Also increasingly aware that a LOT of people "manage" getting through the 40+ hour work week by sleeping less than is healthy and relying on stimulants like coffee and energy drinks to keep them going.

For people who are unwilling or unable to do this...work really does just dominate your life. Like we really should not have to rely on unhealthy practices just to have a social life or keep on top of housework or whatever.

I know I post about this a lot but I'm so TIRED all the time and it's just so depressing that this is how we're expected to spend the one life we have.

#i have to get at least 8 hours of sleep a night to even barely function #with sleep #getting ready for work #commute #cooking #and errands #I typically have maybe 2-3 hours to actually do what i want in a day #and I'm usually too tired to actually do the things i want to do #and that's with a very short commute #if i actually had a long commute I'd basically do nothing but work #i see my friends like once every few weeks or months #because we're all so fucking busy with work and have such little time for socialising #and none of us even have kids or anything!!

the strength it must have taken for illario to not immediately go full 'lmao since when have you even had a kiss hello lucanis' sibling violence mode during the café talk. inspirational. rook and lucanis really were doing all that right in front of his salad huh

#lucanis is being SO cringe with that line right out there in public and I would die for him. it's just such a weird thing to say #tbf if anyone in the world is used to the insane things lucanis says and would go 'yes yes lucanis waxing poetic about coffee #in ways normal people reserve for trying to get in someone's pants (the roast won't fuck you lucanis)#we've all heard it' like it's all normal I suppose it would be illario. and also he's too busy with the 'shit fuck shit he's not dead #he's not dead of the family members 'supposed' to be dead we're at two definite failures out of two and woe me if the twain should meet #if that IS a demon in there it sure talks exactly in the same bizarre way only my cousin does #does that mean anything what the fuck do I do who do I kill about this' internal monologue I guess #dragon age #dragon age: the veilguard #dragon age: the veilguard spoilers #dragon age spoilers #illario dellamorte #lucanis dellamorte #rook x lucanis #rookanis #I mean he does very much say that to a non-romancing rook too which only makes it all the more delightfully odd #is it a very lucaniscore way of testing the waters. is it just how he always talks about coffee. many plausible approaches here #no one forced him to bring up kisses and 'you should try it' out of the blue like that is all I'm saying. he could have acted normal #(theoretically)#i feel there are reasons to read some stuff into it lol #lucanis when rye says he prefers tea: it's so over cautious overture I don't quite understand myself yet gently rebuffed #lucanis when rye takes him up on the 'so what should a first kiss be' theme: oh we're so back!!!! wait. what. what do I do now #what is this #it's kind of really sweet that rook answers with their own playfully florid beverage based barely hidden metaphor at the end too #matching freaks and having fun with it #as far as lucanis is concerned rye's only true flaws are 1) prefers tea to coffee (oh well. no one can be perfect. cross-cultural love #can conquer all even in this) and 2) weird taste in interior design (did we really HAVE to bring your 15 foot tall corpse statues #with us home rook. I can understand a tasteful skull here and there but this seems excessive. well if it makes you happy I guess)

A Linked Universe meets The Dark Crystal AU! I don't even remember what started it at this point. I remembered that the Dark Crystal and Age of Resistance are things I like, blinked, and woke up three days later with an AU and a bunch of art.

The designs and the story are a wip and for fun so expect a lot of variation! (I have a few different beginnings, ideas for different designs, etc)! :D

In addition to #linked universe I'll be using the tags #the dark crystal lu au and #courage of the dark crystal!

