📢Psychonauts NSR AU Observations, Chapter 5: Metro Division District📢

Welcome Bot B

Milla: Ooh! It’s a Type-02 robot! I really like these kinds, they seem very friendly and would hurt anyone if they are rubbed the wrong way.

Sasha: Who knew that Type-02 robots would still be popular these days? They don’t seem to make these kinds anymore.

1010 Fanmail Box (Fan-Made)

Milla: Wait, 1010 has their own category of mail? Oh man, I want to send a love letter—I mean a letter to admire their design.

Sasha: 1010 seemed to be so popular that NSR decided to create their own variant of mail. Most of the things that fans send them are nice fan-letters while some of them are… well, the nicest way to describe it is… ‘really crazy’.

Captain Oleander Poster (Fan-Made)

Milla: “Captain Oleander, great warrior of Vinyl City and manager of 1010.” With a tagline like that, I am not afraid to challenge him to a fight.

Sasha: Captain Oleander is the management of 1010, but despite being the manager, he does get recognition. Possibly due to the fact that he was soldier.

Cal Poster (Fan-Made)

Milla: “Cal, brave and dynamic.” And handsome!

Sasha: Before 1010, Cal was originally going to have five variants. However, Captain Oleander decided to make 1010 more diverse. So it kinda makes sense that he is the leader.

Edgar Poster (Fan-Made)

Milla: “Edgar, cool and strong.” I can agree on that, I wonder if he and the others are made out of Titanium…

Sasha: Edgar is indeed the strongest of the team, to the point that when people give him a hug, he tries not to hardly hug them… the last time a superfan hugged Edgar, Edgar hugged her back that she fainted.

Gloria Poster (Fan-Made)

Milla: “Gloria, clever and beautiful.” She is also very dramatic. Had anyone saw her crying her eyes out after getting a huge thank you?

Sasha: Gloria is the sole female member of 1010, so she ended up opening to more fans such males and lesbians.

Boyd Poster (Fan-Made)

Milla: “Boyd, funny and charismatic.” And his branded-milk is delicious.

Sasha: Boyd was often involved in the community, and was often asked to 1010 involved in other promotions. His most famous one was that he sponsored a milk company.

Fred Poster (Fan-Made)

Milla: “Fred, kind and caring.” This should appear everywhere! Spread the word! Fred is kind and caring!

Sasha: Fred does have fans, but not a lot. There’s actually a website built by his fans to promote him.

Tasty-Branded Cookbook (Fan-Made)

Milla: IT’S TASTY! AS IN TASTY FROM SEPTENTRION! HIS COOKBOOK IS STILL EXISTING!

Sasha: Tasty the guitarist was a known cook. His recipes are very popular to this day.

#submission #nsr #no straight roads #psychonauts #othau #othfic #othideas #noart #i wish there was observations for the og 1/010 posters #like what you have here!#it would have been so cool!#anyway these are great!#already implied i like the poster observations #those are really good #great job!#<3<3<3

When I was little, I watched the Star Wars movies out of order. I decided I hated them. My uncle finds out and tells me to watch them in order ( he's a huge star wars fan). I did so and loved them... So to find out my childhood is a lie and the Millennium Falcon was NOT in fact real and just a painting? 💔 I thought it was a government project trying to imitate flying saucers....

And though my uncle'll probably disown me for saying so, I like Star Trek better. 😁

Before the computing era, ILM was the master of oil matte painting, making audiences believe that some of the sets in the original Star Wars and Indiana Jones trilogy were real when they weren’t. They were the work of geniuses like Chris Evans, Michael Pangrazio, Frank Ordaz, Harrison Ellenshaw and Ralph McQuarrie ! Forever thank you, to their handmade art and the work of their colleagues, that made us dream of impossible worlds and fantastic places across Earth and the Universe.

There are more background paintings on this article, featuring comments by the masters/artists themselves !

