#and holy shit was it a leap

[jo-ann-kramer]

I watched a fight scene from Dr Strange MoM (accidentally) and HOLY SHIT.

It looks like a cheap videogame, the CGI sucks ass. The humour is so out of place - it's supposed to be snarky and witty and quirky but it just gives me secondhand embarrassement. The dialogue is just bloody horrible. The lighting is so unnatural it feels like I'm watching Barbie.

I'm telling you, it was exactly 3 minutes more of the new marvel than I wanted to experience.

Not even Elizabeth Olsen's acting could salvage this scene, but that was certainly really good.

#dr strange #doctor strange #multiverse of madness #shit #bad cgi #marvel #mcu #phase 4 #or phase 5 #fuck knows #i swear it was pain #i watched it on accident #i was watching thor's entrance to wakanda from iw #and holy shit was it a leap #elizabeth olsen

Update!

Hey! figured id hop back on this blog to give any lingering followers an update

I sorta took a huge break from tumblr and even online in general at one point, and haven’t really gotten around to being more active until recently, so ive got a few things on the agenda to address

First! this blog itself will likely remain not very active, i now have a separate account so going back and forth doesn’t seem appealing to me. that said i wont be deleting this or any other blog, id rather it be archived.

Second, i do have a personal blog ive been using mostly to goof off, @cosmic-chronologer , I don’t plan on posting actual content on it but if someone needs to reach me regarding something thats now the blog to go to

Thirdly! Moonblossom is fine, I moved the blog over to my current account and have been writing up a rough draft for the actual storyline. Ive been taking it easy lately so itll probably be awhile before anything concrete gets posted though

And lastly! To jumpstart myself back into being more active in general, I just opened up an ask blog for lofi dreamtale and the original concepts i had for the verse, @ask-lofiverse . As for “versecore”, me wanting to make it an original story was mostly because i wasnt in the utmv fandom at the time. but im back to drawing skeletons again✨ I had a lot of fun when I first made lofi dreamtale and it seemed like a good starting project to get my groove back. Ive been setting things up for a few days now so hopefully any past lofi dreamtale enjoyers like it

and that should be everything?? I know its probably a lot but thanks for reading anyway if u did!

#blog update #srry for leaping into the void for a year #holy shit its been a year

when it’s not a leap year, do you celebrate your bday on the 28th, or the 1st of march?

when it is not a leap year my family feels bad for me for not having a bday so they treat me like the Most Specialist Princess In Tha World on BOTH days !! :]

but that's just my family. admittedly, I've never met someone with my same birthday, so i have no idea if it's common or not!

#my postings #my familys so nice theyre like damn. ur bday dont exist today.... its ok u get two cakes and im always like HOLY SHIT TWO CAKES #i USED to do this fun thing where on my leap year bday we would have a bday party at chuck e cheese #and when we reserved it we would tell them my leap year bday #and it used to be really funny. like when we brought in a full 4 year old and was like SHES ONLY 1!!! #or an 8 year old and were like SHES ONLY 2 YEARS OLD!! LOL :] #but past when i was 16 it stopped being so funny and the chuck e cheese ppl were like hey. pls stop. lying to us

oh this professor gave us no instructions whatsoever for this assignment. we're supposed to draft a demand letter and pretty much all these directions r is two sentences explaining generally what a demand letter is, a few (bad) examples, and then she pretty much just tells us to make us our own facts and details of a torts case from scratch and draft an entire demand letter from that. this is a 2000 level class in a certificate program for people who arent already in the legal field. if i were my classmates i'd be terrified 😭 like i see demand letters everyday and i'm still like ?????? what do you want from me?? a creative writing exercise and a legal writing exercise in one how fun thank u soooooooo much

#like nothing about formatting nothing about professional writing nothing about like. CONTEXT #oh im so glad that i already read demand letters on the daily at work bc oh my godddddd #she seems to forget that we're not all also lawyers with 30 plus years of civil law experience??? #like she treats class like we're all her peers having a fun little get together which like on one hand is cool but also #she ends up skipping over stuff that people like. need and not explaining herself at all when she makes these huge leaps #thank god i have already taken a legal writing class and also have worked in a civil lit firm for two and a half yrs bc holy shit #if this was my first exposure to the legal field i would be crying rn #talk #text #mine #ignore.mel #not nct

Life update in the read more :]

My new job starts next week!!

It was nuts how quickly I got hired relative to the interview time; I interviewed a week ago and essentially got hired on the spot bc literally an hour later, I got a call saying I'm in!!

