Sometimes you just feel pointless amirite gays

#I want to create things #But that in itself is so discouraging #because you're just so bad at everything you do and it feels insurmountable when looking at how much better other people are than you #And I know sure the two cakes post #But really NO ONE is ever going to like the stuff I make #Or what I put out into the world #or just me as a person #in general #sure I make stuff for the internet for personal fullfillment #but I also do it because I want to be acknowledged and praised and liked #but I'm not good enough to make things worthy of being liked #I don't have motivation nor skills #and I should stop comparing myself to others but damn is that hard sometimes #And that's today's edition of thoughts that should go in my personal journal #and/or to my therapist #(lol I don't have a therapist)#going to the internet instead

underappreciated Nico detail that I like - he seems to be an angry crier! very frequently he's angry when he cries and he cries when he's extremely angry. very AuDHD of him. emotional regulation sucks my guy and he's just going through it.

#pjo #riordanverse #nico di angelo #also fun to think about Nico getting pissed off and then getting even more pissed off that he's turning into a bawling mess #or Nico getting sad/upset and the rage just flips on so he's sniffling and crying and cussing under his breath while kicking stuff #i mean how many times has nico had a moment of someone trying to comfort him and his reaction like 90% of the time is ''fuck off''#nico thinking about his trauma: [through tears] i need to go kill something right now or i'll explode #nico working on processing emotions character arc except instead of him stopping being an angry crier #it just turns into his friends holding a pillow for him to beat the shit out of until he works the energy out #shoutout to the cupid scene in particular as one of my favorite examples of this #just cause i love Nico having a breakdown and Jason watching it like ''uh oh. i think Bad Things Will Happen if he *actually* starts crying #other favorite example is TTC. Nico being so upset he creates a rift in the ground and tells Percy to die #nico is not uwu sad boy soft baby kitten tears crier #he is yelling things that would get him cancelled on the internet while snotty and bawling #he is insulting and threatening everyone in a 10ft radius

the mention of their different dialects and languages immediately had my enraptured

so here's a very quickly drawn comic based on I cannot seem to find a good german equivalent to silly

#linked universe #linkeduniverse #lu hyrule #lu wind #lu four #lu legend #lu time #lu twilight #lu warriors #my art #hii german speakers are there any good translations #unfortunately I am scared of internet strangers and if anyone else in my family still speaks german at all I don't talk to them #from a quick search in japanese it seems the first suggestions are also things like stupid and dumb so like #there's the guys who's hylian can be translated directly into english #and the ones where their hylian is based on japanese instead #which i think leaves a giant gap where there are just going to be things that don't translate well

I love you bad art, I love you amateur art, I love you self learning, I love you cheap art supplies, I love you journals, I love you crafts, I love you art available for everyone, I love you second hand art and objects, I love you free museums, I love you handmade gifts, I love you childish drawings, I love you art that nobody ever saw except for the artist, I love you taking time to learn a skill, I love you art history, I love you free tutorials, I love you art as a school subject, I love you things that took a long time to make, I love you art studies that are considered useless, I love you the human need to create and change the world around you to be more beautiful and more meaningful.

I hate you AI art, I hate you generated content, I hate you singe-use images, I hate you mindless consumption, I hate you stealing from artists, I hate you reposting without sources, I hate you lying about using AI, I hate you pretending like art is something unachievable and reserved only for the chosen ones.

Make art!! Make "bad" art that is actually special because you took the time to make it. Make art for yourself that you show no one. Make art for others that they'll cherish forever. See how your whole world changes, see how you start noticing beautiful and inspiring things all around you. Make things with love and devotion. Fuck AI.

#I had to get this off my chest seeing more and more blogs posting untagged AI on purpose and people falling for it #why would you care about “art” that nobody cared enough to make?#I'm seeing the world going more and more towards the mindless consumption of images instead of art and I'm... scared #I'm scared for the future of artists and art history #anyway #sorry for the rant but this is something I feel deeply about #And if you're posting AI images that aren't tagged or captioned because you know you'll get more views by tricking people.... fuck you #and I hope you'll get banned from the internet forever

hellooo very cool person I am just now getting into the atla fandom and I know Nothing other than your fics are very cool and great and I was wondering if you have any recs (or links to posts with recs!!) bc I trust your judgment LOL

I hope this is ok to ask!! also I will add that I am not that picky but I will add that I am very much a longfic enjoyer so🫶🫶

My friend, may I open up to you the broad world of clicking an AO3 user's bookmarks. <3

AKA: literally click any ao3 username, "bookmarks" should appear towards the top of the resulting page. You can then voyage into the additionally wonderful waters of filtering by length, "recommended", fandom, etc.

