I’ve been thinking a lot about the birds of the island, and one thing that sticks out a lot to me is the different types of birds that are spawning around the players. Specifically, the fact that only Philza has had hummingbirds spawned around him.

That doesn’t feel like an accident, right? Like, there’s most likely a meaning there.

After some research into bird symbolism and color theory, I decided to look up the wiki entry for the mob itself, and something interesting stood out to me.

Hummingbirds cannot be tamed

I was drawing some human Cookie Run characters, and I had this random idea of it being all imagined

Like, CRK (specifically since that’s what I’m thinking of) is actually a story made up by a kid with an overactive imagination (said kid being one of our protagonists, probably Gingerbrave), basing it off the people in the town they live in. It could also be someone making a story based off of the town they live in or lived in as a kid

To be honest, I can half see that being something Devsis would pull for an April Fools, like the one that year is “Cookie Run isn’t actually real, it’s just something made up by this kid”. I mean last year they had human characters with Romance Kingdom, so it’s not out of the realm of possibility

Ok so, I've seen a handful of posts featuring the three of them recently and it got me thinking about a fic I kinda want now.

So like, Tim, Jason, and Damian. Something happens (I haven't thought of details, I dunno what exactly) and they end up in a situation where they're on their own for an indeterminate amount of time (see, potentially years) and Team Red basically has to raise Damian. Obviously, no one is thrilled about this turn of events; Damian is not a fan of these two brothers and the feeling is pretty decidedly mutual. No one wants to be here but there really isn't any other option.

Now, aside from the obvious "trying to take care of/raise a kid who strongly dislikes and refuses to respect us", maybe there's some tension with the other two as well. Jason and Tim get along; they're pals, fond of eachother, they hang out. But maybe there's some underlying stuff that they never really dealt with and they just tend to... Pretend isn't there when they hang out usually. They're not around eachother all the time, it doesn't have to come up. Why say anything and risk upsetting the other? But now they are together all the time. In a stressful situation. Living in the same house.

And so like, y'know. They have issues, they make mistakes, things come to light, and by the time they get home/get the family back/whatever it is, they've talked and fought and cried and worked through their shit and are closer than anyone would have ever thought they could get.

If I think of a swedish equivalent of Simón, I think about someone from Gothenburg

The world exists in such a baffling state of simultaneous sex-aversion and sex-hegemony. Every social platform on the internet is trying to banish sex workers to the shadow realm but I can't post a tweet without at least two bots replying P U S S Y I N B I O. People are self-censoring sex to seggs and $3× but every other ad you see is still filled with half-naked women. Rightwingers want queer people arrested for so much as existing in the same postal code as a child and are also drumming up a moral panic about how teenage boys aren't getting laid enough. I feel like I'm losing my mind.

Friendly reminder that you should

Write that fic

Draw your OC

Redesign that blorbo

Plan that comic how you want

Create the content you want to see

Be cringe

Be free

The only thing that matters is you having fun! Not what others think!

I will forever be obsessing over Laios imaging himself as a wolf (a dangerous animal, and one that is [albeit falsely] associated with loneliness) and Marcille imagining him as a cute dog. It shows how negatively he thinks of himself after his fight with Shuro, and how even if he worries now that he's a nuisance to people/can't fit in, NOBODY PERCEIVES HIM THIS WAY. HE'S JUST A SILLY GUY. MARCILLE ASSOCIATES HIM WITH THE DOG BECAUSE HE'S LOYAL AND LOVEABLE.

calling my lover "mine" but not in the way that my toothbrush or notebook are mine, mine in the way my neighborhood is mine, and also everybody else's, "mine" like mine to tend to, mine to care for, mine to love. "mine" not like possession but devotion.

The manga industry, especially JUMP, needs to hurry up and do away with weekly scheduling for mangaka. There needs to better regulations put into place for their health and safety because this is pitiful. Two weeks - monthly updates should’ve already been the standard for the manga industry at this point. These money grabbers will only continue to put the lives of these artists at stake for the sake of capitalism unless some serious changes are implemented.

While looking for something I found an older Ryoko Kui Blog and there's some proto-dungeon meshi art there. I've seen these around before but didn't know the source!

I'm not sure if the last comic is related but it was in the same post titled ダンジョンRPG的な (Dungeon RPG-Like according to google) from 2012

btw, just putting it out there that my hope for the Helluva Boss endgame is Stolas abdicating his Royal title and privileges and going to live with Blitzø and working for IMP as their accountant.

Clearly, they have a lot of paperwork that they currently push onto one of their assassins (Full Moon) and Stolas has been established as a nerd who loves reading loads of boring paperwork (Oops).

It would also tie in nicely with the conversation they had as kids (The Circus), and make it serve as very cute if on-the-nose foreshadowing.
