Blacked out in front of my tablet and woke up with sketches of my Touchstarved mc + Kuras my beloved. woops

#I found out dr. kuras is 6'6 I said hold on lemme get a stool so I can climb this man #touchstarved #touchstarved game #touchstarved kuras #kuras #sleepyscribble #oc.emma #my mc is meant to be a self insert but also like. I wanted to come up w a design and character arc and everything jkvkvk #so I ended up basing her on my personality/looks but taking her into a direction that would fit the game #she's like. me but 'characterized' and a bit exaggerated for the sake of being a character yk #the way she turned out is that she's basically a friendly happy go lucky mage who laughs at her own misery but hides #a deep layer of self loathing underneath all that bc of her curse #having been cursed all her life she believes she's a monster and the sunny personality is a way for her to 'make up for it' #but at the same time she feels like a farse. like she's only luring ppl in to an inevitable demise #and she thinks she's selfish bc despite knowing the danger she poses she still goes out there and puts herself among ppl #bc she craves human connection. even tho she feels guilty for 'indulging' in it #anyway I love the cursed mc concept in this game <3 it's been really interesting to think abt how that would affect someone #also I kept her physical features looking pretty much like mine #bc I wanted to draw myself in a cute way. teehee #but the clothing I was basically thinking like. early game simple clothing that she didn't rlly pick for herself #and maybe later I can have an updated design w something she would actually pick for herself

I won't forget again. #They are evil dumbass 4 evil dumbass and I think we are all missing out on the sheer potential of the comedy between these two. #They have way too much power and are using it for the wrong reasons - which makes them truly great villains. #And when things don't go their way they become piles of whining sludge. #Wang Lingjiao is forever fascinating to me even though we only get crumbs about her. #She's a servant girl who's greatest asset is her beauty and her attractiveness. #Meaning she's had a life being in the gaze of people with significant positions of power over her. #I can't help but read her childishness and petty tantrums as someone who has finally been given the chance to not feel powerless. #If she was a more virtuous type we might 'like' her more but honestly...I don't think she would have survived to this point. #WLJ has only known power hierarchies her whole life. Probably accused of seduction before she even understood what that meant. #I love contrasting her with mianmian because they have similar(ish) backgrounds but different approaches to moving forwards #But WLJ's story is about flying too close to the sun and mianmian's is about going too close to the water. #Like the sea mist dragging her down into complacency - all the sect powerplays are mandatory to 'go along with' if she wants to climb- #-the social ladder. Yet she is the cautionary tale (and a foil to JGY as well) she leaves before sacrificing her own morals. #Mianmian flies away with her wings only slightly plucked while those who sacrificed everything to reach for the top crash and burn.

drunk Bakugou that keeps blinking big wet eyes up at you while you help him get undressed and brush his teeth and wash his face. he’s slurring the whole time about how much he loves you and how pretty you are and how you’re the better part of him and how he’s gonna marry you and give you two and a half kids and a dog and a cat. muffles half of his confessions into your stomach where he keeps resting his heavy head, and doesn’t care about the tears and and toothpaste he’s getting on you in the process. no, he doesn’t remember everything when he wakes up, but he has an idea of what he’s said when you wake up with a grin, ready and armed to tease him.

#okay gn lol #I want to get this big man so drunk that he has to be carried like a burlap sack over eiji’s shoulder #the image of this has me in literal tears #he’s a lightweight too and I think that’s so cute of him #okay but Eiji who can hold his liquor really well 👀 #and tries to take care of you and bkg at the same time 👀 #but the two of you just concocted a plan of climbing this mountain of a man tonight 👀 #okay now let me write about caretaker Eiji who never really gets more than buzzed #and offers to care for you (and maybe bkg too 👀) after a night out 🏃🏽‍♂️ #I’ll write it in the morning for I yam sleepy #—new treat in the streets! 🍫 #bakugou treats! 🍬 #tw: drunk

