those who have watched more cdramas than me-- is there a good visual shorthand used for male characters who are trying to go unnoticed/disguise themselves?
#i'm thinking like a cloak in western media#or there was a recent gifset of a guy wearing a veil over his mouth iirc#that kind of thing

sometimes i wish i was one of those artist that make people go "this is a PAINTING???" or "with WHAT programm/medium???" but its just not what i can do or find fun :/
#ganondoodles talks#personal#not really for the attention thing but more for .. work being recognized?#im not sure#to feel more like people actually stop and look at sth instead of skipping over it?#maybe its jsut an internet phenomena(?)#like the way everything is just consumed within seconds and never lasts long and if you miss the trend you are irrelevant#the sort of weird pressure to have to subvert expectations or be exceptionally exceptional just to be recognized ?#(which i know isnt always a good thing lol)#also this isnt a complaint per se more like a thought#like i sometimes wish i was into the popular characters instead of the niche ones etc#that kind of thing#also like i wish i could make art that really speaks to people .. like those that are just so .. interesting and strange and poetic#bc (while i know fanart and silly oc projects arent worhtless) those feel more worthwhile? more worth really being called art?#for soemthing to be truly art it should be either exceptionally skilled or profound like the greatest poets?#im just doing whatever my brain allows me to do- which i know is fine#but i also dont think its inherently wrong to wish for being more than that sometimes#(... maybe its mostly just loneliness without knowing how to find friends)#(especially where i am and especially as i just want a friend to live with - not a partner... i dont want to be this alone forever ...)#(actually ....... what if all my art self consciousness comes from wanting to feel less lonely .. oh dear- no time to unpack that omg)

Spotting transport company trucks while travelling is so fun for my gay + chronically online brain because I'll spot a truck that says "GEORGE TRANS" in big bold letters and I'll be like. Congrats on coming out king.

still obsessed with Jenny, picking up the narrator on the side of the road, presumably a person with nowhere to go. And they ask her, hey, "what's that say?" about the legend on the shield in greek on her fresh tattoo.
and what it says is
“I will bring this man back and he will have his city and move freely in his father's halls.”
and she can't say that to this person. She's done this before, after all. "Plenty came through before". She knows she will not bring them back to where they came from (where they came from got them here), they will never have this city (the city is trying to rezone her house), and they certainly don't end up moving freely.
#the mountain goats#i think her impulse to lie is really up to interpretationn and its interesting!#and here answer too#which i see as optimistic#theres only one way out#BUT there is a way!#this too shall pass#that kind of thing#but tbh there is also a funny image of it in my mind#where jenny just goes#😬😥#she's not telling them ints to pertinent and personal#but she still got the tattoo!!!#thats not something tattoo artists jjust have on file for impulse#jenny...from thebes...

originally the monsters were just random designs i liked but due to their origin lore i now have to come up with ironic reasons for the forms given to them 🤔
#something like oh you were responsible for the spread of Evil Forbidden Knowledge?#well now you have the form of a beast that can NEVER freely give out information to anyone - a sphinx#that kind of thing#ice storm over kosa#the ppl who got turned into manticores were probably the close friends and family members of the wizards..#turned into creatures with zero social connections. who you can never befriend

I wish there was more focus in the food world/food media on general everyday healthy eating that isn’t body-focused or diet culturey. Just good vibes nutritious food for everyday. I think Melissa Clark is really good for this, along with a lot of actual cookbooks, but the current pop culture/food media scene is so saturated either with 3 ingredient no flour no sugar 200 calorie lose 20lb nowww videos or workout/training body dysmorphia stuff OR try our ooey gooeyest cheesiest Mac YET triple chocolate fudgey fried brownie clickbait and I just want to figure out what to do with half a head of broccoli or three kilograms of malanga
looking back I do wonder if a lot of *why* food media is like that isn’t some broad question of diet but instead social media programming - both extreme dieting and extremely indulgent comfort food are a kind of vicarious experience for most of the people clicking and it’s rage bait anyway. But it still sucks (esp as it shows another reason social media gamification can destroy a genre)
#Tw food#like I’d be so down for healthy stuff (and I mena healthy very broadly as in - food you could eat the majority of the time for a long time)#That didn’t have any kind of nutritional info just like. How to cook#As well as healthy cooking content that did have nutritional info but not in a dieting kind of way#Just like this is good for you cause ____ it helps your body with ____ need#I’d love to know more ways to cook vegetables or stuff from the farmers market#Or more/easier ways to cook whole grains and stuff like farro or buckwheat flower or fonio or even canned beans#That kind of thing#Tw disordered eating#Given that that’s what it is!!!!

