The greatest past campaign NPC that could possibly be introduced into Campaign 3 is, without a doubt, Eadwulf Grieve. He's a wizard. Ludinus is his (girlfriend? wife? best friend?)'s boss. He's a follower of the Raven Queen who openly wears her symbol. He definitely knows a lot about residuum and probably knows a decent amount about potions of possibility. His arms are incredible.

I don’t usually make posts like this, but I’ve been seeing a lot of anti-intellectual junk lately, and I really think we need to put the word “pretentious” up on a shelf until people learn what it actually means.
It doesn’t describe someone who likes artsy-fartsy deep meaning media. People who are pretentious are fake. They’re posers trying to be sophisticated and unique, not like other girls. They pretend to only like stuff they think will make them sound cool when they talk about it. They want to act like they know something you don’t, and they want attention for it.
By definition, if you genuinely enjoy something, you can’t be pretentious. If it resonates with you, and you analyze it, and you don’t care what people think, that’s the polar opposite, actually. If you love obscure experimental prog music, if you watch underground high concept indie films through English teacher eyes, if you spend hours in a modern art museum reading each piece as a vessel for storytelling, if your backpack’s full of poetry books that inspire you, if you play underrated games that were someone’s passion project, if you have an interest in studying the classics or the masters, you are not pretentious.
Of course, some people just don’t like some stuff, and that’s fine, but that’s not what this is about. Don’t let anti-intellectuals shame you for enjoying things just because your interests are inaccessible to them, because they refuse to be brave and put effort into critical thinking. You’re not stuck up for refusing to overlook the craft of artists.
#anti intellectualism#media#movies#books#music#critical thinking#my friend who primarily listens to one very popular band once said that people who listen to obscure music are annoying and pretentious#which rubbed me the wrong way because 1 she knows that I listen to obscure music and 2 it’s such a cowardly consumerist take. anyone can#make music and hey a lot of the people who do make GOOD music. and this goes for all *obscure* media#this post was mostly inspired by people talking about Barbie and those anti pick me girls like the pick nobody girls who insist thinking is#for boys and having fun with an empty brain is for girls. Greta gerwig is an artist. I haven’t seen the movie yet but I know it has a deeper#message than haha cute pink! I’ve seen the summaries about the true meaning. the pinkness and popularity doesn’t negate the narritive.#though in the notes I saw a lot of tumblristas comunistas shitting on the film for being one big ad that people *fell for* which tbh is#tbh almost as anti-intellectual. don’t get me wrong they milked this film to sell hella shit but I don’t believe kids who play with dolls#are the target audience as these people claim. Barbie is a culturally iconic symbol almost archetypical of societal expectations for women#you say barbie people think unblinking perfect plastic pink girly. reminds me of the poem The Last Mojave Indian Barbie. yeah yeah you all#hate brands but this one carries undeniable significance and makes for a powerful literary device. it’s been used many times before#sorry for writing a tag essay about a film I haven’t even seen but I’m tired of internet people focusing so much on proving others wrong#that they end up oversimplifying everything just as much as the other person. god I saw people doing this to Nimona saying transphobes were#looking too deep into her character and they’re reactionary clowns for making that jump. like for once the transphobes are right. she is#trans. it’s a queer story. and irl the first people who notice queerness are the bigots who can tell you’re different. sick owns telling#them the story’s not that deep is harmful and it’s like they’re ignoring the real message on purpose. okay enough rambling hehe! thanks#barbie#nimona

tko in shadow the hedgehog cosplay
Okie!
I wasn't really sure what to do for it at first for it but it was fun!
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
I've actually thought alot about K.O. introducing T.K.O. to the Sonic franchise and he doesn't care abt it much at first but then really gets into it. His favourite game is Shadow the Hedgehog of course!
Thanks for the suggestion! If anyone else has any ideas then send them over! I might pick them up at some point

Matt Baume about Dynasty being the only show on the air at the time with a gay main character: "On a show where the straight characters are constantly getting naked in bed together, the closest the gay characters are allowed to get is this one moment in what looks like a pizza hut"
Tumblr media
Me: Wait.
Tumblr media
"Dynasty was free to show Steven getting gay bashed, he just couldn't show a gay kiss."

they are being very nice and also rational (just explain everything rather than guess what I do and don't know—makes sense!) but I wish my coworkers would give me the benefit of the doubt sometimes instead of assuming that I am just a little baby randomly pressing keys when I do something "wrong"

Artfight murder against for @agriocnemis!
#my art#artfight#oc#fun bits:#The Cube in the foreground was originally a car battery but i kept Adding Pieces to it. idk what it is now. spcar spbattery#there's a recurring letterhead symbol on a lotta the paperwork/posters :) i had fun with those#the non-exit door is supposed to be... someone's office? you can see the name placard#the pink beast on the poster is a spcat. it's a fictional creature that lives in space magically. like a unicorn. just floats around#popular to draw on greeting cards probably#the cell shading itself is gradiented. yellow to red to purple#at some point someone went ham with a pack of those glitter star stickers in here. i think there's 6 of those around? and a smiley :)#we have that exact green towel at my museum job#the little black things next to the doors are the exact id badge scanners that they had at my home airport#their circle is red and turns green and unlocks the door when you put your id card in front of it-- even if obstructed by other material#i think these might scan something else though. no lanyard badges on them after all :]#i forgot to draw visible locks on the doors so i guess security at this location can just get fucked fighting with their computers lmao#i couldn't imagine if the alarm system was tied to the doors at work. fucking terrible#the vesda unit had been going off for two straight weeks in one building#in another the alarm panel decided to been for several hours straight with no way to stop it for undetermined reasons#could you IMAGINE if the LOCKS on the DOOR were affected by that?? NOTHING would be usable. absolute nightmare#its fine though. nothing bad ever happened in SPACE.#don't-- don't look at this image of two characters who have definitely had bad things happen to them in space.#shh. it's fine. it's dandy. it's great

