portrait study but its kenny
#south park#kenny mccormick#sp kenny#south park fanart#shroomer's art !#shroomer's archives: south park#kenny is quite literally my muse#also its 2 am so it took me quite literally 5 minutes to think of what to caption this only to come up with that#this is actually for one of my classes' final assignment that we were given like 3-4 weeks to do#and i did it in one day lmao#anyways i really wanted to experiment with different texture brushes and a different rendering style#because i dont believe in having a consistent artstyle#my favorite kenny piece to date <3#if i had a nickel for every time i made a drawing of a south park character with an eye straining red-blue color palette#id have two nickels#which isnt a lot but its weird that it happened twice#i actually had to tone down the colors because IT WAS SO RED AND SO BLUE INITIALLY but i think it worked out for the best#cause the orange fits way better with the whole kenny thing#tw: eyestrain

my brother as a beast
#his full pseudonym is grayscale/gray so i made him a grayscale sphinx :o)#i had a little fun with the colors on this one. was a little scared of using the blue outlines but i think it works#he does look kind of gloomy because of his bangs and resting face but hes actually way more social than me#hes talked to more people in his class than i have since i started. god damn#paws are more long and nimble because his fingers are long and lankier than mine#the long fur is a stylistic choice and because he wears thick/baggy sweaters a lot#my art#myart#creature design#character design#graysona#gray#sphinx#beasts#fur#furry art

#not art (yet)#once in a while I look at my prelim sketch and wonder if literally anyone else can read them other than me lmao#Ive returned to sketching in black recently tho... for a Long time I sketched in red. but before that I was doing it in blue#I think doing it this way kinda reminds me of drawing on loose pieces of a4 paper with mechanical pencils#will be nice to have this to chip away at for the foreseeable future. while I do other things also. a not obligation thing#I dont really have the diner experience but I feel like this is. kind of me in last year of high school on yearbook duty#(I was art committee. used it mostly as excuse to skip class with the other art committee kids lmao)(we were all friends)#this would be like. a cafe or a boba place. mostly bc those would have booths or tables tall enough for us to actually draw on#wonder if itd be fun to do a like. art challenge or something like that with this format... like DTIYS but its finishing the same sketch#tbh I only think it's viable bc my sketches are an enigma even to me lmao. esp. prelim/first sketch#would u like that. idk would that be fun for folks#drawing is fun! sometimes. we work towards making it fun more times. Im having fun with this

Trump, not content with picking MAGA pockets and pay-for-play WH schemes, now set on Americans' nest eggs:

The election results show that people who voted for Biden in 2020 didn't vote for Harris in 2024; in 2020, Biden received a record-breaking 81 million votes, whereas Harris, in 2024, has only received 70 million votes so far. If current trends continue, Harris can expect to have gotten about 73-4 million votes.
The election results also show that, contrary to popular opinion, Trump didn't make huge, nation-wide gains with minority voters: in 2020, Trump received 74 million voters, and in 2024, he has received - wait for it - 74 million votes so far. If current trends continue, Trump can expect to have gotten about 77-8 million votes.
Now, I've been seeing people blame marginalised groups for Trump's victory - it's white women voting along racial lines, it's Black, Asian, or Hispanic men voting along sex lines - but I don't think the results actually support that analysis given how small Trump's vote actually increased by (from the Dems or from non-voters?). I think the results show that, while Trump did made some gains, his victory can primarily be attributed to the 7-8 million people who voted for Biden in 2020 but did not vote for Harris in 2024, either because they flipped sides, or, more likely, because they just didn't vote at all...
#the republican vote has always been pretty consistent so i'd be surprised if they picked up a huge number of votes from the dems#i think it's more likely that trump's targeting of working class rural voters helped him get those additional votes#and i think that because (a) it's a trend the republicans have been seeing for years and (b) it was trump's actual campaign strategy#why can't you people just VOTE#vote blue no matter who#uspol#us politics#kamala harris#donald trump

one of my favorite senarios to imagine to put yukio in is sending him 10 years into the future (with the exwires usually) and everyone from their class are like chill adults including himself working their boring ass exorcist job and hes trying to assert dominance over them as the teacher™ but they're all like bro why so serious?
#somehow in my future au i accidently made only the boys active exorcists im so sorry to all the women in aoex#they all passed but i think shiemi and izumo would leave to persue other passions but still be in ajacent fields#like shiemi still runs her exorcist shop#idk what izumo does maybe she still is an exorcist but shes on leave trying to figure out what she wants to do with her life#cuz so much of her adolescence was focused vengence for her family i think she would be kinda lost as an adult#ive said this a bunch of times but rin isnt actually an exorcist for the same reason izumo isnt#ive been kinda muddy on my own timeline but either he passed and left or he dropped out of school and ran away#i think hes like an independent demon slayer like a contract worker#so he still is basically an exorcist but not sanctioned by the vatican like as part of a mercenary guild or something#but he can still take exorcist missions if he wants to but usually its not worth it so he just helps out yukio or bon on their missions#i think after being a literal terrorist yukio got demoted and lost his license for a bit so hes still the same rank as he is now#but now hes medicated and he went to therapy#he has like no memory of highschool to almost a concerning degree and hes generally pretty muted but is still well liked#bon had a completely normal exorcist experience against all odds actually so did koneko except koneko went back to the myoda#and then shima got scouted for his amazing spy skills and works overseas#sorry shima ur not allowed to be an idol that might be the trigger for the bad end#anyway i think teen yukio would hate adult yukio because he thinks hes not allowed to be normal and happy#this is like the 4th time ive made this post like i said its one of my favorites#the reverse is rin going to the past and like tutoring the exorcist class#nobody wants to do yukio psychoanalysis but me so i gotta step up to the plate#jk theres a lot of good yukio fanfics#blue exorcist#ao no exorcist#yukio okumura#rin okumura

Kaikaina Grif doesn't have a name. Well, she does. okay not really. More like a title. Kaikaina. A word meaning younger siblings, younger sister. That's who she is, who she's always been, always will be. When mom wasn't bothered enough to soothe her cries it was Dexter who would hold her, his chubby hands holding onto her little fingers, he wasn't much older than her by any means and still he held her and whispered to her as she cried, my Kaikaina, my sister. So Kaikaina is who she became, the little sister toddling after her brother, following him all the way to a box-canyon in the middle of nowhere. Because she's his sister and that's all she's ever been. And when her teammates call her sister she wants to correct them, thats a title, a noun, not a name. But then she stops and wonders. Does she have a name?
#rvb#red vs blue#kaikaina grif#hi i wrote this under like 5 min cause im bored in class and missing the grif siblings#thinking of kai never having her own identity other than being grifs sister#both in the show and outside of it#how they just named her sister in hawaiian#how she felt so lonely without dexter she joined a war to find him again#idk they're very precious to me i could probably say more if i wasnt supposed to be working on a presentation rn
