i still can't believe that "you should read comic books in the comic book fandom" is somehow some kind of spicy hot take tbh. comics are cool and some of them have my best friend superman in them. and if that's not enough they even have lois lane. what's not clicking
#rimi talks#sorry. just saw a fuckign post. WOW.#someone: ''reading comic books is fun and its not that hard to get started!''#the notes for some reason: you ableist fucking elitist gatekeeping asshole--#HELLO???????#my brothers in christ you are the ones in the comic book fandom WHY ARE YOU HERE IF YOU DONT LIKE COMIC BOOKS...#making this post feels vaguely like swinging a bat at a hornets nest but the fact that it does is also fucking insane#this is not a hot take this is a basic ass white bread take. what is in the water out here.

I mean, who even are you on the timeline, do you know? Doesn’t matter. I think it does matter because none of this is real.

No jokes here. The Navy’s best pilot and the Navy’s best admiral. Between them, eight air-to-air combat kills and five stars. These were men who commanded respect with or without your approval. This was the picture of ruthless competence.
Debriefing (& Other Stories) • part 2 of Easier Done Than Said by @compacflt
#easier done than said by COMPACFLT#this is one of my alltime favourite fics rn#and probably for the rest of time too#its a topgun fic written by COMPACFLT and its insane and its so fucking good#its basically a canon rewrite of#top gun 1986#and#top gun maverick#and spans thirty years of Ice and Mavs relationship#theres just so much in this#so much emotion and characterization and everything#which has driven me insane that im having one hell of a dopamine comedown this week after having read it#i highly reccomended people go read it cause its just really that good#pete maverick mitchell#tom iceman kazansky#bradley rooster bradshaw#jake hangman seresin#i love how the commander wrote mav and ice in this. like theyre clearly military men#but theyre also SO much more#icemav#and theyve taken the canon 'whos the best pilot' and given its own twist#'hes the best pilot in the world'#my heart cant take it anymore#i know im making this sound like 100k words of just fluff but believe me its not#its 30 years of pain and internalised homophobia and time away and falling in love and raising a kid and not once talking about any of it#but the ending is so so so good and the additional parts from different povs literally left me wanting more#i cant do this someone help me go read this go read this go read this#and come cry with me how we cant ever read this for the first time ever again#also shoutout to the commander once again for the insane amount of preplanning and research into the navy theyve done to write this fic#im forver thankful. sorry im a stalker

everytime i remember almost no-one in the fandom seems to think guillermo de la cruz is ace i get so mad. it's partially about my own expectations bc watching the show i just sorta assumed everyone would bc it's so very obvious to me. like you can't tell me he was tryna come out as gay at that table lmao. he would not feel the need to make it into such a thing, they never expected him to be straight. coming out as asexual however? to these sex-obsessed vampires? of course he'd feel the need to explain and justify himself with a long speech, if he didn't they wouldn't believe him, they would not understand it as a real possibility. there's plenty of other stuff too that i don't remember specifically enough 2 talk about. also it just seems like poor media literacy to me. i can't say that with certainty cuz i don't actually know the writers' intentions either but to me it's rly just canon that he's ace. i know queerbaiting is an issue and we need explicit representation and in my ideal world he is explicitly stated to be asexual in a future episode of the show but im also a strong believer in not needing characters to look at the camera and state their identities for them to have those identities as a written part of their character.
#i feel insane!!!!! every time i think about this i feel insane!!!!!!#b4 i looked at the fandom i seriously thought this would be accepted as basically canon by the vast majority of people!!!!!!#i viewed it as canonical subtext! but now i feel like i just deluded myself into believing my headcanon is canon?????#it's barely even subtext tbh! actual subtext im very bad at (take everything literally on account of the autism)#this is textual implication! how r people not seeing this am i insaaaane#what we do in the shadows#wwdits#do tags show up this far down#guess we'll see

