#that i just think were out of proportion

hot take but i think that if we want thomas to put out content more frequently by making shorter things that require less effort then we also have to do our part.
thomas has a lot of pressure because he probably feels that he must keep this reputation of a perfect guy who never fails to make children smile and teach people of all ages important lessons on mental health etc. in order for him to be comfortable putting out simpler content we have to understand that he will make mistakes while doing it. because if he has to ensure every video is perfect and has months of dedicated research to back it up, then that causes videos to take so long or never get made.
if thomas decides to try putting out content like that sleep documentary more often then we have to be prepared to forgive him for mistakes instead of scaring him off by scrutinizing every single word he says.
i know thomas is an adult with a decade of experience on social media and i’ve said before that most criticism on this site is probably pretty inconsequential since it’s properly tagged and easy to avoid. but i want to just talk about this because probably people talk about criticism points from tumblr also on twitter where it will unpredictably show up on thomas’s timeline, or on youtube comments.
and i’m also not talking about big stuff and also the difference between what is a “small” and a “big” mistake and what each person is prepared to forgive is very subjective* but. but i just think we need to be aware of this. if thomas uses a word that’s a bit insensitive, makes a joke that’s out of touch, references something problematic, relies on a stereotype to portray a character, stuff like that then. we can try to bring it up so he is aware of the mistake but in moderation (making an attempt to see if there’s not already a hundred comments about it already, for example) and with kindness and just… approach the issue with good faith.
because if he puts out a short sanders sides inconsequential episode and uses a word he shouldn’t have and a bunch of people interpret that as him not caring about an entire demographic or him having terrible bigoted beliefs or him not caring about the show at all or stuff like that then he will feel discouraged and then we all lose. he must be held accountable for his actions but there are ways to do it that don’t involve interpreting an unfortunate phrasing or joke as him having the worst intentions in the world.
we cant demand perfect content that is also frequent. and most of us understand by that that we don’t need big big productions that address big big issues, but also we have to understand that we shouldn’t demand perfection in thomas’s awareness on social justice issues or in his keeping track of plot details or in his vocabulary or his use of language either. he’s a youtube comedian, after all. not a politician or somebody working at marvel or netflix or whatever.
i don’t know what’s right or wrong and i don’t know what exactly constitutes the set of “small” mistakes that we should be prepared to forgive but i think that if we all take a minute to think twice before judging him then it’ll be better and maybe he can feel more calm about creating content. which would be awesome because i love him and i want him to enjoy the process of creating. so. these are my thoughts.
#* im still trying to figure out what this means in my personal case#ts criticism#this isn’t about anything in particular but#i have several instances in my head of reading people’s complaints on some things thomas said#(some recent and some that are years old)#that i just think were out of proportion#and i don’t like seeing that#but i don’t want to comment on any specific issue because i’m not the arbiter on right and wrong

hello 911 why are all the LO volumes classified as grades 6-12 except for the newest volume which is more appropriately categorized as grades 9-12
please no
#and no i'm not trying to be all 'think of the children'#but it also squicks me out to think of the potential of 11-12 year olds learning about sex through the onscreen rape scene in vol 1#and also minthe verbally abusing hades during sex#esp when these categories are also meant for PARENTS not just kids#the parents are the ones buying the books and being told that these books are appropriate for their kids#like why is the trial arc volume the one that gets the age bump LOL#what about the trial arc is more “mature” than the rest of it lmao#“kids under 12 won't understand courtroom proceedings” ok first of all the courtroom proceedings in LO are completely made up and stupid#but also the trial arc isn't appropriate for kids but all the other shit in LO leading up to it is ??? hello ???#i know i'm probably blowing it way out of proportion but ughgh it's still ick#know your audience jfc#on the flipside it's really funny because it goes to show that anyone older than 18 is probably too old for LO lmaoooo#makes me think of all the ppl who talk about how they liked LO when they were younger and then later realized how gross it is#lore olympus critical#anti lore olympus#lo critical

