#zeno's art #i'm not sure if i should tag the show itself as i'm not a fan but i guess its “fan”art so i will #hazbin hotel #charlie hazbin hotel #vivziepop #i was bored and wanted to draw something #my main goal here was to create a design that looked distinct and could (potentially) be moderately easy to animate #of course based on charlie's character i added as many angel images as possible through the hair and bowtie #(i know white on white is a character design sin but i wanted to show the angel wing detail ;w;) #also to express the personality and juxtaposition of a sweet devil her horns are supposed to curve into a heart shape #of course the garterbelts are upside-down/st peters crosses because of her satanic themes #i also tried to go harder into the goat theme but its still subtle i think #i actually think the goat theme is really interesting because of the story of the sheep and the goats in the bible #but i cant remember if it was actually something intended in her original design #i'm not going to draw anyone else so dont even anticipate that #this was basically a cooldown? ok i think i'm rambling now #goodbye #ok edit to say it clearly: i am not a fan of vivziepop or her work. i just wanted to redesign charlie as a cooldown/exercise for fun #because i used to be a fan of the character before i wised up about what vivzie had and has done #and before i matured and noticed the cracks and fundamental flaws in her works #so yea i dont support her at all and this redesign is critical i guess #also the reason why the tag “vivziepop” is there in the first place is so that anyone who has that tag silenced can scroll past #without seeing anything related to her work. in case that clears anything up #its the same reason why i tag “long post” and “food” and the like

It's kind of funny that Kendall and Shiv are both equally delusional about their ability to charm people for business and somehow think they can do it even though they choke almost every single time, whereas it's like the one thing Roman is consistently good at despite being the "least legitimate" option.

I think part of this comes down to the fact that Shiv and Kendall both have very clear ideas of the versions of themselves they're trying to be and the images they're trying to project, and they're trying so hard to be seen that way that they end up coming off as a little desperate and off-putting. Meanwhile Roman "knows" that there's something wrong with him and he's worthless, so he doesn't get sucked into the trap of trying to force people to see his idea of himself and instead molds himself into whatever he thinks the other person wants from him because that's the only way he can compensate for "being him," which works very well in the short term but also means he's the least capable of maintaining any relationship for very long because he has no sense of self.

#this was going to be a joke about kendall consistently failing to charm anyone that isn't stewy (and still for some reason thinking he's #good at it) but then i thought about it too hard and started connecting dots #but it is really interesting on a character level to analyze the different ways the siblings act when they're trying to win someone over #kendall and shiv will try to find common ground but they always end up pushing too hard and overplaying their hands because they're #focussing too much on wanting to get the person to take them seriously or see them the way they want to be seen #and roman will test the waters a bit but not say anything definitive until he get the person talking and can see what it is they want #and then just says whatever it is he thinks they want to hear #which also makes a lot of sense with the abuse dynamics since he was the one most likely to actually get hit so the goal is to just make #sure dad never gets angry at you and tell him whatever you need to to avoid that because the consequences will be worse #anyways its 2 am here you go #succession #kendall roy #shiv roy #roman roy

It’s very kind of people I speak other languages with to assume that my slow comprehension and endless requests for repetition are as a result of us not speaking my first language, when in reality, my auditory processing is just complete shit.

#linguistics #second language problems #I mean it’s definitely harder in my non-native languages to understand what people are saying #but it’s not fucking easy in my L1 either lmao #people are confused because I can see them thinking #‘oh they speak so well so surely they’re very proficient’ #‘and yet they don’t understand what I’m saying?’ #auditory processing disorder #auditory processing issues #adhd #neurodivergent #your local autistic linguist here! #*stares blankly at someone else speaking as I try to make my brain translate their mouth sounds into words* #I’m an English teacher and sometimes my students are like ‘my goal is to watch English shows without subtitles!’ #and I’m like ‘babe *I* can’t even do that and it’s my native language’ XD

In non-boop related life updates, I have fully finished an outline for a book and have actually written 3400 words in a first draft and that is a huge deal for me, because I've never gotten this far with original fiction before.

#i'm actually very proud of myself #my goal is to finish a first draft #i don't really care what happens after that i just don't want to be one of those people that is always talking about writing a book #and never doing it #so yeah #that's what i've been up to so far this year #also i'm trying sock curls tonight for the first time and i'm sure it'll be a disaster but here's to trying new stuff

one aspect that always fascinates me about the witch cult is how much they are used-to-be humans-but-now-not-really-are. they were just people who sometimes were good in the way people are and sometimes were bad in the way people are. and then their lifes had been altered by powers so fundamentally that they just. lost touch with any humanity that they had. how do you comprehend being a hundreds years old? how do you comprehend being able to kill a human as simply as a mosquito? how do you comprehend being beyond time, beyond aging, beyond life and death, beyond your own body, beyond your own memories? it's a horror scenario accepted willingly, horror where instead of running from monster you shake its hand and convince yourself that that's all you ever wanted, because the alternative? the alternative is the existence so miserable you'd rather die than go back. the existence that may ask you to take responsibility for your actions, navigate your own life, change who you are as a person.

they cannot do that. they never could do that. they live for years and years, having powers to do literally anything and yet led by instructions in the book, further and further conservating in the state they were from a start, the moment they took a deal.

doomed from the beginning. never having a chance to escape. never wanting to escape, instead allowing your humanity to slowly seep away as a price for not bearing the weight of that it means to be human. damn.

