Digital Circus AMA Notes
Digital Circus is getting a season 1 at some point!!!!
#webcore aesthetic board for the series design
Pomni was going to be a frog originally. 🐸
90s toys Zooble inspo
Caine is an antagonist, but not by active choice, he doesn't know he's not helping. He doesn't feel a whole spectrum of human emotions (he's an AI).
"Caine canonically just lets things happen if he thinks it's funny."
Characters eat like Chao in Chao garden in Sonic. The characters can eat the food, but they can't digest it.
Jax's favorite food is spaghetti.
Pomni likes salmon.
Q "Was the ending a 'Last Supper' reference?" A "in a very superficial kinda way yeah." Religious stuff is sometimes just used for the funny.
Gooseworx tumblr sketches MAY or MAY NOT be canon to the series, so it's up in the air for every single one.
People can abstract from feeling too much pain if it breaks their mind from it being too much. Characters feel pain from things, but not as intensely as they would in real life.
Zooble is gonna swap parts every episode (implying they have spare parts) except their body & head.
Jax chose his own name & gooseworx likes to think he chose Gangle's name.
Ragatha was named "Emmy" originally.
They (the cast of characters trapped in the circus) can't change their clothes but Caine can. It's part of their skin sorta kinda.
There's empty space under Pomni's hat because video game model physics.
Spamton was partially inspo for Caine, Caine's VA did Spamton dubs.
Gangle only has 2 masks. Why's it (her hapiness mask) break all the time? Mental state, but the "real her" is "harder to break."
Kaumfo was gonna be part of the main cast originally before Jax.
Kaufmo's model has nothing below the waist at this time, but was made for that promotional image on twitter.
Q "What kinda person was Kaufmo?" A "He was the same as Ragatha in a sense, goofy & cheery, sometimes toxic levels of positivity."
I'm paraphrasing for the sake of note taking in real time, go watch the stream playback for more context & details if you want.
#these are all from GLITCHX 2023 on the glitch productions youtube channel btw#for anyone curious as to where I got the screenshots & details#theory crafters pop off with this#someone else can reblog this with time stamps if you want I'm pretty tired#I'm not going back through that stream right now; I'm sure someone else will put timestamps in the comments maybe#but yeah consider the amazing digital circus officially greenlit for a first season I guess! :D#tadc season 1 eventually baybeee!!#I'm hyped! I wonder if the pilot will remain canon into season 1 or if we'll get a new introduction into the series.#Wonder why Jax called Gangle... well Gangle 👀 maybe he just thought it sounded silly or something i'm curious as to what gooseworx thought#Caine's AI really thought Pomni running around looking for him & Kaufmo abstracted in his room was funny 😐 or his AI is glitchy#(we saw him glitching out already in the pilot) alternatively I think Bubble could be distracting Caine on purpose but idk just yet#imagine how much pain Ragatha was in since they can all actually feel that though like being body slammed & thrown against walls & stuff 😬#also excited to see some Gangle-centric content in the future based on that comment about the 'real her' 👀#Kaufmo would probably make jokes at really dark moments when it wasn't appropriate because that was a coping mechanism for him poor guy 😭#mine#op#the amazing digital circus#tadc

girl math is making $670 for the week and then spending $650 of it on a credit card bill and now you're excited because you made a profit of $20 in your bank account and $650 more of free money
#this is a joke i am not excited#i am very much in pain#we cope with laughs#i hate the gauntlet of holidays and special occasions from december through to march#it's christmas then it's new years then it's valentine's and my husband and i's anniversary merged together and then it's my bday#all of that's done with now but both our wallets are hurting lmao#and worse yet i still can't even catch a break because now i need to prepare for conventions and tax season#at least one of those expo's will definitely pay for my taxes#and i'm thankful this year i have three to attend so i get to actually earn money from them LOL#but man the winter season this year was one of the worst i've ever seen for tattooing#it's starting to get a little bit back to normal now but i'm still on edge because it could go back to being dead again at any moment#i got this#i just wish i could breathe lmao

