Keep seeing that post where OP starts like 'Thinking about...grieving the undead' and then adds on about like. Real life situations where people have not died but have left your life and you would have reason to grieve them.

All respect, that's an important concept, but that is not what I am thinking about when I read 'grieving the undead'.

#your brother is a vampire. he's sitting across the table from you chatting with your mother about her day #and he's dead and he's gone and he's never coming back.#he laughs the same and he talks the same but his arm is cold when he grabs you in a headlock and your dog won't be in the same room with hi #he'll still hang around watching TV with you and give you wedgies and make stupid jokes #but you can't tell him about the bullies at school anymore because this thing with your brother's face will just find them and kill them.#and not even stupid fucking Jason deserves what the monster in your dead brother's skin would do to him.#your brother is dead and lost and right there in arm's reach and gone forever with no hope of ever getting him back.#i'm sure there are corollaries to be written about like ghosts and zombies but this is the one i'm personally hung up on recently

One of my first digital pieces (2010) versus one of my recent ones (2024)

We all start somewhere!

#picked these cause they're in a similar pose lol. i mean not at all. but sort of... more than my other art at least...#oh fuck im so tired im saving this to drafts and coming back later #my anxiety meds wipe me the fuck out so im trying not to take them in the day #and they're like legit borderline a sleeping med for me. i take one and in 30 mins im OUT.#so I'm. i mean i was already only taking 1-2 in the day and then 2-3 at night #anyways it makes me sad when people say they dont have an artistic bone in their body #and especially when they say they could never draw like me :(#dont put yourself down to lift me up! i don't want my art to be used for you to be mean to yourself!!!#lots of experiences of people comparing themselves to me and being mean to themself...#feels bad. it's okay if you're slow it's okay to be learning it's okay!!!#I'm me and you're you and we're here to learn from each other. i just wanna hang out..#y'know what I'm just gonna post without saying anything i WILL forget I made a draft #i have so many things i intend to post and then forget #it's a wonder I post anything #i only do it when i get bored. and run out of stuff to scroll through #like whelp. guess if i want a post I have to make one myself.#also the second one is really good idc that it's a study i still drew it #art growth #this was in 2010 btw #i started highschool in 2011 #I've grown a lot and you can too.#also I've never really been one to dislike my old art. like idk I was trying... if it's bad I just won't look at it whatever #like i wouldn't be mean to someone else who made that so i don't get a free pass to be mean just cause it's to me #man my thoughts are bungled. okay sleep time #if my phone made typos you didn't see it

DAREDEVIL: BORN AGAIN | 1.09

Hey, this is it.

#Daredevil Born Again #Karedevil #Karen Page #Matt Murdock #ddba spoilers #Daredeviledit #Daredevil Spoilers #Not Revolution #GIF set #Mine #SEE they really needed to indicate that what happened to Foggy wasn't just a way to f**k Matt up and make Karen move away.#Maybe spend a minute on paperwork submission shots. An email. A brief text. Have Foggy excitedly brag to Matt and Karen that he has #something to show them tomorrow morning that is going to blow their minds #But no. They just expected that people would hang in there waiting for a point.#I have always loved the mystery solving aspect of this show and so I personally felt very disconnected with everything #for most of this season. So to just bring this up in the last 2 episodes feels a bit late.#But I do love them getting their sleuth on together. And I guess it makes sense if things changed now because Karen's back.#Like her departure paused everything and her arrival back is just as everything hits a new gear.#Matt wasn't meant to work this all out on his own.#I still think it wasn't worth Foggy's life but it's an interesting plot piece.#And I like Matt hyping Karen up at the beginning. Like no duh she's good at finding things - she was a reporter.#Matt should really invest in a coat so he isn't wandering around dressed like Daredevil in places that likely have cameras.#I'd say he could have borrowed one from Frank but... now I'm picturing that conversation and that seems a little farfetched.#Frank has like two outfits I doubt he has a coat he can lend out.#(The new gif limits are crazy FYI. I haven't done much giffing in years so it's so weird not trying to keep everything to less than 3MBs.)