that "i wish that being aware of a mindset being ridiculous would make it easier to snap out of it" post hitting hard every single day
#talkys#parents: you are manipulating your friends into going out of their way to do nice things for you.#you need to give them a break from all your demands and stop asking for help and handouts.#me: dis isn't true i've exerted an equal amount of effort into friendships but in different ways. my friend driving hours to pick me up#and take me out of town and my other friend sometimes buying me gifts are equivalent to when i'd stay up all night#to edit every single one of their essays before they were due or listening to all their problems and giving them advice#dropping everything to be there for them etc. this is how friendships Work#also me: ohhh trueee everyone's going to get sick of my evil selfish ass soon :(#god the tags on the other post got too long but i forgot to add it sucks venting online too bc when ppl try to comfort me#im grateful but all i can think is oh my god im so horrible for painting my parents as villains when they arent.#what if people convince me to do a wrong selfish awful thing. im being ungrateful. im a liar. im blowing it out of proportion#its actually not that bad im just spoiled and unappreciative (+ then life will rightfully kick my ass)#i know many ppl who wish they were in my shoes. i might even be if i realize how insurmountable being alive is if i get to leave for a bit#delete later

Pretty proud of myself since I say they all look pretty solid 💪💪 Favorite ones were Ragatha, and Caine 💗💗 (But mostly cuz I LOVE their designs 💥💥💥💥
But if anything, can you tell who’s my absolute favorite?…Pretty hard to guess not gonna lie- 🧐🤔🤨
#The Amazing Digital Circus#TADC#This was a lot of fun omg‼️‼️#I liked doing little doodles of these guys interacting- Think that was my favorite part since I just thought of funny little scenarios with#them 😂#Okay but I SERIOUSLY thought Zooble was gonna be trouble to draw#I loved her in general but HIS DESIGN IS A NIGHTMARE⁉️⁉️#I CAN’T imagine animating him in 2D-#No wonder they did 3D instead 💀💀#Zooble wasn’t that bad though I’ll be genuine#Proportions were a little weird but they were fine-#Also thought Caine would be a struggle but I loved him!#I love his design since he just SCREAMS sexyman. But his face was a bit hard-#Like it a lot though!! Came out pretty good!!!#Also as you can see I only drew Bubble once 😀💧 (Sorry Bubble fans 🙇♀️)#Omg the tags- They’re gonna be a NIGHTMARE-#Okay *Cracks knuckles* I’M READY#Caine#Pomni#Ragatha#Jax#Kinger#Zooble#Gangle#Kaufmo#Bubble#Doodle#Doodle Dump

i'm still working on my PV for today, but perhaps in the meantime you can enjoy the remnants of my scrapped anniversary plans from earlier in the year w
at the very least, should i ever choose to return, i'll at least have one ZOLA's hair and faceup done ! ! !
#miodoodledavinci#zola project#kyo#vroid#it only took me like three months to do w#what's another like. twelve billion months completing the outfit and editing the model and doing the rigging#and then doing it all over again with the other two?? w#no joke though i may genuinely end up restarting this and going for a simpler style if i want to make a group set ;;____;;#i might actually die if i have to put this level of effort into yuu and wil skdjfhgjkl#really want i ought to do is make a design bible first instead of just#drawing mock-ups on top of the model and going from there#i think . . . . if i had clear and clean artwork this would be a lot easier . . . . .#case and point: the salvador model i have in progress took 0 minutes to make because all the colors and proportions were already there#same with the shrimp miku i was working on though i stopped because i got burnt out trying to figure out clothing folds dskjfhgk#vroid power . . . . . . someday . . . . . .

