#from human to something else entirely

[superellysan]

Not me thinking the hole in the dragon’s stomach looked like pussy yesterday only to realize today that oh yeah that might have been the point

Falin is literally being reborn

10/10 framing I love this series so much and TRIGGER is killing it on the visuals

#dungeon meshi #delicious in dungeon #falin #episode 12 #holy shit it hit me like a freight train just now #incredible #spoilers but uh #reborn #reshaped #from the womb of the dungeon itself she changes #from human to something else entirely #anime only it will make a whole lot more sense after next week’s episode promise

[muninnhuginn]

thinking about how lain and connections. how everyone in the show is seeking connections with others and how many of the humans believe the way for everyone to become truly connected is through the wired.

but lain herself comes from the other side of this. she had the wired, she basically *was* the wired. and yet she chose to try and become human, to give herself a pretend little family and to go to school and to forget she was ever anything else.

but when people were trying to merge reality and the wired, when people were trying to make themselves gods, lain stopped it because she wanted to do right by alice. lain may have struggled to make human connections, but she did make the one. and that was enough to change the entire tide. that alone was enough to let her sacrifice everything she'd gained and return to an existence that terrified her where she would never be acknowledged again.

#this is all over the place but finished a mostly complete rewatch of lain the other day #and something about the entire god->human and human->god that's going on there where lain becomes human enough to stop the merger #serial experiments lain #also gah. alice and lain. their entire relationship is a Lot. at its base it's just that alice is fundamentally kind. #we know she would have been just as nice to chisa. but lain appreciates it because no one else reached out and it all goes from there

one of the things that particularly pisses me off about art discussions, either in how nowadays everything has to aim for more and more realism in art styles and even live action to be seen as "real art", and in dismissing more abstract styles of artwork as not "real art" and having no inherent worth, is that they explicitly do not consider realism an art style either. to them, realism is just a given of "good" art, not chosen but rather just default. which i hate, because you CAN pick realism as an intentional style and a purposeful choice to suit a narrative, and all this results in is no one noticing or understanding why you made that choice or why that choice works better than any other possible choice to tell the story you want to tell.

#all the care guide says is 'biomass' #like i like realism because i have a heavy focus on anatomy as a theme #on the body as something innately complex and with a lot of feelings to have about it in all its messy ugly states #im interested in all the complex ways the body intersects with its environment and with culture and with other people #as the outside as contrasting the inside or serving as a strange reflection of it #like im kind of going for a lot of merfolk designs to not be particularly visually different from each other #they have incredibly similar silhouettes and thats on purpose #i want all of their differences and visual traits to be things that they would find more prominent #but we would struggle to pick apart without learning about them deeper and committing these to knowledge #because thats so much been my experience with trying to tell different individuals of the same species of wild animal apart #and i want to use that as a lens to then discuss how humans would then interact with an entirely different sapient species #and what happens when you are someone who experiences that #of someone else not recognizing you as individuals like you do each other #of them not even trying to adapt or learn your differences #what damage it does when this happens to you #and how much the world opens up when someone actually does learn these little differences #but of course #no one else recognizes this because everyone just thinks realism is the default #realism cannot be a purposeful choice done for a reason #realism is just What You Are Supposed To Do and Unevocative Of Deeper Meaning

