The real "i have been in charge of small children" problem isn't accidentally talking to adults using preschool phases. Its watching niche educational TV shows or movies and having silly phrases work their way into your vocabulary and then you are stuck trying to explain why you always say "That's Yucky!" In an Irish accent

#nia post #the real family experience is when all members of a family are referencing the same niche film that No One knows about #the ref i mention is from number blocks btw #but the classics in my fam are any pbs kids show. MM power ranger movie. surfs up. cars 1 and 2 #this is also true for books #there is a 6 page board book that is still in our family vernacular (boobers colorful soup)

can't believe that skeleman has turned on us, and Halloween Prom is tomorrow.

(what a top-tier UM...we are about to be just totally obliterated in the absolute silliest way. what possible use could this power have outside of bringing us to the brink of utter holiday disaster.)

#art #twisted wonderland #twisted wonderland spoilers #lost in the book with nightmare before christmas #hajimari no halloween #unique magic posters #this was so unforseeable!#i hope malleus gets pumpkinified immediately and sebek has to carry him around on a little velvet cushion #i hope jade puts his plant knowledge to good use by being extremely judgy about the firmness of everyone's rind #i hope that everyone is still wearing their silly little hats as pumpkins #(i know they won't. but if we don't have hope we have nothing.)#and i'm still feeling like oogie's gotta show up later and menace jamil just by existing #perhaps we'll have to team up against him with the scullsman or something 👀#also just to get it out before being proven entirely wrong #my theory is still that he's from the past and we gotta teach him about the True Meaning of Halloween (aka candy and funtimes)#so he can go back to his own time and become the founder of modern-day candy and funtimes halloween or something #bootstrap paradox be damned #i could be entirely off-base but that's what i'm thinking right now #idk he just has the vibe of an old-timey boy to me #he's had the great misfortune of being born before there were hot topics where he could meet other jack skellington fanatics #too late for the black plague too early for the black parade 😔

#actuallyautistic #actually autistic #autism #autistic #autism spectrum disorder #this is sarcasm #but also its true #special interest #i have several expensive special interests #they all tie into each other #glam rock music which leads into fashion/makeup #but also ties into music in general #anyway i went to the store to buy hair dye and black face glitter #because i need it for an outfit for an upcoming concert #they didnt have either one #but i stopped at the bookstore #and they had david bowies moonage daydream book #about ziggy stardust #and they had a beginners learn-to-play drums set #and i wanna learn to play drums #but i think i need to get better at guitar before i take on a whole new instrument #but i cant justify spending the money right now #especially with the upcoming concert #thats going to be expensive #i have to go out of state for it

Disgustingly messy and crusty sketch dump but I couldn't get my own terrible theory out of my head and ended up making a bunch of sketches about it. Also at the end a bonus dickbats and Damian doodle bc I was reading an issue of their Batman and Robin run (IDs in Alt)

#dc comics #dc #batfamily #batman #damian wayne #stephanie brown #tim drake #dick grayson #cassandra cain #duke thomas #anyway. zdarsky run sure is something huh?#its still so funny to me that half of 148 was leaked a few days before like someone has it OUT for that book over at bleeding cool ig #i don't necessarily think this theory will come true I'm just imagining how stupid it would be if it did #I'm not super happy with the dialogue in the cass+duke+dick comic but i felt my og dialogue might've read too fanon #mainly just bc cass' last sentence was originally shorter/just ellipses and duke said smthin like ''wait? villain arc?''#which you could easily find in wayne family adventures. even tho it would've been appropriate for this situation 😭#now the dialogue just sounds kind of generic (esp cass') and it's BOTHERING ME AUGHH. this is the comic book fandom panopticon /j #anyway Bruce is in the retirement home in this scenario /j #me n my friends were talking over discord and came up w the cursed scenario that jason is tims robin in this (apart of the 'redemption' arc #-that he's been nail gunned with in this run. god this run is so weird when it comes to jason. like it doesn't outright dislike him-#-like it clearly does damian and (more obviously) cass steph and duke) but the tone of everything w jason is still bizarre #god. anyway yeah i didn't draw him but please picture grown man tank Jason in the robin undies (ala tt 03 but dare i say better)#also the dick being silly sketch was bc the issue i was reading had damian refer to dick as 'jolly'#specifically like ''unreasonably jolly'' or something like that (god i love when ppl find dicks cheerfulness deeply unsettling hehehe)#and i thought it was so funny. bc damian met dick when we has going through his ''bruce is dead'' depression-#-and STILL thought that dick was extremely unserious. he sees happy dick and is like ''what is wrong w you. genuinely''#but at the same time he loves it #i need to stop reading their batman and robin run so scatteredly (or i can just reread nightwing must die...always a possibility)#anyway yeah 👍 bad sketches be upon you #mine

Y'ALL

Now THIS is the first look they should have given us from the start. Not those bad photoshopped pictures with generic backgrounds. At least here we see the costumes come to their full potential!

