#but I wanna learn how to do ANYONE'S!!!

[dkettchen]

me waking up in a cold sweat at 6:20am: "I should get evening classes to be a hair dresser & training to be a makeup artist to be my own hair/make-up person on photo/video shoots and defy industry's single-gender-dominated-and-not-improving department segregation system like the all-rounder online creator that I am 👀😤"

#I swear I don't have adhd or anything I am just having a professional existential crisis recently x'D #ok but hear me out right like how useful would it be if people could hire someone who's a one-person videographer AND hair/make-up person! #I could like double my asking rate! #you need to do one before you can do the other anyway so why have two people for it #other than that the hair/make-up women don't specialise in photography #and the videographer lads have never touched a cosmetic product let alone knowing how to use it to any level let alone a professional one #AND I'd be able to offer hiring me as either role OR both at once #I'd have more options for jobs to apply to #and I'd have full control over the look I want from my subjects #cause like I do my own hair & make-up for my videos #like I know how to cut my own hair & do my own make-up #but I wanna learn how to do ANYONE'S!!! #and I know you can do hair dressing college evening classes cause I remember that was one of the other evening classes running while I was #doing my electrician's level 2 #and I know there's make-up training places in the city I've seen them before while I was looking up other things #if you do professional hair/make-up you need to take pictures of it for your portfolio anyway #and if you professionally take pictures of people you need to do their hair/make-up anyway to get the look you want #SO WHY NOT BOTH for any reason other than gender roles prohibiting the cishets from learning both skills to the required level!!! #THIS IS MY LEG UP #THIS IS MY QUEER NONBINARY TRANS ADVANTAGE #*evil manic laughter* #edit: and smth smth the thing where women & afab ppl don't do their skills to a professional level #unlike cishet men making everything their job and therefore succeeding professionally even in trad-female dominated skills/industries #hence I should LEARN my matr skills to the level required for professional stuff rather than limit myself to patr skills #that I have a disadvantage with due to cishet male-dominated nature of this industry/tech department #AND it'll give me an opportunity to message my detrans previous hairdresser (as I live too far away from her now) #being like 'u were one of my inspirations for this I also wanna learn how to cut mullets real good hope ur doing well T^T' x'D #AND I could apply to screenskills' trainee finder in another department in a few years regardless of whether or not I get in this year #(I applied to the camera one this year)

I love you messy artstyle i love you visible brush strokes I love you textures and rough edges I love you imperfections I love you roughness and colour blobs I love you scratchy sketches and bold stylisation and dirt and imperfections I love you ugly and raw emotion!!!!! ❤️

#i talk sometimes #art talk #i made a tweet like this on twatter ages ago but i've been feeling this a lot lately #also this is the start of me writing more on this blog and not only using it as art because who cares!! i don't!! #I wanna translate raw emotion into colors and shapes. I wanna know where to ignore all details and where to go ham you feel me? #i used to dream about developing a style like for MtG where it looked like a masterful oil painting that oozes realism and details #and i've realised the last two years or so that I would actually hate that for me. I know I wouldn't enjoy doing it. For myself. #it's that pipeline from wanting to be the perfect realistic wotc artist to accepting that I will never be that #instead i wanna learn how to stylise better and get a good brush economy going yknow. I wanna be bolder. #i doubt i'll ever be as incredible as all these MtG artists no matter what anyone says. but it's ok!! i don't have to be!!! #i just luv art man!!

I've always wanted my current webcomic to have halftones (à la manga!), and never really took the time to "learn" how to do it.

And whaddya know... it's super easy and changes everything and I LOVE HOW IT LOOKS 💙💙💙

#ltt #webcomic #halftones #screentones #anyone wanna know how I do it it's so easy #though there are variants of how to use halftones and i'm gonna learn how to use them in different ways

I freaking love this scene so much, you dont even know. Its so heartmeltingly cute: they’re discovering his powers together! They’re in on the secret together!!! Mason being presumably the first person to actually, seriously just reach out to Corey, just some feeling of warmth. Its what Corey probably needed so much after losing Lucas in such a way, not to mention his parents. No wonder he fell so hard

Its also so much fun to compare this scene to the Liam-Mason Gym Scene in Season 4 Episode 5, just the contrasts.. *chef’s kiss*

#morey make me scream into my pillow #THEY ARE RIGHT THERE!! RIGHT INFRONT OF US!! #ok i wanna wordvomit about 4x05s gym scene #liam refusing help-trying to push mason away out of fear vs corey’s invisibility-emotional and physical #mason not being able to reach out to liam bc he didnt know vs mason reaching out to corey bc they’re both in this now. i wonder how long #it was before somebody acknowledged corey? did anyone else ask him if he was ok? it was mason doing that twice: after lucas/corey’s death #sfhkhfsgssgjl. and mason got to experience something fun and playful about the supernatural world. learning together instead of alone. #no wonder they fell so hard #oh and then corey started vomiting mercury. there was mercury on mason’s hands. did he try pulling corey up to help? did he call the medics? #ugh #it was on his shirt. they mustve been actually close to each other. they mustve been so desperate and terrified. corey knew they’d kill him #was he terrified? did he cling onto mason when the medics came? #liam hallucinated a beserker/cirey getting killed by a d.d. #morey #teen wolf #mason hewitt #corey bryant #liam dunbar #mason x corey (+hoizer)

Rant about Harry Potter and JK Rowling, stick with me here

Ok, so, I hate JK Rowling. I feel like that's a given, right? Like, she's a transphobic homophobic bigot who hides behind feminism and routinely denies massive parts of the holocaust, and I despise her in ways that I don't think words can even express. I can't stand her, but y'know what I also can't stand?

