A Linked Universe meets The Dark Crystal AU! I don't even remember what started it at this point. I remembered that the Dark Crystal and Age of Resistance are things I like, blinked, and woke up three days later with an AU and a bunch of art.
The designs and the story are a wip and for fun so expect a lot of variation! (I have a few different beginnings, ideas for different designs, etc)! :D
In addition to #linked universe I'll be using the tags #the dark crystal lu au and #courage of the dark crystal!
#linked universe#tdc aor#the dark crystal lu au#courage of the dark crystal#lu au au#lu legend#lu hyrule#lu four#lu wind#I've made an au of the au I've gone too far help help-#I gotta get better at drawing gelfling! Their facial structures are very distinct#ALSO I went really big with the ears here lmao#the hugest ears ever seen on gelfling#TRANS ROOLIE TRANS ROOLIE TRANS ROOLIE YIPPEE!!!!#I drew this last month (except for Four) sO HAPPY PRIDE! Roolie gets WINGS! :D#I'm SO pleased with Wind's design! he's a lil fishy! and Four with the horned headband/armor in place of the lil ups in his bangs#gonna try to put the aureyal or symbol of the conjunction and triangles on all of them#IF YOU HAVE QUESTIONS ABOUT THE AU PLS ASK THEM#I'd love to tackle some worldbuilding mayhaps?!#I'm thinking of placing them somewhere before the first battle of stone-in-the-wood in the arathim wars#or after the events of the comics with Kensho and Thurma somewhere#and just figure out another reason for the crystal to be shattered. so many possibilities!#where's the crystal shard this time and how can I split it between them? >:3 niiiiine shards made whole >:3#quest for the ~~triforce~~ crystal#Hello from summer camp also! Lots of shenanigans!#I'm surprised I was able to draw Four at all last weekend I've been so busy!!!#having fun tho!!! we're having a lunch cookout at archery and campfire is tonight!!!

sorry Tony, we'll always have Scarif
#rebelcaptain#andor critical#i haven't even watched it yet but reading all my trusted rogue one mutuals reviews#i don't know if i will#anti tony gilroy#as far as I can tell it sounds like he was going out of his way to undermine both cassian's character arc in RO & rebelcaptain#how strange#what a strange motive to build a show around#how miserable#don't understand why people who hate star wars keep getting hired to direct it#what's up with that#(technically it would be more accurate to say 'we'll always have rogue one' but i was going for the assonance with 'scarif' and 'paris' so)#but ya know scarif is where elevator scene happened so it still works

My re:zero character tier list after catching up with the anime and finishing like 2 of the light novels
#re:zero#ya I'm not tagging everyone#you can just ignore that bottom tier. thats just there to help me sort#you ever watched a show when it came out almost 10 years ago and then forget about it while waiting years for news on season 2#and then you see video essays on one of the characters and some comments online that make you go “hm. that doesnt sound right”#but you haven't watched the series recently enough to engage in either of those things meaningfully#so then you go to rewatch the series and find that theres suddenly three seasons and a movie#and also find you enjoy the series WAY more as an adult than you did as a kid#cuz thats been my experience with re:zero#I'm reading the light novels instead of the web novels because i was able to find audiobooks for the light novels#I've enjoyed how much more insight there is to the characters so far#though that may just be a case of “because i know whats gonna happen I'm actively looking for hints”#also idk what was wrong with 14 y/o me. i hated Julius back then but now I'm just like “omg my beautiful wife” whenever he's on screen

Explain why my fully cognitive, 61-year-old mother needed someone else to make rice for her butter chicken?
It is literally putting a cup of rice into 2 cups of boiling water, turning the heat down, covering the pot, and waiting for 20 minutes. Why tf did she "need" someone to do this for her like she's 2!?
Like yeah, she has some mobility issues, and can't really walk far or go up and down stairs much (which is at least half of why my sister and I still live here to help her), but none of the disabilities she has remotely prevent her from putting rice into water, covering a pot, and then sitting down to wait for 20 minutes!
I feel like she interprets "live here in part to help with her mobility issues" as "never having to do literally anything for herself ever again", and it's like... No... If you can do something for yourself, then fucking do it. We do not live here so you can sit on your ass doing nothing 95% of the time, being waited on hand and foot like the Queen of Quebec while also actively charging rent for the "privilege" of doing so.
#trash king vents#y'all if I could afford to leave#ya know for a woman so ''traumatized'' by her oldest kid threatening to go no-contact#she sure isn't afraid to see how far she can push the other kids

