Something I wish more people understood is that optimism and kindness are a choice.
For some people that choice comes more naturally than others. In some situations that choice is easier to make. But even if you're naturally inclined to be kind and optimistic, there will be times when it's a real struggle to not just wallow in the misery, or to be a petty ass gremlin to someone. When it takes real effort to not just take the easy option, because you know it will not help, or will even make stuff worse in the long run.
On the flip side for those who it doesn't come naturally, who really need to work on it, they still can and often do choose both kindness and optimism. Because no matter the difficulty level, it improves your overall quality of life and that of those around you.
Also, choosing kindness is not faking things. If you do kind things you are a kind person, whether you have to actively chose it or not. There is no difference to those you were kind to whether or not you had to think about the action, or if it just happened automatically. You still treated them kindly, and that is what they'll remember. It will mean more than you might think.
The good news is that it's a muscle you can train. The more you forge those pathways in your brain, the easier they are to walk. Where one day you may find that while you may never be a fully natural optimistic kind person, you can pretty well imitate one, and that's all that matters.
Kindness and optimism are a choice and you always get to choose it.
#optimism#kindness#hope punk#hopepunk#and before anyone has a go at me#don't strawman me#you very well know I mean within reason#nothing in life is without shades of nuance and if you can't deal with that you have bigger problems to sort out first#also you don't have to fully switch to 100% kindness and optimism#just try it with little things#notice a bit of art you like or a flower on your way to work#do one small kindness for someone or even yourself#you don't run a marathon with no training so don't try to do this without starting small#but I promise you can get there

The Death of Wei Wuxian.
(Thank you to everyone who participated in the poll!)
#poorly drawn mdzs#mdzs#wei wuxian#yin tiger tally#'Death by radish related reasons' was the unexpected - but very welcome - winner!#I had a lot of fun coming up with a silly radish related reason that could have fit within canon.#Posing these action shots was a whole other challenge though! I had so many different versions get scrapped! AH!#The original intention was to make this a bonus ep in PD-MDZS but we kind of...don't come back to this topic.#So it is an aside! And I love making follow up comics for polls!#A huge bummer that this is the only time I ever got to show off my Yin Tiger Tally design...To me it was like a funny little bug creature.#And now it is forever broken...Broke ass bug...#And of course it is artsy and decorated with a tassel. WWX has an artist's eye.#His science experiment *will* look rad as hell and be nearly indestructible.#Speaking of designs - I chickened out of showing off my real headcanon design for the end of YLLZ era. That will be another post.

like yeah he wants him smth bad but he's also got a job so
#crowley's like “i'll do anything for you within reason and also i have to kinda want it first”#while cas is like “i'm trying to preemptively do things you want. is it working?”#it's so funny#crowley#supernatural#spn#dean winchester#drowley#is that their ship name? idk#destiel#deancas#cas keeps dropping everything to come and help dean#including heavenly armies#crowley has his priorities straight#well#maybe not “straight” lol

Elesa’s feeling homesick. Emmet, bless his heart, tries to help by infodumping while Ingo frantically runs off to find water (crying is a very dehydrating experience).

BONUS:

Heh. Callback.
Want to see more? Here’s the masterpost for submas!

Different standards
#didnt mean to do this one in quote unquote colour but it wasnt legible without it so. heres a treat i suppose#isat#isat spoilers#in stars and time#in stars and time fanart#isat fanart#isat loop#isat bonnie#lucabyteart#coughs up a lung. anyway. ramble time as per usual. this is what i was warming up for btw in case it wasnt obvious#besides being another entry in the 'letting bonnie read loop for filth on accident' series. this is mostly self indulgent musings on#headcanons (and i will just use that word here.) ive previously rambled about in other tags and posts#namely: in the scenario that loop integrates into the party as a New Person for quite a while before The Truth Come Out. i feel they have#a decent chance at really scoring a slam dunk in becoming a guardian figure for bonnie? loop's demeanor is already colder and a tiny#bit more level-headed than siffrin's in the way they seem to discuss bonnie with them. namely pointing out that bonnie#never really hated them. it seems to be one thing they're genuinely at peace with? they've seen by now the truth that bonnie#was just scared and upset. and likely now knows that what bonnie wants is to be treated with grown-up respect within reason. plus loop#already scores bonus points with bonnie since they didnt 1. fuck up bad like sif did in act 5 and 2. saved sif in the party's eyes#... but then when it turns out that this clean-slate relationship with a stranger was siffrin being deceitful? must have been odd.#bonnie seems to really dislike being lied to. the question is whether they'd see it that way? would they feel betrayed there?#anyway. this is set after all those emotions are at least settled some. loop able to be more physically affectionate... and yet#still not letting themselves be quite as close as they'd like perhaps. perhaps...#anyway translucent pyjamas because i dont care if you're comforting a crying child you've GOT to SERVE!!!#and also i feel like the party probably wouldn't let loop stay completely naked for that long. especially not post-reveal anyway

