so the language of the additions on this post was very consciously influenced by my experiences living in countries with laws and cultures dominated by Islam and Buddhism, respectively.

Yes I grew up in an oppressively Christian culture, but Western Christianity is not solely or even necessarily singularly oppressive, and is certainly not the only religious structure that leverages shame in a dangerous way. And we do the world at large a disservice by acting like other major global religious institutions are harmless simply because they aren't Christian. Religious trauma comes in many forms, foreign and familiar.

not to be anti-religious but i do wonder if teaching children that they are innately flawed and sinful is, perhaps, not a healthy worldvi

#not a shitpost #when i say 'not to be anti-religious' i quite literally mean #'not to open myself up to attack for criticizing not just christianity but also other religions beyond christianity and western familiarity #... BUT'#anyways other religions aren't benign or 'exotic' or 'exciting' or 'enlightening' just because you personally #weren't raised in a society entangled and altered and grappling with their inextricable sociopolitical influence #anyways yeah the original post was christian-centric (bc that's where my firsthand religious trauma comes from)#but the additions were written very much with other major world religions in mind #westerners forget: there are actually other MAJOR world religions in existence #and by major i mean large powerful and yes potentially quite harmful. like with most major power structures #this will shock and amaze you but many MANY human beings deal with annoying ridiculous awful religious oppression....#and that religion is not always christianity! because western experiences are not universal!#if you've never heard someone raised (for instance) in an Egyptian conservative muslim family go on a RANT...#... it's educational! they have a lot to complain about!!!#ANYWAY.#just because it's not your oppression doesn't mean it's not oppression. end rant #posts I'm going to lose followers for...#no wait im not done yet: to me religion is similar to a business or government #no it's not *innately* harmful. but it IS a power structure #and therefore highly vulnerable to abuse/misuse if preventative measure aren't taken as it grows #and the fact that it's promoting specific worldviews...the very basis on which we build our understanding of the world and morality...#and that it's so wrapped up in human emotions and spiritually...that makes everything more delicate. and individuals more vulnerable.#so yeah i think religion owes a duty of care to its members to acknowledge this and actively work to protect the communities it influences.#and yeah kids especially! hence this post

Look what we've become.

[First] Prev <–-> Next

#poorly drawn mdzs #mdzs #wei wuxian #jiang cheng #Initially I wanted to do a 'Mutiny' quote to follow the 'Luck runs out' quote.#But the musical earworms demanded a different blood to be drawn. And I think it works just as well.#Alright. It's time to confess something. I really struggled with this comic. I didn't want to draw it. Then I didn't want to upload it.#Because I knew I would be here in the tags writing and backspacing for hours trying to articulate my thoughts.#I'm going to talk about death and grief in the tags today so this is your WARNING to look away if you aren't in a headspace for it.#Sometimes in media there are scenes and characters which land on topics so specific to your wounds that it reopens them all over again.#Because here's the truth. When you've known someone like this for nearly your whole life...it doesn't matter how bad the fight is.#You always think 'We'll always have time. One day this dust will settle and we'll rebuild the bridge.'#And then the fucker dies!!! He dies and suddenly there will never ever be time to repair the rift.#Someone you loved died thinking you hated them. And part of you did just a bit. But love and hate aren't mutually exclusive.#He's fucking dead and you are left with so many broken and unfinished pieces between the two of you.#Jiang Cheng loses Wei Wuxian thinking that WWX thought they hated each other.#He's a younger brother who will one day be older than the person he lost.#Who has no one else in the world who understands those feelings of love and hate and grief.#I can't be normal about this character. I don't think he even heals me. Zero catharsis to be gained here.#I just look at his sour grape ass and think 'shit that's a little too close to home.' JC is my discomfort character.#I'm probably going to regret being this vulnerable in the tags in like. An hour. So. sorry if you see this once and never again.#EDIT: Yeah sorry this took 4 hours to muster the courage to post. Surprise update!#EDIT 2: You guys were being too nice to me on my sad comic to point out the spelling error. I have fixed it now B'*)