Well DAMN you guys, I just watched the part where, on the cusp of being arrested and possibly killed for being Empire intruders, Caleb pulls the lost Beacon out of Jester’s haversack and with one fell swoop shifts the atmosphere in the room, the possible trajectory of the war, and the ENTIRE game’s storyline 180 degrees on its axis. What a MOMENT. what a MOVE.
AND I also finally met Essek which is exciting, I’ve been VERY curious about him.

#;c.amazotz#YEHAAA#his icons are finally done 😌😌😌#i love adding lil hidden meanings on my i.con b.orders#there's 4squares by each side representing not only eyes (lil dot on middle as the pupil)#but also there's 4 bc the 4th month in the m.aya calendar is the month of the bat#inspired by vases found feat bats + eyeballs that likely were a way of representing multitude of bats#u know; to not draw endless bats; u draw eyeballs and it alludes to the idea that theres a lot#bats were very important in m.aya culture for many diff reasons; these being symbolic; religious; sociopolitical; cultural and more#of course these morphed according regions and time but one thing that stuck to me that i wanted to allude to is#the connection between bats; c.amazotz and s.acrifice through d.ecapitation#hence the b.loody sword#the connection between bats and d.ecapitation follows the observation of v.ampire bats; whose main food was blood yes; but there is as well-#the natural trait they have of snatching fruit from trees;#which translates to them being identified with d.ecapitation#this is portrayed in the p.opol v.uh when c.amazotz snatches the head off one of the twin heroes#OH OH AND;; how they are associated with the underworld; but not just that; also the world of the living#bc bats live in caves however u see them flying in the air as well; so thats why i added the sun and the moon (up; down)#red is associated with the sun and blood alongside strenght#and blue is associated wiith the sky alongside other symbolism#mmm what else#and well; thats a glyph of the bat month#u know; despitetheir importance; information about c.amazotz himself is quite scarce#at least in regards to what has been found physically speaking#since a lot was destroyed + a lot of traditions were spread o.rally + our limited knowledge about m.aya culture in general#but once u start to put the pieces together; u can find a lot of info!#its very interesting!!! apologies for the ramble but theres so much to talk about its very waooowww#anyways; wiggly mouth c.amazotz supremacy

i just think he's neat but not neat enough to actually detail that minigun or you know actually finish this skdjhgkjhs my 40 year old babygirl
bonus cord because he was my warmup
Tumblr media
anime mom hairstyle... i didn't draw his 'scouter' because i wasn't feeling it. that's all lol
my two favorite college professors are anarchists lmao... in my defense in high school (Real Life) my social studies teacher was a self proclaimed anarchist. I mean he was, tbf to him, not to make it sound like he wasn't. He'd actively go to protests and tell us stories about them and write rage against the machine lyrics on the blackboard. he was my 2nd favorite teacher even tho i was like. super socially awkward around him lol. he once talked to me about bor/derla/nds because he saw me wearing my Ze/r0 hoodie (the one with the Vau/lt/symb/ol on the shoulder) specifically T/P/S. he liked playing Cla/ptr/ap, and i mumbled something incoherent about maining At/he/na because i was freaking out lol.
my favorite teacher was actually my physics teacher... he once put on a long purple wig [because he was bald] to commemorate the start of our electricity unit. i miss physics a lot... anyway cord having purple magic and long hair totally isn't because of that wig or anything...
sometimes i forget this stuff. i don't have a lot of memories of high school, it's nice to be able to write down the parts i do remember and don't actively regret. i guess that's also how Cord feels some days.
#i didn't use a reference for this and you can TELL lol#just needed to get some RANCID dread vibes out of my system#so i drew best boy#caleb oroitz#veneer#and guess WHAT i learned how to draw the biohazard symbol THAT'S RIGHT#debating on if i prefer white accents or not for his button up/tech... let me have this one#is he edgy enough? i hope so#i added the hearts for funsies. because i think it'd bother him to have them on his outfit#caleb WANTS to be cool and badass but... he's a big softie at heart#hence the hearts all across his outfit. and also cord seeing right through him and putting his head in his hands like ''d'awwww''#i won't lie the tiny cord was the highlight of drawing this#You just draw the radioactive hazard symbol and then draw geese flying off the edges 👍#Also in case you're wondering why the FUCK Caleb and Cord (and Jerric) designated their group using the biohazard symbol#Well 1 it's dope. I don't care. It's cool as fuck cringe is dead it's cool and mentally I'm a 12 year old boy okay it's COOL#Two because magic spreads like a plague and since they realized they were all 'infected' by the forced opening of the portal they adopted#The symbol for their lil resistance group. For funsies.#Cord has caused like. 80% of the problems in this universe. Cord my beloved but also oh God the horrors of unrestricted scientific advances#I kid. It's Crestfall abusing Cord's work that is the real horror...#He just wanted to do it to see if he could. And then they swooped in and took all his stuff and made it their own#And abused the shit out of it#For example mass producing the wings/masks for military use. Using the portal device to enter other dimensions and [REDACTED].#I mean they did the same with Jerric's hard light and Caleb's security system. So are we actually surprised? No!#They're assholes