When Tommy saved Bobby for the second time—this time eight years in the past—it flashed me back to last summer, when Tim Minear posted a BuckTommy video to his facebook.
In that video, a fan effectively highlighted the concept of 'Invisible String Theory' and how it related to BuckTommy as a pairing, while also pointing out how this made Tommy Kinard stand out as not just a unique and effective love interest for Buck, but also an influential character for the direction of the show in general.
So, having a new flashback where Tommy is the one to save Bobby in the past, when it could have just as easily been anyone else who saved him, adds even more contextual layers to the concept. Because had Tommy not intervened at this moment, Bobby likely would have fallen into the inferno and died, leading to the alteration or complete erasure of just about everything we have witnessed in the show since 1x01--never mind just Buck no longer meeting Tommy. It makes me consider that the concept of ‘Invisible String Theory’ may have actually resonated with Minear in a truly influential way once it was brought to his attention, via that video or elsewhere, and that he didn’t just post that video for mere fandom points. Because with this latest development, we have veered away from ‘accidental Invisible String Theory’, to what appears to now be intentional. With this latest development, the writing continues to integrate Tommy into the show’s past and present, while further establishing a strong foundation for his place in the show’s future. It's yet another solid piece of evidence pointing to true longevity for the BuckTommy pairing.
Hen has her Karen, Maddie has her Chimney, Athena had her Bobby, and Buck will have his Tommy.
#911 abc#bucktommy#yet another reason why i do not understand the skepticism surrounding a reconciliation. it's very clear minear loves tommy as a character#and wants him with buck. they're obviously going to work through their troubles and become a stable long term couple.#i mean... it's not even just a blueprint anymore. there is brick and wood and glass forming a very solid foundation here.#personally? unless oliver and/or lou decide to leave the show - i see them moving in and getting engaged in season nine.#and a wedding in season ten.#too optimistic? as a viewer in my thirties who has been down the film and television road for decades - i don't think so.#i think the set up is overwhelmingly there and tim minear isn't even trying to hide it at this point.#any major skepticism and negativity is a you problem.#that’s not to say things can’t go wrong - like an actor choosing to step away or minear being replaced with a showrunner who wants to#take buck in a different direction. but the intent to reconcile the pair is CLEARLY there - as it currently stands - with STRONG signs of#longevity rooted within the intent.

Something Borrowed, Something Blue.
[First] Prev <–-> Next
#poorly drawn mdzs#mdzs#wei wuxian#wen ning#jiang cheng#There was a violent war within me to caption this 'Brothers shop too'. It is the funnier caption.#Alas! I have a pay-off to build up so I must continue in theme.#Next comic is one I have been so excited to draw. I'm so excited to share!#Turning the spotlight back to JC for a moment here: It struck me while drawing this that we don't actually have confirmation-#-that this is the same town LWJ met WWX in. In fact it actually makes more sense if they aren't going to the same town each time.#After all - we clearly see that despite the high number of rumours - no one recognizes him *or* Wen Ning.#This does bring the implication that JC has been wandering around villages and towns trying to bump into his estranged brother.#Just lurking around shop stalls with a menacing aura. Hoping his hubris detector suddenly spikes high and he finds WWX.#He brings a threatening aura to the farmers market that is actively scaring off the customers and curdling the milk.#How long was he trying? I previously pointed out that LWJ was probably trying for a few days...but how long was JC trying?#Neither him or Jiang Yanli knew LWJ told him about the wedding...so it stands to reason they might have be able to find him sooner.#It was all just a matter of poor timing...Jiang Cheng got cucked again by LWJ and he didn't even realize it.
