Do you think Kirby has drawn meta knight and his crew before. Just asking

Yeah I'd think so, he's a regular artist!

They'd get the fanciest frame they could find and hang his work in the middle of their executive meeting room.

#ask #I've been in a MK-adopts-Kirby headspace for a while so this response also has that lens applied #the entire crew is like his extended family so they probably had a breakdown when Kirby showed it to them #and then argued over how to frame it for days #this is also the first time I'm drawing the meta-knights and it's like this jdksjfdkd #meart #adopted au

this was originally a reblog draft that entered The Ramble Zone so it's its own post now

I know my vibes are in stark opposition to some LoZ takes tbh - like, if you (general) don't like critiquing the series' depiction of monarchy and good vs evil, that's fine (I will be exaggeratedly gritting my teeth about it) but just know that we're gonna disagree a lot! my whole entire thing about LoZ is examining what it means to be a monster and what stories a country chooses to preserve. us blocking each other is like the equivalent of going "understandable have a nice day" and driving off and I think that's Great Actually. I'll drive off shaking my head and going "haha wow what a weird take" and you'll be doing the same but HEY that's healthy imo. did not pass the fandom vibe check on either end! ice cream machine broke! understandable have a nice day! 🙌🏾

#shea muses aloud #but yeah the entire crux of my opinions on loz monarchy is just #no one is the villain of their own story #and i love examining stories through that lens #zelda discussion #i DID actually block that one person whose take i labeled radioactive before i reblogged from someone else's commentary #wasnt gonna put that in their notifs tbh #that is me driving off and muttering #but also straight up that extended into Misogyny Take and was way too intense

it's incredibly apt to me that the spiderverse team specifically drew upon brutalism as the primary style for the architecture of spider society because it's a style simultaneously linked to this notion of raw honesty (because you expose the material laying at the core of the structure) + social wellfare (as concrete was relatively cheaper to use and thus you got a lot of cheaper housing utilising this style), egalitarian by nature - it all looks the same, function over form etc.

but it ended up also getting associated with the structural flaws present in social wellfare systems by virtue of where it was applied as well as it being a style that's quite intense by nature (some would even argue ugly fjdfjk), and thus you get people implicitly associating it with those structural flaws and thinking of it as oppressive, even though the movement wasn't like. intentionally trying to cultivate that impression or be utilised in such a way.

which is interesting to me because that kind of duality works perfectly with the kind of tonal shift miles goes through when operating in that environment. spider society is at first wonderous and bright and brilliant, evocative of endless possibilties and stylistically almost like a large concrete web. but when miles is failed by that system, the large concrete web becomes constraining and suffocating.

hell, the idealogical roots of brutalism even work to an extent with the idealogical roots of spider society. neither was cultivated with the active intent to cause harm, and they're both associated with the desire to promote a future that is providing for the people utilsing it, but ultimately it's a tool. and any tool can be one that, inadvertently or otherwise, causes harm.

#the analogy and connections im drawing OF COURSE only extends so far as spider society is moreeee. an anaolgy #for the harm that's perpetuated if you subscribe to belief systems that exclude anomalous traits/experiences #<- and even THAT becomes messy because the very nature of the stakes naturalises that belief system as having legit concerns #but that analogy is also secondary in the story's priorities to providing a lens for the characters to be able to interact w the #suffering in their lives and qustion what purpose it holds - if any #so miles shocking miguel is tonally a celebration of the idea that you should leave systems that fail to support you in the way they should #but it's tonally an endorsement of miles having hope where miguel has succumbed to despair #spiderverse is very fond of using emotional shorthand (this isnt a criticism - its just acknowledgement of what its doing) and i think esp #in a film designed to be understood by teenagers/older kids and w a strict runtime this kind of technique is effective #even if it inherently has some drawbacks (naturalisation of the stakes if youre not careful about how you write the solution to those stake #its trying to say a lot with a broad emotional sweep and thats hard and shit can get lost in the water or implications not accounted for #but hey thats the fun of critical analysis #tunes talks spiderverse #long post

I’m glad you enjoyed Tomorrow Never Dies! I think about them sitting chest to chest on that motorcycle all the time lol

it was fun! i enjoyed the stunts a lot, even though i wish michelle had more fight scenes to showcase her martial prowess (she wasn’t allowed to do much in the final confrontation, but anyway. i liked her banter with bond enough)

listen man i'm gonna lay so much stuff on ya. life is too short to not have a queer reading of everything you engage with

#i realize i find so much more enjoyment in media when i extend the queer lens to everything #and when i say media i mean general mass media and not niche fandom stuff #since fandom is already incredibly queer #this is actually about beastars! that anime is the queerest and i LOVE the psychosexual implications #that to devour someone is seen as on par with being in a queer relationship #that there's an inherent intimacy in doing so #plus there's jazz and stop motion and auch a delightful uncanny valley #and the motif is arguably the most gorgeous thing ive ever heard in bflat major

People who try to analyze what happened on Tumblr on November 5th, 2020, often really overstate how much it was actually “about” Supernatural. As someone who has never been in the supernatural fandom ever but dID join in on the hysterical destielposting—it was really more about the stress of the pandemic and the 2020 presidential election.

The two biggest Youtubers I’ve seen try to dissect “what happened that November 5th” in video essays both weren’t American—- and I think that explains why they both tried to explain the hysteria primarily via analyzing the Supernatural fandom/the original show, rather than through the lens of the election. And while those videos are cool, valid, informational, and make lots of really well-considered interesting points— I can tell you that me and almost all my mutuals had literally no knowledge or interest in the fact that “oh supernatural had made nods at the ship in the past but the creators were adamant that I wouldn’t be canon” or etc etc etc etc. the first time I learned about any of that context was way later, watching videos where people claimed that fandom history context (that I did not know anything about) was the actual reason for the hysteria.

