Hello your latest diasommnia art has me in a chokehold. There are so many details I love but most importantly is there the implication that Lilia dyes his hair to look more down and hip with the kids???

thank you! :D

I'm pretty sure (although don't ask me what story or random voiceline it's from) it's canon that Lilia's hair streaks are dye/color and that he switches colors when he feels like it, he's just been on a pink streak for a while! ~*artistically*~ it's a handy shorthand to show time passing; I've also seen people do that by giving him long hair, but that was harder to see in the style I went with. :')

also I just really like the idea that one day Lilia woke up and was like

#art #twisted wonderland #it was supposed to be a doodle but it got away from me sorry #has anyone ever seen lilia and draculaura in the same room because i'm pretty sure they're the same person #anyway i've been inadvertently reminded of his union birthday shoes and now i need to go stare at a wall for a while

kevin day is like. he's a child star. he's experienced an incomprehensible amount of labor abuse and inhumane working conditions. he was taken from his home country by a close relative with bad intentions. he's a cult baby. he grew up in captivity underground. every bad thing that could happen to a human being has happened to him at some point. he is happier than most of us when he can kick a ball for a living.

#me in hell: WHERE THE FUCK IS TETSUJI MORIYAMA #the labor abuse was bad enough but might i remind everyone it started when they were 7. it was CHILD LABOR TOO #TETSUJI MORIYAMA. #kevin day cult survivor human trafficked abused for his labor at the tender age of seven years old living life like its not there #KEVIN DAY (GRABS HIS COLLAR) #marx could save him #actually i dont even think marx could save him this guy oh. THE RAVENS NEEDED TO UNIONIZE #or at least the ones that had no CHOICE but to be there. please. god #kevin day you have been inflicted to inhumane working conditions ever since you were a child. communism would save you #txt #kevin

I've always liked Cucurucho because he's a weird little dude, he's fun for the narrative, and whenever he shows up you know something interesting is about to happen.

HOWEVER I have never in my life sympathized with Cucurucho more than I did in that moment where he opened the door, saw the dark matter infecting everything, and just stood there in silence for a moment clearly thinking "Oh, FFS."

Man's an overworked underpaid unappreciated office worker who's dealing with stuff way above his pay grade while his boss is off doing who knows what. I'm grabbing my screen and shaking it rn like "I GET IT CUCURUCHO! I GET IT!! I'VE BEEN THERE BEFORE, I UNDERSTAND!!!"

#i talk #qsmp talk #Me 🤝 Cucurucho: Overworked underpaid and unappreciated #I've joked about ''Office worker'' Cucurucho a lot but dang. It really do be like that #it's ok Cucurucho we've all had some shady bosses #Though I can't say I've ever hunted someone down with a chainsaw before #QSMP true ending: The Federation workers unionize

SUBLIME CINEMA #646 - LILYA 4-EVER

Bleak and overwhelming, this is a movie that has haunted me since I first saw it. Lukas Moodysson’s best film is also one of the best Swedish films of all time, up there with Bergman and Andersson’s. This is as uncompromising a film there is, shot in whatever hellhole location in Estonia they dug up to stand in for Soviet Russia - and the feeling of humanity’s grime and decay lingers all these years later.

Very embarassing that I only realized while drawing my last illustration that Elrena is wearing SHORTS and not a skirt

That is NOT A SKIRT how the hell did I miss that for SO LONG!?

Finding myself reflecting on what is often the public’s incorrect understanding of mine and Sigurd’s relationship.

So many people (often cis men) see me with a big, often excited dog and love to talk down to me because they perceive the situation as less controlled or “under one’s thumb” as they expect/desire their own dogs to be (which is often complete shut down control).

In reality Sigurd is the most difficult dog I own. He is aloof, incredibly intelligent, very low biddability, and requires a very specific and curated relationship to do ANYTHING for you. He knows his size and he is in excellent shape. If he wanted to truly drag me and do what he wanted on a walk he would. He does to anybody that’s not me, including Mr D who he will often nip and manipulate to get his way. I am the only one that’s ever been able to get this dog to do work in my hands, be it sports or obedience. These men that negatively “joke” on my lack of control while my dog stands by my side and listens when I hold him back from his excitement would have no idea what to do with him. He would baffle them.

