Is everything ok?

Hi! yeah, everything is fine, sorry for the silence!

I'm in my last year of college right now, so I'm really busy with my thesis! I was originally hoping to get this tournament started before the semester started, but I didnt set everything up quick enough.

I've been thinking about running it during either fall or winter break, because I do still want to do this tournament! I have the bracket made and everything, I just don't have enough time to do it right now

#thanks for checking in #funnily enough im in class right now #doing some character designs for my thesis rn #im a bit behind tho #i shouldve done my storyboard already #anyway #lemme get back to work lol #answered asks

Compilation of EVERY single time they changed Hobie's filter in the digital version:

Left: Theatrical release Right: Digital release

You might have to click on some of them to get a better look at Hobie, sadly I don't have a video editor that allows me to make better edits than these :')

#This took so long to make lol #cause I had to edit every scene with Hobie from both versions so I could watch them right after one another to compare them #I did this with ALL the scenes he's in also the ones where he's on screen as spider-punk #but they only changed his filters in these scenes so it was a waste of time :') #sidenote: no it wasn't it's never a waste of time to look at hobie I just couldn't use it for my GIFset lol #I also made a bouns one but I'm not allowed to post more than 30 GIFs in one post apparently so I guess I just won't add it then... #but Hobie was basically filterless during all these scenes in the theatrical version #I like that they gave him more different filters in the digital version #the only change I don't like is in the first GIFs #cause like that one post pointed out it looks like they removed his lipstick for some reason #also really wish I had a better video editor so we could get a closer look at Hobie but I did my best with what I had #also slowed some of them down to get a better look at them #been having this idea for a while and now I finally finished it! #which means I can go back to working on my fics now #hopefully lol #also lemme know if there are some other scens you guys want me to make comparisons of #cause I have both versions #the theatrical release isn't the highest quality though so if you know where I can get my hands on a better version lemme know ;) #hobie brown #spider punk #miles morales #spider man #peter b parker #jess drew #miguel o'hara #spider man across the spider verse #across the spider verse #across the spiderverse #atsv #theatrical version

hoh nancy wheeler

(tagging @netflixnormalthings for their awesome research and screenshots and @lumaxramblings bc we had Many discussions abt hoh nancy)

so a few weeks ago i made this post, about nancy not wearing earplugs and using the shotgun (and guns in general over the seasons) and how this affected her hearing. but then it really did get me thinking: why don't we see more content about hard of hearing nancy wheeler?

i see hoh steve all the time, which is fair! steve has gotten his fair share of head trauma and no doubt has problems from this. (and i do love hoh steve! don't get me wrong!) but i rarely see anything about hoh nancy, even though she has consistently dealt with firearms since season 1 without the proper ear protection.

just for reference: whispering is around 30 decibels, normal speaking voices around 60 db, and anything above 70 db for extended amounts of time will start to damage the ear, and anything over 120 db will cause immediate damage to the ears.

for reference: in season 4, nancy fires the shotgun four times while blasting vecna out of the window. in season 3, she fires hoppers shotgun a few times during the fight at the cabin, and this doesn't include firing at billy or the fireworks they all set off inside starcourt (which, should've given them all a little hearing damage, if we're honest).(fireworks decibels + info under the cut!) nor does it account for the times she shot at the demogorgon in season 1.

anyway, the point is: there is no way that nancy is not hard of hearing. firing a shotgun once without protection is enough to blow your hearing out, but four times? and it's not even the first time she's dealt with firearms. she's shown to be one of the most, if not the most, proficient with guns. noise induced hearing loss is a very real thing, it damages the hair cells within the ear--these cannot grow back. and shotguns breach the threshold where just one close and sudden exposure can cause instant and permanent hearing loss.

there isn't much else for me to say here, this was really just a comprehensive guide, or even "proof" that nancy should be hard of hearing, or at least a wider accepted headcanon than it is. give me nancy, who, after even season 1, starts to have a hard time hearing what other people are saying, and learns to read lips instead. give me stubborn nancy who won't admit that there's anything wrong, that she can hear just fine, thank you, and she doesn't need help. i know nancy typically has the best hearing out of the main cast, usually the one who hears the danger first, but i don't know...it just seems more plausible to me for nancy to be hard of hearing.

#stranger things #nancy wheeler #hoh nancy #idk i just think it should be a bigger headcanon! i've only read one fic with hoh nancy in it and :((( it makes me so sad. #uhhhh i don't really know what else to tag this as lol #st headcanons #i guess? #anyway. it's just something to consider!!! #not going to tag this as ronance bc it's not but i know yall would Get It #also i added links to like the cdc and a few other websites just to back it up so if they don't work pls lemme know!! #ok thank u <3 #i also feel like i should make this disclaimer again lmao: i have shot a shotgun b4 without ear plugs. IT WILL BLOW YOUR HEARING OUT

Wait wait wait

You do witchcraft???

