Fics where people force garbage “sleep hygiene” techniques on their insomniac friends my nemesis.
#like half the sleep advice I was so EMPHATICALLY given by my various doctors have now been contradicted by new studies#and most of the other half are contradicted by my life experiences#THE FICS ARE OBJECTIVELY FINE I JUST DON’T WANT TO SEE THEM#as with all fantasies where someone forces you to take care of yourself they are not 1:1 examples of how a caring friend should behave in#real life and that’s FINE

if you ask me. being a good storyteller and love are inherently entwined. you cannot tell a good story without loving the people in it and loving those you tell it to. because to tell a good story is to understand it and its impact. to love is to understand how something moves through others and how to deliver it the way it would be best received. and how to breath life into something that did not exist before. storytelling is an act of creation sure but i do believe in all creation, there is love too. that there must be
#this is also sort of how i see/think about god#that if god isnt real. well then thats fine#god is the meaning we give to life. because as human beings we give things meaning. simply because we are humans and thats what we've alway#done. that could be god to me#but the other thing that could be 'god' is the idea that everything here is made with intention#not with the intent to control the outcome of the universe or the people within it but#with the intention to make something. and i do think that creation intention and love are inherently intertwined#txt#scratchpost

forgot to post this the other day but i gave myself a little nameless ghoul :3
#ramble#the band ghost#ghost bc#tattoo apprentice things#couldn't pull a line to save my life that day#i had to do SO much fixing#i'm going to say it was just a really awkward placement to do on yourself bc it's right under the knee when you cross your legs#the line weight and the shading saved it and the more i look at it the less i hate it#like if you're not LOOKING for imperfections it's fine. and considering it's the 3rd one i've done on real skin#and it's a lot bigger than the others. it's FINE#i know if i got this from someone else i would NOT think 'this is a terrible tattoo'#it's not perfect but it's not bad#my mentor has said i'm being too hard on myself and she's right akdhdhfh#i might go back once it's healed and even out the thick outlines but right now it doesn't need fixing at all

"Are the Robins child soldiers" It depends. If the story is super serious and into exploring complex morality and grounded from reality's standards, then yes. If the story is lighthearted, made for children, fluff, etc., then no. If it's somewhere in the middle, it might depend.
If an author wants to write a story seriously delving into the fucked up-ness of children fighting criminals, they can, and if you don't like it, you can read something else.
If an author wants to write a fun story about villains and heroes featuring Robin in a world where that's not an issue, they can, and if you don't like it, you can read something else.
If an author wants to write a serious story but not apply IRL-logic to Robin, they can, and if you don't like it, you can read something else.
#my dc posting#dc#batman#robin#bruce wayne#jason todd#dick grayson#tim drake#damian wayne#idk if i articulate it perfectly here but like... yall#yall.#when im watching lego: batman im not thinking of how horrific and irresponsible it is to take dick on the mission#like it is a movie for children i am there to have fun. in that moment i don't careee#but if i'm reading a fic that's dwelving deep into like jason todd's psyche and taking itself seriously w real-life accurate#psychology stuff then yeah i'm fine with also exploring how directly interfering with violent crime at such a young age might#actually affect a person's development#but like sometimes it's not that deep and robin's out there solving murders and kicking two-face's ass n havin fun doin it#just. there is nuance depending on the story being told#sometimes i'm in the mood for serious exploration of bruce's failings as a parent. sometimes i wanna read him bonding with his kids and#everything is fine.#you can have both!!!

Ranchers as Grant Wood’s American Gothic was supposed to be sillay and goofy but then I set the ranch on fire and one thing led to another and now it’s. sad DFBJDFGB I’m really happy with how this came out though, so!! Here’s my week 3 piece for the Hermitcraft Design Challenge thingie :]
#team rancher#tangotek#jimmy solidarity#solidarity gaming#SolidarityGaming#tango#double life smp#shepshermitdesign23#art escapades#tried something different and tried to be really loose with my painting in this :]#regarding the original—#ppl apparently saw the painting as an out of touch rural painting in a modern world#whereas wood intended to paint it as a positive portrayal of ideal rural living#so.#at some point the ranchers became m-1 ranchers and then this piece became a complicated commentary -#about everyone else seeing the ranchers as out of touch / removed from reality and the real world since their relationship was confined to -#double life#meanwhile ranchers themselves are happy with each other and see their relationship (despite the context/ the games) as an ideal one#m-1#anyway I’m fine thanks for asking#back to botwcast DGBJDFGB

idk what we’re all calling the concept of fiddlestan working together but i’m calling my version the portal partners AU 🙏🏼



#gave it a name bc i was kinda tired of calling it the Fidds and Stan Work Together on the Portal AU#it’s called portal partners bc they’re partners in fixing the portal partners in running the shack AND partners in life#ik i’m not the only one to think of an au where they start working together after ford goes missing#but i don’t see a lot of people really showing the older version of them ? i don’t think ?#like i’ve seen canon older fiddlestan but not older fiddlestan after working together for 30 years ? idk#also figured fidds would look different in a world where he doesn’t lose his mind in his 30s#🤷🏻♂️#gay old men#yay#stan looks and acts the same btw he just happens to also have a very longterm bf to be gay with#gravity falls took place before gay marriage was legal (jesus christ that’s crazy to think about) so that’s why i say very longterm bf#(this means ford would be back in time to attend their wedding tho so. best man ford real. fidd & ford may be sort-of-exes but it’s fine)#gravity falls#gravity falls au#fiddlestan#also… petition to start calling fiddlestan fiddley#bc fiddle(ford) + (stan)ley …. fiddley… u see the vision????#fiddley#🙂↕️🙏🏼#stanley pines#fiddleford mcgucket#gravity falls fanart#idk man i’m gonna tag the au too ig#portal partners au#gravity falls portal partners au#???#my art#(i guess? used a fidds base then redrew it with my changes so idk)#rystiart#sorry if someone’s done smthn similar bc i feel like this idea of them working together is pretty popular maybe 😭

