Catching up on the whole watcher situation because I ironically stopped watching their channel regularly because I didn’t like how expensively produced their shows were compared to Buzzfeed Unsolved’s simplicity

#i didn’t have a problem with them changing the way they did things or anything #like it made sense that they would want to have a significant departure from their Buzzfeed style after leaving Buzzfeed #i just didn’t like it as much #so i would only watch occasionally if i needed something to listen to in the background #the fact that they are now trying to put their content behind a paywall #because production is so expensive #is wild to me #like imo the production actively made the show less enjoyable #why are you spending money you don’t have on it??? #idk it just makes me sad #like i know the YouTube documentarians i watch are probably going to end up doing videos on this #usually with those videos i’m the one from the outside looking in on some drama around a person i’ve never heard about before #but i was a fan of ryan and shane since high school #I have some of their Buzzfeed unsolved merch #it’s sad that people i looked up to turned out to be so out of touch on so many levels #watcher

well, this all looks rather familiar...

#the llama or alpaca gem literally looks like one of the gems from the ice king crown #though thats interesting because I thought the ice elemental guy got it from a lava monster #also the wizard looking guys on the part about the magic beans remind me of those things shown in the cosmic imagination explained vids #those ones by paxw on youtube & other creators #im getting a bit tired pardon me if I miss on names & things im still reeling from the 7-8 episode experience; thank you to the AT crew #the next slide looks a LOT like the land of Ooo though I can't pinpoint where; im already terrible with irl geography #this man has been fixated on cursed objects since like day 1 lmao #doomed by the narrative fr #petrigrof got me crying though im ngl #im gonna miss my partner a lot when I go to finland :((( It might be a few years before I can see them in person again because travel #is very expensive 😭 thats probably partially why this hit so hard for me; I'm gonna miss our dates & adventures #mine #op #adventure time spoilers #adventure time fionna and cake #adventure time #fionna and cake #simon petrikov

#ragsycon exclusive #wip #i was gonna do something ambitious with my seaglass paints on the face and leaving the teeth chrome #but masking off those teeth is an incredible enormous pain in the ass #so I'm probably going to give it some sort of neon lowlights instead #among other things #I'd love to have the means to sculpt these in clay and cast them instead of digital sculpt and 3d print #because it would be easier to add in surface detail that would make the paints more interesting #but that's an incredibly expensive endeavor that i don't have the funds for #and I'm already bad enough at advertising the things i DO have in my shop #idk idk #I've actually already nearly broken even on my shop startup costs #thanks to redbubble #the problem being that PO box renewal fees are in a few months and they are. spensive

great print day 🌞🌸

patreon print for july (patrons get first dibs) | extras in the shop next month

#art tag #printmaking #block printing #block print #relief print #linocut #artists on tumblr #traditional art #patreon tag #photo record #printed lots of rice paper options with this one!! patrons will get first option at those; any extras are special edition #and will probably be more expensive #these aren't the best photos in the world but i can only spend so much time trying to get perfect photos tbh. whatever #really had a gorgeous time printing these; only TWO were misprints. one was my very first test & the other was bc i got the paper too wet #bc it was one of the crinkly ones & i thought i'd have to wet it; didn't have to; it bled instead. but that's ok! worse things have happene

sigzai hc that dazais suicide jokes make sigma rly worried and sometimes send him into a panic attack bc he doesnt want to lose dazai anf the stupid twink realizes it eventually (sigma refuses to say anything bc thats just how dazai copes and he doesnt want to somehow make it worse) and stops making as many self deprecating jokes/becomes more aware of how much he means to people . i dont even know they make me insane

i love them

#asks #autistic-ranpo #i love this headcanon very much actually #dazai is such a smart guy but he doesnt really think about how is actions might affect other people somtimes i think . #hes always thinkig in his twelves steps ahead chess mode but he neglects the little things sometimes #meanwhile sigma . he thinks TOO much about how what he does affects other people . see : the entire casino arc #he takes way too much about everyone else into consideration at his own expense #idk where im going with this but . theyre so very #i dont know how to explain it but a lot of those two are so similar yet so ridiculously far removed from each other and different . #does this make sense . probably not #arghrghrghrghh

I am heavily contemplating on buying myself a dvd player soon and buying all the DVDs for a ton of movies and tv shows I grew up watching cuz I miss the magic of dvds