random note about king on that animation, i got really lucky with how simple his animation was and how clean my sketches were to begin with that i was able to do very minimal cleanup on what i had sketched (and add back. his horn. it's supposed to take place just after echoes of the past, Oops) and call it done that way instead of having to redraw the entire thing like i had to on his dad
first sketch > line cleanup > nearly final animation (i'd added slight eye movements last-second but otherwise that's the final)
#toh#the owl house#animation#gif#king clawthorne#the lineart slightly flickers on his one paw where i had to erase the tag and i thought it would bother me a lot more#but most people seem to use the internet on their phones - coupled with the darker palette and color of his fur#it basically completely hides it#based on feedback i don't think a lot of people realize i made that and it's not a gif from the show lmfao#BUT ITS STILL REALLY NICE THAT PEOPLE THINK IT IS!!!! I AM NOT AN ANIMATOR I AM JUST A HOBBYIST...#i animate like once a year... shits hard man.... but apparently when i do animate. its extremely good :) proud of that#even if i have an extremely unhinged way of animating#i don't have an animation program i draw everything individually frame by frame in photoshop#each character had their own psd file with the same background and every frame was its own group. twice. one for sketch one for colors#i do test takes with gifcam (there are literally 55 WIP gifs in my documents folder rn) by switching between layers and taking a 'frame'#and i compile in blender's video editor and to move things separately i save each character's frame in its own .png 'cel'#so luz was her own 'cel'. king was his own 'cel.' etc. and then i have to manually slide the lengths of the frames around#to match the right framerate. traditionally animation is animated at 24 FPS on 2's - so 12 frames a second. i go on 3s. 4 to slow down#anime-ass framerate. i'm insane apparently but its what i like to do#i dont understand real animation programs they have too many pieces but i DO understand photoshop and my funny brushes#imagine having Digital Programs and Still basically doing ye olde traditional animation method just in the computer#if im Just making a gif then i only use gifcam and switch between layers. like digital stop motion. somethings wrong with me

Day 16
As the human and I did not share any duties during this particular cycle, I decided now might be a fitting time to inform the Vitrichl about the aforementioned book, which could possibly grant a further insight into Terrans.
Despite the quite serious circumstances we are currently in, I was able to secure a time frame to initiate a conversation regarding this topic.
I repeated the information V-7 had been able to conjure on this as well as other stories and reports on humans.
"There seems to be one…obstacle, though: The book‘s last documented location is in system Skė-51-33, which does not seem to be even remotely near our current route.", I eludicated.
The Vitrichl seemed to consider the information given, keeping in mind the reason the SIIR Noxos usually avoids this particular system: its unfriendly and occasionally aggressive nature.
Concluding, I was able to convince the Vitrichl through the benefits this book could provide in the task of studying humans, causing the Vitrichl to eludicate that changing the route was currently not possible, but as soon as the chance was offered to us, we would make a short detour through this system to retrieve said book, given that the book was still located there.
In the meantime, I was tasked with retrieving as much possible information on this particular and other sources about humans.
Our arrival on Fendaar is imminent, as we are nearing the planet‘s atmosphere. Further reports will follow.
#So um. Hiiiii#Sorry once again for my absence I‘ve been in a bit of a writing slump the past few days for some reason#I actually had this chapter laying around for a few days basically finished but unfortunately. Written on paper. By hand.#And I kind of avoided making a digital form and typing everything off again#And before anyone asks no I cannot just take a photo and copy the text out because I happen to write in cursive <33#Also I had work 😔 but I got to pet animals sooo#By “animals” I am referring to actual animals and not the kids I had to look after lol#But I‘m back now!!#This chapter seems kinda short#It IS kinda short I mean#But this is for actual plot reasons for once and not bc I had little time to write lol#Bc the next chapter they literally land on a planet so it‘ll likely be long asf again 😀👍#Anyway#nr.16#day 16#earth is space australia#humans are space orcs#humans are weird#space australia#humans are insane#humans are terrifying#humans in space#humans are space oddities#humans are space australians#humans are crazy#humans are awesome#original writing#humans from an outsider perspective#alien pov#original story

when someone comes out of episode 31 and 32 still believing nanami is in love with touga
#this reaction series i'm watching has really gone downhill. used to be some pretty good analysis for a first watch#but then he hit episode 30 and immediately began having the most basic surface level (wrong) interpretations of literally everything#his read of utena and akio's relationship especially make me want to bang my head against the wall#(but that's maybe just because i'm particularly insane about that part of the show)#he keeps talking about how young the characters are and even has a running bit about how old akio may or may not be#but he refuses to call anything abuse. it's all just “they're sleeping together” and “hehe they kissed” SHUT UPPPPP#i am. scared for 33 next week. his audience has apparently been hyping it up as some grand epic finale to the arc too#hope it hits him really hard and snaps him out of whatever the hell it is he's been thinking lately. i hope it makes him cry#bad takes#m