It's so wild... I feel extremely lucky about how it all happened (and just in time bc my savings was starting to run out). I feel so many different emotions about this.

Nervous.

Excited.

Relieved.

Exhausted.

Uneasy.

Validated.

Worried.

Uncertain.

Grateful.

Fortunate.

I've always been an anxious person, especially when it comes to performing tasks for others. Right now, I'm anxious whether I'll actually do well at this job and if I'll be able to keep my work-life balance in-check.

I'm very prone to burn out. Heck, I feel like I'm recovering from something adjacent to burn out right now, due to the past 3 months of stress-filled job hunting alone. Even if I end up deciding that this company and/or role isn't for me, I never want to get to the point where I desperately feel like I NEED to leave in order to become sane again. It feels like it might be easy to fall into the same trap in this job and I'm a little worried about that.

But worries aside? I'm legit overjoyed :)

Instead of letting my anxiety spoil my mood, I've really been trying to celebrate this, because if I don't make a conscious effort to commemorate the victories in my life, I'll only remember the negative feelings I've felt along the way.

So cheers if you've read this far and happy October :]

#dyntalks #ive done a lot these past several months #i drew #made new friends #visited and reconnected with old friends #tried a TON of new things #actually RESTED #like REALLY rested #regained sanity #regained a sense of independence #and LIVED instead of just surviving #granted there were def some lows in the whole experience #bc this was def a leap of faith #but god im so glad i took it bc it ended up being worth it #holy shit #also sorry if ive been quieter than usual im still kinda recouping rn

So, I've learned enough music theory to competently compose the soundtrack for my fangame.

In the span of about six months, give or take.

Which is wild. I had actually decided it was, for whatever reason, just Not Possible For Me Specifically. And of course that's obviously bullshit, almost anyone can just go out and learn whatever the hell skill they want, but it's not easy to overcome a mental block you've held since high school. I really, truly thought I was just Bad At Music Theory, because I had a combination of a shit band director who couldn't teach music theory, and the few other people in the short-lived jazz band were already proficient on piano, meaning they already know the subject matter no matter how badly it was taught.

I realized this two days ago, 20+ years after the fact.

The part where he tried to get us to improv with no knowledge of even what the tonic was, let alone anything more than that, was like...look man I've never been able to improv. Anything. Ever. Well, except puns and topical humor, I'm unfortunately good at those. Anything else, I just freeze to hell and literally cannot think or even speak or move, it's too much pressure for me. "Just make something up, it's easy!" will unbluescreen me, but only to burst into tears and try to fistfight someone, so. Y'know. Not my bag, seriously.

But planning ahead of time? Writing something out? Yeah, it turns out I can do that! And I can cover things without too much difficulty, even! I did a bangin' cover of a Mega Man X series track I want to use. Only took a couple of days and it's so exactly what I had in mind that I've probably listened to it on loop for 10 hours now in total, mostly in disbelief that it exists in a way other people can hear it. I've got several original compositions, from stage clear jingles to a full stage track or two. I've got arrangements of stuff — the intro track is part Mega Man 2, part original, and part Mega Man 10, in that order, and it sounds really legit, and the credits music is the same only expanded and it's like. I didn't believe I had it in me. Now I can't seem to get it out me fast enough and I keep losing sleep in favor of Famitracker. I feel like I unlocked something in my head that's been waiting for ages and now it's not gonna wait any longer.

And I was listening to a song I really like, Blinding Lights by The Weeknd, and went, "...wait, I bet that hook goes like..." I played it out on keys quickly, figured out it's entirely built on a Cm4 chord, and realized the song itself is in Cm. I've never done that. Not that quickly, anyway; eventually if I transcribe enough it something I'll figure it out, probably, but not within a minute or two, and not that easily. From there I realized, I've got the key, I can hear the intervals, therefore I can find the chord progression, therefore I could probably do an 8-bit cover of it in...eh, give me 6-8 hours since it's a full-length track.

Anyway hello, on top of being a pixel artist and game dev, I'm a chiptune composer now, suddenly! And it's cool as hell. I'll have to upload something here soon, though I think I have to do it via desktop and I'm mobile right now having breakfast out somewhere.

#Jack of all trades master of several #I have a lot to learn but I've also learned a WHOLE lot #like foundationally everything past this is gonna be experience and experimentation #not to mention my pixel animation is improving by leaps and bounds but it feels less unexpected anyway #I know I can draw and animate that's not news exactly #I legitimately did not know I could make music #I feel so powerful you have no idea #I've had to stop and get the dust out of my eyes a few times while listening to my own stuff lol #it's just that HOLY SHIT to me
