i saw taemin in helsinki!!!
can i rant for a minute? fans requested 'sexuality' but taemin said he wanted to sing a(nother) ballad as the last song, then people screamed “nooo!!”???? excuse you? i felt so bad for him, like what the fuck? /end of rant
also: why does every site hate hdr? this video looks so much better on my phone
#taemin#taemin helsinki#ephemeral gaze in helsinki#nonsims#also the… etiquette? of people in the pit? awful#two girls pushed their way from wayy back to in front of me (i was like 2nd row before they came)#they were short though (not said in a derogatory way) so it wasn’t an issue#but then they - like so many others - recorded with their phones up in the sky#this was my first pit experience#and i’m sure this is not only the case for kpop concerts#but goddamn i dislike kpop fans#not only because of this but#how they behave? it feels so competitive and ungenuine somehow? idk#not everyone is like this of course#shawols tend to be a very nice fandom#but the people around me in the pit felt like (only) solo taemin fans 🤢#also i understood everything he said (in korean)!#and was i the only one who felt the translator kind of.. translated his words very flat?#he said them so much more colorful if that makes sense? than what was translated#not me screaming/chanting btw#im too awkward to make any noise when recording hahaha#my videos

do you think the reason agatha’s trial felt weird is because she was the only one who did not actually buy into the mythos of the road since she knew the truth? like that was why no perspective change and all the other reasons why people thought it was a fake trial
#agatha all along#aaa spoilers#txt#i really liked the idea behind how the witches road came to be#like showing her and nicky coming up with the lyrics and everything#but i felt like there was a lot of these last two episodes that felt weird or jarring#i think that’s partly the fault of it being such a short run time for the whole show in general (tbh that’s probably like most of it)#but there were just also weird choices? idk#like jen’s big declaration about protecting them in honor of Lilia or w.e and then just.. flying off to nowhere??#or the way Both billy and agatha kept switching how they felt about each other with like every sentence#I did really like her thing where she helped him get tommy a body though#and her and rios vibes were off too. like it felt like there should have been a little more build up before they fought after the road?#like when they were still talking on the road it felt like they could have done more with it#just like jen getting her powers back could have been more#or billy standing up for agatha could have been more#billy’s homecoming and attempting to banish agatha too#I liked that his parents were there but it was so quick and then he just.. leaves again?? no problem?? and I guess they’re fine with it now#like it felt like the things they did well. they did really well#while everything else felt.. idk.. kinda flat?#which honestly was the same feeling I had after watching agatha’s trial episode#honestly this show need at least another 3 or 4 episodes if not more#and I know people are going to make this all about agatha and rio but i really don’t think that’s the issue#i do think the story could have benefited more from showing more of their actual backstory or a few more interactions with them or just#like i said earlier done more with what they had. again that scene on the road before rio dips could have been used way more effectively#and I don’t mean in like having them be soft or lovey like I know a lot of people wanted (never be against that) but I don’t think it was#needed.. but Something was??#i feel like overall what everyone went through on the road didn’t actually truly effect them or change them?#like jen left. agatha and rio were like back to liek the road never happened. everyone else but billy is dead#i think the only person who was truly changed was maybe billy?#which makes the whole journey feel so unsatisfying? like things could still have ended the same while still showing them changed? idk

#Legend of Korra#LoK#Baatar Jr.#WIP#[ this is what happens when you don't feed your horse properly#your palm should be flat and open so they cannot bite you smh and Kuvira calls herself a horsegirl#it has been a hot minute since I drew Baatar I've missed him SO MUCH#I support this man's rights and his wrongs especially when he is biting people#and one thing about Baatar is that he will bite the hand that feeds him#(even affectionately)#this was a nice little thing to do as drawing has been so hard lately between work and everything my skills have felt so rusty#one of the most common comments I used to get on my Baatar art was people saying they wanted him to bite them#and that they liked how I drew his teeth#and let me tell you I felt so seen haha I am glad we are all on the same pages :) ]#Neon Ocean Art

