i think people should stop thinking in stark black and white and stop taking things violently at face value and maybe society would be a little better. or at least stop making it the problem of other people. it really is a great brain exercise to stop and be like well okay wait a minute. you literally feel better.
#the taking things literally is hard i get it but#it does good to think outside of the box quite often.#court rambambles#some people literally just. look so dumb when they say one thing is ONLY THIS WAY. babe.#if we humans have the ability to think fluidly. why don't we do it more.#idk maybe if everyone were autistic it would be easier /hj we'd all just be annoying each other#this is about art and human identity#why is it so hard to abandon structure a little where it's not needed. where it doesn't help Anything#let things be gray and every other color#im not talking about rights and morals we should uphold but just#basic human existence shit#one person does not get to decide how another person should feel about and express themself based on what they know#also shout out to aroace people#generally the most open it is what it is group of people out there#when both the lgbtq+ and not communities are against you what can you do

Pls consider MBJ looking between his spy and his spy's didi and just trying to make sense of these two
POV: you are Mobei Jun looking at your loyal servant glare absolute murderous daggers at you while his younger brother (that you didn't know about) is just staring at you weirdly
#svsss#shang qinghua#original shang qinghua#shang brothers#shang bros#airplane bro#airplane shooting towards the sky#mobei jun#Mobei is so confused by why they both look almost identical with a COMPLETELY different personality#Small Airplane bas a crush#Mobei Jun just thinks the small Shang Qinghua is weird#he doesnt do anything to him because he has a feeling his 'loyal'#servant would betray him in an instant if he does so he leaves him be#this idea makes me laugh butnim not sure if it would be canon to this au#tbh everything is canon in any au i do im SO bad at keeping track of what#but its because Shen Yuan is around Shang Qinghuas age and Shen Yuan helps small Binghe#so I kind wanted slightly older Shang Qinghua to help small Mobei Jun when he was in the human world#i have to make a timeline oh my god#but i to TRY to have Airplane bro be in some spy thing with Mobei Jun similar to canon but I need Og to also be in some spy thing so im not#sure if i should have it that he finds out about the demon and helps them to keep an eye out for his brother or if#OG Shang Qinghua is working with another Ice demon like his father or Linguang jun#if its Linguang Jun then it would be interesting to see the two brothers come head to head#of course Og would be on his brothers side but with some angst haaaaa#idk right now i dont have anything set in stone so everything is canon yay!!!!#all you authors out there are so string and brave because this is just in my head and im fighting for my life#my art#nibbelraz#ask

Fop redesigns for funsies but also bcs I saw some star heel boots and had to put Dale in them immediately.
#No Dev in this lineup simply bcs I cannot imagine him wearing anything but his cannon outfit#he has no sense of fashion or personal identity to pull an outfit from LOL#fop#fairly oddparents#fop a new wish#fairly oddparents a new wish#hazel wells#dale dimmadome#fop peri#fop cosmo#fop wanda#redesigns#outfit redesign#art#digital art#fanart#Im not gonna be using Dale or Peris redesigns bcs those arent things I see them wearing regularly they were more just fun explorations#Hazel Cosmo and Wanda im def using tho#I know I didnt change Wanda much but#I have a small but insane pet peeve where I cannot stand a characters pants and shirt being the same color.#So I made Hazels sweater more purple and changed her pants to a different and darker blue#Gave cosmo a more relaxed dad vibe while keeping it a button up#Wandas mostly the same I just mostly used her human outfit and changed her sneakers to boots#Peri has less visible fairy features than his parents because hes more insistent about hiding them#Also if Peri looks uncomfortable in his outfit it is because he is ♥#I wrote like an entire paragraph about Peris relationship with gender identity and how fairy society biology/gender binary comes in conflic#and then I pussied out of posting it so now all you get is peri looking kinda uncomfy in a skirt#The long story short of it tho is that Peri identifies as the human version of male#while the closest he can get to that in fairy society is kind of transfem#So dressing like that around other fairies is closer to making him feel himself but still not entirely right

Supernatural September - Day 2 | Identity
#spnsept24#destiel#Destiel art#dean Winchester#castiel#spnfanart#wiggleart#this is part of a scene I’ve had in my head for years but never wrote#the scene was post empty rescue and cas had to make a choice about going fully human or angel#and in the scene cas makes the comment to Dean ‘you’d probably hate if it I chose Angel’ or something#not exactly those words but whatever. that prompts Dean to say what I just drew up there#that he loves Cas and Cas is Cas whether he’s human or an angel#and it was all inspired by comments I used to see of people arguing for Angel endgame cas saying he’s always been an angel that’s who he is#that’s his identity etc etc and this show in part is about shedding those predestined roles#and so that argument always bothered me#I’m a human endgame person but I don’t mind angel endgame in some cases but#when the whole argument is that being an angel is who cas is I’m like maaaaaaan shh#wkeljflskdjfkldjvd

