#tricky; but worth it

[aegagrusscholarship]

this one post from @poryphoria has been living rentfree in my head for months. it’s so true. i am so normal about this concept and this theme and this fandom.

alt ending below the cut, based off the project nexus ending. while it’s cool as fuck, i am not sure if it conveys what i wanna convey!! so it’s just here as bonus content

#madness combat #madness project nexus #hank j wimbleton #mc deimos #mc sanford #2bdamned #jebediah christoff #tricky the clown #actual art #i am but a sappy little bitch who just wants all my favourite characters to be happy #but genuinely just. smth smth what it means to be human #i think #because like #yeaj life is meaningless whatever #but not in a bad way #just in the way that there’s no inherent… anything to it #but that doesn’t make it any less worth living! doesn’t make it any less importang or special #that people are here and living #so for this fuckin series to also say much the same thing. because nevada’s all mean and terrible and morally grey yeah #but nevada’s a place full of people being people and making mistakes and living #idk man the original post says it better than i can. it’s just so important to me #is the (original) final segment SAPPY AS FUCK. Yes. #do i care. No.

Bad Sansuary day 3 (hosted by @owl-bones!): Compliments

He’s not usually one for words, but seeing how often you praise him, he tries his best to reciprocate

#myart #sans #axe #horror sans #bad sansuary #sans x y/n #sansnomaly #words are tricky #but it’s worth the work for his loved ones #that’s how he sees it anyways #badsansuary

It started with a joke and ended as a thread

Here is the video from the queen @whimsquirksandstuff​

#those 2hrs were worth it #vriska universe #amphibia #core #darcy wu #marcy wu #steven universe #spinel #it was tricky without my tablet #my dear friend I will see you soon #as always greetings from Poland #it's weird here but some of us are ok #I hope

~Careful, I bite.~

Reuploading our favorite vampire boy here. From today's warmup sketch session!

Are we liking the halftone background, or is it too much?

I know it's been memed all to hell but the "mortifying ordeal of being known" quote really did alter my brain chemistry a bit I think. Like yeah. In order to truly be loved we really do have to bare our souls a little. We have to expose those intimate, vulnerable parts of our selves just a skosh. You can't expect people to embrace who you are if you don't show them first.

#it's a very risky undertaking but the reward is worth it #we all need to be loved #the other tricky part is to learn how to love yourself #and to do so without faltering before the naysayers #because the truth is that these people can't accept these intimate parts of themselves #everything is a performance to them and it's an exhausting way to live. to live in perpetual hiding out of the fear of being 'weird' #it's really tragic and i hope we can all be kinder to ourselves and to each other one day #idk i'm just waxing philosophical this morning instead of working so. take this i guess

There are eyes in the forest...

#First time drawing Belos woo! #This took way too long I swear almost a month and a half on and off #But I'm so proud of this piece #Even if the background took ages it was all worth it #He's really fun to draw actually... #Emperor Belos #philip wittebane #Beast/monster form Belos is tricky to draw though... Even more so when working with alcohol markers #The owl house #TOH #Traditional art #My art #Excuse my crappy subtitle

saw bears in trees yesterday, v happy :)

every moonbeam ! every feverdream !

#p #bears in trees #gig #live music #memories #am tired and achey today but it’s always worth it!!! gigs as a disabled person are tricky but I hope I’ll always be able to despite pain #anyway. it was perfect and I felt a wholeness that I’ve needed to feel. so happy to be been there :) #mine

currently crocheting a hexagon cardigan for my niece and it's turning out so cute

(i have two of these done already and i've started just yesterday)

#i will have oodles of ends to weave in but it will be worth it #i was planning for it to be a Christmas present but i think I'll send it to her right away #the tricky part is figuring out how long I'll make the sleeves #but maybe if i make cuffs it won't matter it the sleeves are a bit too long cause they will just look puffy?

Made a moodboard and then used it to make an oc! This was very fun, I think I’ll probably do it again in the future

about to swing a bat at a hornets nest but. i think/headcanon that christoff is just genuinely a bit of a manipulative bastard. that superiority complex didnt come from nowhere. jeb is just NOT a nice person im sorry madcom tumblr

#both hofnarr and sheriff had a crush on that guy and look where it got them /hj #sheriff and tricky voice 'the dick was NOT worth it' #2b is also in that same 'cunning bastard' camp. the difference is that doc doesnt try to hide it #jeb and 2b are two sodes of the same coin. do you get me. #madness combat #madcom

will never get over that at some point the monkees decided that they could just ask each other for platonic kisses and it’s become so commonplace that micky just assumes Davy is asking him for a kiss when they’re talking about the band kiss.

and this was written by michael fucking nesmith.

#the monkees #mike nesmith #peter tork #davy jones #micky dolenz #the monkees 90s special #the special is so weirdly structured and tricky to understand at first glance and i have SO MANY qualms about micky’s hair #but it’s worth it for #monkees four way platonic marriage written by our own michael nesmith #the monkees single handledly ended homophobia in their world #it’s the ‘no thanks’ because the monkees say consent rules and the ‘no but davy wants one’ for me #because they just all give each other platonic kisses??? is that what you’re telling me mr. nesmith?? #at some point davy stopped looking for girls and just does the dishes in his little housewife apron and gets all bitchy and uptight #idk they’re domestic and i love it #don’t even get me started on later in the special when micky tries to cover up the kiss thing with something about ‘kisses are bad’ #like no bb get over your internalized homophobia yes you’re on air but you’re free now #mike you’re not a good tv writer but that’s okay babe
