Speaking of design in general, not necessarily graphic design, my wife sent me the most unhinged multi-level pun of a cosplay I've ever seen.
It's Memphis Pyramid Head

changes and trends in horror-genre films are linked to the anxieties of the culture in its time and place. Vampires are the manifestation of grappling with sexuality; aliens, of foreign influence. Horror from the Cold War is about apathy and annihilation; classic Japanese horror is characterised by ānatureās revengeā; psychological horror plays with anxieties that absorbed its audience, like pregnancy/abortion, mental illness, femininity. Some horror presses on the bruise of being trapped in a situation with upsetting tasks to complete, especially ones that compromise you as a person - reflecting the horrors and anxieties of capitalism etc etc etc. Cosmic horror is slightly out of fashion because our culture is more comfortable with, even wistful for, āthe unknown.ā Monster horror now has to be aware of itself, as a contingent of people now live in the freedom and comfort of saying āI would willingly, gladly, even preferentially fuck that monster.ā But I donāt know much about films or genres: that ground has been covered by cleverer people.
I donāt actually like horror or movies. What interests me at the moment is how horror of the 2020s has an element of perception and paying attention.
Multiple movies in one year discussed monsters that killed you if you perceived them. There are monsters you canāt look at; monsters that kill you instantly if you get their attention. Monsters where you have to be silent, look down, hold still: pray that they pass over you. M Zombies have changed from a hand-waved virus that covers extras in splashy gore, to insidious spores. A disaster film is called Donāt Look Up, a horror film is called Nope. Even trashy nun horror sets up strange premises of keeping your eyes fixed on something as the devil GETS you.
No idea if this is anything. (I havenāt seen any of these things because, unfortunately, I hate them.) Someone who understands better than me could say something clever here, and I hope they do.
But the thing Iām thinking about is what this will look like to the future, as the Victorian sex vampires and Cold War anxieties look to us. I think theyāll have a little sympathy, but they probably wonāt. You poor little prey animals, the kids will say, you were awfully afraid of facing up to things, werenāt you?
#this is the sort of observation I make here that people#go off and write their thesis about#so while Iām not expecting to be the first or cleverest person to say this#if you do use it as a springboard#tell me if you get a good grade ok?#Iāll be tremendously proud of you#like if you take a shitpost and use it to craft deep attentive thought on something important#I just think thatās probably the most noble use of a human brain#it makes me want to take off my hat and slam it to the ground in inexpressible emotion#itās a cowboy hat btw#and I say something like GOLDURN IT THAT KID SURE HAS DELIVERED.#ok so donāt deny me this#especially if you correct me after a long research journey#GOLDURN IT THE KID IS RIGHT!

you've had too much of the digital love you want everything live, you want things you can touch you want something bizarre, old conceptual cars you want girls dressed in drag, you want boys with guitars you go ask your questions like, "what makes a man?" oh, it's 2020 so it's time to change that so you go make an album and call it dreamland
(au: spending his 50th birthday alone in lockdown forces semi-retired rockstar crowley to face all the thoughts he normally buries with distractions. when he realises all his life regrets are just confusion around his sexuality, songwriting his feelings is the only thing that seems to help, but he doesn't have the understanding to figure it out on his own. even though they haven't spoken since graduation 30 years ago, crowley knows his old school friend aziraphale is the one person who'll be able to figure him out)
#my rockstar crowley is finally here š¤²#yes ok i wrote like 50 words and needed to draw it immediately#the fic is still so deep in planning idek if it'll come before CEO au#but here's a hot grey rock crowley anyway š#ratwips#dreamland au#good omens#gomens#crowley#good omens au#rat draws

class swap design masterpost for convenience (from top to bottom: bard!riz, cleric!gorgug, sorcerer!kristen, barbarian!fig, artificer!adaine, and rogue!fabian)
#dimension 20#fantasy high#fhfy#fhsy#fhjy#riz gukgak#gorgug thistlespring#kristen applebees#figueroth faeth#adaine abernant#fabian seacaster#my class swap stuff! oh yeah I think I got a tag for that I'll call that#fh class quangle#gna slowly go back and get that tag on relevant posts too. for organization's sake#even tho I didnt really intend this blog to be that kinda blog lmao. we were all just gonna be out here dealin with that at our own pace#anyways uh! they! u know all the lore for the designs already I put em in tags. but otherwise this also collects like the#color keys kind of for these. mostly the things that change between designs#doing this did make me realise half of these are a Lot more consistent in color keys than the other half lol#like kristen's palette stays pretty much the same. and fabian's. the hit's mostly in the construction#a lot of this is overall like an exercise in remembering what high schoolers would actually wear and how to work in Costume pieces#on this point at least I straight up have No relevant recollection lmao all the basic education establishments I went to have uniforms#and outside of school I was. well kind of a shorts and tee guy. so#on that topic I feel like fabian's is the furthest stretch lmao. like if a guy in high school wears the same bright yellow raincoat#to school every day that's like. people would Not like that guy. fabian really is saved by being cute and a rogue#he will still have stans when he's deep in his fishing arc in junior year he's the manic pixie dream bf#anyways uh. things to do! stuff to get done. sleep first tho. have a good night lads#I have not caught new nsbu yet! seems I mostly catch them like two to three days late nowadays.#so please uhh. don't reply on my posts with nsbu spoilers? we are all excited and having fun but that's rude#ok thank u. signing off for the day have a good night#!!

Grief as a time machine
#i forgot that the 1st episode of ds9 is kinda abt sisko letting go of his dead wife and moving on#the main reason i wanted to draw this was bc the actress who plays Jennifer is like... not good#like she sounds amd acts so fucking weird when sisko goes back into his memories with her. but then when the prophets are talking thru her#it kinda really works bc she just seems so alien. no one else the prophets are using are being like that so idk if it was intentional#but the way she looks at him is so bizarre i wanted to draw it#thus is also drawn like wayyyyy bigger than i usually draw. i draw so so tiny. but i think it looks ok mostly#ds9#deep space nine#star trek#benjamin sisko#art
