#seeking critique

[bibi-likes-to-draw]

Ok, so I’m planning on doing the fashion animation meme with these guys, so I basically made dress-up dolls of the Bomberman Bros and gave them some outfits.

Any feedback is greatly appreciated!

Here’s the original meme as well as my inspiration!

guy who so desperately tries to find god. who wants to have faith in a higher authority to guide him out of the hole he's in. from the weight of guilt from simply existing, as the person he is. but every time he thinks he's answered his higher calling it turns out he's made the Morally Incorrect choice and his path to goodness and holiness was the road to the devil all along

#now trusting god will give you a way out? there's your real crime!!! #guy betrayed by the protestant promise of a direct connection with god. but is also somehow. joan of arc. #see he never achieves actual martyrdom tho bc he's not allowed to stay dead lmaooo #sam somehow the most unintentionally catholic AND protestant character of all time #dean the atheist who sees religious predestination as the curse it is from the get go. framed as the narrative's Real Moral Authority #but also in the process reifying patriarchal familial power n authority. very very important Value of the Church #i don't think it's that deep. the show's attempt at critiquing christianity. but the way it reinforces christian cultural values??? #'religious predestination and absolute faith in a higher authority...bad' #nice nice ok tell me more? #“so you should put your faith in family. in your patriarch (big brother)” #????????? #the thematic incoherence of it all. it's like the world's stupidest puzzle box to me. i can't leave it alone. #sam = maybe i can find god thru following my destined path. wait oh shit. #cas = maybe i can find god thru rebellion and seeking my own destiny. wait oh shit. #dean = god is fucking dead and me i also feel not so good #the “guy who so desperately wants to find god parallel” <- me coming out as a secret sastiel fan #both of them...finding god in de-[sniper on the roof kills me in one shot] #spn bible studies #j.txt

Tumblr is way chiller than Twitter for sure but sometimes I see a post and I'm like. Y'all DO remember this is a block game, right? You're not gonna get legitimately pissy and passive-aggressive over characters doing things in a block game, RIGHT???

#i talk #qsmp talk #Chatter: Jaiden don't do this— twitter will cancel you! #The rest of us in chat: Why should she care about anything Twitter says #People on frickin twitter AND tumblr: *whining about Jaiden* #LIKE BRO YOU CANNOT BE SERIOUS LMFAOOOOOO #fandom wank #I'm gonna start unfollowing people #not even just for bad opinions I'm just tired of seeing people being mean and bitter #I'm just here to have fun I don't want to constantly see whining #Critique characters and stuff all you want that's part of the fandom experience but some of y'all are so damn mean for no reason lmao #Touch grass and seek therapy #I know me posting this is part of the ''too many people complaining'' problem but Jaiden's my gal I am a little bit annoyed by that #Again: character critique is fine #but sometimes it's just so passive-aggressive and like. written like the character did a personal attack on YOU #<- the last tag is the most important point here I think

#Seeing the dune part 2 american centric red carpet and as a devoted aficionado of the books and yk a moroccan person here are my 2 cents #Dune was one of the few Western works inspired by MENA culture that that felt genuine and respectful #But ofc despite the profound symbiosis with Middle Eastern and North African culture evident within the pages of the novels #the movie adaptation lack of substantive representation from these communities both in on-screen portrayals and within production roles was #very much disappointing in part 1 and i doubt there are any change now #While drawing inspiration from the Amazigh peoples of Algeria and Morocco #the film barely skims the surface of its MENA influences leaving substantial potential untapped #Herbert openly acknowledged the profound impact of Islam and MENA culture on his noveIs #from the metaphorical representation of Spice as oil #to the allegorical parallels drawn between the occupation of Arrakis and real-world MENA geopolitics #By marginalizing Arabs from the narrative fabric of Dune the essence of the story is being undermined particularly its anti-colonial core #the irony of this is kiIIing me because this was a direct resuIt of us impérialism on the middIe east #But the reality is that Dune is an American production tailored for an American audience so it makes sense for it to be what it is now #a big production running from its original essence #What adds to my disappointment is the fact that I liked Villeneuve's adaptation of Incendies and I had what you call foolish hope hfhg #Dune feIt Iike a squandered opportunity to authentically depict the cultural milieu that inspired it #Given the narrative's inherent anti-colonial themes #the omission of Arab and North African voices dilute its message if any of it is even left #without representation from Arabs and Amazigh people the cultural essence becomes another appropriated resource watered down to an aestheti #rather than serving as a critique of the destructive actions of colonialists seeking power and dominance #the narrative becomes susceptible to distortion and co-option by the very entities it was intended to condemn and hold accountable

my face after looking at all the dog breeds in cas and seeing 5758493748593 doodles but no belgian malinois

