oh lol i forgot to post this robit sketches! because i have one (1) bit and im sure as hell gonna commit to it apparently

#rolling with difficulty #art I made #'shut your up' is a verbatim quote from an ex classmate i just thought it was funny #i dont think it was intentional i think he was just so angry that Words Failed on him #anyway im absolutely not keeping that maxim design. god i fucking hate clothing design *so* much #austin: 'hes a gold plated mechanite dressed in blue and grey robes' me trying to figure out colour placement: 'what FUCK'#i had one (1) good idea and that was 'skeleton shaped robit' and every other part of that design went to hell apparently #bc all the other mechanites we've had were either like... flesh..? shaped?? like that sorta silhouette (basically most of the old crew)#or more mechanical/geometric (vr-la's designs and like.. k-lb? i guess? if that counts)#so. therefore. bone shaped mechanite. also if i was gonna try that concept on anyone it may as well be maxim if you think about it #idk i thought it would be interesting. and also undertale was my first fandom so uh #ANYWAY. MOVING ON FROM THAT THOUGHT.#this started as a 2am intrusive thought of like #'we (artists in the discord) keep joking abt how k-lb would be a nightmare to draw but like.. how hard is it really'#anyway as you can probably expect. famous last words #i mean genuinely mad respect to noir but i think i said to one of my friends when i showed them this sketch #'i mean this in the nicest way possible but you can just tell he was designed for an audio only storytelling format' LMAO #if anyone is unwise enough to attempt this (so basically @ my future self lmao)#do the lineart and colouring for the wires in front of the inner electricity skeleton (???) and the ones behind it on SEPARATE LAYERS #drew the wires all together then the electricity and had to painstakingly go over the electricity with an eraser it was a fucking nightmare

Very strange outfit that is sort of like.. a mix of my current style (pattern mixing, pom poms, fun sandals) combined with how I dressed when I was like 10 years old. The stereotypical skelanimals hoodie vest and the skull t-shirt lol..

#self #kit the cat you will always be famous #all that like 2004 - 2008 emo & scene fashion is kind of like goth fashion in that I largely am not into it really but ALSO I can respect #elements of the aesthetic. Especially pattern mixing. plaid with stripes?? with checker print also?? Very cool. Less with scene stuff since #the patterns were all like #animal prints which was worse hghjbjh.. cheeta print with zebra print with checkers is a little weirder. I think I just don't like animal #prints though. Striped parts of hair are cool though still actually to me unironically like. If it wasn't so associated with sceney stuff #still I would maybe have some stripes lol #Googling skelanimals now most of it is unappealing to me but there are a few things that are cool. there's a jacket that has stripes and #heart print mixed together. Do I just really like pattern mixing?? ghbjhbhj.. that seems like the qualification.#T-shirt? no . boring. I hate it. Will never wear it. Same exact t-shirt in the same exact style except part of it is floral and the other pa #rt is striped and it also has like lace lining or something so it's more detailed looking? wow . perfect. I love it.#Silly skull animal hoodie in plain black? boring. no. never. Same hoodie but now each sleeve is a diferent pattern? Wow.. truly amazing #I can be won over by anything that's gaudy/busy/over complicated. That quote about like ''once you think your outfit is perfect remove one #more accesory'' or whatever about minimalism and not overcomplicating a look except the opposte. Once you think your outfit is perfect add 8 #more items. also they all should be different patterns. hghjbhj #ANYWAY.. I do like some of the concepts of some of the older fashion. Like t-shirt over a long sleeve shirt and they're both different #patterns. and then a skirt that's a different pattern. and some tights or socks that are also assymetrical or some like complimentary #other pattern. Stripes + plaid especially. Famous combination. And the having like 667495789789 little plastic bracelets. No idea what was #up with that since I'm too socially out of touch especially when I was in school (I remember hearing that like some colors #of bracelet mean different things or something) but it was an interesting aesthetic. And the wrist bands #The t-shirt is from walmart from when I think I wasnt even in middle school yet still late elementary school and I remember thinking it was #the coolest thing ever because usually you had to go to hot topic or something to get clothes with skulls on them. And it's so so weird look #ing like. the colors?? are ugly and shouldnt work but actually I still kind of like the aesthetic. green with pink and weird mustardy yellow #and gray??? Maybe I only like it because it has different patterns (skulls + checkers + dots + hearts)#Anyway it's a really funny t-shirt to me. One of those weird items that is captivating for some reason #And the hoodie I actually owned a long time ago too. but I think I got it later. I had one other skelanimals thing which was a jacket and it #was like 5 sizes too big for me which I loved. And I remember being really obsessed with the font they used on their tags and trying to #replicate writing that way. not the newer gothy one. but the old logo font like.. it looks like Curlz MT or something lol

