Y'all I just had an epiphany
I'm like. Just one body
Not even in a pluralistic sense (still debating that!) but in terms of all of the stuff I'm trying to do I'm just one person with so much shit going on at once. It makes sense that it takes so long for me to get any of my work out there or organised
And honestly? I should be proud of myself that any of the things I'm working on actually get worked on in any capacity. It's incredible that any of my side projects can even happen amongst just. Life in general
#and this goes for any other individual creator too#think about it! You're literally a one-person dev team#the only person in your company#you being able to create anything on your own should be celebrated#i beg of you#be proud of yourself#of your creativity!#artist thoughts#thoughts#for myself#artists on tumblr#small artist#small business

i hope everyone in nintendo’s management department dies and goes to hell no matter what and i’m not kidding
#WERE LOSING YUZU AND CITRA. I DONT KNOW IF YOU ALL UNDERSTAND HOW INSANE THIS IS#game emulation enables piracy yes but it’s also an INCREDIBLY powerful archival tool.#there are plenty of games out there that only exist in their original formats due to emulation.#this lawsuit has HORRIBLE implications for video game history. it makes it incredibly easy for companies to scorched earth their products#if they’re not profitable enough. ART IS GOING TO BE LOST BECAUSE OF THIS. GAMES PEOPLE WORKED INCREDIBLY HARD ON#it won’t just happen to bad games. it won’t just happen to old games. they will use this to keep their remake/virtual console model going#forever and you will never be able to play your favorite games in their true original forms ever again.#i am fucking INSANELY mad rn. capitalism is the death of art fr#personal

horrible children who are. so so mean to each other
#tlt#the locked tomb#my art#precanon griddlehark dynamic is SO funny. the way they are just no-holds-barred absolutely AWFUL to each other.#the fact that harrow made fun of gideon for saying 'i love you' over her dead mother's grave so gideon nearly choked her to death#and then when gideon recalls this story in gtn she's just like 'yeah lol we were wild kids'#also remember when gideon responded to harrow being kind of bossy with 'your parents must have been so relieved to die' like#imagine saying that knowing full well her parents killed themselves in front of her when she was ten!!!! insane!!#there's no sense of going 'too far' between them. they casually hit what would be considered by most ppl to be 'too far' and then keep going#anyway i don't usually go in for characters-being-kids-together stuff but i will admit that childhood gid+harrow#following each other around absolutely terrorizing each other because they're desperate for each other's attention but also full of#hatred and vitriol#does compel me#like...2 very lonely very traumatized children with only each other for company. what will they do? ENDLESSLY TORTURE EACH OTHER!!!#and yet they are each other's emotional support person. its so good.

On the topic of "don't pre-order games! Wait until you know it's a finished product!"
Stop playing Early Access titles. Unless it's a "pre-order and play 3 days early" you're not accessing anything early. That's the state of the game in the now. That's what it is. You're paying full price for an unfinished product, with no promise it ever will be finished.
I'm so tired of seeing a new game "come out" and it's not finished, and I have two choices
Wait for it to actually be finished, perhaps over a year from now. Get hype for it. Watch other people have fun playing it. It comes out. I've lost interest in the meantime. It is now an "old" game despite just now coming out. It's old news. It was a flavor of the month last year
Or actually play Early Access. Do all the stuff there is to do. It's not much. Kind of boring. Frustrated that I'm locked out of so much content. Wait a few patch cycles for it to be "really good" and before I decide to come back to it because there's enough new content compared to when I played. That day never comes. The game is released. I only really remember that it was a percentage of being considered fun and it wasn't really that good, and I don't want to replay back through all the progress I've lost. I don't feel like playing on release.
EA is inherently a cash grab. Its either a death knell for a studio desperate to finish a project, or it's outsourced QA that pays the dev. It's not a fun little treat for all our devoted fans who really just want to help out the little guy.
They've turned "gamers don't want us releasing unfinished games" in their favor. They flipped it onto you where you're perfectly excited to be SOLD an unfinished game, on purpose, to your face.
All of this obviously with a grain of salt. BG3 clearly had a full game waiting in the wings you were just locked out of. Likely the same with Hades II right now. But take the time to consider if you're just burning yourself out on a game that you won't be able to come back and enjoy when it's actually done. Consider if it even seems like it will ever be done.
#Video games#Hades II#Palworld#Icarus#Darkest dungeon#Project zomboid#Escape from tarkov#Satisfactory#Lethal company#V rising#My time at sandrock#Idk what other games to list I'm just working off personal experience#Some of the games listed are already 1.0 released#But I don't care to play them! That's the problem#Tumblr only posts to the first 5 tags anyway#I'm now seeing that fucking Norland is in EA#They had multiple demos and closed betas and still put out in EA?#Finish your damn game#Finish your game before you sell it#I'm gonna start selling wet clay pots