#re zero #sorry for being barely comprehensible myself i just think about this. a lot. #like the sheer fact that all of them lived either literally or technically (lye) for thousands years #and yet they still hold grudges for stuff that happened lifetimes ago #never progressing never changing despite the fact that their whole life is now technically about Progression To The Goal #to do more work! (nobody except petelgeuse actually cares about the cult goals on the personal level) #to collect more names! (there are never gonna be enough names) to collect more wives! (same thing here) #to be loved by someone who could never love you back because he stucks in his own role and unreachable goal #to be loved by everybody even though you are completely disgusting by your own volition #none of this matters but hey if you convince yourself that it does it doesn't suck so bad! #and if you admit that it doesn't then the only option is to ask yourself what am i doing here actually! and you not gonna love the answer! #well i sure am talking A LOT about them. sorry. #also that's the part where i'm slowly pointing at regurein- [I'm shot at the back of the head] #[my bloodied hand still draws “I'm a monster who hunts monsters” in sand tho]

[koheletgirl]

this is true but you've all done a very good job of showing that you only stop supporting the current israeli government when it affects Your rights

#the talking point of “many israelis hate bibi” is so meaningless to me atp. like sure u hate bibi but you fully support this war #“i dont want want to flatten gaza” sure but you do think destroying hamas is an attainable goal #and u support doing that by any means necessary #so like. what exactly do you want me to say here #politics cw

Feeling the ace-solation tonight.

#asexual #aromantic even #it just feels like the whole world looks at marriage and kids as endgame and holy fuck no #people only ever focus on who is dating who and when are you having kids and when are you getting married #like what the fuck #im over here thinking about how much time i can mash together seeing friends #and what books i want to read and bring me joy #and always thinking about these fictional worlds that have brought me so much more happiness than this one #like you belong somewhere else #like what do you do when you know nothing is wrong with you but sure as hell know others would think there is if they KNEW you #in all your ace or aro or whatever else glory #i just want quiet and peace without this looming feeling of people looking at you like youre supposed to be doing more #like you're in some fucked up timeline of having to achieve these life goals that sure as fuck arent yours #like please leave me tf alone #make the norm be however you get your happiness is the goal #the feels are real tonight #an untethered feeling of floating away or something #dont mind me im going back to my asmr videos #these tags are a mess rn

who was gonna tell me someone put up a birdmen video essay 8 months ago

#birdmen #interesting takes here! not sure I agree with everything but it IS a 12 minute video essay about birdmen #I think it's really funny that this person's big criticism of bm is the fight scenes not being that good which. like yeah #it isn't ABOUT fights the way kekkaishi was about fights #tanabe's goal wasn't 'what is the most riveting fight I can create' but rather 'how can I use blackouts to further our characters' #which naturally ISN'T going to result in the most exciting fight scenes because it's not ABOUT it #HOWEVER! I recognize that having Good and Riveting Fights IS an important component of most sci fi shonen stories #so like yeah. reason number 124325 birdmen is more seinen aligned than shonen aligned #also abilities being underutilized? yeah I totally feel that. but I don't think you can really say that the story is about abilities either #but yeah I think I agree with most of the things they said about birdmen's good points #like yeah! it's realistic. there's a good reason that they're schoolkids and their personal story arcs ARE about coming of age #it IS about not being alone and finding that you have more in common with your neighbor than you believed #I had more thoughts but I lost them lol #Youtube

i dont think ive ever drawn him Smiling while Like This... (also discussion in tags)

#he looks so dreamworks baby here. but its ok i jst wanted to scribble something before sleeps #i for sure need to work on it further i dont think i want him looking this overtly feminine like this? #even though thats a theme (nice bench press bro she let me hit bc i look like a girl) #i like the other 2 recents id done of him like this...gotta look at those + old art #this feels like overkill on both the Young and Feminine parts and would feel really gross what with. the Everything #i mean the Everything is awful regardless but him looking like this wld feel too much like. idk. exaggeration #he needs to look a little more boyish....plainer...more real. like the other 2 recent ones. ill work on it soon! sleep neow #him looking doll like when fed Is a goal but dis is like. almost excessive. etc #we'll see!! i dont Exactly exactly know where i wanna go with it yet...maybe this Is adjacent to the vision #i hope that makes sense⁉ gn #a doodley

