THE X-FILES (1993-2018)

SEASON THREE — Don’t you see, Mulder? You’re doing their work for them. You’re chasing aliens that aren’t there, helping them to create a story to cover the shameful truth. And what they can’t cover, they apologize for. Apology has become policy.

#my favourite season <333 #(ask me again after I watch s4 jsfkbfjs it's always between those 2 for me :')) #txf #the x files #tv #txf3 #txfedit #tvedit #scifiedit #horroredit #90sedit #thexfilesnet #.gif #*txfrewatch #this was soooo difficult I had like 40 gifs made and couldn't decide omg #because this season (even more than most others) has a very interesting mix of serious and comedic episodes #the myth arc is less trauma heavy than other seasons but still carries a lot of drama and darkness with melissa's death for example #and then the introduction of the black oil and scully meeting the other abductees and all that #but opposite this we have THE funniest and most brilliantly silly episodes (clyde bruckman. war of the c. jose chung's. quagmire etc.) #while there are ALSO some darker motw like grotesque and oubliette and pusher (to only name a few) #so idk. this set is a bit all over the place and doesn't totally do the season justice but it is what is is :') #*saul queued

Just the hands and chest for the people who follow me and leave fantastically unhinged tags on things.

#you're lovely thank you #also man but the like footwork I did for this was just silly #so whale oil yeah sure but upon research I'm like okay but specifically sperm whale oil is probably smarter #less smelly and already used in cosmetics #and then I go okay so what's the viscosity of sperm oil #i am not laughing like a school child at all what're you talking about #apparently it's similar to melted coconut oil and I'm like okay #let's melt some coconut oil and see how it drips #and I recognize that's a higher commitment to accuracy than the show itself takes but you know what #that's who I am as a person #anyway thank you for being here #this is probably because I watched disney VHSs as a child and sometimes they had behind the scenes stuff on animation #and I only started trying to animate in october but I have this permanent memory of disney animators talking about filming milk dripping #to get the movement of raindrops falling into a puddle in bambi correct

some doctor who cyanotypes I made for my photography class that I just realized I never shared

#I don't actually know if anyone else will find these as cool as I did #but my tablemate and my teacher thought these turned out super good looking #so I wondered maybe if I showed them to people who actually watch doctor who that y'all might like them as well #I mean I know they're dead messy but it was soo fun to do #if you've got the chance to make a cyanotype you totally should. fantastic medium #btw the first is titled “the doctor(s)” if ur curious lol #I'll be honest I'm not the biggest fan of the second one but it certainly got me some compliments so #I'm thinking it's an “I made this therefor I do not like it” and less of an “it's trash” issue #is this art? does this count as art? #I won't tag the fanart tag ig since idk but I'll use my own since I still technically made these with my own two hands #twelfth doctor #clara oswald #doctor who #my art: oil paint pawsteps 🐾 #ohh. I also just realized I never shared my clara collage I made for this class either #I'm not going to show that one bc it IS trash but I think it's funny how clara is just my ultimate muse in all of my projects

i will literally never stop thinking about that one glass onion analysis video that said “i wouldn’t say i’d destroy [the mona lisa] to save a stranger’s life, but honestly? it’s kinda fucked up that i wouldn’t. we should value a person’s life, stranger or not, more than a piece of art.” like that changed something in me. bc our society DOES value art. not new art, not artists, sure, but it values the results. they put the results at a higher value than the artist themself, and if they think the results is worthless? they’ll still value the artist less than the result.

#thinkin abt my one friend who said she’d rather die than not complete her art #and another who said he’d kill himself for talent #and another who said the mona lisa was da vinci’s legacy and if it’s gone he’s gone #like what are y’all on abt? what value must u put on art to value urself as less than? how little do u value urself to put ur art as more? #i want so badly to be able to say i’d burn the mona lisa to save a stranger but idk if i would #and like this guy said: it’s fucked up #what we make doesn’t determine our worth. what we can or can’t do doesn’t determine our worth. how much talent we have doesn’t determine our #worth. and it shouldn’t. #idk. it just feels so twisted. and it’s not even abt what art they can make in the future. #it’s abt how we and the ppl around us are alive and that’s our most valuable gift #not some oil on a canvas #glass onion #glass onion a knives out mystery #art #mona lisa

It feels soooo silly to be like ‘holy shit, did you know oil & gas companies are evil?’ like ‘wooow omg did you know water is weT?’

