the pet

big PET PEEVE of mine regarding creative advice is when big timers frame things as 'let me tell you what is not valid creation'. i personally always try to frame as 'let me tell you what IS valid creation' because if you are talkin art then, guess what, EVERYTHING IS VALID

my BUCKAROO SENSES always get triggered over these discussions of ‘THIS IS THE SET WAY YOU HAVE TO DO THINGS TO MAKE IT BIG’ because... it is just not true. i mean HECK just look at my career. (and EXTRA LARGE WARNING if someone is charging for this 'advice’)

instead what i personally look for, and what i try to do myself, is say ‘this is what worked for me it might not be for everyone but i am happy to tell you about my path and you can take from that what you will. it is not the RIGHT path, it is MY path. LETS SHARE’

of course this is mostly SEMANTICS you could probably go back through my posts and find thousands of times when i messed this up, but this is what i TRY to do because it is what i believe. YOUR PATH IS JUST AS VALID AS MINE whether it is well traveled or cutting through the brush

alright buckaroos thank you for listening to my ART RAMBLES. LOVE IS REAL lets get out there and TROT

running a little late, but someone's finally arriving at the @kirbyoctournament !

sent in to the tourney by her well meaning friends, starstruck is a Totally Normal adult waddle dee from king dedede's kingdom of dream land! she's here to try and meet new people, and maaaybe get out of her anxious shell a little bit!

equipped with her customary cheerful attitude, she's also sporting a brand new backpack full of lovingly packed goodies to help her through the event.

if you'd like to get to know her a little better, you can check out her tag on my blog, or these three important comics from previously!

a few notes for any interactions

🌸 despite being a waddle dee, other waddle dees typically don't like being around her, and folks who already know what a waddle dee should be like also tend to get a weird vibe off her. 🌸 she is quite friendly and approachable, but prone to extreme anxiety if she perceives she might have done something wrong or inappropriate. tiny wanya takes criticism the way a handful of hay takes a flame. 🌸 if you have wings and you take her flying she'll never leave your side. she's only palm sized, so if you are big and have wings or can fly, please pick her up and go flying with her please please pleeaase she wants to go go flying and fawn over your wings so so bad 🌸 for the purposes of the tourney, which by merit of its existence is something of an au timeline, consider this event to completely predate her ability to summon these.

#my art #my comics #starstruck dee #kirby #bandana waddle dee #meta knight #king dedede #throwing her into the ring!!! tiny pink bouncy stressball (ball of stress) in there with all these incredibly cool and powerful ocs! #just trotting from your house in the countryside to the Community Gathering and finding a whole bunch of literal legends there #if your oc has wings she is going to be following them around like this -> 🥺👉👈 <- the whole time. just so you know #don't let meta knight know!! she thought he had the market for both “cool knight” and “pretty wings” covered but she's in for a surprise! #anyway. phew! finally finished this just in time! excited to be participating!!! best of luck everybody!

what kind of favour do you require in exchange for an equineswap jiang yanli

I will fight god if that's what it takes.

No favour required! These guys were in the original doodle dump!

#mdzs #equineswap au #wei wuxian #jiang yanli #jiang cheng #There were a lot more horses that were supposed to go into that first equineswap post...but I got short on time to clean them up #All the siblings have winding cutie marks! Maybe its a yunmeng thing or maybe its just a representation of their bond #the little cutie mark stamp is cute but lets have some variation! lets play around with it! #that sais...the temptation to make JYL's mark soup was very strong. But too silly and too much of a disservice to her character. #Even though her main usage of powers in this au is probably just to make soup #They are a little horse posse...trotting around together was the real magic all along.... #Oh god if this follows canon wwx gives up his horn in illegal horn transplant surgery #do you think wen qing carves and dyes it so it looks similar to JC's original horn? She *has* to...right? #Anyways! Thank you beloved mutual Stackedbirds for giving me an excuse to post this! #PS: I would do anything u asked without incentive btw. Just putting that out there

does Mr Chuck Tingle know about you bc like. dream team honestly

JGFDKNSL I DON'T THINK HE DOES not sure if Chuck is into comics anyway but! this is a huge compliment! big fan of his general ethos, and while I haven't read the infamous Pounded in the Butt By My Own Butt and its sequels (yet...) I very much enjoyed Camp Damascus. drop-kicked my spine out of my body. very spoogy and gruesome and great story flow/pacing. looking forward to getting a copy of Bury Your Gays :D

#I'd also love the time to like. read it. #I am so tired folks aaaaanyway thanks huge compliment #let's trot

Phone scribble time. Going back to my cursed Destiny roots with a bit of Mara Sjur and their big gay tragic lore.

