Eve, Kate, Mark and Rex! Nailing some ideas down on how I wanna draw them in the future, and enjoying messing with their designs like usual! Not a fix-it whatsoever just fun + ref for the future! I cannot do realistic styles so translating them into something I can do while still being recognizable is peak. I will mess with Rex's suit more. Trust. I Kate so much now. Look at her <333333
#the brainrotsreal's art tag ✧˖°:*♡#invincible fanart#invincible#mark grayson#digital art#fanart#procreate art#rex splode#duplikate#atom eve#eve wilkins#RAMBLE TIMEEEEEEEEEEEE#MARK: again he's got his mother's pearl earrings as a winky wink to batman reference + fun inkling that he is ALSO his mom's son#MARK: adding to the whole difference of civvie/hero persona he's a bit more miserable looking and anxious w/o the suit while emotional in i#but also means he's eager and confident when he does think he knows what he's doing. but is not as confident outside of it.#heroism is his chance to prove his worth in his eyes even after Dad Realization because know he has to prove he ISNT his Dad.#Basically Invincible will always need to prove himself but he doesn't know how to do that as Mark Grayson. so gold = joy/confidence#stays on Invincible. but not mark#REX: easy peezy a spiky hair style to wink more at his passionate and louder personality as well as wink to the explosion thing#REX: gold earrings and shoulders exposed as civvie because i know in my soul he WOULD. like i cant even explain he told me himself.#goggle change to lean more into the style change! pupil-less design!! and gold eyes cause he got experimented on/powers ingrained.#the dangling bit from the goggles screams fighter and since he does ALSO need to fight it makes sense#KATE: new haircut cause i cant stand her normal one istg. ugh. but keeping the same vibe! leaning more into ben 10 type of elements since#numbers ARE a point of her design AND power so it was only fitting! i love her suit so much#NOWWWWW since she is A REAL FIGHTER like her only thing is multiplying still mean she knows how to throw a punch and MOVE i figure#she works out a ton and has a more flexible sporty fit going on so she's got a hoodie crop top. ready to jog at all times.#once in my brain she's the vague sorta raven of the group (more isolated and withdrawn since she doesn't rlly interact with anyone)#added black made SENSEEEEE#EVEEE: easiest to do because she is starfire of the group so i got possessed! honestly kept all her colors except tried to move around the#logo a bit more and take slight inspo from Justice league Green lantern's design + tweak the logo cause i realized i hate it KSDKS

i know this is a long haul video, but it's also an extremely good breakdown of the myth of self-sustainability homesteading and how you should never believe everything you see online or in books. also a little bit about how joel salatin suck ass, actually.
this shit is not easy and it doesn't make money. i am only allowed to do this because my spouse is a software engineer in the video game industry. don't fall for the promise of being able to pay your way via a small farm. the only thing small-scale homesteading gives you is a sense of accomplishment, a connection to your food, and at least one joint injury that you will need to go to physical therapy for. i will never talk anyone out of wanting to grow their own food, because i think it's an extremely good and important thing to do, but i will always encourage you to do it within your means with a realistic vision of that future.
#ag talk#also why i think rabbits are good for family meat production#they are very inexpensive compared to other livestock#they still have a cost! but it's less than even chickens and they don't need a ton of space to live in like chickens do#it's also so nice to hear from a homesteader who isn't a religious vaguely right-wing traditional family values guy#those are...shockingly few and far between online :/#i stopped watching most homesteading youtubers because of that#it was a little too christian and a little too prosperity doctrine even when religion wasn't really spoken about much#the way they talk about self-sustainability really rubbed me the wrong way as someone raised in an extremely culty fundie denomination#i had a similar journey to morgan here with the discovering people like joel salatin and justin rhodes#and being very inspired and learning a lot from them. they were valuable to me#but now i know that a lot of it is just....not how it works