#B'Elanna Torres #B'Elanna art #B'Elanna #-thinks so hard about B'Elanna's self image issues and about how Tom Paris could be baked into an apple pie he oozes so much All American #Charm and about how B'Elanna was literally ready to break up with Tom because she felt he wasn't committed to her emotionally #and didn't prioritize her needs/wants and when she tried to bring it up he didn't address any of that and instead just asked her to marry #him and she said yes bc it's what she wanted wasn't it? But also thinks about how getting married solves literally 0 of their problems bc #that wasn't the issue - and how they never REALLY talked about the issue she had and the proposal seemed more like a desperate attempt to #hold onto her and B'Elanna's acceptance was her tightening her grip as well and thinks about how the solution to Tom not prioritizing #B'Elanna was framed as B'Elanna trying to do what Tom wanted and about how B'Elanna blames her mother entirely for her father abandoning #them - how she blames SPECIFICALLY the fact that her mother was too Klingon and about how Tom blames the fact that he never showed how much #he cares about/is committed to B'Elanna on the fact that she has 'that tough Klingon exterior' and how her response is #'do I look that tough right now?' and about how B'Elanna associates Klingon features so strongly with negativity - unloveability - rejection #that she tries to erase her features from her daughter's face and make her Human which to her means Good and Beautiful and Loveable and #about how she STILL after all this time only wants her father to love her again. Thinks about fear of abandonment which makes you hold onto #something which doesn't work bc you can't bear to be alone or fail. If she said no to Tom's proposal who else would she have?

hey what do you mean pocketcat had daans soul

#walked up the museum and pocketcat comes out w a wheelchair. says olivia got lonely and wanted to join the party. went in and fought the-- #--mechanical dance. map still said there was a contestant in there so i tracked down pocketcat. hey man why do you have daans checkered-- #--pants. kill him and get the blank soul. loot him and get daans loot. okay ?????? #like pocketcat is an entirely separate entity right. rhers light affects only the people themselves stripping their humanity away and-- #--supposedly revealing their true nature but i bought fuckin skin bibles from pocketcat AS daan. is this some sort of possession situation- #--did pocketcat somehow take daans body. WHY did he do that if so #daans blank soul and the whole idea there of him following the lead of authority does lend credence to that idea. a total imposition of-- #--pocketcats essence on daans body (while hes got daans pants + loot he says the same exact lines as he did b4 night3) or something #then theres the whole angle where pocketcat is a creep and there is NO way daan does not have issues around sex after getting raised in-- #--the cult of sylvain. head in my hands #also pocketcats fight when alone is a BITCH. dont have the salmonsnake rune so i only get a few free turns w the armguards-- #--b4 he insists i choose smth else / goes after black kalev instead. i am keeping this stupid goat alive the entire game this time around #small aside. rlly interesting implication that olivia held out against the moonscorching long enough that it took direct interference-- #--from pocketcat to turn. does that always happen or is it bc i didnt find a wheelchair for her + thus she spent most of her time in the-- #--protected train cabin ?

one thing about me is that i'll never be over episode 23.

especially because the first time i watched it, I was confused about who was saying what in the interaction between Rei and the angel. But I think it doesn't really matter, because all of it is reflective of Rei's inner feelings, as she's essentially having her own mini instrumentality here, a dialogue with herself.

angel: i'll share what's in my heart with you. see? doesn't your heart hurt?

rei: hurt? no, this is...loneliness?

angel: loneliness? i don't understand.

rei: you don't want to be alone. we are many, but you are not. you hate it, don't you? that is loneliness.

angel: that is what's inside your heart. that is your own heart, overflowing with sorrow.

#ooc; onion girl enthusiast #((god idk every time i think about it or rewatch it it just...gets me)) #((''we are many but you are not'' could be about both humans and angels; two beings that seem very different but the similarities are #alluded to throughout the show. and rei is both angel and human but she is also something else entirely)) #((She doesnt identify as an angel but she never calls herself human either)) #((she can sympathise with both yet she also struggles to understand both and feels alienated from both)) #((so she doesnt really understand herself until this moment)) #((which makes me wish she and k.aworu had more interactions bc he's the only one who's like her in that sense)) #((but at the same time its interesting bc even tho the way rei - and k.aworu- came to be is very unique)) #((and the things she feels are very individual to her at the same time she's (not!!) alone in it all)) #((because almost every character feels this deep loneliness too and every character also feels as though nobody understand it)) #((augh my head)) #((idk where i was going with this im just thinkin thoughts. but still i shall tag)) #study.