#this sounds so pretentious 😭 #but yall have to understand…. i love them i wanted a belgian malinois for this sim sooo bad but NO! #she wants an attack dog trained in bite work and heelwork! BITCH! #also i have a visceral hate for 90% of doodle owners who purposely seek them out. i think they need jail time #i have rly gotten into like the dog community and I’ve learned so much shit. some good. lots of it bad. some of these ppl are wild. #I think getting an Aussie has also catapulted me into it bc I’ve only ever had small ones like a chihuahua and an incredibly demure #jack russell may she rest in peace 😞 #anyway that’s like my new fascination. i love trying to decide which breed is my dream breed LOL #so I’ve been going through cas like a nerd for the last 30 minutes critiquing the traits and appearances they come with #the yorkie is soooo cute….ALSO THEY HAVE BEDLINGTON TERRIRORS !!!! OMG!!!!!!!!!!!! #*personal #rant over. enjoy my tag talk

Yesterday during Pre-FYP pitch:

#asuka speaks #im sorry guys but i just want to tell you guys the critique went well i just need to fix just a tiny little thing in my slides #anyway my lect is happy because it seems that I know very well about my topic and relieved that she doesnt need to worry about me #also im just really happy i get to tell her about some of the cool ads related to smoking like omg im cryingjrkrnem 😭😭😭 #like you guys dont get it this is the first time Im able to nerd out about it and tell her about the ads I stumbled on and have a really- #meaningful discussion about it wagsjshqkial 😭😭😭 #when i said I love psa and ads in general i actually mean I actively seeking out these things on a weekly to daily basis #and sometimes i put it on when i do work lol #yes there's actually compilation of it on youtube lol they even categorised it based on topics #i personally like the british/europeans one i just feel the message were so hard hitting sometimes #but i also love the old anti drug ads from the 80s-90s because of nostalgia lol #i know this seems probably weird but like lmao if anyone ever give me a chance to ask me which top 3 i like #i would give like 10 instead hsksksksk #anyway the fyp topic i picked were about smoking since my trip to the hospital and also my personal observation made me realised- #the initiative the moh are doing for anti smoking awareness is just so outdated lol #i dont despise smoking lol dont worry i just find that whatever the moh is doing isnt working for this era anymore #so i thought it would be neat to incorporate both art and psa because psas aren't suppose to be boring #and that's what consensus thought it is #sorry jdjidjslaoqlql im just nerding out here aldjdkalalql i just want to tell you guys what happened yesterday

[cheddar-baby]

shortening my list of inspirations is really hard because i have like 200+ artists websites bookmarked, i had a period during uni were i was obsessively searching out any and all art i could collect to build my internal library. I made a giant document of every queer artist i could find that is 5 pages long of names.

#one of the worst times of my life was the summer i spent obsessively seeking out art lol #it helped me and made into the obnoxious person who name drops tons of artists in a critique but #ultimately i was in a very bad spot while that was happeing

[leonardcohenofficial]

also i'm sorry but like is the BJ hunnicutt hate in the room with us where is this happening lmfao; also there is a very easy solution to not seeing takes you don't agree with and it is called the block button

#there's been an uptick in posts like this lately and each time i'm like. where is this happening this is something you can easily avoid LOL #i curate all of my tumblr experiences to a T and don't seek out takes that i think are unfounded but. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ #like no shade (not real shade anyways) but like come on all of these takes are dead in the water / critiquing a fifty one year old show #isn't hate / everything that long time mashfolks all know i already say lmfao

can ppl be a little more nuanced abt plastic/cosmetic surgery plssss <3 lmfao

#star song #like y’all know that gender surgeries are a kind of plastic surgery right #and transphobes are happy to jump on the ‘all plastic/cosmetic surgery is unnecessary aesthetic dangerous procedures’ train #in order to demonize top surgery / bottom surgery / FFS / etc #and unrelated to transgender surgeries the way some of you demonize ppl who seek ‘cosmetic’ procedures is like. a little 😬 #anyways #Of Course the field is not above critique but like. just experience nuance!

