#mark you need human connection. you need to hang out with your friends #what stopped omni-man from going full evil? becoming immersed in the humanity he was supposed to subjugate #you will not become a better hero by distancing yourself from the people you're sworn to protect #THATS what college was supposed to do. give you a chance to be human even if its only for a little bit at a time #willow whispers #invincible spoilers #invincible

van helsing: do you get what's going on?

seward: no, can you tell me?

van helsing, showing the news articles: NOW do you get it?

seward: no. do you mind just clarifying-

van helsing, rambling about spiders: so you get it now, right

seward: I really really don't. can you explain it to me like I'm 5

van helsing, dragging seward to a graveyard: ok you definitely understand

seward, crying: I don't. please just tell me.

van helsing, producing a random child: YOU SEE?

seward: I hate this game

I’ve been having fun turning my VR art into AR paintings lately.... really makes me feel like I’m just casually living in the future. this scene is the landscape from ‘Reality Is’, and it was brought into AR with Figmin XR!

if you want to see how this was made, I’ve got a process video here. (everything you see was hand painted and hand placed in virtual reality)

#vr #ar #figmin xr #artists on tumblr #art #digital art #landscape #nature art #landscape art #mandala #sun #i still can't believe that it's now my full time job to just... make stuff like this and publish it as Official Content #for the app it was created with #if anyone reading this owns a quest2 i highly highly recommend getting figmin xr #not just to put art in your own living room and walk through it yourself #but for the simple joy of being able to doodle on real life #quest2 passthrough is black&white but it's still entertaining even without color #immersive painting

thinking about how fucking cool i-no guilty gear is and how much i love her. narratively and design wise. like.

the first two things you pick up from her visual design are that she Fucks, and she plays guitar. That she’s a hedonist, and maybe an artist, or maybe just someone who would hang out at dive bars and play covers and get drunk and have a good time.

and neither of those things ever seem to be true at all, with how she’s portrayed in the stories. She sometimes puts on the whole sultry thing just to sling insults, but for the most part she’s just, serious, and vaguely miserable, and taking part in the Greater Scope Plot and fighting over the Fate Of The World. She never does anything for herself, never does anything for fun. She puts all this effort into using time travel to avert disasters, both in the drama cd and in the xrd sign arcade mode - and from what i’ve heard of the drama cd, she hates doing it, she hates feeling like the Author of the world and not just a participant in it - but eight years later she’s still doing it. She holds deep, deep grudges over who the chosen ones are, who gets to wield the flame of corruption. In Strive, she tries to become God, she schemes and fights hard for it, and she seems bored at best and miserable at worst the whole time.

She wears the visage of a free-spirited hedonist, but she can’t keep herself out of fate-of-the-world conflicts, she can’t seperate herself from what she is, what she was created to be, and what power she has. She spends her whole life toiling away at all these plots to alter the course of the whole world.

And when she’s defeated, at the end of Strive, she asks Sol why the fuck he has a weapon that strong, when he was practically unstoppable already,

and Sol just basically says, “It’s a hobby. A man’s gotta have hobbies.”

And like. I-no just. Doesn’t. She doesn’t have hobbies. She looks like she does, she looks like she wants to, but she doesn’t.

And Requiem is such a fucking cool song lyrically, talking about how her ascent to power is just destroying her, how she flew high so she could see everything but now there is no up or down above the clouds and she can’t breathe - just this self-destructive, obsessive involvement in The Big Picture, pursuing power because she’s Supposed to, and never once thinking about what She Wants.

And through her interactions with Axl, through the lyrics of Requiem, through Sol’s comment about hobbies, and through I-no’s visual design, even through Testament who almost seems to exist as a perfect foil to this concept as someone who has limitless power but just lives small and happy with all the hobbies in the world, we’re just left to wonder - 

what if she actually did the things it looks like she does? What if she just, went to a dive bar, got on stage, played Stone Cold Crazy (with the Metallica lyrics just to piss off Frederick somewhere), got wasted, Hecked, and had just a wild, inconsequential, hedonistic good time, and left all the Big Picture behind? But it’s too late for her, because she’s already flown too high.

She’s so fucking cool like,.

university.. university leave me alone

#heres the situation: for my cognitive literary studies class (quite fun) we had to pick primary material and a cognitive angle to analyse it #from. and the deadline was coming up and i who have been thinking very intensely about robots for the last half a year picked #yeah you guessed it. fucking PIERS PLOWMAN. which is not fun for me but i panicked about the deadline #so now i have to do something about piers plowman and its cognitive literary properties #and im in hell this is hell i have been extremely stressed about piers plowman for a month. to the point where ive been in physical pain #AND I CANNOT. THINK OF ANYTHING. ABOUT PIERS PLOWMAN. #and the teacher for that class is so nice and chill and she was like you can pick anything at all. and i went with piers plowman #like it's interesting but from what COGNITIVE angle can i approach piers plowman. #ive been thinking about saying exactly this that piers plowman is more for historical linguists and theologists than narratologists but im #also positive plenty of scholars read piers plowman for the plot #so then i thought about the characters and whether you can Connect with them and whether they help you Immerse yourself in the story and #other terminology i learned in cognitive literary studies class. #theyre allegorical and very 1 dimensional and there could be something about whether we from 2024 understand them in the same way #people from the 14th century did. like this was what i put in my proposal when i made it #but now i actually have to make the slides and use cognitive literary papers for this and it's just not going at all. i cant do it. #i cant do anything i cant enjoy the daylight and the warmer weather i cant think about anything other than im not making progress on this #and it's bad for me!! it's bad for my health i feel bad. why did i go with piers plowman why did i not pick watership down #my post #i have plenty to say about watership downm cognitively. #also about old possums book of practical cats #maybe i could email her and tell her id like to change it.. no #ive also been reading the tombs of atuan which is incredible