Not sure if this is how to request correctly but I come Bearing Ideas
Concept: Reverse isekai mothman? You attempt to hide an eldritch horror of the abyss in your apartment, but all he wants is to snuggle New Friend (whether he recognises New Friend as the person behind the screen or not I'll leave it up to you :D)
ohh my goodness i'm squirreling away this idea and putting it on my shelf of favorite things
here's a sight you never possibly thought you'd witness: Foul Legacy sitting on your bed, tilting his head curiously as Genshin runs on your computer beside him. you had only left to get a glass of water, that's it, and yet those few minutes had apparently been enough for Childe's Abyssal form to get whisked from the game world to your room. carefully, you set your cup down so you can't drop it in shock, and Legacy watches your every move before standing from his place on your bed and slowly approaching you. he delicately sniffs the hand you hold out, then bumps his head against it like an affectionate cat, letting out a happy trill when he sees your hesitant smile
there's a vague sense of familiarity that Legacy feels when he's around you, like he's met you before but can't quite recall when and where. you feel safe; a kind, comforting presence in this strange new world he's in- when you're home Legacy is always a few steps behind you, fluttering his wings and chirping when you turn to look at him, and when you have to leave he follows you until you wave goodbye and shut the door. you do your best to act as normal as possible, as if you're not hiding an Abyssal monster who is twice as tall as you and definitely should be fictional in your apartment, since your neighbors can be incredibly nosy- Legacy accidentally broke a vase once and your downstairs neighbor came to investigate, looking at you suspiciously when you assured them that everything was just fine
you also have to get used to how wonderfully affectionate Foul Legacy is. you live alone, no pets allowed, so having a heavy moth-creature lay his head on your lap whenever you sit down is jarring at first. but he doesn't mind- he'll show you where he likes being scritched and pet best!! it's behind his horns and under his chin, and when he curls around you on a bad day, it feels like he's repaying you for keeping him safe, gently nuzzling against your cheek until you take a nap beside him, nestled into his warm embrace
...he's really not sure if he ever wants to go back to Teyvat
#genshin impact#childe#tartaglia#foul legacy#foul legacy childe#genshin tartagalia#genshin childe#genshin tartaglia#chit chat#anon#i would be so down to write a full piece about this but i had to get some brainrot out#yeah if there's a chance to go back to teyvat he's going to be so torn#he wants to you come with him#because he's never felt so loved before#but you can't just leave your previous life behind#he's incredibly curious of everything#squints and tilts his head at all the characters on screen when you play genshin#especially if he knows who they are#he wonders if you can get them out because they seem trapped in that weird flat machine of yours#short scenario#other's stuff#good evening :)#FAVE

more 1:1 references of one of crystaahhl's oldest dance videos! this one was a bit tougher mostly because she was moving so quickly, but the outfit is so cute it was a blast to draw :)
#very fun :) my favorite part is getting to the base colors cuz everything looks so clean#and yes I did the fishnets by hand they came out pretty good!!#if I felt more inspired I would've spent longer on shading but I was pretty satisfied with flat colors so I just did a quick and dirty job#ann takamaki#persona 5#p5#persona dancing#art#drawing

my neighbour below me got ‘locked out’ of his flat (the literal door handle broke lol) & he rang my buzzer & asked if i had a screwdriver so i went down there & was like omg hello owo here’s ur driver & i met him for the first time & he is indeed a boy 😭😭 so i was helping him by providing moral support i.e. offering to help him cut the door down as i’ve a saw, & then i remembered alllllllll the fuckin chicken wire i’ve left over from trying to make gloria a lid & we managed to make little hooks & fish out parts but it turns out the turning mechanism is what broke not the bolt so we just had to. turn the lil washer in front 😭😭😭
#stream#he was out there for like 2hrs total & i went there like after 30 mins 😭😭😭😭#ALSKALKSLAKSKKSLS he’s so fucking funny i was looking in his room like WHAT U HAVE A CHANDELIER ??? UR DRAPES ACTUALLY WORK ????? AND UR#BLINDS ???? 😭😭😭😭 ALSKALKSLAKSLAKSLAKSLAKS#but to be fair he had black mould so bad that it literally. ate his wall & they had to remove the whole internal wall ALSKALKSALKSLKSALALALA#BUT HE DOESNT HAVE A WINDOW IN HIS BATHROOM SO. HE GETS ANY PRIVACY AT ALL.#there are 3 ‘rooms’ in my house the main portion that’s the bedroom then there’s a door to the kitchen & then on the other side of the#kitchen is a door to the bathroom#there’s 2 windows in the bedroom 1 on each half & then there’s a window in the kitchen that looks directly at the bathroom door & then in#the bathroom there’s another window that looks into the bathroom ALSKALSKLAKALASLAKSLAKSLA#like 😭😭😭😭#I LITERALLY HAVE NO PRIVACY THERES A REASON I HAD TO MAKE THE ROOM DIVIDER OTHER THAN TO SPLIT A BEDROOM#it’s so funny to me but still i love the amount of light that the flat gets#it’s very nice i mean yea the sun goes down at 4.30 but for all the time it’s out im getting solid sunlight in here it’s lovely#‘house’ my glorified studio#idk i don’t like the word ‘home’ for a domicile#like it’s not ‘home’. i’m not home. home is texas lol#take me back to the SWAMP#i still think abt a few months ago when the shitty uni halls were pressure washing everything bc My Birds shit EVERYWHERE & it felt like#mould & dirt#smelled like#& wet & earthy & just omg i was soooo happy it smelled sooo NICE i loved it it was just like being home#it made me so happy