New suicide squad is fucking horrible yet again (surprise, surprise). No shade specifically on Maines because she could be doing it worse (see anything TT has done w Waller & the squad) but her Waller and everything dc has done with the character the past few years makes me want to bash my head in. Also love how they changed Waller's origin to be exactly opposite to what it was before in a really major way

Absolutely no respect at all. Lovely

#DOES NO ONE UNDERSTAND HOW THIS CHARACTER WORKS #first off. her compromising her morals is something that happens GRADUALLY. not from the fucking jump. jesus christ. #suicide squad is so fucked. just as like a concept with it set up this way. eay to make something cool and complex so interesting and stupi #like maines has done more than anyone else recently to make amanda seem even slightly like a human fucking being instead of the devil #incarnate but like. its still so terrible and awful and just not it and not her and!!!!! i fucking despise all of this #anyways i think she has potential as a writer and could maybe do something interesting if she was given allowance to do so and read up more #on certain things but like i do hate this book. makes me so pissed off #character assasination and mishandling so bad i cant even ignore the words and look at the art jfc #anyways im so fed up with this entire event and story arc and i despise it with everything in me. talk about boring stupid and trite. and #EASY its so fucking easy. why is every story beat w anything wallers in literally the same plot #which is ofc “waller is a massive fucking bitch who everyone hates and the heroes get mad at her” like PLEASE #DO WE NOT HAVE THE ABILITY TO TELL A STORY THAT IS AT ALL ENGAGING #rant over but i fucking hate absolute power and everything abt it #blah #tuesday spoilers

ive been having a lot of fun incorporating embroidery onto paper drawings in school recently (inspired by a printmaking teacher i had once who sometimes stitched her prints, it looked really cool!) but one thing that has kind of been bugging me is how my instructors have been talking about the gendered aspect of it. i know using any form of textile practice in contemporary art is gonna get some kind of thoughts about the historical concept of "women's work" and i dont mind that thats chill thats like normal. its not what, i, the artist, is focusing on personally, but death of the author and all that, as an interpretation its an interesting thing to think about and equally as valid as my intention. also a good topic for essays and such

BUT today my instructor tried to convince me that i can embroider directly on printer paper instead of the thicker papers ive been using and i was like ABSOLUTELY NOT maybe YOU can but I have BIG CLUMSY SWEATY HOT MITTEN HANDS and i Destroy printer paper by looking at it funny. the second a photocopy reaches my skin its already wrinkled. gloves dont help my sweat is too powerful. im CLAMMY leave me ALONE hfkjrwefhjegrfe

and there is an unconcious bias ive been noticing of a lot of very progressively minded artists assuming that i can do this shit delicately. listen. embroidery can be a very delicate and masterful skill that people hone over decades. but not everyone who does it is that skilled master. some of us just like to clumsily sew string through stuff so they can feel the texture. and some of us are really sweaty.

#actually the way my class and department faculty in general talk about gender and feminism in art is a little offputting in general recently #the focus on softness and delicateness and stereotypical markers of femininity is chill thats like an interesting thing to think about #lots of things to explore and critique and then embrace as not innate 'womanly' things but as like. human. as women are human #that type of thing. but theres been a lot of simultaneous emphasis among my peers of like this universal womanhood? #woman as the archetype. and woman as something wholly different from anything else. and the universal 'sisterhood' #i dunno im like fat mixed race kinda gnc and more visibly disabled than i think i am so i was like #never gonna be fully brought into that supposed 'universal sisterhood' anyway #and whether i personally think of myself as a woman or not in general is nobodys business least of all my own #BUT it is bizarre - this universal womanhood narrative. i think exploring one's own femininity is extremely interesting. #is it soft? is it hard? something else? all kinds of ways to think about it #i think the pitfall im falling in with my peers is the habit of assuming you need to make art as a universal message: theres no such thing #any 'universal message' you make will always exclude people you dont mean to exclude #if you depict your universal womanhood as young and soft and skinny and feminine and nuturing - then i might wonder #about the women who are outside of that. what about that fat masc 60 year old woman who cant nuture for shit #(gets so hard i get naseous. i think i hauve covid) i dunno its on my mind a lot #maybe thats just the way things go even in art spaces that are trying to be progressive? always a type of woman who is in vogue #a type of woman who is considered the default? and whoevers outside of that is left out of the conversation entirely #(<- bmpmp3 discovering the basics of misogyny live in the tags of this tumblr post LOL but yknow what i mean)