#linked universe #tdc aor #the dark crystal lu au #courage of the dark crystal #lu au au #lu legend #lu hyrule #lu four #lu wind #I've made an au of the au I've gone too far help help-#I gotta get better at drawing gelfling! Their facial structures are very distinct #ALSO I went really big with the ears here lmao #the hugest ears ever seen on gelfling #TRANS ROOLIE TRANS ROOLIE TRANS ROOLIE YIPPEE!!!!#I drew this last month (except for Four) sO HAPPY PRIDE! Roolie gets WINGS! :D #I'm SO pleased with Wind's design! he's a lil fishy! and Four with the horned headband/armor in place of the lil ups in his bangs #gonna try to put the aureyal or symbol of the conjunction and triangles on all of them #IF YOU HAVE QUESTIONS ABOUT THE AU PLS ASK THEM #I'd love to tackle some worldbuilding mayhaps?!#I'm thinking of placing them somewhere before the first battle of stone-in-the-wood in the arathim wars #or after the events of the comics with Kensho and Thurma somewhere #and just figure out another reason for the crystal to be shattered. so many possibilities!#where's the crystal shard this time and how can I split it between them? >:3 niiiiine shards made whole >:3 #quest for the ~~triforce~~ crystal #Hello from summer camp also! Lots of shenanigans!#I'm surprised I was able to draw Four at all last weekend I've been so busy!!!#having fun tho!!! we're having a lunch cookout at archery and campfire is tonight!!! It's going good! see ya!!!

A quick message to everyone out there who hasn't read TGCF, but is considering doing so; may I take a moment to pitch the series to you? Ahem,

An actual, canonical thing that happens in the books:

Our protagonist Xie Lian is on the run from a bunch of angry priests and monks. Said priests and monks are after him because his Ghost Boyfriend beat them all up in the past, and they've come to take advantage of the fact that this Ghost Boyfriend is stuck in the form of a child for reasons to get revenge.

At some point, they get cornered in a clothing store, and are about to get caught. Xie Lian's solution to the problem? Put on a dress, hide behind a curtain, and then scream really loudly while clutching at his skirts when the monks pull it to the side. The monks sputter at having peaked on a lady changing, and quickly close the curtain while apologizing profusely. As they're distracted, Xie Lian grabs his boyfriend turned child and books it out the back, getting confused for a mother and her child at least once.

I'm not joking, I'm not exaggerating, this actually happens in the book. A straight up Looney Tunes skit, starring Xie Lian as Bugs Bunny, happens in the book.

Thank you for listening to my pitch, have a lovely day!

#tgcf #xie lian #hua cheng #These books are actually hilarious and we don't talk about it enough #probably because we're all to busy crying about everything else

This is a very random thing, but years ago I played a game where all the fae had Scottish accents, and I’ve never been able to imagine fae without Scottish accents since.

Therefore, I think that every fae in TWST has a Scottish accent. More specifically I’m convinced that Sebek has a Doric accent, and also that Silver actually has a Cockney accent.

I’ve been needing to share this with you for a while now, and I’m curious on your thoughts here.

ooh, that's a fun idea! I do see some Scottish inspiration in some of the little aspects we get to see of the fae culture (like the Day/Night courts, although they aren't quite as. extreme. as the Seelie/Unseelie :'). so it tracks!

I do like the idea of everyone having different accents in general! not in, like, a cartoonish or stereotypical way, but like...they're from all over the world, so I think it makes sense that that they wouldn't all speak with the equivalent of, like, a transatlantic accent. (...although that would actually be amazing in its own way, hold on --)

(there is something uniquely wonderful about the idea of Silver with a Cockney accent, thank you for bringing this into the world. his whole weird mix of formalities becomes that much better if you imagine he's never said an h in his life.)

#twisted wonderland #joseimuke games are serious business #then again we are just reinventing the yuri on ice dub at this point and we're on (forgive me) thin ice there #also i say chowdah so probably no one should listen to my opinions on fictional character accents anyway #who needs all the letters in these words anyway. me 🤝 silver

when your main characters start dating after years of writing so they finally get to be like this

#rare WIP preview from me #this is in like. 10 episodes. lmfao #its been really hard working this far ahead #my editor isnt giving me any feedback and my friends are very busy so it's felt quite lonely #which is fine! for my friends I mean. but its my editors job to give me feedback...#but the webtoon editors are extremely extremely extremely overworked and my series is set to end so I understand its low priority #its not her fault its webtoons fault. however. its still demotivating...#oh well l m a o #I should be much further ahead ngl LMFAO I want like 12 done but I come back in 2 weeks.#we'll see #when I get really stressed out I go full gamer mode #and usually I'll sink like 60 hours (like 5 days) into a game and then I'm good and move on #but this recent game that grabbed me is. its too much actually #bit uncontrollable ngl I think its an ADHD thing I mostly have just quit playing videogames at all #cause its like yeah being stressed cause theres too much work to do is not going to be helped by losing a week and a half to a game...#and yet.#anyways the game is satisfactory #my friend bought it for me and we've been playing together #and our shared file has. 100 hours on it. and we still havent beaten the game #we're close to beating it and it's not like we're rushing or anything #cause its fun to fuck around and zap eachother or whatever #but it's got me doing math. the exact kind of math I love to do. optimization #and its reminding me yeah in another life id have been an engineer #I'm glad I'm an artist but its always weird like yeah this is easily a path I could have gone down #'artists hate math' speak for yourself doing math calms me down!