Also: if the fic you like is in collections, try checking them out, especially if the title appeals to you. Can be a great way to find essentially a fic playlist.

Anyway all hail ao3's designers they done good work

#Oh for an internet designed purely by people for people #Not by people who want money for people who are about to have less money #AO3 you are a light onto my days #In other but thematically related news I'm researching the switch to Linux #Because new laptop came with Windows 11 and if I need to learn command line edits to get this functional #(read: not actively hostile)#I might as well finally make the switch to the computer system not designed to maximize my suffering #Reading their list of recommended programs was hilarious because I literally use all of them instead of the Windows ones already #Go go free and open programs go #ao3

I was bored so I drew more of @ckret2 's Human Bill becuase it's high key my favorite fic... but then I lost motivation with the body's lineart... and I still had to color... but I was still bored so ejekskmsmsmddk- just take the dang art 😭

I- I think I desperately need sleep. The magical nonsensical lighting should be proof of that.

#bill cipher #gravity falls #human bill cipher #my art #original art #bill goldielocks cipher #fanart #im so tired why am I drawing?#i need to get off the internet and sleep #but im going to keep decoding tbob instead #sleep is for the WEAK!

#alolan raichu #holy shit these alolan forms are kicking the fuck outta my ass #the things i do for you all. my production value on this blog has increased over the years and i don't think i can get away with the same #weird shit i used to be able to when i couldn't find a good model so now i'm having to learn how to use blender and shit??#downloading weird scripts off the internet just because i can't find the right models. and now alolan raichu has kantonian eyes #they have kantonian eyes. i know. i'm sorry. i don't know how to fix it and this is the best you're going to get because i had to work for #like an hour and a half just to get to this point. and i know the lighting is dark. it's. it's bad. it'll probably be like this for all #the alolan forms at least. and holy shit when we get to gen 9 it's going to be even worse #this is a wreck!! this is a wreck. i had to use the sv model for this one and it's like #i dunno the eyes in sv aren't textures?? they're procedural. they're fucking. shaders. in sv. which is why espeon's pupils #are no longer pupils and are instead reflections (lie‚ falsehood)#and i'm. dissolving. y'all're gonna have to bear with me moving forward bc i've gotten Very used to the “it just works” nature of #the older models that i was using but this is getting way harder on me as we move into newer generations

I never realized what it was like for millennials to deal with zoomers being like “Wow I wish I was around during the peak of one direction” or whatever. But now watching new fans of Voltron pop up on my feed with their art and fics….babies let me save you….

#like do yall remember the glass cupcakes???#what the fuck was the Internet on?#Klance vs sheith was the most intense Internet beef I have ever been a part of #I still think about dirty laundry #anyway shera is better just go watch that instead if you must #Voltron #vld #Klance #Netflix

#trans pride #trans positivity #transgender #transgender pride #pride art #pride month #trans artist #lgbtqia #dragon #my art?#did some different/experimental stuff w this one largely bc I rly wanted to make it but Really didn’t want to do neat lines for the flag bc #pain #been trying to finish some form of it all month long :’/ finally got somewhere im ok with #meant to post it yesterday but then I decided it would actually be better if I just ignored the internet completely and made myself a #catboy wizard hat from an old flannel sheet instead #and I was right #gotta make ur own serotonin sometimes. a lot of the time #i rly don’t know what to caption this one. feels like I should Say something but words rly aren’t my strong suit especially ones that matter #but fellow trans ppl know that i am sending you so many virtual hugs even if I can only do it in tiny dragon form #we r going to be ok. somehow

So I watched A Silent Voice with some but minor knowledge of the story going in. And right at the beginning when Shoko's bullying started I had the nagging worry that while Ishida would be redeemed they'd leave Ueno and Kawai as one-dimensional bullies. Painting the girls as the "real villains" while the male protagonist got to have depth. Anyway I just finished the movie and I would like to formally apologize to Oima Yoshitoki and Yoshida Reiko I should never have doubted you.

