#Edit: it's the audacity for me

[re-dracula]

Idk your main blog otherwise I'd ask there

But I love the Wilhelm scream + looney tunes bonk post going around

I want to try silly sound design too now, where do you get silly sounds and is there a list of recognizable silly sounds somewhere?

Please and thank you! 🌟

(Tal's main blog is @starplanes but they (I) don't mind answering sound design stuff here too so don't worry!) Thank you! I get the bulk of my silly sounds (and a number of serious ones) from Freesound. I like the site because anyone can upload to it so you get a really huge variety, and one can also sort by public domain sounds so I can make sure my licensing is in order. The original recording session for the Wilhelm scream was recently uploaded there!

Sonnis's yearly free audio packs are also great for a beginner sound designer wanting to build up their library. They won't have recognizable silly sounds in there, but it's great for random sounds you sometimes need.

In so far as a list of recognizable silly sounds, I'm not sure if one exists! The Wilhelm is definitely the most popular, but I also find that searching for "cartoon" sounds will lead you to recognizable stuff sometimes too. I love this ask because most of the time as a sound designer I am trying very hard not to use recognizable sounds cause it'll take people out of the piece. But it's perfect for the shitposts!

#askbox #do the silly sound design and then send it to me I WANNA HEAR #also if you need a free audio editing software I rec Audacity for a low bar of entry and Reaper for complicated stuff #Reaper is not free but it's got a great free trail #I LOVE SOUND DESIGN THANK YOU FOR THE ASK OKAY BYE #notes on sound

will is a mitski girlie and hannibal is a lana del rey girlie. no I will not be elaborating further at this time

#this isn’t based on songs they would listen to #it’s songs I would use for edits #hannibal just has the sheer audacity that suits lana’s discography it had to be said #and mitski’s songs make me want to bury myself in a deep dark hole <3 #nbc hannibal #hannibal #will graham #hannigram #ghost speaks

you can try to change, but all you've done is put yourself in a new box.

(png versions below the cut)

i think my personal favourite of them is the newspaper! none of the boxes are really straight because i eyeballed everything, but i did abuse the colour picker on my reference photos rest assured

#ryo aoki #aoki ryo #yakuza #yakuza 7 spoilers #masato arakawa #arakawa masato #ryu ga gotoku #like a dragon #rgg #yakuza 7 #jichanart #hey guys here i am again with my boxes #thinking about aoki's walk of shame to this massive screen showing his undeniable guilt... gets me every time #a tv is a box too you idiot you didn't escape you didn't change your fate you're still the same #sorry i'm an umineko fan i was always predisposed to get weird with box imagery (tho in umi boxes have a totally different meaning) #had the idea+refs sitting in the drafts for ages waiting for when i'd get into a painting mood #and honestly consider it a testament to my love for aoki that i would reference and paint objects when i draw people almost exclusively #like i don't care for drawing backgrounds/objects but for this? yeah #obligatory apology to jp readers about the kanji i'm sure they look wonky #obligatory apology to the sound bros for my shoddy audio editing i'm just an artist with audacity trying to frankenstein an idea together

Podfic: Chapter Two, "From the Perspective of a Royal Guard" by CaptMickey

By permission of the author, @captmickey, a shabby narration of the second chapter of her King's Quest Ficlet. A festival of bad voice impressions, reading blunders, and much love and appreciation for the wonderful fic! Come sit by my imaginary fireplace and have a hot cup of tea while I struggle with scansion. :-)

The original text can be found here:

#Thank you so much Mickey for letting me do this! #Someday I will learn how to use Audacity properly and will do edits but if there's one thing I've learned on this website #it's that perfectionism = nothing to post. So. Enjoy! I did! #podfic #king's quest #SoundCloud

not someone commenting on tams to tell me to update taob. what if you fucked off forever

#the actual nerve of some people like it's bad enough getting those kinds of comments ON taob #bc obviously any comment along the lines of 'im literally begging you to update' is gonna piss the fuck out of a writer #BUT TO DO IT ON A DIFFERENT FUCKING FIC????? HAVE A HORRIBLE DAY #and the fact these people not only dont think they're doing anything wrong but think they're COMPLIMENTING ME #'i love your writing so much please update taob' IS NOT A FUCKING COMPLIMENT. LET ALONE ON A FIC THAT HAS NO RELEVANCE TO TAOB #WITH NO MENTION OF TAMS IN THE COMMENT EITHER. NO 'I REALLY LIKE THIS FIC. UPDATE TAOB' not that that would make it okay #but the utter audacity of it all is jarring. how are you gonna clearly have read tams and felt the need to comment #just to have NOTHING to say about it and tell me to update a different fic. actually fuck off #ending the comment with 'okay i love you' do you now. do you really. well it's unrequited babe. fuck off #you people make me mad sometimes istg #'hella why are you always so negative about taob's popularity' when i get something good out of it i'll let you know #edit: they left that comment on ch1 of tams which actually implies they didn't even read it which is somehow. worse #like they've clearly just clicked on it with no regard for the passion and effort i put into it seeing as it's a WHOLE SEPERATE FIC #and considered only that i might give the comment more attention if it was on tams not taob. what the actual fuck is the thought process #in what WORLD is someone taking that as a compliment. in what world am i gonna go 'omg writing it rn just for you bestie 🥺' #actually fuming about this idk why this one has got to me so much the utter CHEEK of it all has really knocked me sideways lmaooo

