Requests | Update

I'm gonna be doing some B/randenburg P/russia doodles because @doomspiral enabled me so if you want to drop some headcanon or requests in the askbox, now is a good time. I'm leaning towards a theme of: dysfunction vs affection.

while I'm here, let's chit chat

I think I might also be creating a comic master post and I'll link also to any AO3 drabbles that connect those ideas. BTW I still use APH tags because my blog is literally in its teenage years at this point and I don't have time to revamp it. I know there's a lot of old info/broken links, I will try to refresh soon.

Btw, while I am trying to re-connect more with the hetalia fandom, I don't tend to follow back if you're under 20 years old (there are some exceptions depending on blog use. If you are just running a gallery, I might) and I'm 30+ so keep that in mind.

I keep this blog Mostly SFW but can get into mature/dark themes. If you do not want to be exposed to those themes, mute the tag Knight Terrors. Also...please don't send me weird asks asking for odd things with the very young children I draw. I'm not sure what the intentions were with that, maybe I read it weirdly, but if I feel it is in anyway inappropriate, I'm not gonna draw it. I lean towards being pro-ship but absolutely not to that extent.

Also related, but G/ermania head-canon and stuff is primarily me having REALLY bad baby fever and not being a position for motherhood at this point in time. I do not care if you agree and I do not intend for it to be widely accepted fanon. I am only drawing to comfort myself. This is the last time I'm mentioning this lol.

Anyway: Hetalia twitter and Personal Tumblr where I reblog the fandom fanart I want to support. I use this blog to apply for cons and things sometimes so I have to keep it primarily focused on my art.

Thank you everyone for supporting me for all these years, I really value this community and appreciate every kind word. I'm trying to be a bit more active xoxoxoxoxo Assby

#hetalia #hws prussia #aph brandenburg #we're gonna pause on me having baby fever for like six months straight #and do some angst for a bit #before going back to baby fever

Guys, you don't have to ask my permission to draw Ukraine. You can draw her in whatever clothes you want, you can draw her covered in blood and yelling curses, you can draw her in melancholy and Victorian dress, you can draw her in Manchuria hunting tigers, you can draw her in Japanese comic-con, you can draw her and Poland pranking Hungary, you can draw her being not ideal! Don't limit yourself by anyone - neither me nor Himaruya.

I understand that no one has to know the history of Ukraine to the tiniest details, although it would be nice if you considered what kind of relationship Ukraine had at which time with whom. For example, drawing Cossack!Ukraine and RP!Poland as besties will be... a lie. But it's not necessary because people who could have been hurt by it are long ago dead.

The only thing any Ukrainian will find completely unacceptable is Ukraine being russia's sister and liking russia. We weren't their siblings 5 years ago, as well as 10, 20, 50, 100, 500 years ago. That's all.

Written about 2 months ago on Instagram:-

These crime and terror specialists still continue their Nazi death camp tactics and have upped the ante yet again over the past 24- 36 hrs they’ve forced me glued to my fully set up n sabotaged iPhone 8 Plus with primary shadow iph 8 to cloud n App Store still attacking me from every Angel humanly possible. Cloud 1 cloned at least 82 times now over past 7-8 yrs same with clouds 2 & 3 of mine forced/traumatized to create ever in attempted defence. Super cloned old iPad of Avril Serchuks they set me up with this past dec with proven remote apple Mac connected which I incidentally found linked to old Samsung tv’s yrs ago. They’ve hacked me out of my Instagram app entirely and now done the same for my primary Facebook acc disabled my primary outlook and google email accs entirely. Pic profile frame hacking pattern strategy past 7-8 yrs disallowed to remove off my Facebook messenger past 12 hrs. Apparently they stole over £70 million from my Facebook over past 8-12 hrs.

