realllllly hate this whole “almond mom” phenomenon and how it’s become so normal for people to post videos making fun of their moms for their disordered eating habits. like obviously your mom is really struggling with her relationship with food and u think it’s funny and okay to post her struggle publicly to places like tiktok where millions of other people can shame and degrade her for her food and lifestyle choices (that are not really her “choices” bc she has a disorder!!!) it’s sickening bc obviously ur mom needs help healing her relationship with food and u think it’s just some silly little trendy phrase and are so eager to subject ur own mother to that type of public humiliation!!!!!! in what world would this make things for u and/or her any better, like it could only make her feel more insecure to know how many random people are judging how she eats and lives
#and an ‘almond mom’ is supposed to mean a mom that pushes her disordered habits onto her own children NOT mom with an ed or mom on a die#*diet#btw this is coming from someone with an almond mom#ive watched her struggle my whole life and she did push those habits onto me growing up and she STILL does to this day#literally today we went to the beach and she made several disorded comments to me#but i would never think to post her and what she eats/says bc it’s a very real problem for her and it would only make her feel worse about#herself.#wheres the humanity anymore#sorry fhis topic just gets me really heated i get sick to my stomach seeing like ‘what my almond mom eats in a day’ esp when the mom is#acting like she doesnt want to be recorded/is uninterested/unaware#like if people want to share their experiences with their almond moms to heal from their trauma like thats fine thats great but dont post ur#literal mother and her disorder for the entire world to see like wtf idk just grates me

the machine.
a comic about being a 'creator' online.
creative notes:
#in light of recent online 'success' i feel like this may come off as ungrateful#just wanna say that all the comics i make in this series are written about experiences i felt in 2022#which was a rough year personally and creatively#and i very luckily don't feel this way anymore#and this also isnt to shame anyone who DOES feel this way#its easy to start to feel like all you are is a vending machine of art#and like thats all you are to people#theres nothing human to you#it can be a bit of a pit#and on some level this damage is self inflicted but social media really doesnt help that feeling#this wont work for everyone but having friends around you who you can talk to about stuff that ISNT art#going outside for dinner#maybe walking around#its good for when you need that feeling to go away even a bit temporarily#youre a human being#not a mindless content creation machine#and i hope anyone who feels like this now can get to a place where they have a healthier relationship with their own work#good luck to all of you#and thank you for reading#comic art#its 10pm#stillindigo art

Prompt 191
So. Apparently immortality does in fact exist. And is apparently very easily accidentally achieved, if the fact an entire city has it now.
The GIW will be waiting a very long time to be able to drop that ghost shield, because the city doesn’t seem to be dying out anytime soon. Or at all actually. It’s been several generations now.
They might need to request assistance. Maybe before others start to investigate now that vigilantes are becoming a semi-common thing.
#dcxdp#dpxdc#prompts#The ghost shield made it where the ecto wasn’t able to disperse as it came out of the portal & filled the city#Everyone became too ecto contaminated to be able to exit#And just… stopped being able to die permanently or by old age#They’re not exactly humans nor ghosts but something in-between#Aka Liminal as fuck#Technically everyone counts as a meta or alien#They sure aren’t human anymore & all remember the shit the GIW and government have pulled#They’ve opened up trading with the Realms a while ago#They give them living world things that help with obsessions & get seeds or whatever supplies in exchange#Along with training#They all give off necromancing fae vibes#Liminal Amity Park#Danny is Not ghost king

pro endo in the sense that I've studied psychopathology and am well aware that we're all just making up the categories of disorders for insurance purposes and like idk man maybe people can be plural for other reasons I genuinely don't care.
Like yes sure my plurality is trauma-based but I don't give a shit of someone else's isn't it doesn't affect me.
#just tired of seeing anti endo posts on my dash#thats where im at#human beings are weird#psychopathology is weird#i dont care anymore#syscourse#pro endo#endogenic#plurality#actuallyDID

Throws this at you (ノ≧∇≦)ノ ミ ┻━┻
| Trapped |
1/?
Context:
Bill trapped Ford in a bubble, screwing his view of reality. In order to trick Ford, Bill has repressed his memories and manipulated him into believing that he lives with Bill back in the shack where they're both working to complete the 'portal'. Bill's goal here is to get the equation he desperately needed in order to escape Gravity Falls.
An important thing to note is that whenever Ford remembers, the whole scenario resets.
#This is also another old art/video of mine#The Bill design I was using here is old#I recently redesign my Human Bill design so this version of Bill isn't cannon. (in my au lol)#This AU idea came to mind one day where Ford got trapped in a bubble (Like Mabel)#Time moves differently there so for Ford. he was with Bill for months before he slowly started remembering#I have two videos about this AU right now. It was originally supposed to have 4 parts but since I redesign my Bill#he doesn't fit into these videos anymore#I might continue the au through comics or doodles?#This video format is also inspired by Black Kat Draws (on yt and here on tumblr)#I got inspired doing something similar to their video.#gravity falls#book of bill#bill cipher#the book of bill#billford#endlesspaint