sorry to people on tumblr but I actually very rarely give a shit about found family like i prefer to read about 2 characters being somewhat narratively isolated and getting stuck in a metaphorical blender and it’s them only them and the blades of the story blender turning them into one delicious 2 ingredient smoothie that’s undrinkable to anyone else
#this is about a lot of fandoms but especially rn like murder family like womp womp sorry it never would work idc about it at all#also kind of same with auguste captive prince like I enjoy the Auguste shaped hole in the story more than the man himself#something something the eroticism of having only one other person that could ever accept you like you or enjoy your company

last thing i’ll say; people aren’t owed free content but creatives aren’t owed financial compensation either
#i say all this as a cretive btw lets head that off#their bottom line was ‘we want more money to make bigger things and we cant afford to so we want more money in order to do them’#and that is a valid desire#but you cant just expect everyone to go along with that just bc you want it#watcher got where they are due to a loyal viewer base#to reject money from corporations in favour of money from that viewer base? thats skeevy#to default to a complete and absolute paywall removing all your content then pretend that you weren't going to? thats skeevy#to make a countdown to an announcement then make the announcement a somber trip down memory lane#and an ‘if only we can make more stuff like this wink wink’? thats skeevy#and its skeevy bc theyre a company and no matter how personable they are companies are not your friend#are they the rich we should be eating? no#but when your ceo drives a tesla and eats expensive food that is written off as a buisness expense#AND you have a patreon that you dont capitalise on but still brings you on average 100k a month#you cant act like youre a hard done by creative#endevouring to make more elaborate creations is a good idea#monetisation is a good idea#absolute monetisation with no thought to an alternative isnt#name one indie artist that relies entirely on paid content ill wait#coming out of my cage and ive been doing just fine.txt#watcher#shane madej#ryan bergara#steven lim#hey there demons it’s me ya boy#ghost files

I think it's kinda funny how you can see if a The Hobbit fan is a book fan or a movie-only fan just by asking who their favourite dwarf is and why
#no shade or anything ofc I love the movies too and tbh I liked how they characterized all of the dwarves#it's just weird how#if a book-only person and a movies-only person were to talk about the hobbit#most of the time they wouldn't understand wtf the other is on about#“oh thranduil's final scene with legolas is so sad” / “the elvenking's final scene is with bilbo?? legolas isn't there at all???”#btw who's your favourite dwarf and why?#personally mine's balin#he's the only one offering to face smaug with bilbo#and also afawk the only one visiting bilbo after the quest for erebor#he's just a nice fellow#the hobbit book#the hobbit movies#the hobbit#the hobbit bilbo#bilbo baggins#thorin oakenshield#the hobbit thorin#thorins company#lotr#lord of the rings#the lord of the rings

