#bad credit history

[filmnoirsbian]

Imagine being a rampant misogynist and then "gifting" your intellectual property to the public domain under the guise of "keeping it out of the hands of bad people" and then being surprised when people (esp women) assume the crime of those "bad people" was an intention to diversify the story 🤔🤨 I want to see the emails.

#this is abt fables btw. #like ok grown man who wrote one of the worst fridgings in dc history (which is really saying smth) and then said u wanted to shoot #all the women fans upset by it tell me more abt how dc wanted to give writing credit to “bad people.” I'm just curious. #tcp #oh the things we invent

been seeing a lot of talk about how bad a lot of the popular picks for movie shadows voice actor are recently and thats true but does anybody remember when people were saying tom holland should voice tails . horrible

#theres the obvious problem of how he sounds nothing like tails #and also the thing of people always wanting to give voice acting roles to random movie stars instead of actual professional voice actors #but i feel like this one has like. an extra layer in terms of how bad and insulting it is #because people were saying this after the first sonic movie came out which had tails in the post credits scene voiced by his game va #who is talented and good at her job and is a professional va with a ton of experience #(she has more voice acting credits than all of her sonic 2 costars combined if i remember correctly) #and also a history with This Specific Character so shes familiar with him and how he should be portrayed #but obviously shes not good enough because shes not as big of a name as the other people involved in the movie #obviously she has to be replaced with some random celebrity who doesnt fit the role at all and can barely voice act (sarcasm)

Rock Trolls shouldn't of been the ones to want to "unite" everyone by making everyone the same as them

said this earlier on twitter but seems easier to say/explain on tumblr idk why anyway

on twitter i said:

"can i speak for a second and say I wish in the second movie it wasn't the rock trolls trying to make everyone the same? its exactly what punk irl isn't about (rock came from punk) idk, I feel it could've been more interesting too if it was a diff type"

(i think some of the things i said there was incorrect like rock coming from punk but who knows i get my timelines mixed up sometimes LOL if that is incorrect ignore i sowy) anyway

i was thinking abt that again bc i think its interesting and like... to talk about it more here like- hm... idk

(click read more or something if you're genuinely interested in this lol)

i wish in the second trolls movie that the rock trolls was not the ones to be trying to make everyone the same as them, i can't begin to describe that is the entire opposite of what "rock" really is, or at least the type of rock they was displaying is the opposite of what it is

they was leaning a bit into the "punk rock" typa vibe with them due to their designs and such, the music not so much but design wise they feel like they lean towards punk rock, and if thats the case we can assume that "rock" in the movie also encapsulates "punk"

so with that being said it bugs me just a tad bit, that rock of all of them was used to be the ones to be like "we want to make everyone like us! make everyone the same to unite us!" bc thats so far from what actual punk is, in fact the whole thing about punk is to go against authority and express ourselves (yk, our differences)

ik im probably nitpicking a bit but i grew up with a punk for a dad (as in he was literally around when punk was formed, 1970's) LOL, its been apart of my life it is apart of my life so i know a bit about punk culture and what they stand for

SO IDK at the end of the day i dont really care, its a kids movie and i can see by default why they chose rock out of their options to be such a role for the movie, but idk! it just makes me a wee tiny intsy bit :( as punk literally does not stand for uniformity, it fights against systems that wants us to all be the same, it fights for individualism

but w/e, punk has that "aesthetic" that makes it easy to be like "wow theyre intense" bc visually they can be intense LOL, they're also easy to paint as """the bad guys""" due to their aesthetic (big quotes around the bad guys as more near the end as we know barb wasnt really trying to be evil, nor in general are the rock trolls aggressive and/or evil inherently)

anyway to end this off i love barb and i love the rock trolls, theyre so awesome i wish we had more time to develop barb a little bit more felt like she didnt get the screentime she deserved imo, live laugh love barb i dont express my adoration for her enough

if i delete this sorry i got anxious i dont expect this to get attention but if it does (positive or negative) im going to delete it (i have bad social anxiety)

soz if you did find this interesting and i delete it blehh

#issak.txt #trolls #trolls dreamworks #rock trolls #barb #queen barb #anyway dont take this so seriously bc at the end of the day idgaf enough #its a kids movie with a REALLY good message about differences along with history and much more #and i loveee it <3 i love the second movie sm its REALLY good #dont think people give it enough credit sometimes honestly #but yeah just a very minor small nitpick of mine #at the end of the day i dont care that they chose rock trolls for that specific role #im just overly aware of punk and what it means to be punk #im going to delete this post if this gets too much attention btw i got bad social anxiety #and im not up to debating/discussing things tonight. im tired #k bai

KHAN: 1992. 2022. 2052. Each time you make an attempt on my life, you fail — miserably, I might add. You said so yourself. How time and time again you cannot complete your mission, that it is as though time itself is pushing back against you. Tell me, do you know what the definition of insanity is?

SERA: What's your point?