#anti rings of power #rings of power #Bernard Hill #LOTR cast #anti rop #and before anyone says something about how Peter Jackson's movies made money too - yes they did #but at least they were based on books Tolkien actually wrote #the Amazon show is not based on any story Tolkien actually wrote #it's just the haphazard and low quality imitation of a greedy and corrupt company #Bernard Hill is right and he should say it #IT'S NOT THE REAL THING #and also #I think he's saying that the Amazon show is PURELY a money-making venture - which is true #the LOTR films were not purely a money-making venture - in fact they didn't even know if they'd be successful at all #and then they were - but no one predicted it

bored, have some of my favorite animorphs quotes

#These kids need psychiatric help #Unfortunately they’re also really funny #I have a whole collection of screenshots in my phone #Plus I feel that a lot of animorphs posts talk about how dark and insightful it is #Which is true #but it loses the fact that it’s also about six kids who don’t know what they’re doing #And that these books #While having deep takes on the trauma and damage caused by war #Is also a children’s series #P-15e #animorphs #jake animorphs #cassie animorphs #rachel animorphs #marco animorphs #aximili esgarrouth isthill #ax animorphs #tobias animorphs

okay the whole vase is great but something about Helen sitting on Aphrodite's lap as she wraps one arm around her shoulder and brushes her leg with her hand, staring into her eyes like that... as she is persuading Helen to go with Paris (while Peitho aka persuasion stands behind them) is so incredibly iconic.

and gay. toxic yuri, if you will.

#helen of sparta #aphrodite #greek mythology #greek vase #not pictured is nemesis pointing at them in outrage #(which is the only time so far i've found helen + nemesis together on a vase... I think about that all the time ToT its all so SAD)#anyway. I consider aphrodite labelling helen as 'the most beautiful woman in the world' to be her opinion. of course she's-#- the goddess of beauty/love so that's sounds obvious but. also consider... it's *her* opinion. aka her choice who she finds hot.#aka sapphic gay lesbian yuri whatever you want to call it helen x aphrodite is real and alive and there's nothing you can do to stop it #none of this 'they were really good friends' helen's sitting in a goddess' lap ffs. have you even read the iliad book 3?? read it again.#it's actually called the yuriliad. bet you didn't know that huh /j #i'll stop rambling (for now)#edit: im looking at these tags a day later and wow i really went for it huh. anyway i'm keeping them it's all true 🧡🤍🩷

still absolutely losing my mind over Lilia

#art #twisted wonderland #twisted wonderland spoilers #twisted wonderland episode 7 spoilers #twisted wonderland book 7 spoilers #sebek: wow we're so lucky to see lilia-sama at his fighting prime. so commanding! so powerful!#lilia: (straight up stuffs a frog in his mouth without breaking eye contact)#seriously though i did not think it was possible for me to enjoy lilia even more. and yet.#'dragon eggs need love in order to hatch'#ten year old me: gasp. i knew it.#the IMPLICATIONS though!#forget true love's kiss we have true love's baby dragon over here #also twst. twst please. i do feel i need to call you out a little bit on malleus' age #i don't really have a problem with it i was just. surprised.#i mean i GUESS the description of dragon ages was vague enough that malleus being under 200 doesn't inherently contradict it #it could've been clearer okay :(#that said it is true that the younger malleus is the more hilarious his whole world-weary immortal schtick is #'ah...you are all as infants in comparison to me. ' - malleus (age 19)#also lilia being a foundling does explain him not knowing his real birthday. so i will forgive (1) birth-related shenanigan.#auuuugh the parallels between lilia and silver #brb i need to go roll around on the ground and mutter to myself for a while

so. around the start of august, I decided to make a story to work on when I wanted to just kind of turn my brain off for a minute. you know, everything is so much all the time, let's lower the stakes and draw some ancient greeks wrestling.

unfortunately for ME, I thought: well what if we explored the peloponnesian war through the sword and sandals genre and throw in a splash of horror for seasoning! then I thought: well it wouldn't be fun for me if I didn't do some reading on the history of it all. what I do I know about ancient greece. I have a fistful of pocket lint and loose change in that department.

folks. there is so much reading. my reading list is only a handful of books, but each of those books is a fucking brick.

anyway, it's still primarily a For Fun story I do in my spare time, so some wrestling sketches, and some other kind of scene :)

��the one with the beard is klaudios, the one with the longer hair is damonikos!