I think the most heartbreaking thing in the world is the revelation that sometimes you will make friends and everything will be fine until you make or do something mildly successful and realize that instead of celebrating you or hyping you up they are failing to hide that they actually resent you for it

#wordy wendy #hurts man #how are you guys not constantly excited by the stuff your friends are making? #jealousy is a normal human emotion but you could at least do a better job at hiding it #muster up some praise even if tou dont immerse yourself. man

Imagine back shots in the sunflower field from the first film

#notsafe #confession #imagine #The Texas Chainsaw Massacre #Texas Chainsaw Massacre #tcm #tcm 1974 #EDIT: I had said there are no other good clear shots of the sunflower field but that's a lie. There is one earlier just from farther away #This is more of an upclose shot of the sunflowers specifically - and there aren't any in focus of the flowers themselves 🌻 #If you want to immerse yourself in imagining being railed/railing in the flower field behind the Sawyer home play the video game 🌻🌻🌻 #Because God the game is so gorgeous in terms of scenery and does such a loving job of recreating the environment #Be careful though because The Hitchhiker might be waiting for you there

i am full body raging about this bullshit

like don't get me wrong if you're an east coast yank I'm genuinely happy for you

but prime premiere website literally states early screening is 26th, but now we have to go black out for 10 days starting the 18th

im so fucking angry this is a disaster waiting to happen, why the fuck did they bother getting so worked up about The Spoiler when youre pulling this shit jfc

if i see ONE SINGLE spoiler please know that there is NO CORNER OF THE EARTH where i will not find you and skin you alive 🥰

#good omens #good omens season 2 #this is just a rant post and im selfishly and childishly angry about it #but seriously why the fuck get so ratty about the leak when youre opening yourself to a fucking spoiler disaster 10 days before release? #absolute joke #reposting because tumblr went screwy for me #edit: the fact that i went full ham in immersing in spoilers following the nyc screening has Humbled me #and i can assure you i am no longer the person who posted this out of jealousy and self righteousness #the character development i have undergone in the last month has been jarring but im vibing with it

[rondoel]

ok I finally got myself Outer Wilds,

main menu made me cry instantly because I got space AND banjo music and idk this specific vibe just pokes me right into the heart, I died before I even got into my first spaceship cause jumped into the geyser or whatever that was, then after like two hours of playing I threw up my dinner because I got motion sick, overall 10/10 I would keep playing without a break but I’m afraid for my stomach XDD

#outer wilds #me: *gets motion sick and throws up* wow I'm so immersed 10/10. #unironically tho #i love it #the music in this #and the general vibe of exploring the unknown by yourself #unknown yet familiar #*sigh* #is like a gentle caress of my heart #there are just some games that hit me right in the feels

how do you imagine Marcille to be in several centuries? Also what do you think of that popular headcanon that becoming a dragon extends Falin's life?

ironically i get too sad to think about it so i generally don't (or at least, probably won't until i thoroughly explore the current postcanon possibilities and don't have much more to flesh out in my head) but. you know me, i'm the marcille mommy issues guy, i think she'd be a lot like her mother: always cheerful and much better at hiding her negative emotions.

as for falin.... i used to like it, but then someone posted a fic about her dealing with how she'd end up outliving laios and i was like oh god fucking dammit that's so sad

#asks #for all i write about these characters accepting death #i am unable to imagine a healthy scenario for marcille after falin bc i myself haven't come to grips with it #like sometimes i think about how im going to outlive my parents and have to change gears so fucking fast before i have a meltdown #it's easy to say that it's better to have loved and lost and write hopeful things about it #to immerse yourself in the reality of what comes after is... somehow harder the older i get #dungeon meshi #dungeon meshi manga spoilers #marcilleposting

mumu.. you… wanna get away from yourself, huh….

[perilegs]

ive been thinking it would b fun to learn a new language but i dont want to go back to swesish bc that's boring. i don't want to go back to spanish bc im just unable to nail the pronunciation down and it's critical in a language that's spoken so widely bc ppl WILL make fun of a white boy trying to speak spanish. thai could b fun but i don't really feel like learning a new writing system. my native language is finnish so i think i could thrive with another phonetic language and i want something that's simple but has challenge, like, a lot of conjugation but easy to grasp grammar rules. do you guys see my problem. the problem being it's starting to sound like i need to learn polish

#men will do literally anything but their thesis #i did some googling and someone was like ''oogh the polish language is on steroids u gotta learn 7 different conjugation forms per word'' #like. ok. thats not something you have to memorize. you can just immerse yourself and then you know how that stuff works #will i ever use polish for anything? i dont think so. but it seems like a fun language #and like even if i learn it and get myself in a situation i could use it there's always dialects so i doubt it would be useful to #me personally. which motivates me a bit bc it means theres no pressure to learn it super fast and good #i can literally just have fun with it #leevi talks