When someone implies that my mother, who is one of the most supportive people I know, and a massive part of the founding, organization, and actions of a local group made specifically to fight Moms for Liberty and school boards in our area trying to harm trans and queer people, is transphobic because she likes Harry Potter

Wanna know why my mom likes Harry Potter? Because when she discovered the series at 12 years old, she quite literally lived in a cupboard under the stairs and was in an abusive household. The magic of the wizarding world or whatever was her escape, it's the reason she's still alive, and by extension, the reason I was ever alive.

But, sometimes, not even often, when I try to express even the most minimal amount of appreciation of that, someone says to me "but isn't JK Rowling transphobic? Why would you support someone like that? Are you transphobic?"

Which pisses me off beyond belief, as one might imagine

In this situation, "separate the art from the artist" isn't exactly a good phrase to use, given the fact that the goblins or whatever run the bank are Jewish stereotypes and the house elves generally being happy to work under their masters being a straight rip from the whole happy slave myth, and those are very very important things to recognize and understand, among others

I feel like it's a lot closer to "separate the hundreds if not thousands of lives she's helped from the hundreds if not thousands of lives she's ruined", or even better, understand that the good she's indirectly done for people makes all the bad that much more horrid

My mother is the closest thing to a hero in this entire world and I will not stand to hear one more person accuse her of being transphobic purely because she thinks fondly of a book series that saved her life. I will not stand for people saying she's just as bad as a holocaust denier because she owns every book in the series. I will not stand for anyone going entirely against their point of not judging a group as if it's monolithic by saying all Harry Potter fans are bad people, including my mother. And, once again, it's not often at all that this happens, but it happens and I'm pissed about it and needed to rant

Anyways rant over JK Rowling sucks don't believe a single thing she says and don't support her unless you wanna support someone actively trying to make the existence of queer people illegal

#jk rowling #harry potter #screw jkr #screw jk rowling #rants #yeah so I saw one too many “if you like Harry Potter please kill yourself posts” (literal direct f+cking quote from one) and wrote this #like #in what world would saying stuff like that ever be ok #what kind of bubble do you live in where you think that's an actual productive thing to say #like have you never interacted with anyone who has slightly problematic opinions or behaviors in a positive manner.... ever?????? #do you just live in an echo chamber of people who agree with every thought you have to a T???? #difference in opinion and civil disagreements are the things that human understanding and kindness are built on #and saying things like “if you like Harty Potter you should kys” just says that you don't know how to handle that #that's not a good thing #and I know that more than a couple mutuals/followers of mine reblog similar things a lot and I don't wanna give the wrong message #JK Rowling is a horrid horrid person and nothing else could ever be argued #but my for you page is filled to the brim with posts like the ones I've referenced and I'm so mad I feel like crying #angry #angry rant #serious #AGH I just I am so so mad rn #I hate being this mad like outwardly and stuff but like #c'mon guys basic human f+cking understanding and decency can we try and learn that before telling people to kill themselves please

Today’s Raya sketch, I’ll finish her up soon, something about her hair is throwing me off. Raya would be a IV that walks around with only half her armor on [it drives Palmer insane when she does] and waits to put the other parts on until she’s done braiding her hair and styling it into a bun. She chooses the extra 10 minutes of sleep instead of doing her hair before hand.

I saw a reference for this on TikTok somewhere and it was so Raya coded that I had to attempt drawing it.

I have one more ODST!John/Raya piece I’m working on and then I’m tempted to do another drawing of John braiding her hair but it’s Spartan John doing it.

#raya muse #I still don’t understand how arms work but we’re learning #spartan muse #Raya #halo oc #my oc #spartan iv oc #spartan iv #my art #I’m eepy and ready to sleep #maybe it’s her face that’s throwing me off #anyways I’m planning to do a sheet of sketches #for the reference photos I saw and wanna try drawing #I’m thinking Raya #Lana and Cortana #and idk who else #so if anyone wants to see someone lmk

(flea anon i shall be jumping in sometimes bc im rotating ur art in my brain)

my narcolepsy leads me to having hallucinations and its always horrifying shit so do you think ace also gets those maybe imagining sabo and coupled with the inteusive thoughts he just is having Terrible time (hes just like me fr,,,,,)

Im glad you're rotating my art, it's loves to be rotated 🙏 Ace would definitely have hallucinations, maybe groggily waking up at night in the tree house to see Sabo at the door way, but when he does a double take it's just a tree branch that accidentally got caught in the open entrance.... And yeah, alongside intrusive thoughts he'd just be having a bad time even if Luffy is there because the thoughts are harmless, wanting to hurt him would occasionally occur. Maybe to add on the pile of reason why he reached out to Makino to help him be a better brother and learn to be kinder Also sorry about the Narcolepsy anon, fight through those hallucinations well 👊 😔