Some of the following pieces were made by other artists 2:

#star wars #ggomoz i stan you #my childhood is a lie #millennium falcon #those are really good #artists #star trek #it's all picard #and Spock #i love spock

License to Kitty.

#dungeon meshi #izutsumi #marcille donato #chilchuk tims #I still stand by my tags on the Izutsumi character study piece I did in January - but I will repeat myself on a few lines here:#I *really* love this character. I love that all of the dungeon meshi crew are complicated and have difficult to love components.#But Izutsumi is a particular kind of hard to love. I foresee a lot of people being turned off by her abrasiveness and lack of teamwork.#She is very self-centered and openly goes against what the party agrees on.#She's a picky eater in a story that is 50% about eating good and healthy food!#It is in part about her growth but admittedly even *then* she remains rather true to her self-centeredness.#Even though she isn't as nice or funny or compassionate as the others...Izutsumi is still someone worth loving.#Even the more difficult people are someone worth loving.#And those people in turn are people who have something and someone they love.#She may be a girlcat but she is the most human of them all.#I hope that if you are an anime only watcher and are feeling put off by her at the moment; you'll give her a chance.#By the way: *yes* I worked very hard to draw that skateboard pose. It was worth it.#EDIT: HAPPY 500th POST OF POORLY-DRAW-MDZS!!! What a comic to commemorate the milestone with!

I think, perhaps one of the funniest things to come from EPIC popularising the Odyssey is that now a ton of people think Poseidon wanted to kill Odysseus.

In the Odyssey, Poseidon has no intention of killing Odysseus. In fact, part of the whole reason Zeus lets Poseidon do whatever he wants even though he thinks Odysseus is rad and should get to kiss his wife is explicitly because Poseidon had no intentions of killing Odysseus. Poseidon wanted to pay back the suffering/inconvenience blinding Polyphemus would have caused. It's a really abstract thing tbh. How do you pay back someone permanently disabling your son? Poseidon's solution was just to amputate Odysseus from his other half; i.e. Penelope. The end game was never murder, it was always an endurance race.

(Od. Book 1: Zeus reassuring Athena that he is not, in fact, a part of Odysseus Hater-Nation. Trans. Robert Fagles)

Also, for those wondering if there's any sort of in text reason for why Poseidon wasn't around in God Games - at the time in the Odyssey when Athena petitions Zeus to let Odysseus leave Calypso's island, Poseidon was -checks notes- on vacation in Ethiopia. Yep. He left to Ethiopia for a festival and thusly was very much absent for Athena's whole "please let Ody go? Please? 🥺" request.

(Od. Book 1: While Odysseus was suffering, Poseidon went to party in the east)

I am begging y'all to read the Odyssey. It's a comedy for everyone except Odysseus and Penelope who are, in fact, suffering 24/7 365.

#ginger rambles #ginger chats about greek myths #Sorry for the quality of the quotes but I'm too tired to google a pdf vers of the Odyssey and then edit those so y'all are getting #my crunchy pictures from one of my physical copies of the book lol #it's reiterated multiple times that Poseidon doesn't want Odysseus dead too #he is literally just driving him mad on the ocean because that's what Odysseus condemned Polyphemus to by blinding him #Also there's no good way to mention this but the Odyssey starts #by Zeus lamenting how mortals blame all their troubles and miseries on the gods when that's just not fair #because the gods go out of their way to warn the mortals that will be saddled with the most wretched fates #and they ignore the gods and do whatever they want anyway LMFAO #It's a really smart way to tie in the whole Orestes plot that would have wrapped up in between Odysseus getting stranded on Ogygia #and Odysseus getting off of Ogygia #epic the musical #epic the wisdom saga #zeus #athena #odysseus #poseidon #the odyssey

Today my therapist introduced me to a concept surrounding disability that she called "hLep".