cyberpsychosis could maybe be so cool if it was people being possessed by some sort of rouge ai,or as part of a corporate conspiracy. like as a planned obsolescence thing where certain parts during production are programmed to make people Do That after a certain point so you have to buy the next new 20,000eddies cannon arms to replace the nearly identical previous model or else you might kill everyone you love and die because your cyberwares "outdated". or untraceable viruses infecting competing corporations cyberware using their rival's customer's livelihoods to sabotage their profits. and maybe any one of those things works in such a way that its designed to detect atypical brain chemistry in a host,and thus triggers more frequently with them to tage advantage of and use those people as a scapegoat and a way to further fear monger against them,and you can uncover that this is the case. or something along those lines. and the more cyberware someone has the more likely it is that they could encounter any of these scenarios. but no it is just #crazy people being too #crazy.

#they kinda toyed w something like that in earlier drafts. with dollchips and the project ghost thing thats too much to explain in tumbletags #but yeah #honestly w how little its present in the final game beyond Go Herd Them Up And Beat The Shit Out Of Them So They Can Recover In Therapy #Offscreen In An Optional Sidequest With Literally No Conclusion they couldve easily just retconned its existence in the world entirely #especially since really the only reason why it exists in the lore in the first place is so the humanity system in the ttrpg keeps your #character from becoming too overpowered from too much cyberware. like thats it. #but for how much they dont wanna flesh out any other conspiratorial type stuff for the sake of ''It is a Mystery👻'' #and how much they went with ''idk where cyberpsychosis comes from we dont know if its even real'' ingame #edgerunners and mike pondsmith himself sure have a lot to say about it and exactly how it works #we cant even leave that up for interpretation for players to find some way into coping themselves into believing its not as weirdly ableist #as it is #and we cant do anything else with it that would actually be cool. or make sense. in universe and just logically. #however. im a dumbfuck and am not beyond thinking about how like. in a hypothetical scenario where melissa welles is still around #And jackies bled out corpse is still used for the arasaka supersoldier program and is going around killing people.i cant not think about ho #mama welles would have to handle both of her kids dying and also going on rampages out of (mostly) anyones control. like think about that. #heart wrenching and whatnot. could you fucking imagine with everything else shes been through. #anyway sorry for talking about things that very literally probably less than a dozen ppl know/care about its just. interesting. #i froth over the potential that it had #that im tricking myself into believing that it had

i feel like we don't know enough about the enlightened language

Like is it literally the only language that elves speak ?? Are there different dialects ??? Are there any other languages??? Do elves learn any human languages??

how do the polygots switch between languages so well and can they teach me ??? (I know like 4-5 languages and i fuck up all of them)

You're so right, language is such a fascinating part of culture and characterization and development. On a broader scale of what language is dominant (if any) in a culture, the words and phrases they use and how they interact. On a smaller scale of what language(s) a character speaks, what ones they want to speak, if they find language interesting or if they're more visual. It's such an interesting thing and keeper barely brushes the surface!

Since the language is instinctual, all elves speak it at birth, it doesn't seem like there are any other elven languages. It's just Enlightened. That's it. They can learn other languages, and that includes human languages, but I don't think many elves have reason to learn human languages. And pretty much only those who work in the nobility would need to learn other languages (like ogreish, trollish, etc.) because otherwise basically their only exposure to other species is when they come to the Lost Cities. And the other species will speak the Enlightened language. And if it isn't necessary, why would they ever learn those other languages when they have their superior language? Obviously not all elves think like that, but many do.

