Ashes to Ashes, Dust to Dust.

#Do you ever think about the fact Ted held the love of his life in his arms while she died? #Do you ever think about the ash covering his hands? The dust stuck inbetween his fingernails? His tears making the ash stain his palms? #Heart in hand - interlocked with all his love between each finger - desperatly trying to not let it fade away? #Thinking about since the Old Testement ashes have been a symbol of repentance and penitence - a token of self-abhorrence and humiliation #Specifically ‘Wherefore I abhor myself and repent in dust and ashes’ (Job 42:6 KJV) and the entire concept of Ash Wednesday #I know that probably wasn’t the langs intention but as a ex-church kid I can’t stop projecting religious imagery into media I like #also is anyone surprised I drew this man with a clock and a halo again? I physically cannot stop myself from doing it #Anyway I’m not sorry for drawing this but I’ll go back to being a silly goofy guy with my fanart and tags….until next time :) #ted spankoffski #theodore spankoffski #JennyBear #Jenny nmt #Jenny starkid #god I feel so evil for tagging Jenny #starkid #starkid fanart #team starkid #starkid productions #time bastard #starkid time bastard #time bastard nightmare time #nightmare time #starkid nightmare time #hatchetfield nightmare time #nmt #hatchetfield #hatchetverse #hatchetfield universe #fanart #my art

OC in Symbolism - part 1

Alyra almost got Hope as a feeling in direct quote to Miranda Priestley. The other blorbos will be updated soon, I am VERY normal about cohesive palettes.

Part 2 with Hawkes and Shepard

#my oc in symbolism #dragon age #templates #aisling lavellan #alyra mahariel #radha lavellan #greypetrel #that purple and yellow palette gives me life #also sextants are evil #it's been a nice exercise in graphic and in reducing down to ONE thing #100% would recommend #I would have done the main three together but we wouldn't have a gradient

(see tags/below the cut for more)

sorry for the lack of martin and other wild kratts crew i am drawing them i promise i just love chris so much and have since i was a kid watching zaboomafoo. also here is a transparent version for anyone who wants it <3

#wild kratts #chris kratt #art #my art #also i have thoughts about zach’s weird obsession with having a chris hologram #the hologram has slight imperfections/differences because zach can’t look at chris without wanting to combust #sorry i am a chris/zach shipper 😔😍 but in the dynamic that zach is in love w chris and chris legit forgets he exists #i will be drawing more evil chris sorry not srry .. he is s*x symbol

my beautiful wonderful morty oc who dies horribly for the plot <3

- angel gets her nickname from her dimension code … and bc shes oh so lovely ^_^ oh and bc she dies.

- hes super good at knowing what appeals to ricks and so tries to help the other citadel mortys (and notably emorty) to… act right. and hopefully keep their ricks. and not get hurt

- she gets lucky with her first rick being nicer than most… but his next rick is ur standard abusive rick. he ends up getting angel killed through carelessness or smth similar

- emortys closeness w angel is part of what endears him somewhat to morty prime later on. if anyone cares.

#more notes under the cutttt :] #rick and morty #morty smith #… can i use that tag for this or will i get attacked by wolves #morty oc #morty a-831 #artsbotz #YAYYYY MY BEAUTIFUL WONDERFUL SON …… #ok ummm some more stuff i didnt wanna type up properly #designnn wise. ok this is a silly specific thing i decided on where mortys have their hair parted on the right. but emorty is on the left #like hes mirrorrrrred. and also silly right = good / left = evil symbolism #i loveee eye colour symbolism too w mortys (and ricks) … #i think most mortys are like an even mix of blue and brown eyes #but angel has blue specificallyyy to match morty prime. yahhhooooo #oh and emorty has brown to contrast them both … and to parallel c137… etc #the long hair is just for fun and gender reasons BUT the hair over the eye is supposed to symbolise like. emortys eyepatch #(and also the fact that she dies from getting shot in the head.) #the hairclip does smth similar. #oh speaking of. im not totally decided on how emorty gets the hairclip back #but current idea is he manages to bust into where they keep all the dead mortys #he seems to have a pretty extensive knowledge of the inner workings of the citadel even early on sooo. its just a matter of When and How #he learns different things #btw he keeps the hairclip forverr. takes it w him out of the curve and all #anyways ig the main concept behind angels relationship w emoty is like. she does everything perfectly. acts exactly how she needs to #and its still not enough. shes still victim to the vicious system of the citadel and is thrown away like garbage either way #i imagine emorty to be kinda disillusioned stright out the test tube lol .. but this is part of what solidifies his hatred for the system #AND. for Sellout Mortys. #ok i can barely think n read rn .

