sorry but i think the funniest thing shannon could do is have keefe not actually be responsible for the great gulon incident. like what if the short story came out and it was like "fitz actually did it but everyone assumed it was keefe so he covered for him"

Can I get some Human anatomy tips ? I'd Google it but I like hearing from fellow cartoony artists. If you have no tips or anything u can just ignore me :)

All you gotta do to achieve good humans with accurate anatomy in your art is to only draw Canadians in the winter

Jokes aside, honestly just practice. There’s no quick and easy trick to do good anatomy, you have to put in the time. Study references, do billions of figure drawings, look at skeletons, bone structures, muscle and fat formations etc.

Dont just practice drawing people standing in the pick your character/sims stance. Draw ‘em walking, playing an instrument, playing a sport, (yoga is a good one for more complex pose practice).

Bear in mind this is coming from an art major, so I probably have snobbish opinions about the « right » way to draw lmao.

And if all else fails, just draw Canadians in winter.

the "also sick" comment isn't like "btw I'm SICK, how dare you not know" it's me saying I'm sick like how 2/3 of my roommates are

but like I'm so;;;; it feels so rich that L is like wtf do you want from me about me not replying for 45 minutes when I had to beg his gf over hours and hours of texts every so often to not force me to sit in unwiped shit after my surgery bc she had openly told me she just didn't rly feel like setting up the attachable bidet after telling me for weeks she would, and I never ever got a reply from her or L ever acknowledging that they were wide awake hanging out and laughing while I was like stuck in bed barely able to move begging for follow through on a commitment they made in advance and i eventually had to spend over $100 to hire someone to come out the next day and do it for me and I had to hold my shit for hours lmfao

like L is sooooo great at couching things in flawless tumblr wellness speak but only to talk about how valid they are for not showing up for you and how fucked up it is that you MIGHT ever have a moment where you can't be 100% there w them. like idk what to tell you I've been laying in bed with a sore throat and cough and fever passing out and waking up to roll over in buckets of sweat like the rest of the house. I do genuinely get being annoyed by a lack of response but it's also right back to this whole thing about Always assuming I'm mad at them which is legit one of the only things that actually makes me mad fjdkddhk like bro I do not THINK about you when you're not acting like I'm a bomb about to blow (also, as an aside -- we all take turns buying TP and it's usually me who does it like it's not out of pocket for me to say hey you are the One person who is out of the house already rn, can you get this on your way bc None of the bathrooms have back up rolls and one is totally out and I had to text our sickest roommate telling her to use the bidet and drip dry like.... "am I the first person you asked" yes bc you are the person who makes the most sense dumbfuck. I'm not being "overly needy" toward you or whatever jfc)

they literally told me at one point that the reason they're so scared of me is that my face is "triggering" for them when I'm angry or not feeling good and puts them "back in a really bad place" they have seen my face angry literally 3 times and each time it was on my way back to my room to decompress and each time I said nothing to them other than that I was in a bad mood and I was going to go to my room. I didn't yell either I just said it normal. like I genuinely feel gaslit here like I'm this horrifying monster of a man when it's like dude sometimes people are mad I don't know what YOU want from ME!! I do all my venting here where they can't ever see it even tho we've blocked each other, I censor their name like anyone even knows who they are, I isolate to chill out and it's literally been less than a handful of times like should I fling myself from the roof??????? would that fix it???

I literally know it's bc I'm a man too. none of this was like this until my facial hair came in more and it got crazy worse after I got top surgery and they're so so vocal about how much they despise men and think men should all fuck off and die and there's only a handful of acceptable men that they've personally vetted. despite them pretty clearly having a trans woman fetish bc they only date or look at porn of trans women and they do the whole step on me mommy thing about it even tho their gf has complained like. lmfao you're just a baby te//rf even tho you ID as trans masc yourself. like that's all this even is. I'm a big (5'3") scary (spent the whole weekend w my coworkers asking if I was 12) man who's obviously going to snap and kill you all bc sometimes I *checks writing on hand* get frustrated and go lay down about it

✨🎥! Forgot to say, I have a wedding in April but no dress/suit/clothes. I’m desperately looking but every single day I’m more disappointed in the quality of the fashion industry. Even the most basic thing is shit quality and cost 5 times what it should. So yeah, if anyone has recommendations on clothes (not necessarily for weddings or events, but in general) that are good quality, let me know

i know how you feel, affordable decent clothing is fucking impossible right now. honestly my best advice is thrifting/secondhand. idk what the situation for that is like in spain so maybe it's not possible, but it's always worth a shot, especially if you've already been looking for a while. it does obvs take more time than shopping new bc you have to sift through racks, but you're more likely to get a good find of better quality for a more reasonable price. my general thrifting advice (honestly this applies to any clothes shopping also) is first look for the colour and shape that you like, and then look at the material content. this is very important. do not look at brand that means nothing. always always always check the material content on the tags. ideally you want to be looking for garments that have 100% natural fibres; wool, cotton, silk, linen, rayon/viscose (yes it is natural despite the name). if you can't find 100% than something with an 80/20 ratio or more (to the natural side) can also be a safer bet, but my rule of thumb is the more polyester is in a garment, the worse it is in every way.