But I was at a talk yesterday about fracking & they’re just, SO evil. It’s insane how evil they are?

First off, they are deliberately targeting traumatised communities. The activists I was listening to were from Northern Ireland, where approx 45% of adults have PTSD. The oil and gas companies were targeting NI because 1. the communities are so divided by the Troubles that they can’t always put prejudice aside to fight a big complicated fight, 2. similarly the political structures in NI exist on a sliding scale between ‘weak’ and ‘nonfunctional’, due to all the trauma and violence and division & they can’t effectively like, pass laws preventing extraction.

BUT if you do manage to develop laws preventing extraction, you’re still not safe ....because the oil and gas companies just change their terms! Say you outlaw fracking, right - they come back in two years time saying ‘ok, this thing we want to do now is the exact same industrial process, EXCEPT we are using a SLIGHTLY different machine so we aren’t calling it ‘fracking’ anymore. Now it’s called [dumb new acronym], and its totally legal!’

Oil and Gas companies lied consistently about the health impact of drilling/fracking/extraction on local communities, while the medical & scientific community spent decades building up irrefutable evidence that living near oil, gas, or coal extraction sites increases asthma, autoimmune diseases, infertility, cancer risk, etc.

Then what do the oil and gas companies do when they can’t lie anymore??? they just IGNORE IT. One activist (who was also a doctor) had a meeting with senior civil servants asking them to justify giving extraction licenses, given the health implications. And the senior civil servants said WAIT. WHAT HEALTH IMPACTS? WE’VE BEEN IN TALKS WITH THIS COMPANY FOR 3 YEARS NO ONE MENTIONED ANY HEALTH IMPACTS?

If you manage to create the community power & political will to prevent them from extracting oil and gas – they sue you for lost earnings! Millions & billions of pounds, euros, etc. Because there’s some international energy agreement that means they could have expected to earn money drilling somewhere, and you subvert that expectation, they can SUE YOU for what they ARGUE they MIGHT HAVE earned from drilling down there.

So now, when people create geothermal energy infrastructure, that involves drilling down into rock. If an oil or gas company gets their hands on that rock sample and finds there might be oil or gas down there, they can turn up out of NOWHERE and say ‘hey, we want to drill under this city centre because we saw there’s probably oil down there’ & the city are like ‘wtf? No?’ to which, oil and gas companies can say ‘yes. I expected you to say that. We’re now suing you for €€€€€€€€€€€€€€€!’

evil! evil! evil! evil!

#if u need any more proof oil and gas companies are evil #try researching any of this on wikipedia #anything vaguely antifracking is a half sentence clause like #while there are concerns about the health impacts; the benefits of having to transport gas over less distance makes fracking an advantage ! #me fein

I've had enough of vanilla and rain and smoke and whatever the FUCK sandalwood is. Here are some uncommonly used scents I've encountered and enjoyed in this life

Fresh clean laundry

Leather

Wood

Paper (old or new)

Sugarcane

Honey

Ginger

Straw

Rosin

Cocoa

Dough

Oats

Herbs (maybe not just mint bc her back is TIRED with how much she carries in here)

Any of the holy hard spices. Not just cinnamon‐ but also anise, clove, nutmeg, AND the savory queens like paprika and cardamom

Root vegetables (Listen. Listen. They're all good and unique and tasty and you need to hear me out on this)

Also since things like candles, incense, soaps, candies and teas can come in many different flavors/scents but will always have some underlying scent from their base material attached to them, they make for good layered/complex scents

This is more of a pet peeve than anything but an easy way to make up cooler scents is to just. Be specific. Especially if your starting idea is super broad. "she smelled like trees" pick a tree "they smelled like bread/pastries" pick one "he smelled like flowers" I'm telling you the are so many unique— and maybe even symbolic if that's your plan— flowers at your disposal rn

