had a sudden realization about a Thing i've been doing for years and it's kinda Really Bad socially speaking whoops
#bambi's rambling#specifically its forgetting to say thank you to people#i was looking through old emails to delete and i found some old letters of recommendation#and it turns out i never said replied to say thanks after getting them??? uh. whoops#those were from like two years ago can't really reply now#but like how did i get through twenty years of life without realizing that you're supposed to thank people for that kinda stuff????#there was literally a time my mom yelled at me over this you'd think it would've clicked then but lol nope#and that was almost a year ago#no idea how i miss this stuff honestly

MAN I'm seriously so sad about season 2. Bc I wish act 2 had the same emotional impact on me as it appears to have on so many others. But rn I'm just somewhere between unable to care and actively annoyed by some of those writing decisions. Seriously the more I think about it the less I like it.
#act 3 come through please 🙏#I don't think it can salvage some of the things I have contentions with but still... please...#don't ask me about the silco vander flashback with jinxs + vis mom#or the bizzare choice to do so much of the storytelling through this weird music video format they've got going on#completely stripping it of the weight these plot beats could've had if they were... normal scenes#and also missing the point of how the music was used in season 1 and what made it so effective#bc it was complementary to instead of replacing the storytelling#seriously don't ask me about these things I will spontaneously implode on the spot#whyyyyy would they recontextualize season 1 like this with that flashback#to me it kind of ruins the character dynamics and themes in s1. it just makes me so sad you have no idea#also what even are they doing with Jinx rn for real#aaarghhhh just... so many things that are making me scratch my head#also I'm so terribly sorry but I could not care less about Isha sorry lol#like i get that its sad conceptually but she was such a non-character that i struggle to feel impacted at all#same with sky tbh. i thought her role in s1 was alright but there is so much emotional weight put on her now#in terms of her relationship to Viktor but that was barely established so it's weird to have her around#and clearly you're supposed to care but they haven't given me much reason to#isha and sky were non-characters just there to die to further the development of other characters#they didn't really have anything going on on their own and that's just a type of character and plot device that does nothing for me#also i thought the war between zaun and piltover + internal struggles in zaun bc silcos gone would be the main focus#but that stuff seems so sidetracked rn#also sorry i dont like what they did with vander and warwick either. that man should've stayed dead lol#it honestly just makes his death feel less impactful and i dont know what this is supposed to do for the story or the themes???#that just feels like a pointless plotline that is taking up time that could've been spent on other things#i just... i could go on like this for a while like there are so many things that just puzzle me#it's so weird considering how tight and thematically consistent season 1 was#let's see where act 3 goes but... i kinda have a bad feeling about it ngl#obv im glad others are enjoying it and this is just my opinion! also a lot of this are probs just my personal tastes anyway#arcane spoilers

#im 21 now#don’t read the tags it’s just me rambling about stuff<33#man…#can’t wait to be forced to be a silly girlie girl cuz im definitely a girl girl so girl#loves being trans<33#I’m so tired djdjjsksk#I wish that I’m a binary trans person or cis idk it sucks cuz I’m weirdly dysphoric#I’ll be ok teehee#DJDJJDi need to stop making things depressing#I have miku expo#and I’m going to go see my best friends#that’s all I need but it’s still rough on the actual day#im surprise I haven’t attempted anything yet djxkxjskksks#im ok I’ll be fine I just gotta be silly and chill teehee#I don’t wanna hear her name omg she’s so annoying sjsjjd’s#it’s not her fault#they just refuse to let her die djdsjkskksks#(she was me btw djsjsjsj I just can’t bring myself to keep saying that it’s pass me cuz im so disconnected to the dead girl#honestly I kinda miss her#I think she might have more of an idea and is probably happier I’ll ever be dhsjjs we’ll probably not by much with how my mother treats me#I wish I was in the closet again#aging#i hate my birthday#birthday#yay?