Pac: Fit. Where are you, Fit? Where are you, Fit? Where is my official gossip???

It's always very funny hearing Pac and Fit complaining when the other person hasn't logged onto the server yet, lmao.

#Pactw #QSMP #Pac #Not tagging Hideduo because these are the CCs so the tag isn't applicable #but it's still very funny #Not a full transcript or translation because I don't want to get it wrong but TLDR:#Pac's talking about how he might close the live after 4 hours (?) and says ''but let's hope not it depends on how things progress''#then complains about where Fit is #lmao #I love their friendship so much dude I WISH THEYD HANG OUT MORE OUTSIDE OF THE SERVER #GAH!!!!!!#THEYRE SO SWEET AND I LOVE THEM BOTH #please tailor your content to me specifically /hj #This was one of those times when I had Pac's stream on in the background just for background noise #and hearing him suddenly swap to English and say that startled me LMAO #October 10 2023 #I'm pretty sure #Q

cannot emphasize enough how much 'from impossible to difficult to unfamiliar to familiar to easy to automatic', as a mantra, has positively contributed to my current quality of life

#my sense of time is so borked that i have a lot of trouble engaging in long term things #projects and learning mentally intensive skills both #and relatively recently it's clicked in my toddler brain that increments add up #whether it was through heh increments of willing it or it just plopped in my lap one day #so i've just been focusing on the increments and then. how you say. trusting the process #even if i just look at something or practice something for a few moments i'm chipping away at the impossible and giving it form #and hey i've been learning programming despite my brain fog and mental and physical exhaustion #gradually gradually gradually #it's not perfect and there are still things that i'm still kind of... getting the hang of how to approach #but it's not nothing

Moving from a 15 year old pre-owned PC to a brand new custom built one today and I'm scared. It's like moving into a big new house and now I have to move all my little things in and install new shiny furniture that will probably steal those things and also spy on me because that's what they do nowadays.

I'll also be forced to use a newer, probably much worse version of photoshop because adobe is the devil and I signed my soul away long ago.

#I saved up for years to afford a new PC and I've now had it stand unused in my bedroom for a month because I hate installing things #change is scary #I've been through so much with my old one I'm getting sentimental #it runs out of graphics memory every time I edit video and it won't start if I use certain usb ports #and one hard drive hangs dangling free from its cable in there because there was no room to mount it in the chassi #still though #ok ok less tagging more installing soft/spyware #bad ninken's big computer day

tbh I think dimitri calling sylvain an older brother figure in the jp version of the game says a lot more about dimitri than it does sylvain…

#dimitri ‘glenn was about my age and my best friend and my step mother was always kind to me’ blaiddyd #i guess i'm still on about this #as a related aside:#i always took sylvain calling felix’s past behavior ‘cute… like a little brother’ as more of a jab than a genuine lament #sylvain knows felix too well for it to be anything else #‘cute’ and ‘little brother’ are just two of felix's big red buttons that sylvain can push when he wants to be an ass #and he does in that support--because felix saying they’re only friends because of their parents actually really gets to sylvain #family to sylvain is an obligation that you don’t get a say in #at this point in the game he is struggling SO hard with accepting the life that someone else has planned out for him #simply because of the blood that runs through his veins #but he gets a say in being friends with felix and ingrid and dimitri #and i think that distinction would be really important to him #if barely-hanging-in-there-dimitri wants to imprint on sylvain like a traumatized baby duckling now that glenn's dead #well--that's a dimitri problem i think #honestly what does IS think a big brother figure is? someone to look up to as an example? to go to for support when you have problems?#because at the start of the game sylvain can't be EITHER of these things to anyone #sylvain's trying to fix problems by redirecting anger onto himself - he's lightening the mood with jokes that make people want to punch him #he's possibly even dying for them on the battlefield #he absolutely cares about them! but he doesn't want to be a brother. he wants to be a friend. that they intentionally chose.#what little self worth he has kind of hinges on it #what do i know though #whatever people can have their own thoughts and opinions i'm not actually saying 'we can't be friends if you don't think like me'#but i clearly feel strongly about this #rambling character thoughts

there's nothing quite like a dark souls game when you're really depressed. fromsoft places a hand on your shoulder and says "yeah no you're right. sometimes the whole world really is coming at you shrieking and flailing and trying to claw your face off and there is no hope in sight. what is left for us here but the deep sorrow of a magnificent beast doomed to a slow and possibly endless descent into ruin? here's a sword about it. go wild"

and then you stand there with tears in your eyes clutching your giant claymore to your chest like a lover and whisper "I. love my sword" and you do. you love that sword