NOTHING wrong with these scent choices they're all good and I love them dearly but. I can only read about so many flower boys before I go a little crazy. The world has too many amazing scents for us to be running the one okay scent of general flowers into the ground

#i didn't add the less pleasant ones like plastic (sometimes) and gas and oil and chemicals #or harsher savory ones like cheese and curry powder and meat #but if I'm being honest. someone'd prolly smells like that honestly..... 7 billion of us and all #so sorry timmy ended up smelling like ranch. can't b helped 😞 #omegaverse #alpha beta omega #a/b/o #omegaverse scents #omegaverse headcanons #pine.txt #pine.omegaverse

trying to eat healthy is such a nightmare bc literally no one can agree on fucking ANYTHING when it comes to nutrition. even doctors disagree with each other constantly. are seed oils literally causing the downfall of western civilization or are they a healthier alternative to saturated fats? are eggs a superfood or a heart attack in a shell? are beans a good source of protein or will the dreaded ~antinutrients~ kill me? how about meat? dairy? grains? starches? pufas vegan keto carnivore paleo high carb low carb no sugar glycemic index starches triglycerides trans fats omega 6 omega 3 plant based animal based CICO intermittent fasting mediterranean dietaaaaAAUGH!! ENOUGH!!!!

#im just going with eating less ultraprocessed food & less added sugar bc those are no brainers #but the oil thing is rly annoying me like can i cook with them or not.fuck #LX3 op

whenever someone offers me beauty advice and they're thin my willingness to take said advice drops by like 50%

#like one of my friends was saying i should shower less and how they're able to only wash their hair twice a week (straight hair mind you) #and i was like ok but you realize: being over 200 lbs if i start walking around with greasysmelly hair that's gonna be bad for me don't you #like braver people have done it but if i wanna be seen as like. a person i gotta be cleaner than clean #I can't afford to spend a year waiting for my natural oils to rebalance or whatever unless i wanna take the brunt of other peoples disgust

i need to draw this part of mochi more but she is honestly, from an onlookers perspective, very weird. and the reason for it is that she has a habit of collecting and hoarding old, gross, used, useless, or otherwise unwanted things.

as a witch, anything can be used all spell ingredients because objects in the world inherently have properties that can be used for spells (think botw where its like "old snail shell can boost speed" kind of thing), and often times the properties are stronger AFTER said object has been gently to moderately used. an eraser has good properties for glue spells BUT a used and chewed on eraser has STRONGER properties for glue spells

so when she was a little kid, in school you could catch her on the floor scraping up eraser shavings that a kid brushed off his desk. the teacher tries to empty out the pencil shavings bin and mochi ZOOMS in with a jar to catch all of it before it goes into the trash. a kid sticks their gum under the desk and 10 minutes later mochi is on the floor scraping it off and putting it in a little box. and when they were young it really FREAKED lime out, but over time hes like "Whatever, you do you i guess." (shes trying to be a good little witch-to-be and help her mom collect potion ingredients)

as she grows up she gets better at blending in and and uhh NOT doing that, but occasionally you'll still catch her picking up old chewed on pencils, rusty paper clips, soggy pieces of paper, whatever off the floor

#young lime was an asshole and encouraged it #lime: oh look...a half-empty carton of chunky milk in the dumpster... #mochi 2 seconds later: (fishing it out) #lime: (WHEEZING AND TAKING PHOTOS) #poor mochi #shes the type of gamer who collects every single collectable item no matter if she needs it or not #older lime still encourages it but hes less of an ass #she sees a torn up shoe in a tree outside the school and wants to grab it but doesnt want to call attention to herself #lime just sighs and grabs it out of the branches for her #theres so much spell ingredient shit in the greenhouse where they keep all the magic stuff #most random things ever #in a jar youll see a frost-bitten chicken breast in motor oil #mochi: that needs to marinate more to be useful #lime: ?????????????