#hear me out on this one okay. but the Barbie movies were magic on dvd back in the day #and I do wanna see if stores are still selling the old strawberry shortcake dvds before I go online for those #I wanna snort that nostalgia so bad #and of course I’ll need to get the dcau on dvd #like all of it cuz I’m so bored with the dccu since we don’t get as much new stuff #it’s always Batman or superman and love them but I’m kinda bored from always seeing a new bman or sups movie #Wonder Woman I wouldn’t mind a new actor for her but I know she’s not gonna be a muscle mommy which I’ll be sad about #give me a Wonder Woman that is built like rhea ripely god damnit #the flash is eh cuz I found out this whole time I’ve been watching the Wally west flash #but yeah Wally is who I want and then there’s the green lantern like dude is so cool iams all we have is the 1 from 2011 I think #sure I could watch some of the tv series they have but I have too many shows on my watch list it’s overwhelming at times so I skip over lots #tho I will have to pray like crazy cuz some of the things I know I want are probably gonna be expensive as fuck even as second hand #saw a class of the titans season 1 dvd going for $81 cad 💀💀💀 #the world is not kind to those who don’t love the digital age #I prefers my dvds cuz I own it and no one can take it away from me unless they physically steal it #omg I’m turning into my grandma cuz she still had the vhs player with some tapes too #just wish she never donated the tapes for swan princess 1-3 and Anastasia and ferngully and basically all my faves that she owned #like Ngl a part of me wants to hit up value village just to see if maybe they’re still there or if I’ll find other copies of the same things #cuz a perk about cities with older people is that you get so much older tech and other items it’s insane

in 2024 I wanna stop hearing about betterhelp

#elise's posts #SO many youtubers etc I like are promoting this shit #fyi for those who don't know it's a REALLY unethical business trying to take advantage of the mentally ill #and before you say 'but how else am I meant to find a therapist that does online sessions' #post-pandemic most therapists offer this #and if you want the whole 'I can text my therapist for therapy anytime 24/7' thing... #sorry I know it might sound useful but it's SUPER bad for both your own mental health and your therapist's #sorry but therapists are not meant to be there for you 24/7 #that's not their job and it's really unhelpful for YOU to become dependant on a 24/7 therapist #betterhelp do not vet their therapists thoroughly #and some people say they have been evangelised to on betterhelp by preachers who ask the algorithm to assign them queer and atheist clients #many reputable therapists state that it's a terrible business model promoting unhealthy practices to patients #it claims to be the cheapest option but it's more expensive than the most expensive therapist I've ever had (I'm in the UK) #and significantly more expensive than the cheapest who was still good and probably more qualified than some people on betterhelp #you pay extra for the middleman #(being allocated a therapist you didn't choose and vet yourself isn't great anyway imo surely you want agency in this huge decision?) #and I'm sorry but pride counselling is a branch of the same company #please just look for therapists that specialise in your needs through a regulatory model and get in touch with them directly #not all of them have waitlists and tbh if every therapist on betterhelp is available whenever what does that say about them

Sitting down to floss and brush my teeth has been lifechanging. On a completely unrelated note how the fuck am I supposed to have this skeleton for several more decades. It’s all over for me lads 😔

#knees hurt. hips hurt. back hurts. wrists hurt. swag #it’s not this bad most of the time but by the end of the day it’s like auuuugh #it really is too bad that I’ve got extreme doctor fears because of the IssuesTM! #and oh yeah I don’t have health insurance LOL… #which I am using as a convenient excuse to avoid going to the doctors LOL #i have some doctor ~traumas~ I think LOL! #im working up to it. it’s glacial. sometime this year maybe? #I went twice as an adult and both times were for health forms for college enrollment #I’ve been to the ER and an urgent care once or twice though so clearly I’m FINE… #this is BAD do not be like me #but it’s only become clear to me in the past year or two that the incidents in my childhood reeeeally affected me #and to have US healthcare be such a profoundly difficult and punitive process basically means I am just never going to like jump through #those hoops only to be confronted with a severe phobia lol #im not saying that’s a reasonable train of thought but it’s more that that’s my subconscious reasoning #but it is a 2024 goal to get seen by a doctor #but the other thing is that it’s so fucking clear to me that they will do NOTHING for either PMDD or my joint pain which are my chief #complaints at the moment #but like i should probably be like getting routine panels and Pap smears :-( #everything’s SO EXPENSIVE… #They’ll be like give me your blood. ok all normal everything is healthy. ok that’ll be literally $200 #:-( #ugh I’m upsetting myself just thinking about doctors. ok Goodnight #(with full intention to keep scrolling)

It’s telling, in a “oh you REALLY didn’t think this one through did you” way, that one of Unity’s walkbacks/clarifications was “Oh no, DEVELOPERS won’t be on the hook for Gamepass/Playstation Plus installations, those fees will go to the distributors!”

Meaning, Microsoft and Sony.

For fees that will be applying retroactively.

If you throw a rock at Gamepass’s biggest indie titles you will probably hit one made in Unity.