So I know we here at Startrekfandom love that "came back wrong but from the pov of the wrong" thing and apply it to many different characters and canon situations and I am far from trying to complain about it (I'm "came out wrong" trope myself so I was always gonna obsess over it) but having recently watched a very important episode (you'll know which one) for the first time I think there's a character who hits both tropes mentioned but llike, intertwined, opposite and subverted, and whom I wanna talk about.
Julian Bashir.
From his parents' pov he's "came out wrong but we got him help and he came back better" while from his own pov it's "came out 'insufficient', was destroyed for it, came back wrong and only later slowly came to terms with his new self tho never the process (justifiably so)" and it's heartbreaking because in a way, he's right! Jules Bashir died! His parents had an intellectually disabled child and decided to eugenics him! Julian is not the person he used to be and while I do love the person he is now, that doesn't bring back who he was! Part of me wishes we could've gotten to see Jules at least once and part of me hopes we never do because my heart would shatter.
This isn't a good comparison but nonetheless one I can't help drawing: it's giving similar vibes to anti-vaxxers. "I'd rather risk having a child who is dead than one who's autistic". Obviously this doesn't map over since Julian is still autistic and the procedure his parents subjected him to specifically targeted his intellectual disability and if any folks with id wanna comment on this I definitely recommend you listen to them over me, but it's a similarity I, as an autistic who has encountered anti-vaxxers again and again, can't help but point out. "Give me a normal child or give them death."
This may have been written about already but there needs to be stories about teenage Julian (after finding out and rediscovering who he was) practicing some good ol' recognition of the self through media. I need to hear about how he would encounter a story about someone who came back wrong (I'm gonna assume there's plenty of "wrong" pov stories floating around by the 24th century) and absolutely weep. I need to see Julian mourning Jules, taking years and years to process his feelings, experiencing guilt about how he, the imposter, didn't deserve to live Jules' life.
Came back wrong from the returned's pov but it wasn't an accident. It was done to you deliberately by the people who claim to love you. And now you are here, piloting the corpse of your predecessor.
Jules Bashir is dead. Long live Julian Bashir.
#i've called julian jules before simply as a normal nickname but i don't think i ever will again. not after this#and knowing that if it had been possible i would have probably gone the way jules did. knowing that at his age i would have gone willingly.#fuck dude i am literally actually crying literal tears irl right now this is not a joke#fuck!!!!!#julian bashir#jules bashir#doctor bashir i presume#came back wrong#star trek deep space nine#HE WAS SIX YEARS OLD!! HE WAS SIX YEARS OLD AND THEY KILLED HIM!!!!#i cannot stop crying i am literally crying and like not even just a little#i cannot... poor julian how the FUCK do you ever come to terms with something like that#and like... julian remembers. he has most if not all of jules' memories and also knows he was murdered simply for not being julian#like how did he cope#(im about to go off on a tangent that will contain censored names for the sake of not clogging those tags if you dont know who i mean hmu)#like this is literally the thing that fucked up j*ran so bad he went on a murder spree isn't it#he remembers the one who came before who was killed. very different circumstances of course esp since tr*ll are expected to replace one ano#another but he remembers this person he remembers BEING this person who was young and simply enjoying life and who died a sudden death and#he remembers the experience of that death as well and how it lead to his own creation. it's not remotely similar ofc but considering that#the only time we see t*rias in alpha canon is in julian's body... i need to lie down for a moment.#and jor*n couldn't cope! he couldn't! it was far too much and the weird thing is right now in this moment i GET it y'know?? like that's#so horrific. and i haven't watched any jo*an episode besides facets yet but do you think. do you think j*dzia told julian about all this an#he nodded along and kept composure and then when he was alone he broke down crying? like julian you're doing SO well ily you're coping and#you shouldn't have to obviously but you do nonetheless!! do you think julian still has something from jules? like i've heard there's a tedd#but i mean jules prolly didn't keep a diary he was a six year old with an intellectual disability it's pretty unlikely he could write but#does julian have drawings made by jules? i'd like to think so but honestly his parents probably threw them out. like they also moved so#sorry i'm just. many thoughts head full. ive stopped crying now but who knows for how long. also i'll have to tag this with my original tag#maybe i should've picked something less silly for when i make serious posts but like what am i gonna change my url as well? don't think so#original posts fresh from quark's pussy#and thats the tag limit folks it's been fun. i had to delete two other tags but my god. anyway. thinking about jules bashir forever & cryin