Your watercolor piece is so BEAUTIFUL!!! its so hard to see fanart of traditional media and you absolutely *ate* with that one 🥹 the colors are so delicate and i love all the white space you left in between
aaaaa thank you!! always happy to see people be excited about traditional art :D
#asks#rebelwithoutabroom#honestly always makes my day when people get excited about seeing fanart done traditionally#Im gonna rant a moment in the tags now since Ive seen a few people bring up the composition and all that#I was!!! very much influenced by old illustrations to the OG three musketeers#and also very much inspired by the works of the illustrators of the golden age of illustration#(I got to see some harry clarke pieces in person so I kinda went digging thru it)#I was actually about to ditch the entire idea at one point!#really liked the thought of it but not the execution#so I looked thru all these classic artists of the golden age#and then picked up my antique artbook of ludwig richter (his art is really lovely go look him up)#and while going thru the pages I kinda just realised that oh yeah I can just. fake the background#the side alley with the arches is a bit of a weakness of mine#whenever Im on holiday and see one I have to take pictures#I did actually do an illustration in a very similar setting with a similar angle last summer#so I decided to put it down on paper and hey. not bad#I really enjoyed painting this one I like how soft the watercolours came out#it actually looks like watercolour this time! yay!#(I say to myself demeaningly because I aspire to paint like luděk marold one day)#but yes the archway of the alley kinda forms a frame around dream and george#and then you have sapnap breaking it by his fall and his stuff scattered on the floor Outside the frame#all while george is stepping out of the frame to pursue him and dream clutching his arm like 'baby no :((('#and the very light ivy clinging to the wall calls back to the ornate frames of flowers that were used in illustration a lot#i need to do more of these. I really hope to tbh#I had a really good time painting this one#Ive had a really good time painting in general as of late. missed this

There's no feeling stranger than knowing that something is bad but liking it anyways. Not in a 'it's so bad it's good' way. Because that implies that it has become good. I'm talking like this thing is just kinda bad in the normal ways things are bad, but i like it anyways.
#honestly I'm talking about Batgirls rn#because like...it has its moments but I wouldn't call it good. it even has some of my own personal pet peeves#specifically the overabundance of narration boxes that aren't from a character and rather the author is speaking to us.#if I wanted an overabundance Authors Notes I would read fucking early 2000s fanfics#and Babsgirl existing but I've made peace with the fact that we'll only get an Oracle story in a Black Label or similar thing at this point#I love the art and it has among my favorite designs for both Spoiler and Black Bat#don't get me STARTED on the covers holy fuck. the 90s rewind in particular lives in my head rent free because ajlkdfjdsalk;fjdlsa;kf#it also has both moments of REALLY FUCKING BAD characterization and REALLY FUCKING GOOD characterization#Cass being like 'ok but do we HAVE to save Seer?' horrible! demonstrates an egregious misunderstanding of her. what the hell?#Steph being abnormally good at solving the Riddler's puzzles and knowing basically every cipher because of Arthur? then getting incredibly#upset at even the MENTION of him to the point that she gets fucking stabbed by the RIDDLER of all people?#wow thanks for actually addressing a very interesting part of Steph's character that is often left by the wayside. good job.#issue 14 is amazing and it makes me want to implode every time I read it. like I actually recommend it without any caveats attached#it is straight up good. it's the high-point of Batgirls and it's not even close imo.#and wow! there is almost no dialogue and NO NARRATION BOXES??#it's almost like the whole appeal of comics is telling incredible stories through art or something. and that when you have good art#and good art direction you should just fucking let it speak for itself or something#and that maybe using what words you DO have to let your CHARACTERS speak in a way they normally wouldn't is a good idea#even if the in universe reason is that Steph is basically leaving this note as a 'I am either dead or close to it' type of thing#like holy fuck how did they do that?? AND SO LATE IN THE GAME THAT NOBODY FUCKING TALKS ABOUT IT??#and obviously there is a conversation to be had about 'was Batgirls queerbaiting' but honestly since it was cancelled IDK#I could see a universe where given time it could have made a natural shift to a love story between Steph and Cass#I'm not upset about it but I get why other people might be. there are some panels that like...come on.#and as always I am most fascinated by missed potential. because Batgirls showed that it COULD be good with Issue 14#and arguably other of the better issues. the art was incredible and as the issues went on it felt like the kinks were getting ironed out#plus getting a series focused on 3 of my favorite characters was a dream come true for me. ESPECIALLY because we rarely get good#stuff for Cass and Steph.