[plain-text version of this post can be found under the cut]

Which is when you - in this case, you are a disabled person - ask someone for help ("I can't drink almond milk so can you get me some whole milk?", or "Please call Donna and ask her to pick up the car for me."), and they say yes, and then they do something that is not what you asked for but is what they think you should have asked for ("I know you said you wanted whole, but I got you skim milk because it's better for you!", "I didn't want to ruin Donna's day by asking her that, so I spent your money on an expensive towing service!") And then if you get annoyed at them for ignoring what you actually asked for - and often it has already happened repeatedly - they get angry because they "were just helping you! You should be grateful!!"

And my therapist pointed out that this is not "help", it's "hLep".

Sure, it looks like help; it kind of sounds like help too; and if it was adjusted just a little bit, it could be help. But it's not help. It's hLep.

At its best, it is patronizing and makes a person feel unvalued and un-listened-to. Always, it reinforces the false idea that disabled people can't be trusted with our own care. And at its worst, it results in disabled people losing our freedom and control over our lives, and also being unable to actually access what we need to survive.

So please, when a disabled person asks you for help on something, don't be a hLeper, be a helper! In other words: they know better than you what they need, and the best way you can honor the trust they've put in you is to believe that!

Also, I want to be very clear that the "getting angry at a disabled person's attempts to point out harmful behavior" part of this makes the whole thing WAY worse. Like it'd be one thing if my roommate bought me some passive-aggressive skim milk, but then they heard what I had to say, and they apologized and did better in the future - our relationship could bounce back from that. But it is very much another thing to have a crying shouting match with someone who is furious at you for saying something they did was ableist. Like, Christ, Jessica, remind me to never ask for your support ever again! You make me feel like if I asked you to call 911, you'd order a pizza because you know I'll feel better once I eat something!!

Edit: crediting my therapist by name with her permission - this term was coined by Nahime Aguirre Mtanous!

Edit again: I made an optional follow-up to this post after seeing the responses. Might help somebody. CW for me frankly talking about how dangerous hLep really is.

#hlep #original #mental health #my sympathies and empathies to anyone who has to rely on this kind of hlep to get what they need.#the people in my life who most need to see this post are my family but even if they did I sincerely doubt they would internalize it #i've tried to break thru to them so many times it makes my head hurt. so i am focusing on boundaries and on finding other forms of support #and this thing i learned today helps me validate those boundaries. the example with the milk was from my therapist.#the example with the towing company was a real thing that happened with my parents a few months ago while I was age 28. 28!#a full adult age! it is so infantilizing as a disabled adult to seek assistance and support from ableist parents.#they were real mad i was mad tho. and the spoons i spent trying to explain it were only the latest in a long line of #huge family-related spoon expenditures. distance and the ability to enforce boundaries helps. haven't talked to sisters for literally the #longest period of my whole life. people really believe that if they love you and try to help you they can do no wrong.#and those people are NOT great allies to the chronically sick folks in their lives.#you can adore someone and still fuck up and hurt them so bad. will your pride refuse to accept what you've done and lash out instead?#or will you have courage and be kind? will you learn and grow? all of us have prejudices and practices we are not yet aware of.#no one is pure. but will you be kind? will you be a good friend? will you grow? i hope i grow. i hope i always make the choice to grow.#i hope with every year i age i get better and better at making people feel the opposite of how my family's ableism has made me feel #i will see them seen and hear them heard and smile at their smiles. make them feel smart and held and strong.#just like i do now but even better! i am always learning better ways to be kind so i don't see why i would stop

