Somehow, in the far future, Tim's canonical age finally moves past 17, and his siblings take him out for his 21st birthday

Dick, placing some vodka shots in front of him: Time for your first drink! I can't believe you've already grown so much!

Jason: Drink those slowly, alright? Do you need us to dilute them or-

Tim, already downing the shots in under three seconds flat: Can i have more

Jason:

Dick:

Cass, covering Damian's eyes:

Tim: uh I mean ooh! It burns! It's...so bitter haha

presenting my pale visualization for peer review

#disco elysium #pale #sacred and terrible air #the light thing is because of the some things said in SATA #I'm too low on energy rn to source everything so instead if you're like #'why do you think it's this or that way' ask me i'll look for the dialogue from the game or novel to support my claims #or tell me why im wrong #developed some sort of Stockholm syndrome* while working as a physics text book illustrator #this is just like when i made the electromagnetic spectrum illustration #*(I know stockholm syndrome isn't real)

Here are some Season 2 Arcane GIF comparisons before and after I color and sharpen them! | Season 1 Comparison GIFs

#arcane #arcaneedit #gifmaking #reminder that if ur not a fan of the coloring and sharpening then i dont need to hear ur opinion so fuck off and make your own gifs :)#sooo yeah!!! just sharing this very old coloring comparison i use from time to time to make sure i follow a certain peg for my gifs #but i dont really follow it to the T of course #and now i will use the tags to rant/comment about my coloring process lmao #ok so.... arcane s2 is SOOOOO much brighter than s1 i am so so so thankful we have such bright scenes instead of all the dark ones in s1 #because it makes my life so much easier #that being said my coloring isnt really perfect i still cant handle more complex tones like the mel gif......#i used to have a more stylized coloring wayyy back in s1 (esp when u look at my old gifs) but i kinda realized i had to change it #so i scrapped all my old psds and now coloredit EVERYTHING MANUALLY #hence why sometimes i gif the same scene but theyre colored different since i never use a preset PSD now #however it became way more tedious to make gifs... so yeah.... lmao #but in the end i like it more!!! i like that my new coloring just basically matches the show more but is just brighter and more saturated #unless ofc i dont like the tones of the original show i.e. the vi gif you see there where its super green gray???? idk i dont like it so #i recolored the entire thing #anyways thats really it coloring will always be something i continue to try to improve on but recently ive just been v busy so i just #speed color and edit everything and dont rlly take all adjustments into account so no more complex tones and #i just stick to basic things #oh right sharpening! so for sharpening i use a very basic setting: just 500 px and 0.4 radius which is what i use for almost everything #i also dont add noise bc the landscape photographer in me does NOT like it LMFAOOOOOOOOOO #but yeah thats really it for sharpening oh i also use 4k sources as much as possible bc it gives the best quality and if #i cant find any source i just upscale everything by myself then crop stuff again back to 540 px and imo it really just does look better #personal tag

Sae Niijima is such a good character it drives me insane a little. She's not a mother nor a maternal or doting older sister but instead a twenty four year old who was thrown into a position of responsibility that she never asked for. She loves Makoto just as much as she resents her and its so apparent every time they talk up until November. "Are you studying?" (I want you to do well) (I need you to get a job and stop making my life harder) "I'll use any method necessary to get this promotion" (Life will be easier for us) (So stop distracting me with your problems) "Focus on your future" (I know that you're capable) (I can't afford to waste my time on you, so stop wasting time on others)

Makoto is not only the sole reason she pushes as hard as she does for a promotion, for success, and the reason that she loses herself in her animosity over her fathers death, but also someone she can't stand for so long. Makoto was 14-15 when their father died. Sae was 21. As soon as she got the career she wanted and things started to look up, her stability was robbed from her and she was disillusioned with the system that her father had taught her to rely on and completely adhere to. How do you manage, the daughter of a cop, following his footsteps towards law enforcement, when you're suddenly reminded of how unfair it is? You can't quit, your little sister relies on you and she's so young and struggling just as badly with this grief. So you pick yourself up and you get moving again. You push harder, press further. You abandon your morals and your ethics because punishing criminals (guilty or not) is almost like punishing the man who killed your father.