#dogblr #dog training #Sigurd #alaskan malamute #love that dog so much #I was playing bitey face game with him and my hands for ages earlier #and he is SO gentle with me #he’s kinda awkward with other dogs or just a rude asshole #but we’ve always had this understanding between us #sometimes I think it makes older men insecure to know they cannot handle what I handle #not just in strength but this dog actually respects me you know #I mean am I the only person Sigurd respects….yeah. #no manliness or perceived human dominance will make him listen to you #you actually gotta be….mommy #sry for this it’s 1am kekfkgkgkg #anyways sigurd is like the most r+ center dog ever #my dogs are unionized

Thinking about Vulcans prizing “calm” over “happiness”. 

Like how humans look back on their childhood and remember how happy it was - joyful days spent running around in the sun, getting into a bit of trouble, laughing with peers and family - that’s how they know it was a good one. Meanwhile Vulcans might look back on their childhood and remember how peaceful it was. Quiet days spent studying, the warm glow of candlelit lessons in caves, getting along smoothly with ones peers - that’s how they know it was a good one. Humans typically chose their friends and romantic partners based on if this person makes them feel happy above all. The question of “Do you like being with them?” is interpreted to mean “Does being with them make you feel happy?” But since Vulcans don’t experience (or strive for) happiness there would have to be some other parameter. So I was thinking about like, what is a good relationship to a Vulcan? There’s obviously a big emphasis on ‘togetherness’ in Vulcan unions. The Pon Farr ritual Tuvok does with his [hologram] wife involves them committing to becoming “Two bodies one mind” and it’s stated that they give and receive from each other all that they are. There’s also of course the iconic “Never and always touching and touched”. This is all (as was said during T’Pol & Koss’ wedding) “The Vulcan heart, the Vulcan soul, this is our way.” Vulcans are also (ENT) expected to live together for at least a year after being married - I imagine so that they can bond with and get to know one another. In SNW T’Pring wants for Spock to honor the commitments he makes to her so in that case T’Pring values Spock keeping his word to her and placing her above other things. I see a bit of Tuvok in that, where he prizes his commitment to T’Pel over anything else to the point where he’d nearly rather die than break it: (Even though he eventually agrees to having sex with a hologram it MUST be of his wife and he lets Tom/The Audience know that he will NOT be making a habit of it. There’s no ironclad logical reason for him to react this way as a hologram is not a person but his commitment to T’Pel seems to take precedence and I believe that’s his reasoning. His bond with T’Pel is logical, sustaining and important to him and he’s loath to break it over some bodily need. some desire that will pass even if it kills him.) <- By this way of thinking, betraying T’Pel would be the emotional choice while remaining loyal to her is remaining loyal to his logical self. A strong emphasis on loyalty to one’s mate seems to be a common Vulcan trait. In the beginning this seems to be rooted in tradition but later on its probably assumed that the couple will be loyal to one another out of some sort of actual connection between two people as opposed to pure obligation. In ENT T’Pol says that a certain degree of “affection” is eventually expected to happen within a marriage (though the way she says it makes me think this doesn’t always occur and isn’t necessarily The Goal) and her mother says that she and her husband developed a “deep connection” to one another. All this makes me think that a connection and a sense of ‘togetherness’ or ‘compatibility’ would also be prized over more emotional things like a passion for one another. It’s a partnership above all and that would be prized over a romantic union.  It makes me think of Vulcans’ roots in violence and war. Maybe this commitment to a steady togetherness, two people who don’t know each other being able to work together so seamlessly they nearly become one, is a way to show they’ve moved beyond that despite the pon farr remaining. Vulcans are a naturally very emotional species. Someone who incites that would probably not be seen as someone you should spend your time with. Someone who makes your heart pound, sets you ablaze, fills you with passion - that sounds like a bad Vulcan time v_v  Tuvok says as much when he talks about how he was struck with “shon-ha’lock”. Humans wouldn’t see anything wrong with having a crush on someone (and indeed in that episode Tom only comes to the conclusion that it’s a shame Tuvok couldn’t act on these emotions) but it’s obvious that even a teenaged crush when uncontrolled can become a very big problem to a Vulcan. In one of the Star Trek Novels Tuvok even stops being friends with and talking to a girl because she tearfully admits she has feelings for him and he sees that her feelings for him cause her pain.  Instead of thinking “Oh, she really likes me, good! We’re close friends so maybe we can make this work.” or even “I don’t like her romantically but since we’re close friends we can work through it.”  Tuvok thinks “Oh, she really likes me. That must be causing her to become very emotional and I can see she’s clearly upset. I’ll remove myself from her life so my presence doesn’t incite those emotions anymore.” And while him flat out just cutting himself out of her life might seem weird and kind of cruel and a frankly hilarious reaction to someone confessing their love to you - I also think it’s something he thought of as a kindness. If his presence harms her (stirs up emotions in her) then he will remove himself to keep from harming her. Along that vein, calmness or the absence of strong emotions would be a good relationship and one worth staying in. Not that there can’t be any emotions (Tuvok and T’Les obviously care[d] deeply for their respective spouses) but that they must be controllable and able to be cast aside in the face of logic.  I also think that “knowing” the other person would be considered very important (after marriage of course). If you’re to operate as a partnership, a team, and especially if you’re both telepaths you should be able to know your spouse pretty damn well. I see T’Pring attempt to do this in SNW where she is constantly fighting to get to know Spock which Spock self-consciously discourages since he’s been told/shown that his human side is unappealing to Vulcans.  But yeah man idk...just picturing a Vulcan and a human talking for hours...walking along the beach...sleeping side by side...getting to know one another...and at the end of it all one says “You make me feel happy” and the other says “Your presence calms me” and it means, essentially, the same thing.