#Destiny 2 #ghosty scribbles #i think about this scene every day #i hate this game rn fuck #stop trotting out mara sov right when i think i'm free #just let me go let me live #sjur eido #mara sov

tonight i flee to you, to breathe and in the hush of our together, all my trouble flees

i don’t think i need to state that this silly little number simulator meant a lot to me. i’d wanted to maybe do something a little more grand - and maybe eventually i will - but one of my favorite artists put out a new EP the same day the game’s end was announced, and it served as a kind of bittersweet musical backdrop to the whole thing for me.

there are going to be a million different interpretations of the end of Blaseball, as there rightly should be, but i like to think there are some where everyone gets to be happy. the teletwins deserve that as much as anyone, i think.

#blaseball #jessica telephone #sebastian telephone #a few bonus thoughts for the tags: #jt was the reason i joined the tigers (she was still on them back in s4) #my first art after fall ball started was of the teletwins #i care them a lot. i don't think i was ever super vocal about it outside of my locked twitter and various discords #also yes i am aware that it's ironic to use the lyrics from idioglossia given the later references to certain biblical twins #but neither you nor i have the time to sit down and let me trot out the 20 page google doc #about the alchemist and how he lives through june etc etc. #so take this as a reference to the alchemist and his dead twin & not to june and july #given the title is Literally 'idioglossia' #lorne art

Today we learned not to trust ice bridges.

#he was looking at it before i came over so i figured he had it under control #nope #just fucken trotted right onto it #i rarely help him or intervene when we come upon new terrain #he always recovers well when he messes up and he learns best on his own in situations like these #the only thing i help him with are big steep drops #he knows to wait for me to grab the back of his harness to break his fall before he jumps off #but aside from from that i always just let him figure things out on his own #and because of that he's become a very clever and confident hiker even in difficult terrain #i just unclip him from my belt and let him use his brain unimpeded #and usually he handles himself really well

desperately wish there was a way to toggle western riding animations in sso. me when my horse has all western tack and i'm riding like a dweeb

#sso #star stable online #slash j. not the part about wanting to ride western but the dweeb part #let! me! ride! western! #i hate the trot bob thing it's so strange to me. then again i'm not an equestrian and didn't grow up around horses #i just watched a lot of cowboy stuff and they did not do that #i want to look cool holding the reins with one hand :// #where's the modding community.

Monica is the head negotiator for the Writer’s Guild, a collective of Hollywood screenwriters who are edging closer and closer to a full on strike if the studios refuse to meet their incredibly reasonable demands. All the writers are asking for is fair treatment and compensation for their labor, but after a meeting with the greedy T-Rex CEO of Cobbler Studios goes south, a strike is called.

Now Monica and her companions are marching the picket lines and making their voices heard, working together to create better working across the film industry.

Unfortunately, this puts a terrible distance between Monica and her girlfriend Holly, who happens to be the physical manifestation of her own screenwriting. With no way to process these feelings, Monica looks for solace in the writing community itself, but will these efforts be enough to battle the cruel, money-hungry CEOs?

This important no sex tale is 4,100 words of collective bargaining as laborers organize to protest a nauseating dinosaur CEO with the power of solidarity and love.

