at what point will I be able to draw faster
#not better. i mean FASTER#it’s really frustrating 😵💫#my brain and my hand are working at different speeds and it makes me want to scream#yeah I’ve improved at art but I still take forever to finish a piece#then again I guess it’s on me for having a lineless style bc that takes more time for me than line art#but I hate lineart#can I sell my soul to the devil or smth so I can draw faster bc I can’t do this anymore#sunny rambles

Kep did a demo run of the CGC test yesterday, he did really well and only failed on 1 step (1.5, kind of), which was the distance stay. that was actually where I expected he’d fail, he struggles a lot with stays (combo of poor impulse control + FOMO). and he half-failed the “greet a stranger” part because he did try and jump up at first, and then the person we were using was like “oh I just ate a bag of chips” and used her other hand to pet and he stayed sitting, so we’re not sure if he was jumping bc rude or bc he smelled snacks.
he gets a final run opportunity next week, so we’ll try and work on practicing his stays more and see if we can make enough progress to get it done. if he still can’t do it I’m not too pressed, I think at that point it’s just a matter of letting him grow up a bit and regain some brains. he did really well on everything else (no barking! what an experience) so I’m still pleased overall!
#Kep is like me - he tests really well even if he doesn’t use the skills in everyday life (ADHD brain solidarity)#meaning he’s still a menace at home but can focus enough to be good while testing lol#I’m sure a better trainer could have his stay good enough by now but I’ll do what I can#the ‘scary sound distraction’ was so funny the trainer just loudly dropped the clipboard she was using on the ground behind him#and he walked slightly faster but didn’t even turn around to look at it#Carefree Lad

School is going so great and also I am so exhausted and also I am having an existential crisis
#teaching tag#the kids are great and I think I’m doing a good job teaching them and also I miss the ones from last year so much 😭😭😭😭😭#even though I know I will miss these too once they’re gone like why does 😭😭😭 it gotta be 😭😭😭😭 this way#it’s just a totally different vibe every time#the school year has a new flavor!!! and I hate that!!!!!#change is so bad and disgusting 😭😭😭#but also I think it’s good and I’m doing a good job keeping them moving#one of the revelations/realizations that I’ve had. is that I’m just starting to shift my focus#from …. wanting them to be moved to just wanting them to be engaged?#and I think it’s better.#I’m not quite wholly there. but I mean learning how to actually construct a class so that they are busy and their minds are being stretched#and employed and learning on multiple levels without just saying what I want to happen at them#and it’s a good shift but also a shift that’s making me sad#for whatever reason#it feels like another sign of maturity#but sometimes I miss my own highs#mostly I’m just so unbelievably tired lol.#like the physical and mental stamina required that I just don’t have yet#is so much.#but some strong starts have been made#and also (dare I say this lol) the effects of my reputation being established are also working in my favor#they’re a little bit scared. they’re a little bit more ready to engage and they’re more on board than they used to be#like. it’s happening faster. in terms of getting the class under control#and that’s nice. cause I remember it used to take weeks and weeks. months really.#and of course it’s ongoing and unpredictable.#but it’s better this time#anyway just rambling

I cannot express how much I need this in my life. I cannot express how much I think about this. I like to imagine Speakermen like to live their lives like it's a musical, so,
Speakermen working, doing upgrades/repairs on Titan Speakerman, to the beat of "Harder Better Faster Stronger" (And obviously dancing while doing so)
And I mean the OG soundtrack only. Not the inferior remixes.
#this song is just the most perfect factory work song in the world#i always listen to this song when i'm doing inventory and preparing material at work#work it HARDER make it BETTER do it FASTER makes us STRONGER#speakermen#skibidi toilet#skibidi toilet speakermen#titan speakerman#Spotify#and i mean DAFT PUNK ONLY#none of those shitty remixes#i need more speakermen enjoying FUNK.

