*pops out of nowhere because that thread was freaking wild and I still snort every time I'm reminded of it and I need to scream somewhere*

((random brain-worm - remembering that ancient thread where Esie stabbed a dude in the face and then Blake freaking shot him. 

#How did I make myself feel worse and better at the same time? #.......what? #I fell down the rabbit hole on them again. #And I didn't have anywhere else to scream #So no y'all gotta deal with me here again #at least until I get tired or something again and disappear #but for now I SCREM #fear me

((It happened. The brainworm happened. 

Yes, born from an interaction. Every so often my brain latches onto a random visual and won’t let go lol.

*Basically replaces art with gig work cause no one wants my shit and it’s impossible to find people that do* lol 

(To be clear, I don’t mean I’m closing commissions or anything. They’re still open. lol but.. yeah there’s a chance this ‘side-gig’ shit’s literally gonna make me more money, or at make it more consistently, which will add up to more. And I seriously need to start making money at this point. It’s way overdo.)

#tbh probably the most discouraging part of all of this is knowing I probably COULD make some cash/carve out a niche with art #IF I did p*rn. So basically the only way to make money with this shit seemingly would be to sell my soul more or less. #Cause I wasn't one of the lucky few that actually catches on somehow and gets business without doing that. #So now I'm stuck taking boatloads of mind-numbing surveys for pennies. #...although there is another thing I'm trying out/am reviewing for that might pay 10 bucks a gig so that might be a step up

‘you should take in new media to boost inspiration’ *starts a manga from the late 80s*

XD #Also -holy shit its this crap is expensive- #((I'm gon start answering artists or whatever that drop that 'advice' line with 'check yo privilege' lol #((seriously 9 God damn bucks. per DIGITAL copy. 8/ #((and there's over 40 volumes $____$

really need to try and get this shit off the ground again with art crap cause... that’s gonna be the only kind of work I can do for the foreseeable future but I literally don’t even know how lol.  I guess just try to draw and freakin hope RIP 😂💀 In the meantime I’ve changed up how I do Comms now, as in I finally got a damn Ko-fi and holy hell have I finally found how to get around the stupid ‘no shipping address or my account gets frozen’ paypal bullshit?? 

#Unimpressed Megumi stays tho #She is my spirit animal lol

[skygatecreations]

I’ve discovered I’ve been getting notes here (very sparingly, but notes) and I never realized because tumblr’s notifications are super freakin broken so if I have missed anything from anyone for ages, apologies lol

#...pffft... *has to immediately edit this shit cause I accidentally used my 'ooc marker' cause my ass been livin in rp land for ages

[skygatecreations]

NICE

#I'm not even a fan of anything involved here but PFFFFFT LOL

[skygatecreations]

...On one hand I can’t believe I still have that one freakin Megumi pic I drew as my icon, but on the other I still freakin like how she came out and she’s still freakin awesome so 🤷

#I literally only remembered recently that I had/have an rp account for her #It's technically 'have' if tumblr hasn't pulled shenanigans and nuked it #or I'm not forgetting about deleting it myself or something #it's just been inactive for years #I don't think I deleted tho cause I got a url that was super cool/didn't require a bunch of freakin 'x's or some shit lol #and I didn't want to give it up on the freakin off chance I decided to do anything with it #I... actually do wish I could've played with her more. I feel like I might've been able to do okay for her #She could've been super fun as a muse lol #But obv that verse is VERY dead #and I think the few left were more shipping minded and I had/have a very specific ship pref for her so...yeah #Not that I'm allergic to shipping. I'm actually having fun with that sort of stuff now that it's happening for my OC #but Megs I just happened to be picky with and on top my preference wasn't even any of the 'popular' ships

I absolutely adore the ongoing history of the Douglas DC-3, a design born in the early 30’s as the DC-2 passenger plane

Which showed so much potential it was improved into the current DC-3 version just a few years later

Then the US Army Air Corps took notice of the plane, equally liked it, and turned it into quite the formidable military transport, eventually helping win WW2

But her military carrier didn’t end there, as the airframe proved rugged and reliable enough to be turned into a gunship barely 20 years after WW2

Meanwhile enjoying massive success in the post-war civilian market, with so many made they basically became a mainstay of airports all over the world, even somehow turning into a floatplane in the process.

But as the years went on, the type proved to be virtually irreplaceable, so rather than retiring it, many operators opted to upgrade it, ending with a full modernization effort that basically turned the plane into a turboprop

Which was also reflected in its earlier military form, now deadlier than ever

And while some failed yet interesting attempts where made along the way to give the plane other uses, like this long-range three-engine variant

The success of the original design has ensured we will keep seeing them in the skies above long after it turns 100 years, arguably the most remarkable aircraft design of the XX century.

#Ah yes and excellent example of 'if it ain't broke. don't fix it.' #even cooler - every so often. a specific circumstance can still give guys like these a purpose #I believe a few years back I remember hearing about a DC-3 or C-47 that was drafted into impromptu service #shipping in supplies into areas (can remember where but in the States) effected by I ...THINK flooding or something #But the solid. versatile platform able to get in and out in somewhat limited space that these guys provided #can be almost ageless and can still meet needs when push comes to shove. #Good ol goony birds :) #It's sorta like the C-130. unassuming planes but have done EVERYTHING

pops out of the void to screech about kinda sorta replaying rdr1 again and drowning in ALL OF THE FEELS.

About an npc gang. that R* probably didn’t want us to get attached to. But I did and there will never be any turning back.

#I'm having drawing urges but those are as shaky as ever particularly with the hellscape real life is rn #but yeah y'all still gonna have to pry the bollards and the idea they're as much if not more of a fam as John's gang ever was #from my cold dead hands