Why is the prestige of an educational institution seemingly so important specifically in the US (i am not from there but why is the ivy league etc regarded as so much better than other unis if what is being taught is the same specifically in the humanities where you do not need expensive equipment)? Except maybe that if there is higher selectivity then the profile of the students will be of ones that are more ambitious / with better grades so overall the level would be higher and the teaching/learning experience would be more intense? sorry for this dumb question, i went to uni in the uk (i am from eu) and their class system and this whole way of thinking astonished me, a lot of arrogance+ignorance+immaturity imo combined, so i am trying to draw parallels about the anglo world i guess

briefly put, universities are now jobs training centers (in a way they've always been so, but not explicitly like this) and the ivies are an employment network like no other. employers will look at your application more favorably if you have an ivy+ on your resume, and you can attend events and/or socialize to get your resume on an employer's desk to begin with; they will disregard your resume if you're from a bad public school. ivies weren't seen as academically rigorous until fairly recently in the context of their long history (berkeley, CA is a presigious "public ivy" city college and hunter college, CUNY, used to be seen as prestigious "public ivies" until funding got choked off), but they were always playgrounds for old money. there's an undeniably higher selectivity for quality, but a lot of those students are the fig leaf the universities use to cover something called legacy admissions, which is when your admissions chances to a school get significantly boosted by having one or both parents as that school's alumni. legacy admissions are at play at all the ivies and nearly all universities in the country, but notably not at MIT. the other reasons why prestige gets so played up, or why the ivies dominate attention, is because almost the entire elite attended ivy+ colleges. in a sense, it's both a self-referential circle and a personal affair on the pages of our dailies and everywhere else (like oxbridge and eton in the uk) etc. this is combined with the general anti-intellectual trend in america, exemplified by significant quantities of stupid people who, for instance, imagine every college student attends CRT 101: from maoism to the sea classes at the ivies (in reality, the vast majority of americans attend publics, and the ivies are quite conservative)

#in a word: it's a major opportunity but not a guarantee to climb up the social ladder #i wish i could answer your question more in-depth about the contrast of public/private/ivy but i have too many followers #joe biden is a true man of the people by the way - he did poorly in a mediocre school #i think you've got to go back a long time to find a president who didn't attend an ivy+ #if followers want to comment on your experiences in the notes go for it

CC-2224 has always been the sharpest of the batch; he finishes his exercises early, soaks up information and repeats it with impressive accuracy. He already knows how to read and write nearly a year and a half beyond his age.

But now it’s all gone. Every bit of it.

CC-2224 doesn’t even know his letters. He smiles when CC-3636 tries to help him remember them. His handwriting is nothing as it was before: shaky, lumpy. He makes letters set in front of him but connects them to no alphabet or purpose.

He doesn’t engage with controls in simulations. Even his ability to feed himself is not half as sure as it was before.

And after a while, Alpha starts to realize that CC-2224 can pinpoint that something is wrong, but he doesn’t know what. He’s not reacting the way everyone else reacts at the arrival of one brother or another; he’s not able to work out the relevance of lessons.

And worst of all, his batchmates are wary of him. They, too, know that something is wrong.

[lastoneout]

Starting to think this really is a me thing, but like I guess I've never viewed fashion so simply as "if the way you are dressing is bad, just dress differently, it's a choice". Maybe it's because I have sensory issues but I legit have always dressed in clothing that Is Comfortable. That is my be-all-end-all goal. Practically, comfort, and then stuff that I think looks nice. And every time someone has like, tried to get me to dress differently because I'm "doing it wrong" I just end up feeling uncomfortable and going back to what I used to wear. (Once I even had a bully tell me that they wanted to sign me up for 'What Not To Wear' and when someone explained the show to me I was like "oh, okay, so my worst fucking nightmare"). And that's not to say I don't change my style or try new stuff out or whatever, or sometimes what I find comfortable changes, but like....if the clothes I find comfortable go out of style I don't care, I'm just going to keep wearing them because they're comfortable.