I’ve tried as always to show my unverified google CO’s up for impersonations 3 of which set up linked to 3 Facebook pages that I’ve been hacked out of better part of past 5-6 yrs. Disallowed to do anything in attempted life for so very long defend against brutally vicious 24/7 onslaught attacks. Still gassing me with chemicals contaminating bedroom sabotaging car lacing food and drinks, even singles I now struggle to buy from corner shops all set up ;(

They’ve now confessed to having been working for ‘Siemens and Sputnik’. I’ve uncovered my lucrative North Star and Alfa Romeo contracts that they fraudulently stuck under impersonators names cleverly disguised beneath my Google Fit app Google accs packages (8 namely Wozzleberry78@gm, wozibear78@gm, colonelserchy@gm, warrenesser78@gm, serchuwarren@gm was recently used to embezzle via my primary google CO’s Citiprop Real Estate cloned 3 times to FBook page to Allan Serchuks Close Corporation linked to my Property Portfolios. They also diverged my wozibear78@gm google CO’s Warrens Wozzleberry way & Woz’s Way (pages) via that 7th google acc of which I have now received SARS tax related emails and text messages. Disgusting father tells me to ‘delete the spam cons’. They hacked me out of my 7th Google acc about 2,5 weeks ago for 2 days efforts to steal as much and cover up as always.

Heard them confess earlier that apparently Oren Saban has been impersonating me at the Reading University in UK, renowned for property excellence.

They’ve corrupted MTN again and obtained my only contract sim that was blocked in R70 debt that my father wouldn’t allow me to reclaim.

Mailru was used linked to my Vkontakte account access across Instagram fbook into 02 linkage on safari (Which is my Telkom sim roaming) to Octavius bank accounts in Eastern Bloc Russia.

Btw, Russian Secret Services confirmed murder charges more than 2,5 months ago now on my dominant frequency channel.

They’ve apparently ‘unfrozen’ my 8 yr then ‘suspended’ Barclays Bank accs. HSBC international so very worrying along with all the 14-20 bank accounts set up and created in my name with Fraudster terrorist security protocols in place.

I’ve done my best to try be heard as was forced to vocally and telepathically over the years having reported their heinous crimes since mid 2017 that span back to mid 2016 to date.

I’m relying now that some normal peeps out there who value life, love, family, culture and community and communication, the very essence of what neighbourhood stand for apart from the basic legalities involved. Ground floor basic law of contracts to real rights of ownership. Forced to be ‘lifesaving’ ‘ superhero’ as depicted in the entertainment offerings (netflix, showmax dstv, Saban films, Marvel comics, Empire Records) yet my salaries have been highjacked and stolen by these incorrigible, abhorrent, bloodthirsty telepathic Jew murderers (not to mention pornographers, traffickers and attempted innocent child murderers).

Property Portfolio, Marketing Porrfolios, Investment portfolios, Heath & insurance portfolios, Sponsorships, Salaries, Pension funds with banking portfolios (incl. my 15 yr UK lifesavings and late beloved grandparents inheritance trusts).

My Portfolios belong to the children and elderly families and friends in global neighborhoods whom I’ve been fighting for defending 24/7 past 8 yrs plus. They were meant to be hear by me (special interhemispheral vocal frequency and super synthetic telepathic abilities 8 yrs ago) along with all my contractors, core being Apple,Google, Microsoft, Amazon, Facebook, HP Lenovo, Oracle NVidia Siemens, T-Mobile, 02, MTN, Telkom, Vodafone, Barclays, HSBC, Virgin, Tesco and many more.

Please assist me in bringing these ultimate criminal terrorist villains to justice disallow the next 50 yrs plus of carnage anarchy chaos crime and corruption. The children deserved and deserve the antithesis, the complete opposite…

Further bribery and corruption, fraud, gang rape, embezzlement, slavery, terror attacks to attempted murder…8 yrs plus later…

Heard them confess earlier that apparently Oren Saban has been impersonating me at the Reading University in UK, renowned for property excellence.

They’ve corrupted MTN again and obtained my only contract sim that was blocked in R70 debt that my father wouldn’t allow me to reclaim.