this woman tugging the children out of the way/putting herself in front of them as the klingons walk past.. they're just going somewhere do u think they're gonna attack your kids unprovoked? it's such an interesting detail establishing how klingons are perceived by federation civilians but also worf's served on this ship almost a whole season do you shield your kids from him too? did you used to?
#ik i said I was just gonna watch this episode braindead but i can't help it#like youve got this setting where discrimination and bigotry among humans isnt sposed to exist anymore but then#you write these alien characters and have people treat them like That#and then there's the whole layer of racial coding and the abject Mess of that to consider...#and then at the end of the day im thinking about worf surrounded by people who treat him with apprehension just trying to do his job#tlhIngan#ghItlhpu'wIj#klingon ep liveblog

Im about to get controversial.
Out of chrollo, illumi and hisoka, hisoka is canonically the least likely to flirt to get anything he wants, if at all.
A lot of people think he's a natural flirt but I fear I couldn't have disagreed more. He only "flirted" a single time and that was solely to piss off machi, knowing she'd never agree. Hot take? He would've never asked if he knew she'd agree.
Also, bro's the biggest humanphobe in the anime. He keeps his distance from everyone. The only human physical contact he ever made was through fighting people. (If you're a person thats interested in seeing more evidence, I have an entire long thread about it on twitter that I do plan on posting here soon)
so u cannot give me 1 reason for hisoka to flirt with someone at a random bar but chrollo and illumi? i can think of a few.
chrollo, he already canonically flirts to get what he wants. straight up goes on dates gets a suit and shit. he has no reputation among the general public that hes concerned of that isnt the spider. Illumi? He's a manipulator. I HIGHLY doubt he never flirted to get something in his life from people who are too easy to win over. He's someone that wouldn't care what people think of him. He's also anonymous. People have no idea who tf he is anyways. If it affected the zoldyck reputation? Thats a different story.
Hisoka? he would fucking NEVER. Him specifically? HE HAS A REPUTATION. And whats that reputation? That hes an absolute disgusting freak that no one should dare to approach. He kills people. He fights live and makes sure the audience is always disgusted and weirded out by his actions and performances. You look at him and you should immediately look away and pray he hasn't seen you.
So riddle me this. If his entire shtick is making sure everyones afraid of him and avoids him, then why the hell would he get himself a reputation that makes him approachable????
Why would he get himself a reputation that makes you, as a person who only ever heard of him picking people up, want to approach him.
On top of that, I just.. don't see him picking random people up..??? random weaklings that dont even know nen????? he literally treats them like trash that inconveniences his time. You're saying he'd EVER give them the privilege of sleeping with him???
And then you'd say, oh so he'd sleep with strong people! HERES THE THING. Why would he sleep with them..... when he can fight them. Him getting off from fighting comes NOWHERE to actual sex. What people don't understand is that he gets off to killing people and seeing them crumble in front of him when they realize theyre going to die. Torturing people to death. What's... that got to do with like. yknow. actual sex bro 😭😭😭😭😭😭
this turned into a huge rant probably but do you know how genuinely depressing it is seeing a unique character like hisoka that gains lust through FIGHTING and KILLING reduced to. sex addict in fics. Like. be so fucking serious right now. He called himself a FIGHT ADDICT in the manga. Can I see more of him actually spending his time killing and fighting people instead of whatever the hell bros doing with a random npc.
Anyways this is also why I hc him as asexual/demisexual NEXTTTT
#When a fic is so good but they make a hisoka a sex god instead of a murderer. like dear god. Ya Allah. Mercy on me.#can i please get more fics where he absolutely fucking murders people in deranged ways like god (Togashi) intended instead of....#(checks notes) .....sex???#sorry to me this is 1 fanon characterization that i just gag from i cannot physically stomach that shit anymore.#also the way he never touched a single human and is not a touchy person yet the musical made disgustingly touchy with everyone including go#i saw red when i saw that one scene.#thats not fucking hisoka morow thats hekosa pedoro#if togashi wanted him to sleep around he would've so simply and easily made him mention that. Like even leorio said he jacks off.#yet togashi didnt. because HE DOESNT.#HISOKA GET BEHIND ME#anyways asexual hisoka morow canon goodnight everyone#also trans hisoka can we get a little more content of that i know its completely unrelated but pls im starving#i would put the “ill do it myself meme” WHICH I DO I HAVE A DEMI HISOILLU FIC but im so slow at writing fics sobs and throws up#hisoillu#hisoka x illumi#illumi#illumi zoldyck#hisoka#hisoka morow#chrollo#chrollo lucilfer#hxh#hunter x hunter#my post#my analysis

