IDEA: Black Knight is technically the Sonic version of the Middle Ages
After Middle Ages it would be Renaissance
And Sonic visits the Black Knight world, yes?
And Sonic’s present world is much more technologically advanced than our real world.
So what if, when Sonic showed up in Black Knight, he somehow made the Renaissance early? And that’s why his world in the present has advanced so quickly?

If only 12 yr old me knew there'd be a World of Goo 2
and that a motherfucking pixelated neo-noir detective subplot would be included in it
#world of goo 2#YALL IM LOVING THIS GAME SO MUCH#ITS EVERYTHING KID ME WANTED AND MORE#the OG game kinda touched on capitalism and industrialism#and now its expanded on that with “green” marketing or whatever its called#and instead of the cyberspace part like in the original#(cause that was still new for a lotta ppl esp kids)#its got like “vr” levels and MMMMMMMMMMMM I LOVE IT#and its so fucking ggood aaaAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA#one of those games where it feels like it was made for me#cause it blends so many tropes I adore#game talk#Metaltea rambles#SORRY THIS GAME WAS MY C H I L D H O O D#LET ME NERD OUT

Today I found out that "nerd out" as in 'explain in a nerdy way' isn't an actual word

Lan Wangji Goes To Lotus Pier AU: Part 5: Flip Slip.
(Part 1, Part 2, Part 3, Part 4, Part 4.5)
#poorly drawn mdzs#mdzs#mdzs au#Yungmang Jiang Training Arc AU#lan wangji#wei wuxian#digital art#Trying out some digital techniques to see if I can get closer to feel/style of my traditional comics.#So far the biggest difference is *colouring* Digital colouring feels...not good. I have complained about this before and I'll complain agai#Before we get into the sad stuff with Yungmeng Jiang in the PD-MDZS comics lets have some lighthearted fun!#Remember that if anything bad happens to these Jiang disciples in the canon comic - they are happy in this AU B'*)#I think one of the funniest things about the teenxian dynamic is how WWX accidently finds things that get LWJ to feel flustered.#My guy wwx goes 'I'm going to lightly bully/tease this nerd 'cause his reactions are funny.' and LWJ goes “My god. He's everything to me.”#Part two of the fun part of this dynamic is that LWJ is ever so lightly self aware enough to LOATHE THIS CRUSH.#Hence why I have been marinating on this 'Accidental Lan headband miscommunication' concept.#This is how LWJ assumes that WWX knows what the band means in this AU. This will be relevant later.#And YES! I am still going to be making comics for this AU. I have so many ideas I simply can't hold onto forever.

little scrapped comic bc it felt a bit ooc to me in hindsight
#tbb#the bad batch#the bad batch season 2#the bad batch season 3#tbb tech#tbb omega#i was worried that this wouldn’t really come across as i intended#i’ve heard a lot of people complain about the characterization of tech in fanon#they make him a lot less capable than he is in canon just because he is the ‘nerd’ of the team#which i totally agree with#so i didn’t want it to seem like i was doing the same#i just think that tech would have a difficultly expressing some of his vulnerability around his brothers because they are so often stoic#(and frequently make fun of one another)#and omega might be the first person he feels comfortable in letting that side of him show#idk#just a sweet idea to me#anyway i decided i wasn’t going to finish this because of my fear of being misinterpreted but i did like how these sketches turned out#so here :)#a little treat#mods art#my art#mods draws#star wars#sw tbb#star wars the bad batch

i like how she just clocks shuichi as the type of kid to sit out during PE. i bet he did.
#i bet shuichi was one of those scrawny little bookworm nerds who sat out of pe almost every class (like me.)#the salmon team responses are so funny they just say shit#theyre allowed to let their autism flourish#danganronpa#drv3#kaede akamatsu#shuichi saihara

came up with this promotional idea for my new book while I was very tired, may or may not live to regret it
(here is the book)
#into the tower#OUT NOW ACTUALLY#as a disabled author who cannot do conventions. i am simply trying to reach other nerds who might appreciate this book#this book is so on my bullshit and i love it but i DO fear publishers will never let me do another if it flops so reblogs always appreciate#solo ttrpg#cyoa