#star trek #vulcans #Flipside to humans seeing Vulcan relationships as frighteningly cold and formal: where's the choice? the autonomy? the love! #Vulcans seeing Human relationships as exhaustingly turbulent meandering and estranged: where's the union? the commitment? the connection! #In the star trek universe my only contribution is that I write a book titled 'Vulcan-Human Relationships: Peace & Love' #and it's never important to any story it's just a background gag #Vulcan: Is that your husband? / Human: HUSBAND?? Haha we've only been dating like a year or two. / Vulcan: I can't with this. I have to go. #I don't ever know what to call these things #ummmmmmmmmmm I hope I'm making any sense #alien affections and value systems my beloved.... #people who earnestly 100% do NOT desire human concepts of 'love' or 'happiness' - INTERESTING!!!!! #I like Tuvok a lot when i think about this bc he has a Vulcan spouse whom he cherishes while every other main Vulcan has either: #A human love interest and/or A vulcan spouse they don't want to marry #WHICH IS WHY I WISH. THEY HAD EXPLORED TUVOK'S RELATIONSHIP W ITH HIS WIFE. EVEN A ///LITTLE//// BIT. #-chewing at the walls- BUT ITS FINE. IT'S FINE THAT THEY DIDN'T AT ALL. /lie

Old art posting time! This was a concept for an Rage-form esque formchange for Vivian i cooked up last year revolving around grand magic! The general premise is that the user gains access to a plethora of high level magic attacks (Ex. megaflare, meteor) at the cost of your health bar instead of your magic bar!

#bee draws #kingdom hearts #Keykid oc #KHUX oc #KHUX #kingdom hearts union cross #kh #this may be one of my favorite pieces ive ever made btw. no idea why i never posted it #anyways i actually meant to do two more of these (Thunder and Blizzard respectively) and name the forms after the big three FF summons #but i never got around to it #besides that though this piece was one big ploy to explain battle damage on vivi's design during the fall of daybreak town #Vivi #keykid