Been feeling frustrated with art lately, as the last few sketches I did all turned out like ass, mostly because I'm such a scrub when it comes to foreshortening.
I think I'm finally getting somewhere though. Feels great, so have a preview cuz I'm excited :P
#Borb's Garbage Dump#not gonna tag the character n series n stuff as lowkey don't want this showing in search results#i don't really know why i feel the need to do that but it is how it is#.... did i mention this one is sinful#hoping that i don't fuck up his ribs and legs to the point of deeming the whole art too awful to post#because boy howdy you have NO IDEA what's happening offscreen#maybe i missed a stray post somewhere but i haven't seen this concept used in this context in ram fandom yet#which is honestly shocking to me because HOLY SHIT it's so obvious and so hot-

curious to see if I’ll change my mind as the social link progresses since I’ve honestly forgotten it, but ehhhhhhh I find the way the tsundere trope is integrated into Marie’s character to be so boring.
#I actually love her poetry and the intense awkwardness about it#that actually tells u a lot about her and it’s funny that immortal gal is going through the teenager experience of being embarrassed that#you have feelings#but the way the tsundere stuff is integrated I’m just like. what is this doing for her.#it just feels like a trope hallmark that doesn’t deepen her character at all#esp when p4 likes to play w subtly subverting certain aesthetic tropes in its characters#like how yukiko’s whole look is supposed to evoke the idea of a prim and proper traditional beauty#(and to an extent she IS that) but she’s also an autistic spacecase who’s reserved manner is honestly in big part because she misses#social cues and is just kind of a weirdo (fond)#tunes talks persona#tunes talks critical#<- not rlly but I don’t want people to see negativity if they don’t want lol

I think there needs to be more weird artists who say fuck it I don't care if this makes sense and just put characters in situations
#one of my most popular pieces ive made is my apex one with wraith and Wattson#the idea was that wraith one day got sucked into a portal and the portal dimension refused to release her#so wattson started trying to get into the dimension to drag her back out but kept failing over and over again#id like to remake it honestly! maybe i will!#but like it made zero sense and still people liked it#i miss aus and stuff#put your blorbos in situations do it#even your ocs! people would be surprised how much ocs are loved here!#canon is fake shit anyway go play with your dolls man

can i be honest with u guys……….. i am not liking a lot of the ways the blue lock boys are characterized in fandom🧍🏼♀️
#partially my fault#bc Ive only read the manga so far#seen … one ep of the anime so a lot of the dialogue is kinda… lost on me at this point#since I haven’t heard it#but I just read stuff for it and am like … am I missing something?????? honestly#cuz the way I see those boys vs how ppl have been writing them …. HUH?#except maybe raichi#which like no one writes him so cool#but LIKE WHATS GOING ON THAT I DONT UNDERSTAND#I was thinking about if I should write something for bllk today#and I have a hard time with sports stuff#really anything non action (no idea why)#but like Jrhdjfjkfkv I’ve been hating it out here#and not knowing how to express it#or my own characterizations#caitie blabs

just finished reading what i could find of an english translation of from bureaucrat to villainess and god. i love the concept of someone getting isekai'd and their loved ones get to watch them go on adventures
#random thoughts#specifically love the idea of some guy getting isekai'd into becoming the protag of a reverse harem anime#(because honestly i love the gender swap stuff it's so cool)#and he's having to do social jujitzu trying to let everyone down easy because he misses his wife#and the wife is watching this go down like '!!! GO FOR THE BLOND ONE!!!'#cuz the wife is like. she's a 'would you love me if i was a worm' kind of girl#they have DEFINITELY had the discussion of 'if you were stuck in an alternate universe and i wasn't there would you date again'#also i think it'd be fun if he was like 'hm. i am attracted to men in this body. clearly this must be the consciousness#of the woman i'm possessing influencing me' and later on he is told by the spirit of the woman#'yeah that's not how that works' and it's like. wow. bisexuality unlocked#specifically love the idea of an older man possessing the body of a younger woman (mid-to-late twenties)