I finished posting the unabashedly educational Sword Fic.
It includes a detailed (but hopefully beginner-friendly) explanation of all the steps of making a Nichirin blade from a sunny mountain like Mt. Youkou, a touch of swordsmith and metalworker folk lore (including demons), meta about what must make Kimetsu no Yaiba's swordsmithing methods different from real life methods, some character exploration for Haganezuka and his polishing method, vocabulary and additional resources in the chapter notes, and hopefully, an endearing, silly POV character to learn this all through.
#my fics#SWORDS SWORDS SWORDS#would you like a story about the years of background of this fic?#I was not very well-versed in metallurgy until recent years but my study of the Japanese language goes back to#well#longer than some of you may have been around#I always liked samurai and swords for the aesthetic but started to take more of an interest when I lived in Shimane#and on a day when I had a friend taking me around to rural sites associated with a legendary monster she was like#let's go see the sword museum while you're out here#but that museum was closed (it comes back into this story though)#so we went to a different one that no longer exists but that was my first encounter with how much work it takes to make the sword ore#fast forward years later#I am writing this blog and it becomes known as a fun place to read about Japanese culture as seen in KnY (thanks glad you enjoy)#I decide that I must tell people how hard it is to make the ore and finally visit that main museum on a trip back to Shimane#I collect material and struggle to do more research and wrap my head around it#and I write the first version of Teppi's story that focused mostly on the smelting and glazed over the forging and polishing and stuff#meanwhile I am in a job situation I have already long since wanted out of and soon I want out a lot more desperately#job searches were disheartening but then I found THE ONE I WANTED#and on that first interview when I was already like PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE#they asked if there's a Japanese cultural topic I could suddenly explain in great detail if asked#and without mentioning this blog I said I had recently written up something for fun about tatara smelting methods (and they forgot this)#fast forward again and I very happily got the job and was very nervous as I got the rundown on a very large annual nerd project#and when they announced the topics for that year I saw that tatara smelting methods in the region I knew them from was on the list#and I was like#asudyaiusdyuasdyuahduahduhsdhuPLEASE GIVE ME THAT#and i got it and when I went out there for research people were like#...why do you know all this...???????#and since I dared not mention my KnY blog I was like#...I lived in Shimane...#it seems I broke the tags because the rest of the story got cut off but hi yes you get the idea

Steve will swear up and down that he isn't a nerd but after years of hanging out with exclusively nerds and starting to get their references and make his own (he doesn't enjoy it it's just their fault for talking about this stuff all the time)
That is until they try larping for the first time and Steve is thrilled and thriving and asking when they can again because he gets to be active and physical and actually be a part of the story in a way that he can't with dnd
#steve harrington being a nerd#he asks eddie to help him plan one out#because even if steve has good concepts and a decent plan#he isnt a writer#and has no idea how to make a compelling adventure#it also is a fun way to trick a buch of nerds into working out#i dont actually know stuff about larping#but think it looks like fun#if anyone has any tips for finding wheelchair accessable larping let me know#steve harrington#eddie munson#steddie#stranger things

Permission to be a nerdy expert and deeply thirsty for two minutes.
I am begging - begging - fashion writers et al to realise that “Victorian” is a specific time period and place, not an entire century. And if you must insist on the Darcy comparison (about which more anon), then recognise that Pride and Prejudice was published in 1813, aka the Georgian/Regency period. (Victoria wouldn’t become queen for almost two decades.)
And that being said: I stand by my read of the whole look being far more 1830s European Romantic.
Now that I’ve got my nerdy twitching out of the way: I would like to hear more about the whole “making a shirt that’s nicely oversized and designed to be opened like that” design process please and thank you. 😘
#let me nerd out on this please#Victorian doesn’t mean 19th century and shouldn’t be used to refer to anything outside Britain#just say no to everything being framed in the Anglosphere#other references exist beyond pride and prejudice and the regency and I’m begging people to realise that#thank you for coming to my ted talk#pedro pascal#it’s fashion baby

Thinking about a comment I got recently saying my clothes are "peak Gen Z bad taste" or something like that. And I'm so offended :[
Like, I'm 33. Born in 1990. This is peak Millennial bad taste! Obviously!!
#very sad that the fact that i was a teenager in the 2000s is somehow not coming through like a giant flashing neon warning light#you should be able to just see my designs out of the corner of your eye and already know the truth#that i was a 13 year old hot topic mall goth and anime nerd in 2003#this has let me know that i need to become so much worse#witch vamp#text post
