#seen this video too many times

[uptoolateart]

You know how they say opposites attract? I think it’s because we’re drawn to character traits we secretly wish we could express ourselves but don’t dare to. So, we’re attracted to our complements.

I was thinking this the other day, about Adrien and Marinette, e.g. she wishes she could be as open about her feelings as he is, while he wishes he had her planning and keenness of thought, etc.

I then got this song in my head and - how perfect is it that in the video, he’s a cartoon cat!?

The temptation to vague about something in the milgram-confessions blog because its something thats bothered me for Actual Years about certain fandoms vs letting it go because when it is brought up its actually done somewhat tastefully and reasonably which makes me happy and this anon probably didnt mean it in the incredibly bad faith way I keep on seeing it be repeated so really Im getting upset over nothing.

#the answer is: ramble a bit in the tags just to get it out of my system #for some elaboration: Im asian! I have a knee jerk reaction when people go 'the westerners are projecting their values onto the east again' #because 9/10 of the times someone does that they're an American who wants to justify their weird racism/homophobia #by using the idea that asian countries (especially Japan) are backwards and/or ignorant but disguising it as 'being mindful of their cultur #and also then homogenizing them and pretending their all a monolith to be assholes to people! #and/or completely dismiss any possible criticism or interpretation for a series as a cultural values thing #this one fucks me up especially because usually there IS Merit in those interpretations/criticisms #but a concerning amount of people then go 'oh your just pushing your cultural values onto them' as a smokescreen to be a bunch of assholes #and/or discredit their ideas because Clearly All (insert x group here) think EXACTLY THE SAME and BELIEVE FULLY in whatever cultural #idea their using to justify this behavior #Ive Seen actual good discussion on differences in culture! #especially in another fandom of mine #but the worse option has happened so much that when I hear someone say those words alarm bells start ringing #its bad faith! I know its bad faith! But Ive engaged the worse option in good faith and came out wanting to punch someone A Lot More #Ive seen actually good faith discussions of cultural difference in this fandom sometimes! Its really nice but It scares me #cause im just Waiting for Someone to come in and ruin it #can you guys tell ive seen too many bad anime video essays? Ive seen too many bad anime video essays.

really tempted to rewatch both simm and hidden agenda and write up a defense of dunk's acting

#it makes me kinda sad when people bash him :( #does he nail every single moment?? no ofc not #but he's definitely not as bad as i've seen some people say #there are also many things he does beautifully. that have me go yessss!! this is what it's all about!!!! #maybe i should just start a youtube channel #how do i talk about acting in english tho #i'm missing essential words such as spielrichtung‚ anspielen‚ das miteinander‚ sich einlassen auf‚ aufeinander eingehen‚ abnehmen‚ etc #(not my uni profs in my head telling me to go find some parallel texts to solve that vocabulary issue but the thing is!! i'm too lazy kjdfk #having an education in something is a blessing and a curse sigh #airenyah plappert #dunk natachai #adrm #and so what if he doesn't nail everything!! so what if there's room for improvement!! #newsflash: even fandom favorites have their moments that aren't the best of their acting #oh baby i have opinions about [redacted] in [redacted] that you could never even imagine #and the show in question is even one of the only 3 dramas that i have rated a 10/10 on mydramalist #once again i'm thinking about that time the other week where i showed my mom some concert performances #and mentioned how some people were saying dunk is a bad actor #and halfway through the video she went #''also wenn ich mir das so anschau‚ is er hundertmal ein besserer schauspieler als der‚ der so aufgehypet wird'' #i refuse to say in public who she's referring to with ''der der so aufgehypet wird'' but trust me it's a beloved fandom favorite 🤭🤭🤭 #also the people saying this clearly never watched that one mv they starred in a while back #my boy dunk natachai fucking carried that whole story line

I love going through lets players' kingdom hearts playlists and right after recoded seeing a twewy playlist immediately followed by ddd. Like, yep. Bet I can guess what your audience told you to do before starting ddd.

