#so the results are in 😔

The 2023 Australian Referendum results are in, and the answer is No. It should've been Yes. We need to do better, try again, and give a rightful Voice in parliament to Indigenous Australians.
[...] Australia voted No, and did so conclusively. It was clear, 75 minutes into the counting, the referendum had failed. [...] It was a brutal end to a brutal campaign that exposed the deep societal rifts in Australia. It's also undeniable the campaign was bogged down with misinformation and allegations of racism, and that the result will leave a scar.
"It's very clear that reconciliation is dead. A majority of Australians have said No to an invitation from Indigenous Australia with a minimal proposition to give us a bare say in matters that affect our lives, advice that doesn't need to be taken by the parliament."
[...] The Voice did not divide people based on heritage or when they came to this country. It was an advisory body, with no special powers. It would've taken information and advice from local communities and presented it to parliament on issues relating to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders.
[...] overwhelmingly, in the booths were there were large indigenous populations, the answer was Yes. The defeat will be seen by Indigenous Advocates as a blow to what has been a hard-fought struggle to progress reconciliation and recognition in modern Australia, while First Nations people continue to suffer discrimination, poorer health, and worse economic outcomes.
"We had two choices tonight: write another chapter in the history of reconciliation in this country, or fail a significant empathy test. And Australia, we failed that test."
[...] The referendum failed because enough people allowed themselves to believe the worst.
The way forward is unclear. There will be a time of reflection and of reckoning for all sides. But what we do know is that it does not rest on Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people to keep carrying the load. It is up to all of us, Yes or No, to reckon with our past in a clear-eyed way. And that work has to start now.

Any teacher? Maybe Vagas is somekind of orc
I had ideas for a few of the staff already and rambled in tags but I forgot where. Did not forget the ideas though ! I'm using this au to love some of the characters more tbh and Vargas' design is so underwhelming to me in the game :') I feel like I can appreciate him a bit more if I draw him like that idea I had in mind, big bowser like creature from legends of southern France (but centaurified in this case) dw he's never cold he's too strong to be cold yeye Vamp trein was so obvious to me, look at this gentleman, very sophisticated, excellent poise. Ugh these youngsters making bloody messes nowadays, refinement is dead... Ah lucius his beloved batcat he does understand at least... (maybe) Sleep paralysis Crowley, I saw a close up of his eyes once and never recovered it's kinda terrifying so yeah.... He yaps the night away while you can only listen in horror, unable to move. Choosing for Crewel is still hard because he slays in every option... 😔 keeping both outfits for him whatever will be the last decision honestly. If he's a hunter he's independent from the church, self made hunter. If vampire will be so fucking annoying with Trein (assuming they share a mansion alongside Sebek and Riddle.) And finally Cocatrix Sam because that's a cool creature, snake rooster !! He can lay down in a regular bed, unlike Vil. I can see him hanging out w/ Azul from time to time, magic shenanigans and stuff (I was this close to make another water based creature (mélusine, non pas la sorcière rousse))



#Twst#croissant de lune#I like to think that when sam combs his hair or styles it in other ways the snake heads just divide or combine depending on the end result#Man I love giving long hair to almost everyone#not too much of a short beard appreciator so drawing a full on mane for vargas is a good compromise to me#Also tried to look how rooster wings looked like fom each side but idk maybe google images isnt the best to find that#I typed “coq ailes” and uh...😔pics of local brand of food..... it's like when you type shrimp and they show them cooked on every pic

🐛 (Caterpillar) - What are your OC’s greatest fears, and why? How do they act or react when they’re afraid?
For starstruck

her fears and tears certainly drown out her comforts. requested fear response loading in 3, 2, 1....
<< prev || [masterpost] || next >>
#my art#my comics#asks#starstruck dee#galacta knight#and maybe.....#???#be a mighty good time to wake yourself up starstruck!! consider waking up! strongly recommending it right about now!#gravitational collapse#🎀🔍#<- i mean.... is there any point tagging it that at this point LMAO 😂💦 obviously something's happening here#no poll for this one because i had to break it up actually so the prior poll results will actually be in the next update#though i will say it doesn't make a great difference anyway. only one way this ends from here 😔#also this was not technically a tourney ask but i'm using it coz it worked well here!! i didn't have one that suited more!