🦃 morning / afternoon / evening!
Scarian is the classic <3 ive only written them once for a friend and it took me… months… got stuck on one scene and avoided it for ages (and then got into taurtis x grian but that’s another story)
Cub and Scar being brotherly and inseparable is soo <3333 everything to me. Have you read “closer to another shore”? Oh my god. Changed my life. And scar and Cub within that book… absolute peak. Devoured it twice over and once more on top of that. Very much recommend if you want to tear your own heart out and crush grian like a bug!
ooo! I'll have to give that one a lookie!
I have this whole scale AU for Scarian that I'll write one day. it's bound to be my hardst work yet (yeah including the historial research and mapping nightmare that is Dealing Despair), because Splinter is one of those fics you have to plan every single scene out to make it all come together in the end.
My goal with Splinter) whenever I get around to writing it, it is to have like a fraction of coolness Birrdie's as above, so below has?? It's still one of my favorite fics of all time and I strive to write an AU like that one day. Splinter isnt the same thing? it's like a past life kind of thing, but the part im trying to emulate from aasb is the "oh something is happening here...I am scared of it" vibe.
Eitherway, if you want a good Grian fic (with some Scarian) THATS the fic. This is the fic I give to all my friends new to the fandom/to fanfiction. I shove aasb and Dirges in the Dark at them because those are the two fanfics I want on my shelf YESTERDAY. Like physical copies. (I am working on that actually....)
OKAY I'VE YAPPED ENOUGH! Time to clock in for the writing shift today <3
#sauce yaps#fic recs#friend fics#it's crazy I can say that now because I'd like to say Kit is one of my best friends now...#and to be moots with Birrdie still kind of has me in awe?#I'm yapping in the tags with the small prayer they wont see me in here being weird about it#but like I scrolled back pretty far in my bookmarks to find those fic links really quick#and the amount of bookmarks I have from people im FRIENDS WITH NOW???#And I didn't even realize????#like there worm stuff in there from over a year ago#I got theo stuff in there as if Theo and I aren't on the verge of collabing on a peice???#It's so weird to me I do not feel like im good enough to be their friend but here I am#so I feed them snippets and funny haha jokes and keep my place like the little rat man I am#like I'm out here putting my soul into my work and I dont think I'll be anywhere NEAR my friends skill#not any time soon at least#I think the only thing I have going for me is my inhuman ability to grind out a shit ton of work in a short time period#like yall don't really see it because moe five is taking me so long (happy two months tomorrow ahaha)#but I wrote unsportsmanlike conduct in 7 days#two of those days were just editing and adding final touches#by the time I started unsportsmanlike conduct I had the hockey au for only two weeks#like I cannot turn off my brain and ALL I think about is my stories and what I can do with them#the only way to turn the brain off is to like bake or something because going on walks helps me think better#I sit in vc with the wife and the homies and I yap NON STOP about the fics I don't get a break from them#the notes app is insane and so is the discord and the hell that is my many google docs#and then I pop over to see how kits doing and kit is like “look how organized all my stuff is!” and I wanna throw a brick across the US aga#/aff#because like I would kill to be the that organized.. I also just love kit's brain but thats a different thing entierly#if yall could see the amount of sticky notes on my desk#I have to color coordinate the au and there are BOOKS of notes stacked up because I need to outline physically or I cant outline at all

how i was drawing horses when i was 4yo, and how i draw them now (i'm 27)
thought all my childhood drawings were gone but i was wrong! i've found some of them and i'm still giggling looking at all the goofy horses. it was pretty much all i was drawing back then
i guess it took me 23 years to draw them like i do now whoops
#this big ass journey is always in my mind when some people expect me to give some kind of sercet advice so they could be good at drawing#like right after they hear it#it's not gonna happen. it takes time to gain skills. even if u know a fuck ton of “lifehacks” or whatever#u still need time to actually learn how to be good at something#oh and when people tell me drawing is easy as fuck for me bc im natually talanted... like.... are u serious...#yes it's kind of easy now. easier than before at least. u know why?#bc of many years of ripping apart my works and crying and beating myself and hating everything bc “i'm not good enough”#many years of pain in my wrists. many years of learning everything. observing. and millions of mistakes.#anyway...#barghestland#art#artists on tumblr