#on so many levels I understand harrowhark nonagesimus. I love and hate that sword and the burden and gift it symbolizes #the duty to struggle on because you're beholden to and beheld by love still etc.#fromsoft could make a really good and really weird locked tomb game if given the chance I think. it wouldn't be what I wanted #(which lbr would be a dating sim thing. like bioware style. some gameplay but mostly Drama) but it would rock probably #dark souls #dark souls 3 #I was feeling real bad so I went and borrowed ds3 from the library since it's the only one I haven't played!#thus far it's definitely my least favourite of the trilogy (longtime ds2 lover & truther logging on) but it's still a from game #it scratches the itch! I made the colossal mistake of starting with a spear and boy oh boy do I NOT have the muscle memory built #for that moveset in these games fhdsakj I was wondering if I really just sucked until I picked up a shortsword and was like 'ah!'#and then when I finally found the claymore... this is of course deeply embarrassing but I kind of teared up a little #I'm home. I'm never using a shield again. it is not the vaguely-concerned way to cower before death behind a wall of steel #I mistime a dodge roll straight into an enemy attack and eat shit as tradition and honour dictates #storywise I'm not getting anything much out of this I must admit tho I didn't expect to (I've watched all the lore vids) AND #I don't quite vibe with how linear it is or the runbacks (damn elden ring really fixed that design problem huh!) but it feels good #to slam my face into a brick wall again. the comfort of having your ass kicked and knowing that is as it should be #I am doing a little roleplaying. my girl selene. she's from irythill. she used to hang out with the same crowd as vordt and the dancer #(she in fact had a huge crush on the dancer back in the day) but like. she hung out in the lower coolness tier of the same crowd #if you see what I mean. I hate to invoke the franchise even through fanwork but my life as a background slytherin style.#selene was on the team for sure. but it was the b team. the powers that be kind of sent her off on an impossible quest #that she's been dutifully trying to complete this whole time and indeed kind of is still this linking the fire thing is just a sidequest #(selene is very hot basically well-meaning and not too bright. true hero material)#she's SO embarrassed after fighting vordt b/c she genuinely thought his name was bort this whole time #every time she meets an outrider knight she's either like 'oh my god -- KEVIN?? D:' or 'hehehehe who needs #to 'watch their footwork' now motherfucker. yeah you heard me bill'. she's going to be real sad about gwyndoline probably :(#also. I have lucatiel's armour now. oh my god. my girl. long time no see I love you. tfw no hat tho

Give me back what was mine

Of all the things my broken body has taken from me I miss my memory the most I used to be able to recall whole scripts and lists of every person I had known at the drop of a hat Losing that is something of the natural process of aging, I know Old and useless information makes way for the new But I turned 19 and my time was taken, slowly at first Snatches of hours lost to sleep here and there Creeping up faster and faster until there was little of me left When I came round from the slumber, I remembered less than i thought I would Natural, I suppose, when your body goes through a trauma But I didn’t realise that effect would be long-lasting That I’d lose the clarity of memories of a first love, of throwing up my first drinks of alcohol, of seeing my father cry for the first time Cognitively, they are still there I have told and retold them enough times to know them in a different way Half the memory is in its telling, after all But they’re always shrouded in a layer of fog Sometimes I live through an experience, knowing half of it will be gone in the blink of an eye Important moments used to be catalogued down to the very words and intonation Now I’m lucky if I remember the feeling But the worst of it, the worst feeling of all Is not even knowing how much was lost