#honestly i don't.... quite know why i'm on tumblr anymore#i'm an oldie; we're talking ''i made a blog here in 2007'' oldie#so i remember the sense of community this place used to have. what you shared and created used to have value#and people would show their appreciation by actually talking to you; there was ask culture and actual reblog comments and#there was this sense that what you shared mattered#i'm not a reblog/like person really i dont care; i love a sense of exchange and discussion and idea generation#and it's probably just me but. people seldom interact with anything i say in any meaningful way here anymore#it really does feel like i'm talking to myself but i dont talk to myself on the internet that's what my diary is for#i geniunely miss a sense of enthusiastic interaction on this website and tumblr is my primary social media hell anyway#instead with the shifting internet culture and the collective apathy towards artists and consumerist mannerisms of most people#the way they just read stuff and move to the next thing without feeling like adding anything intriguing to the discussion#or express appreciation beyond basic ''this is great'“#it geniunely feels pointless to share anything.#I have so many ideas and stuff but i'm hardly motivated to share them at all anymore. who wants to talk into a fucking void?#yeah i know a lot of people really just use social media to talk to themselves but i'm not one of them; i love to connect!#but when it takes me days and weeks to polish ideas and fics and all kinds of things and they dont get any response in return#or your exceptional efforts get a lukewarm ''this is nice" at best'#yeah i think people in general have absolutely forgotten how to appreciate things and love things beyond the most basic language#and sentiments.#it's disheartening really; everybody wants to be adored but they dont know how to adore and express love#welcome to the narcissism of the social media age#anyway dont mind me i just have been thinking about moving somewhere else. bsky probably#this place is mostly pinterest+reactionary performative sociopolitical plastic takes platform now#and people wonder why nobody creates anything anymore

playing albw world and boy. did i miss the maiamais
#best loz collectable. fuck you i get item upgrades for finding these chirpy little dudes#salty talks#it is fun to play albw and see some ideas that were likely expanded upon in botw but that i honestly think work better as albw prototypes#if that makes sense. like the semi-freedom of having nearly ever tool available at the start#but only in a partial (rented) sense and costing money and even missing a tool until you do the thieves den#and only buyable after a certain point and with other traversal and w/e being out of reach for a bit#like the flippers and the two glove types and then ofc the optional item upgrades tied to the maiamai quest#and the dungeons are all so incredibly unique and even tho u can get their required item whenever that item is still. required#and in every (iirc) lorule dungeon theres that other major item to collect like a better tunic some ore the gloves yknow#the energy boost as a semi upgrade to the wall merge ability. and that ability being extremely well used across rhe whole game#albw fucks i can see it has concepts that were taken and expanded for botw but i might prefer what albw does#also the maiamais r rlly cute. theyre really good. i rlly like how you have to use a good handful of different tools to collect them#albw is really good idk why i waited so long to replay it. tbh it feels the most similar to what loz 1 was doing#the whole world is open to you and so are the items but you still need to get them and youre free to do the dungeons in any order#you just need the right stuff to get there and do them. ily albw

HOO BOI. i desperately want to write volumes about this topic alone but ill stick to a tag rant because is have so much studying lol.
demeter they could never make me hate you. you were imo the only sensible person in the myth(s) actually and a good mum. fuck u zeus
The story of Hades and Persephone isn't an abduction romance, or even a tragedy of not being able to be in two places at the same time. It's about how fucking wild it would be to have a mother who gives a shit about whether you're dead or alive, and whether you are happy.
#hades and persephone#the ill get back to this eventually tag#sick with all the awful adaptations & retellings that romanticise aspects at the price of completely and irreversibly ruining others#look i dont care what u want to enjoy or wish to believe thats none of my business its all fun and games at the end of the day#but to so blatantly ignore the orignal mythos in favour of aesthetic or whatever and insisting *thats* the standard is just cruel#part of it falls on how much were missing in the critical thinking & media literacy department and tend to accept pop culture as is#again one of the beauties of literature is its potential for interpretations.. and storytelling relies on appeasing the masses#and reaching audiences and demographics and adapting to fit the everchanging social norms and all that jazz. i know#thats not what im referring to here#its the denial of nuance and refusal to acknowledge that hey sometimes a piece of media isnt really accurate? or right? like at all#(i for one as of late have been extremely fascinated w darkfics and heavy topics being explored in media.. esp in greek mythology)#and it honestly wouldnt matter if it werent for the vehement hate it breeds against the source material and the very valid#opinions on the other side of the coin. the least we can do is do some background reading and have some common sense guys.#in this case the erasure of justified rage and grief to accentuate rebellious femininity or whatever to me is just sad#making demeter the villain? a mother who was rightfully horrified after her (underage) daughter was stolen from her#making persephone who cried and mourned during her stay in the underworld a girlboss who waltzed in on her own volition?#in some versions of the myth hades tricked her into eating the seeds. she had no idea what the implications were. NOT COOL MY DUDE#look i actually like hades and persphone in terms of theme and symbolism. like a lot. im working on stuff with them in it#but keep in mind the people places and things at play when engaging with media. think of the prices that were paid and how it relates to us#myths serve to teach lessons and morals as well as explaining natural phenomena and other things. folklore doesnt exist in a void#also as much as i love to dunk on zeus for being a piece of shit and serial rapist#he is extremely complex and multifaceted as a god and king of the gods and much more than that. as is the case for everyone in the pantheon#agh i need to go before i go on a rabbit hole so deep i find iron lol

