#and i still ran out of episodes...

[deoidesign]

please take as much time as you need to rest and recover. burn out is so hard and takes so much to heal from. your art and your supporters will still be here when you get back :) take care <3

Thank you very much

Unfortunately, my situation doesn't really allow me to take the time I need. I've got a ~two month hiatus scheduled for my midseason, but much like my first hiatus I'll most likely be working double time during it...

It's unfortunate because I could really really use a bigger break!

Having the time and flexibility to work on other projects really fires me up and keeps me going, and being able to take a guilt free day off for family and friends is necessary to my mental health, and I've been having to turn people down lately...

This is a very kind message, and I'm sorry to vent in response! But I just feel transparency about the pressure I'm under is necessary and important. I'd love to take the time I really need, but due to deadlines and that pesky "needing money to live" I can't.

But, once the series is over I intend to take a pretty big break before I start whatever I'm doing next! I've got so many short stories and projects planned that I want so badly to get to, I can't wait to really get to truly dive in to them!

#im so sorry to take a nice message and respond like this! but just... trust me haha i know my supporters are genuinely here for me <3 #but webtoon... not so much unfortunately. i mean im sure i could take a longer break but theres the looming anxiety #that ill get in trouble or itll ruin my chances of working with them again etc etc #i took this week and i genuinely took it off. sort of? i flew to a convention which was exhausting #and i did paintings that i hope to print eventually #and i. started planning and prepping for a Kickstarter. for time and time again... #so ive still been working the whole time. but i love working! #i just... like to be able to work on things OTHER than time and time again... #and unfortunately for a few months. more than a few months. i haven't been able to do anything outside of it. #even all of my paintings have been for it cause i cant afford to switch my mindset! #my first hiatus i moved. worked on a pitch for my next series. and then i made two episodes a week the entire time #and i still ran out of episodes... #i dont know if im just not fast enough or if something is wrong with my brain that i have to fight to get it to focus but. #yeah i mean ive been burned out! been really burned out for like a year now #i can tell by how much better i feel after literally 1 week of doing anything else #and how tired i feel explaining this and knowing ive got another 3 months before i get another break #ok sorry i vented a lot more in the tags. it's hard to explain all of this eloquently and i like my posts to be somewhat professional #asks #anon #vent #delete later #and also how often my brain keeps wanting me to like. beg for 'nice words' from other people #(i always stop myself from asking people for compliments and stuff because otherwise i get very carried away and do it too regularly) #(people are very nice to me all the time. the kindness is endless and i need to let myself recognize and appreciate it rather than seek more #(its sort of a mental health thing I've been trying to like... force myself to do) #(for myself and my longevity but also for others sake lol. ive been bad about it in the past)

Yeah, as someone who was in boarding school a lot of my childhood- it's not neglect ffs. There are welfare roles, teachers, staff, other kids.

Do I have some issues with my parents now? Honestly yes, I do. I often wish they had been more involved.

But so do people whose parents have divorced or had to work a lot or honestly most people have issues with their parents.

Equating that to neglect??? When neglect is legally abuse? Is very serious

There are abusive/neglectful boarding schools but there are good ones and Tim went tk good ones

Yes boarding school can suck but between being home alone rather than with friends/teachers who raised me, I know which I'd pick. Most of my friends from college did not come from the same privilege I did and their parents also worked super hard but they didn't have the resources to pay for something like boarding school. I consider myself very fortunate!

