reading what happened to season two of 'the real adventures of johnny quest' really is like. the nightmare fucking scenario. you make one season of a show where you try to bring back an old pulp show but turn it into something grounded and cool without the racism or sexism but with real cool science, and then season two they just hand it over to some guys who are like "yeah we're going to bring the racism and sexism back, also real science sucks so everything is magic now"
#original#this explains something that always confused me which is that i really liked the good episodes but the bad episodes were pure garbage#it was like two different shows#and that's because it functionally was!!#IMAGINE DECIDING THE INDIAN GUY NEEDS TO HAVE HINDU MAGIC POWERS AGAIN. IN THE NINETIES.#season one had race bannon decide to stop working for the cia for ethical reasons and season two is like 'no he loves the cia'

Also increasingly aware that a LOT of people "manage" getting through the 40+ hour work week by sleeping less than is healthy and relying on stimulants like coffee and energy drinks to keep them going.
For people who are unwilling or unable to do this...work really does just dominate your life. Like we really should not have to rely on unhealthy practices just to have a social life or keep on top of housework or whatever.
I know I post about this a lot but I'm so TIRED all the time and it's just so depressing that this is how we're expected to spend the one life we have.
#i have to get at least 8 hours of sleep a night to even barely function#with sleep#getting ready for work#commute#cooking#and errands#I typically have maybe 2-3 hours to actually do what i want in a day#and I'm usually too tired to actually do the things i want to do#and that's with a very short commute#if i actually had a long commute I'd basically do nothing but work#i see my friends like once every few weeks or months#because we're all so fucking busy with work and have such little time for socialising#and none of us even have kids or anything!!

i lied. here's a bonus.
#artwork#wd gaster#gaster#undertale#deltarune#i had to compensate for the awful shape of his head in the other one#it's surprisingly difficult to draw him looking down#the way the whiteboard functions doesn't help#oh my. look theres a sweet gentleman on the screen#dont mind him - just getting done with morning rituals#there is one thing missing though (it's a kiss)#(give him a good morning kiss)#listen its your fault for smooching the old man because it became part of the routine and now it's mandatory#he will be extra sluggish otherwise

#gravity falls#gf theseus' guide#billford#stanford pines#bill cipher#stanley pines#mabel pines#dipper pines#m.png#THIS WASNT SUPPOSED TO TAKE ALL WEEK AAGH#cool thing i did where i took these characters who i cant draw from any angle but the front and then have them turning around CONSTANTLY#not just views from different angles either! active turning! im a genius!#i feel like you can tell which shots were drawn on different days sadkfhlgljaskg this killed me. i was gonna clean up the bgs but fuck that#theyre functional on a basic level and that is all we need#anyways can you believe the notorious line is only in the fic because an eagle eyed editor (not myself) caught it just before it was delete#and started screaming until it got put back#also the way stump came over while i was making this and was like 'oh right. i ship them' at the way i made bill flirt lmao#it hits different in the visual!#alright now i gotta fucking haul ass on the chapter 8 one

How did Treasure Planet manage to come up with the greatest aesthetic in all human history? Victorian elegance plus space-age flair, with just enough dirt and grime and wear and tear to make it feel real? A combination of traditional and computer animation that perfectly embodies the movie's blend of old and futuristic? How does it get any better than that?
#treasure planet#turned it on on a whim#because sylvia's lovers put me in the mood for sailing ship vibes#and it turns out it fits in really well with the north and south space opera i've been thinking about again#it's really hard for me not to give thornton a giant beautiful space sailing ship#(no you can't do it! the point is that they're industrial and purely functional!)#also i've got another post brewing about how treasure planet is an excellent boy's adventure coming-of-age story#and we need more of those because i feel like the genre doesn't exist in the same way these days#but i'm not sure i could say what i mean without getting folks up in arms#so i'm keeping it to the tags

So like. Not what you'd consider "cold" just in general, but rather specifically for where YOU live (for example: 6c/43f might be considered "cold" if you live in Florida). I see a lot of Tumblr users defending the cold on here, so I'm wondering what temperatures they're actually talking about. For me anyway "cold" automatically translates to be anything below freezing - but I'm not fully convinced that 90% of Tumblr is Actually yearning for below freezing temps.
(My ideal temperature range is around 10c-20c, but a bit below 10c can be nice and refreshing as well. Above 20c depends on what I'm doing - and anything above 25c is too much.)
#polls#tumblr polls#Yeah there isn't a lot of temperature range for below freezing but its because anything below 0 more or less feels the same to me.#as in - its all extremely miserable 👎inherently fucked up weather when you function like an ectotherm#you can complain about the lack of below freezing options if you want but this is a poll made for Me and those nuances just dont mean much#(to my anyway). i LIVE somewhere that regularly gets -10c and -20c temps but it STILL feels basically the same to like. -4.#though i will admit extreme cold does sometimes feel a bit more bitter and pinchy. and like i am on the verge of dying.#also its Celsius first because believe it or not im one of the 10 people on tumblr who lives outside of the states