Mailru was used linked to my Vkontakte account access across Instagram fbook into 02 linkage on safari (Which is my Telkom sim roaming) to Octavius bank accounts in Eastern Bloc Russia.

Btw, Russian Secret Services confirmed murder charges more than 2,5 months ago now on my dominant frequency channel.

I’ve done my best to try be heard as was forced to vocally and telepathically over the years having reported their heinous crimes since mid 2017 that span back to mid 2016 to date.

Pre-Law History (War on Terror, UMass-Amherst)

Scenario: The People's Crusade, a media stoked movement.

Response: We need these cows, the Arabs stole our meat.

The First Crusade, the sack of Armenia for holding Slavics as Russian Orthodoxy, Satanists outside the Gypsy gene.

Response: Satan, is a deliberate faith, to be reversed through athletics; not battle, the proper murder, outside of prison's threat of the cell as an athlete.

The Third Crusade, the betrayal of the Jordan River Valley tower, unpaid labor.

Response: Anything on a non-payer commune, is open to a snitch; you need to understand the face of a foe, not the truth. Truth, is outside of money. But money, rules the world, that's a teacher.

The Children's Crusade, the sales of children in the thousands to African slavery in exchange for marijuana seeds and samples, "Houses in Scotland".

Response: "Con Air"; each of you convicts, are a job, and you've been in prison, your entire life. Don't go in with the Africans, you've been raised "black", and they're far older at the game. The Oath of the Italian Mafia; find the Boss, the Don, the Chump. She isn't what she seems.

The Fifth Crusade, Pierre the Coward, the Red Badge of Courage, versus Saladin, the Witch Hunter, the arts war of al-Qaeda.

Response: Starscream, the Decepticons, the Catholics, versus Optimus Prime, the Autobots, the Arabs. This is a rare treat, if you can find Northrup Grumman; the Charleboises.

The Eighth Crusade, the death of the German King, due to heart attack from falling in the Rhine River, forced into place.

Response: Any leadership war, is nothing without the King; but why do you have to have the King, on the spot? He's sacrificed himself, by coming to your quarries. Let Christ be King; Jesus was a pedophile, he saw for himself the ruthlessness of his father. Loose Change.

The Twelfth Crusade, RIchard the Lion-Hearted, the gold trade, in Iranian souls, trapped via captive.

Response: An O'Neill classic, "The Merchant of Venice". The beginning of a brand. "Ave Satani", Tip O'Neill. Are you mine, rule of thumb?

The Thirteenth Crusade, the retaking of Jerusalem by Moslems, the homosexuals bred as soldiers.

Response: Gay Niggers From Outer Space. The illegal play; the Statue of Liberty; DC Comics, a "narcotics officer".

The Iranian resistance against Turks, the assassins, bred on marijuana prenatal exposure, and marijuana hashish oils, butter lipids.

Response: The Nietzschean Society, the King's Men, and EON Productions. The breaker of the rule, is the champion. Friedrich Nietzsche, Adolf Hitler, David Charlebois.

The Mongolian invasion, the conquest of Russia, Mesopotamia, and Vietnam, by Uighurs.

Response: Sell toys, collect children's literature, and protect your women. Three rules, together, a German, the modern anti-Semite.

The Reconquistda, the French Germans, conquering Spain, and allowing Uthman, to return to stature, as a Rabbinical Jude, a business owner and manager.

Response: The Synagogue, is a punishment, unless refused three times; then an Arab, the old Southern Larchy Tune. For the Goyim.

The mince meat pie, the bond between priests and imamis, the beginning of the university, Muslim Shaykhs, college professors, managed by Rabbinicals, salesman, through priests, the homeless managers of the common people into military and police arms.

Response: The whole thing has to be thrown out. Then, you win, because someone, needed your help. Law enforcement, is a tool of a university, and the arrest, is the highschool. Elementary school, picks cops, the track athlete; the shutdown of a banking corporate, because a child, wanted to run away.