#just look at this sexy void-creature-man just ferociously playing that guitar#honestly this looks like a great shoulder and back workout. or at least for a warm-up. I may incorporate it on my upper body days.#I mean look at this man's physique! cut like a marble statue#but anyways back to this look. A CLASSIC.#and one of my favorite iterations of his face block-out looks. The swirls were just a super fun take.#and I'm such a sucker for when his hair was styled and painted white like this. it just really put the whole look together.#and anyone else think he looks like a troll (modern version. not the 80s toy) but in regular human proportions#like this troll is a guitarist 🎸✨Wesley✨🎸#anyways he looks hella fine. thanks for coming to my ted talk.#Wes Borland#Limp Bizkit#nu metal#down the rabbit hole

it’s me, hi, I’m the white witch, it’s me
#this was such a good episode I'm basically head empty no thoughts#can you imagine what jacob went through?? like...who's getting the award for most traumatized#the way home hallmark#that moment between nick and alice in 2007 was...interesting#their whole dynamic is interesting because it's so messed up! it's not romanticized or whatever it's just messed up and it messes them up!#I can't believe this is a hallmark series not just because they're including something messed up like that but also because they've made a#a series that lowkey makes me want to lie on the floor#also nick found the notes HE FOUND THE NOTES OH MY WORD#they really went there! I was wondering if they were going to do anything with him being back and that's where they went!#I never would've thought they'd do that#the way kat and elliot were prepared to just drop everything and go to london#and the way kat is always falling into water and bleeding out#I feel like there has to be more to what happened at that party? because what happened doesn't really feel proportional to the big deal the#made out of it? idk#anyway yeah I think that was one of the best episodes of the season#earl crow ramblings

Just wanted to mention this to someone who does art and get their opinion on it:
Sometimes I see some artists do redraws of their old artworks or characters and think "Wow, uh... their older art looks better." Sometimes it's only mildly better, but other times it's vastly better. Like the Upgrade, Go Back! meme.
I understand that art skills are supposed to develop and change, hopefully for the better, but sometimes it just feels like they got... worse? Somehow? Idk. Maybe it's because they were copying another artist's style while finding their own, and it's their own style that doesn't vibe with me? Just curious what your thoughts are about this.
Also, your art has consistently been great, so this isn't directed at you.
I do see this on occasion yeah! usually (in my experience anyway) its because people take a sharp turn towards a stylization that either isn't to your or most people's tastes, or that they don't understand or are still developing. switching up how you stylize your art is like starting over in a sense, you're changing from what you have practice with and that's always going to cause you to revert some as you have to re-learn things you understood in your previous style. i had a pretty big style shift in 2014 when i took up the basis for how my art looks now, and i remember feeling like some of the stuff i was drawing might have looked better if i was using my older style instead. that's something artists just have to push through and figure out, and they'll likely come out of it a better artist than they were before. constructive critiques are a good way for them to figure out why their art might not be as "good" as it used to be, if they're open for those.
art is not always a linear journey, and i would also say things like passion and motivation have a part in it too. feeling inspired sparks you to make something the best it can be, if you're not feeling it (and esp if that feeling lasts for a long time) it'll leave you making decisions you otherwise would not have let fly, and that can result in worse art. and some of it is just personal preference! it's not that their art is better or worse, it's just different now, and maybe that doesn't vibe with you the same way their old stuff did. and that's fine 👍
(thank you! :3 i admittedly struggle a bit with Not Feeling It sometimes like i just described, so it's nice to know people still enjoy what i make when that feeling hits.)
#ask#anonymous#anon#art talk#or occasionally its because they let the h-rny take over and um. they get Grotesque about it whhjbdfdfg#i saw someone post a before and after fanart pic of tasque manager on twitter and everyone was like omg you've improved so much!#and they were all talking about. the older piece. because the newer one had some Proportions that werent even sexy they were just uhhhhhhhh#deviantart would be impressed. lets say#and just generally some of the other anatomy and rendering got way wonkier and broken from the earlier one too. it was strange#the weird thing is the older one was also a lil spicy/exaggerated but it was like tasteful and the anatomy was solid and it had some good#coloring and rendering choices etc etc. idk thats always the first example i think of because there were so many comments#pointing out - inadvertently - that the new art was Worse. but i do see it sometimes. i also think of um#there is some notorious artist whos style suddenly got really transphobically stylized. and racist#you'd think it was a troll but it was real. and most of their older art was actually p good is the weird fuckin thing !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!#why'd you kneecap yourself like that bro. i dug around a bit and the artist was rcdart#i feel like most of the examples i've seen of this are COMICALLY bad. like the artist got brain damage#anyway thats a novels worth of text but tldr yeah it do be like that sometimes. rip

