In the past, people in the Animal Crossing community would make fun of Tom Nook as a sleazy landlord. Since then, he's really rehabilitated his image as this 'heart of gold' businessman (he's the one who puts bells and furniture in trees for you to find! he adopted orphans! he donates to charity!), but New Horizons genuinely paints the most devious version of him.
He's successfully privatized settler colonialism: you pay HIM to move to a "deserted island" (which apparently the oceans in the AC world are just full of) and start a colony that he is directly invested in. At best he's running a weird vacation package scam (you arrive on the island with no money and in debt for "using his services"). At worst, he's using you to set up company towns. For god's sake, he literally has his own fake currency that he forces you to use to pay off your debt. But don't worry, he's repackaged it in a way that definitely doesn't sound like an MLM scam: the Nook Mileage Program!
You're no longer just his tenant or his temporary part-timer, you're his business lackey. The entire tutorial section of the game has you spending actual weeks running around completing tasks and doing hard labor to set up his colony. You're even tasked with preparing his properties and finding buyers for them. No, you aren't a tenant anymore. You work for the landlord. You are directly responsible for finding tenants for him. And he doesn't even fucking pay you. Not for setting up town hall and museum, or his nephew's shop –– which is the ONLY store on the entire island that sells necessities –– or bringing KK Slider to town, or helping populate his town. Not a single cent. No, actually, you have to pay HIM to BUY infrastructure like bridges and stairs and park benches. And all the while, he's telling you're the "resident representative"; you get to call the shots! That the reward is the community's progress. That what you're doing is in everyone's best interest (but most importantly, his).
Since NH's release, people have done a lot of legwork to say that Tom Nook isn't a capitalist while the game shows him at his very worst. He owns the only general store in town. You're forced to use a phone that he modified and branded as his own. Buy Nook-branded furniture and merchandise at the self-serve kiosk in the town hall, a governmental building! There's no conflict of interest here!
But hey, if you're tired of being the landlord/business mogul's goon, you can also find work as a deluxe resort home designer for a company that also pays you in their special company currency that can only be used to buy their products instead of a real salary! Because that's what the Animal Crossing franchise needs! More vacation homes!!!
#this is a really long winded way to say i really really really really hate new horizon's storyline and player role#i really hate that not only your house but the entire TOWN. the whole COMMUNITY you're a part of is owed to tom nook's business#i really hate the “vacation getaway package” angle because it shows just how commercialized the entire premise of nh is#and how lost the game is in its original core concept#animal crossing is about the experience of moving to a new town and becoming a part of that community#just to compare: all past ac games have a similar opening#you're on a bus or train or taxi to someplace new. a stranger strikes up a conversation and you get to know them before arriving#new horizons opens with you at customer service desk filling out an client application before a flight.#in prev games working for nook in the tutorial is meant to be demeaning. you want it to be over with so you can actually start living life#but in new horizons working for tom nook IS your life. and it's so rewarding! don't you feel rewarded?#you aren't a person. you aren't a new neighbor. you're tom nook's client. and then his unpaid employee. and the game insists it's fun to be#that's how void the game is#because it's bad enough that a rpg life sim got turned into a sandbox game where you have to build the town yourself#but the only reason why you're building it is because the landlord who you're in debt to TOLD you to build it.#everything is a rewards program! everything is a tour service! be sure to do your daily tasks to earn nook bucks to spend on nook merch!#that really sucks imo.#i mean. the entire game is based around the vacationing industry. of course it all feels fake and temporary. it's only a vacation.#long post#rant#not art#god the fact that your starter villagers can't even decide where to live you have to decide for them#i've never played a game that does the opposite of handholding#where instead it's the PLAYER who has to handhold the npcs through everything. and newsflash!! it's really exhausting and boring

Wednesday, October 11.
Wholesome Wednesdays��
The observant among you will have noticed that today is Wednesday. Those with a particularly discerning eye will have noted that Wednesday begins with a "W," that most winning and fluid of letters. It is this same letter that takes its place nestled at the start of the word wholesome. And all things wholesome is what today is all about.
It is a word conducive of many things, such as a general sense of well-being, an appreciation of the simple pleasures, the irresistibly cute and cuddly, a little patience, and a touch of innocence. It's a little elusive, something of a one-size-fits-all, but what's for sure is that you know it when you see it. Lo, seeth the hearty posts plucked from the dash and enjoyeth the contented sigh that follows.
Ahh x