this is like the 4th time I'm writing a scene in a cemetery across all my fics I'm beginning to sense a pattern
#rambling#oh boy i love writing sorrow and grief#specifically writing scenes in cemeteries taking place during bad weather#this time it's while raining#something-something so no one can see the tears fall as he collapses to his knees and screams at the sky#into a void that doesn't respond#that kind of thing

Any day with dinosaurs is a great day~
The Royal Tyrrell is high up on my "happy places" list ♡ we usually come and do a couple laps through, discussing our thoughts and theories, imaging ourselves with these creatures.
It's a perfect date weekend, whether we've been here one a year or a few times (usually a few lol)
#dinosaurs#Royal Tyrrell#paleontology#fossils#ive always taken a few photos as we go through#but this trip im looking for reference mostly#how can I add flesh to this angle to get good anatomy?#that kind of thing

so now that vesperas dead do you think we'll actually get a real backstory for her yes or no
#GOD. my guess is the gang will have to investigate something regarding vespera and find out her real backstory.#maybe go to luzia for help 👀#and by backstory i mean. how did she go numb. how did she start experimenting on humans.#that kind of thing#although tbh i think just being in stem is enough to make a woman numb lmao#anyway i will stand by the fact that vespera was incredibly wasted potential#her character was such a cool concept and she ATE in nightfall#and then after that she was just kind of. gisela p2.#which ties into gispera toxic yuri ig. if youre insane enough. do you see the vision.#sorry for gispera posting twice in one week ill be back to normal soon i promise#kotlc#lady vespera

Thinking about spellcasters where the gesture component is sign language
#so i have this superstition that i never say goodbye i always say some variant on see you later/tomorrow/soon etc#because in my head its a little ritual making sure we will both be safe and well til we meet again#and a customer taught me the bsl for good luck and its immediately become a thing i just gesture whenever i say it#like how i always sign thank you when i say it#and im connecting them to form this idea#good luck charm cast by signing good luck#summoning a familiar by signing can you help me#that kind of thing

And here's another revenant, Laurel! Born and raised in Ebonhawke by a Vanguard captain mother, Laurel grew up with traditional Ascalonian courage running in her blood. This led to her naively signing up for what would turn out to be a suicide mission, and getting her back torn open by a charr. She survived through sheer luck and playing dead, and after learning that it was her own mother who had authorized the mission and hidden its true nature from the public, she abandoned her name and past life and joined a mercenary group, the Ashen Blades. After years of being tricked and abused under the Blades, she betrayed a Priory caravan she was supposed to be guarding and stole an artifact that flung her into the Mists - only to meet Ventari on her quest for power instead of any useful Legends. The centaur flung her back after a year in the Mists with nothing but her staff, half-destroyed armor, and new healing powers to her name, and now she has at least two groups of people after her for betraying them. Great!
Thanks to his history of being betrayed and deceived at every turn, Laurel is cynical and selfish to a fault. He feels he can't trust anyone, and thus seeks out power and independence above all else. Nearly a decade as a mercenary has made him clever, abrasive, and assertive, and his childhood under a Vanguard captain means he has a fair basis in tactics and general knowledge as well. For now, he and Ventari are in a constant tug-of-war over the path he should take, with Ventari acting as a moral compass that Laurel constantly tries to ignore. Despite all his flaws, Laurel's one saving grace is that his past has given him an intense hatred for injustice. He has no patience for those who misuse their power, and a compassion for those who have been wronged that he can't quite push down, despite his best efforts. Once he gets over his misanthropy and distrust, he'll make a shockingly good leader for a ragtag band of rebels out to get revenge on the people who tried to write them off as sacrifices for the greater good.
#art#gw2#guild wars 2#revenant#my art#oc: laurel#and yes - if you've been here a while you may have noticed I added he/him pronouns to Laurel#it felt right#he's more of the type to lean into the male/female ambiguity of her body and shove it in your face instead of hiding it#gets a survey with only male/female boxes and checks both just to fuck up the data#that kind of thing#plus it's funny because i discovered that if I can pass Laurel off as an anime boy twink I've gotten her build and face shape right