The resurrection of Judaism, the victor of the military, as refusing products based on rationing, the bigot to be sided against in war.

Response: The Grand Ol' Party, The United Kingdom, the Nation-State of Israel, the Federal Republic of Russia, and the Assembly of France. The last, John Wick, is post-humous. Is France, ethnic? Or just Jews?

It’s that season, Comic-Con. I continue to get email advertisements seeking my attendance to this iconic subcultural event. I’m not even a fan of comics, fantasy, or other relations within this cultural sphere. Yet, my limited attention to these items does not prevent the Comic-Con publicist from sending me warm emails inviting me to join the festivities. Not that I could ever see myself attending such an event, but, in contrast, what these emails did do was make me think about how alternative Comic-Con started, and yet how popular it has become. With Comic-Con’s punky subcultural origins I was drawn to recount origins of another punky subculture, punk rock. Thinking through punk rock’s dramatic history my thoughts gravitated toward a specific branch of punk rock - pop punk. This minor mental detour led me to question, “can pop punk be positive?"

Punk, as a cultural expression, has the stereotypes of being anti-social, rebellious, often aggressive and a negative discursive agent for a subcultural identity. But are these the only signifiers of punk that apply? Is punk really that limited? Is it possible for punk to be influenced by, and contain a positive faith-centered objective? It may be a surprise to some that the answer to each of these rhetorical questions is a dynamic, “yes.” Following this dialectic agenda, I had to listen – again – to the godfathers of punk, The Ramones. Who better to serve as a megaphone for punk – at the origins of the punk culture, than a band who established themselves at the epicenter of punk and have gone on to be synonymous with the term itself, “punk rock”. Fast, short songs, the model uniform (black leather jackets, cut-up jeans, black t-shirts), and song titles that had the hooks built right-in. Yes, The Ramones clearly cast the definition of what punk was in the 1970s and through to this day (c. 2023).

The founding image and voice of the band, Joey Ramone, had some interesting views about pop and surf music during the dawning days of the punk movement. Joey Ramon’s deep infatuation with surf music and bubblegum pop of the 1960s led to aid in the creation of punk anthems that still ring loud and surprisingly clear today. But were these elements and inspirations too easily overlooked by music journalists, pop musicologists, and fans alike? Again, the answer to these rhetorical questions comes as a surprised, “yes.” Taking that absent lead, set in motion by Joey Ramone, I began to wonder, research, and listen to the prophetic 1977 song, Sheena is a Punk Rocker. This central track to the 1977 Rocket To Russia record, is the kernel of how a punk song was to be formed, produced, expressed. Simple lyrics, short verses, no extra guitar solos, and a hypnotic hook, Sheena started as a punk troupe, but found itself embedded within the hallowed halls of punk history. Given all this context, how does this track, Sheena, outline or draw attention to faith in punk? That’s where the fun begins.

In 1937/1938, Sheena, Queen of the Jungle, a fictional comic character who is a female counterpoint to Tarzan, King of the Jungle, makes her global debut. Equipped with abilities to weave various weapons and enduring the untamed jungle landscapes of Africa, Sheena caught the attention of young comic fans at the time (and had a resurgence in 2007).

Unbeknownst to comic and rock fans alike in the late 1960s/early 1970s, this hypersexualized feminine character was to become the main character in the Ramones song, Sheena is a Punk Rocker. Joey Ramone’s interest in the comic led him to contemplate what Sheena might consider about punk rock. In Joey Ramone’s opinion, Sheena would be a fan, hence the birth of the song title and forthcoming iconic track. Signifying with the developing aesthetics of punk, laced with the sounds of surf and bubblegum pop at the time, The Ramones recorded the song, Sheena, which they coined as the first surf/pop punk song. It’s this positive punk action which rebels against the negative image of punk’s youthful years. It was Joey Ramone himself who said, in a 1988 interview that The Ramones were always a positive band (Harris 1988).

