Why is it even called a Funeral anyway? There's nothing fun about it.

So guess what major life event I had to muddle through huh?

to top it off too, I've also had a bunch of OTHER major life changes all happening at once, including stuff with my job and flat- positive things! But not without their own share of stress

I'm doing alright, no need to worry about me, but as you can imagine any art plans kinda went straight out the window. I just had to get my head back on straight.

I'm back in the swing of things, excited about what's coming up, and have got some fun things in the works!

much love for all your patience.

the message of Dungeon Meshi is it’s okay if you can’t take care of yourself and can only take care of others, but you have to let others take care of you too

I don’t think having connections to previous campaigns was the problem, I think centering your entire backstory around them was.

Orym has a tenuous connection to Kiki, and this manifests in knowing more about what’s happening in the wider political landscape (even if it’s just knowing who the players are). Orym is a fully functional person outside of his connection to Kiki. In fact you can remove his being a Tempest Blade from his backstory and just make him a standard Ashari and it all still makes sense.

Bertrand went to the Hells with VM, but other than being able to name drop them, he didn’t have much going on with them.

Ashton having Dunamancy Juice in his brain made for some interesting conversations with Essek, and Caleb, and the Bright Queen. But he had other shit going on between the Titans and trying to keep his suicidal robot friend alive, and finding out what happened to him as a kid, that if you took the Dunamancy Juice out there’s still something to dig into.

Laudna’s whole deal though is/was Delilah. You can’t separate her from that callback, you can’t ignore it. It’s there, all the time. And it means that on some level Laudna is a problem the Vox Machina needs to deal with, it means spending time in White Stone, it means interacting with Vox Machina. It means introducing those characters into C3 in a way that you can’t take back or move past.

And it’s funny, because the people I see complain the most about ‘Bells Hells getting sidelined in their own campaign’ are generally Laudna/Imodna stans. Your girl’s the one who opened that door, and once it was opened there was no closing it again.

The kid is writing letters she'll never be able to send.

Part of this AU was the thought that, for all of this to happen and the Strawhats not tearing the whole world apart in the search for them both, they can't know that Sanji is still alive. Which will be properly explored at another point 👀

I watched a video recently on stupid products with AI incorporated into them, like BBQs, baby monitors, mirrors, etc. and it got me thinking about how Severance is a really good metaphor for the overuse of AI in all aspects of life. Using AI to generate an image instead of learning to draw, or to translate your homework instead of learning a language, or to plan your essay instead of thinking critically yourself... severance has the potential to removal all complicated, boring, or unpleasant parts of mundane life, but in doing so leaves little left for your "outie" (in Gemma's case especially). You never have to learn or challenge difficult tasks because you can leave it entirely up to something (someone) else.

Me watching parkour civilization for the 1st time: 'The book was written in parkour' thats so funny, sure this series is a little silly but its got alot of funny moments even with all the vine booms :)

Me, another watch through and two weeks later: See everybody gets the capitalism metaphor in prkciv but- what most people dont realize is that it goes beyond that: the prison industrial complex. See, the people in parkour prison are forced to parkour not only for food but constantly and in many difficult ways. AND because we know that parkour operates as a form of currency in this world, the prisoners are being forced to do something that should result in them being paid, for nothing ! Which bares resemblance to how in the real world, privately owned prisons are able to make a profit by---

actually continuing from this train of thought (in my head at least): hextech as the intermediary in viktor and jayce's relationship.

the focal point of their interactions. the thing that has always been between them and that they could channel all of their emotions into and have it be "our hextech dream".

because a partnership is built on a common goal.

the obsessiveness, the elation, the sleepless nights, the risks, (the love, the love, the love) it all gets channeled into (and through) hextech.

the the reason jayce and viktor didn't, couldn't, come together sooner was because they had hextech to obsess over.

and it took the complete and utter annihilation of that goal in order for them to see each other clearly and go, "no, it's you, it's always been about you. for you."

un.well.

the devil card is number 15 in the tarot deck... it has been 15 years of dnp together... their journey started with phil predicting dan.... the crafty video devil card symbolism.... how does their journey relate to the major arcana if we ascribe each year a card in sequence with 15 being this year...

wait there’s something that i’m too tired to actually fully form the thought for but i’m watching iron man 3 and in the scene where tony meets harley tony is talking about the suit like “i built him i need to take care of him” “I’ll fix him” “he’s in pain” and yeah he’s being a little quippy but those are also sincere sentiments. he wants to take care of the suit. he loves it as if it were his own, in a way. but the iron man is an extension of himself….earlier in the movie he tells pepper that the suits are a part of him. but he wouldn’t take care of his human physical form the way he takes care of the suit. or at least, he doesn’t. he does take care of the suit though. he doesn’t care much if he’s hurting, but he does care when the iron man is. it’s hard for him to love himself. but he does love the suit, and the suit is a part of him. and it’s like loving himself in a way. he can’t love himself….but this is as close as he can get to that right now. the suit is even, like…..like this specific suit, the mark 42 and its brothers, he made them to protect himself. and building all those suits wasn’t healthy but it was his brain trying to keep him safe. wrap him up in a metal embrace. he hurt himself in so many ways during this time but it’s so hard not to while living in an endless state of mental and spiritual chaos post-wormhole. and maybe a part of him wants to try to take care of himself in the wake of all this and building and loving the suit is the closest thing to loving himself he can grab onto in this moment of his life. it’s messy and self-destructive but it’s also that part of him that’s trying. a flower fighting to bloom through snow. can you feel what i’m feeling at all
