the thing about caring about ableism and fighting for disability rights, is that you can't center it about just your disabilities. i'm not d/Deaf. i still care whether an event has sign interpreters. i don't have photosensitive epilepsy. i still think that strobing lights are 99% of the time totally unnecessary and serve as a needless barrier to photosensitive people. i can transfer to a toilet mostly independently. i still think that public accessible bathrooms should have lifts and adult changing tables in them. you can't stop your disability activism where it stops benefitting you. that's not activism. that's selfishness

"New Yorkers bite more people than sharks annually" is an excellent example of how statistics can be misleading. Like yeah no shit, do you have any idea how rare it is to even encounter a shark in the wild? They're not exactly urban animals. I'm pretty damn sure that if sharks were living in big cities like pigeons, just strolling down the streets looking for food scraps, you'd see a lot more news stories about New Yorkers biting them.

woah its a coloured animatic of sorts spooky!

ramblings and process etc;

I wanted to draw fluffy scenes because... yeah. So was looking for a suitable song for this. Honourable mentions was "Last Pale Light in the West", which fits really well... then I thought about this song

The core of this whole idea is the shot of Arthur riding home after the torture and falling into the hands of the gang :)

my notes:

apparently it could not be just greyscale.

Also built up a ridiculously large file just for figuring out colors... I think its fun to look at

the one character design for little arthur:

very confused about "the quiet are restless" section because my original vision was this:

oh yes the first vision board - readable (subjective) from top to bottom, left to right.... with some exceptions. thing that didn't make it was arthur actually replaced by a strung up deer in the basement.

trying to figure out lineart style that might work...

then went with no lines instead, ha hahhahahah

and here's a shot that I kind of missed. Would have had arthur walking on the right, with smoke trailing behind him - and the two graves in the left panel. This is in "the cradle is burning" section

This video was edited in shotcut with the whole video split between 15 CSP files of about 10 seconds each to keep the animation layers from getting too bulky and the whole thing from crashing.

Started this on Jun 20th, now it's July 14th :0

look at him go

being a queer person who really likes a m/f ship blows because the minute you step outside your painstakingly curated circle of t4t bisexuals you find out all the straight people are out here drawing your faves like this

every time i get into a new Thing i find a man from it that is objectively a horrible person that everyone rightfully hates and no matter how hard i try to fight it my brain latches on to him like a traumatized leech looking for a coping mechanism but only finding one piece of exposed skin to latch onto and it just so happens to be the buttcrack of the Thing in question

I think it’s funny when a fictional dude is kinda goofy or naive or not into academics, and people start playing that up a little for comedy or angst or sex reasons in fic and you’re like “yeah, okay, this shift makes sense for the kind of story they’re writing and it still tracks,” but eventually you start seeing versions where he’s congenitally incapable of petty negative emotions and seems like he’s been failed beyond plausibility by whatever school system exists in his world. And it’s kind of like looking at a modern-day pug.

the fraxus animatic's true ending (canon) (trust me I was there it just happened off screen) (they made out sloppy style after this) ((also speedpaint under the cut))

im incredibly conflicted by the phrase ‘the question is not who will let me but who will stop me’ because on one hand its so fucking raw and powerful but on the other hand it’s derived from ayn rand but on yet another hand the first and primary time ive ever seen it was on a picture of a lawnmower flying through the sky which is the perfect level of absurd and nonsensical that would piss ayn rand off

i really enjoy that i’m experiencing dashcon 2 in the same way that my forefathers experienced the original dashcon: though sporadic bursts in chaotic photos. i have no damn clue what’s going on except the ball pit is tiny, strange aeons won the duel and ousted the muppet joker, there was a live in person kung pow penis, and someone cosplayed the children’s hospital
