Oh, the queer urge to sit down, drink cheap wine, and rant about Scooby Doo to your besties.

#Listen #ok #Just Listen #when you have an IP that has been steadily churning out content #for the better part of 50 years #after a while it goes from ''goofy cartoon'' to ''cultural artifact'' #the thing that really fascinates me is the Scooby Fandom in particular #one of my favorite treats on Tumblr is those artists that inevitably tries their hand at redesigning the Scooby Gang #it's amazing to see all the different ways the characters can be depicted differently but still remain intact #it's like...twisting the dials of the various characteristics of the characters to different levels #while still keeping them recognizable (a thing the Velma series spectacularly failed to accomplish) #do not get me started ok I have FEELINGS about this #that are completely normal #Fandoms #Scooby Doo #Scooby Doo AU #Media Analysis

seriously can catastrophes stop happening for five minutes my brain is already fried from the ones we're already experiencing

#I fucking. missed d&d tonight by accident #I straight up forgot #and just didn't show up to the session #my sleep schedule is absolutely fucked #I should be sleeping now but brain won't shut up #my creative output is the lowest it's ever been and I've been in some level of depressive funk since like early january #I am just deeply unfathomably exhausted #like mentally and spiritually #all the time #my memory and sense of time are both shit #my spelling is worse than it used to be for some reason?? #I really don't know what to do to make my brain start functioning again it's frankly worrying me #I couldn't even handle college so it should come as no surprise that I'm reacting poorly to the world being a perpetual screaming trash fir #and yet #idk it's been hitting again lately that I have never succeeded at anything in my life and just keep tripping and falling up for some reason #fucking everyone is in hell right now and with my overall success rate I should be dead in a ditch but I'm actually doing spectacularly #due to a series of improbable accidents and weird circumstances that happened to turn out in my favor instead of completely fucking me #aside from the looming spectre of my various failed attempts to have some kind of life trajectory #it just doesn't feel like this can keep up forever #like surely at some point the luck has got to run out I can't just keep living like some kind of folkloric trickster archetype #but my motivation and sense of purpose kind of died after the last failed attempt so I'm still just here #doing whatever this is #maybe I should drive out to the coast #maybe staring at the ocean would fix me I've been away from it for too long #I mean it can't make me worse #I should wait until further into summer though so I don't have to drive back in the dark #everyone around here has trucks with those goddamn LED headlights and I've got a little sedan that's directly in their blast zone

My fill for the prompt 'one bed' because the only bed that truly matters is the king of cats'.

#guardian #da qing #guardianbingofest #look. i had a completely different idea for ages. but then this one came along. #is it wonky? yes. are the proportions all to pot? yes. did i make the various parts in the wrong order so the size is weird af? also yes #using that it doesn't have to be perfect it just has to be done mentality a bit too liberally i know #twabbbiih made a thing #wool felting #needle felting #he has no visible eyes because he's sleeping okay? #i veer wildly between making things that make me emo and making utter ridiculousness there is no inbetween #shout out to the yt tutorial i didn't use to make the cat because the skill level was too high BUT had the most catchy ear worm of a song #just been muttering meow meow meow meow to myself since #king of cats #zhenhun #guardian cdrama #my darling cat boy #and his dream treehouse

I know One Piece fandom gets called a cult and the show/manga is constantly called overrated by people who haven't seen it (including me in the past)... but it is genuinely that good. I'm so glad I gave it a shot.

#the only thing i don't like is how fights get stretched out over way too many episodes #i lose interest in them pretty quickly if they're just repeating the same beats over and over (like the fight at Baratie) #the arlong park fight was better because it had enough character vs character variety and dynamic changes to keep things interesting #arlong park put the main character in grave danger and gave the straw hats powerful and diverse opponents to fight before arlong himself #i think the fight against captain kuro was good but only because he's such a threatening and deadly presence on his own #his crew was completely forgettable and low-level whereas the fish men were all formidable opponents #and had personalities and unique fighting styles that actually challenged the straw hats #i just got through the whisky peak arc and thought it was incredibly well done as well with tight pacing and efficient fight time #the baroque works characters either gave zoro a genuine challenge or were quickly cut down and time wasn't wasted on them #plus the structured yet mysterious organization kept things interesting as various agents moved in and out of the fight #one piece

I love writers I love when they ramble on abt characters and their motivations, their core values and the reasons why they react to things in certain ways and having character interactions work off of each other due to their differing ways of viewing the world and in general I just love character analysis