The only/main changes to the language would be personal changes, if one specific person starts referring to something uniquely or speaking in a different way. But the language won't develop over time the way ours do, because any personal changes an elf makes when speaking won't be passed on to their children who know it instinctually. They could learn it and pick up on it, but the language as they know it from birth wouldn't include those alterations. They're starting at square one every time; the language seems very likely to be stagnant and universal.

I'm also super jealous of the polyglots though I'd love to be better with languages and they're just out here. Doing it super easily. No effort at all. I'm fluent in one language and kinda proficient in 2 others but like. please, being a polyglot would make it so much easier </3

#kotlc #kotlc worldbuilding #quil's queries #booksscienceandmath #i wonder /why/ their language is instinctual #like outside of canon I know why #I know its because shannon didn't want to make this species entirely disconnected from the human world speak english #it has unwanted implications #but she needed sophie to be able to communicate and live there #and not be super concerned learning a foreign language when she was dealing with so much else #but if we look at it /in/ canon...why? #why are they born with perfect speech and language knowledge? #what benefit is instinctual language? #how does that work? #anyway #would love to be a polyglot like in the series #guess I have to do it the old fashioned way and study or something :/ #long post

i just watched ep 5 of extraordinary attorney woo and first of all that hurt so much! secondly i really appreciated that they showed junho worrying for youngwoo and her opening up to him but didn’t show him trying to make her feel better or giving advice or anything really beyond extending and then retracting his hand. and this is for 3 reasons:

it shows that the relationship between them is still developing, they still don’t understand each other perfectly, they’re not always able to do or say the right thing that would help the other or make them feel better

we see that junho is really caring and always offers support but even he sometimes is at loss for words and actions. sure, he could’ve said something else after the scene ended and we just weren’t shown, but that’s obviously an important choice from the director, which brings me to imo the most important reason

and that’s the fact that by not showing us junho comforting youngwoo and helping her make sense of everything, they’re making it clear this is about youngwoo, this is her lowest moment and she has to face the consequences - the regret, the shame - on her own first, she has to grapple with the weight of her mistake with herself. and she is the one who decides how to move forward from there, how to be better from now on. i think it was really important to have let that be her moment. because we’ve been shown so far that youngwoo has a support network, has people who love her and are there for her, but she’s her own person who needs to sort through her emotions and thoughts on her own

#i liked this episode even if it made me want to scream the entire time #i think that was the point #nico.txt #extraordinary attorney woo #it's not my place to say if the representation is accurate but i appreciate that they didn't make the autistic character a #perfectly innocent and naive person #like she makes mistakes that come from her wanting to win and do better than someone else #she knows she's doing something morally reprehensible and yet she still does it and only afterwards admits it #that's not to say she's an awful person or anything obviously - she's a good person #but she can still be swayed from her morals by the promise of success #she can still be /human/ #and idk personally i appreciated that. they didn't make her the perfect genius and being a really smart person isn't her whole personality #(and also isn't always a good thing)

i do get making cas essentially human i understand that he can adjust to it and actually enjoy life like that. but um. i just think he can be just as fulfilled as a full blown angel

