📰Khawla's Family Campaign Update: 38📰

Only $18 away from $5,500 as a short term goal!

$4,518 away from $10,000 as the next target. It's the halfway mark!

If about 750 people donated $20 we'd reach the $20,000 initial goal as soon as possible!

Please consider donating even just $5 or $10 if you can, and keep spreading the campaign around so that more people who can donate may see it!

In Defense of the Phandom (Mostly): Dan, Phil, and Our Parasocial Social Club

Refer to my previous pinned post for an explanation of and outline for this project. Now that I'm done going through my old reblogs (god, it took forever), it's time to actually research and write this script! Finally, my favorite part of any project. This will be my pinned post for the foreseeable future, so you can come back to by clicking on my blog for the current status of this part of the process. There will be a similar post for filming and editing once I get to that point, but for now, you can glance at how "full" the bar below each section is for a quick idea of where the script is. Or you can expand the post to see more details.

More details below the cut!

Research → peer reviewed or published literature:

I read a few things (like Haidt's The Anxious Generation) while I was in the process of searching academic databases, but most of the 403 works I have saved to Zotero for this are currently unread. They're not all the same length or will take the same amount of time to read, so the completion proportion is just getting updated based on vibes. I'm absolutely not referencing all 403 of these things in the script - I just cast a wide net for materials I thought might be relevant. Furthermore, there are some things I didn't save that I know I'll be referencing, like some of the Pew Research Center's work in the early to mid 2010s on teenagers and technology, or the journalistic coverage of what got my school district in huge trouble in 2011.

Research → Social media and forum archives:

The collection of posts, art, and fic (other than mine) to reference in the video. For regular posts and art, especially by people who have long since abandoned their accounts or whose content went pretty viral, I feel comfortable just showing things in the video with credit as examples. For fic, I intend to just discuss trends more broadly and vaguely since, as a fic writer myself, I know we tend to get more flack and less acclaim for our work and therefore prefer to stay out of the spotlight. Let me know if you think I should handle this differently - the academic impulse is to credit sources and reproducible searches for every single thing you do, but that's definitely not best practice for phandom history since we have so much "forbidden" lore. I'll also be reading the IDB forum front-to-back, listening to things like the phandom podcast, reading the current generation of phanzines, and looking at recent (and historical, if anyone has any) surveys done of phannies within the community. I'm assuming those folks would appreciate credit and/or a shoutout.

Research → The great rewatch:

Rewatching everything DNP-related so I can talk about it from more recent memory (and read what's left of the original comments for DNP videos that are still up at their original locations). I know there's a playlist for this but I also know it's incomplete, so I have been doing some poking around myself and will probably continue to.

Research → Discussions with other phannies:

I read a few things (like Haidt's The Anxious Generation) while I was in the process of searching academic databases, but most of the 403 works I have saved to Zotero for this are currently unread. They're not all the same length or will take the same amount of time to read, so the completion proportion is just getting updated based on vibes. I'm absolutely not referencing all 403 of these things in the script - I just cast a wide net for materials I thought might be relevant. Furthermore, there are some things I didn't save that I know I'll be referencing, like some of the Pew Research Center's work in the early to mid 2010s on teenagers and technology, or the journalistic coverage of what got my school district in huge trouble in 2011. The first task is to sort that whole Zotero collection into more manageable sub-collections (on PSR on PSIs, on mental health, on YouTube platform history, etc), which is what I'm currently working on.

Writing → Introduction, background, and conclusion sections

See old pinned post for the outline. Will expand details here once research is mostly done (I plan to read and watch everything in the research section aside from talking to other phannies, then complete the script's rough draft, then talk to others on call, then integrate that with and finalize the script).

Writing → 2009-2013

See above.

Writing → 2014-2018

See above.

Writing → 2019-2025

See above.