Boarding school gave me community and an amazing education. My parents placing me there and paying for me was them taking care of me. And I can recognise that I'm extremely privileged for being able to have that education

(On anon because it's personal but no pressure to reply if you don't feel like it isn't relevant)

I think people throw around terms like negligence and abuse way too often when it comes to Tim without actually knowing what those terms mean and it results in people getting the wrong idea about his child hood which like considering I also grew up in a household were I never saw my parents since they both went out to work before I woke up in the morning and weren't home till after I went to sleep I don't get the fuss parents need to work it happens doesn't qualify as neglect and yeah we can talk about boarding school and how they can be good and bad but Tim never seems to have a problem with his and yeah I still think it would have been worse for Tim if his parents had flown him off to every corner of the earth like that's no life for a child

#ask #anon #Also I do find it funny #Bc someone on the last ask pointed out that Tim didn't always know where his parents were #And all I could think was #I'm 25 years old and I still don't know what either of my parents do as jobs or where they ran off to when I was a kid #Like I know one of my dad's jobs is farmer but that's not his main job #Is it normal to know what your parents do for a living I'd argue no #That's their business #I was busy playing Simpsons hit and run #Also speaking of Tim's parents just reminds me of another archeologist parent #Who sometimes has to leave for long periods of time #Bandit heeler he had a whole episode about having to leave sometimes

Why is B’Elanna Torres the cutest girl in the world?

#she's adorable....IMMEDIATELY she's like 'THIS ROBOT'S GONNA DIE IF I CAN'T HELP IT!!!!' and everyone around her's like B'Elanna....whocares #Hehehehhe nooo they're being sweeter than that #Harry-B'Elanna and Neelix-B'Elanna moments at the start were V sweet <3 #Harry being annoyed and tired but still willing to stay there and work with her if she wanted him to #Also Harry/B'Elanna should have been a thing. Harry says in season 2 what Tom didn't know until B'Elanna was LITERALLY breaking up with him #when she got so excited she just ran out of the medbay while still theorizing <3<3 #when she smiledsobig and shyly at being complimented by the robot <3<3 #Also LOVE Chakotay saying 'Tom!!!! Don't go alone it'll be dangerous.....for the shuttle :)' #I fucking love how everyone on Voyager's trying desperately to save B'Elanna and the robots are threatening to kill her and the crew #but B'Elanna and this robot are kinda just chilling and being cute friends together...god I hope they don't die #'I believe you can do it B'Elanna Torres.' / 'Hey! Don't send me flowers just yet >)' #'we did it!!! We actually DID IT~!!!!!' / 'YOU did it B'Elanna Torres.' #This robot is B'Elanna's biggest hypeman get him on the ship #OOOOHHHH I LOVE THAT LAST SECOND PLOT TWIST~!!!!!! #YEEEAAAH B'ELANNA MAD SCIENTIST EPISODE~!!!!! #'My GOD what have I done????' <- sexiest thing a woman can say v_v #I love no harm no foul episodes where it's just like 'hmmm WELL!' #episodes where something weird happens and will probably just keep on happening somewhere in space #B'Elanna Torres

MITCHELL AKUTAGAWA EPISODE!!!!!!!!!!

#MITCHELL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! #///AND/// AKUTAGAWA EPISODE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And Yosano and Kenji spotlight too. Episode written precisely for my personal liking #Too bad no Atsushi then it would have been perfect (╥﹏╥) At least we got his voice in the episdoe preview #Alright I **LOVE** Mitchell. This is not the space to talk about it properly but I just really like how flawed she is‚ #but also in a way that results funny and endearing. And I love love love how much she cares about her family and is loyal to it!!! #It makes her so noble and virtuous. I know she has so little screentime but really the way she's so harsh and in apparence self-absorbed– #But in reality so kind and altruistic... The way her hearsh ways are implied to be only a consequence of a life of struggles and her will– #to save her family's name through a noble behavior and appearance too... It makes her so complex and multilayered imo #AND just how her innate tendency to defend people spans out of her family too!!!! #In my interpretation she did NOT care for Hawthorne or like him. But she still gave her life for him because she just instinctively– #protects the people around her. I don't have any strong feelings for haw/mitch but like how to blame Hawthorne I would have– #fallen for her right that istant too. #Now to Akutagawa. I'm really endeared by this episode because I'm pretty sure that's when I started sympathizing with / liking him :') #Like that's the moment when the things Dark Era showed us and the canon Akutagawa behavior click together and the watcher goes “Oh. OH.” #At least I'm pretty sure it was for me. It's bittersweet but especially sweet. #One more thing is... Wow bsd really has been like *that* since the beginning hasn't it. It's kinda silly to think back to all the criticism #the latest arc got now. #The criticism regarding how the ridiculously high stakes have been solved seemingly effortlessly in a way that resulted very anticlimatic?? #That's ALWAYS been there. “Oh no the ada is done for if they found out our base!!” *holds literally ZERO consequences* #“Oh no the Guild is done for if they destruct Zelda!!” *holds literally ZERO consequences* #“Oh no the Guild knows were our clerk is!!” *holds near to ZERO consequences* #And #“Oh no Akutagawa died!” “Oh no half world population was tuned in vampires!” “Oh no Fukuchi obtained One Order!” #“Oh no Chuuya is a vampire siding against Dazai!” #It's really the same‚ isn't it? #But like‚ we're still glad all of it happened right? Because it makes the experience enjoyable lol. #It's really about enjoying the ride I suppose. #I have more to ramble about but I've ran out of tags so I'll be doing it on my main blog reblog later #random rambles

