#But I did it anyway 🙈

This is a little fandom etiquette 101 for anyone that's new to fan spaces. You categorically DO NOT need the author's permission to create fanworks. You don't need to reach out and ask them. It's actually weirder if you do.

You especially should NEVER ever ask them if it's okay to create fanworks for commissions or donations because we are then obligated by copyright law to seek you out and issue a DMCA.

Got it? Good.

Now, on an entirely unrelated note, per the ask I just definitely didn't get:

ID: a looping gif of Mariah Carey donning sunglasses as she proclaims, "I can't read suddenly. I don't know."

#aaaaaaaaaah #I don't know why younger fans feel the need to ask permission for everything #fandom isn't about the authors #it's about how you have fun with it #anyway #sorry I did not see your ask friend #tumblr must have ate it.... #🙈🙉🙊

its so funny hbomberguy uploads a video like once every millenia, but when he does he manages to send every person he scrutinizes into oblivion, never to recover

#hbomberguy #not to be a hater but.... 🙈 i fucking hate james somerton and internet historian so much YESSS #internet historian is an edgy right-wing dickhead that makes edgy 4chan videos and hosts racists (including himself) #and james somerton is THE WHITE CIS GAY MAN QUEERS ARE WARNED ABOUT #plagiarism aside he prioritizes white gay men as the worlds biggest victims CONSTANTLY; and invalidates nbs women and poc #the video he did on jeffery dahmer made me want to scream in anger bc he goes on and on about gay men and how women dont care about them #but doesnt fucking mention a god damn thiny about how he targeted black gay men over white bc he knew he could get away with it #like he talks about queers but he only gives a shit about white gay men. thats it. #anyway sorry im tired and bitter but byeeee to these youtube bitches pls dont come back lmaao

I can't really call them process vids bc it's just the layering and some late stage edits but there you go!

#still copping out on hands drawing 🙈 #also i found a good use for the submarine base render i did ages ago 👀 #it's flipped upside down the pool is now the skylight 🙃 #I'd use obs to share the actual drawing process #but I'm so in and out of apps all the time its not a smooth recording #anyway good morning! ☕ #process #my art #mass effect #my process

I've been reading ZoSan doujinshi recently and I don't know. Some of them have great plots (Pirate Ship Noah) and are told absolutely fantastic, but in terms of the characteristics I think their roles should be reversed bc Zoro is always the strong, confident, sexually experienced guy, and Sanji comes across as the shy damsel in distress lol. I mean I see where it comes from. Sanji in general is more sensitive and emotional than Zoro (tho let's be honest, everyone is) and he is a romantic, thoughtful, sometimes soft young man whereas Zoro is loud and boisterous in a fight, loves to be intimidating and is strong and reliable and arrogant and self-confident.

But regarding the fact that Sanji is the one who flirts with every female who can't run up a tree quick enough, and Zoro never showed interest in anyone romantically and can be seen blushing when a woman gets too close to him (e.g. Hiyori), I think it should rather be like this between the two:

I repeat, I see where the reversed characterisation comes from, but Zoro being the (sexually) introverted one seems more accurate to me and I wonder if there is fanfiction/dojinshi out there which depicts them this way

#Whoaaaa where the hell did THAT suddenly come from?!! #Seems like ZoSan is my guilty pleasure for now lol #I don't even ship them 😂😂 #But I've always loved their dynamic and I genuinely love both of them #Sanji has always been one of my favourite characters of One Piece anyway #Although I wish he would recover from being a comic relief already with his constant nosebleeds and all #His Backstory and all on WCI and with Pudding brought a depth to him I wish zoro would have 🙈🙈 #One piece #roronoa zoro #vinsmoke sanji #one piece zosan #zoro x sanji

PSA (in case anyone cares) user dribs-and-drabbles is now watching Only Friends!

I repeat, user dribs-and-drabbles is now watching Only Friends.

Ep 1 down and my initial observations are as thus:

Mew must be protected at all costs (and his glasses)

Neo and Mark are blowing the others away (NOT like that, although I wouldn't be surprised if it happens eventually)

Mew has the milkshake that's bringing all the boys to the yard (both Ray and Top obviously want him but does Boston want him too? Also, is it just a 'forbidden fruit' thing, where they probably only want him because he's inexperienced and waiting for the right one/time...?)

Pran's Singapore bedsheets are going to get desecrated at some point, right?

And will a different GMM actor cameo in every ep for Neo to sleep with?

I think that's all I've got for now. I won't be looking into the tag until I'm all caught up but you're welcome to direct me to any ep 1 posts or comment on this...but no spoilers for future eps please!

