i wish i was better at math so i could make a pretty spreadsheet of all the nhl players that came from the chl that were w vs q vs o and like. their fighting statistics in the w/q/o vs the nhl and which chl league produces the most/worst enforcers
#this lives in my head rent free i think about it all the time#it's a lot like that child development theory of fenced in playgrounds#if you put a fence around a playground children will explore and use the entire playground and run up to the edge of the fence#but if you don't they'll stay super close in to the playground and not explore very far out of fear#like very few will wander#jayposting#nhl#chl#whl#ohl#qmjhl

this is the iconic dinosaur horror jurassic park wishes it was
#so there's this person on twitter who is like an infamous drama starter and got a whole forum shut down once#and they wrote this (different) book that's one of the greatest so bad it's good things i've ever read#a few great things that happen in that:#characters get in a car crash and flee on foot. later it's casually mentioned one character had both her legs amputated 'due to fractures'#the character pretending to be american by wearing maga hats that have spy gear built into them#the spy gear in question is an alarm that blares if someone lies in their vicinity#'stuff protocol ' said the queen. 'i'm getting hammered tonight'#the chapter where the prime minister is trying to watch the news so she keeps wandering into bars and tv shops and getting kicked out#the dragon that's casually described as 'about the size of 1000 elephants'#the dragon that's a 'dog dragon hybrid with a chihuahua body and a giant dragon head'#the dragon that's owner punched it in the face and only lets people approach if they 'do the iconic royal wave'#the characters being described as 'the short one' 'the guy with the beard' etc#but there being a lengthy detailed description of the characters in harry potter#'apparently a dragon had burnt essex to cinders in a matter of minutes'#anyways i found out they also wrote (a political parody of indiana jones???) for this book of kids short stories years ago#and you know. we needed to know#so it took me like 4 months to track this precious lost media down#which was very worth it because it turns out it's full of many other iconic gems like CELLAR HELL by Elizabeth Elgie (12)

been trying to do some pixel art bc after putting another 60+ hours into stardew valley the want to make a stardew like game but *my* way is strong again ... but i keep getting hung up on thinking about game mechanics (screenshot at the bottom .. sorry for makign this so long again ..)
at some point i thought the whole minecraft aspect is probably impossible to add into a 2d pixel game and im better off to cut that idea out of my head and instead make a dedicated area in which you can build stuff more costumizable and make the rest a more static thing id built so the worlds have more character and theres less problems with NPC pathing (since i dont want you to be able to escape Eadryas wrath if you overstay your welcome by building yourself into a circle or collision boxes .... though they would destroy anything in their path to you either way.. still)
but then i still want you to be able to change the ground in your little area (or maybe multiple ... idk im still conflicted bc i like the idea of finding a place and building your lil hut there ... unless i make it so you can build a hut anywhere but change the ground tiles only in certain areas ... ) and build little ponds and stuff ... so im back to the minecraft in 2d problem
i keep getting into these thinking spirals bc i dont want to draw all those sprites if im gonna scrap it all again anyway
the main point with this little ...... well, lets call it fantasy bc im not confident this 'project' will fare any better than any of my other projects (im a never finished a single project and keeps being haunted by it kind of guy and i hate it)
- is that i want a 2d game somewhat similar to stardew but set in my original story world and focused on the environment and nature, not on earning money, an intricate weather system and no time limit on your day, the twist being you are an ex-demon hunter and are on probation to prove you really abandoned the cause, given shelter and a place to stay in the demon world within the protective bubbles around gates into the human realm (bc humans cannot live in the normal environment of the demon world- this is an already long established thing but works extremely well to limit the space you are able to go in a game without making the world feel tiny plus allows me to give you several different environment designs bc those are gates and bubbles in different parts of the demon world) your task being to help clean up the poisoned land the celestials had caused and repopulating these parts with plants etc. ... there is a tracker that lets you know how well or bad it is doing and if you only destroy instead of restore (like chopping down all trees without planting new ones) you will be given warnings until Eadrya shows up and kills you since you are clearly still working to destroy their lands after all
i still really like this idea but im really doubtful it will go anywhere since i am so slow, need to learn at least two complicated new things (coding, music making) and already have so many things i want to do but never really .. do, the task is just too daunting and it keeps me from just having fun drawing pixel art bc i cant stop (over)thinking about mechanics
(see this is what i mean my brain just cant stop, it just keeps going and it keeps making me spiral into these thinking loops that prevent me from actually doing anything )
this is the same file i have been randomly doodling sprites on since april (by far not the only one, but the current one of multiple sprite tests i keep updating or changing)
(i appreciate feedback or thoughts on this alot, its a little fantasy that i keep comign back to, all my attempts to throw it out of my head in hopes of clearing up some space have failed no matter how little hope i have of making it a reality ..)
#ganondoodles#art#pixelart#...i dont even dare to tag this as gamedev#i dont have the right for that#barely made a character move once in a glitchy way and i have long forgotten how#none of these sprites are finished#the weather system is especially dear to my heart#bc i want it to be somewhat as dynamic as botws#the trees swinging in the wind ... rain and cloudy weather changing throughout the game#not time limits so you can wander around and enjoy the world with little restriction#inventory would also be more like botw#in which you can colelct everything and have it all with you at time instead of having to manage it like in stardew#few characters in the hubworld and soemtimes some in the overworld#since this is a very lonely place and very few demons are left#anyway ... sorry for babbling on about this again#i just cant seem to be able to let it go ...............