#i was unfamiliar with your game madams. i hope you can forgive me #never seen a film with a male mc become SO dedicated to complex relationships between its flawed female side characters #a silent voice #Ishida shoya #ueno naoka #kawai miki #the scene where yaeko slapped naoka was the peak of the movie to me #seems like she needed it too she'd spent the whole film up to this point basically BEGGING shoko to punch her #but shoko's too nice and it bothers her sooooo much. she's like HATE ME. and shoko's like 'i don't' and she's like WHY NOT???? FIX THAT #naola and miki are very interesting parallels because miki NEEDS to be liked by everyone and naoka wants so badly to be disliked instead.#which leads to both of them being pretty shitty but in essentially opposite ways IT'S GREAT #koe no katachi #i have no doubt that the fandom is still going to be INCREDIBLY weird about both of these girls but what's new #oh a flawed woman exists in a media property? yeah it's a real mystery what the internet's gonna say about that lmao

Society if SOME trans people stopped thinking being trans gives them a free pass to be transphobic to other trans people they don't like or agree with:

#'theyfab' 'tmra' 'baeddel' my god can you just shut the fuck up about other trans people and focus on cis bigots instead #like i assure you all the internet infighting does is ruin everyones mental health whos involved w it #the amount of trans ppl ive seen say 'i trust cis people more than transmascs/transfems/enbies🤪' over stupid internet arguments is worrying #not saying trans ppl cant be shitty btw. but letting your internalized transphobia go unchecked will NOT help anyone #meffy rambles

I certainly have my own concerns about the treatment of moo deng but um. well i think some of you may just be racist

#this ^ isn't directed at any post in particular but instead a lot of comments ive seen. but now im gonna talk about other posts down here #and prefacing anything i put in the tags here with DONT TAKE MY WORD FOR IT DO YOUR OWN RESEARCH #but the biggest post ive seen going around rn about moo deng being mistreated and the general quality of khao kheow zoo is questionable #claims that the enclosure is mostly concrete seem to be false from all the sources i can find #the concrete section looks like its specifically around the feeding area which fits zoo care guidelines which specify that the feeding area #be a surface that can be easily cleaned separate from the substrate and is a surface present in other zoos #the lack of deep water also seems to be purposeful? older videos of the same enclosure show deeper water areas #and looking back through the news every baby pygmy hippo announcement from every zoo i could find mentioned periods where the baby had to #learn to swim and was slowly introduced from shallow water to deeper water as time passed #this was also corroborated by fowlers zoo and wild animal medicine volume 8 which suggests keeping the mother dry and then slowly #introducing water as the baby grows as a potential best practice #damn im treating this like a paper now. anyway the negatives #there are absolutely things that strike me as bad eg. public access to the hippos and the way the keeper interacts with them #for the keeper stuff in particular i'd really like to see input from someone who has experience as a zookeeper with pygmy hippos #the public access is something that i def think the zoo could improve on and even older footage from years ago shows people sticking like #selfie sticks and shit off the side of the railings and right into the hippos faces #however again the zoo seems to be making efforts to curb visitor behavior which is tough when you go from having 800 visitors a day to #4000+ and you can't remodel the whole exhibit right then and there #all this to say! just do your own research and take somewhat inflammatory comments on the internet with a grain of salt #also just to make it clear im not making any sweeping statements on khao kheow or the treatment of moo deng im just summarizing what i foun #based on what's being said in the most popular post on the subject ive seen.#for the potential like three people who will read all this hi :) hope ur having a nice day

#as uncomfortable as it is i think we - the collective internet as a whole - need to face the reality that many of the left leaning figures #we praise for having progressive values are still lukewarm liberals at best #obviously this is better than the alternative......but it still means they're going to fall short on a lot of key issues and have these #reach across the aisle mentalities. i'm not saying that they can never do good or that their prior actions are meaningless #but if we want them to improve we can't always act like they're changing water to wine for simply wearing a shirt or posting a story #this can also be applied to fandom members and people irl - yes acknowledge the good but beware of overinflating people's progress #it's very easy for people to get into a complacent mindset that they're fine and can swoop in whenever to help #instead of being consistent
