#Just need like an outlet I think

[smugraccoon137]

Been thinking about rewatching Steven universe. I wonder if it's all the trauma

#Just need like an outlet I think #Sad guy outlet #Like a little maple syrup pitch but all the sad poors out instead #I going to quit my job soon #But im not sure when #I need to find a new apartment first so we'll see #I want more MONEY #So yeah thinking about steven #Cus that show really taught me how to be kind #I think I really need that right now #I hate how badly thr Fandom is thought of #Because that kid literally kept me alive for a number of years #I love Steven and I'm really thankful for him #text #textpost #steven universe

help wanted 2 brainwashed me so here's some ooc self-indulgence:

hey mike, maybe if you played moon's games and took a nap, it wouldn't chase you around the building, just a thought

later:

#2023 #moondrop #moondrop x self insert #moon x self insert #self insert #self ship #sunnydrop #fnaf #five nights at freddy's #i didn't draw the chase but enough people have drawn moon chasing them like y'all can imagine it i'm sure #anyway i think moon just needs someone whos chill with its preferred kind of games so it has a positive outlet for that… it needs enrichmen #and i'm perfectly fine being hunted like an infant forest boar being stalked by a lepard if its actually a silly robot #edit: i'm so happy so many people liked this ;o; i'm not used to this much attention wtf thank you

hyunjin on bubble: im drawing and i started wondering why i even draw. so i can’t sleep.. staying in that period of transition. the reason why i keep asking these questions and trying to find answers is, i think it’s because i believe that it’s only those who love me, that can help me find an answer or a path. because thinking about and questioning things that you don’t really need to think about and answering those questions is contradicting in itself.. is what i think? (translation source)

#hyunjin #🧼 #skz #my baby.. ☹️ four am thoughts eating him hard.. #hope he can get some of the bestest sleep of his life after pondering and wondering like this #mentally patting his brain like buddy u work really hard now rest for a bit #also to answer to his first question of #why he’s even drawing. i think art runs in your veins and it just needs a creative outlet to get out and shine. #maybe that’s one of the many reasons.. #maybe u find comfort in the beauty of the canvas and brush strokes. #maybe u want to make people happy and warm with your creations

and worst part is that if (when) that nuclear powerplant in Zaporizhzhia blows there is a high chance there will be next to 0 consequences for russia from the rest of the west

like if the russians blew off a nuke then there’s no doubt ww3 would happen but mining a nuclear power plant and then blowing it to high heaven? same radioactive fallout but for some reason it will be treated as a different thing

#war in ukraine #sorry #i hate to be a gloomer but this shit is a real existential threat for everyone over here #and.. uh... i think it should be talked about more #like we NEED media and official news outlets to talk about it #but fuck me sideways i just don't know what i can do about it #like if all western leaders united and drew a clear red line then maybe... #but i don't see that happening unless this shit becomes common knowledge #and western media is just--- why the fuck ain't we talking about this?!

[candycatstuffs]

Thinkin about how i get caught up in art being all about communicating stories and ideas, or looking aesthetically pleasing, or being a way to earn money and just kinda,,,, forget. that at its core, art is a way for me to process my thoughts and emotions

#maybe punishing myself for wanting to use art as an outlet for what im actually feeling and want to draw rather than what i think i should #be feeling and wanting to draw is NOT the way to go #all this shit is probably not a revelation to anyone else but. idk #i need to remember it more #amd for the record its not like the things i listed are bad #theyre just what i tend to focus on #and can tilt towards being for other ppl instead of for me #we are rambling in this chillis tonight

people are often like “wow early rvb is so problematic” and like. that’s not wrong but it implies that later rvb somehow got better and like.

besties this was 2015. the only reason chorus isn’t filled with jokes like this is because chorus doesn’t have any jokes. this show was never our friend.

#we’re not dealing with early aughts humor anymore they were still like this way past that point #i think we’ll all just be better off if we accept that rvb was never meant for us and we’re stealing it from straight men by force #and NO ONE better be fucking saying to me 2015 was a different time. we were there. it was not a different time. #this psa was a direct response to people asking rt to stop making jokes like this. #TONIGHT IS HATER NIGHT i’ve been having emotional flashbacks all day okay i desperately need an outlet or i’ll explode #i’ll be better in the morning #tw rape #<-funny! that’s the exact thing that the show was making fun of us for doing! how funny is that. #anyway.

