One of the best things about Disco Elysium by far is that it does not fear ugly women. The world is full of ugly men, but ugly women are so hard to come by.
#I'm not calling the characters ugly btw#i don't believe any one can be ugly#i do not care for beauty standards and thus i don't rank people based on how “ugly” or “pretty” they are#but the characters in DE do not meet the conventional beauty standards and look like actual people with unique faces#and thus would be considered “ugly”#and that is so important to me. i go feral whenever media represents how people look like in real life and not how they look like in the#fictional parallel universe where everyone is a model and where a majority of the movies take place#because irl you don't have to be a model to be desirable#the most attractive man in any video game I've ever played has a receding hairline and a big nose and thick glasses and a small chin#and not only is representing realistic people. just good. in general. but it makes the character of Dolores Dei stand out so much more which#works for the game so well. she's barely human. she's a deity- a myth- a legend. the only version that exists of her now is the one with#glowing lungs. she's perfectly beautiful because she's inhuman. the fact that everybody else looks so human only highlights how inhuman she#has become yk?#if everyone was as conventionally attractive as her then she wouldn't stand out. we wouldn't get why she's so special.#disco elysium#disco elysium analysis#media analysis#beauty standards#this is only one aspect of how this game portrays real people btw. as someone interested in character design this just immediately stood out#to me#the first time i noticed it was when i first met garte and the second time was when i met ruby because neither are conventionally desirable#oh my fucking god the nerds who complain about a woman with a model face having body hair in a video game would perish if they played this#mainstream game/movie studios catering to western masses could never

OH YEAH since he made it into the human bill smash or pass tierlist i figure i might as well post my human guy named andrew bill here since i havent before! yes he has a wardrobe change for every occasion. here comes the order
dreamscaperers (gideon summoning bill)
dreamscaperers (in stan's mindscape)
sock opera (outside encounter with dipper)
sock opera (bill's deal with dipper)
the last mabelcorn (cold open)
the last mabelcorn (ominous out-of-context flashback)
the last mabelcorn (less ominous in context flashback)
the last mabelcorn (credits sting)
dipper and mabel vs the future (whipped out this one for all of two seconds)
weirdmageddon
weirdmageddon (penthouse scene)
sorry for making him a silly little twink but i needed to live my truth.
#gravity falls#my art#bill cipher#its such a good gag to me. the idea that like#bill shows up wearing a different outfit every time#not only because you wouldnt be able to tell with canon bill#(hed be wearing slightly different bowties in shades of black)#but also the idea that hes somehow tricking you while wearing a giant dramatic irony outfit#i also purposely made his first outfit the most like. conventional#because he has not yet turned on Sillymode. he hasnt been let back in yet.#and then next time we see him hes in a fucking bathrobe.

Roevember: Name
Baderon: "So what do they call y─ Nay, don't tell me. 'Tis on the tip o' me tongue... 'Tis...'tis...'tis bloody gone is what it is. Bollocks."
???: "...You know what's real funny? I... just realized I don't remember either."
Baderon: "They say this forgetfulness is some lingerin' effect o' the Calamity. I say it's a Leviathan-sized pain in the arse. Mind, yours seems especially bad. I've seen plenty o' folks what can't remember other names, but not rememberin' yer own? Hmm. What's the last thing ye can remember?"
???: "I... had a strange dream. Then I woke up on the ship, just as we were pulling into port. But before that, it's... fuck, there's nothing."
Baderon: "Well! That's mighty strange. No good frettin' about it too much, though, I reckon. Either it'll come back to ye in time, or it won't. Could be the Calamity. Could be as simple as ye took a bad knock to the noggin - ye look like a fightin' sort to me. Trouble is, though, I can't get ye properly registered with the guild without some sort o' name."
???: "I swear, it's right there, I just can't quite... I think... Ar... Ar-something?"
Baderon: "Take yer time, lass."
Ar???: "Think there's a D in there somewhere. ...Snrk. Ahem. Ard...? I think maybe... Ard...win? Yeah. Yeah, I think that sounds right."
Baderon: "A-r-d-w-y-n?"
Ardwyn?: "No, with an I, like wind. Or winner. I'm pretty sure. My first name."
Baderon: "Good a name as any, I reckon. Fits ye pretty well. Care to venture a guess at a family name?"
Ardwin: "Oh, gods, no, I've got a splitting headache already from trying to dredge up that much."
Baderon: "Hah, fair enough. Just Ardwin it is, then."
#roevemberxiv2024#roevember#ardwin tag#ardwin pics#ardwin lore#this post brought to you by Ardwin's amnesia#and also me having no idea that there were actual naming convention rules for Roegadyn when I made her#and instead just mashing the random generator button a bunch and picking out syllables I liked lmao#also the first Baderon line is verbatim from the starting quest lmao#also! giving myself full permission to play fast and loose with the prompt days and which ones I do#since most of my Doing Things On Time spoons are occupied by college atm