A GQ article in 2020 notes that, “The Ramones took positive[ity]…to a whole new level (Jones 2020)”. Jone’s article continues that The Ramones, “were too postmodern [when they first arrived on the punk scene]…but then at the time the world appeared to be crying out for postmodernism, especially in the music world (Jones 2020)”. To further exemplify this point, Bono – of U2 fame – notes that U2 was formed around the “idea of friendship and shared spirit.. [t]hat was a preposterous notion before the Ramones (Jones 2020)”. Following this trajectory, it is not a far stretch to see how the origins of a faith-based pop punk vernacular could be developed and progress going forward following the undercurrent lead The Ramones did and did not speak of nor draw attention.

Positive punk bands - those aligned with a faith-based centrist value - contextualize their faith within the socio-pop linguistics of pop punk c. 1980/90s California/West Coast surf/pop style. This activation does not reduce the intrinsic faith of the bands, nor their use of punk as a signifier, but rather provides a fruitful platform through which these bands communicate, articulate, produce, develop, and expand the core of their faith.

This pop faith-based punk genre obfuscates the otherwise noted “positive punk” genre which musicologist have recognized as being the forerunner of the goth, emo, and shoegazer genres (NME 1983). Avoiding the pitfalls of a negative punk image, that has become a social stereotype in witness to a general essentialist viewpoint of punk being an anti-social, operating outside assumed cultural norms and in objection to being labeled or reduced to a status quo. The pop punk direction is self-explanatory, “a subgenre of punk utilizing pop culture icons and signifiers.” This conversive angle embraced by pop punk bands allows for the investment of faith within an expressive discourse operating and communicating beyond assumed negative signifiers of punk. A voice in faith, a sound in pop punk, a directive positive agency for audience recognition become the outliners for faith-based punk. There is no shame, no veiled rhetoric, no metaphorical twist or turns for positive faith-based punk bands to express their faith. The fluidity and dynamics of the punk expressive vernacular are fully and creatively embraced. The socio-linguistic realities of punk are re-presented through a positive lens to display – on a growing contemporary platform – the necessity for such faith-based punk sounds to help draw attention to current issues facing younger audiences and their balance of social pressures with core faith values.

Faith-based punk bands continue to outsell other “authentic” or “pure” punk bands and genres (2023). Electing not to be limited to the acceptance from the scripted stereotypes of the punk genre, faith-based punk situates itself in a counter antisocial perspective - functioning outside perceived historic punk norms. This methodology allows faith-based punk groups to operate freely of the punk industry mechanics, focus on positive actions to issues facing their audiences, and fortify their own faith through the binary agency of punk vernacular and core faith expression. Founding bands such as Squad Five-O, Slick Shoes, Dogwood and Pocket Change helped pave the road for other bands such as Relient K, FM Static, Flatfoot 56 and This Providence, to speak toward, encourage, and develop a punk expressive situated in faith, positive action for their communities, and location of contemporary culture.

Joey Ramone turns out to be more than just the noted “godfather of punk (Jones 2020)”. He was a prophetic when it came to the direction of positive punk. It may appear complicated to see how, back in 1976/1977 that a punk band from the alternative outsider music scene in New York would steer the course of where punk was to go in the coming decades. Yet, by relying upon his belief in being different, Joey Ramones and his fellow bandmates were able to see beyond their personal/political differences and define a clear path that would eventually lead the future of faith-based punk bands to see how possible it is to remain dedicated to their beliefs, appropriate pop punk signifiers and re-present a punk dialectic centered upon positive image, identity, and faith.

As stated earlier, most musicologist and journalist see the trajectory of the positive punk genre as a subgenre of the punk cannon, a predecessor to other subgenres of punk that bridge together fringe rock expressions. This review is not entirely incorrect, but does avoid other popular directions for punk, that are not subservient to any sonic hierarchy. Yes, positive faith-based punk brings attention to a side of punk that may look like an oxymoron, but is more commercially successful, thriving for a global audience, and secure within its own sounding sphere of influence built on faith, positive image, and The Ramones “be yourself” model.