#some people may say 'what about your obsession with the thebaid?' that's latin literature baby #we are several centuries past ancient greece with that one #well. that's not entirely true. I love oedpius and thebes. love thebes! reading a book about thebes right now actually!#and. klaudios is ALSO from lakedaimon. the situation is messy. he's lived most of his life in Anywhere But There (currently Athens)#but he's being a huge dick about it like pal that's ALSO your home state. easy off the throttle just a bit. we are throwing #stones in glass houses here #original tag

If you need me I'll be chewing on the fact that, yes, the other eight uses are in Exodus and are about the Tabernacle tapestries and in the New Testament our bodies are called the temple of the Lord

#LOOK. this book is about miscarriage and its so very good and im crying a lot in a helpful way #but this still blew my mind in the middle of all the crying. clearly i need to do word studies more lol #christianity #miscarriage #death #infant death #and yes i did look into this and confirm it myself. 8 in exodus and one in psalm 139. there IS another derivative also used but #i couldnt figure out how to do a reverse search to find out what verses used that derivative #(because i was using a physical book concordance to start. had to move to digital to actually find the other verses though.#the other entry was two down in the dictionary part but theres no way to go the other way to find the verses that use it lol. anyway.)#BUT as it stands - word for exact word comparison - this holds true #i almost forgot to actually cite the book lol:#you are still a mother by jackie gibson

my shimamatsu artbook came in so i finally got to see the rest of the unreleased teacher set...

scans of gym teacher oso from this set can be found here!

choro's a math teacher, which i feel like is pretty fitting for her. they drew her very cute, peak froggy expression.

ichi's a science teacher, like in teacher matsu merch by movic. he's also setting a bad example for his students by wearing open-toed shoes which is against standard lab safety rules, for shame smh.

jyushi is an art teacher! very cute, he's definitely fitting the bill of the zany art teacher stereotype.

totty's an english teacher. he's really meant it when he said he doesn't want to work bc he's giving us NOTHING in that awakened art. his outfits are very cute, though.

" gee, mj. where's kara? wasn't he the one you were the most curious about? " wELL. i waited to share him last bc...

when i tell you that i opened to this page in art book to find this set, saw kara, and then immediately closed the book...

he's a japanese / literature teacher, which i do think fits. ( still such a missed opportunity to have him as a music teacher... ) * puts my face in my hands * he's such a dork.

#sorry these aren't the best pictures i still need to figure out how to scan bound books with my scanner aaa #ngl kara not being a music teacher here like i was hoping is really tempting me to make him one in kuroba's teacher au...#but idk i'm really attached to him being an english teacher in that au i already have headcanons for how he interacts with his students...#also i'm using she/her for choro bc she's transfem to me. do not question me further. /lh #the movic merch is still my fave version of them as teachers #the only leg up this set has is oso being a gym teacher #that's so true in my heart i love the idea of him becoming a gym teacher in the future...#seriously tho why is kara the only one with different hair it's fucking me up #osomatsu-san #osmt #shimamatsu #choromatsu #ichimatsu #jyushimatsu #todomatsu #karamatsu #official

why is lestat's turn of events more truthful than louis'?? like, no doubt about it that louis is an unreliable narrator. which he also does admit to himself, he is very aware that he is speaking from his perspective and he doesn't know everything and time does change memories and views of those memories.

but why do so many people in the fandom believe lestat over louis? why is he automatically more reliable and truthful than louis?

#i'm not just saying this because louis is my favourite. like yes he is unreliable that is true #but so is lestat and it's weird to not question HIS version of events #the show wants us to question the idea of memory and perspective and narrative and who is telling the story #just because the white character says something doesn't mean you should believe him and pity him #(also lestat is likely under mind control/tortured before the trial into condemning louis and claudia)#QUESTION EVERYTHING PLEASE #READ BOOKS AND ARTICLES ABOUT RACE IN GOTHIC LIT PLEASE #iwtv #interview with the vampire #amc iwtv s2 spoilers #amc iwtv season 2 #tvc #louis de pointe du lac #lestat de lioncourt #amc iwtv #interview with the vampire season 2
