#a little light went on

a little light went on

…Well, at least for Jackson Wang it did.

The general consensus is that Jackson should be eating his words. Or at least taking the time to reflect on what he said at that concert in London. The situation was so polarizing and made me think, “Why? Why did he decide to do that?”

But this isn’t about his actions weeks ago. This is about what people have noticed. They say he doesn’t look happy and that his drinking problem is so sad to see. He actually admitted to it. Yet, in the divide of his fans, some defend it saying he doesn’t necessarily have a drinking problem while others say he, in fact, does have a drinking. And regardless of what I think, I believe it’s a little weird how when fans comment on his appearance (saying he looks sad, and I hope he’s doing okay, he seems to be struggling, etc etc etc), there are other fans who are like, “I appreciate your concern, but we shouldn’t make Jackson worry. So, I think we should stop talking about his appearance…” Yet, I’ve expressed genuine concern along with everyone else. Why not comment on it? Why not point out the obvious? He looks sad and exhausted.

Of course he’s not perfect, but he looks like he’s struggling with burnout and his mental health. He needs to rest.

A fellow fan brought to my attention why fans are still commenting on his appearance and mindset, and they said this:

“….In one of his interviews, he said that there's one light bulb in his house that he never turns off. When he returns home, seeing that light makes him feel that after a day of hardwork, when all the people and camera no longer surrounds him, there is someone/something that awaits him in his home, and that's the light that is always turned on.”

And I think about this short movie I watched titled, “A Little Light Went On” that the music duo Matt and Kim posted on their YouTube channel. The premise is basically about a new product that’s been released in the market. It’s a lamp (or a thing with a lightbulb in it). After you buy the lamp and set it up in your home, the lamp may or may not turn on. The only way it turns on is when a person is thinking of you. The story went on to depict that when there were people’s lightbulbs who never went on, those people opted to make themselves disappear or they fell into a deep depression.

In a very sentimental perspective, maybe Jackson’s holding onto the fact that someone’s (a lot of people are) thinking of him and that he still matters. Maybe that means more to him than empty declarations of love from fanatics, and the love from his family who love him very much but he may feel disconnected from (due to how he sees himself). It’s the thing he can come home to.

He’s glad the light went on. And it stays on. I’m not sure if what I said makes sense. But maybe I can understand why he keeps the light on.

Idk why but I can imagine Vasco and machete looking at the stars together since there was probably not a lot of light pollution in their time than there is nowadays so the stars were probably wayyy more visible

#still away from home and the scanner at my disposal isn't very good so no finished art but have a little sketch nonetheless #own art #own characters #CanisAlbus #art #artists on tumblr #Vasco #Machete #anthro #sighthound #dogs #canine #animals #sketches #wip #answered #fattyteeth #can Machete even see the stars properly though I'm not really sure #I went outside and took off my glasses to maybe get some perspective but alas it's a cloudy night there's no stars visible to begin with #and I guess the massive difference in light pollution kind of makes it pointless to even try they're not comparable

HAPPY 16TH BIRTHDAY!!! To this elderly bapy boye!!! he...!!!

#cats #ghhbbb this is the first time I've genuinely considered tumblr blazing a post lol but no.. i shant.. I feel too weird putting financial #information into tumblr or whatever unless I made like a seperate bank account or something not associated with anyhting else lol #but I gave it serious contemplation which is really sayng something (the evil magical spell that all cats cast over u by their perfection) #ANYWAY.................... old man!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! #it's technically like march 8th but I did his party a little early. I have other pictures to post later maybe too..hrmm #The '1' candle is actually a '4' candle with the side part cut off because they didn't have any 1s #I went all out (like under $15 still lol) and got new birthday decorations for him instead of using the same old #ones from the past like 5 birthdays that I've done for the cats lol.. #His theme was rainbows mostly in as light of colors as I could find #The legal age to drive a car in the US is 16 so.... honk honk beep beep.. I shall go out and buy him the most expensive car on the market #as soon as March 8th comes. then he can run little errands (probably mostly getting kibbles or chicken somewhere) #stealing the rotisserie chickens from walmart or something lol #AND they would let him have them. He would drive up and walk inside and they'd call the manager to come over #and they would be so moved by his presence and his big goofy stare that they would just be like..... okey.. have all the chicken in the #entire store. Actually. have the store. it's yours now. And This would continue all the way up the chain until he was handed #the entire walmart company. And every other company. a boy who owns everything. probably wouldnt use it for evil. he'd just abolish #everything and then focus on eating chickens.. ........ chibken son...

Hear me out on this. In the silly monster Au, Gumshoe has a confetti canon.