And like, now with my knee braces basically the only pants I can wear with them are yoga pants, and I know people think just wearing yoga pants is "bad" but like, I have to wear my braces as close to my skin as possible, the skinniest of skinny jeans are still thick enough to get in the way, and I HATE skirts so like, I have to wear yoga pants. This is not a choice. And if someone mocked me for it and tried to justify it as "I just want you to wear more flattering clothes" I would be pissed bcs it's not a fucking choice and I don't care if it's flattering, I care about not fucking up my knees!

I guess I just find it interesting that people do view fashion as something that is easy to change, because for me it really isn't.

#Me And Mine #continuing this conversation I guess #it is interesting to think about #hell part of the reason I've never been super comfy in “girl clothes” is because of how unpractical they are #how you can't climb and move in them #you can't get them dirty #I don't want to wear clothes like that #I want to be comfortable

related to the previous post, not sexual or suggestive, but I was honestly impressed when I saw that audibly went "damn", impressed chop top, or even the actor himself bill moseley could do that

Like damn dudes strong

I don't write on confessions usually, but, I have to break the news to everyone... Bill Moseley had a stunt double.

I believe that his stunt double was Daniel W. Barringer. (I can find one site that says that he was specifically, but in the credits, the stunt casting just has the generic "stunts" title for all the characters. Like Bob Elmore played stunts for Bubba, and so did Tom Morga, and they're both listed there). In any case, Bill Moseley didn't do all the climbing scenes himself 😅

So it's definitely something that Chop Top did and he is definitely strong AF in the canon of this movie, but it's not something Bill did, specifically.

#✏️ #confession #Chop Top Sawyer #Choptop #Bill Moseley #The Texas Chainsaw Massacre #tcm #Texas Chainsaw Massacre #The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2 #tcm 2 #slashers #I do really really like Chop Top climbing and pulling himself up everywhere. He's got some upper body strength for sure as a character 💪 #So if anyone confesses anything else about this - I have the other parts of him pulling himself up the mountain ⛰️ #I just wanted to clarify the stunt double stuff because I think it's a fun fact and not everyone realizes they didn't do their own stunts

don and peggy are the example of not platonic not romantic but a secret third thing

jon hamm once described their relationship as romantic but not sexual, which i think is close but not quite accurate because there is a certain sexual element present even if there is not sexual attraction. by which i mean peggy feels offended don never made a pass at her, even as she resents people insinuating she slept her way to her job. but don goes after every woman, so the fact that he doesn't show interest is an insult to her - another way she's not up to his standards and feels like a brushed off child. don, on the other hand, is deeply jealous of her relationship with ted and it's not about their affair, per se, it predates that and is tied up in the business, but his resentfulness clearly grows after he learns they're romantically involved. he normally has little to no interest in her love life but when it's ted or duck - people don feels are trying to replace or usurp him - then suddenly peggy having a sexual relationship with them is adding insult to injury. her boyfriends are of no importance because peggy will always put her job, and therefore don, above them. but the idea of a man who could replace him, be better than him at his job and not be eaten away by the hollowness of it, while having the nerve get peggy in a way don never will and for peggy to be attracted to them in turn, as if maybe there's a better version of him that she would want. well, that gets to him. the absence of sexual tension becomes sexual tension snake eats tail.

#mad men #kaitlin speaks #peggy olson #don draper #don isn't threatened by pete in the same way so i don't think he'd be jealous if he knew #but he would do some version of making roger climb the stairs until he puked #bc he feels infringed upon in a way he doesn't want to think about too deeply

"you hate this photo, your mother kisses it when she goes to sleep, she kisses it like a rosary. she holds it like a prayer. she asks herself where you went. she tries to forgive herself for not knowing one day would be the last you smiled wide enough to scrunch your nose up. she forgives herself for not remembering it. you hate yourself. you hate the way the fat on your body rolls and undulates, you know the flesh on your bones in this picture must be an illusion, its unbefitting of g-d."