But the reality is that people latched on to the Destiel stuff because it was a piece of big useless inane zero-stakes fandom news in a time when we were desperately waiting for serious high stakes election news. We were latching onto a “positive “ piece of inane stupid fandom news in a time of great stress, with all the desperation of a drowning man who latches onto whatever piece of wood will keep him afloat.

The core of the hysteria was that Americans (who make up a huge chunk of tumblr’s userbase) were currently glued to their laptops watching the live presidential election vote counts come in. These vote counts were taking an extended amount of time due to the pandemic causing high numbers of mail-in ballots, resulting in a constant state of Election Day Stress for multiple days straight.

This was also during the height of the Pandemic. People had predicted Trump’s presidency would be bad; no one had predicted it would be this apocalyptically bad. No one had predicted pandemics and lockdowns and hospitals overflowing with bodybags. remember Trump spreading Covid lies and conspiracies?? There were so many Qanon conspiracies about democrats being Satanic child traffickers who had to be put to death, and coup threats were mounting from the right wing side. It seemed like this election was a choice between ‘centrist democrat’ and “apocalyptic right wing conspiracy theory authoritarianism,” in the midst of pandemic conditions that people feared would never ever improve— and it seemed like a close election.

Another major point was that Trump voters were more likely to be antimaskers/Covid deniers, while Biden voters were more likely to take the pandemic seriously— so Biden voters were more likely to send in mail-in ballots instead of risking the in-person voting crowds, which meant their ballots would take much longer to count. And so, in many state electoral vote counts, it would initially seem like Trump was very far in the lead— only for Biden to slooooowly build up an agonizingly small lead as the mail in ballots came in, and then defeat Trump at the very end.

So you’re just watching these news sites giving live election updates, refreshing the page every 2 minutes to see if you’re going to live under a spineless centrist democrat or a literal Qanon Dictatorship. And then you go on tumblr to distract yourself, and there’s more election posting, and more agonizing over the votes, and more stress and despair—-

And then it’s been days and we’re right at the crucial tipping point where it’s anyone’s game and the next few hours will determine whether Trump will win, so you need to keep your eye on the vote count, because the next hours will determine the future of the pandemic and your country and your plans for your entire life—

And then stupid Destiel becomes canon! And it becomes canon in the silliest way possible!

If Destiel had become canon at any other time, it would have been a big goofy tumblr celebration? But we wouldn’t have gotten the insane explosion of hysterical interaction.

The entire core of it was the contrast between the inane meaningless stupidity of fandom news vs the actual stressful election news you wanted to hear! It really is best conveyed in that meme where Castiel says “I love you” and Dean indifferently responds with a piece of important election news.

It’s about the contrast between the low-stakes inanity of fandom and the massive life-destroying stakes of a terrifying election. There really was no reason it had be Supernatural specifically, except that Supernatural was a thing everyone knew basic things about from dashboard osmosis— it could’ve been any other equally huge silly fandom ship news about a ship everyone *knew of* but might not necessarily be invested in (ex. Stucky becoming canon, Johnlock becoming canon, Kirk/Spock becoming more canon somehow, etc etc etc.)

I think it’s true that people who weren’t paying agonizingly close attention to the American election news got swept up in it, and that non American Supernatural fans also were extremely excited for purely fandom reasons — but the entire reason it blew up to an unprecedented degree was because of that core of stressed out terrified Americans glued to their computers watching election results and suddenly receiving stupid fandom news instead, and deciding to just hysterically parodically hyper-celebrate this absurd useless zero-stakes news.

I think it was also all elevated by the fact that, as I said before, this happened at the crucial “tipping point” of the election where the next few hours would determine the winner. The fact that Biden began to slowly develop a lead in the hours after made it feel, hysterically, as if the hours after Destiel became canon was somehow the turning point where he began to win; so celebrating Destiel felt like celebrating that slow turn towards victory.

The tl,dr is that it’s so important to Remember the Fifth of November …..in preparation the inevitable hysteria that will happen in the presidential election on November 5th of next year. XD. Personally I’m rooting for Johnlock or Frodo/Sam to somehow become canon in the eleventh hour right before the democrats win

#November 5th #november 5 2020 #the fifth of november #just a random ramble #November 5th 2020 is such an important day to me #it really is a holiday #but it does confuse me when I see people analyzing it primarily as a supernatural thing #instead of a ‘hysteria over an election reaches a breaking point when inane zero stakes fandom news comes out and we all latch onto it’thing #but yeah!! #this is my personal essay out of love for the holiday

#okay I’ve been ~ruminating~ on ai art a lot recently and trying to place it #bc I do actually spend a lot of my life rotating the concept of art in my mind like a bug #and I think it’s fundamentally a personal experience but also not something I have an extended essay worth of stuff to confidently say #which is why this is going in the tags lmao #but for me a lot of art appreciation and understanding comes from getting the medium #I became a lot more fascinated and moved by oil paintings when I started oil painting myself #I love textile art because I make a lot of it so I see it through that lens #and ai art falls in a similar vein as modern poetry I think #a lot of it is this weird low effort splodge of shapes and colors and hitting the enter key randomly #like okay I guess….idk what you want me to do with thi? #anyways I think secret horses is a good example. like do something with the medium to create a cool result #then it registers as more than just some limp blackout poetry
