ONE THING THAT FUCKING KILLS ME ABOUT IVAN AND TILL SINGING MY CLEMANTIS THAT I'M NOT SEEING ANYONE POINT OUT??

IN THE ORIGINAL MY CLEMANTIS MIZI AND SUA SING THE FINAL “MY CLEMANTIS” TOGETHER BUT IN TILL AND IVAN’S VERSION IVAN SINGS IT ALONE???

You know. Because. Unrequited Feelings and All.

THE FACT THAT HE SINGS THAT LINE AFTER SINGING "Oh my Clemantis, please stay by my side"

TILL DOESN'T EVEN SEEM TO HUM THE LAST PART WITH IVAN, NOR DOES HE SING THE LAST LINE WITH HIM LIKE MIZI AND SUA DO TOGETHER. HE FUCKING DOESN'T STAY BY IVAN'S SIDE

ALSO. IVAN'S VOICE TREMORING AT THE VERY END OF HIM SAYING THE FINAL "CLEMANTIS"

I FUCKING HATE IT HERE

#alien stage #till alien stage #ivan alien stage #ivantill #alnst #I HATE IT #I HATE IT HERE #I HATE UNREQUITED LOVE #YES MY BLOG HAS BEEN DEAD FOR SO LONG AND I'M ALIVE AGAIN TO ALNST POST SHUT UP #I'M JUST IN PAIN OKAY #IVAN WHY DO YOU KEEP DOING THIS TO ME MAN #I HOPE HE DIES IN ROUND 6 /J

it was always a strange dichotomy. every middle school classmate i had told me i'd be a millionaire when i grew up, a Famouse Artisté. it's easy enough to imagine as a teen, i suppose: skill equals fame equals money. i was doubtful about this prophecy, not because i wasn't confident in my ability to draw, but because it was hard to imagine a world where i'd be paid for it.

it was an ice breaker game at summer camp. horrible one, really - everyone in a group were given a character profile. now we had to imagine that it was the zombie apocalypse, and the helicopter to safety was two seats short and we had argue why we deserved a spot. the character i got was an asshole doctor of some kind. i don't remember if i argued my way into the helicopter or not, but i do remember the feeling that's been hanging over me my entire life - if the apocalypse happens right now, i have nothing to contribute.

there's something really painful about it. i have cultivated a skill for my whole life, i can make art and tell stories that are entirely unique to me, there is no way to get someone else to create in the exact same way i can, and yet - i've contributed more to capitalist society by sitting in an empty hotel reception for eight hours a day.

which made me develop anxiety, to boot.

i illustrated two children's books. they're some of my best work. the contract i signed was industry standard and the indie author who had hired me was incredibly kind... but even after stock sold out i had earnt little more than some pocket change.

in high school we had an outing to dig our own snow caves that we would spend the night in. in teams, thankfully. i have so little physical strength to speak of, most i could do to help was clear away the snow rubble and toss it outside. i know, i know, my classmates reassured me it was an important job to do, i was an invaluable member of the group, sure - but it's that feeling, you know?

what would my task be in the communist solarpunk commune?

a person cannot be useless. it's a human being. they just exist, no ifs and buts about it. one can only be useless in the eyes of an ableist, capitalist society that sees no value in being alive beyond production and profit.

sometimes i receive messages from internet strangers to tell me something i said - often several years ago - was helpful to them. maybe it was a throwaway comment on a forum. maybe it was replying to a question they could've googled the answer to. maybe it was an encouraging reply to someone's artwork. turns out it mattered to someone. huh.

of course you can learn new skills. i have learnt plenty over the years! i have also learnt that there are limitations to what i can do. that some of the obstacles i face are not in fact obstacles everyone faces. it's not that i can't break tasks into smaller steps, it's more that half of those steps are going to be "rinse your hands because you Touched a Thing and now you're going to have to touch Another Thing." i wonder if that's adding to my cognitive load or something.

i was never raised to be a man, so by all accounts i do not understand why i'm so haunted by the spectre of toxic masculinity - what would i do if i was a medieval peasant and a war broke out? what if i was in a pre-historic hunter gatherer society and i was expected to hunt? what if i was a humble farm boy discovering the sword of the chosen one and the world depended on my non-existing courage to face certain death?

look, it's stupid. these are not scenarios i will find myself in. besides, pre-historic humans depended on community and taking care of each other. that's how we survive.

i'm not useless and i decided to make peace with being useless anyway.

we're surrounded by digital clocks. we can't really escape them. do we need watchmakers? would they save me a spot in the zombie apocalypse helicopter? no, don't answer that. i'm just happy i found something that requires a light touch and an observant eye.