----

AUTHORS NOTE: greeting buckaroos. this tingler is given to all FOR FREE in solidarity with writers guild buds who are currently making their voices heard and striking with incredibly reasonable demands.

the wga is asking that any donations go to the ENTERTAINMENT COMMUNITY FUND which is used to directly help those in the entertainment industry in need and who will feel the financial burden of not working during a strike.

little dream 

#actually he was very cheeky today #he's gotten into a habit of delaying recall but then compensating by doing a REALLY enthusiastic u turn when he's ready #so like he'll be trotting up to a dog #I'll recall him #he'll ignore me and continue to greet the dog #and once he's greeted it he dramatically springs around and sprints back to me #sitting eagerly for his treat #what do i do??? #like i should still reward right? #or do i not reward because he KNOWS what recall is and he's not doing it correctly? #he's getting the best of both worlds and he knows it #say hi to a friend AND get a snack #no sacrifice needed #honestly it's not a huge deal because we are literally the only family on the beach that has any recall training at all #and people will let their dogs approach from a hundred yards away #so it's not like harold is being rude or intrusive to other dogs #i just have such a hoard that i like to minimise interaction with other dogs and mind our own business #because we don't need to make friends with every dog we pass #if harold looks REALLY excited to meet a dog and it seems friendly and appropriate i'll let him go and say hi #but usually i recall him because the other dog looks rude unsure or obnoxious #but NO he never listens #nor does he care #because everyone is a friend regardless of whether they try to eat him #harold #dogs

Name: Eidon Muller Gender: Cis-Male Race: Tiefling (Demon-spawn) Class: Slayer/Wizard/Eldritch Knight Height/Weight: 5'6, 160lbs Sexuality: Bisexual & Ambiamorous; leans slightly heavier to men if only because of pragmatic reasons.

Personality: A sullen young man, and often quiet, Eidon's childhood was never stable due to his parent's self-determination at the cost of granting a stable life to their children. Intelligent but ill educated, Eidon attached to his sister both as a way to have a purpose in a tumultuous childhood and to give Emmaleigh the stability she needed. Unaware of the biological differences between him and his sister, Eidon felt strange and eventually guilty that he grew up stronger and taller than his sister and was able to survive while she was not. His parents never blamed him for her death, but the eternal question of ‘why Eidon?’ was on their minds, failing to realize that the simple difference was nutrition.

When his parents offered him a chance to train with a Slayer, Eidon didn't so much take it because he enjoyed killing, but he wanted to escape from home. He was talented and observant, with his mentor teaching him how to read. Disliking being used by mercenary groups to harm others when he got older, Eidon attempted a more luxurious job, finding himself bored and having the guilt still gnaw at him.

Fighting the Staglord and eventually the Trolls was almost automatic for him, and it gave him a way to deal with violence while keeping his kingdom at arm's length, half expecting Jamandi or Varn to take his barony from him. It was during the Bloom that made Eidon realize his role and his position as Baron, and that after a lifetime of guilt and inability to correct mistakes, he could either allow it to happen again, or finally be able to do something about it. He slowly began to become a better person, a better friend, and a better lover, eventually worthy enough of becoming King of the Stolen Lands.

Biography: Eidon Muller was born in the River Kingdoms to two tieflings who left Mendev in hopes of a better life. They distrusted authority and found the River Freedoms far more to their liking, becoming hunters and subsistence farmers, leaning heavier on hunting to always be on the move should local bandits or towns began to squabble. Eidon was the eldest of two twins by five minutes and both he and his younger sister Emmleigh were tieflings. Emmaleigh, unlike her parents and brother, was born as an obligate carnivore. As the two grew, it was painfully obvious that Emma wasn't getting the nutrition that she needed, and Eidon was shooting up like a tree. As such, Eidon became his little sister's protector and when the rare guest came over, many assumed a one or even two year difference between the two. Between the constant moving, the lack of proper nutrition, Emmaleigh wasn't able to fight back a terrible fever and died at the age of eight.

Eidon managed to survive and felt terrible guilt, throwing himself into his parents' trade, and withdrawing socially. A charmless, intense boy, his skill with his blade and bow was noticed when he was 11 by one of his parent's former mercenary friends, a skilled Slayer. Deciding that living at home would be detrimental, Eidon went with his family's friend and became his apprentice. For ten years, Eidon would train and travel through the River Kingdoms doing mercenary work, before heading to Brevory to strike out on his own at the age of 21. For two years he worked as a bodyguard for a minor noble, having a brief affair with his son that was discovered. Being free from obligations, Eidon was able to partake in Jamandi Aldori summons for adventurers, not realizing he was about to stumble onto a path that would make him face his ghosts and question his values.
