#thoughts aplenty

(heaven is you,)

(heaven is you,)

(heaven is you.)

everything else was stressing me out so i drew a bunch of hands to relax (thus me not bothering to polish them) (did its job for the first couple hours then i got anxious again)

not me writing a mini essay about the relationship between sailor & ship again

[outlying-hyppocrate]

if i display even the slightest bit of sickness i shall quickly find a mask and slip it on lest i disgust those near me.

Religious/spiritual bipoc youth who have to grapple with generational trauma, religious guilt, and on top of that their own peers giving them a hard time for being religious/spiritual because it makes them "the enemy" or whatever... yea

I recently re-watched Encanto after a while, and Luisa REALLY reminded me of Kouko, so I figured I'd draw this! I've been insanely busy lately, but I managed to squeeze this in because brainrot LMAO I'll probably draw another happier doodle of Kouko as Luisa later on, because it's so cute, but for now, angst.

Surface Pressure really strikes me as a Kouko song, not just because Kouko and Luisa have plenty of things in common, but also because it's a song about being a older sibling and the immense pressure of trying to protect your younger siblings. A TON of Kouko's character motivation is avenging her little sister she couldn't save when she was a child. I would've drawn Fuyuko in Mirabel's clothing, but I figured it was sadder to make her a silhouette because Kouko has no idea what an older Fuyuko would look like for obvious reasons.

I love how the skirt came out, but the light source layer made it really difficult to shade the shirt, so I may redraw this in the future when I figure out how to tweak it to work properly! Otherwise, though, I really like how it came out!

And the hilarious takes just keep on coming.

Dean was more devastated by loosing Castiel at the beginning of Season 13 than his dad, Sam, Sam again, Bobby, or Mary … 🤨

And Sam was a selfish a$$ for not freezing Dean and presenting him to Jody and Donna so they (Dean's found family, but not Sam's I guess) could mourn him. Because Dean - don’t leave me alone with theses people - Winchester would have wanted a huge funeral, full of his potential sacrifices for Sam, ahem, I mean his found family.

Sorry, I started this blog with the intention of focusing on characters not real people's ridiculousness, but ….

It just too much. These people can’t have watched the actual show!

Planar Tears C21 coming in the next couple of days! I’ve struggled a lot with the fundamental passivity and repetition of watching someone be ill and being able to do little about it but worry; but I think writing that out was necessary to stop this plot beat feeling weightless/easily resolved (and it WILL be important later!) So I’m pleased to be at the 2k mark and wrapping up a relatively short one, ready to move on :)

you know when parents say "i'm not mad, i'm disappointed?"

when it comes to this episode i'm not disappointed, i'm confused

[ohmeadows]

sunaifen? guinashang? whatever they are, stocks are rising, and id love to know ur thoughts before we see guinaifen in game

the way they clearly have some bond, with sushang giving guinaifen her xianzhou name. protective knight sushang trying to deal with guinaifen and her hazard antics. she's a public menace but also so hot.

i have a lot of respect for sushang after wrapping up aurum valley. she clearly cares deeply to the point of getting herself stuck in messes. mmm. they have some real good solid ground going for them.

also remember when i said "it's cute that sushang has some awkward distance with guinaifen, like she's not sure how to deal with the fact that she's going to outlive guinaifen for centuries to come and while guinaifen will grow ill and old it won't happen to sushang the same way" because i think about it still. like sushang wants to do right so bad she would agonize over this.

Man, I take a break from this fandom for like seven years and everyone simps hard for Ford.

I couldn't be prouder, honestly.

[first-son-of-finwe]

I’ve discovered that I came to Bali at a pretty amazing time - during Nyepi.

Today is the night before Nyepi, and there were Ogoh Ogoh parades all over the island. These scary looking figures are made months in advance, and they’re paraded around with people making as much noise as possible.

The idea is to attract demons to the island. Tomorrow is the ‘day of silence’ - everyone has to stay inside, electricity and data roaming is shut off, and many people spend the day fasting, meditating and staying completely silent. When the attracted demons arrive, they’ll find what looks like a deserted island and move on. Thus Bali is safe for another year.

Since tomorrow nobody is allowed on the streets (tourists included), my friend had two large chickens in her fridge for both of us. But we did get caught out by places closing early tonight and didn’t have any dinner. However, my hosts just informed me that they’ll give us all breakfast, lunch and dinner tomorrow….so hooray, I’m eating that chicken now because I’m starving 😆

thoughts abt return au Thatcher

either he hates taking baths now (like a cat) or they’re his new favorite thing. actually I imagine all any of the ex-alts want is a nice long bath and a fresh change of clothes. they just wanna be clean again (especially Jonah)

also whenever Gabriel is talking to him they have to stop and be like “are you actually paying attention to a word I’m saying or are the intrusive thoughts telling you to bite my arm off because it looks tasty” and Thatcher just. blinks.

“if I said yes to the first one and no to the second one can I have a scooby snack” /hj

HGDEGGH

I think he’d like baths honestly. It’s just. Relaxing.

Also if he stares at you for a concerning amount of time, just hope you aren’t a dick cause otherwise he has a reason to kill-

i admit i initially thought the cat was a creep. alice in wonderland prejudiced me. i have revised my notions of smiling cats

i've decided the cat is a metaphor for the magic of a robust public transport system

happy ending YES bitch!!!!!!

ok. ok ok ok. that was magical.

(as a first-time adult viewer i was worried i wouldn't be able to Access the Magic. but i could and i did and it was incredible. that was culture. that was ART. joy distilled into animated form. holy rites of childhood. i understand now. how glorious, this world we grow out of. how full of marvels. i'm going outside to smell grass and sun and get dirt under my fingernails. miraculous.)

[thesumofallmyfears]

This close to getting a dog...but, can we find a rescue/re-home that's what we're after. Nope, it would appear that my county is the land of giant pups or teeny tiny pups. We want a small-medium ish, that's not too hairy and loves the outdoors, we need a dog that can walk, and walk and walk.