And the point at which they go into effect - $200,000 in revenue, 200,000 installs - is COMICALLY low compared to Gamepass numbers.

Like, this is going to easily be in the realm of tens of millions of dollars for Microsoft, minimum. It’s fairly likely to be enough money they actually give a shit.

For fees that will be applying retroactively.

I wish them fucking luck is what I’m getting at they’re gonna fucking need it.

#unity clusterfuck #this is before we get into hoyoverse’s titles this is before we get into NINTENDO’S titles #(because yeah Fire Emblem Engage and BDSP were both made in Unity) #(much less the mobile games) #this is before we get into the non-juggernaut studios with juggernaut titles #and the true juggernaut studios can probably pay the royalties but it’s enough money they may /actually give a shit/. #and they have both lawyers and the money to handle a massive expensive time-consuming lawsuit #it’s gonna absolutely fucking suck for the indie devs in the meantime but like. HOO BOY. #this is also before we get into that proprietary install tracker and its lack of transparency and how it might impact things #like say. the GDPR. #just a total clusterfuck on every conceivable level #they walked back a ‘delete and reinstall count as two separate installs’ bit that they’d confirmed to STEPHEN TOTILO #(for those not in the know: generally considered the most credible and Actually Journalisty Games Journalist.) #and like seriously how the FUCK is this going to recognize the difference between a charity bundle install or a piracy install #compared to a normal one? #there are SO MANY THINGS in that announcement that just. where do you fucking start.

Our poor Broke As Fuck Matt Murdock had to pay $100-$1000 (depending on his plan) for JAWS on his laptop and $300-$1000 for an electronic braille display and another $1000-$2000 for his embossing printer we see in the defenders. Like that man can’t afford that shit.  Being disabled is expensive as fuck y’all and Matt certainly didn’t have money to spare.

#Matt Murdock #blind matt murdock #Daredevil #being disabled is so expensive #im not disabled but I can do some basic research #and yeah all those expenses are a once every like 5-10 years thing #but there are still cane costs #cause he tosses those things around like candy #he probably also has to go to yearly optometry appointments to make sure his eyes dont get even more fucked up #cause eye health is not just about vision! #and we all know that man does not have insurence #and just miscellaneous costs to do with his disability #not to mention repair costs if his assistive tech breaks #and just the general cost of living and running a buisness #I just have these thoughts occasionally #accessibility is important yall #but unattainable for many #money being a huge contributing factor #tea talks

long ramble in tags tldr: kindness rules

#was it genocide that got them to the human world or was it her kindness and promise at the expense of her past #who was ultimately the reason the goldy pond kids were able to survive and escape #who got stabbed by a demon and was in a coma for four weeks trying to protect her newfound family #ultimately shifting his perspective on humans and hunting in general and becoming a driving force in their efforts for freedom #who became best friends with the literal ''evil blooded girl'' and was able to come up with a sound solution to demons needing human meat #in order to maintain their forms #do you think norman would be happier knowing he had to be the sacrificial lamb killing children with his bare hands and fully executing it #do you think ray would be happier if emma had simply let him die instead of giving him a firm dose of reality and helping him to #live a life full of love and support and kindness #of course she isnt perfect and i most definitely would change a lot of things if i could but this is just one of the many comments i see #when youre blinded by hatred you cant think objectively #i understand that norman went through freakish amounts of hell but to put it in my perspective: if i were a demon #i highly doubt that i would fully understand how intelligent humans truly are #you know those videos of people boiling crabs alive and saying ''it doesnt hurt them'' #there would probably be a lot of rhetoric around that nature and all i would know is eat human fingertip = go play tag #so why would my parents deserve to die? what difference is there between cattle like pigs and cows in our world to humans in theirs? #anyways. im sorry for liking stories where kindness prevails and opens doors to opportunities previously thought imaginable #i hate constantly seeing this stuff when looking up tpn and it irks me it really does

Lies of P keychain poll results (it's been 84 years)

Characters: 1. P

2. Giangio, Sophia, Romeo's Feet (I see you)

Pairings: 1. P/Romeo

2. Carlo/Romeo

The plan is to have at least three (uncolored?) drafts by the end of the month, then see where I want to go from there. At the very least I'll have ita bag fodder, experience working with manufacturers / simplifying designs for chibi, and Yuki will have a charm of her blorbos. :3

#俺の #shipping is like $20 for (1) thing then it goes up from there so I wanna factor that in y'know #e.g. having more designs printed at once is probably better but we shall see #I want manjuu but those fuckers are expensive comparatively #THE DREAM THO: lies of p manjuu #there was an ita bag base I was waffling on (either for just general lop or giangio) but it was like $200 with shipping and I just couldn't #IT WAS REALLY COOL THOUGH