oh my god I know like it sounds weird to say this when it's just avatar but the original show has aang go back to the southern air temple to show katara and sokka his home only to find evidence of the genocide of his people and the loss of his loved ones and it's quiet until you see his grief and his rage but you just see the aftermath a hundred years later and the netflix adaptation makes it feel like they wanted it to be a cool action movie with an epic scene showing the fighting and running of the airbenders like that side by side with aang running away and it's like ??? okay it's "darker" congratulations I can see that's what the goal is based on the differences in firebending and early on screen deaths go and focus on every bit of violence for the audience's lazy sadistic pleasure instead of any of the characters personal narratives especially the women that can all be taken right out + the discovery of different places all over the world in the earth kingdom and outside of it. put everything in omashu so they don't get to meet people and see the diversity of the world and each town and SEE what life is like for them under war and have these experiences with all these people build up to something bigger at the end
#changing the order of when the audience discovers new information in favor of a more linear storytelling was a bad idea#it came off as so bizarre like adding in these types of scenes so that it's just cooler and more intense#when the original show had 20 min long episodes 20 episodes per book not much time was needed. but so much was missed in the live action?#because they had to add and drag out things like this that just feel wrong#and it's not very good every event in the live action felt very smushed together like no scene stood out no contrast just the same level#of flatness all around you dont even get a chance to really feel anything about what happens on screen#when everything happens so surface level and without much real emotion it just happens so something can happen after that and so it can end#it felt like watching a bad movie everything that gave the cartoon any meaning was taken away#adding in that weird airbenders genocide scene towards the beginning but leaving out katara's inspiration of haru and those earthbenders#was it not cool enough did it take too much away from sokka's romance plotlines#one of the most important book 1 katara episodes#it felt like the natla script was written by people who are writing from memory based on what they watched 10 years ago

Watched Conclave. Don't think I understand it the way yall did but that's okay.
#brieuc.txt#It just got very Hollywood in the last act#And I... think that reveal should have gotten more time and space and exploration than it got#The majority of the film felt like Catholicism from an insiders perspective and then it rapidly shifted to outsiders#which potentially was the point but it felt very desynced#because everything was played so intensely and seriously and with all the political maneuvering the fantasy of delivering one speech#and suddenly everyone is on your side fell very flat to me#but I dunno

on the bright side i’ve figured out how to make auto actions in csp and made one each for a blur/noise filter and chromatic aberration. with the goal of looking like a screenshot of something from cartoon network in the 2000s
it took So Much trial and error to get the chromatic aberration to work well but once i learned that the auto action can only happen to one layer at a time i got it down pat
#it feels a little silly to say but i felt really smart while i was figuring it out#the noise effect was easy. the chromatic aberration wasn’t#auto actions only record making a new layer; changing layer modes; making correction layers; changing a layer’s settings; transforming. etc#you can’t record drawing anything or like making a fill or applying a texture unless it’s perlin noise afaik#normally to do chromatic aberration you make 3 copies of your final drawing; clip pure RGB layers to each. one red. one green. one blue#all of the values at 255 for the given color and 0 for the other 2. set the color layer to multiply. merge each with their drawing#so you have 3 layers of your drawing in R G and B#set the top 2 to screen and then start offsetting them however you like depending on how strong you want the effect to be#bwammm#to get recordable steps for auto action i had to do everything to each color layer at once#copy the drawing. so the action is COPY. new correction layer gradient map; i made 3 gradient maps that were flat R B G#like not actually maps. but that was the easiest way i could think to get a ‘fill’ in an auto action#next clip it and set it to multiply. merge. then i had to offset it w/o being able to see what it’d look like at the end#since auto actions only work on the ‘top’ layer. you can’t hop between layers. you can only work in one direction#so to make sure the aberration looked right i did a test run and counted out the pixels transformed in each direction for each color layer#like when zoomed in 4 times from base R goes up 3 left 1; B down 2 right 4. etc#so id just know how to transform each layer while i was recording the action and id get a reliable aberration with a halo i liked#the auto action doesn’t include merging everything at the end bc that scares me. so i can always just edit the offsets on each color layer#for future uses of the action. but. i like knowing i got a reliable recording of a good offset on each color#i can just make a drawing look like it came from the 2000s in 2 clicks now!#2 clicks!!! i got it!! i’ve tested it on a few drawings and it just works!! two clicks!!!#i’m proud of a lot of parts of this lineup. i might talk about it more on here or insta for funsies#i like breaking down my own art. i think a lot of technical artists do#god there’s a reason my mom thinks i should be an art teacher 😭😭😭#i talk