#thinking thoughts that harry might actually be leaving his label and management and the whole three contract deal #wasn't a rumour at all because like what the fuck is actually happening #really fucking sorry but even if harry was straight. or wasn't with louis. he would NOT be dating this woman after everything #like every single person can see just how vile she is and how she's barely keeping up with her own lies #if you really want me to believe that harry is dating this woman who has no shred of self awareness #and has such a twisted view of things. and has been so cruel to so many people on set. and has supported #an actual abuser. and has looked down on one of the most respected actresses in hollywood rn. and has been spinning lies #then i honestly don't know what to tell you #i don't know how much truth there is to the nanny story but there was this quote about how she's fame hungry and how much she cares about #what other people and she's only with harry because of his fame and i think that was the only truth in that article #i don't know what sort of a hellish deal she negotiated with harry/his team but she was really fucking clever with it because what the fuck #convinced she doesn't have a team or publicist or whatever and that she's been pulling strings all along. anyways for fuck's sake #free harry from this mess and do you know what let him disappear for some time while she digs her own grave for her career #like you guys do see that she's been in the industry for over 20 years and has had so many career changes #acting/producing/directing etc and the thing that's gotten her the most fame is this pr stunt. is her bearding. says a lot about her #priorities and who she is as a person and if after all this you still think that harry is actually with her or that he's not #miserable with her. then boy do i have news for you. i don't claim to know him or whatever but like. any decent human would see through #her facade and back the fuck away. like any self respecting person would've seen her world of lies and said nope. i care about my life and #career goodbye. so yeah anyways hope this ends soon and hope she vanishes because it's clear that her career in hollywood is done for

i was going to post about this but then forgot but anyway i feel like it really is the case that the reason neil and chris have been still going for over 40 years and haven't had a major falling out or break is because of the nature of how much they respect each other both on a personal level and also a working partnership level

#i think the moment it clicked for me as to why theyve been together for so long is how tom watkins tried to tell neil to go solo #because he was convinced chris didnt do or contribute anything because he thought chris was just neil's bf #which is like a Whole other thing #but neil was very firm on not going solo and ditching chris and standing up for him and pointing out all of the major stuff chris does #and that neil is very self-aware that he probably couldnt be successful on his own and that chris is an integral part of the group #that really comes across with how much he will flat out say something was chris' idea even when chris is embarrassed by it #the other thing is neither of them have ever had an ego. the only circumstances is maybe when chris would get upset not being filmed #w/ the tonight show debacle that was v clearly he was in the right to be upset they wouldnt film him as if he wasnt the other member #and then that stuart price quote where he talked about how he's seen them get into arguments and disagreements over stuff #but they work through it in a way that they clearly respect the other's opinion and dont take it personally #not to mention the multiple rough personal events theyve gone through throughout their career #looping back to the ego thing the other thing is they recognize that their knowledge complements the other #like neil having never considered a bassline before meeting chris and realizing how important it was #they both bring something to the table that the other can't or can't do well #ig long story short theyve succeeded in having a long career because of the level of mutual respect in their relationship #and that they know how to communicate and work through conflicts when they happen #and at the end of the day making music together is something they enjoy and get pleasure from whether they release the music or not #they even kind of mention it in the reel stories ep with neil making sure chris speaks his opinion in interviews #i really like that he's mindful of that and is conscious of not dominating the conversation and letting chris speak #its just nice to see idk psb wouldnt fully work if they didnt have such a strong relationship #also last i promise it helps that neither of them have kids or been married so no hiatuses because of family and stuff #i mean theyve both been in relationships and given idk too much detail it seems like they made it work out #i guess i mean with neil and his 90s relationships i should say #yeah ok thats my last point hamsndndns sorry thanks if u made it this far i have a lot of thoughts