I don’t know how to explain it but if Loki had siblings I think Thor would inadvertently fall in love with at least 1 of them

#Thor would see Helblindi or Byleistr and it’d just be on sight I think #Loki is going to be so annoyed he’s going to be like Thor you’re not even into men what’s gotten into you #and Thor’s gonna be sitting there like you’re using the wrong tense there brother #Loki like you were very racist only a year ago and Thor like wait do you think my anger has no other outlet Loki please Loki I need answers #Thor sits down staring blankly at a spot on the table while he introspections himself while Helblindi and By are like what’s wrong with him #Loki like don’t ask #Helblindi and Byleistr who know Laufey and Odin have two kids like ohhhhhhhh I see what’s going on here #man I love making their family tree convoluted #bonus points if Thor’s either 1. v happy about Loki meeting his bio siblings or 2. doesn’t know that’s Loki’s bro before he’s become smitten

Wait wait wait you just watched Marry My Dead Body?!?? I need to commiserate then holy shit. I watched it yesterday because I was travelling and also figured it be a fun goofy film to watch while stuck in transit for hours and then suddenly it was over and I was sitting there in goddamn TEARS. I WAS NOT EXPECTING IT TO BE SO EMOTIONAL. IT MADE ME LAUGH AND THEN ALSO STABBED ME IN THE HEART. I feel like it played me for a fool, but in the best possible way. What a good ride it is :’)

OH MY GOD SAME.

Well, except I was at home and went: "I'll watch this before going to bed, I'm sure it'll be a fun time" and, I mean, it WAS but it also wasn't. Like, after I finished it I just sat there, not knowing how to contain all the emotions I was experiencing. How the fuck was I supposed to sleep after something like that?

I genuinely had no idea what to do with myself (I still kind of don't tbh). I did NOT expect to cry as much as I did. Quite a few things can make me cry but this just hit me right where it hurts. And I didn't expect it, in any way, shape, or form. I was completely unprepared.

It was supposed to be a silly comedy!

But, like, for real? The "my husband" moment? You should have HEARD the fucking noise I made. It was guttural. I was fucking obliterated.

(and oh man, I so desperately want to make people feel that way with my writing. I am so, so inspired!)

Long story short, I'm emotionally compromised and I have absolutely no regrets. I just love, love, love becoming this invested in a story and I'm still neck-deep in feels. It's been two days already but my thoughts just keep returning to this movie, time and time again.

So I'm guessing I'm going to rewatch it in a day or two x'D

#Amethystina Replies #wolfandrain #Marry My Dead Body #This won't be something I write a fanfic for tho #I don't have anything to add #Like I genuinely can't think of anything to write because I'm afraid of ruining my current feelings for this movie #I want to leave it just the way it is #So I guess I'll have to find and outlet somewhere else #And considering the level of emotion I'm itching to convey? #Time to get back to Who Holds the Devil I guess #Since that's the only story I have right now which is intense enough #I am going to wreck some shit up #Which was planned all along by the way #I usually take a break after a big emotional climax #But I actually did the opposite this time #I paused because I needed to brace myself for what's to come x'D #So I apologise in advance I guess #This will hurt

[ninja-knox-ur-sox-off]

Every once in a while I'm possessed by the frankly insanely intense urge to draw on myself

#knox rambles #ive been meaning to get skinsafe pens or markers or something but i havent #im staring at my thumb vividly watching where the lines should be #this will not go away until i either draw this out or find another outlet for my bottled up emotions-- #i feel a bit mentally ill #slight grips of insanity digging into my brain #someone might look at me and assume im contemplating murder by the expression on my face but no #im just resisting the urge to grab a pen and come to an hour later with a headache and some elaborate drawing over MY THUMB SPICIFICALLY #i really need to find good skinsafe markers #totally fine one second feeling like my sanity is slipping the next its all i can think about now #is this a problem? who knows honestly WHEEZEJFJJG

[ID: four page comic of the owl house. Page 1: Eda walks past Luz, Gus and Willow, who're sat on the floor of the owl house around a box labeled "Eda's Music". Eda notices them and peeks around the corner asking "uh, hey kid- whatcha doin?". Luz says "oh hey Eda!".

Page 2: Luz says "we were just going through all your old human music!" While holding a CD case. She continues "I've been getting nostalgic listening to some old latin pop CDs, like what my mom used to play around the house! (You have a surprising amount of merengue music btw)". Gus sheds a single tear and says "I've sampled human music before but, wow, just, wow! The technique...the inspiration...Carly Rae Jepsen is a genius". Willow looks to the side and says "and I've been listening to your old breakup mixtapes!".