#check out those EARS #sentret #bald #my real question is. why #well i have a lot of questions #what is this thing. why does it have wings. why is it shaped like that. why is it only cute from this angle. why does it evolve into #You-Know-Who of all pokémon #like how does furret lose the wings and the bunny ears and the shape and #how does it go from this egg-shaped flying squirrel to like #a ferret. that's what i don't understand #anyway you know who's next #i have no clue how i'm gonna follow up the original legendary furret post but #um. i'll try

JJK Characters/Relationships as Traffic

Gojo Satoru: "One More Lane"

The belief that expansion is the solution instead of fixing the base problem. Later to be removed once its no longer seen as useful and hardly missed

Geto Suguru: Separated Bike Lane

Separated from Jujutsu car society, trying to make a better way.

Kenjaku: Highway bike lane

Pretends to be safe, familiar, but is here to cause death

Gojo Satoru & Geto Suguru & Shoko Ieri: Diverging Diamond Intersection

Crossing paths (KFC) and crossing paths again (JJK0) with a third caught in the middle but not being able to really change anything during the main conflict, literally being passed over. Note how the top two roads also have medians between them. Yeah...

Nanami Kento: Yamanote Line

Normally I try to keep it to road types but I'm counting this since it's a public transportation (and also I love this line). The Yamanote Line is a train line in central Tokyo (here's a cool video that includes a bit about it) that functions in a very practical loop. In subway maps it's always drawn as a perfect circle which I think hearkens to Nanami's 5:30 quirk and watch fairly well. It also has a stop at Shibuya

Haibara Yuu: Dead End

:]

Nanami & Haibara: Cul-de-sac

A dressed up dead end. Driven down while looking at so much life but in the end, to go forward you have to turn around.

Yuuji Itadori: Standard road

Straight forward. Might have a few potholes but it's a classic and reliable

Megumi Fushiguro: Street Renovation

Frustrating. Can feel like everything is being stopped or diverted. Sometimes you just ask yourself if it's better to end it all and start over. But if you let people take the time and care to help, it can be fixed and it'll be better in the end, even if it takes time.

Nobara Kugasaki: Country bus stop

Trying to get away from where you are but stuck in limbo for quite a while. Might miss a lot of things but if you're lucky you'll get there in time. Dreams of big city living

Yuuji & Megumi & Nobara: Carpet

Childish. They're only 16 did you know?

Yuuta Okkutsu + Rika: Tram

Cute. Classy. Lovely. A main car that's supported and guided externally. Pieces that require the other.

Sukuna Ryomen: Displaced Left Turn

Look at it. Does it bring you distress? Does it look like it could kill a lot of people? Yeah? Fuck you

Sukuna & Jogo: Crash at Crush

A planned publicity stunt in 1896. What was supposed to be a controlled crash between two trains unexpectedly caused their engines to explode causing deaths, injuries, and a lot of damage.

Hello! I just discovered your blog and I immediately became captivated by your webcomic, but I'm unsure where to read all of it. I know it's on Webtoons, but I can see it hasn't been updated for a while, and you still post about it.

Are your physical novels just prints of the webcomic? Are they a continuation? Is the story complete? Thanks in advance!

Hi there!

Glad you found me and are enjoying my comic!

It's only on webtoons, and the story is not complete yet! We're 2/3 of the way through right now. It's currently on hiatus, and it's scheduled to come back in about 2 months!

I'll explain why it's been so long if you're curious, but also for my followers who might also be wondering about it under the cut. Sorry, it's pretty much just me complaining haha

I took a month off I took 2 months to get the books printed I took a month to prepare my next comic and I took 2 months to write the rest of the series (I knew the character arcs I wanted, but not the time periods or mysteries!!!) I've been working on actual episodes since then

I had to take some time off because of some pretty extreme burnout due to the sheer amount of work it was to draw over 800 pages and write 6 complete stories in a year and a half... I was getting sick almost weekly due to the overwork, it was really really bad honestly. I was having to work 60+ hours every week just to keep up...