truly this one's just for me. I can do what I want foreverrr

#dimension 20 #fantasy high junior year #adaine abernant #figueroth faeth #kristen applebees #riz gukgak #gorgug thistlespring #fabian seacaster #việt phục #tbh the thing Im the proudest of in these sets is the skirt hike+áo tấc flap combo. and of course that went to riz lol #will use that again for other things later down the line. for now we play dressup. come play dressup game with me #some of these couldve done with more cookin time maybe... I feel like. for example adaine's gorgug's and fabian's silhouettes are #a bit too similar for my taste #esp. adaine and gorgug. fabian I feel like I just need to make his waist more apparent #and I really like what Ive got with adaine rn... just gotta rethink gorgug #lmao. the dilemma with using áo tấc is it's generally a rectangle #this never stops me however. if I like a guy enough I Will give them a set #it's not about them it's about me. its for me babeyy #also I love the way scabbards are worn in wuxia. like its just dangling back there #guess the amount of fabrics those characters have on mostly immobilize it. just a real good cushion

Drew a bunch of Marinettes in a bunch of different artists styles it was a lot of fun!!

Artists who's styles I mimicked: @buggachat @hamsternamedmarinette @ladybeug @sabertoothwalrus and @anna-scribbles all epic artists 🤟😎

#my art #marinette dupain cheng #miraculous ladybug #miraculous fanart #style mimic #sorry for the @s btw #yall should go follow those artists if you dont already also #this was sort of inspired by a post the three artists on the top row made #i think they all got together and drew with one another #which is really cool #but i was genuinely confused because i mimic styles a lot #and ive seen others do it too so i was just like #wow they really know each others styles really well #until i thought about it and read their posts some more #style mimicking is really freaking fun and i think its really good practice #and a good way to explore other ways of doing things #like you really have to learn new techniques and get out of your comfort zone #also anna scribbles i could not find a recent pic of marinette in her main outfit #so thats the only marinette i drew in different clothes cuz i couldnt find a more recent ref of you drawing it #anna scribble marinette has privileges thats the others dont #but ye #i also threw my own style in there as a frame of reference to what me draw like #ive drawn marinette before just not in a loooong while #sabertooth walrus was the hardest for me to mimic cuz they have a broad range in their style #so its like which sabertooth do i wanna be in this pic #Buggachat has such a distinct style thats very clean and consistent which is amazing so they were easy #being easy or hard arent bad things either it also has to do with like styles meeting up with one another #buggachats and mine arent too too different in some shapes and aspects #so yeah itd be easier plus they drew marinette like 3 sec ago so i have more recent of a ref #as opposed to sabertooth who i have a recent ref of ladybug but not marinette so we got two diff styles in one

rook falling asleep on the red couch in the lighthouse dining room while lucanis is making dinner....... they were helping out by keeping him company and peeling and chopping potatoes for a while there but then the potatoes are done and the room is so safe and warm and smells like coffee and good food and lucanis is trying to explain something to spite and his voice is low and soft and good to listen to and rook's eyes only slip closed for a moment. they'll get up to save the world again or whatever in a second just. one moment. while the world is warm and kind. and then they're being shaken gently awake an hour later because it's time to eat and everyone's starting to drift hopefully dinner-wards

#lucanis looking down at peacefully sleeping rook like '...I *have* to figure out more things I can do for them than kill or die #because that's a bit limited long-term and one of those will probably mostly make them really upset. (also you only get to do it once.#just not good value for the price as gestures of love go.)#but maker I WILL also do that' as he drapes a blanket over them. and maybe strokes their hair. don't look at me #dragon age #dragon age: the veilguard #dragon age: the veilguard spoilers #dragon age spoilers #lucanis dellamorte #rook x lucanis #rookanis #oc: Ellaryen Ingellvar #do you guys ever yearn. are you filled with unspeakable longing. are you ever brought to your knees humbled and wrecked #before the altar of the mortifying simplicity and lack of grandeur of your own impossible desires. anyway #at one point rye is going to tell this man in a sort of bewilderment of joy and relief 'you make me feel so safe'#and he'll have to go 'you may be surprised to hear that that is not a sentiment a man in my profession gets to hear a lot usually'#'well get used to hearing it (bitch)(infinitely affectionate)'#and then they hug or something idk don't speak to me do not look at me