TW: SH
So it's 2024 and we're still demonizing s3lf-h@rm aren't we? (a serious rant below)
reminder that if you are triggered by this subject I have given a TW above, please do not interact with triggering content, it is not a smart thing to do, you deserve better. /gen
When I go online and I see a mentally well person making a "wrist barcode" joke about someone else, everybody laughs with them.
but then a mentally ill person makes the same exact joke, word for word, every single reply is some variation of "g0 d33p3r"
which is really funny guys, go actively seek out people who want to die and basically tell them to do it and even recommend the way in which they should. /s
"oh they're doing it for attention!" that means that they are being so neglected at home they need to do anything to try to get somebody to care about them. that is mental illness an it is valid. /srs
"they're like 12 they're being dramatic!" yes because everybody knows children cannot experience mental health struggles, that's why when I was 11 and had an anxiety attack at the mall I immediately snapped back to it when I was reminded that "there's no reason for you to do that." /s
"they're doing it because they think it's cool!" okay I have nothing to say to you except maybe take a step back and think about how what you just said is so fucking stupid like I'm sorry, what???? /srs
could you imagine that a person could hate themselves so much, they feel the nee to punish themselves? could you imagine that a person feels so numb and awful that the only way they could feel anything else is if something horrible happened to their body? /srs
I am so glad that most of you people have never felt the pain an suffering of clinical depression brings onto a human being, /srs
But god damn! why can't you have a little more empathy to people who are struggling with a serious illness that MAKES THEM WANT TO DIE????? /srs
#this is coming from somebody who was at one point addicted to that#I didn't tell anybody not even my doctors until it became dangerous and had to be admitted#we just want to cope with it by making jokes#people who post their sh on the internet are CRYING FOR HELP and you are kicking them while they are down#an you think it's fucking funny#I want this post to reach as many people as possible because this seriously makes me sick to my stomach to see. I see it from my own parent#and I see it in supposed “safe spaces” now too. it's disgusting#mental health#mental health awareness#sh awareness#depression awareness#depression advice#recovery#mental health support#my post

WHAT IS IT ABOUT ATSUSHIS LEG THAT JUST MAKES PEOPLE GO "ah yes. I Must Cut Off The Leg. It Needs to Go"????
#Like every time#Fist offense was akutagawa#Second was Nikolai#Then fukuchi cuts off atsushis leg#And akutagawa has to throw it at atsushi#And then atsushi loses his arm against fuckuchi in round 2 magic time sword bullshit#And now we've got atsushi losing both his leg and arm in one go to akutagawa AGAIN#We started with aku and were ending with him to I guess#But yeah#Atsushi has lost his leg 4 times and his arm 2 over the course of 110 chapters#Joking about atsushis leg is a Coping Mechanism#bungo stray dogs#bungou stray dogs#bsd atsushi#bsd akutagawa#bsd sskk#God I hope everyone's still alive

Brandy isn’t ‘lazy’ she’s depressed and has been very open about this and how this year has been one of the worst and hardest of her life (her words on Twitter). She’s now working a full time job while dealing with all her mental health issues so of course she doesn’t have much time to dedicate to her music career, like as soon as I get home from work all I wanna do is sleep and not think about doing anything else lol depression can really take out most of your energy and passion to do things you love.
I really don’t think it’s fair to call her lazy and say she’s squandering her opportunities especially because she’s obviously going through a lot right now, but that’s just my opinion 🤷🏽♀️
look i get that, i really really do
if she wasnt posting on socials at all then i definitely wouldnt be so harsh on her but shes literally posting every single day. i know that whats posted doesnt necessarily reflect someones mental state or reality but she literally just needs to post screenshots of her music. thats it. thats literally all she has to do. maybe mention a song once a week, like it's so so simple
i will admit i might be fairly biased though cause i was down bad depressed in highschool/uni and i managed to make it through schooling/my degree. i know it doesnt work like this but, my brain cant help but see it as 'if i could do it then why cant she?' - like its hard, i know that, but just push yourself a little ? (THIS IS PROBS PROBLEMATIC but its my subconscious thoughts. thats my point though, im admitting im probably viewing it in a very subjective way)
i just personally find it very hard to sympathise when her bf has done all the heavy lifting for star baby promo so far and she is out here posting 24/7 but can't even mention her music once. like girllll youre already doing what you have to do (being active), just mention a song - you're already doing 50% of what needs to be done ???? why not just put a song title on a selfie every once in a while like huh ? its literally not hard to do
i know as well as the next person that depression fucks with your motivation and passion but shes still out there being active as ever. idk im probably being too judgemental in thinking that social media promo is easy. but also im not sorry about it, it literally is easy when all you have to do is talk about your own project however you want to with no constraints
also is her job not in social media marketing ? how can she do that and not be capable of her own marketing ? huh ?
also she literally only just got a job - shes had alllllll the time in the world up until now
i get it but at the same time i really really dont
#my depression made me turn to substances though so we probably handle things very differently#for her sake i hope she didnt have to sort that out lmao was not a fun time#like i think you absolutely can push yourself#even while depressed#idk then i would go on wild benders every weekend so i guess pushing myself through depression wasn't really working for me either HAHA#wdym you can feel happy without drugs#sounds fake to me#dw guys I'm all chill now 😎😎😎#these are things of the pastttttt#i wasnt addicted to any one thing thank fuck#i just had very very unhealthy coping habits#and Melbourne being such a huge party city made it extremely easy to hide the fact i was doing far too much far too often#i love not remembering a single weekend of 2019 🤪🤪🤪#thats a joke#i do not in fact love that#ask#me over sharing as per usual#amh