shoutout to only murders in the building for making struggling writers of colour trying to get their work seen into villains.
and not only that, rex/marshall was portrayed as the one in the wrong amongst a season of television that didn't do anything but suck its own dick for ten episodes. this entire season has been horrible, abandoning all hope of telling a good story in favour of celebrity cameos. look, it's eugene levy! look, it's ron howard! yeah, they don't have anything to do with the actual story but isn't it just so cool that they agreed to be here (because we offered to pay them enough)?! the bad guy is going to be a nobody btw because we have to protect our precious celebrity idols from ~the crazies~ i guess.
honestly, we should have seen this coming when they made the villain of season 2 a struggling young woman who came from rock bottom trying to make a life for herself in a major industry - oh wait, that's the exact same fucking thing they did here. fucking bullshit show.
"maybe to be writer, i had to become a killer." what the fuck are you talking about.
#hey maybe making this after the writer's strike was in bad taste guys!!!#this is not discourse this is me giving this show a fucking reality check#this is so fucking bullshit i hate hollywood i hate new media i hate production companies#the victim (sazz) is white and already has a successful career because she got into the industry when all you had to do was know someone#instead of being constantly asked to prove your worth#like yes she's a woman but they hardly lean into that aspect of her character#this isn't about one struggling person vs another this is about someone who never had a chance vs someone who already has the whole world#on their side#i'm so fucking angry#omitb#only murders in the building#my posts

Not to be too rude on main but I have one friend (not on tumblr) who only messages me to vent about how their family drains them..you live halfway across the country, aren’t financially supported by them, and have a loving partner with a family that accepts you. Yes having a toxic family is difficult (I know from the way I grew up) but there comes to a point where it’s just, why stay in contact at that point?
#not to be an ass but I feel like whenever I hit them up it’s always the same thing#and they only reach out to message me personally when something happens with their family#and they’ll send a long text about what happened and then it’s like “that’s why I’m grateful for you#but the thing is I don’t feel like a friend#I feel like someone to vent to#which is a big part of friendship but that’s not the basis of what a friendship should be#and I can’t talk to them about it because they already have so much going on#it’s a first world problem at the end of the day just bugs me from time to time#but at the end of the day do you actually appreciate my company as a person#or do you want someone who can hold space for what you’re going through#which again the latter isn’t necessarily bad#but don’t say I’m a friend then ?#just someone you talk to when things are tough#like friendship itself is very different than just that#and girl will you have your identity forever orbiting around your suffering or will you actually save yourself

I'm not an extrovert. At all. In everyday life, I'm a yapper, sure, but I need someone to first assure me I am okay to yap, so I don't start conversations, even when I really want to join in sometimes! It's just the social anxiety acting up. God knows where from and why I lose a lot of my inhibitions when it comes to talking to people about music. I don't know where the confidence has suddenly sprung from. I've made a crazy amount of friends in musical circles, either just talking to people about common music or (since it is after all in music circles) talking to bands about their own music. I let out a sigh of relief any time an interaction goes well, because in truth it's going against my every instinct. I wish I could do that in everyday life
#like that's the point where we need to remind everyone around me that as much as I say#radio is 'a job'-- it's not 'my job' lol. I wish I was this interested in data science#but like. Honestly?? I'm not even a data scientist!? I answered a few questions about classical AI having come from a computer science back#background and now people are saying to me 'I know you're a data scientist and not a programmer' sir I am a computer scientist#what are you on about#and like I guess I get to google things and they're paying me so I'm not complaining but like I am not a data scientist#my biggest data scientist moment was when I asked 'do things in data science ever make sense???' and a bunch of data scientists went#'no :) Welcome to the club' ???????#why did I do a whole ass computer science degree then. Does anyone at all even want that anymore. Has everything in the realm of#computer science just been Solved. What of all the problems I learned and researched about. Which were cool. Are they just dead#Ugh the worst thing the AI hype has done rn is it has genuinely required everyone to pretend they're a data scientist#even MORE than before. I hate this#anyway; I wish I didn't hate it and I was curious and talked to many people in the field#like it's tragicomedy when every person I meet in music is like 'you've got to pursue this man you're a great interviewer blah blah blah'#and like I appreciate that this is coming from people who themselves have/are taking a chance on life#but. I kinda feel like my career does not exist anymore realistically so unless 1) commercial radio gets less shitty FAST#2) media companies that are laying off 50% of their staff miraculously stop or 3) Tom Power is suddenly feeling generous and wants#a completely unknown idiot to step into the biggest fucking culture show in the country (that I am in no way qualified for)#yeah there's very very little else. There's nothing else lol#Our country does not hype. They don't really care for who you are. f you make a decent connection with them musically they will come to you#Canada does not make heroes out of its talent. They will not be putting money into any of that. Greenlight in your dreams.#this is something I've been told (and seen) multiple times. We'll see it next week-- there are Olympic medallists returning to uni next wee#no one cares: the phrase is 'America makes celebrities out of their sportspeople'; we do not. Replace sportspeople with any public professi#Canada does not care for press about their musicians. The only reason NME sold here was because Anglophilia not because of music journalism#anyway; personal