Sidestep who becomes an anti-hero style vigilante to bring justice while still maintaining their morals vs murderer villain Sidestep whose pain becomes bitterness while they abandon any sense of goodwill to massacre multiple innocents.
Meanwhile thief sidestep:
#fallen hero#fallen hero sidestep#fhr#I'm joking it's actually beautiful how even the thief route is another way of coping for Sidestep with their trauma and identity#Stealing art has many beautiful dialogues about how it ties to Sidestep wanting to connect with humanity

In which Ford struggles so badly to relate to other people that he wonders if he’s really human at all. The more isolated he becomes, the harder it is to reconcile with his own humanity.
#my art#gravity falls#Stanford pines#ford pines#bill cipher#comic#eye strain#TIME TO DUMP EVERY ONE OF THE 27483949 THOUGHTS IVE HAD INTO THE TAGS BABY#OK!! SO!!!!#I feel like Ford would wonder why he and Stan (being identical twins) aren’t. yk. identical. shouldn’t Stan have polydactyly too?#as a kid he would dream about secretly being nonhuman and being whisked away to a fantastical world full of people like him#finally free of new jersey‚ finally somewhere he belongs#a lot of this disconnect from humanity came from utterly failing at social interactions while others (including stan) navigated them easily#the feeling waned after Stan was kicked out and he didn't have that direct comparison but it never left#then out in the wilderness of gravity falls‚ his isolation and immersion in Weirdness dragged it back up to the forefront#he deserves to have a breakdown over questioning his own nature. as a treat <3#color symbolism time bc I have a problem and use it at every available moment!!! blue and yellow get more vivid#the further from humanity the subject is#bill is entirely made w pure rgb blue and yellow (+ approximately 2674835 textures/layers/blending modes. I reached 150+ layers. help)#I like the idea that he would appear to ford like pure math considering hes a geometrical motherfucker and how the rest of the mindscape wa#I tried to mostly use trigonometry and related stuff for the Math Greebling. as well as fractals i love you forever fractals#MORE SYMBOLISM:#the grid-ish diamond pattern in all of the mindscape bgs (and elsewhere) is a penrose diagram of spacetime#which shows other universes on the other sides of black holes#SOMEONE ASK ME ABOUT MY EUCLYDIA HEADCANON LATER. IVE DUMPED ENOUGH DUMB HCS IN THESE TAGS ALREADY#BUT I THINK ITS VERY FUN#anyways. fuckt up guys n their egos influencing how they view humanity. bill tells ford hes as human as they come bc he was so easily foole#ford cant reconcile with his humanity bc of a failure to perform in one area#and then the immense guilt and shame over what hes done <3#I have So many ford characterization thoughts. no man nor god can stop me

spent the last 2 days thinking about what animals pd characters would be :3
#my post#my art#jrwi pd#prime defenders#fanart#yey <3#i have Reasons for everyones animal#wiwi is a deer bcus like. deer in headlights. prey animal. hes so scared literally all of the time. also made me think of chronic wasting#disease.#dakota is a dog because of course he is. no explanation needed. but hes specificially a pitbull bcus people look at him and think hes a bad#kid yknow. hes failing school he trespasses up the sides of buildings hes always late. idk something about how people think pitbulls are#inherently bad dogs.#also they have the biggest goofiest smiles and thatz so dakota to me#ashe is a coyote bcus i Needed him to be a social animal. and fun fact- coyotes dont live in packs but they live in family groups!#vyncent is a wasp (not because of Revenge of the Wasps but that was a funny coincedence)#because i needed a way to make him still visibly seperate from the prime people. so i made him a bug rather than a mammal.#hes a wasp bcus yknow workers drones hive mind. vyncent struggles with his identity. with taking action. with knowing who he is and what he#wants. hes a follower. chose wasp specifically mostly bcus a) yellow and he has yellow magic#and b) bcus they can sting a lot. and hes knife!#tide is a sheep bcus hes a clone. yknow. like dolly the sheep!#also a bit bcus like sheep get herded around and tide thinks being a hero is about following orders (at least in s1 he does lol)#mark is also a coyote bcus like ashe is one. but alsooo coyotes are opportunistic. will work with whoever to hunt. and well you know mark.#he did what he had to do.#they also go off on their own away from their family group to hunt! and mark left ashe alone to go work. yaaaay#and the trickster!!! i kindof randomly chose 5 animals (1 for each of the array) based on spookiness#so theres a rattle snake (tail) a raven (wing) a bat (other wing) an owl (neck) and a geep (goat/sheep. horns)#i thought itd be fun if it could twist its head all the way around all freaky style :]#also this is cursed as fuck but overlords whole thing was turning people into animals right. would this make his thing in this au be making#animals into people?? thats horrifying#and also why i drew mark w the bandages bcus i wasnt sure whether to make him half lizard still or. part human.