controversial opinion maybe but it BEWILDERS me when people (mostly americans ime) genuinely seriously with their whole chest complain about how impossibly hard russian names are. like. do a single google search. i don't see how you can comprehend that charles = chuck and margaret = peggy but can't fathom that rodion = rodya. how is this such a huge barrier of entry for people
#and this doesnt apply to ESL ppl or any other ppl who have actual reasons like dyslexia or something#im talking about other americans who go yeah i had to stop reading bc i couldnt understand the names#how are you seeing different cultural naming conventions as an unsurpassable barrier that forces you to quit and give up on ever reading it#instead of an opportunity to learn and expand your narrow worldview?????? and over something SO SIMPLE??????????#like i know damn well yall know a katherine that goes by katie or a john that goes by jack#and those make even less sense than something like aleksey -> alyosha!#there are general rules and patterns unlike english! like the progression from aleksey -> alyosha -> alyoshka -> alyoshechka is so easy to#comprehend i dont understand how its SUCH a common complaint#i definitely understand the struggle of keeping characters straight when they have the same first name#like katerina ivanovna and katerina ospovna in t/bk etc#and of course the names in general are something you have to adjust to if youve never encountered it before! it takes a bit of thought#but its NOT FUCKING ROCKET SCIENCE and its asinine to shrug your shoulders and say welp guess im incapable of ever reading any ruslit!#like ohhh my goddd it grinds my gears so bad#bare minimum effort#anontalks#sorry for rant but i keep fucking seeing this shit and it rubs me the wrong way every time#like yeah its funny that dunya = avdotya and grushenka = agrafena#but richard = dick and elizabeth = betty so who fucking cares read the damn book

i can count on one hand the amount of female characters in this game that have made me stop and stare but damn She. stunning i’m in love
#i think the hsr fashion style is just not my cup of tea lol#like i’m just not Wowed v often#i think i tend to like the ones that are more…conventional?#like kafka and blade and dan heng#jinglui and topaz and hanya#the ones i def don’t vibe with are seele and archeron and yukong#these are just off the top of my head lol#and then there’s others that i’m just neutral on. like bronya and gallagher and gepard#they don’t do anything for me but i don’t hate it or they don’t make me go ??? w hat#anyway after listing all these people i can’t remember the names of the two women in the image lmao#shorter one on the right is a seele to me i go ????#the one in the middle (feixiao?) invokes the same emotions i experienced when seeing hanya for the first time#gorgeous stunning i’m staring at her for 20 years#this is a new quest right? so i should tag spoilers..#man i have so many quests and shit i don’t know what’s what anymore#i think it’s brand new as of last night.. i think.. i’m pretty sure#i’ll stop talking now lol#hsr spoilers#feixiao#pretty positive that’s her name#yanqing#lemme google the other girl real quick#yunli

I finally finished Dungeon Meshi and i love how the new Era of Fantasy in Anime/Manga brought me back to an old passion.
i havent bought a Manga in 15 years and here i am with my Frieren, Dungeon Meshi and Witch Hat Atelier Volumes getting excited to buy a new one, being involved in fandom culture and searching for fanart and cosplays.
i missed it. i missed me.
#Frieren#Dungeon Meshi#Witch hat Atelier#Thanks for bringing me back into Manga and Anime#I havent felt this excitement in a long time😭#It's like i'm 10 year old again reading Naruto learning the hand signs#or 13 and running to the bookstore to get the Elfen Lied collection thats on Sale#or 16 visiting my first convention#i already had a vocaloid revival this year when i went to an ADO concert but it really is time to revive little me her “cringe” interests#honestly being able to be excited about Anime again just makes me Emotional#manga#anime#I cant wait to go to a con to find stuff for the content i consume. to talk to cosplayers. share theories😭