cabaret audio gift - october 23, 2024
[untracked audio]
please do not share outside of tumblr
CAST: adam lambert (emcee), ayla ciccone-burton (u/s sally bowles), bebe neuwirth (fraulein schneider), calvin leon smith (clifford bradshaw), steven skybell (herr schultz), ... cast info & playbill insert included in linked folder.
notes: adam lambert's emcee is astounding. vocally, he's the best emcee to come out of this production, and he has the acting chops to match. ayla ciccone-burton's sally seems a bit more worldly than auliʻi cravalho's, whose sally comes across as very young. i think i prefer cravalho's interpretation, but they're both amazing. bebe neuwirth is stunning as fraulein schneider, of course, and her chemistry with steven skybell as herr schultz is off the charts. as my relationship with cabaret has developed over time, i've become more and more invested in schneider and schultz's story over sally and cliff's, so i really love what neuwirth and skybell are able to do with the characters. i still love cliff and sally though, and calvin leon smith as cliff is possibly my favorite cliff out of all i've seen. he's so sweet and caring, and really plays the softness of the role so well. henry gottfried humanizes ernst a lot in his portrayal, which the character obviously doesn't deserve, but gottfried is great no less and what he brings to the role is impressive. his ernst comes off kind of queer in my opinion, at least in his interactions with cliff, which i think is in line with the direction from the west end. overall, i just love this show and while i was initially hesitant about this revival (as a huge fan of the mendes version), they really knocked it out of the park
#i'm just obsessed with adam lambert's emcee basically#i had to clip 'i don't care much' because the opt ups are INSANE#he's 2nd to alan cumming in my heart because no one can replace him for me but it's a very close 2nd#i don't wanna drop my cabaret hot takes here lol but if you're interested please DM me i love talking about this show#anyways yeah please don't share this outside of tumblr i don't wanna get sniped#cabaret#cabaret broadway#cabaret revival#adam lambert#audio gift

I don't know how to elaborate.
#ramblings :)#Legit I just made this on a whim for the discord server I don't know how to elaborate on this#I guess basically my thought process was. a spectrum between people I hc as autistic#from Chill. to depressed. to asshole. to batshit insane#So here take it I don't fucking know#Luigi's there cause I feel like it#He's autistic too but on his own cause he fits. nowhere on this graph

#WAKE UP BABES NEW RAREPAIR JUST DROPPED#none of you have any idea how many insane headcanons i have about shelob (and sauron in association)#in my head she's the daughter of morgoth and ungoliant—making her half-vala and half-void monster#justifying the ability to take on a more 'humanoid' form instead of a giant spider at will#and so basically sauron falls head over heels for his boss's daughter and her with her father's lieutenant#it's an incredibly intense and toxic relationship that is on and off over the years#rekindling tenfold in the second age when sauron returns to middle-earth and forges the one ring 😳#tolkien#the silmarillion#silm#lord of the rings#lotr#headcanons#sauron#shelob#sauron x shelob#(what would their ship name be...saurlob? sheron???)#art#my art#merilles

hey. why are these genuinely good. why are these verses from pokemon game beautiful.
#i get why volo was into this#pla#pokemon legends arceus#taking a break from reader insert stuff to do my Big Volo Character Analysis Fic and you know i have to cite my sources#also this full poem comprised of these verses is like?? really fascinating?#especially knowing cogita wrote them#and volo is obsessed with them#i'm now convinced that cogita is mean to volo bc she knows he sees himself as the chosen hero of arceus but she disagrees#and he's still friendly to her despite this because he wants her to realize that he is basically celestican jesus#unaware that the verses he's reading were written by her#it's SO INTERESTING#volo will see an emotionally withholding authority figure and go 'i need to be worthy' so intensely that it drives him insane

i've had a vision of aiden and black magic by little mix and now i'm knee deep in a modern magic au where aiden sells cheesy love potions by being hot (it's a scam)
#nart#aiden kane#fence comic#digital art#i banged this out in like two hours bc THE VISION WAS THAT STRONG#anyways so i imagine this au to take place in a world were magic exists but its very chill#i just want aiden to be a hot merchant idk#he lives with harvard ofc who instead works for like a law firm or something actually important to the world#and then they kiss#aiden has a sort of aura magic where he can see what people are feeling mayhaps?#and harvard has close foresight so he can always see if someone is about to get injured or similarly (so hes always worrying/reassuring)#somewhat inspired by sacrificial by pavlovee but too shy to tag them and also its basically not even related#but go read that fic its so good!!#also i think seiji would fit in and he would do very cool storm related magic????#and to ME nicholas has like flickering magic that hes trying to work out what it is#and maybe its connected to his belief in his abilities? stupid comparison but like the rise of the guardians movie#and robert coste is like one of the most important and powerful mages thats now retired or something to that effect#eugene also can make things levitate in my mind#which means he can just lift his siblings in the air if theyre getting into trouble#ok im gonna shut up im going insane#also glass is HARD to draw so forgive me for that thing#fence fanart

oh my god there are posts in the byler tag rn that are like “im so disappointed in noah… now bylers probably not gonna happen”
LISTEN TO YOURSELF. you care more about the lives of fictional characters than the lives of palestinians. 30,000 palestinians have been killed and this is what youre fucking worried about.
#theres so many insane takes in the byler tag rn oh my god#i saw this long ass post that was basically saying ‘noah didnt do anything wrong bc zionism isnt wrong’ WHAT#noah schnapp#byler#stranger things#also it literally will still happen thats not how tv works#but you shouldnt care about that rn there are bigger fucking issues