no way in hell i'm redownloading tiktok after all of this. the way they praised trump in their little notifications, the way they never actually had to shut down, the way trump is trying to play the savior and acting like he wasn't the one pushing for it to be banned in the first place, the way he's insisting that the solution is for the united states to have 50% ownership of the app.

it's gross, it's foreboding, it's suspicious, and it's frankly not something i want to be a part of.

#it's like they're trying to starve us just so we'll be forced to eat from their hand #we can't let this whole thing just slide by and go back to business as usual #esp not going into trump's inauguration. all of this has just brought further into light just how precarious everything is in this country #esp when you pair it with trump's intention with the hollywood ambassadors like..#we're facing some serious warning signs rn with regard to control in the media #tiktok ban #tiktok #us politics

Happy Halloween!!! The untamed pretty please?

a continuation of 1 2 3

Nie Huaisang at ten isn't that jarring, even considering the adult version he left behind, because he's pretty much exactly as Jiang Cheng remembers him.

Seeing Nie Mingjue at thirteen as a sullen child instead of the looming specter of his memories takes some adjusting.

Nie Haoyu wouldn't take no for an answer and it hadn't helped that A-Ying had been thrilled at the invitation and immediately started peppering the Nies with question that they'd answered in good humor the whole way back. Nie Haoyu seems delighted with A-Ying, finding him amusing and impressive and complimenting Jiang Cheng several times on raising such an impressive son.

He just glares back but Nie Haoyu's good humor is unaffected. His memory of the clan leader is spotty at best and he's coming to the slow and horrifying realization that it was Nie Huaisang and not Nie Mingjue that got his personality from their father.

Joining a clan is probably good for them, long term, and the Nies are the only other tolerable major clan, not that he'd ever expected to get practically kidnapped by them.

The only problem is that Nie Haoyu is going to be dead in two years time and if he wants A-Ying and the Nie siblings to have some semblance of a normal childhood, he's going to have to. Do something about that.

#jc just here going i don't like you and you're really annoying and also i'm going to insert myself in all your business #and your health and nag you and get along with your sons and be suspiciously good at helping you run a clan #but we're not dating wtf r u talking about #and nie haoyu is like *heart eyes* whatever you say dear #asks #anon #prompt answers #prompts are closed #untamed

because in TKC most Eyes match the gender of the god they host (and just in general in-universe it seems most immortals and hosts in possession/possession-like scenarios are the same gender) this implies that the two outliers we know of - Zia (rejected hosting a goddess but was able to host a god instead) and Percy (Eye of Nekhbet) - may be trans. so uh happy pride to Zia and Percy specifically

#pjo #riordanverse #tkc #the kane chronicles #percy jackson #zia rashid #if anyone's curious my personal takes on it are Zia is transmasc and Percy is genderfluid #specifically Percy being genderfluid but just not changing presentation and still using he/him pronouns cause he just Doesnt Care That Much #he's that whole ''if i sat down and thought about it i'd probably come to a lot of conclusions about my identity but im too busy for that''#or just some general ''well everybody sometimes feel a bit more like a boy or girl or neither or whatever right? thats normal''#''why is Percy genderfluid'' well a.) pun for both terminology reasons [fluid. water. hah] and fish reasons [see: clownfish transgenderism]#b.) percy only sometimes being a girl can explain why his hosting of Nekhbet wasn't totally meshing #like it was enough that it Worked and didnt end up with Percy being comatose or anything but they were side-eying each other the whole time #also percy having fish genderfluidism is funny specifically for all the scenes where he's with like the Hunters or Amazons or etc #Hunters/Amazons/etc: We're an all girl group | Percy: I HAVE NEVER FELT MORE MASCULINE IN MY LIFE

"go to palestine and see how they treat you" okay. i did. they treated me like normal. i'm palestinian and queer and they treated me just fine. but you know where i was treated like shit for being queer??? the u.s. of fucking a.