My best friend and I had a call recently---she’s back with her family for a bit helping out with some hometown stuff. As part of the stuff, she’s been going through a (deceased) relative’s scrapbook, compiled in the American Midwest circa 1870-1900 and featuring mostly cut-out figures from the ads of the day.
She talked about how painstaking this relative’s work was. (Apparently the relative was careful to cut out every finger, every cowlick; this was by no means carelessly or hastily assembled.) But she also she talked about how---the baby on the baking soda ad is ugly, it is so ugly, why anyone would clip this heinously ugly illustrated baby and paste it into a scrapbook? Why would you save the (terribly told, boring) ghost story that came with your box of soap?
(Why include these things in the first place? we asked each other. ”There’s a kind of anti-capitalism to it,” she mused.)
And we discussed that for a bit---how most of the images, stories, artists, and ads were local, not national; they’re pulled from [Midwestern state] companies’ advertisements in [Midwestern state] papers, magazines, and products. As a consequence, you’re not looking at Leyendecker or Norman Rockwell illustrations, but Johann Spatz-Smith from down the road, who took a drawing class at college.
(College is the state college, and he came home on weekends and in the summer to help with the farm or earn some money at the plant.)
But it also inspired a really interesting conversation about how---we have access to so much more art, better and more professional art, than any time in history. As my bff said, all you have to do to find a great, technically proficient and lovely representational image of a baby, is to google the right keywords. But for a girl living in rural [Midwestern state] of the late 1800s, it was the baking soda ad, or literal actual babies. There was no in-between, no heading out to the nearby art museum to study oil paintings of mother and child, no studying photographs and film---such new technologies hadn’t diffused to local newspapers and circulars yet, and were far beyond the average person’s means. But cheap, semi-amateur artists? Those were definitely around, scattered between towns and nearby smallish cities.
It was a good conversation, and made me think about a couple things---the weird entitlement that “professional” and expensive art instills in viewers, how it artificially depresses the appetite for messy unprofessional art, including your own; the way that this makes your tastes narrower, less interesting, less open.
By that I mean---maybe the baby isn’t ugly! Maybe you’ve just seen too many photorealistic babies. Maybe you haven’t really stopped to contemplate that your drawing of a baby (however crude, ugly, or limited) is the best drawing of a baby you can make, and the act of drawing that lumpen, ugly baby is more sacred and profoundly human than even looking at a Mary Cassatt painting.
And even if that isn’t the case....there was this girl in [American Midwestern state] for whom it was very, very important that she capture every finger, curl, and bit of shading for that ugly soap ad baby. And some one hundred years later, her great-something-or-other took pains to preserve her work---because how terribly human it is, to seek out all the art we can find that resonates with us, preserve it, adore it.
It might be the most human impulse we have.
#I of course went on a tangent about henry darger because I love darger and he was also pulling/tracing/finding inspiration in local ads#I was also thinking of the scenes in banshees of inisherin where gleeson plays the fiddle in the bar and the woman sings#clearly not professional! nowhere near mozart.#but you know what? those people are making art. they are engaged in the most human thing you can possibly do#my mother once talked about how when she was growing up in the chicago area the irish immigrants would sing and play at parties#and her mother (one generation removed from immigration) would scoff#because who did they think they were! they weren't professionals. they were making a spectacle of themselves.#''and then it died out. no one sings and plays at parties anymore'' she said quietly#celestial emporium of benevolent knowledge

Ever think about how the author of PIDW transmigrated into his most nothing character who only existed to push the protagonist on the “right” path to popularity before dying? Ever think about how he transmigrated into that character from their birth, completely deleting that person from existence, while his own existence as the creator of the world he now inhabits is so thoroughly erased that we readers only know his “real name” as the character’s name? How the only name he carries over from his first life is a shortened version of his innuendo pen name? As if his existence as a person is nothing next to being the author, which is only marginally less nothing by virtue of the job’s one purpose: to make sure a story is following the “right” path to popularity before dying to enshrine that fame/infamy amongst readers?
No? Just me? Ok…
#svsss#human metas mxtx#something something the complete lack of regard for creators of famous works#where in some people’s minds they only exist to create content to be consumed#but are not themselves real people#just a name on a page with no meaning or significance#something something#people get on the fact that sy takes ‘too well’ to pidw#but we know the man’s original name#we know the makeup of his family#we know his class status and that he didn’t go to college#we don’t even know sqh’s name#I don’t think HE knows his original name anymore