And the whole time she's fighting for promotions, going for drinks with the SIU Director to make herself more favourable for promotions, trying to navigate being a woman in a competitive, suffocating, male-dominated field, falling behind despite doing so much where others are promoted for doing so little - all the while your little sister comes back from school and her biggest issues are so small compared to yours.

Persona 5 revolves so heavily around grief and loss and change and Sae embodies all of that so well, all of the sharp and unpleasant and jagged parts of grief.

#sae niijima #persona brainrot real #idk what possessed me for this i jsut love her #beyond her being rlly hot and such a driven and compelling character #the way that we see her on screen is so heavily shaped and influenced by grief that its almost crushing when you notice it #she focuses on work because if she falls behind it could cost her and her sister everything #yet she lives in her fathers house. works a job her father would be proud of. is praised through her proximity to her father.#her sister idolises her and relies on her like a parent. sae was never supposed to be that to her #how am i meant to be your mother and your father? how am i meant to be the source of stability in your life when im not stable in mine #and the whole time your little sister sits there and where shes actually putting on a brave face and forcing through her own grief #struggling to put a life without her father into perspective #to you she just looks ... complacent. willfully ignorant to the situation that you're both in and the struggles you're both facing #why WOULDNT you hate her?#and then you realise that shes not ignorant. shes not as stupid or as oblivious as you thought #every time she was being distracting and asking pointless questions she was just reaching out to you #and each time you had to push her hand away and tell her not now. focus. study.#they drive me insane actually #persona 5 #p5r #persona 5 royal #makoto niijima

final offering

#ok but listen #i'm just a tourist and forever will be #but if you even look for a second to the hey day source material #it's crazy #it's sO not ready for prime time #so the way they make everything pretty and palatable lately #for modern audiences even #i don't think that's right #it should be ooglee and awful #just my two cents #and with that my tour of the wh comes to an end #thank you for sticking with me #he's still neat #but WAY too purdy and sane #valorem gadriel #gadriel #warhammer 40k #wh40k #my art

Odysseus: demanding Athena take off whatever enchantment she put on him the second the situation ends.

Odysseus: who constantly reminds Athena that he has great plans to grow old and die with his wife so don't even think about getting any ideas.

Odysseus: side eye diomedes who has started fucking glowing he has so many enchantments on him: bro you should talk to Athena about getting those removed. You're going to end up immortal or some shit

Diomedes: who has been a solider since he was 5 who has intersting thoughts about his own personhood who has a much more traditional relationship with Athena and would rather literally stab his own eye out with a rusted sword than speak out of turn: I don't know what you're talking about

#odysseus #Diomedes #Athena #This is more pulling from my own headcanons than any source material #But I have a lot of feelings about the narritive physically changing a character and how well that works with the idea that #Becoming immortal is a slow process more of a slide than an abrupt change #And I have a lot of feelings about diomedes becoming immortal and how odysseus only ever wanted to be a man #And how diomedes was having a much more mortal experience and odysseus experiencing so much magic and monsters and gods #And how every step of the way diomedes only ever politely thanks Athena never argues only does his duty #And how nearly everything odysseus met tried to change him or keep him and how he fought against that with his whole being #Also a lot of feelings about the traditional reward for heros was immortality #This obviously does not include all the times Athena treated odysseus like a barbie doll because ody was 98% not aware of that #Athena post the whole ajax going insane thing: that was fun #Odysseus: great yah super fucking fun love when my allies go mad with desires to torture me to death BTW #Take off the invisibility spell I want nobody trace of it lingering on me I am remaining mortal if it kills me #Athena: definitely not pouting you're no fun one little spell isn't going to permanently alter you #Odysseus: I am not taking any chances any invisibility I have is going to be my own fucking skill and your excellent training not magic #Diomedes: internally:after getting the ability to see through illusions and see gods #Should I mention this to Pallas Athena? Did she mean for me to keep it? Is it bad if I keep using it?#Is it even more disrespectful to not use it? Surely she is aware that I still have this? Surely it would be an insult to her intelligence #To remind her that would be casting doubt on her memory and perhaps it is part of a plan and #Who am I to question pallas athenas plans who am I but her devout weapon better to not mention it or any of the other lingering magics #Diomedes realizing a hundred years after the fact that he is in fact immortal: ....should I mention this?#Athena finds it funny to try to sneak magic onto odysseus it's a game for them because their both rat bastards #But not post odyssey it's just triggering then #Actual child solider diomedes #Greek myths