supervisor was met. god help our souls
#I think everything is fine and this is mostly residual anxiety#but also. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA#I now have a project area that I can start properly planning out which is good#and I have a vague schedule for the next month which helps a lot#next two weeks have just become very busy bc I have the majority of the writing for my proposal to do#I’m struggling most at this minute I think with why this actually matters#bc looking like my project will be abt spatial structure within populations which like cool interesting#but I do have to talk abt why anyone should care abt this#it is kinda frustrating to me actually bc I wanted to do smth with more immediate relevance now but the area I’ve ended up with#was 1. result of me dropping the topic I actually wanted to do 2. mentioning one of the first things I could figure out smth coherent for#3. supervisor latching onto that from my email and now we’re running with it#so okay like this immediate thing I’m doing won’t have any kind of application bc this is a study system so that’s not the issue#need to think wider abt what you learn from this and generalisability#has relevance to range shifts bc of climate change and from there is important to small scale evolutionary processes#whether you get differentiation or stratification within populations#potentially more relevant to island evolution and like. gene pool stuff?#I think I’m struggling rn bc I’ve not figured out my hypotheses yet and I can test things in a way that will be useful for other things#and there IS still utility in understanding things better come on I was willing to die on the pure science hill for so long#hdhdhsjdhnshdbsb I think I’m slightly frustrated by my supervisor just not thinking very much abt stuff#like he didn’t know the schedule for the proposal deadlines and I don’t think he knows the format tbh#I also had to tell him the focus was on the one year and not the extension bc. dude this is a masters I only have a year what#I know he’s done these before and it wasn’t exactly a surprise that this was coming so I’m kinda confused and a little annoyed#but okay it’s fine it’s fine. I can email him abt importance. and I’ll be asking abt titles around Wednesday once Ive figured out some ideas#rn i need to think about what I would be testing here with what I have available and how I would do it and I can write an overview from that#figure out what are the important questions to ask and I can find stuff that would be relevant to like conservation and shit#bc I KNOW that there’s important stuff here that I’m just not seeing. I might have to link stuff to fitness to get a more rounded analysis#which is also fine I can do that that’s probably a good way to tie the project together honestly. will make that one of the main aims#I think the studies on that are kinda lacking anyway and haven’t been done in a while so would still be filling a gap and if not#I can use THOSE studies for relevance of the project. that’s what im missing i think it’s the next step so I can understand consequences#luke.txt

I know I JUST changed my theme yesterday but this one is even better so like. Bleez hours ig 😈
#I LOVE HER-#anyways this comic actually does her GOOD (for like 1 issue) and so im just !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!#blah#im literally consumed with feels for/abt her today omg#literally plotted out a 6 issue mini for her during econ today (featuring simon and guy ofc)#where she defeats (not kills!!! i have a creative solution!) Atrocitus and kills basically all the remaining RLs (not dexstarr though)#and kind of goes solo with it as a different kind of RL#which could ofc expand into a 12 issus limited series bc i leave the strand of some missing red rings going (that she has to track down)#and honestly id have ideas for some issues from an ongoing too (most crossovers)#like for example bc my redesign of her kind of has hawkgirl vibes she should get to team up w kendra (in a 2parter w p1 called two birds...?#and p2 as one stone!) and then OFC some supergirl stuff bc of them being friends during the red daughter arc AND smth with yrra as well#bc that was literally the only good bleez moment before the writer change in nu52 rls#and also they would have SO much to talk abt re: anger and loss of autonomy#and then ofc mandatory crossover with my green lantern book#: )))))))))))))) feeling happy thinking abt the comics i would write if dc hired me#im sooooooooo tenpted to try and draw covers for this now#it would have to be for the later issues though bc the issue 1 cover would be kind of boring tbh#bc shes still in her old suit for continuitys sake and the plot would make it look similar to some shitty rl covers honestly#BUT THATS HOW I WOULD GET THEM. i trick the dudebros so they think its only hot alien lady stuff but then they look inside and bam!#increased agency for female characters!!!!! and redesigns!!!!! and friendship!!!! but also ANGER!!!!!!! and JUSTICE!!!#i just 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍#thinking abt comics is sooooooooo fun mwah i love it