Ce n'est pas de John Jackson qu'il faut attendre grand intérêt pour Diderot, Stendhal ou même Flaubert, mais ce courant qui ne sait guère la poésie n'est pas en France aussi vaste qu'on pourrait croire, il y a souvent chez nos prosateurs, aussitôt en cela les plus musiciens, les plus grands, le besoin de réparer dans leurs propres œuvres les dégâts que la prosodie dite classique du vers régulier et de la rime à outrance a causés dans la sensibilité poétique, et de Rousseau à Proust en passant par Chateaubriand ou Nerval l'étude de quelques-uns de ces poètes de la prose est aussi la voie qu'a suivie John Jackson dans nombre de ses essais, voie proche d'une autre où il rencontre Hölderlin ou d'autres aspects du romantisme allemand.
if i may just whimper pathetically for a second. first of all this one sentence, which could very easily be made into three sentences, is 128 words long. secondly there's a comma splice (which is allowed in formal written french but definitely makes things harder to parse). thirdly it took me like ten minutes to figure out that the subject of "a causés" is "la prosodie" because i missed the "de" before "la rime" and so thought the subject of "a causés" was the plural "la prosodie et la rime", which is not the writer's fault except insofar as it is easier to miss a word when there are 128 of them. fourthly that "et de Rousseau à Proust" is really rude because, coming after a comma instead of in a new sentence, the "de" feels like it should be referring back to the last de in the main clause, which was "le besoin de", but that doesn't make any fucking sense, and you have to wait several more words to find "l'étude", which isn't even set off by a comma. fifthly the "sentences" (not pictured) directly before and after this one are not actually sentences as none of them contain a main verb, something also allowed in written french but imo really rude to do in excess. this guy is like "a sentence is EITHER five sentences in a trenchcoat OR a lone noun phrase (with subordinate clauses of course)." dude can we not just split the difference. i'm suffering here.
sixthly even after eventually managing to parse the syntax i still had no idea what he was saying because i confused réparer with repérer. that's one's definitely on me though.
#this is from the preface of les fleurs du mal. everyone who voted for that one in the poll i hope you're happy#there's like 60 pages of preface and introduction so by the time i get to the actual poetry i'm gonna be so fucking done with prose#not that poetry is EASIER to parse lmao#well we shall see.#french#my posts#syntax#i'm not even saying this guy has broken any of the rules of formal written french. i don't think he has. the problem is that#the rules of formal written french are not conducive to the production of sentences that make any fucking sense to me lol#the one convention that helps is that of basically paraphrasing what you just said#which is helpful because if i didn't understand the first time maybe i will the second time lol#but also makes everything much longer than it strictly needs to be for my anglophone sensibilities#because in english conciseness is a lot more valued than it is in french#so i'm also not saying it's french's fault...it's the conflict between what french prioritizes and what i am used to#i wish this were three sentences (at least) instead of one but i also understand that the connection and flow within a single sentence#is valued in french. it's just HARD FOR ME TO FOLLOW!!!!!#also a me problem. I GUESS

not that i usually post everyday but heads up that i've injured my neck and shoulder so haven't been able to draw and will probably not be posting much as i need to take things super easy
#which sucks because i was really super focused and locked in and motivated to draw#which is also probably why i hurt myself in the first place now that i think about it been doing nothing but draw for like a month#anywayyyyyy#i will focus on the pinup zine once i'll be able to draw again and then keep working on merchs for my conventions#and then in december i will be out of a job so i will have. a lot of time. hopefully i'm not in pain anymore by then!#might post some older sketches in the meantime ofc!#lisontalks