pmd game but instead of the hero and partner having a home base of some sort, they're more nomadic... major plot beats would happen in the various towns they stop in... lots of focus on the different sights around the continent... it's about the journey not the destination etc...
#''this sounds very 8path-inspired'' it is. but also a little psmd-inspired#basically i wish there was more focus on non-town and non-dungeon areas in pmd...#like. outside of save points there's not many times you wander around natural areas y'know...#gates did this really well with the in-dungeon puzzles. i wish there was more of it. and more puzzle solving in general#the pmd world is such a perfect place for this kinda thing y'know?#in the concern of too many NPCs or too few important NPCs i suggest that hero & partner are part of a caravan or traveling show#op#pmd

I think its somewhat telling that the gnosis was placed inside the shouki no kami rather than scara containing it in his chest the same way that venti did with his gnosis. I get that its probably more so because scara needed a much grander body for his god form and the electro gnosis just so happened to be at the centre of it… but i cant help but think of it as the games way of telling us that he truly is not fit to contain the gnosis, even in peak form when all his powers are unleashed, he still needs to build a whole new body as the gnosis’ vessel, that the so called “heart” he thought was rightfully his would not actually make him satisfied or fulfilled, as it seems to be the embodiment of all of scara’s obsessions
#erm i feel like this is all very obvious but im just now thinking of this#bc i was thinking about scara and his constant yearning for a heart…. ok#sorry to be that one guy pointing obvious things out and acting like its some grand discovery 🥺😞 lolol#that being said i was kinda disappointed that the shouki no kami was his boss form#like dont get me wrong i love his eva mech with all my heart#but i always wanted a sort of… idk true form of HIMSELF the same way tartaglia and signora had them#not saying foul legacy is childes true form and yadda yadda yadda but like… i cant explain ig#foul legacy… crimson witch of flames… and whatever happened to arlecchino in her bossfight is what i was expecting with scara#i mean king for not fitting in with all the others but#cmon man… i wanted you to go plus ultra or whatever… did ei not install you with like a function where you go all raiden mei and grow a few#cm taller and grow beautiful breasts or something… not even like a raiden shogun tru puppet form or anything…#i wanted to see my king not eva mechs ok imosrry#still love shouki no kami tho dont even joke about it lads#scaramouche#wanderer#wanderer genshin#genshin impact#genshin