hey sorry i wanna talk some more about no one mourns the wicked.
when glinda's introduced, her first celebratory lines slide into a question:
Isn't it nice to know that good will conquer evil, the truth we all believe'll by and by outlive a lie for you and - [I]?
and in a song full of double meanings, glinda isn't asking that question (only) to the ozians. she's asking it to elphaba, who has always been that other half of "you and i." even though glinda has promised not to reveal the truth, she's still hoping that it will come to light someday for her and elphaba. and it's also a heartbreaking call-forward to defying gravity, because just like that moment where glinda almost gets on the broom, there can't be a "you and i" here--it's cut off by the world they exist in.
#ready for a tag ramble?#it's interesting that by the end of the story glinda and elphaba's values#are the most aligned they've ever been#glinda cares about affecting real change#and elphaba understands you need people and perception in order to do that#by the end the people they've changed into COULD HAVE worked together#i think end-of-story glinda could have gotten on the broom#and i think end-of-story elphaba would have at least reached out for help#but the damage has been done and their personas cemented in the eyes of oz#so that's no longer an option#it's what irks me about fiyero as a love interest#not necessarily as a flaw in the writing but just on a personal level#that i never feel he really understands elphaba's values even as he supports them#and he lacks the same tension between loving his home and being ostracized from it that glinda and elphaba have#(even though he SHOULD have it because he arcs the exact same way as glinda but faster)#(not to mention all the stuff they could have pulled with him being from winkie/the vinkus)#anyway and also i understand that people are coming to this realization genuinely and independently#and that i also had the moment where i saw the double meaning and went OH#but nomtw is not JUST about glinda calling herself wicked#there's also grief#and hope for a better future#and disappointment in the ozians' lack of empathy#and a commentary on how we'd rather label and punish someone wicked#than look at the broader systems that put people into impossible positions#(a commentary that is VERY relevant if the discussion turns solely into#'actually GLINDA was the wicked one and ELPHABA was the good one!')#figured i'd put all this here because i've already ranted like three times#on the villanizing glinda front#so. there it is#wicked

if i may allow myself a monthly Joker Moment, a lot of the harshness i have towards myself tends to be a side effect of how the rpc as a whole tends to operate.
i have a lot of joy and love for the things i create. when i share them in rp spaces here though? sometimes it gets hard to keep loving them, and myself as well.
#�� ˚₊ · 𝖔𝖚𝖙 𝖔𝖋 𝖈𝖍𝖆𝖗𝖆𝖈𝖙𝖊𝖗 ✗ long lost words whisper slowly to me. ❞#negative cw#tbd.#don't get me wrong. it's not as though i /don't/ experience joy when sharing my creations here.#and i really do appreciate all the love and support i've received in return.#re-reading messages/threads/etc. here often cheers me up during bad days.#there's just a level of instability & lack of permanence in the rpc;#that i still haven't quite grasped how to cope with in a healthy manner? (aside from just being here less often lol.)#like... does love and encouragement from a mutual truly mean anything. when in the end they dropped you like a used tissue?#was ur ship truly that special? when u get ghosted the moment ur ship partner finds someone better? more interesting? faster at writing?#did you and your rp partner truly get along? when the slightest misunderstanding or disagreement lands you in their blocklist?#are you really okay when any of the above happens? or are you just expected to be?#because if any real life equivalent of any of this stuff happened to you irl. you'd be hurt. you'd be sad. that is normal.#sometimes i feel like there's this expectation to react to hurtful things like a machine in rp spaces.#and just... keep moving and operating like normal in spite of something upsetting happening. it's odd.#and it gets hard to remember that i'm actually a person. who deserves to be treated like a person.#(ironically. typing all this is making me remember some characters i made for staticmonitor's lore when i was active on the blog.#they were a commentary on some tumblr rpc-isms. but i found them too negative to fully realize. it's funny to think about now tbh.)#anyways... plz excuse the crashout here. i had a shit day at work and i'm kinda derealized lmao.#i'll delete this later.