my general advice for wedding attire is unless you need black tie, don't worry about trying to find a full suit or a really fancy dress you're only gonna wear once. get a good pair of dark formal trousers (black/grey/navy), wear a dress shirt or a formal blouse, and throw on a nice tailored jacket that's in the same colour family. is it technically only semi-formal? yes, but who does true formal weddings and actually cares about sartorial rules. in this economy? psh. some visual aids:

it's a great combo for any 'events you have to look nice at' because you only have to buy individual pieces, you don't have to buy them all at the same time, and they can be reused for other events. just find out what the colour theme of the event is and get yourself a shirt or tie/pocket square/scarf/other accessory in that colour and you're good to go. also do not forget a good pair of shoes. this is also very important; always have a good pair of shoes.

hopefully this helps! i'm sorry i don't have better recommendations on where to actually go to buy stuff/what to buy, but i haven't shopped new in......quite a long time. but at least having some tips to go by should help. and tbh sometimes you do gotta cough up the money.....BUT only ever cough up the money for something that is 100% natural fibre and is a piece that will get use outside of a single event. otherwise you just gotta be patient and keep looking; if you are patient things have a way of coming to you.

In old roleplaying circles, I used to have people get really angry at me because they found a lot of catharsis in taking their characters those agonizing angst without necessarily giving them an end point of healing whereas my characters would always try to prompt that moment of healing—would be an end point they could come to whenever they were ready, would love them through the pain instead of drive it higher—and I don't think I've really changed at all in that regard, and I hope that ends up being all right.

[thornsent]

the tags on that post make me feel like I'm living in a different world. "the queer community helped me sooooo much when I was homeless" yeah my local queer community attempted to coerce me into signing contracts and tried to evict me from a room I was renting under the table and told my abuser I was trying to leave and laughed at me for begging for help and I could literally go on for a long, long time but I'll stop there.

I have never really felt accepted or comfortable in my own community. I don't fit in with gay men because I'm trans and thus not man enough. I don't fit in with trans men because I'm effeminate and don't really identify as a trans man anyway. I'm too masculine to be around queer women, who I make uncomfortable by virtue of existing. I don't trust other queers, because especially where I live, they use the same knives to cut bread for you as they do to slit your throat.

They pretend to be so friendly, so inclusive, so nice and Good Progressives. They send the right memes to the group chat, they post on social media all about how much of an activist they are, but when it comes to real life people who are messy and struggling? They politely pretend to look the other way, because they don't want to actually have to *do* anything. They'll performatively boost donations posts by trans poc but don't actually have any friends that aren't white!! It's all so two-faced and fake.

I will say informing that the next tress shipment won’t even come to dragonsteel before the 20th and then immediately cutting to an ad outro on how “tress is now available to non backers, get your premium hardcover copy at dragonsteel.com” is not the most diplomatic move

(romance headcanons - open)

what is your muse's ideal first date?

i'd say this depends on the person tbh. sal doesn't necessarily have a single ideal first date, and ultimately it depends a lot on the psrson in question.

however, sal would *love* to take someone on a drive out of the city limits and into the countryside, as far from the light pollution as they can get, and just look up into the stars. let sal tell you space facts while stargazing with him ✨️

does love and romance mean a lot to your muse? do they seek it constantly or let it come when it does?

so i think romance does mean a lot to salvatore, but not in the sense that he *needs* it for the sake of romance itself. what's really important to salvatore is having people he can depend on and who depend on him in turn.

sal is grey-aro, meaning he doesn't often experience romantic attraction. however, he isn't romance-repulsed necessarily--it's just not something that he seeks out often or desires above all else.

sal's definitely the type to let romance come as it does, but he *does* to some extent seek out the kind of trust that would be required for romance to form down the line. sal just wants someone he can trust, really.

does your muse have an ideal "type"?

lol i was actually thinking about this earlier- so my general answer here is no. sal doesn't have an ideal type for romantic partner--because really it's less about the person themself and more about what kind of bond they'd have with him. however, i can definitely list some traits that are common threads in the kinds of people he's into.

sal likes people who are strong willed, who have a sharp tongue and don't let the world walk all over them. at the same time, however, he greatly admires gentleness--people who've been through hell and came out *kind* are mystifying to him. and someone who's both of those things can very quickly earn his respect and admiration.

he also likes people he can tease and who tease him back, who he can bounce off of and joke with.

most of all, however, sal's type is someone he can relax around, who he can feel safe with and trust to have his back as much as he'd have theirs. he's a loyal motherfucker, and he *needs* a partner he can expect that same level of loyalty from.
