just anime. the kids seem cute #but if any other hyuga-brained person ever wants to get unimaginably angry you should also watch the hiashi birthday episode of boruto #thats my special recommendation from me to you

I just read a pilot for a TV show that two incredible people are trying to get made and HOO HOO! OH HOH! I can't tell you who either of them are or what the show is about but DAMN! I hope this gets made! I hope I get to be in it! HAHA, EXCITING! SICK, EVEN!

#one of the cool things about being in the acting industry is getting to see all the cool stuff that people *want* to make #before it gets all its edges sanded off in development to make it more commercially appealing #I get to read some raw uncut scripts #And be like OOOOOO oh my gosh imagine if this actually got MADE #before all the cis gatekeepers say “Hm but does the trans villain need to be quite so aggressively trans? Is this alienating people?”#YES IT IS AND IT RULES

Halloween prompts year 2 day 18

Danny raced through the ghost zone in a panic, how had he missed this? Appearently vlad had released Pariah Dark from his coffin again and got smeared into a paste. The mad king had then went into another dimension, hoping to conquer it and gain more power and skeleton soldiers only to be met in battle by a group of powerful warriors calling themselves the Justice League. Vlad had somehow survived the initial butt kicking and tried to use ghost tech to finally take the king down.

Unfortunately for him, pariah saw him coming in the reflection of a lady warriors blade and killed him.

Somehow the fight dragged on halfway across the US until they got to New Jersey where some billionaire guy was hosting one of his kids 18th birthday bash at his mansion. Pariah appearently crashed threw the roof, a hero dropped the weapon they had taken from Vlad and, in an effort to save his family, Brucie Wayne took the weapon and warned Pariah not to come any closer to his kids.

Pariah mocked him and raised his weapon to a young man with a white streak in his hair they was spayed across the floor in a daze.

Next thing anyone knew the King was dead.

Bruce Wayne had killed the previous king in single combat.

Bruce Wayne was the new Ghost King

Bruce Wayne was sitting on the throne in Pariahs keep looking very unsettled.

Crud. Danny needs to keep this guy and his kids safe doesn't he?