thinking about that time somewhere in the early 70's George found an old letter of his from like '61 or something and pattie told him he should save it so he 'recreated' it and just for funsies threw in a line or two that wasn't in the original about how paul sucked at bass and john wanted to kick him out of the band. unparalleled haterism. you have to respect it

#george harrison #paul mccartney #john lennon #the beatles #i cant tell if it was like. just an impulsive thing and he didn't think itd ever really go anywhere #or if he was purposefully trying to fuck with historical record just to spite paul #like either way its both so small and petty but also george! george! the historical record! the primary source documents!!#pleaseeee im begging you dont fuck with that we havea hard enough time sorting through everything without #inserting contemporary resentments into the past #hes so fucking funny #mainly im just glad we know both 1. that he wrote that 2. that it wasnt in the original #bc it says a LOT about how his emotions shaped how he remembered or reflected on things and also just lmao #my posts

its so frustrating how a lot of scu fans cant handle other sonic fans not having the exact same taste in sonic media that they do. like i feel like you can say something negative about literally any other sonic media on here and people generally wouldnt care that much but the second you say anything less than positive about the movies people start getting all weird about it and trying to argue with you ive had it happen to me and seen it happen to others as well .... like the sonic franchise is very big and has many different media types and writing styles not everyone is going to uncritically love everything. get over it ? im not trying to be mean but idk what else to tell you

#this isnt solely about the person who sent me that ask last night i was actually already thinking abut it before #(though it is very confusing that they did i literally havetn been talking about the movies lately they just yelled at me out of nowhere #i mean they apologized so no big deal i guess but like. huh)#i mean i understand not wanting to see a bunch of hate of something you like and its fine to disagree with peoples criticisms #but people are being VERY unreasonable about it when it comes to sonic 3 #cant help but wonder if this sort of behavior is a result of the fact that a lot of people acting this way got into sonic through the movie #after sonic's reputation improved a bit and dont know what constant widespread hate for everything sonic actually looks like #so they dont know how to handle criticism or opinions they disagree with regarding what sonic media is good or bad #and place sonic fans criticizing it because they love sonic and think sonic and its stories and characters deserves better #in the same category as people who just mindlessly hate on sonic for no reason #not that im saying anyone who likes the movies is a new fan or that new fans are fake fans but you get what i mean hopefully #also this is going into hater mode but personally. sonic 3 is one of the least deserving candidates of this type of defensiveness #like. for one its not that goodand actively disrespects the source material in so many ways. but thats more of a subjective opinion i guess #but also its a very popular and successful movie . most people who watched it liked it from what ive seen #randos on tumblr not liking it isnt taking away from that ??????#also paramount doesnt deserve your money anyway #like whats the point in defending it so hard . who cares..

