(also feel free in the tags to clarify Why you made the choice you made!! :0c)

#polls #tumblr polls #For me I think the top ones would be the House. The Money. or the Friend Group. But I ultimately might would go for the house #JUST becuase it would be my Dream House which means it would already meet mostly all of my specifications #and what I might be looking for. which would save a lot of time searching or customizing/rennovating.#Also because I could use that as a way to leave the US lol.. like .. if I get to choose my dream location.. couldnt I just choose some othe #country?? But I wonder how that works. Can you legally 100% have full ownership of a property in a country yet not be a citizen of that #country?? Would you show up and be like 'erm.. i own this house.. so i shall now live in it' and theyd be like 'uh no. you cant live here #despite owning the house. leave.' ??#So I think the initial process of 1. scraping together funds to actually MOVE myself and my most valuable belongings physically #TO another country. and 2. figuring out how to STAY in that country . might end up being difficult.. BUT. if I could just work that #part of things out then.. dream house?? security for once in my life?? stability?? :0 #Though the $1mil is enticing it's also like.. I feel .. with the way housing prices are now... that's not much???#it's a lot I guess if you plan on like.. investing half the money and staying in an apartment for 5 years while you grow your wealth #or something. but if you're a 'I Need Stability NOW' ready to settle down person who would be most interested in owning a property rather #than nice clothes or a car or whatever other investments you could make then.. eh..?? It seems like unless you're okay with living in #a small town or kind of far away from the city - even some SMALL houses in majorly populated areas in the US will be like #$600.000 - $900.000 or something. like that would be MOST of my money. Which I know you could just pay partially and make #payments on it but idk.. in the option of just outright owning the house it seems like it'd end up being cheaper.#Plus I would want to own it fully asap because I'd be afraid of losing it somehow otherwise. like it being taken for medical bills or #something. which I thought was supposed to be - not IMPOSSIBLE - slightly more complicated legally if you actually have #paid off the house in full. I guess the issue then would be utilities and property tax and such. But I feel like thats overcome-able??#Like I could just stipulate that my Dream House has a little furnished addition or something and then find someone #with money and be like 'Look you can live in this extremely nice area with amazing ameneties and updated everything and ALL you have #to do is give me money to cover the utilities and property tax.'' or something like that. Like the little furnished addition is nicer #than the actual house. they have their own pool and spa and movie room or something and Ill also cook all their meals for them #or whatever (how luxurious it would be depeneds on how high the property tax actually is/how much I would need to entice them into #why it's a good deal for them to pay it for me lol). idk... something like that.. ANYWAY #I asked a few people I know though and one of them answered they'd rather have a romantic partner. the other one said they'd like #to be able to choose someone to die lol.. So I'm curious what people value the most

i hate to say it because i'm neurodivergent and a chronic-pain-haver but like... sometimes stuff is going to be hard and that's okay.

it's okay if you don't understand something the first few times it's explained to you. it's okay if you have to google every word in a sentence. it's okay if you need to spend a few hours learning the context behind a complicated situation. it's okay if you need to read something, think about it, and then come back to re-read it.

i get it. giving up is easier, and we are all broken down and also broke as hell. nobody has the time, nobody has the fucking energy. that is how they win, though. that is why you feel this way. it is so much easier, and that is why you must resist the impetus to shut down. fight through the desire you've been taught to "tl;dr".

embrace when a book is confusing for you. accept not all media will be transparent and glittery and in the genre you love. question why you need everything to be lily-white and soft. i get it. i also sometimes choose the escapism, the fantasy-romance. there's no shame in that. but every day i still try to make myself think about something, to actually process and challenge myself. it is hard, often, because of my neurodivergence. but i fight that urge, because i think it's fucking important.

especially right now. the more they convince you not to think, the easier it will be to feed you misinformation. the more we accept a message without criticism, the more power they will have over that message. the more you choose convenience, the more they will make propaganda convenient to you.

#personal #this also applies to ai art and stuff. like #artists and crafters and non-ai users took the time space and energy to learn things #bc we are actually LEARNING them. and it takes actual SKILL.#i know the skill is long to learn and often annoying. i still get frustrated about my art bc it's not good #but i do it myself. bc i respect that it IS a skill.#ai writing a book for you is not YOU learning how to write a book. and it took me a lifetime to write a book. i get it.#ai drones running a marathon don't run the marathon for u #there are things i cannot due to my disability. lol marathons being 1. there are things u can't do either #this is about stretching yourself in the ways that are healthy and good for you.#ai learning for u in ur classes is NOT healthy. u are not learning.#''but otherwise i won't pass''#first of all that's a self-defeating prophecy. and many of us who thought we wouldn't pass DID pass #and secondly. CHALLENGE urself. ur paying for college anyway. don't pay just to let AI learn for u.