FINALLY POSTING THIS STUPID YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
he's an imp who got fused with a subspace tripmine and now basically works like one and harvests souls to eat them to feed himself he's an exploiter who mostly annoys people in classic games (his favourite one being SFOTH), playing casual at first but then pulling subspace mines and other nefarious tricks at people
#roblox#oc:subtrip#my ocs#my art#yes another boblos oc call me cringe all you want.....................💪💪💪😔#he has a bunch of other complicated lore which i will dump here WARNING SPOILERS AHEAD FOR MY BROTHER SPOILERS SPOILERS DONT READ#he was once a normal robloxian who mostly played SFOTH; that being his favourite game#until at some point he was struck with the fact that he was quite a noob and there were people constantly targetting him for it#he wanted revenge on this one guy who he thought was an exploiter (but *probably* wasnt) that kept pestering him everywhere#at one point he got so miserable he transcended and somewhat managed to end up with the mindscape team#doing so he made a deal with them kinda like willow did#in exchange for his outer layer soul properties and a kidney he would be able to be more powerful#so then his soul (core) got hardened and he got fused with a subspace tripmine#resulting in looking like. this#he's able to turn invisible and also temporarily hop in other dimensions#or go in another dimension but at a cost of a large cooldown#he's so annoying i HATE HIM

#i made this months ago and it was sitting in my drafts#i thought it was a compilation of frannie + kowalski commiting to the bit and being siblings#(and that was the point judging by the fact i only included clips from s3/4)#but the final result is actually so much better#(also i don’t get the pirate stuff either 😔🤙)#due south

💭 🛌🏻
#2 years ago someone sent me an anonymous message saying The Savage Detectives was boring and then a few others about The Tunnel#and now my beloved LA CIUDAD Y LOS PERROS (The Time of the Hero) !!! you people don't deserve latin american literature 😭#btw it's bc they get them as results in the quizzes i make at the end of the year‚ and i appreciate that they read my recs‚#but damn it breaks my heart and I immediately assume* that those readers have reduced their reading experience to tropes and idk#something that gives them instant pleasure and that doesn't really challenges them#bc they are already accustomed to never leaving that comfort zone#* i assume this stuff bc i'm bitter lol my bad. obviously there are plenty of reasons why they didn't like those books and that's okayyyy#but seriously i wish i had written the time of the hero. it's so sickeningly good. maybe the sauce is in the language#maybe you just have to be able to speak the most gorgeous language in the world—spanish but not from spain‚ yes shade—to truly get it#so yeaa idk i won't reply to that ask just like i didn't reply to the one about The Savage Detectives#unless the person who sent it gives me a good argument 🤨#i keep thinking they messed up the translation bc the title lol let's start there. it should be a literal translation; The City and the Dog#but yea who knows#and about the savage detectives i will always be mad about that ask bc you don't understand the ways i fw Roberto Bolaño#he's THE chilean writer to me#and like a true chilean he loved mexico 🙂↕️#so The Savage Detectives is so special 🥹 as the cheese people say it's a 'love letter' to mexico lol#anywayy sorry for being annoying 😔#Dogs*