#roblox pressure #pressure roblox #i have sources or explanation on literally anything here so if something sounds weird or interesting my ask box is open ;3 #if i do make it an iceberg video id be explaining everything anyways though #i put some of my crack theories near the bottom since i literally never see anyone talk about their pressure theories #i could add way more stuff to this iceberg but i had to make myself stop at one point so #altiwyre is there because i had no idea they were the lead animator until recently but i KNEW of the altiwyre easter eggs i just didnt know #who they were #data.txt

On a semi related note the more I am subjected to Microsoft products the more I become convinced that the reason so many people these days believe themselves to be “bad with computers” is that the programs they are forced to use in their professional life are utterly incomprehensible to ANY rational human being and they are (rightfully enough) extrapolating out that this is just how computers are. They aren't!!! In their quest to remove all the “scary” details from their poor fragile end users Microsoft have created an ecosystem that behaves completely erratically and unpredictably and is by definition unknowable. Things just happen. Then they stop happening. Nothing ever announces why or how. Just a thousand vague and useless popups that may or may not be there tomorrow. I PROMISE computers are actually extremely simple and logical beasts.

#brain.txt #the biggest barrier to widespread linux adoption is the fear of learning something new and i get it i really do #when youre at zero knowledge and dont even know where to begin its completely overwhelming and so much easier to stick with what you know #but the problem is no one ever really knows windows #youre sharing your room with a wild animal #you believe you know its mannerisms well enough to know when it is hungry and what it likes and dislikes but one day it might lash out #and there will be no way of ever knowing why #with open source software the only barrier to knowledge is how far you want your own curiosity to carry you at present #and yeah! ill readily admit!! theres plenty of components of my system i dont know too much about right now #but i feel inherently less lost and helpless knowing that the information is out there and i am actually capable of reading it #instead of someone actively obfuscating all possible attempts at understanding and also constantly changing everything from under me #(i have never owned a mac in my life so idk whats going on over there but my general impression seems to be that mac at least gets the whole #walled garden thing right in the sense that it is a cohesive and functional experience despite being extremely locked in. which i have more #respect for as a solution i am not interested in but i can see the appeal of rather than the FUCKING DISASTER microsoft has unleashed)

Ik I usually imagine sad things but I'm just here to say I think Stone and Robotnik should have freaky complicated sex to Closer by Nine Inch Nails under the multicolor LEDs of the crab, and I don't think it would heal them or make them worse but rather a secret third thing

#the secret third thing being them learning that they are capable of loving and being loved #and then the fourth thing being they match each other's freak to a degree dangerous to the general public in weirdly specific ways #i want them to spam GUN with tastefully risque photos dropped from untraceable sources #oh baby they could be everything #stobotnik #sonic movies

"Who is Ai Di to you?"

Nat Chen as CHEN YI KISEKI: DEAR TO ME (2023)

#kiseki: dear to me #kisekiedit #kdtm #kiseki dear to me #ai di x chen yi #chen yi x ai di #nat chen #chen bowen #louis chiang #chiang tien #jiang dian #uservid #userspring #userspicy #userrain #userjjessi #usernuria #*cajedit #*gif #flashing gif #GREAT question zherui. the answer is. everything! hope this helps <3 #kk and i talked a ton about chen yi last night and we were saying #that there is a very specific part of both chen yi and ai di that cant fathom not being their whole selves in front of each other #even when their feelings are buried deep they cling to each other cuz being without the other is like missing your other half #but then also. they're too close to each other to see what's really there (specifically from chen yi's side of things)#he cant imagine not being honest with ai di but its in such a way that he still doesnt know how to identify the source of what he's feeling #because...it's ai di.#and it's Always chen yi and ai di. thats just what their lives are LIKE.#so it's easier to not put much thought into it. to fixate and project those feelings on their boss.#but it was never gonna last!! ...everyone say thanks ai di for the pain. it was needed </3

thinking about this quote in connection w/ frank and how he wore the mask of a u.s. marine with a wife and two kids and their picnics in the park to obscure the internal struggle of reconciling the family man (married maria after three months because he got her pregnant like any good man™️ would) and the soldier that enjoyed the violence
