saw the tron: ares trailer

i am thoroughly whelmed

#tron #tron: ares #i’m not really into the whole ‘programs as evil invaders’ theme that seems to be going on #like legacy was annoying enough with the way it treated the non-human characters #esp the basics #also i’m gonna be real #what i would want from a ‘programs enter the real world’ plotline is well beyond what disney would ever be willing to deliver #bc i would want like… grappling with implications and shit #that our whole modern world runs on the subjugation of sapient life that we’ve accidentally created #and what that means when we can actually see that life face to face #and it looks just like us #but naaaah we’re just gonna get programs being evil scary cyborgs while the music goes BWAAAAH in the background #sigh #oh and jared leto is there too

was talking with a friend about how some of dunmeshi fаndom misunderstands kabru's initial feelings towards laios.

to sum up kabru's situation via a self-contained modernized metaphor:

kabru is like a guy who lost his entire family in a highly traumatic car accident. years later he joins a discord server and takes note of laios, another server member who seems interesting, so they start chatting. then laios reveals his special interest and favorite movie of all time is David Cronenberg's Crash (1996), and invites kabru to go watch a demolition derby with him

#dungeon meshi #delicious in dungeon #kabru #kabru already added laios as a discord friend. everyone else in the server can see laios excitedly asking kabru to go with him #what would You even Do in this situation. how would YOU feel?#basically: kabru isnt a laios-hater! hes just in shock bc Thats His Trauma. the key part is kabru still says yes #bc he wants to get to know laios. to understand why laios would be so fascinated by something horrific to him #and ALSO bc even while in shock kabru can still tell laios has unique expertise + knowledge that Could be used for Good #even if kabru doesnt fully trust laios yet (bc kabru just started talking to the guy 2 hours ago. they barely know each other)#kabru also understands that getting to know ppl (esp laios) means having to get to know their passions. even if it triggers his trauma here #but thats too much to fit in this metaphor/analogy. this is NOT an AU! its not supposed to cover everything abt kabru or laios' character!#its a self-contained metaphor written Specifically to be more easily relatable+thus easy to understand for general ppl online #(ie. assumed discord users. hence why i said (a non-specific) 'discord server' and not something specific like 'car repair subreddit')#its for ppl who mightve not fully grasped kabru's character+intentions and think hes being mean/'chaotic'/murderous.#to place ppl in kabru's shoes in an emotionally similar situation thats more possible/grounded in irl experiences and contexts.#and also for the movie punchline #mynn.txt #dm text #crossposting my tweets onto here since my friends suggested so

friend wanted to see my tumblr, and when i told him i can’t show it to him bc it’s basically my personal diary he went “oh so I can’t see it but a bunch of strangers on tumblr can??” he literally does not get me. no one will get me like the people in my phone get me

#It’s just so different #even though it’s public it still feels secret and safe. i feel comfy sharing a lot more on here than I do in my actual day to day life lol #in my head I’m also just speaking to myself 90% of the time which helps #if a friend off tumblr saw my thoughts I’d feel so weird ab it #esp bc they might get the vagueposting about certain situations and tell mutual friends #no thank u. this is for me. I’m not about to start censoring my thoughts bc someone I know knows my tumblr #u guys literally saw me have LIVE BREAKDOWNS #meanwhile I’ll have the worst fucking day in history and tell no one about it. I’m already cripplingly private but way more so in real life #this is basically a low stress journaling outlet for me. it’s so important for me to maintain the separation #like this is actually my diary & has been so handy for letting out emotions / articulating thoughts / staying on track !!#& I’ve met so many kind people on here who actually get me. which is so hard to find irl bc I’m surrounded by pre-med gunners/overachievers #who are by standard not very good w emotion & can be competitive/judgmental. or at least it’s hard for me to be vulnerable in front of them #and I’m part of that crowd so I reserve my emotions only to a handful of very close friends #it’s nice to hop on here and express negative emotions!! or positive emotions!! just whatever I want and it’s low stress and people get me #I don’t have to worry about judgment or competitiveness etc etc #like everyone on here is so kind & nice & understanding. & just a breath of fresh air from the types I run w. it’s just nice to have this #so idk that’s why I think I’ll always be strict about keeping the worlds separate. it just works #p

Here are some Season 2 Arcane GIF comparisons before and after I color and sharpen them! | Season 1 Comparison GIFs

