I do sometimes think about how we watched two middle-aged male pirates, covered in the blood of their enemies, run across a battlefield to throw their swords aside and make out, then turn around and go back to slaughtering British sailors. And it was, like, one of the most romantic scenes I've ever seen on TV.
What a time, man.

Okay can we just look at this for two seconds please, for July Disability Pride Month if nothing else
This is the image description box.
When you click on an image to describe it, do you know where the image description box goes?
That's right! ON TOP OF THE IMAGE, SO YOU CAN'T SEE IT.
I believe in modern science and the ability to make this window movable. Like, this is a known technological marvel, dragging windows to one side.
Could we please for the love of God have that? I can't speak for anyone else, but it would make actually using this accessibility feature a LOT easier, it's just good UI sense
Thanks to anyone receiving this voidscream

people are pissed at Critical Role for not committing to cutting ties with WOTC like they aren’t sitting there like “That’s a really great public image we helped you gain. would be a shame if we had to begin negotiations severing our brand, I mean we both benefit so well from this partnership. Look at how much you accomplished because you worked together with the fans, that’s a lot to throw away. Why don’t you give that license another look-over and see if it would have the results you really want. Because no one wants to do anything they might regret here.“
Guys, it’s a “pretty nice shop you got here.” what do you think is scarier to WOTC? Critical Role impulse cutting ties, or Critical Role very patiently going “well, it would be really unfortunate if you did that, we’d have to really rework everything we do here. I mean in order to save money ourselves, you know how companies work, we’d have to cut down on the Dungeons and Dragons content we use. With the Amazon show we’ve already been working on shifting to a more original fantasy universe, and if you wanted to claim a lot of this you’re going to end up in a fight with the Tolkien estate again...“
The long term game would be more devastating by far and way way more of a deterrent for a business minded argument rather than artist-minded one.

Fluent Freshman - Part 04
PREVIOUS
I really gotta figure out a name for this kid but it’s not today. I lean towards no one, aside from Wymack, actually knowing what his first name is. Dan’s the one that recruited him to be her replacement dealer so his first name has been lost to time.
They all refer to him by his last name which is, of course, something incredibly nondescript and boring. It’s Smith. He has brown hair and brown eyes, his hair isn’t scraggly or especially stylish, he’s perfectly average in height and BMI. Andrew is irritated that someone he regularly hangs out with of his own free will is so boring looking.
But he kind of respects how Fluent Freshman just flat out says no when Andrew says he should dye his hair something interesting. Doesn’t get irritated or say any reason why he’s not going to do that. Just a No. Andrew drops it because of course he does.
He doesn’t know that Fluent Freshman spends 20 minutes looking at hair dye the next time he goes to the near by CVS for his Pepto Bismol and the prescription that Abby referred him to go get. He looks at all the colors and is like “I cannot possibly dye my hair. I would look stupid / all the other foxes have the hair colors I wouldn’t look stupid in and they’d think I was COPYING their look.” He goes to the aisle where his Pepto is but it’s completely cleared out.
He, very bravely, does not just burst into tears. He gets his prescription and walks up to cash out and the girl is the usual one who helps him. She sees him and goes “OH, I kept some Pepto behind the counter for you. Do you want a bottle?” she asks. Fluent Freshman is the Pepto Bismol guy, his purchases so noticed and embarrassing that they saved some for him when they ran low. He says yes and swears to never come to this CVS again.
Fluent Freshman sees Captain Neil coming up unexpectedly while he’s doing some leisure reading of a Russian novel and Fluent Freshman has never moved so quickly in his entire life to stash it into his backpack pull out some gen-ed math assignment.
Captain Neil stops at his table and asks him how his ulcer is the next time they and FF considers the merits of a trade school. Out loud he says “It’s fine.”
Neil gives him a look.
FF is pale and his eyes are darting rapidly between Neil and something in the distance (the OPEN backpack next to the seat Neil is in with the RUSSIAN NOVEL. AN AMATEUR MISTAKE) and Neil thinks he finally understands why his teammates hate when he says he’s fine when he’s obviously not.
He decides it’s not something to tackle right now and passes along some probiotic yogurt that Andrew had given him to pass onto Fluent Freshman when Neil had said he was going to hang out with him while Andrew was in class. Fluent Freshman takes it and then Neil helps him with his math homework while he helps teach Neil Spanish.

And since you requested it:

🌸 Pink lady 1-2-3 🌸
Drawings I made while testing new watercolor papers. The results are not the best. These papers don't really let you wash together colors, which is weird for watercolor papers. They just suck all the water in and don't let you do anything with it :') I feel sorry for these ladies, they could have been much better...now I have a bunch of papers I don't know what to do with :I
(the papers are btw: Clairefontaine Aquarelle Etival, Drasca Watercolour Pad, SM LT Art Start Pad)
Close ups under the cut-