That's so cool! I had no idea there were other witches in the TMNT fandom!!!

What kind of witchcraft do you practice?? Personally, I deal mostly with divination, but I'd love to hear more about other people's crafts!

I do! ^^ Though admittedly my practice has been a little bit dormant as of late because I sort of fell out of habit after An Event which was a Bit Disruptive to My Life lol. But I guess I kind of dabble in a bit of everything? I dunno if I could pin myself down to just one kind of practice yet, I still sort of consider myself a Baby Witch. But I really like making little spelljars and casting candle spells and things of the like, and I've been trying to learn tarot for a while now! I also really like making and drawing sigils... For a while part of the joy for me has been just Learning New Things.

^ ft. gecko enclosure and tail lol. BoS and altar not pictured.

#ive got kind of a budget witchcraft thing going on lmao #coz thats kind of my fav part of it? that you can kind of just do it however a little bit so long as you have like #intention and are mindful #all my spelljars are the bottles that vaccines would come in at my old workplace (i used to work at a vet office!) #and since we would mostly just throw them out i could just take them and repurpose them so now ive got a ton #ive got a small collection of crystals coz i like those #my practice is a lot of meditation and grounding and mindfulness and shit like that #blah blah blah tricking myself into taking care of me etc etc #for a while i would. like. every day meditate ground and choose an intention for the day #and pick out some pocket crystals to bring with me that matched that intention #but then my schedule got fucked in eight different ways = 3 = so im working on getting back to it #eventually lol #honestly i love talking abt this stuff and would love to get back into it/meet other ppl who do witchcraft its been a hot second since #like #ive truly indulged... #asks #anon #witchcraft #witchblr #i gotta follow some witchy blogs smh lemme know if yall have any suggestions

#vocal synth wip #synthv #genbu lite #sorry i like. inexplicably fell head over heels for genbu both his fucked up lite and his actual bank #how do i explain that i love genbu Because i think he kinda sucks without pissing off both genbu fans and genbu haters #actually thats not fair his full bank seems decent and out of the volor voices hes not That Bad #he sounds a little worse quality than eleanor (who is personally not my taste but shes solid despite that) #but hes not quite renri level or anything (and i say that will all the love in my heart for synthv renri <3 <3 <3) #(although shes free so i cant get too mad either way LOL) #(but genbu was also the first male bank we got for synthv so i cant get too mad at him either <3 hes an old man) #but like. he sounds like a decent but slightly glitchy utau bank. and his lite sounds like a REALLY glitchy utau bank HJKDSHKds #listen. i havent been able to use utau in forever because i had gotten a new computer a few years back #and i didnt wanna break anything by switching locales so i havent been able to install it orz #and im still struggling to wrap my head around openutau.....i'll get there. i'll get there someday #but genbu and especially his fucked up lite is kinda scratching that itch you know #like his lite is apparently based off his higher range and not his mid range? so thats why hes always fucking YELLING #thats so so funny to me i love that he sounds so odd. fucked up little robot man who screams and whispers randomly #lemme tell u working with his lite specifically. i imagine this isnt a problem on his full because u have all the ranges #but the lite since its one range you have to FIGHT HIM to get him to either stop yelling or speak up HGKDHJds #its wonderful. i love a project

[arolesbianism]

Ok did some fact checking and yeah unless I missed smth outside of Wendy, Walter is the character who refers to Abigail by name the most! Which is absolutely delightful news for me, the number one Abigail Walter besties believer

#rat rambles #starve posting #wurt is in second place with her saying abby-gill twice 👍 #and the only other person who reffers to her by name is webber in his sisturn dialogue where he calls it a little abigail house #wait that reminds me I forgot to check some ppls sisturn dialogue but I did word search abigiail and abby on everyone's pages #so unless wurt mentions her no one else should have brough her up? lemme go check wurt tho #ok no other abby-gill mentions #anyways back to walter even outside of him actually reffering to her by name hes the only one that rly seems to like. #actually talk to her like a person? #like dont get me wrong other characters have talked to her instead of at her but walter is like. not being weird abt it. #he just talks to her casually like he would to any other person! and I love that so much! #hes even like the only one who seems to recognize her flower as her #ok well wormwood does too weirdly enough #but I dont think anyone else properly does? wortox might tho its just kinda unclear #but yeah walter has to treat abby like a person to make up for webber saying 'wendy would have been so happy if it worked' after failing to #revive abby to her face lol #I love webber so much but he is also like 10 so its unsurprising for him to be a bit too blunt sometimes

