alr so i tried to turn the hm 2023 hhg designs into modern human dudes bc i need them for my mall cop au but OMG I CANT TAKE THEM SERIOUSLY WHO DECIDED THEY WOULD LOOK LIKE THAT!!! apologies if these designs are garbage, i tried 😭😭😭

(i do not consider these guys the same characters as the ones from the rides, the comics, or the 2003 movies btw, theyre too different in shape/facial language to be the same guys, end of discussion)

anyways yeahh uh in my au these sillies live together in the same apartment complex as bruce, ben, constance, the mariner, and some other haunts that im gonna turn into human designs later. they play d&d with kent sometimes and their car keeps breaking down (hence the whole hitchhiking thing)

-phineas probably does business or finance or something that makes him need to travel a lot (he still lives w ezra and gus because living alone in your mid 50s/60s is lonely, and honestly good for him)

-this ezra looks like a fashion guy or smthn, idk he fancy ill figure it out later. he doesnt look like spamton in this movie and it makes me sad

-gus is their roommate who has been to prison multiple times and cant hold down a job. they keep him around because they love him and he "mysteriously conjures" free tickets to local plays a lot

(i will give phineas and ezra their hats + phineas his coat back i promise but i needed a ref of their hair/casual attire, so no hats/coats just yet)

heres the ref i used btw (i brightened it in app im too lazy to export it tho)

#CHARACTER DESIGN IS HARD NO OFFENSE BUT DID YOU EVEN TRY GUYS??? #I WAS BEING SILLY ON PURPOSE BUT THOSE DESIGNS WER MADE TO BE TAKEN SERIOUSLY #THEY WENT THROUGH MULTIPLE LAYERS OF REDESIGN AND FIXES AND ADJUSTMENTS #AND THATS WHAT THEY COME UP WITH??? REALLY???? #ik they were probably just trying to be original with their designs cuz hm has such an art based fandom but cmon they need to at least be #recogniseable as the hhg #my baby boy ezra looks like someone sucked his soul out through his ear with a bendy straw #gus is a damn demon straight from hell #and dont even get me STARTED on phineas #why does he look like that??? #i get that you were going for semi realistic cartoonish proportions #but ffs why does he look like a poorly edited copypasta image #phineas on the ride gives off kooky and silly and mischievous vibes #this guy is gonna steal my shoes and my feet and my ankles and my shins and leave me bleeding on rhe side of the road!!!! #ok sorry for the rant #uh tl:dr hhg 2023 designs bad disney got too silly #haunted mansion 2023 #disney haunted mansion #haunted mansion #haunted mansion movie #hitchhiking ghosts #the hitchhiking ghosts #phineas the traveler #ezra the skeleton #gus the prisoner #mall cop au #haunted mansion au

portrait of stede bonnet, circa 1716

#idk how to feel about this. i like it but also the chair is so fucked up looking #the proportions seem off even though i traced it directly off a stock image??? idk. #i didn’t know how to incorporate my tumblr in there like i normally do so i just put it as the artists signature #idk if that’s what artist signatures in the 1700s looked like but yk. whatever #anyways he’s posing in front of one of those school picture backgrounds. you know the one. #rambles #my art #ofmd #our flag means death #stede bonnet #ofmd art

I've found that, when interacting with others (or myself), it's useful to consider the lessons I'd want to teach a growing child.

If a child makes a mistake, I wouldn't want them to feel shame. I wouldn't yell at them, humiliate them, or in any way indicate to them that their mistake is a reflection of their worth or of who they are as a person.

Instead, I'd want them to associate the process with love and joy. If they say something that hurts someone's feelings, or otherwise ostracizes someone in some way, I'd compassionately explain to them. Ideally, they'd walk away knowing why they said / did it in the first place, how to handle similar situations in the future, and would accept the consequences (e.g. if a friend no longer wanted to hang out with them).

While the consequences may sometimes be painful, I'd do my best to instill in them that mistakes are human and natural, and that the process of learning from these mistakes is an opportunity to improve connections with others and express love.

I have a tendency towards excessive guilt. Memories in which I've said / done something ignorant or hurtful are infused with this guilt and shame- but ideally, I'd feel a sense of love and peace, and perhaps happiness, when looking back on them. Because they were moments of growth, moments I learned how to be more compassionate (even if the actual learning came years later).

So I'll put this out into the void:

When you make a mistake, that is not a reflection of you as a person. It is a moment in time, a moment which was informed by your past experiences. Humans are not static labels, or monsters in an RPG game. We are social creatures who live and learn and react and grow and experience and love. Be gentle with yourself and move forward knowing you're doing so in accordance with your values.

#parenting #internet culture #self compassion #i'd also want to teach them critical thought of course - there are varying ideas of what constitutes mistakes or ignorance or harm #and that's a messy subject which is often a challenge to teach and is beyond the scope of this post but it's important #to avoid being subject to manipulation or becoming reactionary #but anyways #to clarify something in the tags here: it's okay of course to feel bad. that's a normal response. but it's not necessary. and a culture of #shaming people for their mistakes isn't helpful in the same ways it isn't helpful to do that to a child. people become defensive and/or #self-hating. divisive and reactionary and more easily manipulated. fearful and ashamed and avoidant. afraid of disagreements or of trying #anything new. increased all-or-nothing thinking and blowing things out of proportion. it just doesn't help in the long run #sometimes when someone says something i want to express hatred and mockery towards; i think of my trans friend who's full of light and love #and compassion. who came from a smaller more conservative community and used to have some of those same stances (and may still hold some of #those feelings/anxieties). and i remember that i can be firm on my boundaries and spread love and acceptance and safety *without* spewing #vitriol at anyone who makes even a minor mistake. i want people who were impacted by oppression and bias to have space to grow and #find safe communities and be able to think for themselves. i dont want to push them away or be another person in their life screaming at #them. there's always a person behind the screen. #like that doesnt mean i have to interact with them. in fact in most cases it's better to step away. and there are still unsafe people out #there- but yelling at them won't do any good either. saw a tip to focus on the people you want to help rather than the opposition #and that's been super helpful for me