Got a flat tire about 40 minutes out of Algonquin park (so in the middle of nowhere enough that none of the 1 tire stores there had the tire we needed) and there were a lot of things that happened that day but most importantly I got to see a tow truck do it’s thing up close for the first time and— what a magnificent beast

#it felt like I was in an episode of mighty machines #I felt like that train guy #I could stop pointing things out to my friends #in other news I ran across the very fast highway to climb a tree in the centre. cause it had like a whole mini forest in the median #as is the ways of rural highways #anyways #cars are fun #the man drove us to a tims as well which was nice #and it was there that I darned my shoes for 4 hours lmao #truly still can’t believe I made it home #someone had to drive 4 hours to come. get. me. #insane #mac mumbles

[honeyblair]

so i was going through every yoi episode to see what shoes victor wears since im in the middle of drawing him and???? the show makes an EFFORT to feature yuuri's mizuno brand shoes and ONLY his mizuno brand shoes????? i counted FIFTEEN FUCKING SHOTS where yuuri's mizuno shoes are the focus. yuri on ice really is just the biggest mizuno sponsorship ad and we've refused to accept the truth

#spent a solid 30 minutes skimming every episode and keeping a tally on a sticky note because i had to get an exact count #AND 12 out of the 15 are from ep 1 to 4. THATS THREE SHOE SHOTS PER EPISODE #mizuno really took yuri on ice and ran #and is still running look at the newest yoi collection #i just thought this was funny #yuri on ice #yoi #yuri!!! on ice #mizuno

Not me thinking about a pre-disciple fic in which Shan Gudao makes a friend in Li Xiangxian and coming to terms with how the only person he has ever connected with is weighed down by an annoyance of a little brother.

#just MLC thoughts #they could have done so much more with him I swear #but nevermind #I guess they ran out of time #me singing “we could have had it ALL!!!” #but nope #I still loved the twist for the record #it was the absolute best #even though I was expecting it I was still happy when it happened #Episode 33 was peak of the series for me #fic ideas #mysterious lotus casebook #Shan Gudao #Li Xiangxian #Li Xiangyi #mlc spoilers #spoilers

[nd-frogoblin]

the tragic irony of getting a fanfic idea stuck in your head, only to find out you got it the wrong way round by accident?