#it's actually rly fucked up how seeing one bad picture of myself can ruin my entire evening #i've spent so much time and energy to reach a level of understanding and acceptance of how i look and it has been working #and it's like. i know i am fat. and it's okay. it is just a fact. i've mostly made my peace with it. #then i see a pic taken of me from an unflattering angle and all the unhealthy thinking patterns i've tried to unlearn come back #i will forever be bitter about growing up basically hating myself and i am SO MAD that it is still affecting me!!!! #it's like. so what if i look big in the picture or if i have a double chin in it. that is literally just how i look and that's it #the level of neutrality has been hard to achieve and it annoys me how precarious it still is :( #not to even mention that maybe neutrality isn't the best goal anyways. but like. the concept of being hot seems so foreign to me #like. other people? sure. me? never #sometimes i simply hate the society for making me feel unworthy of everything because i'm fat. #and how people talk about fat people and how they treat fat people has given me trust issues for life #so i'm just sad it's like this. i want to love myself and all that but sometimes it is just so hard #idk thank u for witnessing my rant if u read this far here have a flower 🌸 #body image tw #personal

sada and turo are fascinating characters for the obvious reasons and it definitely drives me crazy thinking about how they were willing to do a bunch of insane and dangerous things for the sake of bringing about paradise on earth, but i don’t think we acknowledge enough the fact that their idea of ‘paradise’ consists of a bunch of dinosaurs and robots running around. no world peace, no sociopolitical movements, no bringing back long-lost people. they straight up just wanted to play with cool toys they read about in picture books and that ended up driving them insane. they’re so funny

#now i knowww i’m sure it’s more complex than that #like the real implication here is that both of them are on the whole dissatisfied with the present age #sada is like ‘reject modernity embrace tradition’ and turo is like ‘PROGRESS PROGRESS PROGRESS’ to a reckless degree #i think their end goal was really to let the modern world be entirely reshaped into that old/new image #they knew very well that the paradox pokémon wouldn’t be able to peacefully coexist with the rest of the living beings in modern-day paldea #that destruction was foreseen #they saw it as a feature and not a bug #they WANTED that. they wanted to violently raze the world as it was to the ground and have their research byproducts create a new one #sparing only themselves and their son #(au where they succeeded but the paradox mons get way out of control and kill arven too. and then the prof experiences Regret.) #basically this is all to say i think the professors knew full well what they were doing and there was a lot of subtext in there #making them truly and genuinely insane people who still cling to the notion of a good cause #BUT. on the surface it looks like yaaay dinosaurs :) woah cool robots! :0 #literally just a pair of kids in preschool reading picture books and developing hyperfixations #so i think it’s funny #pokémon #scarlet and violet #sv spoilers

someone: id love to see merrill and velanna in da4 again...

me: 💖💓🥺😍💚🤩

someone: ...on solas' side

me: 😐😔🥱😴

#dragon age #merrill #velanna #i hate it bc especially in merrills case it hinges on ppl seeing her as naive enough to follow solas to her own and her friends detriment #which she is not. she was not naive she wanted something she was ready to sacrifice herself for #but she had no intention of sacrificing unwilling others and brought backup to kill her before she actually hurts someone if possessed #marethari meddled #but i saw that abt velanna too and . she wouldnt either. #solas has a whole stick up his behind about grey wardens and velanna is looking for her half darkspawned sister #in what world do their goals and outlooks align #linden leaf rustling #im not sure if even to tag this as critical im not even criticizing solas here im criticizing the interpretation of merrill and velanna #PLUS like a whole important dialogue of velannas was #that if they lost the old lore they should make new things that would be theirs #and solas is all abt destroying all the newer things the dalish made theirs #so like... what

Can't wait for the day Ohtaka tells us what Aijiro's deepest desire is because she SWERVED this opportunity like her life depended on it

#muse: inue aijiro. #I love how she said what everyone's goal is BUT Aijiro's. So true queen keep your secrets! #Yataro's biggest desire was to breed. Mikito's was to be subservient. Imari's is to love. Shiro's is to battle. #Technically we didn't get Aijiro's OR Seiroku's but we /did/ see Seiroku's a good few chapters ago. His biggest desire is revenge #So the only one we DIDN'T get here is Aijiro's. (dangling my empty cup in front of Ohtaka) spare Aijiro lore? spare Aijiro lore Ohtaka? #I'm supposing it has something to do with Naotora one way or the other bc I'm sure we're going to get a mini-arc for him soon #We got Seiroku's a few chs back; the latest 2 chs showed us Shiro's... and now Aijiro is the only one w a huge role and still no arc #I've always wondered why Aijiro didn't kiII Naotora if everyone at the Takeda was afraid the tradition of patricide was going to happen #He had plenty of chances when Naotora was a kid but even if he was sensible enough not to do it then; he had a chance w adult Naotora too?? #And yet he chose to only take one of Naotora's arms. Aijiro do you care about Naotora. If yes to what extent. If no why didn't you kill him