#beautiful things list in the tags#so i can remember a day that seemed full of them#going to the religious bookstore and finding lots of things (the beautiful advent wreath!)#quick trip to the library and picking up a couple of middle grade books on a whim#(short things that don't add much to the overwhelming tbr but add a bit of joy into the options list)#going to wendy's and getting a lime coke#listening to fascinating religious history things that opened up new ideas and made new connections with what i'd been reading#wedding dress shopping with my sister#in a cute little shop with nice staff#where i felt like my input was helpful#wandering a bit in a city we never go to#in a rainy chilly late night atmosphere that felt very hallmark christmas movie#(in a good cozy way not in the over-the-top christmas decorations way)#thrift shopping and finding a lightweight sweater that fills a need in my wardrobe#(since we've had a warm year that limits me to only a few of my sweaters)#coming home and finding that a book i ordered had arrived#lots of lovely poem recommendations and conversations#some sights on a rainy day that filled me with that fantasy sort of awe and longing#seeing a distant shore through a fog that looked like an ancient castle rising up out of the mist#a hill of plants topped with crimson leaves that looked like a fabric or wallpaper pattern come to life#it was just a day filled with a lot of beauty#and i made a conscious effort to notice it#one of those days you want to keep

dazai arcane verse........chainsaw man verse.......
#i briefly went over his arcane verse like a week ago#chainsaw man verse........#the despair devil is the embodiment of the feelings of hopelessness and existential dread that plague humanity - that plague dazai#dazai whilst working as a devil hunter made a pact with the despair devil who found it fascinating the way in which dazai craved his own#perfect end. the despair devil being picky had taken on very few pacts in its time under capture but the pacts exist as the promise#that dazai will one day end his life - handing over his very being to the despair devil#the power it grants him comes in three forms. 1) th ability to induce feelings of deep hopelessness within others sapping their will to fig#which immobilises them as their own mental strengths are tested#2) dazai own inner feelings towards suicide manifest in a physical form - as spectral chains and nooses that can bind opponents at his will#3) the evasion of life and death. as he has signed the end of his life to the despair devil dazai cannot die unless it is at his own hand#and unless all of his conditions are met (yadda yadda double suicide with a beautiful women yadda yadda) BUT#dazai can “die” by the hand of an opponent but he will just be brought back within minutes thus i think its funny bcs he'll be sat there li#wtf......not again...... but this is like embodiment of his own lost soul and his own hopelessness#as he's forced to wander the earth without really ever feeling anything. he can also read emotion in others - those that are negative that#is and will likely be able to tell you a person/devil's worst fear (if they have one) but one of the less - impressive abilities would be#this.....#anyway..... yeah <3#still covered in bandages and still SHIT at hand to hand combat...but very good at his evasive manoeuvres and will put people out of action#using the skills he does have.........anyway <3

Me: Able to sleep in and actually not hurting for a change so no intention of getting up early.
My son at 5:30 AM: "I just saw the skunk heading for the driveway."
Cue me having to get up and remote start the car to thaw the frost so I can drive kid down to the end of the driveway and wait for the bus without worrying about the fart squirrel.
#random stuff#the cons of country living#this skunk has been hanging around for the last few weeks now#so i'm guessing it has a den nearby#getting very annoyed bc it likes to wander the front yard and driveway around the time kid walks down for bus#very tempted to have local dnr come out and set some live traps to have it relocated

Heyo, I really love your WoY doodles It totally matches from the cartoon :3
why thank you very much!! i love love love the style of the cartoon, it's full of smart workarounds and some of the best posing i have EVER seen, not to mention the gorgeous colors. it's also got the personal style of every individual storyboard artist and animator shining through pretty much every single scene... just a gorgeous show, really
#ask#txt#there's a specific animator i can always pick out#but i cannot for the life of me find the name of the person who does those shots specifically#i have a sneaking suspicion though#there are a few shots that reallly stand out like that and look very Wacky and fun and specific and make me go hmmm#like when you can tell dana terrace did the animation in a scene of gravity falls#unforch it's really hard to find super detailed production info about wander over yonder. someday i will sort through#all the information i can find and piece together a nice chunk of animators i owe my life to

Can I get an Amen.
#bit the bullet and headed towards the shaduu castle#just to get things into gear#i'd heard things about the spiky hippo by the entrance but he wasn't too bad#(though when compared to rellana i wonder if anything will be again hn)#i went back to the big pit by the coast before i headed further in and did that first just out of curiosity#as here depicted#idk so far i've had a proclivity for wandering into places beat myself through them by sheer stubborness and then find out later that#“oh you weren't supposed to go there until like twenty hours later oops”#“and now the actual area you were supposed to do will be piss easy in comparison”#i did the cave by the bonny village right before this and i swear that boss went down in three hits jesus#the boss at the very bottom right here did get me a few times those hit timings were very odd#ølden ring#lore-reason for those purple bubble snakes suddenly reappearing?#was miquella the one to lock people into gaols?#purple is apparently Trina's color after all

