the thing is there's like, a point of oversaturation for everything, and it's why so many things get dropped after a few minutes. and we act like millennials or gen z kids "have short attention spans" but... that's not quite it. it's more like - we did like it. you just ruined it.

capitalism sees product A having moderate success, and then everything has to come out with their "own version" of product A (which is often exactly the same). and they dump extreme amounts of money and environmental waste into each horrible simulacrum they trot out each season.

now it's not just tiktokkers making videos; it's that instagram and even fucking tumblr both think you want live feeds and video-first programming. and it helps them, because videos are easier to sneak native ads into. the books coming out all have to have 78 buzzwords in them for SEO, or otherwise they don't get published. they are making a live-action remake of moana. i haven't googled it, but there's probably another marvel or starwars something coming out, no matter when you're reading this post.

and we are like "hi, this clone of project A completely misses the point of the original. it is soulless and colorless and miserable." and the company nods and says "yes totally. here is a different clone, but special." and we look at clone 2 and we say "nope, this one is still flat and bad, y'all" and they're like "no, totally, we hear you," and then they make another clone but this time it's, like, a joyless prequel. and by the time they've successfully rolled out "clone 89", the market is incredibly oversaturated, and the consumer is blamed because the company isn't turning a profit.

and like - take even something digital like the tumblr "live streaming" function i just mentioned. that has to take up server space and some amount of carbon footprint; just so this brokenass blue hellsite can roll out a feature that literally none of its userbase actually wants. the thing that's the kicker here: even something that doesn't have a physical production plant still impacts the environment.

and it all just feels like it's rolling out of control because like, you watch companies pour hundreds of thousands of dollars into a remake of a remake of something nobody wants anymore and you're like, not able to afford eggs anymore. and you tell the company that really what you want is a good story about survival and they say "okay so you mean a YA white protagonist has some kind of 'spicy' love triangle" and you're like - hey man i think you're misunderstanding the point of storytelling but they've already printed 76 versions of "city of blood and magic" and "queen of diamond rule" and spent literally millions of dollars on the movie "Candy Crush Killer: Coming to Eat You".

it's like being stuck in a room with a clown that keeps telling the same joke over and over but it's worse every time. and that would be fine but he keeps fucking charging you 6.99. and you keep being like "no, i know it made me laugh the first time, but that's because it was different and new" and the clown is just aggressively sitting there saying "well! plenty of people like my jokes! the reason you're bored of this is because maybe there's something wrong with you!"

#this was much longer i had to cut it down for legibility #but i do want to say i am aware this post doesnt touch on human rights violations as a result of fast fashion #that is because it deserves its own post with a completely different tone #i am an environmental educator #so that's what i know the most about. it wouldn't be appropriate of me to mention off-hand the real and legitimate suffering #that people are going through #without doing my research and providing real ways to help #this is a vent post about a thing i'm watching happen; not a call to action. it would be INCREDIBLY demeaning #to all those affected by the fast fashion industry to pretend that a post like this could speak to their suffering #unfortunately one of the horrible things about latestage capitalism as an activist is that SO many things are linked to this #and i WANT to talk about all of them but it would be a book in its own right. in fact there ARE books about each level of this #and i encourage you to seek them out and read them!!! i am not an expert on that i am just a person on tumblr doing my favorite activity #(complaining) #and it's like - this is the individual versus the industry problem again right because im blaming myself #for being an expert on environmental disaster (which is fucking important) but not knowing EVERYTHING about fast fashion #i'm blaming myself for not covering the many layers of this incredibly complicated problem im pointing out #rather than being like. yeah so actually the fault here lies with the billion dollar industries actually. #my failure to be able to condense an incredibly immense problem that is BOOK-LENGTH into a single text post that i post for free #is not in ANY fucking way the same amount of harm as. you know. the ACTUAL COMPANIES doing this ACTUAL THING for ACTUAL MONEY. #anyway im gonna go donate money while i'm thinking about it. maybe you can too. we can both just agree - well i fuckin tried didn't i #which is more than their CEOs can say

Tl;Dr - I stopped playing the game but I like the characters and I wanna draw them but idk if the wiki I use is up to date for cards

Do u know any wikis that have up to date cards for all the twst characters-

Asking specifically bc of Malleus cause I can't tell anymore if he has any more new cards bc HE DOESN'T EVEN HAVE A 100 DISNEY ANIVERSARY CARD IN THE WIKI I USE 😭

Like compared to everyone else in Disanomia, he has 12 cards (in the wiki I use) and then Lilia has 17 cards 💀

Cause I think Malleus has a Bean's Day card as well, but that could just be a fanmade one, I don't have JP twst nor ENG twst anymore so I can't confirm it myself urhghrhevw 🫠

Malleus doesn't have a Beans Day card, so that would've been fanmade! and the 100 anniversary cards are actually the new round of birthday cards, so most of the characters don't have 'em yet -- Malleus should be getting his in a couple of days, when his birthday event starts! oh god my keeeeeys

I think the wiki.gg stays pretty up to date? it looks to me like they have everything that's currently up through JP, at least. :O I did go through and do a quick count just because I couldn't believe Malleus only had 12 cards, but. he really does have the least...defeated only by Silver with 13...astonishing. we need his gargoyle club wear immediately.