#arcane #arcaneedit #gifmaking #reminder that if ur not a fan of the coloring and sharpening then i dont need to hear ur opinion so fuck off and make your own gifs :)#sooo yeah!!! just sharing this very old coloring comparison i use from time to time to make sure i follow a certain peg for my gifs #but i dont really follow it to the T of course #and now i will use the tags to rant/comment about my coloring process lmao #ok so.... arcane s2 is SOOOOO much brighter than s1 i am so so so thankful we have such bright scenes instead of all the dark ones in s1 #because it makes my life so much easier #that being said my coloring isnt really perfect i still cant handle more complex tones like the mel gif......#i used to have a more stylized coloring wayyy back in s1 (esp when u look at my old gifs) but i kinda realized i had to change it #so i scrapped all my old psds and now coloredit EVERYTHING MANUALLY #hence why sometimes i gif the same scene but theyre colored different since i never use a preset PSD now #however it became way more tedious to make gifs... so yeah.... lmao #but in the end i like it more!!! i like that my new coloring just basically matches the show more but is just brighter and more saturated #unless ofc i dont like the tones of the original show i.e. the vi gif you see there where its super green gray???? idk i dont like it so #i recolored the entire thing #anyways thats really it coloring will always be something i continue to try to improve on but recently ive just been v busy so i just #speed color and edit everything and dont rlly take all adjustments into account so no more complex tones and #i just stick to basic things #oh right sharpening! so for sharpening i use a very basic setting: just 500 px and 0.4 radius which is what i use for almost everything #i also dont add noise bc the landscape photographer in me does NOT like it LMFAOOOOOOOOOO #but yeah thats really it for sharpening oh i also use 4k sources as much as possible bc it gives the best quality and if #i cant find any source i just upscale everything by myself then crop stuff again back to 540 px and imo it really just does look better #personal tag

Bonus round! Do you use a queue tag?

#ive been super curious about this because people seem to have really strong opinions on the queue! so many people seem to HATE it #but i love using the queue! i dont really know exactly why i like it so much- i started using in like... 2016 and its a fundamental part of #my tumblr experience now. i think i started off just using it for offline hours so id hit most my american mutuals (/ for aes posts)#but these days basically everything goes in my queue (cept time sensitive things & like. current hype and original posts-#anything 'normal' posting is in the queue)#idk it feels. nice to me! i like to spread out my posting and not rb 30 things in half an hour and then disappear for the rest of the day #esp since my spaces are so circular- the same post runs on my dash a dozen times minimum. and i get to put it on ur dash a week late!!!#and its so nice to have small interactions with mutuals in incompatible timezones; to open up my notifications in the morning #and go: oh! my friends were here <3 #its such a Part of the tumblr experience for me i dont think i could ever truly change now. maybe switch to timed queueing #but my availability changes so much i prefer to just. know i guess #but (i am so sorry for all that) im curious about how other people feel!!!!!! itd be so interesting to hear abt why people do/do not like i #i know some people like the experience of spamming and going. some people think it makes this seem to much like influencing or whatever #everyone has their reasons and i want to know!!!!!!!!!!!!!!#nyxtalks #poll #queue #no see answers option because you must fall into one of these

Gi-hun and Jung-bae hanging out pls?

day 19 || I NEED TO DRAW JUNG-BAE MORE IM LOWKEY PISSED AT MYSELF FOR NEGLECTING HIM

#daily gi-hun #seong gihun #park jungbae #click for better quality #hes gi-huns ride or die i need to put some RESPECT on his name #jung-bae and gi-hun friendship always gets a smile out of me #esp their pre-show selves #theres enough for me to gleam a basic dynamic and run with it #jung-bae lovesss ragebaiting gi-hun its so entertaining to him because gi-hun would get so wound up so fast and so easily #jung-bae is just one of those types of people that has teasing as their show of affection i thinks #he didnt even bat an eye at gi-hun tryna elbow him in the face in the first episode #that leads me to believe the dude regularly dodges punches from gi-hun #technically brought back old gi-hun by ragebaiting him hard enough. I CACKLED SO LOUDLY WHEN HE SWORE ON GI-HUNS VERY DEAD MOM #and then blaming him for his divorce JUNG-BAE IS SO SILLY #its not one-sided btw pre-show gi-hun definitely got his lick back plenty of times #they were enabling each other HARD which could actually make for something rather unhealthy (and lowkey did a little bit)#me and the besties shared gambling addiction and the agony that it brings us #i love their friendship i miss them #idk smth about having not seen gi-hun for three years and being Completely ghosted by him yet jung-bae picks up right where he left off #and i think. that is something gi-hun needed. that little flicker of his past life staying by his side #that little lights been snuffed out though.#hwang in-ho you will be dragged through the streets for what you did #squid game #my art #doodle #squid game fanart #seong gi hun #park jung bae #took me like a month to get to this i am soooo sorry #prompts

When your entire check goes to bills and catching up on things you'd been putting off for financial reasons.