Frankly homophobic that insurance thinks I’m not qualified for the pre-exposure rabies vaccine. >:(
#it’s less that I’m scared of getting rabies and more that I’m mad I can’t safely feed a baby skunk#bc like. little guy needed electrolytes so bad. but even my old supervisor said to only touch him through like three layers#and the fact that she’s seen me work with tons of animals and still said that meant I had to take her seriously#gotta follow best practice and stuff. for everyone’s sake.#I just hope his mom will come get him soon. he’s really weak :(#adventures in wildlife rehab#(-adjacent at least)

theres an extremely bopping jazz dance animation going around (if you havent seen it then i would be surprised) and its getting me really in the mood to do some dance animations... i dont think ive touched animation for like. 3 years now. but the HUNGER.... i technically have dozens of ideas for tfs dancing to my favorite songs - most of them megop, obviously, but some driftrod and some jazzprowl... for obvious reasons im kind of thinking about a jazzprowl dance - less jazz dancing and more prowl dancing FOR jazz (again with the prowl-chasing-jazz thing that im obsessing over rn)...... but we'll see askldjaslkdj
#citrus rambles#jazzprowl mention#im just hungry for close quarters dancing#ive actually been fairly proactive in making some sketches#i HAVE rough sketches done for a megop mafia one and for a tarnma meangirls one#im just uh. way too lazy to actully synch them to the music they go with kalsjdklajds#also like. at this point the style is soooo old i really need to remake them...#if i end up doing this it will probably take a while. im not HUGE on animating (obviously) and it takes a metric fuck-ton of time to...#...finish ANY sort of progress with animations - and i really just DONT have time like that to be making full animations#im thinking if i just keep it really sketch-like and try to keep the images on beat... it should be fine aksljlksadj#things dont have to be perfect they just have to be done!!! at least thats what i keep telling myself ksajdkasjdlkdsaj#anyways. ive got other things in mind for this weekend - im still deciding on which shockblurr memes i want to sear everyones eyes with#so maybe next weekend i can start actually working on some dance animations#i'll have to do some choreography#and then decide what angles and shots i want to have on them... im very visual but sometimes even i can get a little stuck on those things

fantasy novel wip has officially crossed the 10k mark since i started the new draft with the new outline last month. gotten less writing done than i would have wished but when i am able to sit down to write i'm getting a lot more done than i had previously.
#also this scene i'm about to wrap up had spanned two and a half chapters at this point#whereas in previous drafts this was like. just my first chapter or even a part of my first chapter#basically when i redid my plot outline (or rather actually made a plot outline)#i was able to add in so much metaphorical meat that gave me so much more to work with regarding the characters and the setting#that this opening bit... is actually settin stuff up for once. like theres actually stuff the characters can and should do here finally!#i dont know if that makes sense to anyone whos not a writer (or even people who are lol)#i still have a ton of personal worldbuilding to do to flesh out the story in my head so i have enough to work with as i continue to write#(is this setting in a monarchy? an oligarchy? what does the average person know about X or Y?)#but like. most days i sit down to write and im keeping my daily goal at just 400 words#and most days im cranking out at least 800 because i actually know how to continue after each paragraph!#its fun im in the writing is fun phase#remind me of this when i get another 'money is lace' idea and have to stop writing a week to figure that out#(money is still lace i love being indulgent to weird ideas)#gravitas#gravitas wip#i need a wip tag for this

Adrien really does need to crash out and go full anti villain at this point.
#Adrien is so “Girl Character” coded... it's insane how he gets these themes about agency I've only really seen for female characters#People say there are seeds planted for Adrien to turn into a anti villain... but those aren't put there intentionally#Cuz if they were then Adriens character would be alot more consistent throughout the seasons#I mean they could still use those scenes as a set-up for Adriens anti villain arc#even if they weren't intentionally created for that purpose#but I dont see this kind of arc happening#not because of some in universe reason#this idea can work because Adrien has been Marinette's partner since the beginning.#He knows her strengths and weaknesses and can plan around those.#i just don't see them giving Adrien anything that cool bc they would need alot of spine#to change a dynamic that has garnered the show a ton of praise#anyway...