#its almost every single time and its somehow hilarious to me #i think i everything i say on this blog anymore is related to watching youtubers/streamers play the series #i mean. i guess at this point what else is left at this point? #im kinda genuinely addicted to seeing newcomers reactions to everything by now #like. i sure as hell can never experience the series for the first time again for myself #so might as well live vicariously through a random stranger playing video games on youtube! #i think i have every cutscene in the series memorized now. ive seen way too many lets plays

I'm pretty sure at this point the person that has appeared the most in my dreams/nightmares (apart from people I actually know/used to know in real life) is Jarvis Johnson. it happens a lot, he'll just randomly show up all the time. like last night he was in a (particularly gruesome and unpleasant) nightmare that I had. didn't make any sense but it was nice to get a break for a second :)

#I like when my brain does this #just. oh yeah this is pretty awful. here have A Guy You Like #it does help a little #and it does kinda make sense that he would show up a lot. I find him very calming #there's also been lots of dreams where I was friends with him. and many where I hug him. it's very weird because besides him this really #doesn't happen a lot with anyone else lol #like I've had maybe three dreams that (characters played by) John Larroquette showed up in. and I spend a stupid amount of time thinking #about him lol #anyway I like Jarvis he's great and I'm glad my brain seems to like him too haha #also. that nightmare last night was one of the more brutal ones (like. dozens of young people/teenagers getting killed by a teacher that I #haven't seen in 15 years and who wasn't even that bad. it was just really rough. so yeah getting like a tiny moment of aww hey what's he #doing here that makes no sense! is always nice :') and it's good because then I tend you remember that part a bit more than the rest.) #*to #unfortunately this makes watching his videos (especially sad boyz) a little weird sometimes. like. hey that's my friend. wait no he's not. #I've just dreamed that over a dozen times it's not actually real (unfortunately) #personal

imo there is a very big difference between "this author/artist/etc. promotes their work on their socials" and "this author/artist/etc. is expected to be an influencer".

they are both present on social media but influencer behavior is imo very specific. When i think about this behavior i think about the curation of a big audience prior to and as a requirement to getting a job within an industry, having to post a specific amount of social media/influencer content per contract agreement, using social media as a "brand", always having to be engaged with one's audience, your physical appearance as a brand/aspect of your social media influence, etc. as influencer behavior. Requiring the curation and maintenance of this type of social media engagement is exhausting, and often prohibitive to creatives continuing to make their art.

we talk about not wanting to require authors/artists/other creatives be influencers but you also have to let people, especially people in the indie spheres promote their work without dragging their names through the mud for doing so. most, if not all of them, are not capitalists, shills, or influencers. Many of these are people are just trying to tell you about their art and hoping you'll engage with it/perhaps buy it and that is not a bad thing. it's just as upsetting to them that social media in the current day almost requires one to be constantly engaged and influencing to have their voice heard in the sea of millions.

like as a creative i don't mind existing on social media, i'm on it right now. i just want to be able to use social media as a person and not be required to be constantly engaged to be successful. in the same vein i don't think one should be criticized for promoting their art. I think both these things can live outside the sphere of being an influencer and i don't think that's too much to ask.

#bookblr #writeblr #artists on tumblr #honestly part of the reason i stopped posting art especially on say instagram #was the like....algorithmic need to post the same thing over and over #and lack of engagement of said art when it was not fanart #it just sucked enjoyment out of it honestly #and that's not the point for me #but i also can't fault my friends who make a portion of their living saying 'i'm open for commissions!" #i dont' think that's being like....capitalist influencer shill etc. #bc they are a person trying to make money independently and under charging for their work in hopes people will purchase #too many websites make it difficult to find work that is by smaller creatives bc algorithms do tend to favor more popular works #is it too much to ask that i not have to post online on a certain time and a certain number of posts per week AND reels to get work seen?? #i dont think it is #i hate u short form videos as a requirement for engagement i hate you

i luv her

Went to Target during a trip to the next state over with Mom so we could have a fun day out, and I found DC Comics Manga, and this Joker one is so tempting to grab an ebook of

This sounds like a typical fanfiction plot idea and I'm all for it

Also, found some cute Lego polybags, which is a nice bit to add to my Lego collection I'm rebuilding, as I'm mostly grabbing small bags and bricks from thrifting

A cute farmer with a scarecrow and a bunny, and a "birthday train" micro build.