The gang is playing Overcooked 2
The speech might be hard to read in the correct order, so I numbered them!
I was having a reeeaaally hard time deciding whether I should post shadowpeach as my first post, but...
I thought, naaaah that can wait ( ≖⩊≖ )
BONUS:

#this was originally going to be a short comic abt Pigsy finding them playing and taunting them about#“practicing their culinary skills in real life” ergo a nicer way to say “STOP SLACKING OFF”#maybe one day I'll draw that too :]#monkie kid#lego monkie kid#lmk qi xiaotian#lmk long xiaojiao#lmk tang#lmk sandy#lmk mo#lmk red son#overcooked#monkie kid comic#not so much a comic but it has speech so i suppose its fine to tag it as such#lmk mk#lmk mei#first post#fanart by me#qi xiaotian#long xiaojiao#monkie kid qi xiaotian#monkie kid fanart#lmk fandom

youtube has SO much nerve doing their little "don't use an adblocker pleaseeee we want your money so bad you're so mean :(" you LITERALLY let people get doxxed on your website and this is the torch you're burning
#everyone's already bitched about it but I'm bitching#yes I know the workaround. I'm just fine#but the increasing entitlement to increasing sums of money makes me want to kill real life people#sergle.txt

fic is a safe space, probably one of the last safe spaces. by safe i mean safe from the pressure of caving to advertisers. you can write fic about anything and not worry (shouldn’t worry) about what’s popular or what an advertiser oriented algorithm will pick up. what i mean by this is that you don’t have to bring this advertiser friendly behavior into fic. heroes can make bad decisions, people can fall out of love, villains can win, villainous organizations can win, redemption doesn’t have to happen, etc. make things a little messy if you want to, because life can be messy and art is a reflection of life. not what the advertisers have decided for us life is like, real life. this is one of the last places where this is still possible
#this post is brought to you by everyone who keeps saying lucanis will reform the crows??#first of all that’s a fundamental misunderstanding of his character#he LIKES the crows and likes his job a lot#and i do say this while believing and writing him leaving the crows at the end#but he would not reform them#and the fact that so many people in the fandom are trying to make that happen feels to me like they can’t like him without this#justification this need to redeem him as a character#like he is an assassin lol he enjoyed killing before any of this#just be ok with that?? or maybe you just don’t like him then?? which is fine!#im tired of everything being so clean all the time#life isn’t clean! art reflects life!! not what the advertisers have decided life is! real life!#anyway!#im so fucking tired lol

replaying the clip of Cleo saying "etho doesn't take himself seriously at all, but he takes other people seriously. That's part of his charm" over and over again in my head. It's so clarifying to me
#zombiecleo#etho#ethoslab#hermitcraft#okay fine if you wanna be real im making tbis about etho as a life series character#playing face up cards on the table open and honest to cleo because he takes her seriously when she talks about loyalty#grian said he needed friends and etho said welcome home grian#bdubs seems like the fly in the ointment of the statement but when bdubs is talking about buildings and stairs etho takes him seriously#he cant take bdubs seriously when he talks about loyalty and defending him from the washed up allegations#because its about him its about etho it cant be sincere not really#anyway#just character thoughts

I think a lot about Leo’s tendency to push his way into the spotlight despite clearly being a natural in the shadows. Hell, you could argue that his worst moments are when he’s forcing himself onstage, and his best are when he does things no one notices until it’s already been done.
#rottmnt#rise of the teenage mutant ninja turtles#rottmnt leo#rottmnt headcanons#rise leo#His aptitude with subterfuge sleight of hand stealth and speed really push how being a ninja really comes naturally to him.#it’s arguable that his desperation for the spotlight and validation is an act of subterfuge against himself#note that when he’s offered a job as a mascot he’s fine being unknown#when he and splinter win the battle nexus Leo immediately says ‘they love YOU pops’#idk I think so much about how good a ninja Leo is#and how much his persona is more an actor#Leo as a tot is shown a natural skill at katana too so hear me out-#every Leo is a natural ninja but every Leo’s route in life is directly tied to their splinter so#since rise splinter is an actor Leo too aims for it#and he brings it into his whole life - masking always because a Leo makes what they do who they are#I think that Leo naturally falls more in line with that of a typical ninja#his eccentric performer self is his subterfuge skill just set to an 11 at all times#not that that’s NOT him - like I said it’s still undoubtedly a part of Leo#but? idk I think about little moments like Leo being the only one to choose stealth in bug busters#or Leo being the only one to almost get Gus’s dog tags in The Ninja Art of Hide and Seek (he was so close but luck was against him alas)#like- he’s clearly in his element there and he falls into those skills so easily#it’s like how everyone has skills in so many things but some exceed more in some than others do#like Raph? Raph’s the biggest Hero of the bunch of them let’s be perfectly real here. Raph is THE Hero#All the boys are smart in their own rights but Donnie is THE Genius.#and they all have mystic powers but Mikey is THE Mystic Warrior with immense untapped potential#likewise Leo I feel is THE Ninja#but yeah I love how much Leo goes for the spotlight anyway for better or for worse#he IS a performer again make no mistake! but again the way he does it still lines up with his natural ninja aptitude and I love it#Leo loving magic tricks and magicians so much works doubly well here because like#you’d think he’s focused solely on the performance flair - no it’s ALSO and ESPECIALLY the DECEPTION