Hello prince!
So I was looking at your fan art guide and character sheets (which I love, I definitely want to draw any of them soon!!) and I saw on Cassius’ that he’s aromantic. So what going to happen with the knight and him? I’m not to knowledgeable on aromantic but know that it’s no romantic feelings. I’m sorry if this seems like I’m disliking the fact that he is in any way, I’m just a little confused is all since I don’t know much about that.
I enjoy your Audios so much and have a nice day!!
well that's up to you to research aromanticism if you want to learn more about it.
yes cassius is aromantic, and he still loves his knight. you can love someone without being able to feel romantic attraction. platonic love exists. and i don't need to explain how that works for him as he's already done that. there's an entire audio of casisus realising his knight is in love with him, and explaining that he himself is aromantic and while he wants to be together with his knight he worries about not being enough because he's aromantic, to which his knight assures him that isn't the case. I can't explain him better than he does. and while cassius is aromantic, he is not asexual and is very much sexually attracted to his knight.
but it's not my job or responsibility to explain aromanticism. and not all aromantic people want platonic or qpp (queer platonic partner) relationships. and not all aromantic people are allosexual like cassius is, some are aroace. cassius does not and cannot ever represent all aromantic people as not all aromantic people are the same. and aromanticism just like asexuality is a spectrum with various labels around it. i myself am not aromantic and do not want to speak for aromantic people, i am demiromantic and repcipromantic. and i do not feel like i can explain any identities better than people already have. there's lgbt+ identity wikis out there, there's a whole aromantic tag on tumblr. are lgbt+ wikis always the best source of information? no. but it took me two seconds to google 'aromantic' and get a page for 'aromantic' and the' aromantic spectrum' and both tell you everything in much simpler and better terms than i could.
i guess that this is coming from a place of ignorance/not being knowledgable and not maliciousness. but someone being aromantic doesn't mean they can't have a partner or close relationships or love people. there's more than one way to love someone. you can easily go and find out more about aromanticism yourself and i'm not qualified nor want to be someone who's answering asks about what a sexuality or gender label means. you could have just googled aromantic rather than come to my ask box and wait hours for an answer and i think you'd get a better answer that way.
/nm
#like i dont mean this to come across as a 'google is free' answer but its a bit..#well it is free. and i think for people on the aro spectrum it can get tiring when people think it means you cant love anyone#or cant want anyone#and obvs i dont mind getting asks but im unsure why anyone would ask me a question like explaining aromanticism when youd get#a faster and better answer through google#a question about my characters sure ask me. a questoin about the definition of a word i think you shuold go to google#the vampire answers#cassius#the vampires ocs

As another Magneto player honestly if I'm up against a Wolverine and I think he's gonna get me I try and hold my ult to solo ult him when he's trying to jump me. Might not kill him but it gives me a headstart.
solo ulting a wolverine is crazy but honestly depending on the situation fair enough 😭
#snap chats#like i cant ever WHOLLY admonish a solo ult because It Depends On The Situation. also its funny sometimes#as of this moment im trying to figure out what best to do against a wolverine as mags#i have to open up the game and mess around in the practice area but like... idk pick a god and pray#just hope he doesnt isolate you idfk 👀👄👀#ok no let me be fr let me actually try to think. im pretty sure mags' left click does....#ok i cant im opening the game really quick brb#ok im back vkAELJAKLE#logan rn has 300 hp and can be taken out in four direct hits. fuck me i forgot mags' right click HANG ON#ok im back. whyd i do all that my conclusion was youre definitely fucked if wolverine has his revive JVELAKGJAEKL#ill at least say for those who dont know mags' left click does 90 per hit and 30 on splash damage#and his right click escalates from 50 -> 80 -> 110 . im p sure. either that or 45 -> 75 -> 105#i dont have a friend to help me see the exact numbers i just have to look at the health bar indents jvlejakl#also your bubble lasts for three seconds BUT can pop if damaged too much. again i dont know that damage threshold due to Lack Of Friends#his barrier is infinite tho and takes 10 seconds to fully recharge after using + you can track it with the lil bar on the right#his barrier at max health holds for three seconds which doesnt sound like a lot but yes it is you WILL feel the difference#anyway even solo ulting could be risky cause if he didnt use his lunge already and /or still has revive#1.) he could grab you out of ult 2.) he comes back from dying and gets you anyway#not totally purposeless like Again you did get rid of his revive so .. again it depends ..#having wanda could probably help mags a lot their chaos blade does the same as mags' fully-charged rings#can definitely cut down logan a lot faster so i mean ... better hope you have a wanda on your team ig lol ..#we'll get to that when we get to it it might not even be that bad ...... eearjaLKJa

