thinking about something @ocelly said a while back about writing and editing using different parts of the brain/serving different parts of the creative process- and fundamentally that mindset has been invaluable to me.
unfortunately, my brain has been coasting in editing/refining/polishing mode for a while now and I really need it to shift gears into creative/generative/productive mode. don't get me wrong, I genuinely love the editing process! I'd forgotten how much fun it can be to tease out the right words/meaning from something. I really would have been a very happy copyeditor in another universe.
But there's a whole laundry list of shit that I need done, not polished, and the problem with engaging Editing Brain is that it's hard to convince it that I can live without absolute perfection for a while. You can't polish an empty document, asshole! Get the words on the page first and then worry about the details later.
#most of what I need to do is like. stupid sql queries and form building.#I have a decade of experience at my job. I know those workflows in my sleep.#but I don't grok the processes at this new agency that well. and I don't feel confident in my ability to build the tools they need.#and the clock is ticking.#ugh.#nattering#[redacted work bullshit]#literacy was a mistake

ngl its a limited way of interacting with media if you can only engage with it thru the lens of projection. not saying this is a 'lesser' form of engagement or its 'wrong'—im not going to act obtuse, to some extent, we all project our lived experiences onto the media we like so we form a deeper attachment to it. thats completely normal, thats what art is supposed to work but eventually, you'll hit a wall with a piece of media you wont able able to slot in your own lived experience with the story or characters. sometimes. the choices that you (the viewer) would make, will be incompatible with the choices that blorbo (the character) would make. which thats fine, sometimes the characters can't be extensions of you (the viewer) and thats fine.
#slank-screams🗯️#relating to a character /=/ as projecting onto it btw im not saying that lmfao#its like hmm... best way to describe it is that people forget that the characters dont solely exist to be 'just like me fr'#but theyre written to be independent entities with their own wants/needs/likes/dislikes#and they're tools to help tell a story's greater narrative#resonating with a characters struggles - their backstories - their experiences isnt inherently projection#but when you completely disregard the aspects of the characters that ~differ~ from your lived experiences or your emotions#or say that the choices you (the viewer) would make under the guide of blorbo (the character) would make#thats when i tend to get ticked off

because it's spring and my biggest ops are arriving in stores:
reminder that if you live in north america, do not plant lily of the valley, orange daylilies, bradford pears, japanese barberry, or english ivy.
they are invasive, they will choke out everything else and spread like crazy, and they are evil. find a native solution! even a non-native, but non-invasive solution is better; but native plants will greatly benefit local pollinators and not destroy your garden beds!
(there are a litany of other invasive plants that make my fall to my knees and shake my fists to the sky in home depot when I see them for sale, but these are my Main Personal Enemies.)
#if lily of the valley has zero haters I AM DEAD!#that and those fucking daylilies#i ripped them all out last spring and like the ghost of christmas past already they are returning to mock me#just me and my garden tools against the world#japanese barberrys literally host ticks and increase risk of lyme disease i hate them

i love when i go on a worldbuilding tangent with a character and just add a whole new goofy dimension to their character. Like ok. i have an OC who is a sort of undead mummy thing. he got mummified by victorian occultists and the reanimation rituals didnt kick in until some teenagers found him by total accident in a warehouse in like, the 90s. Anyway the important part is he can spiritually bond with cars
#essentially the thing where your brain treats tools as extensions of your body is more... pronounced for him#and also more literal. And also his brain is magic ghost stuff because his actual physical brain got taken out#tick biz

It’s never fun when you have to throw a project in the bin for things out with your control… here’s the tooled pieces before the accident (yes that round headed knife is sharp- it cuts leather like butter… and will take fingers too.)
Tried a new tool (not the knife), that’s supposed to have been a step up from my previous, cause you know leather tools are EXPENSIVE and instead of making my holes for stitching, it got stuck in my project and Actually tore my 6-7 oz thick tooling leather in the process and it completely shredded the 3-4 oz it was stuck to.
My cheap beginner Tandy ones do not do this. I’ve hand sewn 13 oz leather after using them to make my holes, and NEVER have I had to actually torque and twist my leather to get those punches out. A light pull is all it takes.
I then tried them on 3-4oz only and they also got stuck and refused to let go of the leather.
Like???
So yeah- bought a more expensive tool ages back, finally had the gumption to try it and it screwed me over.
Whomp whomp.
Will revisit this one later, but I’m working on a different project now.
#artists on tumblr#leather tooling#art#leather carving#this was a pouch/wristlet#I am ticked#the wasted leather and time#and the wasted money#leather is EXPENSIVE