god i fucking love competitive play, i love watching high level, skilled gameplay from passionate players, i love learning the statistics for each player and the game as a whole, i love hearing everyone and especially the casters glaze the fuck out of my favorite players. mc summit/mojang and mc.c you will be fucking dealt with .
#guess who stayed up all night rewatching their favorite players performances from several years of owc (osu world cup) ^_^#rewatching owc makes me mad about mc.c rules again 💀💀that fucking ace race call pisses me off to this day#like owc isnt perfect and did only put a rule in place After something happened#but LIKE AT LEAST THEY DID SOMETHING AFTER THE FACT#i dont remember all the details but it was about a player dcing/disconnecting in the middle of the match#i think that player did get technically fucked over at the time bc they ruled to not restart?#and put a rule in place After that if a player dcs within the first x amount of seconds in a map then they restart–tho idk when he dced#but imo thats the right call to make anyways–not restarting bc of dcs#yeah sure if the game just started BUT AFTER THE FUCKING GAME IS OVER??#AND EVEN THOUGH YOU NOTICED PEOPLE DCING THROUGHOUT THE MAP BEFORE IT ENDED? actual fucking brain dead call#karls annoys the fuck out of me now but he was based for saying that waiting to restart the game until after people won–#just seemed like they were waiting to see the results before making the call#like for owc now its like yeah your game froze in the middle of a map or you dced#tough shit and they can complain and rage over it but they know to move the fuck on#anyways elimination match today w nrg vs lev...#if nrg let me down (which is. very likely as always) at least i have owc to rewatch ^_^#i would rewatch more of dreams wins but alas so many people in his teams piss me off now so 💀#oh dream mc esports what you couldve been 🕊️#also so sad that my favorite player in osu has disappeared bc he has like a job and all that overrated stuff 😔#osu does show activity though so my only crumbs are when hes played recently rip#i rarely watch anyone elses streams but i watched his streams and he played mc too which was so fun and chill#also a plus was that he was Hashtag Normal about dream when he was brought up in chat twice#w one message being an easy setup for shitting on dream so ^_^ (i dont remember what the second one was)#hashtagBareMinimum but i take what i can get okay <- too scared to look up his socials bc what if for some random reason#he said something neg about dream recently even tho i dont think he has ever weighed in on shit outside of osu and drama in general#trust issues after so many of my former faves said shit unprompted >_>#he was on a team with btmc for owc too btw. yes btmc played in the world cup even though he joked about being the benchwarmer 😭#he didnt play too many maps but thats cause the us has a ridiculously strong core of all-rounders thats hard to replace#and after that core the us is basically just finding extremely specialized players for specific map types#lmfao this reminded me of one of the top osu players following dreams fanart acc for some reason 😭

Something so devasting abt realising a blog that u sometimes reblog from actl fervently hates one of your faves
#shoutout to those blogs censoring?? names & wishing death on real life ppl#ok but fr tho it's so jarring#esp when u see their hate posts and most of the time whoever they're hating on has done nth#or the op completely twisted the situation to spread hate for no reason#so tragic that it's almost amusing to me cuz im just here like hehe cuties#and then I find out blogs are actl full-on wishing harm on ppl they don't even know beyond what we get to see on tv/socials#absolutely wild to me that such hateful ppl can exist#esp those that post hate posts frequently/have posts going back years#even more ironic are those that preach abt how their fav has had to withstand hate#and then they're here perpetuating hate#(ofc this refers to hate w/o any gd reason)#anyway just thoughts but idk when I see these kinda posts that r hateful for no reason#I just immediately think damn yall must be so unhappy#weird that we can have 1 of the same blorbo and meanwhile u're full on wishing hate on my other fav blorbo 😔#anyway no thanks I'll stick to the chill side of the fandom that just vibes with everyone#f1blr#f1 2024#idk I just find it rlly weird to intentionally spread hate for no reason#it just results in misinformation and such a toxic fanbase#weirdest part is that ppl are willing to talk so much crap abt ppl they've nvr even seen irl lmao#lando norris#carlos sainz jr#lewis hamilton#max verstappen#charles leclerc#oscar piastri#lance stroll#esteban ocon#liam lawson#yuki tsunoda

#historical hetalia#hetalia#aph norway#hws norway#damn this took a long time#if you haven't heard much from me the last three days it's because I was studying and doing this#had this idea ages ago but never did it because: very time-consuming :P#but now I did it!!#SNL (store norske leksikon) has this great illustration of all these uniforms and it is inspiring every time I look at it#and then norgeshistorie.no posted a new article about militarization in Norway during the union with Denmark and I had to do the project#we all know how much I like drawing uniforms and historical clothing 😔😔😔#even bought a book about historical clothing this spring - for references#but it's a bit confusing so might get another one if I see a good one#I do love the historical asks I get because then I get to nerd out about all the cool history I know 👀#I have mentioned before but; Norway was perhaps /the/ most militarized country in Europe during the 1600s#there are a lot of stories from towns and villages nearby about the results of this#anyway; hope everyone enjoys Norway in uniforms!! 😁#I am sure some minor details will be inaccurate but I tried
