#you're soooo right about this

[redfurrycat]

it absolutely sends me how visibly confused maverick is when cain tells him he's been recalled to top gun. man is either as dumb as a bag of rocks labelled 'gay nepotism' or has been squeezing in acting lessons between deployments.

the very first words out of shih-na's mouth to lang after admitting to being a spy and a murderer are flirting with him. you really have to respect a girlie who shoots her shot even in her darkest hour

my greatest achievement in DA2 is maxing out Carver's friendship

and all it took was begrudgingly kissing a little templar ass in act 1 because Carver didn't want to plan a prison break if my Hawke got his ass arrested for being stupid.

sometimes looking at like Self Help Strategies lists for the symptoms I'm having is always just like:

thing that I already do

thing I have tried 10 times

thing I already do

thing that I don't have the money to do

thing I already do

thing I've been doing since I was 10yrs old to no avail

thing that is impossible given my situation

thing that doesn't apply to me

thing that I already do

thing I have already tried

hrmm, oh wait, maybe finally- OH, yeah.. okay. thing that I already do but it was just phrased slightly differently

thing I have already done

Can we talk about how dan heng canonically eats a lot and march teases him?

YESYESYES. I think about that sooo often actually.

Tbh I like to think that M.arch is both an enabler and a teaser to him. M.arch seems like the type to buy food just because it's good looking and she's a lover of cute things. Like, often from themed restaurants I'm thinking, but also just about everything that looks good enough to get a good picture out of it. And of course, she doesn't eat it all. Sometimes M.arch doesn't even touches the food, and she does it without guilt, because she knows, and she says it out loud, that D.an H.eng will have no problem with eating it, even if he already had his own meal. And D.an H.eng, even if he feels the urge to defend himself, knows that he'd very much like to have those extra portions, having that big dragon appetite. He doesn't apreciate a lot what his friend has to say as he eats. "Wow, you really can eat a lot!" "If you're still hungry after that I can get you some more, don't worry!" That last one is very much with teasing intent, but it isn't a lie. Sometimes, D.an H.eng is indeed still hungry even after having the portion of both of them. And though she does it with a side of giggles and lighthearted poking, M.arch makes sure that he has his fill.

talking to my younger brother about the way my parents may or may not treat me differently from him and our other brother, in terms of like. when I say shit about politics, or am complaining about stuff at work, and they tell me to chill. I just think that my parents and my one brother to a lesser degree, just find me fucking annoying lol

@ ur recent post about a love that looks like violence, i def understand it for both sex and nonsexual intimacy. like, a love that digs its nails into you and leaves you with scratches or cuts when even when you have to pull away, if only briefly. a love that leaves strings of hickeys that bruise and hurt when you touch them. a love that wrenches at you, squeezes your hand so tightly that your bones creak, even on a calm summer day. a love that bleeds bright for you, bleeds you bright for itself, because it doesn't stop loving you even long after it's started to hurt. or something.

urghhh you literally get it and this is worded so beautifully... bruises and scrapes you can press at and feel real and know that someone was there, that this was always meant to happen how lucky you are that the now has come after all this waiting, everything ive ever loved has claw marks in or something, i want to be held so tightly i can see the fingerprints

cross-generational friendships have been so important and formative and crucial to my adulthood. and i'm not talking about "oh I'm in my 20s and nearly all my friends are in their 30s ha ha ha" [true], I'm talking about "I labored side-by-side with people in their 40s, 50s, and 60s and became friends with them."

one such friend and I went to a funeral today to support a third friend and it really reaffirmed how important these relationships have been to me and how good they are for keeping perspective and taking advice from people with more experience than you.

tomorrow I'm going on a walk and then getting lunch with an old boss-turned-friend/mentor who's old enough to be my mother (like, literally her oldest son is my age) and I'm looking forward to it so much. having friends who you can bond with but also learn life lessons from is such a gift and it makes me lament my current work situation (everyone on my team is within a 3-year age range).

talking to a friend about getting back into art and i think the #1 most important piece of art advice i could ever get or give is just "figure out what is FUN to you"

like i think there is sooooo much emphasis on how to build SKILL in art but a lot of it really treats art like a job or like video game grinding, like it's this thankless job that you have to work at in order to reach a Threshold and i know it's not EASY to make yourself have fun but like

imo a solid 70% of the reason i create art is because the Act of Drawing is fun to me. it's fun problem-solving and planning and putting down lines and playing with colors and tools. it's fun to depict little scenes in my head or to create outfits or to find ways to fill the canvas. never forget that creating can be fun. sometimes it's hard and sometimes you have to battle through your own blockades to get there but the ultimate goal should always be to ENJOY it, to find what you enjoy doing and then do it forever. improvement will follow enjoyment.

i think especially with all the debate about ML image generation it's more important than ever to embrace FUN. if you're only focused on the end result it's so easy to get in your own head- to think about what doesn't look good or what skills you don't have yet or to compare yourself to other artists. but photography didn't kill the art of drawing and AI won't either because, simply put, there will always be people who want to do the physical act of making art because it's fun to do! using paints and markers, splashing colors around, doing shitty pen doodles, using the symmetry tool in your art program to do abstract mandalas that are just squiggles formed into patterns. do art like you're 5 and you've been handed markers to pass the time. do art like you're bored in class and you're keeping your brain entertained by drawing stick figure comics in the margins. do art like an absent thing, do art because it satisfies your brain. the goal is not to make something beautiful and perfect, the goal is to make something because your hands need to make and your body needs to make.