“Ever since Charlie’s gone it’s different, of course. He’s missing, he’s number four. He’s up there. Of course he’s missed, incredibly. But thanks to Charlie Watts, we have Steve Jordan, who was Charlie’s recommendation for if anything should happen…So it was a kind of natural progression. It would have been a lot harder without Charlie’s blessing on that. But at the same time, it’s a hard thing, you know?”

Keith Richards (Hackney Diamonds Press Conference, September 2023)

#I really don’t love how they so often end up turning this question into something about Steve #it feels very forced and like an attempt at self-justification #at the same time #I can’t imagine how much pain he (and mick and ronnie) are in loosing Charlie #I don’t know #this whole thing has just been depressing in every possible way #and I can’t say I’ve come out of it with more respect for them #the rolling stones #charlie watts #keith richards #old married band #quote

Throughout my life I've had a lot of opinions on the whole "you can't love someone until you love yourself" thing and now that I'm in love with some I know for certain that it's absolute bullshit

#i think the more nuanced meaning of that idea is loving and respecting yourself helps to ensure your love is healthy and not destructive #but holy shit the quote as is is so cruel and objectively wrong #loving and being loved has helped me so much in my journey of self love and self acceptance #my self esteem is not dependent on my partner but god do they help improve it #i feel so loved fully and completely and that's something so incredible that i find it difficult to accurately articulate it #the parts of me that i feel shame and embarrassed over are loved and appreciated by a person so wonderful #and that it forces me to reframe them in my own mind #i think thaf quote had good intentions i really do but god it fucked me up more than I realized #*that #loving my girlfriend and being loved by her has been healing in so many ways that i dont think id ever be able to accomplish on my own #and that's okay #we're social animals we're supposed to have relationships and those relationships are supposed to help and improve us #no matter what happens between us i will always appreciate the ways loving and being loved by them has changed me #anyway i saw someone talking about this the other day and I couldn't stop thinking about it #and I'm emotional and sentimental so im gonna get mushy about it lol #personal

okay so

#the guy texted me and said he didn’t feel comfortable dating because I’m still quote building my career unquote #I don’t understand because 1) there was no new information presented and 2) I’m not sure why that really matters #but I just said okay!#I didn’t feel the need to explain myself #or ask him what he meant #I just said okay and then he may have felt bad so he sent me a nice thing about how I’m very cute and fun and he knows I’ll do well #and I was just like I think so too 😁 take care!!#I think I’ve reached a new level of self assurance and I really like that #It feels good #so my mom asked me about him and I told her what happened #and she was like you know what I didn’t even like him that much #lmao #she’s always Sayin stuff to make me feel better #but I do genuinely feel good!#I don’t miss him and I also don’t have any hard feelings #but I did notice that even in this case where I felt very calm I still was brushing red flags about him under the rug #and I hope I stop doing that soon #I’m sorry this is vulgar but he did try to tell me twice that apparently he’s very well endowed #which felt really out of character because he was super polite and respectful in all other instances #constantly caught between trying to see the good in people but also being discerning #so that’s what happened #I’m headed out for thanksgiving! it’s going to be a crazy week #remember #literally typing this at the airport

BLOODHOUNDS

ft Y.T and Tripwire

[their ‘duo name’ is Bloodhounds from now on btw… if you even care..]

alternative title ver- it would’ve taken away the effect of the *COUGH* easter egg

notes n what not coming soon

The sketch and the flowers used :3

The composition originally was going to be a lot different (had two in mind) where the Red King’s involvement would’ve been more prominent. Went with this one simply cuz it was just more fun to experiment, where the negative space is made front and centre focus :]

Whennnn picking out the plants ddint think for a second about symbolism- and going off of just ANY flower for flower language would have been too big of a selection pool… So in respects to SL environmental setting - native Australian plants it was.