an audio narration/excerpt from an unreleased chapter, re: emily's changes to the timeline in dh2. i guess this is a behind the scenes???

reading aloud is one of my fav editing tricks. v minor spoilers for unreleased chapter of the monster in the hull

#dishonored #dishonored 2 #billie/emily #the monster in the hull #dishonored fic #read by author #woe. aussie accent be upon ye #no idea if i ended up fixing the volume. its my first day using audacity decided it was time to pick up a new skill #as an editing technique i only listen back if its like. a mouthfeel issue im having trouble putting my finger on #but i do try and have fun with it - for me its easy to wrack up high word counts but editing can become extremely tedious #so forcing myself to fuckin READ it. helps a lot? you know? #a post for the two people that might want this #ah well only postin' for the real ones <3

I like following you but can you go back to reblogging vg gifs soon, its why I’m here

the genocide of the palestinian people is being broadcast online across every social media platform and they are begging us not to look away and turn a blind eye to their suffering doctors and mass graves and murdered children and final words and you want me to post baldur’s gate or whatever. unfollow me and get the fuck out.

#this is such a fucking weird thing to ask too like. no. #letters #edit: no this makes me so angry actually #tumblr loves to suck its own self righteous dick and act like it’s the social justice hub of the world #yet it’s been the most silent of all social medias about palestine and this person’s audacity is just proof of that #i’m sick of this website’s ‘but this is my safe space’ ‘protect your mental health first’ bullshit excuses #just say it with your full chest. say that the palestinian genocide is an inconvenience to you. say it. #i am so happy your guys’ consciences allow you to turn away and pretend it isn’t happening truly /s #but i refuse to be like you and i reject the notion this stupid fucking website has that that is somehow moralizing #the least anyone with the privilege of looking away can do is bear witness. the least. #and personally i cannot stomach being on this website this past week much less posting about anything else. so i won't.

[t-u-i-t-c]

reminder that i don't want my gifs to be reposted anywhere. if i say "please do not repost" in the initial tags or watermark the gifs, then it shouldn't be reposted. this is a simple request. giffing is something i put a lot of time into, and i do find it rude to repost my gifs. i've been pretty upfront about this request and it's really disheartening to see my work stolen. please, just read my guidelines and respect them.

#i don't want to be mean but it bothers me #most people have been really good about following my guidelines which i'm glad #but please if you want to use my gif in a post just search it in tumblr's gif adding feature #then you can use the gif and i get credit it's a win-win #and obviously don't repost whole sets???? #thinking about that time someone reposted my whole set and then had the audacity to follow me #editing is an art as is making gifs idc of it's a simple edit or an extravagant set it's the gifmaker's time and energy that your taking #idc if you think giffing is easy make your own stuff then #just respect gifmakers' guidelines/boundaries and don't be a jerk #umbrella.thoughts #umbrella.posts #umbrella.other

ok nope i’m not done @podcastenthusiast and @dancingwiththefae have set off a new round of brainworms i hope you’re proud of yourselves lmao

because like. it’s about the humility, right? it’s about admitting ignorance. it’s about acknowledging that sometimes you, personally, might not be enough to fix something, or someone, or that maybe whatever it is can’t actually be fixed. that it isn’t about fixing.

it’s “why so much makeup? you don’t need it, you’re so beautiful to me” vs “‘do you think i’m sexy?’ and oh god i really did”

it’s “i don’t know how to reach you when you get like this” vs “i don’t know, but i’m here”

it’s “stop making up death wishes and take my lifeline” vs “oh dear god, dear heart, don’t cry”

it’s “something’s sucking out your core and it’s so boring” vs “and now even though you’re mad…that’s ok”

it’s “can’t you see that i’m enough for you, but you don’t want me to be, because that means you’ll actually have to be content” vs “i will wait (for you to get better, for you to tell me what you need) and hope (that it’s still me)”

marbles answers the question “why so sad” with a partner who finally understands what she means when she says “stop asking why i’m sad, it’s enough to know i’m sad”

marbles is what happens when the partner of a mentally ill person stops trying to find a solution to the mental illness and decides to simply love them anyway. to wait, and hope, and sometimes pour them a drink and sit on the kitchen floor with them while they cry, and promise to murder their shitty customers for them. to not say “i’m enough for you” but instead “you’re enough for me, exactly as you are.”