Also, I decided to finally try a minifigure blind box, since my Lego are gonna need some people for them, and golly, they've changed since I was a kid

I got an Olympic runner guy with running blades prosthetics and a Harpy with articulated wings! I found out that they're making minifigs now that includes some wild fantasy elements and disability representation. I really want to find the dog groomer one with the Afghan hound and has a cochlear implant, the dog is cute and since hard-of-hearing runs in my family, that has a bit of a personal sentimental concept there...

Anyway, my Valentine's day was pretty cool. Nothing but good luck, people were very polite and friendly, and absolutely nothing went wrong this year. 🥹

#We also went to a Mongolian buffet and it was great #And I found an epic Lego Dots set marked down to an irresistible and reasonable price #They have these wonderful color tiles that are like a neon 90s aesthetic and the tiles will smooth out the builds nicely #I got some second hand bricks and tiles and have been testing out ideas that includes tactical fidgeting functions #I haven't built with Legos since 2011 so this will be a great time #I used to have a massive box of pieces my brothers gave me over the years but they had to be donated because they couldn't fit in the van #I'm gonna just keep everything in a bucket now #To save space #But I mostly want bricks and tiles and snot bricks and technics #Snot bricks just means studs not on top like an acronym #It's the funny bricks with connections on the sides #I've been watching so many cool lego deep dive videos and the new techniques and possibilities I've seen makes me want to try new ideas #I've always been a builder at heart I just love making stuff and I miss my old lego because I used to build visuals for my art as a kid #Lego ain't just for kids anymore and I love it #I'm obsessed with the Dots right now too #So cute

GOD WHAT A FUCKING SEQUENCE!!! CHEF'S KISS MWAH MWAH MWAH #and then just the lovely little moments of fanservice. obvious stuff like kaz wavedashing or he & jin doing the namco logo thing 1 last tim #but then obscure stuff like jins t3 df1 glitch & kazuyas weirdo t4 re-stun combos?? like how many ppl are even gonna know about that shit?? #they hella did not have to do that but they did & it makes me so so so happy #so yea the t8 story is like 80% a fun entertaining little romp & 20% the hypest shit i've ever ever ever seen #and also reina is the best new character namco have made for tekken since steve in t4 #it's funny cause in the whole leadup to t8 i was having a little trouble figuring out who i was gonna main #cause in t7 i spent most of my time bouncing around basically the whole cast before finally settling on julia near the end #obv no julia in t8 so i had to pick someone else & no one in t8 was really jumping out at me #lots of super cool characters that i'd already played quite a lot of but not really anyone that's like ok yea that's my fucking guy #lots of sick af potential secondaries but no main basically #then they released the reina trailer & i was like ok yea that's my fucking guy #sick design sick stage sick AS FUCK music & a bunch of mishima staples to go along with it??? #she's got an electric? hellsweep? wavedash? flash punch combo? stonehead? #plus some heihachi specific staples? demon breath? heaven's gate? iron hand? fucking HUNTING HAWK??? then yea that's MY FUCKING GUY #so yea reina fucking rules & i just wanna play her against real ppl please for the love of fuck #OH ONE MORE THING THEY DID ANOTHER GREAT JOB WITH THE MUSIC.

The fact that ppl are referring to their dumb impulses as intrusive thoughts while I'm sitting here getting hit out of nowhere with the thought that "hey if I took metformin without any food I could maybe kill myself" is.....interesting

#tw suicidal thoughts #tw suicide #for the record i am NOT suicidal!!!!!! the thoughts just pop in my brain randomly at times #my intrusive thoughts are quite mild but even so it's like. hhhh????? #i absolutely DO NOT want to die and im very cautious abt my meds of course #idk it's 1am and this probably makes no sense but. i am taking the phrase 'intrusive thoughts' and putting it on the shelf #until ppl learn what it actually means. man. #i've seen a few too many funny cat videos with captions like 'he let his intrusive thoughts win' recently