Realization.
#etrian odyssey#moe once again picking names on a whim LMFAOOO (first instance was. itself. and it just keeps doing this.)#I HAD TO. MAKE THIS. i had to give the sheep a name so bad upon learning this.#also i think one thing that's really important to remember about sharena and her core character#is that she's a weird girl at heart.#like i think she makes the same mistake i did (thinking kuro is a plushie) and is enthusiastic about it anyway#LIKE. sharena is a concentionally attractive literal princess weird girl. she flies under the radar#bc of those first two things (and also is given more grace/weird traits could even be romantised BECAUSE#she's pretty. high status too)#someone like moe. on the other hand. maybe there was a time it was considered close enough#to conventional attractiveness. but it's deviated so far from that One (1) societal expectation#that now it's more ostracized. its weird traits are no longer packaged in something pretty.#it's no longer desirable. it's un-romantisizable. which makes its traits more unpalatable.#it's... an aquired taste. some might say.#also i can't fucking get over the fact that moe looks like a fucking gnome in that hat LMFAOOOOOOOO#SOMETHING ABOUT THAT SPECIFIC HAT SHAPE AND THE FACIAL HAIR...... IT'S SO GNOMECORE.......#i'm gonna cry. moe. you got gnome'd. 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭#sharena#moe tag#my art#don't. mind the typos in here btw i'm not fixing that.#ALSO TECHNICALLY FE??? but also it's such a rough sketch idk if it matters??????#also primarily eo????#well.#fire emblem#feh#moe is. technically a summoner oc as well.#i feel like we're so far removed here i'm not tagging it LMFAOOO

gotta love those days when even listening to random regular-ass songs about love and whatever makes you feel all lonely and doomed and lacking because you'll never have that and that means you'll probably always be alone
#erdariel rambles#to be clear this isn't me feeling unloveable (well i also feel that but it's not the point here)#this is specifically about being fucking aroace and looking at conventional romantic relationships.#and knowing i don't even really want that. i'd probably be miserable trying to exist in a 'normal' relationship like that#even if one somehow fell out of the sky in front of me#but at the same time it's just lonely and scary and shit knowing that i'll never have it#that i'll never be anyone's first choice or priority and never have someone actually at my side to face life with#i know i'm not inherently broken for being what i am#but i just... it's hard not to feel like i've been robbed or betrayed or something?#that i was promised i'd have something. or at least promised to have a fair chance at it. only to discover that i don't#either it never was there or it has been stolen and honestly it makes little difference which because point is now i don't have it either w#aroace

Of course it is green
#summary of art#art summary#my art#added convention stickers because i really like how many i made. it was such a fun action#oh dear this year did not start kindly for me#first tailbone contusion and inability to sit for a whole month#then wild cough for three weeks after infection forcing me to go to sleep before 22 and not leaving much time for art#then some other minor nuisances#and holidays with family#all of this must have happened to encourage me to get into esc earlier than usual#giving me just enough time to get familiar with käärijä so that the passion could explode right when i needed it the most#and the rest is history#wow#see you next year 🧡#eyestrain warning

i really liked the ending of the buddy daddies anime, i think it fits the story and what annoys me now are people who are trashing this ending because of that line about kazuki meeting with a girl and that he's not gay for rei, well they were never said to be gay it's just a headcanon. not dating doesn't equal not caring about each other, romantic love is not a necessity and a qpr is not inferior to a romantic relationship. they were shown to be a real happy family in the end, that's what is important here
#buddy daddies#'he's cheating on rei. they don't love each other' how did you watch 12 episodes of the show and miss the point completely#literally accept the idea that love doesn't come from dating#adding more context because this post got out of my mutual circle lmao#it would be great if they started dating but the ending where they remain a qpr is ALSO nice#the show was first and foremost about a family and they did become one in the end! that's what matters the most#they're not your typical conventional family because the point was to show that they don't need to. and they can still be a real one#like there are many kinds of families and it's one like one is better than another#yes they didn't plan that but with time they formed bonds and created memories together and found happiness#and kazuki and rei didn't need to be a romantic couple for all of that yo be meaningful and for their bond to be special#they decided to resign from their jobs and completely change their lives for each other and for miri#so if someone says that all of this doesn't matter and they should've get married to be finally a real family then they're just wrong