Page 3: Eda looks at her blankly before saying "my what?". Willow says- "your breakup music! There's a whole box of it. I'm pretty over it now but back in the day...when Amity stopped hanging out with me...it hit me hard. I kinda had a phase of only listening to angsty breakup songs for like...a month. Maybe more. It's kinda sad in retrospect".

In the background we can see a flashback of young willow sobbing in bed while summoning vines to cover photos of her and Amity on her wall. Willow continues "things are a lot better now don't get me wrong...but I still listen to that playlist every once in a while when I need a release". Eda contemplates, then grimaces, remembering breakup with Raine (who's pictured saying "it's over, eda").

Page 4: Eda looks at Willow. She eventually says "wanna trade?" And Willow looks up. Final panel shows Luz standing in the doorway concerned as she looks at Willow and Eda. willow is kneeling in front of a casette player and headphones with a shadowy expression and Eda is in the family guy death post with a phone and headphone wire next to her. Both have annotations- Willow's says "got One of Us by ABBA" and Eda's is "got Nightshift by Lucy Dacus". Luz says "you guys good?". End ID]

#the owl house #willow park #eda clawthorne #luz noceda #gus porter #(i know he's essentially a cameo in this but he has a speaking role at least i feel justified tagging him) #raeda #not really intended as amillow? more abt the experience of taking a friendship breakup hard but lacking the language to describe it #but can be interpreted as amillow if you want #anyway. every stage of this comic kicked my ass and tbh it's not my favorite but it got me drawing again and that's good #i still think the idea is funny part of me is just like. actually we can do better lets take it from the top #which is deranged bc I've already spent like 2-ish weeks on this i am not looking at this for another second #do i think enjoying angsty breakup music is wholly in character for willow? im not sure. she doesn't like dwelling on the negative #BUT like. i think you can make the argument she'd enjoy it in private. she represses a lot of feelings she needs some kind of outlet #and this is s2A in my mind (post eclipse lake where willow and Gus want to check out more human music) #so i feel like I can justify her talking about her angsty guilty pleasure to eda #also like. bby willow is DEVASTATED in the understanding willow flashbacks. maybe older willow tries to ignore things #but for at least a few months it was probably a big struggle for her coming to terms w/ why amity stopped hanging out w/ her #anyway i don't want to look at this anymore. have at thee! #i have 2 (two) more comics thumbnailed and one of them is shorter/funnier but the other one is a hc I really like #so currently a toss up between which one gets done next #it's half past midnight and i don't wanna stay awake until 2 am again so I'll probably just leave this lurk for a bit and then sleep #i hate the way this is formatted (the images are SO SMALL ON MOBILE) but i don't want this post to be more vertical than it is

i think most people need to expand their idea of art so dipshits can stop saying ai art is actually good for physically disabled people who cant do art. what do you mean when you say art? can we ask that question? if you say that word and all you mean is a pretty portrait or an oil painting, then you need to open yourself up.

art at a base level is just something you made with some kind of strong emotion – some kind of passion – behind it. yes a hyper rendered portrait can still be art. a sketchy pen drawing is art. a mess of colors making shapes on a canvas is art. painting a huge canvas in paintstakingly light layers of a single color so that the end result is perfectly smooth is art.

a song on the speakers in a store is art. an underground indie song you love is art. singing a single sentence song with small children is art. voice acting is art. beading is art. jewlery is art. decorating your home is art. making a house or a person in the sims is art. making dumb ass tiktoks can be art. stuffed animals are art. resin crafting is art. sculpting is art. making little dioramas is art. collecting and cleaning dolls and figures is art. meticulously organizing your desktop and phone layouts is art. getting bored and spraypainting a shelf a new color is art. writing about your favorite show, whether theories or as a fanfiction, is art.

technology is art. engineering is art. architecture is art. science is art. sewing, modding, dress up games, hoke renovations, dancing, singing, fingerpainting, cooking, cross stitching, baking, making a blog or an essay about something you love, or hate, cmor care about, dearly, rearranging store shelves, crochet, making people laugh, icing a box mix cake, the way scientists talk about their field, literary analysis, printing shirts, personalizing your car, sex work, editing a picture to print, scrapbooking, getting really into planners, putting stickers on your things. its all art

when i say ai art isnt art, and it isnt a good tool for disabled people to make art. im not saying you have to be like me, who is physically disabled, and fingerpaint or that you have to learn to paint and draw with your mouth or toes or whatever. i mean art is something you are passionate about, and you need to find the kind of art that speaks to you and lets you express yourself. if that means you push your disabled (or abled) body to draw portraits of people like yours truly, then thats wonderful. if that just is not your art, thats wonderful too. theres so much out there to try.