KHAN: The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results. So do something different: join me. SERA: Join you? And here I thought I was unhinged. Seriously, they don't tell you just how screwy all this time travel stuff can make you. But you… you really are crazy. KHAN: I am a man who sees the truth. We can do great things together, you and I. We can build a new world. Creature a new future, one in which your people and mine are superior, as we should be. I believe it is our fate. That every missed opportunity and ripple of reinsertion was to lead us to this moment right here, right now. Do you deny it?

SERA: No.

KHAN: Excellent. Excellent. Then let us discuss it further. SERA: I'm all ears.

I've been off school the past 2 days because I was sick, but I have to go back tomorrow and I have 3 big tests😭😭

#one is a playing assessment for band tho #but its a big part of my grade so if i mess up itll be really bad #and then i have a math test #which isnt that bad and its on stuff that o learned last year #but the scary one is history #theres like a ton of vocab words with it and i cant rely on extra credit from fhe packets we did because im missing two of them #cuz i wasnt in class

[sage-the-unwise]

i think i've figured out why vanilla rain world and downpour feel so different to me

vanilla rain world is primarily a survival game with some metroidvania elements, and downpour is primarily a metroidvania with survival elements

neither one is better than the other inherently, they are similar but different experiences that cater to different audiences with different tastes in gaming

#credit to @/rae5425 and their comment on Neatherback's rain world video for putting me on this brainwave #essentially dp is an optional rain world metroidvania where you get to do all the survival stuff and be really relevant to its history too #which is fun and appealing but ultimately not the same as the vanilla game where you are an creacher living in a world that sucks real bad #and doing your level best to survive and move beyond its metaphysical confines individually #i think this also explains why that sort of rift happened in the fandom on here earlier this year #its because both camps are basically fans of two different games with similar but different gameplay set in the same fictional universe #that do different but related things with their stories and themes #sage screams incoherently

lol my landlord just let me know theyre selling my apartment and to plan to move out within the next two months

[edwardseymour]

so the author of jane seymour: an illustrated life reposted my ‘jane seymour x haunting through art’ compilation post on her facebook page …

#i’m not mad it’s just weird to see. they posted quotes that i found with MY underlines it’s just jarring to see... #this is not as weird/bad as that time i spoke to [redacted] (a famous historian) abt something #and then a week later they used my points and the exact way i phrased them in an online history discussion with no credit to me #this isn’t a big deal this isn’t anything at all it’s just such an odd thing to see MY screenshots of quotes with MY underlines reposted #like i’m there but i am not really there #DOES remind me that i own their book and need to read it

"Hello! I have noticed a [discrepancy]. You appear to be a fox, but your [structure] is composed in a way I have not seen before. You have two [tails], when one is typically expected. Can you explain this discrepancy?" (from webmaster!)

     Big and sentient computer screen...      ...Yeah, sure. Why not.

     The other's questions, though blunt, are far from misunderstood. It's like seeing a guy with a third arm, you'd rightfully be curious as to how they came into possession of a thing like that. It's... a bit of a touchy subject for the young one, but the inventor wasn't one to shut down curiosity. It seemed innocent enough, at least. He'd answer it in kind.

     In response, his twin namesakes are lifted up behind him for the world to see. They give a flick, they give a wave. "Explain it? Um... I'm not quite sure I can explain it. Just a luck of the draw, I think." Luck was a rather kind way to put it, but that was beside the point. "The odds should be one in a billion, genetically speaking. But it's, uh... well. It's a mutation, plain and simple.

     It has to be hereditary, I was born with two instead of one. Either that or it's from environmental influence while I was being born. Kinda can't give you any intel on that part, though. Don't really remember where my parents lived before I was around." Hm. It wasn't a lie, but it wasn't the full truth either. He didn't remember anything about his parents, but 'remember' insinuates that you forgot. That there was once a time when you did know.

     He never knew to begin with.

     "—But hey, it's not all bad! I've got a pretty neat trick I can do with'em!" It was time to forcibly ignore all of that, now. A trying smile is ushered forth onto the fox's face as twin tails whip and straighten. They move, they shift and contort the air about the space. Faster, yet faster still are their rotations. It's the turn of ignition, the spinning of propellers about to give a biplane liftoff. Then, they rise once more, building up speed overhead with the thrill of helicopter blades wavering grass and dust alike!

     It's a whirring cyclone of yellow and white streaks, they twirl to speeds unfathomable! ...At least, far beyond what any one organic creature should be able to produce with the waggling of their tail. But here, it's double the rotations, double the speed, and double the power! It's at that point that the kit lowers with a crouch. Legs give a push... and the body gives a jump!

     Up into the air, what goes up must come down... Right?

     Wrong. It's sustained flight, it's a high-flying fox.      A sky fox, if you will~. Reinventing the realm of what is and isn't impossible.

     "Ta-da~." Jazz hands.