I have a lot of scatterbrained design notes for each of them but generally I wanted them to look similar to their original designs but with different themes. I also imagine that they have the same inscribing tools as their original counterparts but just use them differently (i.e. Magnificus paints animals, Leshy takes pictures of people as they're dying/about to die, I'm not sure what the magic equivalent for P03 would be besides maybe a spellbook that copies the essence of things, and Grimora's quill would either "write" code or write directly onto the hardware of robots).
#i initially wanted to finish these for inscryptober but stuff got in the way#misc design notes erm#leshy's death design is inspired by the actual folklore leshy and the leshens from the witcher games#i remember reading somewhere that the folklore leshy incorporates animal bones and tree bark into his own body#so that's where the main inspiration came from#the markings on grimora are meant to be a combination of patterns on porcelain china and the patterns on motherboards#p03's components aren't actually attached to anything and just float around as needed#also its different functions are powered by the mox crystals in its body#magnificus already looks like a big fuzzy animal to me so i just leaned into that#he probably has a bunch of small animals living in his fur without him even realizing#magnificus#leshy#p03#grimora#g0lly#inscryption#my art#scrybeswap

Harry's world/Bad end
Inspired by Christina's world by Andrew Wyeth
#I dont think people talk about the bad end enough#this is the social murder game you guys#i dunno#my health took a bit of a decline recently and my doctor forgot to get me a refill on my meds in time and it got me thinking#disability puts a person in such a vulnerable position#it doesnt matter how well Harry solves the case or how upstanding of an officer he tries to be#one drink is all it takes and he is left to die#he cant even run after them anymore... he doesnt even know where he lives#he's nothing but an addict to them#reduced to an animal... grovelling in the dirt#used for all hes worth and then thrown away once he cant work anymore#ive written about the bad end before and ill get back to it(after my fic about his mom is done) when i get the energy for it#its just so compelling!!#does anybody hear me???#disco elysium#harry du bois#disco elyisum fanart#my art#illustration#also some people in the fandom do NOT see disabled ppl and addicts as people and it shows#ITS THE SOCIAL MURDER GAME

Don't know if u have answered this before but
There is a lot of deer imagery in your art, is there reason for that? If so what is it? ((I like deer imagery myself so I'm curious))
No real reason other than they’re just an animal I grew up with!
When I lived in Texas there were thousands “wild” deer that were used to humans in the neighborhood I lived at and would come up to you for attention, which definitely helped form a connection/appreciation for them + I usually draw white deer because of the albino deer that lives on my parents property (there’s also an albino buck and two other albino does in the area, but I haven’t personally seen them)
++ My little pony is what made me start drawing and I never really grew out of the need to draw ungulates.
#velvet on deer antlers is sooo soft#I really do miss being able to just hang out with deer#we only ever had one buck that would come up to us. but we had hundreds of does and fawns#Texas animals were wild we lived down the street from a neighborhood that had free roaming zebras and other African game#ask#she did have an albino sibling at one point but that one didn’t make it

idk man i just think lucy, as narrator and protagonist, convinces the audience that l&co is a teen supernatural adventure story with hints of romance, but that is true for her and only her. for george it’s a criminal minds/house md case of the week narrative where he solves ghost mysteries with his sword carrying sidekicks. for inspector barnes it’s a political drama about the inner workings of the british bureaucracy. for flo bones it’s a sitcom. and to lockwood, life is a romantic comedy in which he is the star
#mine#lockwood and co#from a a watsonian perspective the Problem is so entrenched in young people’s lives that Lockwood can’t conceive of a romcom w/out ghosts#but from a funny perspective: he wakes up every morning and chooses to ignore the ghosts in order to think only about his love life#which btw is nonexistent. mans has no game#quill kipps is in a sports anime but the sport is ghost hunting

Maybe an unpopular opinion but I don't think non-herding breeds should be allowed to take herding tests.
#its all fun and games except that there are other animals involved that are being stressed out for your game#its the same to me as doing bitesports with a retriever#so disrespectful to the breed you have#why do you want to get them to do the opposite of what they were made for???#i know this is unpopular and i dont care#i am so happy ckc hunting sports are gatekept#if you want to do herding then get or borrow a herding breed#or play treiiball so your dog herds balls instead of sheep#those are actual living animals and your poodle is controlled chasing not herding#ill get off my high horse but ill stand here brushing it while making eye contact at you#(you being the person bragging about it in the local dog group)#dogblr#dog sports