thinking about lottie desperately saying to nat “just because you don’t understand something doesn’t make it evil” when she’s been struggling to understand herself and her illness/abilities with and without her medication her entire life and being told by her parents for years that it’s shameful and a bad thing and… anyway I’m gonna go cry about lottie matthews again

#lottie matthews #yellowjackets #have we all considered that she’s just a little bean who needs to be protected? #when am I not on my crying about lottie matthews bullshit #my feelings for lottie matthews could power cities #nat: this wilderness thing is all bullshit. also nat: why would you use the symbol?? it was around a dead body! evil! #I still love you nat #but you’re on thin ice when you’re being mean to lottie #ha. thin nice. bit like jav-*gunshot*

[lord-squiggletits]

In the last salty asks post I unintentionally went on a tangent in the notes about how JRO wrote religious characters which is like actually something I want to bring up on its own so like

Is it just me or does JRO have some real misses when it comes to writing religious characters? Not like every religious character is badly written or evil, but like... several of the ones that are fall into really bad or unflattering/shallow stereotypes? It's hard to put my finger exactly on why I feel that way bc he does write some actually good religious characters (aka Cyclonus).

For example, characters like the Functionist Council and Star Saber are fine to me because I'm like. Well Functionism being religious in origin makes sense, it's an interesting interplay of how religion influences the state/how the state leverages religion to bend the populace to its own whims. Religious bad guys =/= all religious people bad. Star Saber is just some random zealot that wasn't meant to be that deep at all, and eh the Inquisition-type religious zealot can be cool even if it's just the vibes of it.

But then there's stuff like... Tyrest being a normal, rational, not particularly religious guy until he gets shot with a bullet that gives him brain damage, causing him to start ranting about Cyberutopia and thinking God is personally talking to him in his brain...? Like, idk, was it really the best idea for an antagonist to go "he is evil because he got brain damaged against his will w/o even knowing what really happened to him and also because he's brain damaged he's now literally delusional and became a religious (and genocidal) maniac." It comes off as really bad taste/not thinking the implications through as far as how it reflects on religious people (bc the whole "religious people are literally delusional and stupid to think that their gods could possibly exist" thing is tired and offensive). Not to mention kind of ableist w/ the whole "oh he became evil bc he got shot in the brain and now there's literally something wrong with his mind."

(Doesn't help that the MTMTE logbooks revealed that the original idea for Tyrest was to have his killswitch be about trying to identify and execute all of the criminals/"guilty people" on Cybertron, basically an extension of his role as Chief Justice which makes so much more sense and is way more interesting and compelling???? Certainly better than (gets brain damaged) "Ah I'm now going to genocide all cold constructs because God told me to")

And then Drift with spectralism which...which... basically the extent of that whole religion is the name of a single festival (the Lost Light festival the eponymous ship was named after), and some stuff about face/body paint and colors having spiritual symbolism, then the Guiding Hand/Primus stuff that's also shared with Primalism. But then you have Drift who's the main representative of this religion basically being written as a phony who doesn't even believe in the shit coming out of his mouth. Or if his beliefs are sincere, the way he acts is basically just "oooooh, I sense unclean vibes and read into the energy of the universe" which is played for laughs or mocked by the other characters most of the time. And Drift's character is written so inconsistently (and the general religious worldbuilding so one-dimensional) that it's hard to tell if Drift is supposed to be read as some kooky fake hippie type or if he's genuinely a representation of Spectralism in general. Like, idk, the best JRO could come up for for building a religion was "they wear certain colors and patterns on them and vaguely talk about sensing energy from the universe?" It literally feels like baby's first fictional religion or like, religion as understood by a non-religious/atheist person who sees religion as nothing more than an aesthetic or some quirky rituals.

I'm not saying the story had to be about religion or have religion be brought up in every conversation, it's just...... the way he wrote/did worldbuilding for it comes off as as very "non-religious person who doesn't have any particular understanding of religion/why people are religious tries to write what they think religion is about" and most of the time it's kinda cringe.

#squiggposting #negativity #discourse #again i'm reiterating that my critique isn't 'all the religious characters are evil/all the evil ppl are religious' bc that's not true #it's more just that the religious characters are in general written as mediocre at best or offensively at worst #also in the case of drift who's (for better or worse) asian coded #his religion doesn't even have a strong resemblance to any traditional japanese beliefs either #like. all religions have spiritually significant colors or garments or symbols #the whole 'energy of the universe' could be similar to daoism maybe but it's never elaborated on besides that #just. mediocre mediocre mediocre religious worldbuilding/character writing

i dont think its a breakup scene. i think the mlvn breakup will coincide with mike coming out to her so it’ll be MUCH more emotional. tears, hugs, the whole shebang. i think this (if its about their relationship at all) is more similar to jancy’s “are we good?” scene at the end of s4.