#too long for twitter #I AM NOT ASKING FOR ADVICE I AM JUST MUSING AND WRITING A BLOG POST FOR THE JOY OF WRITING BLOG POSTS #not mentioned: the bachelors degree in art history i took to procrastinate with my life.#i would love to work as an illustrator still. if the opportunity to do so comfortably comes along i will take it #but im also happy to pursue my passion in my free time as something that belongs to me #number one question im asked whenever i tell someone i go to watchmaker school is 'BUT DO YOU STILL DRAW??'#it's like asking if i still breathe. yes! i still do the thing that makes me feel alive #it's just. we live in a world that's hostile to Live Comfortably and Pursue Creative Passions at the same time #and a society that can be so largely dismissive of art sometimes; all the while consuming it en masse #ah you probably get it. you dont need me to tell you

Sparing a moment from BG3 to think about how nerve-wracking it must have been for Faramir to turn back and ride towards five Ringwraiths. I mean, yes, it was an incredibly cool thing to do, but also an incredibly frightening thing to do.

And it's not just an extrapolation—Pippin can tell he's been through the terror wringer and mastered it, just as one of a crowd seeing Faramir go by.

I think it's pretty important to his character that it's not that his specialness lies in not feeling the things anyone else would feel, tbh. I've argued before that he pretty clearly is tempted by the Ring in TTT for a moment, and his decision not to take it is bolstered by his previous promise (even though he didn't know he was talking about the One Ring when he made it). He's not uniquely immune and he takes care to keep it away from himself to avoid further temptation.

And he is scared of the Ringwraiths. Very scared, in fact. He just couldn't do what he felt he had to do without clawing his way through the terror and coming around the other side. And I do think that's a lot more impressive.

#he also gets angry at denethor—like. yes. they're weird númenóreans with weird númenórean powers. but there's something so intensely human #about the ways in which their relationship gets increasingly fraught on both sides under the strain of a ceaseless existential war #in fact for me a lot of what draws me to the most is that there's this very human dramatically alive quality about their dynamic #in some ways more than any other family relationship in the book #yet by the time faramir leaves he's overcome his temper and he only wants denethor at his side when he's dying :(#and doesn't breathe a word about any of it afterwards #so i think it's a really consistent note in his characterization #anghraine babbles #legendarium blogging #faramir #jewel of the seashore #húrinionath

Personally I find it really funny that based on what the twins said in the Book 2 finale re: having to tell their mom about what happened to Unalaq, it's literally canon that Unalaq's wife a) exists, b) is alive, and c) is just chilling in the Northern Water Tribe

She took one look at all the spirit fuckery her husband was getting up to and went "Well that's none of my business" and honestly I respect that

#oh and when I say spirit fuckery I mean it in both the literal and metaphorical sense. blame kat's latest raava and vaatu fic #yeah I'm just gonna start posting random LoK opinions on here now. this blog's been dead long enough #not really an incorrect quotes girly anymore sorry #not even a girl anymore. but you know #most of my red lotus and oc posting will remain on my personal blog though bc no one wants to see that #anyway. yes. Unalaq's wife. when I say the avatar franchise has a mom problem this is exactly what I mean #80% of characters don't have a mom. the moms that are alive either have little to no screen time or mentions #or they're basically Schroedinger's mom in the sense that they exist but not really #the exceptions being like. pema and suyin. and maybe senna though she also has very little screentime #my point is. the twins are younger than korra. I know avatarverse has a precedent for putting kids on the throne. looking at you zuko #but really we should have gotten unalaq's wife as chief of the nwt #introduced her in book 3 during the lead up to p'li's prison break #but that's just my objectively correct opinion #northern water tribe chief raspberry when #(according to avatar wiki her name is malina so I've been calling her raspberry in my head ever since I found out #malina means raspberry in russian that's why. probably in a bunch of other slavic languages too idk I'm not an expert #and she shares a name with katara and sokka's weird white stepmom from the comics which no sane person considers canon. so that's fun)#the legend of korra #unalaq

just a couple of creepy 18th-century innkeepers talking shop!