I can’t stop drawing tiny Watchdogs (Patreon)
#Doodles#Wander Over Yonder#Commander Peepers#Watchdog#Newsflash: They are all tiny#They're such perfect spacefillers I swear <3 <3 <3 No hells boxes here#They're all basically just stick figures with eyes in place of the head lol what more could I ask for#Or in the case of Fist Fighters then the obvious lol#Even if I do also already have some stick figures that I enjoy lol - they keep the page on-theme! Very important! Haha#Gave a go to a regular Watchdog to go with my Fist Fighter and hmmm yes this feels attainable lol - just gotta give 'em both names#They are very cute and sweet ♥#An actual full-style(? Full WOY style? Lol) for Peepers and a regular Watchdog!#Although afterwards I looked and I'm. Hm. There's conflicting information out there and I'm not sure what to believe#On the wiki he's listed as being shorter than most other Watchdogs but I did a quick screenshot comparison in The It and he was taller??#Not just taller - his eye was bigger - and I accounted for distance! The regular Watchdog was in front of him by just a few inches!#It's inconsistent enough for me to argue either way honestly#And all that not counting what Wander does to his shoes lol so all in all he's probably Slightly taller than the Watchdogs with his shoes on#Not counting special members like Moose or the Drill Sergeant - and definitely not Westley he's super tiny haha#Honestly surprised Peepers didn't take advantage of their height difference more he's a bit of a bully ♪#Rest abound as being silly little guys :) I do love how they're so easy to draw ''in colour'' haha#Red on black on red on black ♫ I suppose I could add in a yellow but pfsh don't even talk to me about the dark purple/red combo inside lol#Maybe at some point but I like them at full lighting for ease of colours haha#Cutest lads <3 Love 'em

something about cosmic horrors and space and loneliness. imagine being such a powerful, intelligent creature ... and being all alone in infinite space. the last of your kind, some forgotten civilization that no one has heard of. it's an isolating thing, to know that there will never be anyone who can really, truly understand you ... :')
#「 ▲ ⊰ the dream souls that wander / where do they wander — study. ˩#and even in his own dimension he was out of place and he percieved things no one else could...#bill is really posessive of what few relationships he does have exactly because of how rare it is for him to bond with anyone.#yeah he's narcissistic and egotistical. absolutely. he also IS a highly intelligent being that goes insane when its mind isn't stimualted.#he just.. NEEDS things to do. doesn't care about what destruction occurs he just wants to see what will happen 😇#but also?? very few things actually entertain him like he's genuinely just bored most of the time.#war crimes it is! 😩#sorry it was character analysis o'clock. i'm insane about him.

#I hadn’t posted about this but last night I found out that my cousin’s kid had gone missing while travelling with friends in Barcelona#they’d lost contact with him 24 hours earlier#and couldn’t find him anywhere#and my mum was with my cousin at the police station for a few hours while they launched an investigation#that basically went from the Victoria police > Australian federal police > interpol > Barcelona police#nobody had any idea where he was and it was genuinely terrifying#anyway I just woke up to a message from mum#saying that they found him and he was okay#his phone and wallet had been stolen#and the poor kid had been wandering around Barcelona for almost two full days trying to find the airbnb#what a massive relief#we were all so worried about him#I guess he was initially a little drunk and shaken up by having his stuff stolen#so didn’t think to wait in the last place he’s seen his friends#and by the time he sobered up he was dehydrated and exhausted and hungry so wasn’t thinking any clearer#especially seeing as it’s been pretty hot there#anyway let this be a psa reminder that if you’re visiting a country where you don’t speak the language#ALWAYS make sure you have a planned meeting point that you know how to find#in case you get into a situation like this#and at the very least learn how to ask for help in the language the locals speak#god he’s so lucky he didn’t end up passed out from heat stroke#or worse