-The golden wattle trees by its abundance and have benefited Aboriginal and Torres Straight Islanders for thousands of years to create various markers and tools. The plant survives harsh droughts, and its seeds have a coating strong enough that can be salvageable beyond bushfires.

-as a signifier of Spring and new beginnings hence rebirth, the golden wattle to me was also very thematically fitting for a season like Secret Life :]

-I never looked into what Illawarra flame trees (the flowers of the coat my SL!Bdubs design is wearing) before until today.. and I quote “Regains confidence and self-approval, able to make commitments with the strength of self-reliance. Clarity in life and ability to adapt to all situations. Secure enough to express and communicate true feelings. To be beautiful and strong ” [SOURCE: Australian Bushflowers] which…. Ok damn. There’s also alcohol in it.

-Eucalyptus trees in Indigenous Australian culture represent the division between the underworld, the Earth and heaven.

The selection of plants while don’t represent Bloodhounds together - but more of what Martyn and Bdubs are individually, they’re interesting in the things they have in common what they represent. And the differences they go about this loyalty throughout the seasons and why they devote - especially in LimL and SL.. Fascinating stuff.

#stufffsart #secret life spoilers #inthelittlewood #itlw #itlwart #bdoubleo100 #bdoubleo #Bdubs #secret life #secret life smp #life series smp #trafficblr #mcytblr #i forgot… martyn doesn’t wear glasses.. I’m dorry #stufff rambles #(for the word dump below)#apologies if I get certain things wrong >< flower language isn’t my expertise

A critique I've heard of season two is that we’ve lost a lot of our symbolic objects, archetypes, and motifs. Season one gave us the lighthouse, the kraken, the red silk and the unicorn, the seagull, the auxiliary closet, Gnossienne no. 5, Pinocchio…

And then I think back to Samba sharing a quote from writer Alex Sherman during the ECCC panel:

“Season one is Stede going from a puppet to a real boy, and season two is Stede becomes a man.”

And that’s it, isn’t it? The transformation from object to subject, from something that has things done to it versus someone with agency. We see that transformation throughout season two. Almost every significant object is discarded, every symbol realized in flesh.

The process starts at the end of season one with the throwing away of all of Stede’s things. So much has been written about Stede’s potential response to that act, and so many folks (myself included) held on to the idea that perhaps Ed kept a little bit, maybe the auxiliary closet. Stede literally no longer cares about those things. He originally brought all the things he loved with him to sea because he didn’t have significant personal relationships. That’s why we hear Gnossienne no. 5 as he goes through the empty cabin pulling out all of the knives. The discordant love motif shows how his priorities have changed, how his love has transformed.

The red silk is gone as well, but instead we have Stede, real and in the flesh wearing the exact same color, clutched in Ed’s hand in the moonlight.

The kraken, a giant monster capable of rending a ship in two? Ed becomes that, literally, disassembling the Revenge to sail her into a storm and destroy her.

The lighthouse? A warning, Ned Low in his silver suit, a beacon in the dark warning Stede of what he will become if he continues on his course.

The unicorn, the destroyed masthead, literally becomes Izzy, a man taken apart and rebuilt piece by piece out of the parts of Stede Bonnet to become a beloved and respected member of the crew, and perhaps one of the strongest examples of self-actualization so far.

The attempts at reversing the process are demonstrated to be ineffective. The catalyst is when Buttons becomes a seagull, which shows Ed that the process of change is possible—that someone can become something or someone else. And he tries, he throws away his leathers, dons Button’s old jacket, tries to become an archetype. Stede tries to become a “real pirate”, despite the warning from Low. Even in Ed’s vision of Stede as a merman, Stede is being reduced to the role of symbol—a mythical being rather than a very real, very flawed man. They are both still trying to be the object when they need to be the subject. They need to take action, to realize themselves. And it’s a gruesome process. Jim’s version of Pinocchio is about the horrific transmogrification from wood into flesh and the horrors that need to be faced in order to make that transition.

We, the audience, are experiencing discomfort in this process. We are being held right up against the lighthouse lamp, and it burns. This is the emotional equivalent of body horror. It feels like all of our beloved belongings are being thrown overboard, but I promise they aren’t.

They are becoming.