The nature of the comic itself is also difficult... Each of the arcs is a complete, self contained story which can be read (ideally) without context, and my arcs need to be about 10-13 episodes each... And since I have an exact number of episodes to work with, it's even harder.

It takes a ton of planning and a ton of refinement, and working week to week with no breaks I was forced to put out second or even first drafts, so I just wasn't happy with the work I was doing... And to do that for the rest of the series? I wouldn't be proud of the work I did.

Plus... To be entirely honest, webtoon has treated me quite badly IN MY OPINION... They deprioritized me before I launched (I had to beg for more promotion, I'm not exaggerating), they outright denied me the opportunity to even ask for a raise, I don't make any money on fast pass and they pay me less than my partner makes working at trader joes. My first editor left me completely hanging, my second editor (who I loved) was fired... And they told me I wouldn't get a third season before my first season even finished. So it was just repeatedly completely demoralizing.

I'm sorry it has taken so long, it'll have been 10 months by the time I come back. But I realized... I won't get promotion either way. I won't get more episodes either way. I won't get more money either way. So to finish everything, to make it feel good, to make it something I'm proud of, I chose to take longer to make it better.

I am fully aware I will lose a significant amount of my readership for this and it might genuinely affect my career moving forward. But it's what I had to do! So I'm sticking to my guns on it, and I'm confident long term it'll be worth it. It never could have been this good if I didn't take this much time.

#asks #steakandpeanutbuttersandwiches #I'm SO sorry youre new and you asked me such a benign question and I responded with... this... LMAO #I swear to god I tried to make it as short as possible #theres just a lot auauuaghkhgjk #basically. way too much work. not enough money.#so it either is gonna be good and take longer or be worse but come back faster #and I chose to take longer #so.#I'm really sorry and I wish that this decision didn't also come with the... pretty much guarantee that it will negatively impact my career.#I will lose readers. I will lose potential readers for my future work. it looks bad on me as a creator to take such a big break. etc. etc.#but it's good. it's so good. you have to trust me it's like the best stuff Ive ever written #it. ok well to be honest #it'll probably feel extremely simple and extremely natural #but it's been SO much work LMAO #I am not exaggerating I have written over 200 pages of scapped ideas to get to where it is #I'm sure it won't make sense why it took so long while reading but you gotta trust me LMAO #ideally it doesnt even 'feel' different right. cause its gotta be cohesive with the whole thing #but there is SO MUCH TO WRAP UP #THERES SO MUCH #and to make that feel natural in this little space oh my GOD it is so hard #ok omfg I'm doing it again I'm going on way too long again IM SO SORRY #YOURE NEW HERE AND IM DOING THIS IMMEDIATELy #this is like 90% for my followers who I know are curious about this and I'm just using you as a jumping off point to talk about it #cause I don't really like to make standalone posts very often #I likely will make some kind of official announcement about it when the date is extremely set in stone #right now I think it's still only tentatively scheduled so it could still change #and I'll say something more... refined and restrained... then.#but for now this is like. actually everything. I think #I'm sure I forgot something but whatever lmfao

I have so many wips and ofc, I now want to write the first time Athena talks to lil Penelope.

11-12 year old Penelope: "I know you've been watching me."

Athena: "Oh really?"

Penelope: "Well, at least I'm pretty sure. Ever since I did [something I'll come up with later]"

Athena, amused: "Oh? And how do you know that? Maybe I've only know you until right now."

Penelope: "Owls don't hoot midday, My Lady. They also don't do it every time I do certain things."

Athena: "Ah... You are observant, my dear."