#human cas fics fuck severely they go hard #but i cant really vibe with cas like. just ''being human'' endgame #cos we already know no matter if he can fly no matter if he has grace he won't BE human that's an entirely different species ya dig #if the show was normal about non-human creatures being people as much as humans are #i probably wouldn't mind as much? but the show is very very sucky about that so #they scratch the surface on nonhumans being capable of like. fear and hopelessness and love. #and instead of really having salmondean explore this they just. forget about it and maybe the cycle restarts in another motw ep #ik it probably aligns with the overall copification of those 2 and it makes me so full of malice... #what im saying is cas is decidedly other. a creature an incredibly powerful one. #and i think it really shows that him not being human separates him from them. he's not as trusted #even after 12 years :/ it's kinda easy to oust him cos he keeps relationships with heaven. #which brings me to the whole ''oh fuck angels we hate angels oh but um not you cas!!'' thing like bro he's still an angel #you pick which monsters u find worthy of redemption but never fully accept them for what they are and discard em pretty easily #so yeah i think having cas be graceless is interesting and even makes sense but ig it just seems too easy on the winchesters #they never had to really accept cas as a full powered angel cos honestly they way they remember it #cas at full power wings in tact was just an asshole and he was barely ever back to that: comfortable in his prime after like s7 wtv #once it's all over and done with i think it'd be cool if cas could have all his wings and power in tact and just be at peace like that #he's an angel but he doesn't have to be a soldier anymore he can quite literally do anything now whole point of free will #and yeah he can choose to be graceless sure but he can never be human anyway. physically at his core he's something Else and i think #dean should have to like. live with that tbh #they never have to REALLY tackle the ''monsters are people too'' aspect and angel cas endgame would prove that regardless #he IS family. they dont NEED him to be an angel to USE him but regardless he is what he is and #they are fine with him not being human because he's family and they love him who cares what you are. #cos in cas' mind he needs his power to be useful but also he cannot truly be part of them while he is noticeably Other due to their bias #this is true for other characters obviously jack rowena crowley #sam's whole thing with benny 💀 #but this is a cas post and i haven't watched the show in years so this isn't like. a cited essay lmao just ramblings #in short i just want cas to be fully angel while not feeling he HAS to be for others' sake and have the brothers be genuinely cool with it #cas my best friend cas #cas studies

ONE #And her entire RACE struggled to subjugate humans to the point the war was so bad that they ignored EVERYTHING ELSE #But Juno alone can somehow do it??? #Then they started releasing games from the Templar's point of view after spending numerous games explaining why they are evil and bad #I get 'everything is true and nothing is permitted' but their goal is ultimately enslavement and you can't rationalize that for me to care #So idc about the templar players #I get that there's nuance to it but like they spent games 1- like 5 saying 'look how bad these guys are #they're so evil and they want to enslave mankind because of our vicious nature or something #The Isu are flawed in a way that makes me actively dislike even the helpful ones #Minerva is arrogant and just generally nasty #but she cares about the humans for some reason insofar that shes willing to let the world BURN and kill EVERYONE #just to keep Juno from getting free from her weird prison thing #seems more like vendetta to me

#wheucto #wheucto speaks #it also says inanimate planet in earlier episodes but i remarked this particular one bc it's closer and also i thought they retconned it or #something or didnt show his back idk #inanimate planet is? something that's kind of hinted towards in ii as the planet they live on? #which is? something? #like. first of all the name #WHY is it named inanimate planet? #that's a strange name #but i guess it could come from the inhabitants being objects as opposed to something else #like humans #though with mars existing probably at the same place it is in our solar system it might be that inanimate planet is /an/ earth that exists #parallel to our own or something #though the fact that it then specifies assembled in new york is? strange? #like ok it's made on another planet kinda strange but??? the fact that they list an entire planet then just some city #it could say something like 'designed by meeple on meeple cloud_ inanimate planet_ assembled in new york_ usa_ human planet' #i said human planet bc idk what else it would be #if they're both earths then it'd be weird for one to be earth even if it was our earth #and besides there was that one frenchman who pretended to be from italy_ which implies the existence of our countries on inanimate planet #which would mean that saying inanimate planet and then new york makes even less sense bc there's TWO new yorks #unless that frenchman was from the other planet #also the fact that mephone was assembled on an entirely different planet? to be shipped back or something? is like really weird #unless they have some wormhole connecting the two worlds that anyone can go through at any time #still kinda weird though why would you assemble your robot guy on another planet #anyways i don't think inanimate planet is 'canon' at least not anymore #i just wanted to ramble bc the idea is real weird to me