(i know it’s about memory loss and not depression but eh depression can come with memory problems a lot and also sticking by a partner through severe mental or neurological illness looks pretty much the same all through, in the end)

#frothing at the mouth as fucking always #idk i don’t think i managed to rly articulate my thoughts toward the end there but y’all get it #the amazing devil #tad #joey batey #madeleine hyland #i gotta meet them just so i can ask them where the hell they got the AUDACITY #to come into MY HOUSE #and hit me in the FUCKING FACE #edited bc colors are fun and i want the contrasts to be easier to see #also i gotta be very clear: i love both songs #like the couple in lmws hurt each other and talk past each other and fail to stay together #but that love is very real also #sometimes love isn’t enough #i adore that they dive into that

The lack of self awareness of Grizznom shippers has always baffled me. Shippers that romanticize abuse and toxicity by denying it and sweeping it under the rug can already be unnerving enough but they go even beyond that. Like, they obviously don't care about Grizz at all. They just see him a tool to make Nom Nom happy because "he's sooo sad and lonely, he deserves it:(((". They don't care, otherwise it doesn't make sense to look at a guy that struggles with insecurity, bottles up negativity because he must be "the supportive one" and is still kind to jerks despite being uncomfortable and go "ah yes, I will ship him with the dude that constantly tries to use, belittle, humiliate him and was more than ok with getting him killed for a video, made the police hunt him down for a crab, and never tried to apologize to him and his family he also hurted, this ship is soooo healthy and wholesome💕💕💕"

[edit: read my self-reblog for follow up]

#and they have the audacity to act superior because they think they're so wholesome wtf #some grizznom shippers started to insult panlie shippers calling it toxic #like??? panlie is flawed but it's nowhere as bad as grizznom #anti grizznom #anti nom nom #we bare bears #yeah sure i believe in freedom and all doesn't mean i can't criticize a bad fanon ship #it's the lack of self awareness and the audacity that bother me like if you ship a toxic ship at least be aware of it #and don't attack others because you think you're better lol #maybe i'll delete this but i had to get it out of my system pff #it sucks enough when your favorite character is everyone least favorite and see lot of people hating on him for being dumb #and then most people ship him in an abusive ship but act like it's wholesome and think they can attack others because superior complex #give me a break for having a notp #grizz wbb #wbb grizz #edit: read the comments and addendum before you get mad

Summary:

“You’re not helping, Wrecker,” Hunter admonished, and Wrecker just pouted, head hanging. He couldn’t help it; he felt bad for poor Omega, trapped inside on Halloween with a headcold. For the afternoon, he’d fought a good fight with her to convince Echo and Hunter that if she bundled up, a little night walk around the neighborhood wouldn’t hurt, but then the rain had come to scatter even those distant hopes.

Wrecker and Omega make the most of a rained-out Halloween.

Putting this on a separate note but the amount of discourse The Little Mermaid (2023) has gotten so far is ridiculous to me. I don't consider it an improvement or a replacement to the original (mainly because the original is WHY this movie exists, and I don't think the intent is to replace it either), but it's a solid enough film in the vein of Roger and Hammerstein's Cinderella where I could definitely see kids and teenagers (even young adults) like it enough to revisit it. It's not a cinematic masterpiece, but why anyone expects that from Disney of all things, I'll never know.

But the obsessive amount of hate it's gotten from bizarro "anti-woke" youtubers is ridiculous, mostly because of the casting and now they're trying to use "Across The Spiderverse" as their way of 'fighting back' against Disney's "woke agenda" as if they aren't foaming in the mouth over Miles Morales being called Spider-man. Just an all-round insane sort of response to a film that for all it's supposedly big changes, is harmless overall.