aww yeah babey now this is how you have FUN [draws characters standing neutrally side by side in a line]

oh boy the depression hole is deep and it is muddy

hahaha I fell into the classic trap! overidentify with your job and considering leaving it will trigger an existential crisis!!!!

#red said #i think it's really fucking happening #i got lunch with my work bff yesterday. she's seriously looking for her next thing. #2 other people in our 9 man team have told me in confidence they're looking elsewhere as well #the work bff is a team manager and she's like yeah I'm helping everyone buff up their CVs and think about what they want #and i. do not think my boss is coming back. #she's extended her mat leave by 2 months already. i think she stepped away and realised. rightly. there's more to life than this shit. #it's not that the organisation is downsizing or any of us are in danger of redundancy #but the vibe has changed big time. it's so much more corporate and less interested in lived experience. #i think the proportion of people in senior management who have even second hand experience with homelessness is shrinking #like the last time our CEO did frontline work was like 1990. and they're expanding the management team constantly #but they're all outside hires and not people who've done frontline or community work. they're the career charity worker types. #the only things keeping me are. i want to at least get to that initial union open meeting and get the ball rolling enough #that it might have a cat's chance in hell of happening without me #and i want to get gears turning in the EDI group to get a commitment a) to acknowledge that we have a whiteness problem #and b) i want to use the funding for LGBTQ inclusion work to kickstart a project where we convene a cross-sector working group #maybe quarterly. where people working in homelessness and social support can discuss best practise for trans inclusivity #in one of the sectors where trans people are most disadvantaged in seeking support #but like if i can get movement on those things I'm fucking gone. cause the bits of my job that are my actual job? #i am getting nothing out of it now

He is, unfortunately, very cute (Patreon)

#Doodles #Deltarune #Spamton #Marketable... #Some Animal Crossingesque style doodles #I think I just wanted to draw him in kinda chibi proportions and round hands?? I think it was mostly the round hands lol I dunno #He does look very cute #I literally can't even imagine him as a Villager #Oh no wait what if he lived in the town dump haha ouq Just sets up a tent and tries to resell you stuff you've dropped #I'm making myself sad ah #Well if it's any comfort I imagined those chairs to be like the ones on the island in New Leaf - island getaway! #Plenty of bugs to sell for whole a mess of bells! He'll do fine #I dunno how it would work with the code but I feel like his audio files would last longer than the text box would imply lol #He looks so chumby in that second one lol #And then a laugh animation ♪ Him doing various emotes just randomly when you see him at the corner of your screen #Especially laughing to him self tho and with that funny noise #Oh yeah and I intentionally didn't give him any flyaways here! Since I was trying to imagine how he'd look in 3D haha #Smooth polygons

fucked up and singlehandedly cost my group a kudos fight in front of someone i respect (this will have a negligible impact on their day but i will forever be haunted by their first impresson of me being ruined)

#toontown #ttcc #you know that horrible clawing feeling you get when you want more than anything not to talk about something that happened to you but you #physically can't do anything *but* bring it up so you talk about it in the hopes of. something. but you don't know if the something you're #hoping for is reassurance or radio silence and you don't know if finding out would make getting what you want better or exponentially worse #if anyone's seen that one txwatson tiktok about hearing the wallpaper it's. not that but pretty similar. #at this point i'm just throwing in something i couldn't quite articulate before i hit post but. it's like a weird fear of apologising Wrong #because i fear the effort it would take to apologise properly would make the apology feel desperate or insincere #coupled with me not knowing if the guilt i feel is proportional to the guilt the people i 'wronged' would want me to feel #which is compounded since the way i 'wronged' them was messing up a boss battle in a video game. but also us losing was Entirely my fault #and i don't know at what point an apology would become like. pressuring them to say they forgive me even if that's not my goal #does this make sense? is it hypocritical to ask if my ramblings make sense when my worries are entirely about being too much? #*is* there a way to assuage those kinds of worries without being insincere #either by accident or on purpose #is 'being insincere on purpose' even a thing you *can* do? #if i bring up why i struggle with this does that become manipulation? even though i'm asking in good faith? #did not expect to be pondering the ethics of guilt after failing my team in a boss fight when i woke up today

Had a dream about The Owl House where I was Luz and somehow got the ability to turn into a titan. Also I was CONVINCED that Belos had like. Possessed or corrupted a plant in the front yard, but no one believed me.

#unclear if those were the same dream #more accurately i think there was a different belos plant before and the new plant was a from a seed from that #the main evidence i had was that the plant had a paper message on it that was positive but creepy directed toward hunter #also there was a plant next to it that was somehow connected to hunter idk #about the titan part i have no idea if luz got into some magic stuff or was secretly a titan all along somehow or what #i tried to get king to teach me about titan roars but the dream didn't get that far #i don't even remember what order the two parts happened in or if i was luz in the plant dream #original #also the luz-titan kept her size and proportions #furry jokes were made #but i do not remember them