My favorite works in no particular order:
Tipsy Tales (Anemo Boys)
Symbiosis (Ayato)
What Destiny Has Brought (Fischl)
Hello How Are You (Gorou)
Follow the Wind II (Kazuha)
Of the Same Coin (Mika)
Songs of the Wind (Venti)
Nothing Lasts Forever (Yae Miko)
Sharing a Drink They Call Loneliness (Zhongli)
Of Hopes and Prayers (Zhongli)
#about me#it actually is a coincidence that majority are from different characters and not the same#so in like manner as another list i gave a while back i shall give fun facts about each#tipsy tales - one day i will update the post to include wanderer and will not tell anyone or reblog it#symbiosis - one of my favorite readers. i just like the way they speak. i dont have a full story planned for them as of yet#what destiny has brought - in truth i cannot stand fischl. she annoys me. i only wrote this bc i wanted her to stop being so delusional#hello how are you - tbh i only like this bc i think i absolutely nailed the voice and characterization. one day i will write a sequel#follow the wind ii - probably my all time favorite work. features one of the few kisses i have ever written.#(cont) but it cant be understood without reading the first chapter and my thoughts on kazuha as a character#of the same coin - i'll be honest i just think this is cute. i think this fic has one of my highest reblog to notes ratios#songs of the wind - the vibes are good with this one. like the first chapter has good vibes but this chapter is even better. very warm#nothing lasts forever - i wanted to write yae in a moment of weakness. i think i did a good job#sharing a drink they call loneliness - the amateurness of the writing now makes me wince but.... the catharsis and ending is still top notch#(cont) i had a point i wanted to make with this fic and smashed it out of the ballpark#of hopes and dreams - probably the most romantic fic in the series and its a deleted scene lmao. still like how i wrote it though#i forgot to say that these arent necessarily my best written fics#they're just the fics i personally like the best#honorable mentions are:#telling them off (ayato)#completely covered in red (ayato)#simple (alhaitham)#follow the wind i (another one i completely nailed the voice and characterization for in my humble opinion)#secret identities and whatnot (venti/xiao)#indulgence (wriothesley)#slitherer-outer (zhongli)#i know i'm kinda feeling myself in this post but nobody is gonna read it anyway except for u slo so i'm fine with that <3

im naming a new phenomenon we've noticed in our system. Body Blindness. if the fronter in question is too similar to the body (or they lack an appearance to the point they're not visible in headspace) nobody in-sys can tell who they are when they're in front. including themselves
#link keeps getting body blindness and it's so funny bc we also have a Mirror (aka: an 'introject' of the body in some way)#who stole the name link. specifically This Link's name and appearance. like specifically the only one we ended up introjecting#taryn wandered back into front (she's been in and out all day) and was like 'WAIT who stole front from me???'#and it took link himself like two full minutes to figure it out-#we have like. branched versions of mirrors#like. if Mirrors are basically AUs of the body. then the Mirrors then have their own AUs#and like. each of the mirrors has memories of their own version of earth so they Are Alternate Universe Versions technically#like- we have the Main Four that were the original mirrors the ones who originated the term#because we have Ruby- that of the Winter universe as we called it- and in a very elaborate dream that bled into headspace#they encountered who we eventually named Faydie (pronounced fay-dee) who is from the Summer mirror#in the dream there was a perfectly square room covered floor to ceiling in dark green paint with a mirror on each wall#and the winter and summer worlds were Parallel while fall and summer were Perpendicular to them#perpendicular universes have some few intersections but are largely completely different#like in link's world (fall) where they had a similar life to Ruby but they were amab and raised as a boy#but then when they grew up they ended up with the exact same flavor of nonbinary as ruby#and then Beatrice is from spring and she's like if the body grew up neurotypical and cishet (she's very sweet and nice)#but then we have later mirror Percy (from a Different earth; the one that eventually got named Paradox)#and Percy had a parallel world counterpart that. was NOT connected to the other Mirrors. only Percy#Percy was connected to both the older ones and this new one but the new one was only Percy's#and that became Ochre#and then from Percy ejecting the Echo half of them from their human body Maxwell was spawned- the human left behind#and from Maxwell. Nate. and nobody knows where the hell nate came from but nate is only maxwell's parallel#and All Of These People experience this!!#others include skip and the Voidthings and etho for some reason#its the white hair isn't it. yeah its the white hair