Just saw the popular vote results... yeah, no more playing nice. I need Kamala Harris to beat the shit out of Donald Trump like Wendy did to Cartman in that one South Park episode.
#tw politics#Supposedly the election is not over till December or someone concedes#Kamala#sweety#do. not. fucking. concede#There's still a chance#a very tiny chance but I need to remain delusional right now so I don't loose my fucking mind#But yeah#I'm not a massive South Park fan but I watch that episode when I need to feel something#I need to see that woman beat the shit out of that orange fuck#I know it's violent and not the American way and blah blah blah#but gods#if she cannot win at least let me see her (or any other woman tbh) beat up Donald Trump so I have catharsis for the next four years#Fuck everyone who voted for Trump btw#The fuck do y'all hate women so much that you'd rather a felon elected?#Embarrassment of a fucking country I stg#i hate it here#FOR THE RECORD#AND FOR THE FBI AGENT IN MY LAPTOP#I am NOT suggesting violence or starting a riot#I'm making an (admittedly bad) joke to cope#We shouldn't beat up political candidates... at least in the same way we shouldn't drink on dry campuses#I need to go rewatch that episode#I need to feel something

Lepidoptera :handshake: Boxelder - episodes in obscure horror web series where the antagonistic supernatural entity teleports the protagonist around a bunch and glitches their camera just to torture them
EDIT: Just to be safe, epilepsy warning for both of these. Boxelder has timestamps for the flashing parts in its video description.
#both also end with big reveals but they're different enough i decided not to include it as a similarity#because watching lepidoptera's big reveal for the first time felt more like 'ohohohohohoho i wasn't consciously predicting that'#'but it makes So Much Sense and was so fucking satisfying to watch'#while boxelder's is more like 'shit this thing's even more powerful than we thought but also we might've just gotten some new information?'#blankmoth#the lazarus epiphany#now that i'm comparing these series i think neil and stephen would get along alright if they ever met#though i think stephen would probably be concerned enough by neil's complete and utter weirdness to ask vin about it later#''does neil. you know. act like... that as a coping mechanism or something?''#''no he was also like that before learning about The Horrors. if anything he's toned it down since then''#''wh- really?''#''i wish i was joking. reeeeeally wish i was''

i shouldn't have stayed up until 3am watching elden ring lore videos so now I'm like can we talk about shabiri? can we talk about the merchants? can we talk about miquella and malenia? can we talk about marika's less than stellar parenting skills?
#i do love the lore videos that are clearly just for a joke though#like how the dungeater has a secret romance ending#fromsoftware tell us why shabiri is worse than the dungeater!!! what did he say???#also the videos on quests cut from the game#which are incredible#especially kalès#is hyetta actually irena or is she not#irena's body is still on the ground is it just a programming error or something more 👀👀👀👀#can we talk about it!!!!#I'm supposed to go out and interact with people now#how will i cope#i really get the appeal of why people get so into other fromsoftware games#this is fun#vyke became so close to elden lord but eventually failed#lmao unlike my tarnished get good vyke#elden ring

yesterday was awful but my dream last night was so genuinely comforting i was heartbroken waking up like not to sound downright delusional but :') i so vividly remember hugging jay so so tightly and him being so warm and kind and loving like oml i need to get a hold of myself
#tp#we were just standing there so cozy hugging in the middle of the empty small street with just a single streetlight#and it was warm but there was a little breeze and he didnt say anything and neither did i#i'd just ran up to him in relief and he'd taken me in his arms so readily and we stayed just like that for the entirety of the dream#i can still FEEL the hug im not even joking i remember so so so vividly im actually so so lonely my god get a grip vie#this whole entire day i kept getting lost in my thoughts i kept thinking about how nice it felt#i almost cried thinking about it#i have never been really hugged affectionately like that and so softly at that#so remembering it feels like torture#who knows if i'll ever get one#the more time passes the more i feel like it's a punishment#it was the nicest feeling ever for a while but now im just trying to cope with the fact that i may as well prepare to die all alone#ill in the head weak in the heart i may never find someone who'll love me like jay does in my dreams#everyone pointing their finger at me when asked who's the most delusional girl to ever exist 🤭🤭
