#thats a necessity

[sickviking-fr]

With the attention Disney is getting recently, a resurgence of posts bemoaning their live action remakes and a return of The Muppet Post, I feel the time is right to share again my idea for a Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood live action remake featuring:

Lust, played by Miss Piggy

Envy, played by Pepe the Prawn

Pride, played by Fozzie Bear

Greed, played by Rizzo the Rat

Father (and Van Hohenheim) played by Sam the Eagle

Gluttony, played by The Swedish Chef

Sloth, played by Sweetums

Wrath, aka Fuhrer King Bradley played by Liam Neeson

#yes i DO accept constructive criticism #yes DO suggest any alternates #yes PLEASE tell me who you would cast as the other characters #WHO would play Scar?? #fullmetal alchemist #fullmetal alchimist brotherhood #fma #fmab #fma: brotherhood #fma:b #muppets #the muppets #ed NEEDS to be played by a human character to really set home the point of Sam the fucking Eagle as his dad #thats a necessity

terror codependency chart

#🐉 #you may question why goodsir is so high up in the decapitation zone. well thats because what he did with that monkey #convinced me that hes the kind of freak whod keep bits of a dead loved one in a jar and think it romantic. #as for the rest some of them were easy (jopson. hickey.) and others were a nightmare #especially jfj and silna who i decided is only less codependent than some people here by necessity #anyway. apologies if your favorite cold boy isnt on here but i couldnt squeeze all 129+ guys in so i had to be selective. #the terror

Creators I love you but it's time to wake up

Among rumors about our tumblr user data being sold off to Midjourney/Generative AI, recent Extremely transphobic events (that have been ongoing) coming to a head, another extremely concerning internet censorship bill being pushed in upper levels of government, and a general air of frustration over how the site belongs to and is operated by perhaps the second stupidest CEO (second only to twitters own) of our age, I'm very done with the last few vestiges of what the old internet held for artists.

And if you're reading this, you probably are too.

I know we're tired. We are all tired. It is not always viable to pack up shop and move, again and again and again.

From tumblr to twitter to anywhere else we've ever grown up posting, things no longer work. Our audiences are kneecapped by aggressive and hostile algorithms, our reach is abysmal - if we aren't shadow-banned or silenced for one (transphobic) reason or another, we're thrust into an ever growing pit of hostility where the only thing that drives clicks is fighting and contention.

We're tired. We're so fucking tired. We aren't businesses, we aren't content mills, we cannot keep this pace that modern social media has set for us, to wring every ounce of creativity out of us to profit from and leave us rotting.

The key to staying afloat here, and I cannot stress this enough, is to stay connected to your peers.

Pack up and move as units if you must. Exodus from the sites that are killing us. Push your entire friend group of artists to move from one site to the next that promises you a kinder experience.

Art drives movements, it drives change, it is all that encompasses being human. If you take that away from the shitty places, they will be left with nothing but a cesspit of inhumanity and the people who follow you will be more incentivized than ever to move with you.

Yes, this is terrifying. There are no guarantees. There never was, and never are, and never will be.

But stay connected. Stay human.

Support each other and be willing to hold hands and jump when we all - as a group - need to jump from the flames we're all trying to convince ourselves wont kill us before rescue comes.

Rescue isn't coming, rescue will be found hand in hand with each other. I'm offering you my hand, please take it. There's always a new start, there are always helping hands reaching for you. You have to look up from the doom-scroll long enough to see and take them.

#art communities #art community #teo talks #sorry I have a Lot of opinions about posting art online I've been doing this since I was 14 and I'm 28 this year #I have watched the rise and fall of social media titans and you have to understand the ONLY thing that will keep you afloat #is keeping connected to your peers #we have to move as units and we have to stay together and we have to support each other #your following is not stability. your friendships are. #thats why you hear about networking. thats ceo talk for friendships. connections. #you have to have enough connections to build your own support web on the chance that everything goes to shit. yes its hard work. it sucks. #but it is a necessity. twitter isn't getting better. its not going back to how it was. neither is DA or tumblr. its not happening. #If you put all your eggs in one or two precarious baskets and both fall. you will be shit out of luck! thats reality #there is hope to be found but you have to be realistic and understand that you NEED to build up a presence elsewhere. even if its hard. #I want to help you if I can!!!! bluesky is a really solid twitter alternative!!! #ive heard good things about cohost as a tumblr alternative!!!! #sheezy and inkblot are both indie sites currently being developed by and for other creatives. support them! #they won't be perfect until - and UNLESS - you do! #anyways sorry I will step off my soapbox now Im just frustrated with the state of everything

more formal photos coming soon but I just finished the full trio and I love them!!