#only friends #ofts #only friends the series #ofts ep 1 #if you saw me answer an anon a while back about me NOT watching the series #no you didn't #(yes you did but I discovered there was a way for me to watch it after all) #anyway... #I'm blushing my way through this #it's hard to detach myself from knowing these actors #and that they're doing things so intimately with each other #I'm just 🙈🙈🙈 #but it's GOOD so far!

at the risk of sounding butthurt for talking about not being butthurt: going through quals really prepared me for trawling through fandom meta and research while keeping my zen

#redglyphs #opinionated verm #i have not seen another fandom as salty and divisive as the dc one #all the interesting meta and summaries come with this implicit ''you illiterate idiot'' vibe (exhausting) #or the ''we do what we want and fuck canon'' mindset is taken to the extreme end (simplistic and lacking nuance) #personally the visual style of a lot of western comics grates at me so it's hard to get into #but i do like the wack and fucked up dynamics of canon + trying to imagine a world/chronology around that #i like calibrating what i write around canon -> thus those meta&summary posters are very valuable and interesting to keep up with #i just gotta do 🙈 whenever they start to lambaste ''''fans'''' for not reading the comics/despised fanon reinterpretations of characters #''mmhmm yep. okay okay. i'm stupid. but let's get to why my blorbo is so fucked up bc of [whatever issue/run]'' #like whatever they say they cannot roast me as hard as this one prof from my quals panel did #that prof is basically the successor of the academic lineage that established his discipline #and man utterly destroyed me during the exam #''you have no idea what you're talking about; you didn't even read taylor's hypothesis from 1941'' and i just let my soul evaporate lmao #anyways. i feel like fandom (all fandom and esp ones w sprawling canons) would benefit from two things: #1) willingness to learn (you gotta try to absorb some of the canon to transform it; ''know the rules to break them'') #2) willingness to accept limits (ppl are allowed to pick and choose; ''you gotta tolerate other ppl on the playground'') #and like. fucking chill out. we're all literally writing about some fictional dudes doing fictional things #rarely is a thing you dislike actually harmful rather than just distasteful (to you personally or broadly w/e)

dont know if you're watching the rat - Thompson match. but he just had the biggest tantrum I've seen in a long time, not only was it totally embarrassing ,but he was also so violent with the umpire

not surprising, unfortunately. What else is there to say about that. He has anger management issues but I don't think he ever acknowledged he should work on them.

#tennis asks #bluespring asked and answered #btw i do not like the guy one bit and i despise what he very likely did #but even someone like him is human if we like it or not #so personally i'd prefer that on my blog his name gets used #i am particular about this but i really don't enjoy the self censorship #maybe not the full name so it doesn't show up in the tag... though why we should grant him that courtesy i'm not sure #sorry this is me being pedantic obviously call him what you like #but rats are intelligent and social so it might be too much of a compliment anyway 🙈

so I’m finishing the lonansona butterfly pavilion scene that I started in 2020 &&&

Harrison takes this as an opportunity. They’ve been apart so long he’s forgotten how startlingly pretty Lonan is in person, like a moving statue. His skin is almost opalescent in the moonlight, a patch near his back blotted lilac though the mark is less of an imperfection and more like watercolour granulation—something long admired in the inconsistency. His hair doesn’t move the way Harrison has expected it to, but even this isn’t a bad thing—it juts from his scalp briefly like an accordion, and then back down. Does he prefer it like that now? Cropped to his scalp like blunt grass.

#the context of this is that this was supposed to be their first scene alone together after the breakup #but then I changed it to harrison attempting murder on lonan <333 AS GOD INTENDED #ANYWAY me pointing and laughing at Harrison like ooooooh you liiiiike hiiiiim 🙈 #new bits are the startlingly pretty line & the watercolour granulation hit #like harrison how tf did you forget your bf is the prettiest man alive lmaooooo #but the watercolour granulation bit is making me lose my mind #sometimes I forget harrison is an artist and Likes Art (cuz it feels so weird and not him but he’s been like that since 2014) #anyway granulation is an effect a lot of watercolorists incl me go wild for lollllll this is Harrison’s equivalent of saying #I want him RIGHT NOWWWW

All in all, our inaugural Summerfest holiday was a smash hit success! Grilling, bonfire, even some fun jumping around in a sprinkler.

My second attempt at a hacking a goaled event with 3 sims, on the other hand, not so much... 

I really thought I’d hacked the system by finding the one goaled event that can be successfully planned with only two adults and one infant (and one corgi) in attendance. 

However, I did not realize that house parties were primarily about flirting. 😑 

#ui screenshot under the cut #buried because it's not ~aesthetic~ #and yes I did give it a go anyway 🙈 #full confession forthcoming #this was not the start of me rethinking my stance on not seeing them as a couple #I mean look at them 👀 #but it did not help 😅 #rebuild a city #ts4bacc #ts4 #ts4 gameplay #octavia li #tyler fuentes #dulcinea the dog

I'm such a stupid, fucking, asshole

when the Red Valley team released the episode talking about the final season I was like. you know what I need to not think about this or I'll lose my mind so the season will come out when it comes out.

so the Clive thing comes out and I'm like, holy shit it's happening right? and I restart from the beginning, enjoying it just as much or maybe even more than the first two times, and once again reach that episode talking about the final season.

so that's how, and especially when, I learn that there was (IS) an Indiegogo campaign and I would've literally been... Ready to pay for those super expensive contributions for real... and now it's gone, genuine tears in my eyes rn. I missed it because I didn't want to get too excited and needed to get my mind off of it. fuck my fucking life.

#please can i... #im on the floor please i want that watercolor and that signed script oh god.... #crying and shitting and pissing myself #anyway i dont draw anymore but ive been thinking abt scenes to draw while rewtching to stay tuned ig idek... #red valley podcast #also did you see that video they posted on yt. they're so... aaahaha im calm im alright #🙈♥️