THAT'S 60,000 WORDS LET'S FUCKING GOOOOOOOOO!!




#RAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH#I might write a little bit more this weekend we'll see cause I may be busy#current status on chapter two: beginning portion edited and good#still working on editing the smut and#I don't know if it's just taking forever or if I added way too much to the scene where you jerk aki off#because why am I still working on that segment#you haven't even slurped on it yet#editing the rest of the smut is sure too take just as long though because after this scene#everything is pretty much rough outline mode#so there's a lot of work that needs to be done#I've also started working on the ending#I'm about halfway done with the rough draft for it#I figured out what I want to do with it I think#at this point I think I will certainly get close to 70k words but I'm not quite sure yet if I'll actually break that barrier#there's a ton that needs to be added to the second half of the chapter though so it's definitely possible#and I still can't say when exactly I'll be done#my current hope is to release the second chapter about three weeks after the first#is that good? is that too long???#you promised you'd be willing to wait didn't you... yes I'm talking to you....#I'm starting to gain a little more confidence in the second chapter after working on it more#gonna have my bestie read it when I'm done so she can affirm that I am indeed not a failure#ok I've talked too much#aki sex. soon. aki sex

Me going into that interview powered-up from all the luck and well-wishes from my family and friends like:
#i talk#job talk#I think it went really well!#Despite my body and brain self-sabotaging me by keeping me up until like... 3:30 am last night#The biggest mark against me is the fact that I don't have tons of experience managing a specific program platform#but I (a bit belatedly) reminded them that I have tons of experience doing website management (including our company's website)#so maybe that helps???#There were 3 interviewers which would've been stressful (even if that seems to be the norm now) but I knew all of them#Like. I don't know them SUPER well but I DO know them. As in we've all met and there's no bad blood or anything#So that helped a LOT#Me on my hands and knees like: Please let this be a nepotism hire I need a better paying job so frickin bad#It's hilarious (but mostly extremely depressing) how the first interview I've gotten in YEARS after hundreds of job applications—#—is only because it's for a job at a company I already work for. What a mess. And I have almost 10 years of experience in my field#Anyways. It was a virtual interview but I still put makeup on so A) They don't see how dead I look#and because B) My eyeliner really makes my expressions more visible#I actually never wore eyeliner until I started teaching online during the peak of the pandemic / lockdown#I made the same discovery that my eyeliner really makes my expressions more visible and I look friendlier#Which I think helped since my students were all Going through It (I mean; we all were; but good god lockdown was bad for the kids)#So now I just kinda always wear eyeliner when I do makeup. I could probably do it thinner but I'm too lazy to re-learn it#Makeup is an expensive art form but I admire anyone who is dedicated to the practice. It's really cool seeing people do it!#Anyhoo back to work#gif warning

Today's plan to try and do some yard work to repair the extreme heat from the weekend is on hold because now I have to try to fix my stupid cpap machine and if I can't I need to rapidly find a replacement. Yay me.
#vent post#not exactly the best way to start a day#the fucking thing has had issues for a while but finally decided to refuse to turn off#which is better than when it struggled to turn on but still#had to turn off the power strip because there was no other option#so now i need to unplug it and dismantle what i can and see if something is wrong#and if that doesn't fix it find the replacement part my partner was sent that they never returned when they switched brands#and if that still doesn't work I'll have to hit up a medical supply store and pay a ton of many out of pocket#because getting one from my provider will take days#assuming i can even get in to see them this week#fun time. typed very sarcastically

Why... is my phone doing this...
#if i set it down or turn it off it restarts#decided problem was probably caused by storage and deleted all the pictures on my phone#that did nothing so i went to reddit people said check settings to make sure auto restart (why is that a feature#it was already off)#also cleared a shit ton of memory#reddit also said phone might need to update... phone does not need to update i checked#phone still hates me despite telling me its in fully functional working condition#oh i also tried switching my headphones cause sometimes when those are dying they fuck w the system of my phone#headphones were not the problem#i even tried manually restarting it to see if maybe it just neede#needed me to do it for it#no that did nothing#oh it also starts restarting if anything is plugged into or pulled out of it#... why