A true and 100% historically accurate account of Hamilton's first meeting with Andre
+ Bonus Lafayette
#No idea what my deal is this week#wahoo#alexander hamilton#john andre#amrev#art tag#now expand the post or these tags wont make sense#excuse me while I use these weird little sketches to vent some wildly complex feelings about American identity#theres something to be said about the way Lafayette and Hamilton express opposing views of humanity#in a way that is deeply connected to both how they view their “americanness”#and also the fact that only one of them was insanely fucking wealthy#theres cynicism born from poverty and a pervasive sense of otherness#vs a sort of naive hopefulness coming from wealth that isolated in an entirely different way#and they're brothers#I don't know what Im cooking but its something#marquis de lafayette#might as well tag him at this point#this was supposed to be a shitpost how did I get here

been in a ref mood. I guess I can have a humanoid sona too, sometimes. They're not just human though, that'd be boring.
#digital art#my fursona#(sorta?)#ref sheet#I have been thinking about identity and kin stuff and coming to maybe thinking of myself as shapeshifter-hearted#the 'human enough' form may change that's a remnant from a much older design and context but for now it's just kinda stuck#also am i in the minority for enjoying drawing refsheets? most people i see talk about it like it's a pain but i like doing them#i don't have to think very hard about the poses lol

Pardner and I have been working on a canon divergent au and also I wanted to play around with fuckin hair construction :3 Top left is Atem/Yami and how he looks to Yuugi, Top right is classic flavored Yuugi Bottom is how Yuugi looks to everyone when Atem/Yami is driving (Minus the eye on most occasions. Sometimes you get lil a mindcrush. As a treat)
#Yugioh#Atem#Yami Yuugi#yuugi mutou#The AU is that Zork isn't fucking in it because Pardner and I just thought having anime satan was duuuuumb.#Key points: Yuugi and Yami met when Yuugi was 23. Kaiba has the eye and Ryoji has the key. Malik Yami Malik are two different people#Every item is evil. Puzzle? Evil. Necklace? Evil. Only non 'evil' item is the scales and that's arguable.#Oops you dont get to make 7 philosopher stones out of human soup and make only a couple arguably 'bad'#My City now#Kisara is here too! She's Kaiba's dragon wife after a lot of debate about if Priest Seto or her should be linked to the eye.#Also Atem gets the 'Your name is Yami' treatment because I wanted a big distinction from his past self and his current self because I have#uuuuuuuuuuh maybe like a whole papers worth of thoughts on identity to the self both past and present and I dunno man#His name is less important here bc it's not the seal to keeping anime satan on lockdown#Everyone of the nerd herd is the same except in the most hedonistic fashion Joey is Joey#Anzu and Honda and Ryoji? Still their OG names but we honestly could not leave the Brooklynite alone#Someday I might make a big fuck off cheat sheet of these characters and how we've altered them#I am so fuckin IN DEEP suddenly with this fucking series I do not know what happened#Woke up with my 11 year old self holding me at gunpoint saying#YOU HAVE THE POWER TO MAKE THE GAYEST SHIP ART#THAT I NEVER HAD THE SKILL TO PRODUCE. YOU KNOW WHAT YOU MUST DO#like yeah I guess I do champ...#Posting from the Shadow Realm

who the hell is this guy ….
haven’t tried gijinka in awhile and man i forgot how fun making designs are :D
#martyn art#guy with the most unfortunate name … forgive me if it’s not a viable Japanese name i just wanted a play off of “monokuma”#why do all the human designs i see make him and usami kids/teens? they’re both teachers#& don’t they both complain about “kids today” and all that#idk what his role would be in canon i just wanted try gijinka again. maybe he’s jin kirigiri’s assistant or smth#then jin gets executed and junko makes this guy a figurehead to hide her identity#also happy late anniversary to this fuckass game series that’s plagued me for years ... meant to post earlier but i got caught up#idk if i need to add a warning for his eye infection it’s not that graphic#monokuma#danganronpa#gijinka#humanization