Me right now: "The Smitten is just like me for real."
Like???? I hope not??????
#lile god i hope he isn't??? i hope I'm not like that???#...ok i do be like that to a degree i can't lie#like haha i understand your intense need to die a great death for someone you love and your preoccupation with the chase but not the result#and your immense disregard for yourself as a person which leads you to or perhaps is the consequence of transforming into a tool#a role and an object but it's never enough is it and you'll never be enough will you? and the clock on the wall it keeps on ticking#and you repeat 'this is how it's supposed to be'. and if you look inside yourself you will see that there is no yourself to look in.#if you look inside yourself you will find a shadow in the body of someone else#like ah boy just like me you subscribe to the Folk story but there is no curtain to roll when the dragon is slain#you get the girl and what then? if you don't die then what then? maybe if you destroy yourself enough you will achieve something#maybe if you tear your chest open the curtains will fall. otherwise the only thing left is 'what am i supposed to do?'#the one thing that I pray we don't have in common is his tendency to make caricatures of people in his head#like uuuuuuuuuuuhhhhhh i hope i don't do that.#which reminds me kinda funny how people were giving him way more slack when just Dam//sel existed. like i disliked him more back then#because The Da//msel is VISCERALLY horrifying to me. cannot stress how physically nauseous the chapter makes me#which might sound ironic considering I'm the biggest pioneer of 'boooo if anyone ever gets to know the real me I'm packing my bags#and leaving. nobody is allowed to interpret me the correct way. if you know me you don't. i hope you misunderstand every word i say.'#but i see a very thick line between not understanding me and between making up an idealised smooth harmless caricature of me#that you attempt to shove me into. like. the song The Projectionist by Aurelio Voltaire is what I'm referring to#and that's horrifying to me. like ah no not again please. a few times in my life was enough.#I'd say that simply 'not understanding' is Spec//tre and TPA//TD. And those routes are depressing#but not horrifying. they're like 'haha oh god that's me. don't mind my tears.' but Dam//sel is like...genuine horror. to me.#and HA//E actually made my opinion of Smi//tten better because like no no I get him. I also get H//AE Prin//cess. like haha that's me. ow.#Like haha girl the way you are incapable of saying the words 'i want' and cannot bear to say what you feel or think because you aren't#supposed to; it isn't what you should do; you should cave in and make others happy; don't you WANT to make others happy and who#gave you the right to even want something anyway; well it reminds me of the mirror in my house

Was having so much fun replaying p3p that I forgot that this game is bad lol
#the klock keeps ticking#i gotta get my ranting gear on its happening again#just got to the part where its revealed that shadow experiments happened at the school 10 years prior#and yeah its as badly written as I remember lol#like first off it really is just kinda like ‘ah yes the kirijo group experimented on kids and created the dark hour and we’re being#recruited to clean up their mess’ and the only one who seems to care is yukari but then like#oooh she cant be mad after all cuz her dad was in on it or whatever#and my favorite fucking guy Ikutski is there with a smile like ah yes yes the fucked up shit ah well anyways lets keep fighting lol#and its like briefly mentioned so fucking casually that mitsurus family involved her in this shit and forced her to awaken to a persona#when she was like 8 and you know. now she has to act as a tool to clean up their mess#and it’s like hold up now. why arent we talking about this aaaaaaa just gonna drop that bomb and leave#my favorite fucking part though is like afterwards all the little scenes we get of the characters processing this information#none really seeming to care all that much about the fucked up part theyre just like ‘damn the dark hour is gonna end’#and we get some of that iconic p3 dialogue where characters just look into the camera and explain their trauma before walking away#akihiko just goes up to shinji to be like ‘hey lol remember that we’re both orphans and thats how we know each other and also my sister#anyway Keep Looking Forward™️ bye’ and then fuuka looks into the camera like#‘yes btw my parents have an inferiority complex and thats why they abuse me which is why i dont mind being manipulated’#like she just. says that its so funny this game was written by a toaster#its so frustrating cuz the conflict could be so interesting but they handle it soooo boring and ignore all the parts that shouldnt be#oh mitsuru dont worry ill write you a better game to be in#come to the fat lesbian party where we kill the kirijo group with hammers

Two songs that make my body ascend towards the astral plane:
Tool's song Parabol transitioning to the sick riff in Parabola.
Hades' guitar riff going from 2nd to 3rd Phase in the game.
#dia talks#hades#tool#i fucking love guitar riff drops i love u guitar riff drops I am forever in NIrvana whenever I hear Parabol/a's transition#Lateralus is indeed my favorite album just for those two songs alone (and also because Ticks n Leeches is in the album too that song fucks)

Oh and to be clear with my beastieball team building I have gone into the game basically completely blind so I am just working off of what I've seen within the game for hypothetical team building
#rat rambles#I Really need to look into the various ocean beasties more I know very little abt how they play#Im also starting to feel like what I rly need is a much more pure tank sort of unit#because while stalling can back me in a corner rn I also am sometimes able to stall enough to back back out of the corner#so if I could do that more consistently and with less need for constant pivots that could be something#and in situations in which youre underleveled stalling power is usually more valuable than firepower#since y'know. your firepower isn't very powerful and if you dont have stalling power then you just sort of instantly die#but firepower still is very important you just need to be able to stay alive while you chip#I think rly my favorite thing so far has been learning how the battle ais tick and trying to manipulate it through observation#which is again why my team has been a very pivot heavy team as its often about cycling through guys with different weaknesses to keep the#opponents attention off of my main chip damage in any given fight#so yknow thank god I haven't encountered another trap team yet#again this isnt ideal for me since my guys very much do not benefit from the conatant pivoting#well ok one of the weakness trio does but the other two very much do not like not being able to set up#in particular nikola my moth guy who is a valuable pivot tool and does ok damage but is definitely the standout as the most replaceable#mostly because he is basically completely incapable of utilizing any of his gimmicks since he spends so little time on the field#which the only reason I kept him on the team during the initial planning phase of the team was that I figured he could synergize with#gossmann (the dragonfly) and ideally be a decent set up dps#but he ultimately just never gets the room to set up so he ends up being the least interesting to use#because even though my other picky dps struggles a bit with the constant switching they at least get to use their gimmicks#they only need to get into the front row while nikola needs to have room to use set up moves#which he almost never does#I do like him tho dont get me wrong I just think if I need to bring someone new in to remedy some of my issues hes getting the boot#I think I mostly just rly need someone who doesn't need any set up and isnt position picky#just someone to bring some consistency that this team is desperately needing