#we have no food for tomorrow and we still havent been able to pick up my roommates medication #or toothpaste #i hate this #this is progress #but the progress is slow and still leaves us without basic necessities #2 weeks till my next check we are screwed again on food and medication esp

Was doing a live reading/recording of Chaos Theory for my voice class and @icedamage said that Megatron's whole monologue was him at the drive-thru in Wendy's. Couldn't rest until I recreated this image.

#it's basically how that part of chaos theory goes no?#megop #idw megop #transformers idw #transformers shitposting #squiggposting #i laughed so much while making this esp OP's part

i find it so so interesting the things that you can learn about a parent/caregiver just by knowing their kid...

when siffrin doesn't flinch away from bonnie's touch, bonnie says "good kid, good kid. you didn't even jump that time! good job, you did such a good job.” now we know what kind of langauge nille uses to praise bonnie!

bonnie doesn't actually argue all that much about not being allowed to fight - they make their opinion known, but then focus on being a good snack leader. i think they are used to having their point of view taken into consideration! a kid who doesn't dare complain at all might have very strict and stubborn caregivers, while a kid who throws a fit might have caregivers who pay more attention to emotions than logic, or care less about their child's feelings and more about how those feelings affect them. but bonnie trusts that the adults around them will listen to them, and then make a reasonable decision, even if it's not the one they wanted.

bonnie's fairly level-headed in general, actually. they get really upset sometimes, obviously, but it's about things that are really upsetting? otherwise.. if they're not confronted about the death convo, they're able to set it aside and focus on cheering everyone up with snacks. even though they're mad at siffrin, they have some chill convos with him. pretty good emotional regulation skills all things considered! they're often able to choose to be calm and cheerful, but they feel safe expressing sadness and anger, too, so they're not just sitting there repressing everything either!

i just get really emo about what a good job nille must have done raising them 😭

#esp considering the two of them likely ran away when bonnie was a toddler or preschooler #which are the years of basic social-emotional skill-building #she would've had to work so hard to overcome whatever shit baby bonnie learned from their parents #not to mention the running away itself is traumatic #what a hard situation to be in #and she did it!! she raised bonnie into a well-adjusted pre-teen!#obviously bonnie is going through some shit right now #but the fact that they're doing so well anyway??#they have a SOLID foundation #they grew up being listened to and helped and taught #☺️#silver's greatest hits #s.isat #s.bonnie #s.nille #s.bonnie.nille #isat

conquest calling eve kitten makes me think he likes to give people who he deems beneath him nicknames. derogatory yet affectionate, like the weirdo he is with his obsessive and unhealthy relationship to strangers

#so basically he'd call my oc his glowbug<3 yay<3 or starlight. something like that bc she glows when healing #as soon as i finish these last 2 comms ive got.. im drawing so much conquest and cecil shit...... but esp conquest im kinda obsessed #invincible #invincible conquest #conquest #allie speaks

Are the mini Rollo’s ever going to invade NBC? Or are the NRC boys just going to air drop them all back to Rollo like “deal with it yourself”

Ah but the thing is Rollo isn't even the one that started this in the first place !

The first ever mini-rollos are from this post back in april I believe, here you have footage of culprit 1 out of 2. Culprit n.2 being Rook who created the mini rollos in the lab during club hours (Trey witnessed the horrors)

What we know so far is :

They multiply cell division style when well fed

Squishy and stretchy

Like warm and comfortable places

Harmless

Mozzarella

(There’s also that cursed timeline someone talked abt in an ask where there is a mini rook invasion at NBC which is scarier imo)

#twst rollo #tbh I never expected this joke to last esp since Rollo isnt that much of a fan favorite on the EN side of the fandom (I think??)#but hey I'm happy to share whatever this shitpost is that I created !#I wonder if the minis absorb magic #like they don't send it back to you they just absorb it and.... nothing happens #like the fire lotus but with a debuff and it's basically as useful as that chrysalid pokemon (idk I only played gold on gameboy)

VERY late entry for Ulysses Week's prompt "the divide". Lyrics are from Autopsy Garland by the Mountain Goats. I have a project for fnv planned involving the whole song, but I couldn't get this concept for an alternate Ulysses thing for these lyrics out of my head. I love Ulysses and the divide very much. >24 hours of drawing on this one.