Local writers are heartbroken

#I wanted to write a pirate au for hermitcraft #specifically #Geminitay as a merling #and Pearlescentmoon as a pirate #only to find out #gem is literally livong on a boat this season #and pearl ran around with a salmon head for an entire episode #:( sad #still gonna write it though

doing horribly

#it's just- aside from everything else going on it feels like there must be a part of lisbon (maybe deep deep down she does like to repress) #that hears this and wonders 'does he think that about me' #even after 10 years together she still has that fear - #i called you hundreds of times...not a reply; he's gonna quit someday; you ran away again....you ran away from me #(even after they get together! after blue bird! i don't know....if he's gonna stick around) #- that one day he is going to change his mind and that'll be it; he'll just walk out and they'll be done #and that almost makes more sense of her at the end of the fugue episode - it's a lot of things but most importantly #she just doesn't want him to leave (god it really is her blue bird) #and then for him to admit that he does have feelings for lorelei (something he's danced around but never actually said about her) #and still brush her aside as little more than a tool to get to red john...where does that leave them? what does that make lisbon? #what happens when she's no longer useful to him? #they make me so #tm

So here I am with yet another rant (what has this show made of me??). And yes, it‘s about Daemon again, although this time it‘s no analysis or admiration for detail. This post is simply about bad writing choices that deal with the topics of evilness and ✨unpredictability✨, as depicted in episode 5.

The bad writing in question stems from two problems: lack of a proper exposition and sheer ridiculousness. It‘s clear what the authors wanted to show with that last episode considering Daemon: he‘s not the good guy and he‘s so unpredictable. However, what Daemon wanted to achieve stays extremely vague because we get no explanation whatsoever — you know the fun thing about unpredictable characters is that while their actions might seem unpredictable to the ones around them, to themselves they make perfect sense. Daemon‘s actions though? Are we just to believe that he was married to Lady Rhea for over a decade, then suddenly decides to murder her to make room for Rhaenyra, and then upon realising that she is already engaged, he‘s like: ah shit nevermind, i‘ll take someone else then. (And then not pay any attention to his feelings for Rhaenyra for 10 more years?) And what even was that scene? If they wanted to paint him as the villain, fine, let him murder Lady Rhea, murdering characters exist in fiction. But the scene was written and executed so poorly, that half the fandom is now like: He absolutely came there to murder her, I can see it in his Darth Vader cloak!, while the other half is like: The only way this was his fault is if he turned a wizard now.

And then there‘s the exposition of it all: We can tell that the authors wanted to go through with their plan of making Daemon the villain. But quite honestly, I don‘t buy it. That‘s not to say that Daemon can‘t do 'bad' / morally questionable things in the future, and judging by the book there might be some 'evil' things to come, but here we can only go by what we‘ve seen so far in the show. And that wasn‘t a villainous character. In fact, Daemon hasn‘t done much else yet than supporting his family and acting petty. The only thing we could possibly chatacterise him as aggressive with was the City Watch scene, which we are told though was necessary as King‘s Landing had a huge problem with criminality and was even welcomed by the smallfolk of the city. Apart from that he has been rather neutral and oftentimes even chivalrous. Took the shame of yielding in the tournament against Ser Cole, other than the other knights we saw before. Never tried to take Rhaenyra‘s claim to the throne, and refused to kill her to make himself heir when given the chance. Told Rhaenyra to support her father at her mother‘s funeral, and told Viserys that he would love to stand by his side to protect him. Beaten a messanger? Honestly, in medieval times the bringer of bad news could consider themselves extremely lucky if they didn‘t end up with a knife through their throat.

Daemon was shown as impulsive, yes, petty and easy to provoke. But he wasn‘t shown as the 'villain'. He was the one who was to his best abilities by Rhaenyra‘s side, and she is portrayed as our main character after all.

Tl;dr: If you wanna make him evil, make him evil. But do so properly please. Because otherwise you‘ll just end up with inconsequent storytelling that will leave your viewers rightfully confused and one of your multifaceted characters a big questionmark of incredibility.

#daemon targaryen #house of the dragon #charlie rambles #hotd spoilers #for episode 5 #getting so many ptsd flashbacks to stranger things rn and i don‘t like it #my only hope is that they really ran out of time before their time skip so they tried to squeeze as much of the still missing #information into this episode as they could resulting in it all feeling extremely rushed and unmotivated #because this definitely wasn‘t the only plot hole in that episode #at least that would make you believe that hotd gets back to its prior good plotting and writing after the time skip #fingers crossed