#i made poor choices on Stitch but worked with what i had #my art #ooak doll #doll custom #also in case you cant tell Stitch and Seam are siblings/made by the same guy and Pupet was made by another character entirely #which is why they look so different #Stitch and Seam were made to be flawless living porcelain doll creations so theyre fancy and ornate #and pupet is just a living ragdoll made out of necessity for a daunting task but still loved thats why hes more homespun #rotating the lore of stitch in the ditch in my mind #also dont mind that the story is called stitch in the ditch despite a character being named stitch #its not about him falling into a hole #its just about fun sewing wordplay

[pot stirring] ?? 👀👀

🥰❤️.

the next installment for idiots & idioms series!! specifically the beginning and rise of Vegas's cooking youtube, tentatively named after the idiom 'to stir the pot'

so I've been blocked on this fic for. AGES. I always knew Vegas was going to end up with a wildly popular cooking YouTube, because that's absolutely hilarious to me and he deserves a world where he gets paid to make stupid fancy meals while a lil row of hedgehogs watch and his biggest concern in the world is next week's grocer list instead of stupid fucking mafia errands. my problem was that there was just like. zero narrative drive. what was the POINT, y'know?

but then

Pete

(PETE MY BELOVED)

who fucking hates masking

and would absolutely positively hate Vegas's original youtube persona. I shant spoil the whole fic, but tl;dr is Vegas gets equally hooked on and frustrated by his initial internet validation, Pete is just frustrated by it, then Pete posts the video of him and Macau bitching out Kinn and Kim's terrible cooking and Vegas discovers the joys and wonders of ✨ internet toxicity ✨ and thrives while sniping insults at Kinn and Kim online instead of literal sniping ❤️

WIP game!

#fic: gone fishing #messy summary of this but thats fine #my only awkwardness left is figuring out the best way to format this particular story #its threatening to be. LONG. #but honestly the true awkwardness here #is that vegaspete fuck out their domestic drama #AS THEY SHOULD!!! #except #this is #a socmed series #im already dealing with twitter and now youtube #i am NOT adding onlyfans to this #i dont have the mental space for twitter and can barely deal with adding youtube out of sheer necessity #add third one and i will #explode #anyways enough of me being dramatic i shall go drink a glass of water #TY FRIEND ❤️❤️❤️❤️

People will be like 'oh you go to uni, you must be smart!' mate, I've never met people with less common sense than uni students. Though what else would you expect when you stick a load of sleep deprived, overwhelmed, young adults together

#Uni shenanigans #yeah sure i can write you an essay no problem will it make an grammatical sense? no. #is that because i wrote it in the early hours of the morning the day of the dealine? absolutely. #do i understand the necessity of a balanced diet and throwing away out of date food? yes. #does the majority of the student populace ignore this? also yes but thats to be expected when poor budgeting leads to low grocery funds #listen am i well aware of the importance of proper time management? of course i am #and yet i continue to make the dumbest decisions imaginable causing myself unbearable levels of stress #because i am an adult child left alone to my own devices and #school prepared me real well for taking exams but not for taking care of myself in a way that isnt at least a lil self destructive #wouldnt believe the kinds of things i deem optional when i have a task to do cus putting myself last has been hammered into me my whole life

"As the windows smashed in, Robin shut his eyes and remembered his mother's face. She smiles. She says his name." babel's ending ended me so to speak so i drew it out

truly though, i am comforted by the idea of regis being autistic because… consider. he’s been alive for hundreds of years and has been through so much turmoil and has had to commit to self-improvement and self-control and all of these ideals and principles. and in the same process of that, he had to examine himself—take a good look in the mirror, as the saying goes… though it may not be quite accurate in this case—why he faced these insurmountable issues in the first place which instigated and excerbated his vices in the first place. “treat the cause, not the symptoms.”