#Penelope was planning to be a follower/priestess of Athena before she got married. :) but Athena wasn't too offended ofc #If I hear one fucking word about how Athena didn't do like Penelope. I'm going to lose my shit. Make your own post if you must #Mad rambles #shot by odysseus #my headcanons #Water Wife #penelope of ithaca

Wish the party loyalist "stop making Harris look bad bc Trump" people would realize that a) denying reality is exactly what the right does and b) it is on the candidate to win votes by not being a genocide enabling sellout moderate getting endorsed by the fucking Cheneys for her hawkishness on foreign policy while promising little for people at home, not on the voter disillusioned by said issues that the candidate could rectify

#i say i'm done but seeing another one of those posts will make me roll my eyes hard again #this has been going on since 2016 and it's wild how much narrower the overton window has gotten to push these neoliberals #trump is shit but his being shit does not absolve blue team of the shit and blood on their hands #people really need to demand more for their votes #when they lose GA and NC bc of reneging on those $2K checks or saying no to giving Helene victims more aid #[and likely FL too if they follow suit with Milton swinginess aside]#the same people will likely rage at the people left to their rubble for not voting harder #like i'm sure they have at the muslims so rightly outraged at our support for the 🇵🇸 genocide that they refuse to vote for either party #meanwhile i get an email from work saying we have more payroll deductions this next year for our healthcare plans and there's been no talk #of M4A or even some mealy-mouthed means-tested version of it to win votes #and ofc there's student loans starting back up and their burning even more youth votes they were already losing with Gaza #let alone record homelessness... a housing crisis... lead/chemical poisonings... and so on #'we can push her left' they say knowing she takes money from people opposed to her going left on any policies--#and that they're going to brunch anyway #'fascism 2 is coming' *points at Dem-admin/Dem-mayor cop cities* *points at IG accounts being censored bc of being pro-Palestine* been here #anyway pre bed vent over 😴

Mfs will treat ONE post from the official Teletubbies Twitter account about the Teletubbies being siblings as the word of God, and base their entire argument on it. And then they'll proceed to harass you when you prove them wrong. Sorry babes but a single post isn't gonna stop me. Imma continue to make slendytubbies fanart of Laa and Dipsy kissin.

#slendytubbies #sorry not even remotely sorry #🫶#the only reason I'm bringing this up again is because I saw the post of Dog or whatever that person's user was redrawing a Po x Tinky #picture and claiming that they “made it better”.#bitch you didn't make shit better you just disrespected an artist just because you headcanon the teletubbies as siblings #I know I might lose followers over this or whatever but honestly idgaf #one single post that was about the REBOOT and not the ORIGINAL SHOW is not going to stop me from shipping the characters #when they literally kiss in the show. “but Jasper!!!!! people from other cultures kiss their siblings!” I'm aware of that and I've BEEN #aware of that. but no sibling gets up in the others face like Laa and Dipsy do #if the Teletubbies are really siblings then Teletubbies HQ is fucking weird for having that in the show.

I'll never get over the fact that MK trades his friends for power to save his friends. What's wrong with him

#I love you 3x03.#Good characterization/themeing ep/setting up MK's abilities/general power scaling #Truly MK is out here willing to sacrifice Mei's Sword and the deed to Pigsy's noodles.

Nothing'' -> Azure sacrificing himself to repair the world #''You offer something of value to gain something of value''#''Take me- I don't care! Just let them go.'' (3x04)#Macaque saying to start the ritual for Mei's life #''You're so desperate to end me that you would sacrifice this blameless innocent child?'' ''You're leaving me no choice!''#''You would really sacrifice your own friend to save yourself?''#''We can't risk unleashing the curse into the world!''

Hey everything is getting so crazy and infuriating so I'm making a lot of posts about gentile antisemitism and I just wanted to say that to my like 5 or 6 gentile followers who actually reblog this stuff despite the inevitable backlash and ostracization that comes with being associated with Jews nowadays, I see it and I really really really REALLY appreciate it. Beyond what I can really articulate.