Curly mood
#when you’re functioning on two hours of sleep and going through a midlife crisis and don’t even want to be here but have to get stuff done#Everyone out here drawing curly as a hot hunk meanwhile I draw him as a sleep deprived disheveled wreck of a man#Leaving the speech bubble blank because Curly’s words are empty anyway#captain curly#curly mouthwashing#mouthwashing#MW#curly#fanart#artists on tumblr#myart

Even after learning their secret identities, the hero community always insisted that there was something inhuman about the bats. No one doubted that their intensive training had a lot to do with it, but it never quite explained how they could evade a Kryptonian's super senses, how they could melt into shadows, how they could function so long with little food, little rest, little oxygen if need be. Most people dismissed their uneasy feelings, but there was something strange about the bats, something uncanny, something that made them different from the arrows and other vanilla human members. And, slowly enough that no one really noticed, it was getting stronger.
Until one day, during a diplomatic meeting with the ruler of the Infinite Realms, when High King Phantom turned to Batman and his brood and literally brightened. "Oh! I didn't know you had liminal members!"
Or: through a variety of factors (proximity to death, their own death/near death experiences, exposure to the Lazarus Pits, the favor of Lady Gotham, immersion in Gotham's own cursed ambient ectoplasm, being a close knit group who continued to expose eachother, etc.) the batfamily have been becoming liminal/ecto-contaminated without noticing. The powers they're developing have been subtle, and align with the skills they expect to have, so no one brought it up when they started being able to hold their breath beyond human limitations, or got so sneaky that they literally seemed invisible, or had a lucky miss when they expected a bullet to go right through them. And they always exuded an unsettling aura of fear, so no one else thought anything was out of the ordinary either. By the time they meet Danny, Gotham counts as one of the most fiercely defended ghost haunts on the planet, with so many territorial liminals patrolling the streets.
#bruce is probably pretty upset that he and all his kids are now noticably undead#also alfred stopped aging at some point and seems to be functionally immortal and noone really thought about that either#danny is able to explain so much shit to them#a lot of stuff that they thought was just normal vigilante behavior because 'hey we all do it' turns put to be very definitively ghost shit#I'm imagining them having something close to ghost powers but less flashy#like maybe they can't go fully invisible but they can meld into shadows well enough that they functionally are#and they can't become intangible at will but they can get potentially harmful strikes to pass through them#they have a common suite of powers because of the way they trained together but some of them develop unique skills#Barbara gets a bit of technopathy and Cass gets shadow travel and Jason has the strongest intimidation aura that sort of thing#dpxdc#dp x dc#danny phantom#dc#batfam#my rambles#my writing#edit: fixed a typo lol

Sylus is for those who are seeking someone who can be genuine and honest with them. That will put them and their relationship first and wont betray the same trust that is given.
Sylus is for those who are scared of being loved completely. The ones who believe they have a dark side and want someone who will still stand by their side and love them still the same.
Sylus is for those who sometimes need help and can’t ask for it. He would do the things, guide you or simply accompany you through it all.
Sylus is for those who struggle to see a bright side of themselves, but he will remind you time and time again how a wonderful person you are. In his eyes, there is nothing more precious than you.

#it’s too early for this. I know. but I had the wildest dream and I woke up sobbing because Sylus 😭😭😭😭😭😭#i need a moment#this applies to my dream and my dream only but I needed to put it out so I could function properly for the rest of the day#i have a vision#love and deepspace#love & deepspace#omi.ds#sylus qin#l&ds#lads shin#lads sylus#sylus x reader#sylus x mc#sylus x you#sylus x y/n#lads headcanons#my hcs

I don't care about data scraping from ao3 (or tbh from anywhere) because it's fair use to take preexisting works and transform them (including by using them to train an LLM), which is the entire legal basis of how the OTW functions.
#really tired of seeing posts warning people to archive lock their works to protect against scraping#information wants to be free and that includes your second person reader insert#you are of course welcome to archive lock the works#that's a function of ao3 for a reason#but the anti-scraping attitude is exhausting because it tells me#that the broad understanding of 'fair use' is dismal#which is depressing coming from the userbase of a site that is totally reliant on fair use

#911edit#911#911 abc#buddieedit#buddie#evan buckley#eddie diaz#my edit#hanna.gif#favorite underrated moment from s7#i feel like i mostly just disregard this season because too much of it is just so stupid and it don't wanna validate the shitty writing#but it was actually really interesting the way eddie approached this whole situation#+ the moving too fast thing with marisol in the beginning of the season#it doesn't really get acknowledged other than bobby's little 'you haven't talked about her like you're ready to live with her' comment#but eddie was not even slightly emotionally invested in that relationship yet they were acting was like they had been together for years#he was sooo comfortable in the functions of a long term partnership even if the center of it was completely hollow#which i think parallels his feelings here. buck asks him twice what he wants in this season and both times he cannot give a real answer
