Heya, @cjhern1109 I'm sorry I'm really late on this but I was your Secret Santa this time. I decided to cut this down way shorter near the end because I thought it was better that way but I'll post the extended version in the next couple of days.

I hope you enjoy it.

Thank you to @venelona for hosting the Secret Santa!

I can't go five minutes in DW fandom without people being just atrociously mean about things that I love with the blissful unawareness of majority mainstream opinion holders that the people they're being mean about are like. In the space with them. And this in a space full of ardent fans of arguably some of the most esoteric obscure side stuff that everyone else disdains or doesn't even know. And I'm having fun for the most part but also like. It's just exhausting, constantly goddamn exhausting.

Why the fuck do people expect me to be a literal fucking angel just because I like wearing colorful outfits and hair accessories and am autistic 😭😭😭😭

Ohhh man. I just finished nexo knights. Goddamn that sure was something. There’s definitely a lot of potential in this show and it’s a shame it wasn’t renewed. Expect doodles later!

Thank god for Holo Taco cremes making it possible for me to recreate Mika’s nails (OG insta post here). I spent way more time than I should have trying to figure out the pattern but I think I got it right (there are only 8 visible colours in the OG pic but I’m absolutely certain it’s a 10-colour pattern) and decided on purple and melon/salmon as the missing colours. The pink I used (High Tea Hibiscus) is photographing are much darker burgundy than it looks in person, but What Do You Pink? was too pastel/baby pink and if I'm going to be wearing this for a few days, I'd rather have a pink that's too dark than too light

thinking about how Hisoka started out not wanting any material things to help him sleep because he wanted to be able to fall asleep in any situation, even uncomfortable ones, and how Mankai gradually gifted him things to help him sleep, that he first was warry about but soon enough he started to collect

and the boy who started out with nothing in his corner of his room now has a good pillow, countless plushies, which he always considers is a perfect gift, expertise on good pillows, an eyemask for sleeping purpose, welcoming cozy blankets, and even appropriated himself the coffin in the storage room for perfect napping spot, coffin that he filled with pillows and plushies and find ways to keep locked shut so Tasuku doesn’t drag him out of it (or else he becomes evil on purpose), and now he gets to complain everytime someone slightly disturb his sleep.

He agreed on rooming with Homare because he had such a deep sleep that he would have in theory not been bothered by his loud behavior, and instead he grew more and more irritated with it the more people taught him about cocooning because now his sleep is sacred.

And the lonely “nothing allowed to sleep” rhetoric, was traded with “gotta be hugging something no matter what” which led him to have nap and cuddle buddies like Azuma.

And i think it’s really just a peak character arc, to be someone who denied himself all sort of little comfort to not get used to it, to then become an hedonist plushy bot constantly seeking comfort he’s now allowed and expected to have. As he deserves.

i am not going to derail the original post but OP and I favour very different interpretations of Can’t Help Myself, that art installation of a robot arm shoveling a red liquid back towards itself that went viral a while back.

On tumblr at least, the popular interpretation is the one by instagram user kricked, who in this post talked about his sympathy for the robot arm and the way in which it was worked to death and all that jazz.

It’s a neat idea I guess, but personally I strongly prefer the Guggenheim museum’s view, which is that this piece is more about border surveillance and state violence. The artists themselves have not weighed in—sensible, given that they live and work in Beijing—but given that the exhibition it was commissioned for (again, the Guggenheim museum) was explicitly about geography, nation states, and China, I’m inclined to say this interpretation is probably closer to the artist’s original intent than the instagram one.

So it was really funny and kind of jarring to read a post where someone contrasts it against the boston dynamics dogs as like. Finding humanity in a harmless machine, because to me, they’re the same thing. The arm and dogs are (metaphorically and literally, respectively) tools of the state used for violent suppression that have been reinterpreted as something cute and relatable by white people online.

This isn’t like a callout for the OP or even a criticism of their post, I just found this mismatch in perception funny and wanted to talk about it.

Sorry about more ooc posting again, hhhh--

but i've had like no focus since i woke up earlier today??? like, i've tried to think about replies i wanna do, but it's either been crickets-- or so disjointed in focus that i dare not even try to patch it up enough to try and write with--

plus i brain has kinda been doing me a stupid by feeling like i'm not "doing well enough" with another one of my blogs... even though i keep trying to reason with myself that this muse is still new, so everything is gonna be fine--

and i also kinda didn't do myself any added favors by watching a pretty fucked up video just a bit ago... so like-- i feel like a damn hot mess rn lmao-- and i think rather than trying to pester myself into doing something that hasn't been working-- i'm just gonna go eat something, and then probably game for a little while... see if maybe doing something else might help XP