you dont have to limit yourself to the first kind of art that pops in your head when you hear the word. and always remember. it doesnt have to be good or marketable. it just has to be yours

#idk im just thinking about some notes i saw on an ai post #about another disabled person saying something like..m well i shouldnt have to learn how to paint with my teeth to make art #and i agree. but thats not an excuse to take advantage of a skeevy ai program dubiously using art posted online. #it just means you need to find your outlet. if you arent willing to find your workaround to paint then dont paint. find other art #its okay to be dissappointed about that. its not okay to choose to let that hurt other people #its okay to yearn for something you cant do. im shit at any kind of fiber art and it hurts my physically and i wish it wasnt like that #but i do just have to accept its not the avenue for me and that is okay #conversely it does cause my pain to sit up and paint and i cant always hold a brush without pain and using needles bends back my fingers #but its what i need to do to express myself. so i keep working witg it and finding ways to make it accessible to me #im just not willing to do that with crochet or knitting #if you arent willing to find ways to do it. then it is worth thinking about if its something you need and really want to do. or if its just #a nice idea and something that would be cool.

okay but where the fuck does one even begin to learn how to draw i-

#i mean #i have an itty bitty amount of experience because of what i had to do for architecture #but that was like.... buildings. #how tf do you even begin to draw a person #HOW. #my brain is self destructing #do i need to start hoarding youtube tutorials or something????? help #im trying to get more into it cause i think it'll be another good outlet for me but. uhhhhhh #so far ive just been using references to just kinda practice basics but. is that correct #idk man i'm trying #[☂] — bunny babbles

He didn’t actually say it was in the works. He said there might be a 4th

“‘Frozen 3’ is in the works, and there might be a ‘Frozen 4’ in the works too,” Disney’s CEO said Thursday on “Good Morning America.”

#frozen #frozen 3 #frozen 4 #? #IF it were true you’d like to think it’s because the storyline from 3 needs to carry over to #another movie #but it’s probably just to make more $ #anyway I need to find the actual conversation from GMA #But this is in multiple outlets

"A SOURCE" this fucking fandom I swear- the source is the tabloids (and before that Liam's PR team) but the real omitted info here (other than WHERE, WHAT SOURCE, WHY) is that the articles are primarily focused on Liam and his influencer girlfriend Kate Cassidy announcing a split, for anyone actually wanting to keep up with all the Liam news; yes they will have done that to get the music news into the papers but it is also information that exists and I would like to be informed about. The articles say that she moved out of his house and back to the US.

#liam payne #remember like a month ago when he was like I can't wait to get old with her #oh liam #oh honey #obviously album news is important too and yes they announced it sandwiched in with romance news for a reason #it wouldn't have a got a headline otherwise #but god I wish UAs would just give us the updates and let us sort out what we think about it and what parts of interest #for ourselves #I am not a child I do need you to chew my food for me #anyway the original source is the sun so clearly the story was given to them by liams team #it was then picked up by other outlets such as the one I linked

you can hold true in your head that the executives of ZA/UM had selfish and manipulative intentions like the filthy little capitalists they are and also that Robert Kurvitz continues to dismiss and belittle the fact that he was toxic and abusive towards the people working directly below him. you can believe both these are truths, promise you're fucking capable. at the end of the day, you should be supporting the workers. they made the project you love so much, and have been fucked over by this whole situation.

for context: gaming journalists People Make Games dropped a 2 and a half hour documentary detailing the complexities of the legal battles between disco elysium's original creators and ZA/UM shareholders/executives.

#idk man like yes the executive side of it is fucked and all but I'm sorry robert kurvitz comes off as an absolute asshole #and sure he was in a stressful situation and he absolutely deserves to be compensated and acknowledged for his work but #his reaction to people saying he was a shit head to them is to say 'this is a ploy to divide workers' #MOTHERFUCKER YOU WERE THEIR BOSS? soooo communist of you to exploit a hierarchy for your own outlet #so i think yall need to not dismiss that just bc it's hard to swallow the flaws of a creator you respected #disco elysium #za/um #robert kurvitz #Youtube