After many years, guess who decided to try their hand at bookbinding again?
That's right, me! And of course I chose I giant of a fic, because I am nothing if not ambitious XD. I think it's 3 inches or more thick, and came to a whopping 1088 pages! The fic is Count Your Blessings by @madmothmadame , a Founders Era Tobirama centric fic and I cannot recommend it enough <3 <3 <3
My cover fabric and end paper are pretty simple, one part because I thought it suited the story, one part because I had them on hand, and one part because I'm a raw beginner and that's about as good as I could manage XD
It took a lot of waffling on my part (graphic design is NOT a great skill of mine) but overall I ended up really happy with how the title page came out - if I had the artistic skill to paint/draw it or the supplies to transfer it, this would have gone on the cover as well. Alas, for now it shall remain inside only.
A little detail that gave me some grief, as I waffled on font style and size a bit, but ultimately I'm really pleased with it - I used a plum blossom branch as the scene break throughout the book. If you've read the fic, you probably know why I picked that particular image for this and the title page ;)
I realized after printing that some of my paper had gotten a bit aged, even though it was stored in the printer. I wasn't about to waste the paper, ink and time for a reprint though, so I left it. Since the book is for me, little things like that are no bother. I was just glad I didn't fuck up in the printing or signature sewing order X'D
I included the authors notes from the end of each chapter as a bonus section at the end, so they'd be preserved with the story but not breaking up the flow of reading the book ^_^
Final view, this time from the spine - think I left the gap a little to wide between the cover boards and spine but eh, again this is just for me and only my third binding ever (and certainly the largest! XD) so I'm still really pleased overall.
A very fun experience, and I'm looking forward to my next re-read of the story, where I'll be doing it with my very own chonky boi version held in my hands :3
#viv18art#bookbinding#naruto#tobirama#count your blessings#really glad I decided to bind this fic#it was just as fun as I remembered#except better because I have a good printer now#so I could do that at home and not have it buggered up like it was for ayem#also had the bonus of a binder kicking the bucket at work last week#so I had the opportunity to scavenge the boards#made the cover part easier for me for sure#I've kinda got the binding bug now#this project went so well imperfections and all#and SO much faster than I thought#like it took me... I dunno three weekends and a bit?#I spent more time figuring out the formatting than anything#once I was on to the physical portion the project just flew#it was great#very looking forward to the next one#and I have so many fics I'd love to bind <3#best part is even if it takes me a bit to get stuff for the cover#I can make the text blocks whenever and just have them ready#I mean of course I like to do it all at once#but sometimes needs must#and the text block part is my fave part anyways soooo#yeah#new hobby unlocked methinks

I know, I know, it was his idea to bring Cora back to his place, but I think something might finally be clicking for Dawson...
"Oh my god, Dawson, the grill is dis-gusting! You really shouldn't let it get this bad—"
...Cora is a genuinely lovely person. But as casual as they have set out to keep things, it's seeming like she might be investing more of herself into this than Dawson realized. And Dawson is maybe feeling a teeny bit more into things with someone else?
(And besides, helping out with sourcing medicinal plants and books about herbalism doesn't just automatically get you a 50% stake in profits. Where'd she get that idea?)
#truly though#ive never done a faster 180 on plans for a character#the people have spoken#and by people i mean me and the 3 people who agree w me 😤#but yeah cora deserves better than being dawson's safe option#doubly so with risky woohoo back in play 😬#rebuild a city#ts4 bacc#3_19#ts4#ts4 gameplay#dawson kelley#survivors!

"A lot of fans were startled at how Louis sounded on the LIVE album this year, because he sounds like the Louis in the studio!" Some of his live vocals from the shows were replaced on the live album so it's hard to tell
lol you hate Louis yet you compulsively read this blog. Why.