#as someone who loves humans and human behaviours and figuring out why people react to things the ways that they do #uhhh I'm actually surprisingly really bad @ writing characters with those same traits 😅 #unless it is smth I can connect to on some sort of level like a few of my characters have issues that I specifically relate to #thereforee I can understand the ways they act in certain circumstances #BUT when it comes to characters that are like almost entirely outside of my wavelength it's pretty hard for me to understand how they work #and it's pretty basic habits and behaviours I just fuckin lack them in general #like the concept of clinginess or abandoment issues or wanting to stay around people who treat you badly or jealousy or missing people #also love like I understand my type of love but my type of love isn't typical from what I've seen from others #even some of my own past issues like dealing with trauma have kinda been lost on me especially bcuz I'm the type to ignore stuff #like I just ignored it til it came back to bite me in the ass and had to just kinda struggle with it and go completely numb #until I got tired of feeling that way and pulled myself outta it step by step and my various negative ways of thinking elude me #since I just gradually built myself up and rearranged my brain so that all negative thinking eventually turns into dust #whether be positive or purely neutral until I'm able to handle it better #REGARDLESS I try to get a sense of what these other traits are like and how exactly they work for people but it is VERY difficult for me #bcuz the stuff is just such an alien emotion to me like people get REALLY emotional about things that simply aren't a problem for me #and I wish I could understand why and what goes on in the brain that causes that but my brain just doesn't work that way #SOOO me trying to make characters of typical issues I see people having DOESN'T really work when I have no idea what's going on #like IN GENERAL my characters need to have more emotion behind them but the emotions I need them to have are #like I said before. something I totally lack ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ so I have no idea how to do it #I mean I think I need like a check list I need to make a list of traits my characters have in general cuz I never write anything down #it'd be easier to figure it out if I had words to go along with it and then I could figure out the behaviours behind those words #plus I need to draw my characters cuz I'm very much a visual person I can't get as good of a feel without some visuals along with it

I love Laura Kampf so much. Over half of her most recent video update on restoring/rescuing her 120-year-old house is her spontaneously building an entire mobile DJ cart from scratch, because a friend asked if she would DJ at her birthday party.

The light bulb casings used to be her cereal bowls.

#what it must be like to be her friend #knowing literally every time you stop by to visit there is at least 5 new batshit mad scientist projects in various stages of completion #that always turn out to be the coolest shit you have ever seen #god tier levels of procrastination #laura kampf

Pup - Matilda

“All of my flaws have become the things

That make you wanna destroy something

And the reasons you started are lost

Now that the feeling has worn off”

#PUP #Matilda #thought I was everything you need. I thought at least you’d wanna see it through #and I was caught in between givin’ up and callin' out to you #I thought we had more time. I thought I could make it up somehow #these three lines fucking still hurt me lmao #not me completely relating to this break up song with a guitar on various levels #Spotify

im not sure anyone is aware of how i struggle regularly over how dirty and gratuitous i should make my pr0n and if people wanna read that level of filth but also i DO wanna write it like that cause these people are allowed to be a lil nasty and filthy in their private lives. but this sure aint ur fluffy smut thats for sure

#i have multiple almost completed fics that are just #truly filthy nasty boys #in various levels of genderfuckery #and kink #and truly a grab bag of what genitalia anyone has at any given moment #but i dont know if people are ready for that

How many ocs do you have?

oh i counted this recently! the total was somewhere around 60? thats including every oc that i have but no longer actively work on and ocs whos designs i havent fully worked out yet. lots of broken pantheon characters fall under this second category because i have to prioritise and cant spend a whole week designing characters the audience wont see until literally years later lol

#a good chunk of them are bp characters lol cuz u havent seen this yet but that world is fleshed OUT!! #spread out over a total of 6 stories #with various levels of completion obvs cuz im working on bp i cant rlly spend a long time fleshing out #my magic hotel story LMAO

[vulpixelates]

my evil plan has worked... i've been talking about zariel and caerellia so much that my wife wants to start that game up again 😤🥰💖

#now to remake caerellia's character sheet #i need to nerf her a little bit/un-level her which is complicated bc she has so many bonuses from various things that i uh #did not keep track of well enough #ALSO i've completely lost her original notes from like 5 years ago aoifjeaoifjw #oh well #we will figure it out #this one is going to be an au from the original #*dykeposting #ttrpg rambles

Say what you want about small children and screentime–and I agree to it to some extent–, but I learned how to use a computer at 4 (thanks to my favorite game, Fisher Price Dollhouse) and learned to type at six, and now I don't have to look at the keyboard and can at least do basic maintenance, or at least look up the issue and try from there

#also i only learned how to read at six because of a Green Eggs And Ham computer game #and by fifth grade i was reading a collegiate level #i would never give my hypothetical young child unrestricted access to a smart phone #but i might get them a child-specific tablet and teach them how to use it but would make sure they're not on it all the time #I've read articles of various quality where kids are losing dexterity because they're swiping their fingers on screens #instead of physical play #and that's. not good. #but I wouldn't be a complete Luddite about it #social media is right out tho

feeling the sad little pathetic creature emotions this evening suddenly. i dont really want to dwell in feeling bad but it is a familiar deep sad feeling u know. itll be ok i just have to let it out