mean this completely seriously, taking earth science and 2 geography classes this year has made me understand poetry again

#and I would Like to say that it’s making me a better writer bc i’m more conscious of #physical/tangible things #I have written so much bad poetry in my life but one poem I think about a lot #from back when I was a freshman in college & somehow brave enough to seek critique from my poetry professor on stuff I’d written for fun #anyway he didn’t think it was very good (it wasn’t) & the piece of advice that lodged itself in my brain was to Write About The Concrete #so the next poem I wrote started with: #‘​write about the concrete’ he said. / so this is me / writing about the concrete #and then I proceeded to write the most emotionally devastating thing that I had written up until that point #that was entirely centered on sense memories of dating killian in hs LOL #still not good! but it marked a turning point for me #marc.txt

I have maybe 4 books to read before giving an entire fully baked opinion on this but what some AfAm academics have contributed to social activism is tragic. at least in recent years. a lot of different academic conversations seeped online and made shit worse or annoying but this one keeps sticking out to me as of late.

the spreading of afro pessimism in certain circles which of course spreads to the internet and then the rest of the world. I won’t say afro pessimism is wholly responsible for ALL of the shenanigans bc that’s not true but the idea that a philosophy steeped in American exceptionalism and from what I’m coming to understand, misreadings of other black academics, gaining foot on a global scale to define blackness and the world’s relation to blackness…feels very wrong.

it also creates separation when there should be common ground among people with different backgrounds and experiences. and that isn’t always clear cut either bc some people do take and misinterpret and remove cultural context from words or situations which I also don’t like. but I still think there can be understanding and building between groups that suffer oppression. and afro pessimism severs this connection between oppressed people in the global north to help and stand with people in the global south.

I listened to an interview from one of the major proponents of afro pessimism, Frank B Wilderson III and I was so bothered by a lot of it. it felt very America knows best and better about everything including blackness. despite the fact that blackness in the US differs from other countries, African American history differs from other countries with African diasporas so the historical context can’t be applied the same way. and also AfAms tend to feel very insecure in our place in the world which at times has not led to…positive things. the whole fiasco with African Americans arguing with Egyptians about Egyptian history comes to mind. that is its own discussion but the gall you have to have to argue with people about history that’s not even your own? I understand the context of the argument and the African American perspective and I still think it was audacious.

the mindfuck that is being African American gives context to this stuff but it doesn’t excuse it. and I become more bothered by what we’ve put out into the world that ultimately may be black but is also still American and potentially harmful to others.

I just refuse to believe that anti blackness is this necessary social structure to all other societies. i feel like that’s a very narrow view of the world and ignores a lot of ethnic conflicts that are found everywhere and can often be much more intense than racial conflicts. racism against black people is found in many places obviously but I don’t think we are at the immediate lowest social rank in every society. I just don’t buy that.

i think every nation state has its own population of people whether for ethnic/religious reasons, whatever differs them from the accepted main society, that the state wishes to abuse or crush and those are the people worth listening to and seeking solidarity with.

not to mention afro pessimism seems to legitimise race as like biological almost? which I also don’t like? I just don’t believe that black American academics know enough about the world to make these claims that ultimately defines blackness for everyone else or if they do know enough, they’d admit that race is not static and that it has a historical context within the society that it develops. i have many undeveloped thoughts and criticisms on this though.

#i love being African American but I also believe when you love something you critique it and I always hate how bc of how we experience- #American life that creates this smallness within us that leads a lot of us to these identity seeking journeys #we are African descended but we are American and you can’t remove yourself from that worldview!!! You just can’t. the less accepting of this #part of us the more insecurity I see which leads to American worldview points anyway bc your worldview is still narrow #i don’t seek to remove my worldview but I want to expand it and hear from other people and not conclude that my American lens knows all #and I feel embarrassed when I hear my people not wanting to do the same when we are culpable for many of the US’ wrongdoings as well