and the cause was that he didn’t like himself. he only drank to escape… from himself. so he could be a different self, one that others accepted, but one who very quickly became a terrible person—because that version of himself had none of his ever-so-dislikable and aggravating and unrelatable traits: his know-it-all-isms, his philosophizing, his overthinking. his lack of understanding the social cues he was surrounded by. everything that would “spoil the party.” the libation was the symptom of insecurity and disbelief that anyone could truly accept him for the way he is, unaltered, sober.

and even with all of this time, possibly the span of an entire human life, spent working on himself, spent trying to understand others—he learned two things.

firstly—after all this time—he cannot change himself. he has to live with, and possibly embrace, the parts of himself that long ago made him impossible to gain social approval. even if now, he is living a solitary and even somewhat isolated life.

(note: yes, he only spends three months out of the year nearby fen carn, and the rest of the year he lives in dilingen, in a city—while i don’t doubt that he was an important pillar of the community, with his altruistic tendencies, he also never mentions having any close friends in dillingen. he decided in one night to join geralt’s quest. he didn’t worry that anyone from dillingen would miss him…)

secondly—even after all this time spent trying to have a better relationship with and to fit in with society (and even though he’s become, if i may say with modesty, very good at it, exceptionally good at it), it’s still a very intentional factor of his life, something that takes a carefully prepared set of behavior and mental work. it’s still “mimicking.” again, the span of an entire human lifetime put into understanding people and society and he still doesn’t. there’s still much he does not understand, does not agree with, and even ridicules. he has integrated into the society, but he does not innately understand it. he only understands it through his uniquely analytical perspective, the perspective of an outsider trying to understand.

#the one post that goes: ‘you fool! masking IS my special interest!’ #also his damn sensitive hearing. and his begrudging acceptance of the sun: ‘an unpleasant necessity’ to adapt to it #regis digging himself out of the grave: ​‘is it always so fucking bright out here?’ #txt #c: regis #at the october banquet. #regis and milva being holding back and being reserved at first but when their special interest gets brought up. … #by the way do you want a milva autism post. because i will also talk about her #do i dare maintag this. well whatever #the witcher books #emiel regis #the only thing i can think of at the moment thats not autistic of him is that he understands figurative meanings very well #and is not very direct. quite the opposite #however i think i can overanalyze this to the point where it does assist my argument

Having demand avoidance in a medical setting is literally hell. Like, patient autonomy is already absolute ass. It's only made worse when doctors CONSISTENTLY tell you what to do and act like you HAVE to do it instead of consulting with you first like normal fucking people.

#also “”“”medical necessity“”“” is NOT an excuse here. #ive been to plenty of doctors that thoroughly discuss a range/timeline of treatment and explain it IN DETAIL before saying “thats what i- #-recommend“ instead of just going ”okay were gonna do this. im gonna explain the prep to you a mile a minute and if you have any follow up- #-questions im just gonna repeat part of my spiel with no clarification. and if i cant answer your questions too bad :)“ #not to mention how many doctors just force you to do things that WILL NEVER WORK #like one therapist tried forcing me to do emdr when i was only IN HER TOWN for the summer and i had no internet access when i was at college #im pretty sure emdr takes several weeks to work and i did not have that kind of time available to me. i couldnt just drop out bc of ptsd. #also the number of times ive had to decline an ESI is stupid. I've already had 2! they didn't work! i had a bad reaction to the meds! #why am i being forced to do it again? #also back surgery. i cant do that because i am a white trash rural kid and our home (which we built ourselves) CANNOT be accessible enough #for spinal surgery recovery. but i went to the surgeon and he was like “thats valid! and also surgery literally wouldnt help you so idk why- #-they sent you here.“ : l It's cool to be right all the time lol #its like. no wonder i developed medical demand avoidance after so much traumatizing and malpracticy bullshit in my life #demand avoidance #medical demand avoidance #chronic illness burnout #chronic illness #chronic pain #medical tw #ptsd #disability #medical neglect #medical trauma #vent #this might be too personal. if i do delete it ill have it rb'd on my boar-deer-whitetrashbutterfly blog first #idk i just havent really been able to find anyone else talking about this specific effect of being chronically ill/disabled.