[akkivee]

biggest gripe is when they don’t include kuukou’s kindness in writing even tho it’s as integral to his character as his brattiness

#vee queued to fill the void #i’m not going to beef with the stage play again nobody wants to see that lol #like when you make kuukou’s attitude the main focus of conflict i get it genuinely!!!! it is an ongoing source of conflict for him #and the easiest route to write down if you don’t want to challenge kuukou who is incredibly self actualised #kuukou will be his own hype man acting like he’s the hottest shit lmao but he knows and readily admits he’s still weak and has growing to do #that mindset isn’t the easiest to challenge (esp in bat vs mtr play where the story rightfully had other things to focus on) #so rolling back his development unfortunately makes sense lol #but removing kuukou’s kindness makes no sense to me actually lol esp since it undermines all the work he’s put into his religion #i’ve said it once i’ll say it again: you don’t get as far as kuukou has in his ascetic training without understanding the core values lol!!! #wisdom and compassion!!!!! wisdom and compassion!!!!!! #the unami chapter puts him in a tough spot because even tho he’s in the right it wasn’t necessarily the correct answer to the problem #and he had to grapple with ichiro’s hands being tied due to the bigger picture and trying to help unami blindly without the whole story #which is exactly how you need to challenge him lol his principles are right but life isn’t fcking easy lol!!!! #the brain’s about to start vomiting about kuukou’s life cycles and that needs to be a whole other post so lemme not lol #but kuukou’s adventures start because he sees a boy in trouble and wants to help #and kuukou wants to be able to look at his life when it ends and say he did good he lived it to its fullest and he wasn’t ashamed of it #and some of that impact gets taken away when you remove his kindness 😤 #c: kuukou👑

I've been meaning to make a bunch of phonecalls for months and i got them all done yesterday @__@

#turns out the eiss I THOUGHT I went to when I was 18 turns out to have been a different one entirely #I got the name swapped with the hospital I was born in which is in the same city which is why it sounded familiar #Which is a good thing because the place I was calling to ask for my records just kept saying ''lemme direct you to records -_-'' #And forwarded me to a number that never answered my call and never attempted to reach out #Which like. Even if I wasn't in the records they probs shoulda attempted to return the call after a few months of trying right ... #I don't think they even knew if I wasn't in there or not lol... I never spoke to a person in their department #BUT the place I DID go to immediately was like ''yah click this link and fill it out and we'll get back in 5 days..! Bye'' #So that's another thing down! I think that's actually almost everything. I think there's one more place I need to check out for records now #But I've been trying and they got bought out by a different company soooo... might be tricky #I'll try when I get home from work. I've been trying since early August last year ... they're a tricky one... I'll get them yet

That first panel of that comic I just reblogged randomly reminded me of that time when I was in kindergarten & I came home to find the door locked. My mom had always told me before school if she wasn't going to be home when I got home so I thought maybe she was just asleep or something & banged on the door for a while. I eventually concluded she wasn't home.

Normally, if she isn't going to be home, she would also tell me to go to Ms. Hilda's house (a little old lady across the road that we often visited), so I started walking back up the long ass gravel driveway. When I got to the end of the driveway, I saw Ms. Hilda tending the garden in her front yard. She looked up & called out to me, and I was initially relieved, but then suddenly I panicked. I was just filled with fear as the woman who was basically another grandma to be stood up and told me to come over.

I turned and ran as fast as my little legs could down the driveway, across the the backyard and into my father's shed. I locked the door and just started crying.

I heard Ms. Hilda knock on the door and tell me that my mom told her to that she and my grandmother went out to run errands, and to have me come over like I usually do when my mom isn't home. I refused to listen, refused to unlock the door. I just kept crying & saying that I wanted my mom.

I think I did eventually unlock the door for her, but I don't remember what else happened.

#tmi #i have a tendency for delayed reactions #often when someone startles me it takes me a second or two to actually react (so i was often accused of pretending) #when we got robbed at work i was feeling fine that night but i had the next 4 days off anyway & lemme tell you #my brain started working overtime the following night. i was so anxious that i could barely sleep #when i went to europe in high school with the french teacher and some other students I got left behind in the bathroom in a museum in spain #i was pretty calm & after looking around a little bit (i didn't think they could've gone far) i just waited by the entrance #eventually someone noticed i was missing and told the teacher so she went to look for me. when i saw her walking up to me i started crying #similarly in elementary school one time my mom & i went to the grocery store. we were in line when she realized she forget to get cereal #so she sent me to go grab it. but when i came back to the registers i couldn't find her. i went up to the customer service desk & told them #so they called for her over the PA system and when my mom came to the desk guess who started crying #goes to show i'm pretty chill & rational until i relax. then my brain turns on the sirens lol