#Sorry this is dramatic but I'm emotional #Seeing literal honest to god porgroms getting justified in the mainstream narrative or just politely ignored #I think it's becoming clearer and clearer why there were so few righteous among nations during the Holocaust #And it's becoming clear who's actually willing to stick to their principles and stick their necks out about it when it means actually #Going against the social approval of one's peers #Sometimes I wonder why I still have so many followers after I shifted from a Fandom blog to 100% only talking about antisemitism #Bc I would have expected to lose most of my followers. Esp because it's not like anything I post or reblog gets almost any interaction #From my gentile followers. It's just jews and those 5 or 6 gentiles.#Yet I haven't lost thousands of followers. I've actually gained. And anything I reblog that's NOT about antisemitism gets like 30 notes imm #From random people who haven't interacted with anything else in a year. And I'm like.?? Why are you guys still here?#Don't you see that all I post about anymore is antisemitism? If you're not gonna care why not unfollow or block me?#I try to think maybe it's because some people want to hear about this and actually do see what's happening and the crazy antisemitism that'#Become normal. But they're scared of getting ostracized so they don't reblog but also dont unfollow. They never interact they just lurk #Maybe? I can hope. But either way. Those people if they exist when it comes down to it aren't willing to actually stick their necks out #So for the handful of gentiles that are. Yeah I definitely notice. Thank you.

Also I quit my job of what would in about a month or two have been 10 years, and perhaps now I will get to actually be a human being again.

#honestly? honestly?#last week i told the two (2) godawful egomaniac lab head Man In Academia bosses i quit and that we need to formalise it asap and i just #felt like a little feather about to float away on a breeze #maybe now i can do normal people things like eat and sleep and have a routine of some sort idk #i have been slowly losing it for at least 3-4 years now #i took a screenshot and last year i had no fewer than 14 fucking travel orders fulfilled #most of which consisted of like 12+ hour days on ships and docks #i'm just so tired man #not for reblogging obviously #i don't really wanna vent anymore or ponder them and the entire godforsaken institution but like #good riddance tbh #which is really really sad when you think about it! but here we are #it was just... no trace of future anywhere to be seen! entirely a Void!!#gonna post a beefy lesbian paladin real quick to push this post down lmao #but i felt like sharing because i know there's good and concerned people who follow me here and i both appreciate and miss you all #and lord knows some of you have been listening to me vent and whine for ages #am i going to miss some great people and the research community of my field? of course but also it was all just completely unsustainable

you can always tell the people who give social media advice who are naturally or conventionally attractive even without even having to look at a photo of them cause they're always the ones that recommend showing your face in reels or videos to promote your art and it's like,,, talk about pretty/skinny privilege lol

#it's one of those days folks #brb going on an extreme diet (jk but not really)#okay but really. all jokes aside Even if I WAS thin or lost a bunch of weight...#I'm still just fundamentally unattractive enough that I think i would lose insta followers if I showed my face in reels or posts 🥲#idk I know it's better for the algorithm but eh. i don't want to subject my subscribers to having to look at me lol #and I would wear makeup but I'm so bad at putting it on that I look worse with it on 😭😂#If i was good at make up i legit wouldn't leave the house without it #that said. i do have decent skin health 🤔 I get like. less than 1 pimple a year IF that. So that's something to be grateful for i suppose #but if a genie offered me a chance to be pretty for ONE day but in exchange I had to give up ALL my talents. interests. personality. etc #and i could never get those aspects of myself back for the rest of my life...#I would 100% take up that opportunity LOL 👍#anyway feel free to ignore me I'm not looking for compliments (I don't think anyone on here even knows what i look like?)#(which is by design lol and trust me. be grateful you don't have to look at my face haha)#I'm just venting into the void bc a mutual on insta did a reel where she showed her face and I was like #*shocked pikachu face* oh she's pretty #oh. oh so THAT's why i never should show my face. I'm pretty toad-like in comparison 😂

why do so few people Get utena as a character. they either mostly ignore her faults to give her ones she doesn't actually have (ie calling her stupid, but otherwise claiming she's perfect) or wildly exaggerate them without trying to understand why they're there

#if i have to hear one more person saying she doesn't care about her friends OR that she never ever hurt them i'm going to lose it #people are all about the complexities this show's characters have until it comes to its PROTAGONIST and suddenly there's no nuance at all #this is kind of a pointless post because i'm sure the people who follow me are the ones who do get it. but man.#m