[featuring @borisyvain's lazarus mcclure and my own james webster]

#em draws stuff #oc time again hehe #haunted by your hand #the gambler: james webster #really I should start having an 'other people's characters' tag again as well...#so yes I have thought about these two being Brothers In Homosexual Haunted Murderhotel for long enough that a drawing happened #I do not know Where they are in this image (esp. as I have aged james up by some 30ish years so as to be able to Interact with mr mcclure)#(which is why she's looking a bit mellower than usual and also wearing teal... Character Development which as of regular hbyh has not #yet come to pass.....)#eh who knows maybe james went to ireland. she can have a little a go to ireland hang out with other horrible people as a treat #she deserves a little treat for making it to the 1780s-1790s (no one thought she was making it of the 1760s alive I am sure)#surprisingly this was a delightful refresher as I have been in a state of artblock/only interested in drawing things I can't work on in #public spaces lately! but this came together in barely two hours (admittedly after four days of staring at pictures of mr mcclure)#anyway if you read this far you should all go look at jory's blog his characters are SO cool and well-researched #james will someday be more well-researched than she currently is but that will be after I get around to reading 'the english pub 1500-1830'#which I found in the library and was so brave and strong and Did Not check out so as to actually maybe get schoolwork done

Ok LISTEN- May or may not have made another AU in the past few months.

In my defense, it was meant to be a private AU just for mutuals or friends to see and stuff and then I went down a rabbit hole and now it consumed my thoughts (⊙_⊙;)

At first I didn't wanna overwhelm myself with more than 1 AU but having 2 isn't super bad.

I decided I wanted to introduce this AU to tumblr now after some thinking- luckily I made some doodles and comics so it won't take me like 2 months to post anything again ;;

#text #not exactly art so not gonna tag it as such xd #sorry strays au but ive been occupied #also finally enabled anon but go easy guys >>#expect a post about it tomorrow actually!#AAaaugh im a bit nervous putting it out there but i need to keep this blog alive #some mutuals know about this au already so ye

Happy 45th birthday to our favourite hunter!

(Yes that is the same bee blanket)

(ID under cut)

[Image ID: a cartoon-style drawing of Dean Winchester, wrapped in a yellow bee patterned blanket and a bi flag blanket and surrounded by genderless grey people hugging him. One of them is smooching him through the blanket. A few more people are approaching, all enthusiastic, one holding up a blue and green striped blanket. Dean looks puzzled and is blushing. There are lovehearts in the air around him.

The image is watermarked "@aerialworms" /end ID]

#spn #supernatural #supernatural fanart #dean winchester #deansbirthdaybash #fanart #yes this is a repost from like a year ago but i really like it! i think it's cute!#and my hands are still killing me and i don't think many people actually saw the original cause it was added onto a poll post #after the voting was done #this blog is just for me to show people my art #so you will see the things i made! and you will (hopefully) like it!#also i can't believe that man is 45 now #still alive and kicking and smooching his angel husband #good for him :)

This one's for everyone: I know all you mice love your rock, but are there any other kinds of music the four of you also listen to?

Vinnie: While nothing beats rock ('cept for scissors--) I like to indulge in a little heavy mental, the dub of step (Charley called it something like that--), and hard trance! Anything with a heavy beat I can just get fckin' lost in, y'know? I want my ribs rattling!

Throttle: Ahh, well, if I had to pick? I'd say power metal. It's great to listen to when you're trying to save the world. And the guitar riffs? Nothing compares. When I want something lighter....Grunge...Charley...might have turned me on to Country recently. But you didn't hear that from me.

Modo: I really enjoy listenin' to power ballads! Charley got me interested in them when she said they reminded her of me. Emotional but strong, is what she said...it was really sweet. When I'm out fishing, I like a nice lofi playlist. I keep the volume pretty low so I can enjoy the sounds of nature...or hear if Limburger is up to no good.

Charley: If you couldn't tell by now, I listen to anything and everything! If it wasn't for me, the boys wouldn't have ANY musical variety in their lives! Still haven't gotten them to appreciate pure classical music but...I'm weaning them into it with metal versions of my favorites!

I don't do cross promotion a lot, but I'll make an exception this time.

I would appreciate it if you lads could share my latest Instagram post. I'm seeing a lot of anti Israeli/antisemitic sentiments online, and I feel like the world needs a reminder we're human.

In the link, are a few war time sketches I made during this insane time.