companions re-classed part 3 - shadowheart 🌌🌚🌝

*shadowdancer isn't a 5e rogue subclass, it's a 3.5e rogue-based prestige class, but it suits her so well and when i played 3.5e as a kid i thought it was the coolest thing ever lol so i wanted to use it

karlach 🔥 wyll ⚔️

#shadowheart #bg3 #my art #*i still think it's the coolest thing ever #ngl tho i hate to speak a word against objectively the best class (rogue) it could use more weird spooky subclasses #rly the only cool supernatural one rn is phantom which i do like a whole lot but it didn't feel like a good fit for her #glad to get this done before succumbing fully to DA brain but idk what the fate of the final three will be lol #next up is lae’zel so im hoping the Do It For Her will motivate me

Dannymay Day 6: Transformation

Background Reference: S1Ep18 Life Lessons, 11:07

#danny phantom #dp #dannymay2025 #dannymay 2025 #my art #flash warning #i toned down the flash in this one compared to the last one but i'd say it still needs the warning ^w^#i tried it without the flash frame and it just didn't hit the same #cw flashing #tw flashing #anim #gif #TEEHEE more animation practice for meeeeee #this is a spiritual successor to every time in my childhood I tried to illustrate this exact concept. lol #i used keyframes for the transformation ring so that made things a loooot easier #also to get the halves to change I just copied and pasted and erased a bunch #i wonder if CSP has a better way to do that #i wanted to make his eyes open at the end but alas. i was still limited to 24 frames #niche but my absolute favorite texture from the built in CSP assets is Mortar #its just so arraghdgsjdgakfa #its so good. i use it on so many things lmaooo #also Danny Bro drop ur workout routine hahaha #my pen wanted to make him SO muscular and i toned it down #oh geez i remember being 14 and being so happy i was the same age as him #now I think hes heckin LITTLE #lol im done now

quit trying to hold on so tight. i'm gone. long gone (+ closeups)

#deltarune #dess holiday #december holiday #dess is laura palmer #so much laura #the way she haunts the narrative #the “perfect” girl who does so many things (baseball music ice skating video games the good big sister etc..) but is actually fucked up #she protects noelle like laura protects donna #feel like people downplay the wee d in her room #like people downplayed drgs in laura's life #grr aa ggra awa awawaw #im crazy about her #she is so me #my art #utdr #twin peaks #tagging bc there are so many references LOL and if you like laura twin peaks youll probably like dess #im literally crazy #she is like laura like anthy like beatrice umineko #im going crazy #my theory: she dragged kris in her shenanigans and kris got fucked up too and had to do art therapy because of this #and she dragged kris because she had to choose between her and noelle #and she wanted to protect noelle

What was my plan for the day: a quick warmup and get some work done on a comic project

What ended up happening: mid-panel i remembered this image, the demons overtook me and suddenly it’s 10pm ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

#teen wolf #stiles stilinski #derek hale #sterek #sterek fanart #listen i do not decide what art project gets done #i have so many wips #and yet #i get distracted from one shitpost by another #all in all good use of a saturday afternoon LOL #I think this is the best harsh-sunlight thing I've ever colored #good thing it was for something like this huh #naw you know what it perfectly encapsulates my drawing experience these past few months #I'm very happy (:#my art

I think people tend to assume that any criticism of worldbuilding is ultimately a demand for a story to grind itself to a halt and give the reader 20 paragraphs of exposition, and like. Most of the time good-faith criticism of this nature is coming from a core aspect of the story not being grounded in the setting in a way that outright detracts from the story's quality. You fix it not by Explaining but by Showing it passively in the makeup of the world.

Like the last instance I saw this critique in was like 'you can't expect an author to stop and exposit the nuances of gender roles/Queerness in a fictional society' and it's like yeah I don't, and in fact this is actually one of the easiest things to show in the text without exposition. If a society has gender norms to begin with you'll see aspects of these norms baked into EVERYTHING. You'll see it in its stories, its religion, its taboos, its etiquette, its clothing, its family structures, its language, its insults, its labor, its leadership, etc. It will have massive impacts on how characters interact with one another and how they perceive themselves. It will help Shape your characters.

If you do this legwork to begin with for the core facets of your story, you will find very natural places for these concepts to be demonstrated without derailing the plot and with little to no exposition. THAT sort of thing is what's being asked of you.

#Extremely comprehensive worldbuilding about every facet of a society is ultimately just for fun. It's not necessary for good writing.#But if you're doing any form of speculative fiction you need to at least do the legwork for the things that drive the plot/characters #Your story won't work as well if you don't #Like if the central storyline in a spec fiction setting is a gay story arc I don't expect you to have the fucking salt economy #meticulously fleshed out to justify where and how your character got the salt offhandedly mentioned in a meal.#I DO expect you to have given more than superficial thought about gender norms.#(also for the gender norms example this Does Not just go for societies with a patriarchy or other gendered hegemony lol)