When you tell people they should be sending every spare penny to their chosen Gaza fundraiser or they are Bad. But then it all gets a bit too stressful so you have to leave tumblr. :(
#if you know who i'm talking about don't say the username let's be civil#to me this is an example of dishing it out but you can't take it#like oh does it not feel good to feel like shit? you need a break?!#btw i've spoken with the organiser of the fundraiser in question- they live in pennsylvania#according to them they are withdrawing the money a few thousand dollars at a time from the GFM#then transfer the money to the family in gaza out of their account and eat the fees (so kind! there is no proof though)#there's also no way to prove that none of the money raised stays in their account. i have only seen some transfer screenshots#which frankly could be anything. the gfm still says the money is for evacuation but the organiser now says (to me) it is for daily food etc#but the campaign still talks about evacuation. i have asked them to update it to make it clear money is being spent on other things#and to explain if the plan is still to evacuate- that is why these gfms have high goals because of that war profiteering egyptian company#people donate so people can FLEE to SAFETY and if that's no longer the plan you must SAY THAT#they probably will not update the gfm though#it's not like there are 10s of 1000s of dollars involved here or anything /s#i am extremely concerned that at least some of these funds are being skimmed by the bank account owner#i've been watching gfm scamming from waaaay before 7/10 made evacuation from gaza an urgent matter#and large amounts of money is so so soooooo tempting for an everyday person#like easy access to that amount of money that is not rightly yours is dangerous!!#i hope someone is investigating this issue- might email the podcast the opportunist and see if they can have a look

[Id from alt. 1. A surprised assistant manager Zura blushing, with teary eyes and stars around him. He's wearing a party hat and there are birthday decorations behind him. He's saying "you baked me a cake?" 2. Tatsuma, Gintoki and Takasugi standing side by side. Tatsuma has his arms crossed grinning with a satisfied expression on his face. The words "Bought the ingredients" point out of him. Gintoki, with a blank expression is wearing a frilly apron and holding a cake with Sadaharu's face on it. The words "reluctantly bake it" point out of him. Takasugi is looking slightly embarrased, with his left hand on the back of his head and his right hand full of little bandages; his face has spots of powdered sugar. The words "cut the stencil and made powdered sugar rain" point out f him. End Id.]
Well, happy birthday, assistant manager Zura!
#gintama#gintama fanart#happy birthday zura#my art#joi4#salary men#they left all the hard work to Gintoki#or more they meant to help but Tatsuma began with the weird suggestions and frankly sugi's too clumsy#please remember to never let the scissors close to sugi#also somehow tatsuma got access to the fancy managers kitchen#I don't know what this company sells -prolly shaddy stuff- but it sure has an exclusive fancy kitchen#is there something more awkward than an office birthday celebration#they decorate your desk and put on the same old birthday decorations and you don't know what to do while they sing you happy birthday#if i sound like a sad hopeless cynic is 'cause i am i'm very sorry i can't be serious about all the corporate bullshit#any way happy birthday zura you silly person#it's obvious i've been thinking a lot about the salary men au but i can only express it in this series of silly comics#Zura enrichment week#office worker au#salary men au