#i will warn you only once: tsc spoilers#literally just finished it as i am drafting this its 5am where i live#so you may be subjected to some nonsense#that all being said i have thoughts.and feelings#the kevin was lovely and tasted delicious! jean defending him at every turn even when he swears to hell and back he'll kick his ass#the kevjean was surprising i was only half expecting that#the dog metaphors i have to say i need this one cashed in. nora run me my check#im joking of course dont quote me on it#jean taking kevins promise to the end and living on it is seriously so. well.#'be careful with him' 'take kevin's name out of your ignorant mouth' 'you promised me'#also kevin getting called the court's queen had me tender and on my back oml#jean's relationship with the trojans is sweet and he is very interesting and complicated#a character with many moving parts im sure#there were a few things i did not care for#namely jeremy and the trojans felt remarkably flat to me bar lucas (by far the most interesting) and catalina on occasion#i didnt quite enjoy jeremy's pov and felt like he spent perhaps way too much time worrying over jean? if that makes sense#i wish he had some more complexity to him or really anything to catch a hook on#all we know is hes attractive and smiley and gets along terribly with his family#so much of his character is sucked out by jean he didnt feel like much more than a plot device to me#which i wouldnt mind if jeremy wasnt the literal main character alongside jean#i was living for everything jean thought but had to drag myself through jeremy's pov if im honest#uuuuh what else. neil! funny. deranged. i have to love him#andrew couldnt give less of a fuck about jean which is funny as all fuck#two bugs placed in the same habitat ignoring each other#the thing with elodie i thought was complicated. i wish we knew some more about her or that shed been mentioned a little earlier#but im assuming thats a topic to be revisited#uuuuuuuh yeah so thats most of it. i think my first thought and the one that sticked out the most to me is that the book felt remarkably#pedestrian#not necessarily in a bad way#it lacked to me one of the main appeals of aftg which were the numerous interesting side characters

#I didn’t like longlegs :(#like at all#it kinda fell flat? or maybe I had very high expectations#I kinda get it as a short little story but it felt like they were trying to make it a big thing or whatever but it doesn’t measure up#I don’t know how to explain it#the beginning was good and really promising the visuals and atmosphere REALLY good#like it looked great but the actual movies was kinda meh#i feel like you can say that about a lot of movies recently#i really loved the main character that actress is so good and Nicolas cage too I guess but everything else is meh#I’m trying to piece together some meaning or symbolism and stuff but I don’t know :/#online diary

I could play one of the most beautiful well crafted video games on the planet and it will never be as appealing to me as one that kind of sucks shit but has soooo much potential
#merlin.txt#just finished cyberpunk#i feel like they could have done sooo much more with the concepts they had#the game showed us a bit of everything in the world but i dont think they explored any one topic enough#and they pulled a ton of punches. the ending did not feel like this big 'grab your allies and fuck the corpos' thing it shouldve been#it was mostly just tying up johnnys loose end. one big loop. which i fuck with; but it wasnt rlly anticapitalist at all in that sense#i have a bunch of other thoughts on johnny but ill save it#but god. the beginning (act 1 and the first bits of act 2) where just soooo fucking good#and it rlly felt like it was going to gear up into this huge thing instead of just being one last hurrah for rogue and johnny#AUUUGHH theres just So Much Potential. goddamn#imo i think the major thing is that at some point it stopped being v's story. it was everyone elses#he has Very little agency. which is interesting but man this guy deserves better#when it comes down to it the game Is really shallow. whenever there is any sincerity in themes its very centrist#the fact is you dont rlly meet many characters in game who are Truly working to take down corps except for johnny and he doesnt rlly count#and if there Are its usually played for irony and laughs (looking at kerry) or theyre flat out kind of awful.#judys story is probably the best of the companions bc shes actively trying to help sex workers and its played very positively#i also think two of the main themes (letting go of the past; what it means to die) are Majorly helped by some incredible emotional beats#and w/o some just Really Really good scenes and good repetition of lines and motifs its very tropey.#ok i wasnt going to write a full thing. but let me be clear: i fucking loved this game. i would not be writing so much if i did not love it#the sun ending was Still soooo vindicating. v is still kicking and that's all that matters to me#(it helps that v is a Great protag like one of the Best voiced rpg protags next to hawke da2)#(which is kind of a funny comparison since i think both protags suffer from a lack of agency)#ok im done now

scavenger’s reign is really good, but it didn’t stick the ending for me personally, but idk, maybe i need to give it another watch
#it started to fall flat in the last couple episodes tbh#and it felt like it started a lot of interesting plot threads that didn’t lead anywhere (yet at least)#(i’m assuming there’s gonna be a season 2 based on that ending)#everything else tho was so strong#and i really hope it gets continued because i want more shows like this