GO GO GUMSHOE CONFETTI CANNON

He was originally built to be a detective for the defense, so when the defense wins, he still has the programming to celebrate

#doctorsiren #ace attorney #ace attorney au #dick gumshoe #miles edgeworth #ace attorney fanart #silly little monster au #art #digital art #my art #fanart #procreate #since they’re like brothers in this AU I thought Miles should call him something other than Gumshoe #and since his name is Richard I went with Richie bc sillyyyyy #also this is during when Miles started losing against Phoenix and so #1. his earrings are still the light blue (he doesn’t get the Phoenix-suit coloured ones until after the first game’s events #2. his suit is gray bc the stress of losing to this amateur had continued his habit of sucking the red colour out of his clothes

[luck-of-the-drawings]

AUU FUCK I FORGOT I MADE THIS. it started out as a single little sketch and hten i woke up with glass in my arm. dont look too hard at the lighting. or the lines. or the anything. this whole fuckin episode was so fun HAHAHAH i love skin and terror.

#jrwi fanart #jrwi show #jrwi riptide #jrwi riptide spoilers #FUNFACT! I DRAW GILLION WITH SHARP TEETH NORMALLY. DOPPLE GILLY GETS SMOOTH TEETH. DO YOU SEE? DO YOU SEE? #THIS WAS ALSO RLY FUN TO DRAW... i didnt try too hard i just had fun or whatever. i love colors. and limited pallets. HEHEH #i also LOVE TRYING TO INSTILL THAT FEELING OF UNEASE THROUGH THE HUMBLE STILL IMAGE.. the swirls n the MENACING symbols with gill #he gets the reflecty eyes and strange smile. I ALSO LIKE THE LIL LIGHTBULB NEAR CHIP #i think its fun to try to find small images with the intent of communicating another thing happening. like. thinking! cogs and lights #im also happy with the fact that i went with just using the brightest color for the text. i wrestled with speech bubbles for a MINUTE!!! #OH AND ANOTHER FUNFACT. i give gillion very specific coral pattern with 2 points on the first two n 3 points on the last #i reversed that for dopplegilly. just another fucked up little art tactic from little ol me

day 24

it is time once again for my accidental streak of Redrawing Aradiabot On Day 24. i swear i literally don't even set an alert for this or anything, it just works out like this every year. i hit january 24th and smth in my brain goes "huh what were we doing this time last year, anything good to revisit?" and i check the day 24 tag and im like OH YEAH. THE SAME DAMN ARADIABOT DRAWING I'VE DONE THE PAST HOWEVER MANY YEARS!!!

#day 24 #year 5 #aradia megido #homestuck #this year i went digital again but instead of the semi lineless thing i did last year #i figured i ought to do something that is actually most typical of my style atm #so like clean line art cel shading a little bit of soft lighting to make shit pop u know The Usual for my most finished stuff #i thought about doing it all with the csp pencil since that's really been My Jam lately and like #rendering it full digital painting style since i've kinda been in my Rendering Era for a bit i think #but yknow maybe next year. didnt really feel like i had time for all that tonight.

i love it when bad is very specifically a good roleplayer by giving other people good prompts. like casually bringing up wilbur now to tallulah. or when he put missa in the petting zoo. or all those times he Tormented the Lesbians so they could protect each other from him. its just so !!!! I love watching roleplayers be considerate of other roleplayers and gleefully hand over something they Know the other person's character can react to. i've seen cellbit do it, too (that time he handed his knife to bbh. oh my god). it's not a rare thing, and it's possible to be a good roleplayer without keeping that sort of considerate back and forth in mind, but its one of my favourite things to notice. foolish does it too, sometimes- i haven't watched him much, but i did take note of when he Made Sure to bring jaiden along with him on a cucurucho quest. and basically every interaction he had with bad when the eggs were missing. its just so so good

#i think one of the worst things that can happen to a roleplay is for the players to stop interacting with each others' storylines #roleplay is an incredible medium particularly because of that Collaboration and Improv #and if youre just standing around pushing your own story then yeah sure its fun #but its MAGICAL when people engage with it #and its MAGICAL to look at a story #go 'what if i. did something funny here' #and throw in a little wrench that lights a delighted FIRE in the other player's eyes because now they get to go on a rant #or take drastic measures #or just do something a little fun that they couldn't/wouldn't have without that prompting #its like when bad went around telling people he was imposing building laws on behalf of the feds and people were like #actively a little disappointed that it was just a prank and they couldn't go HAM #anyway i miss roleplay. #qsmp why would you make all these people live so far apart from each other </3 spawn is so uninhabitable there is nothing for them #to make pretty or modify its not Theirs there's no reason for them to be there other than to shop #but i am on . a tangent. #and that is its own lighthearted post analyzing the psychology of built and modifiable vs provided and immovable spaces in the game #no its not late at night and i should not be doing other things (lying)

boyf left the house to go to the pub and ended up accidentally leading the search for a missing child?? predicaments follow this man everywhere

#long story short the kids carers dont know the area well #were standing out on the trail panicking in the dark with just their phone lights on #boyf walks past and they ask him if hes seen a kid or if he knows where she could have gone #this area is all little trails through trees and marsh and streams #and he grew up here so he was like ah fuck theres so many places #he says give me a minute #runs back to grab his fluorescents and big torch #then went back and was giving ppl directions on where to check #cops turn up and they dont fuckin know the area either #so they’re asking him about all the different trails and shit #quite the situation