Writing → Long tangents (fandom, RPF, and PSRs/PSIs)

See above. These tangents are kind of mini video essays in and olf themselves, so I may write them while I'm reading through my saved stuff in Zotero and before I rewatch all the DNP videos.

my old blorbos are back in my brain

heart pirates my absolute beloved. shame theyre chillin somewhere in the ocean lol (do not mention the pre-time skip hats of penguin and shachi I'm still attached even tho its already been a million years since then)

anyway every time i remember that Law and Kid are assigned german and Scottish by Oda i gain one hundred years

[pinacoladamatata]

trying a very different approach to color ala tim mcburnie style and it's making me melt. figured i'd share it bc Idk it's more complicated but I like the way it's making me think/plan

thumbnail and rough sketch that i liked so much i turned it into....

and then made several color thumbnails/messed around w them for awhile

until finally settled on this one

and then

so the current foliage lines look like this and they're on 11 different layers (i'll merge some to be back, mid and forground in a bit)

(i also started on solas' head just ignore it for now)

and next step is really spend more time on the construction layer for lavellan and the wolf statue (solas is ready to be lined bc i drew him first)

then color with flats using quick masks instead of by hand like i'm used to c:

this is all wayyyy more layers than i'm used to but I do kind of like it so far; particularly the color thumbnail and construction layer/phase part

I need an update! Please! Little nightmare channel change

Hiiiii sorry things have been really crazy, I got a new job that is full time now, and may need to move next year, so I'm trying to do some research on what I can do and where I can go for that..... so I've had significantly less time for my typical art things at the moment... As for Little Nightmares Channel Change, I'm roughly on page 28/67. I think once I get to page 35, this time, I'm gonna start releasing one page every two weeks instead of all at once, that seems to be more enjoyable for people, on top of them having to wait less while I'm still working on the other pages. So I'm hoping to start releasing stuff no more than two months from now, if not a little earlier depending on how my schedule goes.

[the-one-with-spider-brainrot]

Cult of the lamb updated so yknow what that means? thats right more doodles of this fam and this fam alone yippee!!

I was not expecting the crown to jumpscare talk to me so now it gets a personality that’s fun

[thecryptidart1st]

Hey everyone,

In light of Tiktok's ban in the US, I decided to say screw it and got a Rednote account

This is how I introduced myself as an artist

Honestly, this is not a good start to my 30th year of existence, what with this ban happening, our dumbass president elect still being allowed to be president, and the fires in LA driving my anxiety to 5000%. I dipped my toes into Red Note/Red Book because everyone on Tiktok had positive reviews of it so far, and honestly, it's been a nice place to catch my breath.

Like yes, this is an app where everyone primarily speaks Mandarin and yes, this is an actual Chinese controlled app, so they do have to follow regulations and restrictions from their government on what can be posted. But the people who I've come across on this app are genuine people who have been very welcoming of us Americans fleeing TikTok, are very interested in learning a lot of America and practicing their English, and just like absolutely adore cats? (There are so many users demanding cat photos, it's been referred as 'the foreign cat tax') And everyone from America has so far been very respectful and taking the time to learn/translate Mandarin to communicate with everyone ^^ It's been a nice cultural exchange so far

And it's small, but I've found the FNAF community overseas :)

In terms of the future, Tumblr is probably gonna be my dominant social media now, as I can't trust Instagram or Twitter. And based on what's allowed on Red Note, I think most my content will clear, as long as I don't show explicit gore or gay sex, but that's what Patreon shall be for ;) It will probably take significantly longer to post onto RN just cause I have to translate for their audience. I will still have my Youtube, and I will probably make a seperate channel on YT for all my doll collecting videos from TikTok :c

Trying to take it a day at a time for now at least and get back in the groove of producing comics and art ^^

[cupcakeshakesnake]

I am wondering if I'm nonbinary or agender.

Wondering very hard

If I ever come to a conclusion (read: never) I will let you know via a very faint flag overlay on my icon

[satsuha]

it's new year's eve! looking back at 2024 this was one of the most stable years i've had in a while which was nice actually. project and art-wise i'm really happy i finally got to make a calendar since it's something that's been on my mind for a really long time!!

as for 2025 plans, i'll be boothing at doujima sg in may so the first few months will be dedicated to merchmaking... it'll probably be mostly aa stuff, with a bit of drgl and loz/fe if i have the time! here's a wip i posted a few days ago on other platforms

i'm also in the beginning stages of planning an aa zine/artbook that will focus on siblings growing up together... my projects tend to be quite personal with a smaller headcount so while i will probably end up opening contributor applications, slots are going to be a lot more limited than most zines. but please stay tuned if you'd be interested! i can never stay away from big projects like this it seems lol i just enjoy doing them too much

anyway i hope everyone has a nice new year's eve celebration and an early happy 2025!!