#tokumei answered #I wanna... talk about Sabo's intrusive thoughts too hm hm..... #but I dont really know how to word it out like- It was Ace and Sabo. Two children with emotionally pent up rage that their ideal #way of spending time is fighting stealing and crime. Because it was their way of feeling free to do whatever they want #Ace being raised by bandits and learning through their actions. and Sabo with his shitty ass family building pent up rage in him #Ace got to mature and learn mostly to stay away from intrusive thoughts caused by his emotional instability and Sabo... Well- he did #mature too. But y'know he grew up fighting in the revolutionaries #his intrusive thoughts may have been enabled but be directed at the government and rich asshole (or anyone he doesn't like) #so we got one brother who learned to suppress those intrusive thoughts (Ace) and one brother who got those thoughts be enabled (Sabo) #I think you should note that in the jp dub Sabo is kind of a meanie sometimes when he's not talking to Luffy

found weeping and sobbing on the floor

#i need to get into that shit #i need to draw some fucking machines #I WANNA MAKE ULTRAKILL FANART I WANNA MAKE COOL MAHINE OCS #BUT THE HORRORS #THE HORRORS OF LEARNING TO DRAW STUFF YOU DON'T FUCKING UDERSTAND HOW IT WORKS #HOW DOES MACHINE WORK #do i have to bullshit it #i'm gonna have to bullshit it aren't i #if anyone happens to have a cool handy guide on like #basic stuff about how machines work and are constructed or stuff to look out for when designing them or whatever #or just some good visual refs that are easy to understand idk #anything #just send them my way i will reward you with my undying love and a little sketch of anything you want #kinda just thowing this into the void we'll see what happens i guess

[todayisafridaynight]

thinking of the very likely possibility there are true crime channels in the rgg universe and one (1) person has probably looked into masato's ''''''death'''''. for shits and giggles of course.

#snap chats #just got my spanish exam back and i love it when profs are like 'your lowest grade'll be dropped' #bestie i KNOW this'll be my lowest grade i just wanted to test the waters for how exams will go </3 i promise not to suck next time </3 #anyway main text post time. NO BUT DO YOU THINK #cause arakawa was infamous before and people knew of his son then but esp after the kamurocho k3 shit #his name DEF exploded and people DFE got nosy..... #i dont think anyone would have figured out that aoki was masato but maybe one (1) person figured he wasnt really dead #i still wanna know how masato's public death went.. #but yeah can you imagine. going on youtube and some girl is talking about your fake death like it really happened and is speculating #and you just get to sit in your governor chair like Lol. #IMAGINE IF THE POOR LASS GETS FUCKIN. NECKED FOR THATLKEJKLJ #i dont think aoki would consider some random youtuber as an actual threat but that'd be hilarious if he did #anyway i just think we should exploit social media and the sort more with rgg characters #i think itd be really funny and the peak of comedy if we acknowledged how Actual people might react to shit #i mean... we already got vtubers interacting with the fuckinnn yakuza.. cant get more ridic than that.. lol.. #ok bye im learning spanish now

ill be skinny. it will happen. ive been trying for so long now. once it was just trying to eat less and be smaller but not much real focus on my physical appearance. now its all about that. 11 years of my ed and 7 years of wanting what i want now. i dont live with my parents anymore. i have more control. i will achieve it.

there was a time where id eat 300-700 consistently. ill get that back. i will.

#most of the years ive had an ed i had no access to a scale so it was very jard to track progress #maybe i did lie my ass off and fool ppl around me into thinking its actually healthier for me to have a scale bc ill restrict worse without #one which is half true. not that kts anyones right to make that choice at this point. at least not in 2 months when im 18 its not #part of the problem im having is i wanna be small but i have so little muscle that ill have to be very dangerously underweight to look even #close to how i want. many peoples ugws are under that line. mine was once. before i learned that its genuinely very very dangerous #and a lot of the people who look the way i wanna look are only just below that line which is where id like to be #they look that way bc they have more muscle. most ppl cant maintain a bmi of 14 or less for that long. eventually your body freaks out #ppl use instances like eugenia coonie as proof that you can actually do it but like. most peoples bodies wont hold out that long #and many of the ppl in thinspo pics eother only maintained it for a short bit before gaining or getting really sick or they weighed more #and had more muscle. and like. my goal isnt to be all bone. i dont wanna push it that far. bony people arent physically nice to hold anyway #i just wanna be light enough that somwone cpuld carry me and people might view me in a certain way #i wanna be seen as cute and fragile and shy and like. young and sweet. ots hard to explain exactly what i want peopel see see me like but i #want when people look at pictures or videos of me for them to think i look sweet and wanna be gantle and nice to me #and when i walk around places instead of seeing an awkward weirdo they see a timid cute girl whos really tiny and pretty #i know ill never be that but. maybe if i lose enough weight and dont have much acne and leave my hair down then maybe i can come close