#i hate that argument “go to palestine and see how they treat you” because like lol. im a queer palestinian #palestinians are very queer #many of my palestinian friends and even family are queer or queer supporting #because we're educated. palestinians are extremely educated because we use knowledge as a tool of our liberation #and bc we're educated we are also accepting of queer identities #like seriously man. if you genuinely think all palestinians are homophobic then you've got some extreme racism problems #palestine #free palestine #that being said obviously there are homophobia problems in palestine #and all around the world #palestine isn't special with the homophobia #but we gotta be normal about this guys. we don't have time for queer liberation because we're too busy fighting for our basic human rights #we can work on queer liberation once palestine is freed

always enjoyed the Chess Set In The Foreground perspective framing used here

now also noting like, huh, a chess set in a general store just visited by marigold competitors who killed one of their guys and are now on the way back from their rendezvous point w/suppliers

#and now to take a big sip of ''nothing suggests lackadaisy ft. people stuck / things repeating / death begetting death''#not like i suppose we're going to be hit with ''& then mordecai and viktor sat down at the defiance field office for every passing gangster #played chess and then went and properly slaughtered the lackadaisy crew and arbogasts at the funeral home / barn w/car-sized holes''#good reminder though that Viktor Is Now Active....left off with elsa managing to give him a phonecall; for good measure #lackadaisy #i have no lengthy Mitzi Mordecai Murder Mystery Musings posts for today (b/c not enough fresh musing insights) but no prommies #epiphanies are on their own schedule #quite the chess piece arrangement seen there too lol. can't tell if there's any Classic Configuration in the game b/w viktor & mordecai #not a chesshead and never was lol strategy games??? who's that #or i'll play them but not strategically. invented Flick Chess for indoor recess in elementary school #you flick a piece across the board and whatever you knock off the board = you took those pieces lmfao #though not like that has Zero strategy. thinking of my day enjoying tiddlywinks research #imagine my delight revisiting all this material like oh yeah the little pic of freckle tiddlywinking #let's squop; boys #i'm also supposing that chess sets? checkers sets? and etc. would be common general store features; like phone usage....real general....#but like; what; are we expecting this Not to bring a response from marigold lol #got the nervous twitch but they're like ''ah it's fine. cost of doing business''

2024 Tumblr Top 10

How it works: Share your top 10 tumblr posts from last year! Visit this site, scroll down to "Find your Tumblr Top 10," type in your username, and select 2024. When you get the results, simply click "Share to Tumblr" and you'll get an auto-generated draft for a post with links and previews. If you want, make any adjustments you see fit. (For example, I've swapped stats for descriptions because that feels more fun to me. 🤷‍♀️)

1. March 24, 2024

Pretty sure this is the real dialogue...

2. January 1, 2024

Me, before the holiday break: Look at all this free time ahead of me! I can do so many things, get so much done! Me, now: Well....

3. October 19, 2024

I will never be over this kiss

4. April 28, 2024

Season 4: parallel statements of love and devotion

5. April 7, 2024

Their last terrified moments in their first home. Their first brilliant and joyful moments in their new home.

6. September 6, 2024

No more wasted moments.

7. April 14, 2024

For anyone who ever wanted to look at this scene without the credits obstructing their view.

8. May 5, 2024

"You are now my husband." / "You may kiss your husband." / "Carlos, this is from your husband."

9. August 25, 2024

The wide shot is beautiful. But I would’ve loved a close-up. So here we are, zooming in as best we can.

10. January 3, 2024

Can’t stop thinking about the way Carlos smiles in these scenes

Honorable mention to this one, which would have made the cut if I'd limited things to just image posts:

September 22, 2024

TK and Carlos: “husband”

Tagging always gives me anxiety because I'm sure I'm forgetting people. So, let's start off with an OPEN TAG and…

no pressure tagging: @strandnreyes @reyesstrand @carlos-in-glasses @guardian-angle22