#(IC.) ''Just call me Tails!'' #(ANSWERS.) ''And that's my scope of the scene!'' #happylabs #((ROLL CREDITS BABYYYY)) #((WE DID IT LADIES AND GENTLEMEN; THE SKY FOX NAME DROP)) #((also some bad history about him having two tails and his parents and not knowing them BUT IGNORE ALL OF THAT)) #((he can FLY isnt that COOL))

Indian Smooth Otter

Lutrogale perspicillata

The Indian Smooth Otter occurs throughout most of India. It differs from the common otter in its slightly smaller size, some skull characters, and its sleek coat which lacks the grizzling. Its habits are similar to those of the common otter and it feeds chiefly on fish, frogs, and crustaceans.

i love bryan cranston bc he was in not one but two shows that were influential and important in television history, like he is the epitome of He Has The Range Darling

#ftr malcolm in the middle was the first comedy single camera show (technically it shares that credit with curb your enthusiasm #but since they both aired the same year and production was taking place at the same time i count them as both having credit) #and breaking bad ushered in television's golden era (technically the narrative style was started by the sopranos/the wire #however breaking bad was what began the ERA of tv w that kind of storytelling. the other two laid the groundwork and breaking bad #opened the gates) #anyway i just think tv history is neat and cannot imagine how it feels to know your legacy is such a huge part of it #and also hes just such a cool talented guy i love him aldhala #op #bryan cranston

NOTE: The RBY paletee is still basically defunct as the influence of digital art and home printing make CMYK almost universal anyway. Which is nice, because as a kid CMYK was used in exactly 2 places: prepping books/magazines for print, and stage lighting.

It's a vastly better system than RBY in almost all cases, excpet when you want to do a canvas painting with Older Pigment Paints, not even the contemporary stuff. It's popular now mostly for its undeniable historical and restoration value. Can't restore an RBY painting using CMYK colour theory, you'll ruin it.

Also, I'm posting this partially for educational and partially leftist reasons, but also, partially, to tell this story again.

My sibling and I are at a family friend's. The friend and I are talking color: LEDs, the difficulty in making orange look right on many screens, magenta as not corresponding to a wavelength, and so forth.

I don't remember how it came up exactly, but I bring up the thing about RGB being opposites of CMY. (In computer terms.)

My sibling gets very, very quiet for several minutes. Then, our of nowhere, after the friend and I had moved on to talking about... cats? Knitting? Childrearing practices? My sibling shoves their phone in my face and screams "SEE, YOU'RE WRONG, RED AND GREEN ARE OPPOSITES!"

(They had a six section color wheel up on their screen.)

It was such a bizarre and needlessly hostile interaction that to this day I'm like ??? What are you trying to prove here exactly?

#Also remembering how when my siblings and later I were picking classes #To meet the art requirement #My parents declared: #AP art history is good because college credit #Digital art is acceptable because it actually teaches you something useful #Everything else is a waste #Just thinking about that #How my mother insisted 'we as a family are bad at art' #How she constantly insulted and mocked any art I did #My first memory of art is making paper snowflakes with my mother #I was SO mad at how bad mine turned out that I destroyed hers later #I don't think that's normal #Was she already tearing down my art? When I was three? #Abuse #Replies #Art

felt a little spicy when asked to make a work of art regarding my thoughts on repatriation

(work featured is a 15th-century Nahuatl double-headed serpent figurine made of cedarwood and turquoise currently in the custody of the “Africa, Oceania, and the Americas” department of The British Museum)

#when u get to roast the British museum for credit in class #i made this in like 10 minutes for an assignment that was fully due a week ago but in my defense #the prof forgot to put a due date on it so it didn’t show up in canvas #maybe I should design exhibition posters bc tbh this doesn’t look half bad imho #my art #but like #not really my art I wouldn’t have made this of my own accord #repatriation is good #Art history #I could and have written entire essays on this

[corruptedsilence]

help im being dragged back into my history nerdum

#Out for a Bite // OOC #Screams from the Abyss // MT #;; heckin fhekwjfjkew #;; my love of history returning with a vengeance #;; honestly is it bad i wish i could attend college classes for no credit? #;; just i want to sit in classes and learn #;; i just love history cr i e

[crowfeathers]

anyways on a more positive note than earlier some rando helped me find my class (we’re a week in already so that was just nice of him), a girl laughed at my self-aware absent-mindedness (2 hours of sleep babee), people sat directly next to me which is strange to remark but it’s not common in my experience with new classes. and I think I became my art history prof’s teacher’s pet.

it’s wack I feel like I’m tricking people into thinking I’m normal (I just wore makeup and nicer clothes) and not about to look like shit next class. I sometimes wear button ups for men, do they know that???

#treating my blog like a college diary idk why #also yeah my art history prof was very nice i just feel bad bc most ppl probably took the class for required credits #i am too but i have a genuine interest.. would major in art history if i wasn't already majoring/minoring in all entertainment fields lol #but back on topic my prof's 1st language is not eng so i felt bad for her trying to get class to engage and participate more #one of those few instances where despite my anxiety i force myself into position of teachers pet. just kinda by law #it’s nice tho and i like her anyhow