#the little mermaid 2023 #the little mermaid #I don't think the changes are all bad btw; some I disagree with but it's generally fine? #it's really not worth *waves hands* all this #and sorry but adult men in their 30s/40s being gross towards Halle is ridiculous #all this hate and ridicule for a film whose original they likely never even watched or liked #I don't even stan actors but editing her face and throwing offenses at her at their grown ass age is insane #it's like a reviewer noted but this type of outrage being thrown at a kids movie from people who are way beyond the age range #for whom this movie is marketed for is bizarre #why are you doing all of this for a kids movie? #also not surprising to me that these are the same people who froth at the mouth any time Brie Larson has the 'audacity' to make a joke #just an obscene amount of hate; not even at this film existing much but more so at a black woman playing Ariel

𝒞𝑜𝓃𝓉. — { @heredis-sanguinis }

{ ⟡ } ——— The endearment in the sweet nickname & how softly he had kissed her lips would deem her entirely silent. It was the tenderness of his hold & concerns, it was the sweetness & care poured upon her broken, powerless, form. The words calling upon her beauty, albeit if at first she had jested to lighten the mood & perhaps bait a compliment or two to feed her ego, had now moved her heart upon the sincerity in his voice. —& with every brush of his thumbs, it would be as if calling forth crimson & life to her otherwise sickly visage… & it wasn’t caused by no magic more than the one bonding their beating hearts together through centuries. The audacity~

“You truly look at me with Cupid’s Arrow painfully piercing through you, don’t you, Mon Amour?” Her tired voice would joke, yet find delight in the comforting & intimate gestures.

She had to consciously refrain herself from following more into his caresses & let go an undignified capricious plea out of her when his hands would move away from her face, yet immediately soothed by the contact remaining across on her arms. Albeit it made her flinch at the wounds & marks, as the poison in her body would reject any attempt to heal the damaged flesh, instead taking & drinking more & more as a greedy creature…

After all, her own nature perhaps would even play against his attempts, making it a little more difficult as an unexpected counter attack, especially when on normal occasions in the past, when petricide wasn’t in the equations, her silhouette would follow through his own instruction & ministrations, guiding it back into health with no single delay…

Perhaps, simply this occasion was trickier: A Mortal Body would form out of flesh by itself first, & blessed with sorcery afterwards; siphoning sorcery out of it would not diminish the body’s capability nor alter its stability…. But, a Nymph was Wild Magic on her own first, given a vessel of flesh by Nature itself afterwards & held together at its own seams by fine threads of golden power. It was less stable to heal on its very own without power flowing freely… & the petricide would make it far harder to resew the lose strings that would never deny him at other times.

Yet Emilia couldn’t help but appreciate her beloved’s attempts, noticing how his eyes would change shades to deep crimson, provoking a little pitiful & ashamed smile. “It's fine…” It wasn’t, but she would whisper regardless, almost melancholic, saccharine & condescending. A hand reaching up to touch his cheek ever-so gently. “… There’s no need for you to force it, Vovachka, I wouldn’t wish you to fall due exhaustion, & have us both bed-ridden.”

In contrast, however, the following mentions made her almost unladylike snort along her low chuckles. “Your sweet puppies are amazing guardians, & their hard-work is ever appreciated.” Fortunately for them, as she was lacking her magic meant no sudden bowties, top hats or waistcoats on the Drakehounds for once. Simply nodding at the expectations of his servitude fluttering around her upon calling was, more disliked in the reminder of her weakness even if it was an act of care. Centuries accustomed to be self-sufficient to be almost bed-ridden was going to need customary adjustment—

Her eyes suddenly opened in genuine wonder, albeit the glow of molten-gold was subdued to a darker hue, there was a hint of ever-vivacious attitude swirling underneath. Humming in contemplation, & her tone becoming a bit playful “You are still awfully assertive lately, that almost sounded as when I wasn’t allowed into the royal gardens’ fully by myself without a chaperon…. & a sweet Prince may offer himself to guide me, even if there would always be someone lurking regardless.” In her mind, the memory was clear & bright as if it had been yesterday, it was went their little attempts of secrecy written upon paper strips had started, or when she had picked upon the oddities of fan language from the aristocrats to convey messages to him too.

“But do not fret, dearest Dragon, I won’t stray too far from your Castle’s tower—,… I doubt for now I would be able to give a couple of steps even if I wanted to, before August or Carmine would alert you on something being wrong, or your dedicated servitude noticing the stumbling Matron on the halls... or you feeling it by yourself in that regard.” Her fingers would carefully move inside the collar of her silk dress to take out & look upon a heart-shaped pendant. Crimson blood flowing through clear crystal, silver wrapping around it as veins, one could almost swear it was about to beat ever-so softly—...

" —Is that how you knew I was hurt & needed help? Your Gifts?" She wondered as sinking a little more into the comforting pillows, trying to deny the way her body was aching. Tensed muscle, tired bones, heavy as a doll without strings. It was ridiculous, yet she stubbornly attempted to not show too much of it & pretend it wasn’t noticeable if keeping a caring eye. Despite being a deceiver & illusionist to many, a master of masking her true reactions & intentions to others, Vladimir had always come to be the one she didn’t feel the need to pretend or hide… … defeated, she had come to that conclusion long ago: he would know either way what lay beneath, wouldn’t he?