#to the tune of ghengis khan dont wanna feel like nooo one believes in meeeeeeee im experiencing like. something thats #akin to my very specific paranoia of being paranoid of everyone secretly hating me and talking badly about me or thinking im horrible #secretly where its like my brain is telling me that no one believes in me including my friends and logically i know this isnt true. i have #so many people in my life who i love and appreciate and who have supported me through hardships and who i want to support #in turn. but thats the thing with my paranoia and delusions yknow i can be at least somewhat aware that im being irrational but in the end #that doesnt make it go away. and my brain is just like. no one believes in you when it comes to the creative things you want to do #like my art and acting and poetry. and then my brain tells me that the people around me just pity me and dont want to outright #say that everything i make or try to create sucks because they feel bad for me. and again i KNOW this isnt true. and i #feel bad and feel like im being unfair to my friends bc if this paranoia so i dony want to bring it up to anyone beyond venting like this #and also i feel scared that somehow bringing this specific paranoia up would be like guilt tripping people into like being nice to me or #somethimg my words are weird but my braim very much is like you are not allowed to ask for support or tell people about being insecure #and i do think this overall has something to do with my deep issues of completely lacking any confidence in myself or my abilities #which is due to a life time of abuse etc etc and its hard to build up any confidence in myself when i am still stuck in #my toxic home with no real options to get out at this point for various reasons. but its like #what if i just suck at the things i love to do? what if my art is just bad or mediocre even? what if im a bad actor or a bad poet? what id #even though i feel a deep calling within my soul to create and do these things what if even though i only ever feel truly alive #when i am acting or painting. what if none of it is any good. and no one wants to tell me that because they pity me #again. on a certain level i know this is all just my paranoia and is unreasonable. but its a feeling thats really hard to shake off yknow #anyway. thank u if you read this all i prommy ill be ok i just had to get it out 💖

i was gonna post a side by side of barefaced 2018-2019 me vs 2022 me to show how ive managed to get my skincare routine perfect but i think i deleted all the old pictures 💀💀💀

#zenith.txt #it makes sense i was very insecure #i went on birth control in 2018 and it completely fucked up my face like i had very very bad acne #full face of it and it wouldn't go away no matter what i tried and even after i went off birth control 6 months later #which btw was not bc of the acne it was bc it was causing me to grow ovarian cysts anyways my skin barrier was fucked up for like #two years afterward and only this year have i gotten it under control again! im really digging my routine its so simple its like 4 things #i still get hormonal acne which is irritating but its so much better now and also less painful tbh #you'll just have to take my and my moms word on how bad it was for me #but yeah cerave resurfacing retinol serum ($16) skin proud gentle foaming cleanser ($10) stridex salicylic acid ($5) & elf moisturizer ($8) #plus seuolceuticals snail mucin amd tumeric mask ($20) & various sheet masks (usually under $20) of your chosing when needed #does wonders for my very very sensitive VERY dry acne prone skin #aslo do NOT use the retinol and acid in the same routine you'll Completely Ruin your skins health #i personally do a retinol retional rest day rest day salicylic acid rotation #also benzoyl peroxide can help clear acne but i dont need that level of strength anymore so i stopped using it #ANYWAYS all this to say birth control fucked up my hormone levels and health for YEARS even tho i only took it for 6 months #and now im finally getting back to normal #and by normal i mean my hormone levels are back to normal acne is a normal part of human skin and shouldn't be looked down upon

Found that list someone made of problematic authors and am fucking floored, the severe lack of critical thinking on display is astounding. You heard it here first folks: Shakespeare, Virginia Woolf, Harper Lee and Sylvia Plath have been canceled for racism. Not one mention of the really low hanging fruit like Lovecraft, Orwell, Nabokov... and the amount of ya authors on the list is like...

#personal post #critical thought have you heard of it!! #going on the record here and now to say that im tired and kind of concerned about the trend of completely cutting yourself off from a thing #bc the content or the creator fucked up in various ways #because its like... humans are messy and will fuck up and do bad shit but that does not preclude them from being able to do good #or make good things #you arent one or the other there is no black and white and trying to sort things into purely right or wrong categories #will both inevitably fail and result in you living a less rich life as you cut yourself off from everything that isnt perfect #also its really funny to me how murder is on the same level as plagiarism on this list. both equally bad clearly #half of this stuff is like authors rn being kind of dicks and the other half is people long dead getting canceled #for time period typical attitudes and writing