made up a group of edwardian-era hockey girls, Heavily inspired by the many wintery late 19th/early 20th century photos i processed in an archive over the summer. at some point, i decided their team would be called "the hail raisers".
#it's all about texture texture texture#i'm very bad at modeling old handwriting. but just bc i've seen a lot of old handwriting doesn't mean i can replicate it :/#also- technically the vast Vast majority of any photos pre 1930 (that i worked with) were explicitly black and white#but we're gonna pretend this is some super faded autochrome!! which works bc i LOOOOVE autochrome <3<3<3#the things i'm most proud of here are 1) the gloves and 2) the personality shining through each girl#they're bruised and bloody and gap toothed and they're ready for more!#my art#artists on tumblr#edwardian era#edwardian art#hockey#also this is more for me but- gap toothed girl is clara#alma's the formal looking one (with a crooked nose). lenore's looking dazed and confused. and dolores at the bottom right is out for blood#(also i'm preemptively blaming any 'off' proportions on the fact that they're wearing bulky sorta-oversized winter clothes)#(also also- drawing old fashioned hair was fun. they kinda just did whatever as long as it's in a particular shape)#(also also also- i enjoyed drawing injuries. for better or worse i think of 'injuries' whenever i think 'hockey'.#now. would you photograph edwardian-era girls beat up to hell? idk. but check out the 1890s princeton students post-snowball fight photo!)

it's real dingus hours.
#ugh#i think everything's okay now#but basically i blew some stuff out of proportion and got real upset about it#and acted like a jerk#i took a bit to cool down and apologized to all the people who witnessed it#and especially to the person who bore the brunt of it#and they were very understanding and forgiving#but i'm still just absolutely eaten up with guilt#i know im catastrophizing#and my emotions are everywhere for a lot of reasons#but#uggghhhh#i really feel like the worst person alive

thinking about fallout 4 against my will
#random thoughts#fallout#unfortunately nora compels me#the fact the 'hi honey!' tape specifically mentions her 'shaking the dust off' her law degree is interesting#like she gave up her job to stay at home with her husband and kid. why?#like that's a whole year. at LEAST.#love the idea of nate pressuring her into it <3 maternity leave turns into 'isnt it so nice being with sean around the clock?'#'too bad you won't have this quality time when you return to work'#turns into 'you can always return to work if you feel like it but we DO have a lot saved up . . .'#and it's like. okay so fallout 4 would be so much better if it were set in the 1960s. literally no reason it shouldnt be#yknow beyond complying with lore which. it isnt that faithful to in the first place#i just think it's weird the game is like 'here's the FUTURE' and then it's like 'here's the FUTURE FUTURE'#anyway make it the 1960s. give me time-appropriate fucked up family dynamics#and nora's a laywer and a feminist who promised herself she'd never compromise her career for a man#and nate seemed so NICE and like he understood until uh oh. frog in a slow cooker#and he makes everything seem like it's her idea until she's barefoot in the kitchen with a screaming baby on her hip and burnt food in a pan#and she doesn't even realize she's trapped until it's too late. isolated from friends and family#idk ill do more research later to make it more time-accurate (ESPECIALLY interested in second-wave feminism)#anyway i think she cheats. with a door-to-door salesman selling places in the bomb shelters#(honestly probably the only adult social interaction she's had in weeks beyond her husband)#i like to think at some point she had a bit of a car accident due to the stress so nate took her keys#probably just a minor fender bender he blew out of proportion but she believes it because oh god what if she hurt sean#her feelings toward sean are complicated. i dont think she quite loves him which she feels guilty about so she overcompensates#with trying to keep him as safe as possible and she feels like he KNOWS and HATES her#(honestly when the bombs drop everything happens so quickly and when she's in the future and registers sean's gone she feels. so relieved)#(followed by heavy shame)#nate sabotaged her birth control btw. love evil 1960s patriarchs#never outright stated but heavily implied!#anyway nora in the future (while she felt very progressive for her time) feels very out of place#like her ideals have no place. like she has no place