What do you mean Nikolai Lantsov was a morally grey character? He was a selfless hero!
Literally Nikolai Lantsov:
Befriended and convinced already disoriented and ignorant Alina that the Darkling was a bigger issue than the First Army and the people turning on Grisha and executing them, a brewing civil war that would most likely happen even if they killed the Darkling, Fjerda and Shu-Han casually invading their territory, etc. That they should abandon negotiations with the Darkling and prepare for war even though the country can't take it. Also, his reasoning that he should become the King? Nikolai: Oh yeah, I'm a bastard with no claim to the throne who has never actually done anything to change Ravka for the better, I was too busy playing pirates. And I just gave the rapist King who doomed this country a nice retirement and more servants to rape, while your friend Genya who he raped gets a trial for attempted regicide, be grateful she will be spared.
"Fouche did not miss the boat: Befriending the revolutionary leader Robespierre, he quickly rose in the rebel ranks. When Fouche arrived in Paris to take his seat at the convention, a violent rift had broken out between die moderates and the radical Jacobins. Fouche sensed that in the long run neither side would emerge victorious."
While Alina and Darkling were watching each other, Nikolai was watching the throne. Darkling got rid of the King and the only legitimate heir for him, so all Nikolai had to do is march into a disbanded army and declare himself a war hero and the King. Nikolai: Maybe we should just abolish absolute monarchy in Ravka because it's 20th century already, some of the countries no longer have it and no one even wants it anymore? Don't be ridiculous. My mother was an oyster and I'm the pearl or something.
"Power rarely ends up in the hands of those who start a revolution, or even of those who further it; power sticks to those who bring it to a conclusion. That was the side Fouche wanted to be on.
At a certain moment, however, he called a halt to the killings, sensing the mood of the country was turning, and despite the blood already on his hands, citizens of Lyons hailed him as a savior from what had become known as the Terror."
Nikolai to the remaining Grisha after the civil war: Right, so I know I used my big guns to slaughter you, the oppressed minority, because you sided with a man who gave you shelter, saved you and was your respected general instead of a girl who was prejudiced against you, never trained, and abandoned you, BUT I need an army. So, here's your pardon and you can once again become serfs to the monarchy who failed you for centuries. Also, the drafting age has been lowered for Grisha and now we're sending unprepared children to missions. Freedom for Grisha? Letting them buy land? Don't be ridiculous. Can't you see I have more important problems to deal with? The Darkling still exists trapped somewhere in the form of a ghost!
If only the author would acknowledge in KoS duology that he has flaws and selfish ambitions. Let him be a complicated character with layers, it's not the end of the world.
#“the draft wasn't mandatory anymore” Where else would the Grisha go? They were still not treated as humans#only thing left was servitude#in other countries getting indentured or killed#shadow and bone#the darkling#grishaverse#aleksander morozova#grishaverse meta#grishanalyticritical#grisha trilogy#nikolai lantsov#alina starkov#siege and storm#ruin and rising#bad writing

I don't care what kind of hotshot future surgeons they have, I can't believe that they replaced all the specials' bones with synthetics, for multiple reasons (some would be difficult and dangerous to remove without damaging important tissue, you need your pelvis/sternum/spine for marrow production, 16 year olds aren't done growing although idk if Dr. Cable cares about that) but now I am imagining 35 year old Tally alone in the wild with the world gone to shit yet again because of and despite of her best efforts staring at her own cast-off 16-year-old skull.
#there's no way they replaced that right. but the Image#this series is a TRIP to reread having read the sequel series#where like. David ditched her when her mental illness wasn't fun and hot anymore I guess#she and Shay have not fixed ANY of their shit#as soon as humanity got its collective mind back we jumped into war fascist surveillance states and evil robots#there are NUKES#and she's like you know what. maybe I shouldn't have overthrown the dystopia regime as a scrappy teen#maybe they had their reasons#like people should have free will but goddamn. this is what you do with it?#uglies

Some of you guys REALLY need to learn the difference between EXPLANATION and JUSTIFICATION because they are BY NO MEANS THE SAME.
#yes this is abt tdp#like sure aaravos was JUSTIFIED in his anger but NOT in ending the world#like i could honestly excuse just killing sol regem but my dude this is not even REVENGE anymore youre just psycho#explanation vs justification#nothing can justify hurting and manipulating innocent ppl- or even ppl who have done bad things too like jfc#we have the prison system for a reason and in-universe it seems a hell of a lot more humane than irl#yes i love leola. yes i understand where aaravos is coming from. no i do not forgive him and im not an apologist.#this has been a psa#i will get off my soapbox now.#tdp#aaravos tdp#the dragon prince#do you understand