#art #twisted wonderland #twisted wonderland spoilers #...maybe? tenuously? i have no idea #i think lilia and floyd are tied for the most at 18 each #twst loves the chaotic gremlins #granted card quantity is separate from card rarity/significance/whatever #i remember all of us losing our minds when vargas camp 2 came out and trey FINALLY got an event ssr after a million years #anyway i am looking forward to the upcoming magift cards and all don't get me wrong #but i am VERY VERY excited to see what the gargoyle club wear looks like #i NEED to 1) know what malleus thinks gargoyle fashion is and 2) see him in it #jade is also in a weird club by himself but at least that. y'know. has a gear theme and everything. #tangentially i do sometimes think about the fact that malleus and jade are both in single-member clubs #despite how in...i think lilia's robes story the music club was in danger of disbanding because they only had three members #although i do genuinely believe that crowley is too scared of both jade and malleus to tell them they can't have their clubs #so y'know. it tracks.

#this was so funny lmao #my art #hermitcraft #goodtimeswithscar #pearlescentmoon #all the hermits send out out weekly newsletters via pesky bird mail #the information contained within varies wildly in both relevance and factual correctness from hermit to hermit #doc will put ‘got a new pet’ and neglect to mention that It Is The Ender Dragon #whereas grian will regularly write up multiple pages explaining the details of his base progress #and sign off with maybe one sentence about how the hole he accidentally ripped in the fabric of reality ‘seems fine’ #scar has an obits segment that’s just all his own deaths #that single segment is frequently longer than doc’s entire newsletter

"you're flawless!" "you're perfect!" or!!!!!! maybe you're a little flawed. maybe you've fucked up. maybe you're a human with scars and faults. a human who's wronged and who's been wronged. maybe you've messed up. but... maybe you're a human that deserves love and happiness and good things in life. a human that deserves to heal and to be loved because you're worth something just for being alive.

#reminders #gentle reminders #healing #positivity #mental health #self care #self love #self help #self healing #self improvement #encouragement #quotes #inspiration #inspirational quotes #mine #maybe humans love each other because we all know what the void of it feels like #maybe we all live for each other maybe we're all connected with the thread of a single emotion and experience #and maybe that thread is the strongest most permanent eternal connector of all things on earth idk idk #sorry for the word vomit caused by a wave of vivid and inexplicable human emotion. it WILL happen again

For Cody Day 2/2/24

#chiligerart #cody day 2224 #cody day #coday #commander cody #star wars #the clone wars #sw tcw #star wars fanart #there are 18 Cody’s in this! Realized too late I wanted 24 but I was already behind #this is to date the longest illustration I’ve ever worked on #estimated time with all the files is maybe 25-30 hours #I wish I had started working on this sooner but the art bug kept evading me this last month #and then I had a big exam to study for orz #but enough of that #I enjoyed drawing every single one of these Cody’s #centaur Cody was a bit intimidating but he worked out #dragon merman and nautolan Cody are probably my faves of the bunch #i even played around with some of their scars and sunbursts #vaquero and elf Cody’s took the longest to line and color out of all of them surprisingly #and of course: I had to include 2224 (purge trooper Cody) #‘where do we go now?’ by lil nas x was definitely this piece’s theme

there is nothing funnier to me than the critical role cast being invited on the WIRED channel, which has over ten million subscribers, and one of the questions being “are sam riegel and liam o’brien dating?”

#AND SAMS ANSWER WAS LITERALLY ‘MAYBE IF WE WERE BOTH SINGLE’ #SIR????? #YOU ARE DOING NOTHING TO CONVINCE US OTHERWISE #Sam riegel #liam O’Brien #critical role #1k

Okay we have considered the concept of Apollo getting a CHB bead once he becomes a god again but what if it doesn't stop there. What if year after year the campers keep giving him beads and he keeps adding them to his necklace until there comes a point where he looks like this

#maybe they give it to him as some form of offering? #and he wears them all. every single one of them #so whenever he steps into a room there's a *cling cling cling* from the beads hitting each other announcing his presence #like a cat with a bell #trials of apollo #toa #apollo #lester papadopoulos #pjo #percy jackson #lonely thoughts #chiron: don't you think that's too much #apollo with 50 years worth of beads on his arms and neck: 🧍🏻‍♀️

valentine, you're a horse ❤️

#my little pony #mlp g3 #wish-I-may #wish-I-might #ok so. I'm gonna ramble for a sec #normally when I post on valentine's day I complain in the tags about being single. but I won't this year! #I've recently realized I'm definitely somewhere on the aromantic spectrum. and that I'm perfectly content without a partner #in the past I've described myself as 'emotionally unavailable' or having 'commitment issues' but neither of those things were ever true #I'm a very loving and loyal person! #I've always been extremely affectionate with friends and family but unable to have the same level of love for potential partners #unsure if I'm just demisexual/demiromantic or actually aroace but I'm definitely not the default settings type of gay lol #I'm a big fan of romance and sex in fiction! but irl? 😅😬 idk about that fam! idk! #hypothetically I would like to have a gf one day and maybe fall in love but now I understand why that may not happen #or atleast is gonna take a while. and that's fine :) #tldr; if your top song on spotify last year was Cupid by Fifty Fifty it's time to do some soul searching lol #happy valentine's day!! 💕

Hey, you know that character you like? Yeah, the mean woman with a complex story? Well we put them in fandom and they're always talking about brutally killing her. Uh huh, they're saying it's funny because she's mean and her fictional choices make people uncomfortable. No, not just in forums- they joke about violently beating her under everything. I'm sorry dude, you'll be seeing people explicitly describe her death under every post and piece of art.

#minthara #every single day man #yeah it's a game and fictional but maybe don't jump into every single conversation about her with a AHAHAHA I BEAT HER THEN KILL HER #?????? i'm just trying to chill over here and nobody asked you. #baldur's gate 3 #baldurs gate 3 #bg3