Few things:
Osana decided to test the beliefs she'd been brought up on in the ultimate way - by deciding that maybe punitive justice isn't the answer to everything.
Despite what I said the other day...Kai's growing on me. In THAT way. 🫣
#ash plays avowed#avowed spoilers#oc: osana#i should probably come up with a surname for her at some point#anyways i'm 17 hours in and i think i'm finishing up what could be considered act one of the game#how people are blowing through this game is beyond me#personally i think it's great so far#i like the combat i think it's a beautiful game#and the writing is on par with deadfire#so i love it#i've been seeing a lot of conflicting opinions on the writing#i do think i can safely say if you liked deadfire you'll like avowed#i usually try to be respectful of other people's opinions and criticisms but...#seeing people say the writing is “bad” in this game just makes me wonder what they consider good writing#saw one person on reddit the other day say it has “YA writing” and that made me see red for several reasons#people really are out here letting youtube influencers/reviewers do all their thinking for them and it shows#(as a reminder - YA isn't a genre it's an age rage. the target demographic of YA books are 15-19 year olds)#(and there are MANY well-written novels for that age rage. and even if it was a genre...no genre is universally bad.)#(i'm going to stop now before i go into a rant about people using terms that they have no idea wtf they're talking about)#(well...more of a rant)

Can we leave Spock alone for five fucken minutes
#I’m still so in awe that Strange New Worlds can hit Spock with a hate crime each season so far#it’s not even subtle too it’s so loud like as if Trek hadn’t been slipping that in to teach people how bad it is while not demeaning#the audience’s intelligence to see between lines & go: oh that’s that? I see it & want to not be part of that.#IF THESE TAGS MAKE SENSE YA KNOW?? JUST BE BETTER WRITERS#text tag.

#okay i promise i'm going to get off tumblr and actually get something decent done#but i just have to mention that i started reading 'thief liar lady'#the cinderella retelling where she's pulling a con#which i did not have high expectations for because that concept screams 'we're going to prove how dumb the original cinderella story is'#so i have to give it credit that so far it's pleasantly surprising me by pulling back every time it's about to do something stupid#within the first page or two we have 'they say the slippers were glass and the carriage was made of a pumpkin which is so dumb'#which seems like standard cinderella bashing but it's also framed as an explanation of the magic system#as in 'this is a waste of magic based on the rules' not 'this story is stupid and my 'real' one is better' so i can live with it#we have the enemy prince she's trying to con but he's not a dumb strawman royal#he's actually a sweet guy and a shrewd diplomat#all the royals are actually getting credit for talents as well as flaws#no strawmen in sight (i still shudder to remember 'just ella')#it feels like real politics#and there is *so much* politics and i am eating it up#(which makes me realize that one of the reasons i love cinderella retellings is that there's a lot of potential for politics)#we did have a scene where she goes into the throne room and meets a strange disheveled nobleman lounging on the throne#which made me roll my eyes because you could not have had a more obvious 'meeting the ya love interest' scene#but then there's a scene where she's like 'i don't care about embroidery'#and i internally groaned#but then she's like 'but i do like the embroidery circle because it's relaxing to be away from the men for a while'#so to my delight i could cancel the 'not like other girls' alert#the queen is feminine and her social skills are presented as a vital political skill#the swearing is really stupid and out of place and brings the book down#and i know that there'll most likely be something that makes me stop reading it before the 25% mark#but i do want to give the book credit for pleasantly surprising me#i'm liking it more than i otherwise would because of all the ways i was expecting it to disappoint me

billions also comedy gold presenting winston as a scapegoat for abuse culture fans when it's like but hey it can't be actual scapegoating if you Enjoy It or consider it Justified or experience Reassurance from Its Opportunity For A Group Cohesion Substitute For A Cohesion Based On An Inherent Equal Degree Of Belonging, The Absence Of Which Allows For, Encourages, Reinforces, & Rewards Scapegoating
it can't be Bullying if someone's Weird or you Just Don't Personally Like Them or Nobody's Actually Stopping You, Maybe At Least If They Don't See Too Much Of It, Maybe Others Are Supporting It
it can't be Abuse if you're just doing things Normally or are Following Rules or Aren't Feeling Malicious And Aren't Getting Divine Revelations Otherwise and probably it's just that a lot of abnormal people are being whiny &/or unfair &/or the Real malicious ones. kinda just like how that scapegoat is the real person ruining everything and really just forcing you to treat them like this
#might note hardly limited to billions; the series doing bog standard suffocatingly common [Being Normal can't be abusive] replication#nor is their Unaware Replication Of [it can't be ableist if i'm not reacting to ppl who walked up & said Hi I'm Autistic]#well abuse & traumatic treatment can't be Everywhere. like how umm sexism can't be everywhere. neither can white supremacy. ableism. cmon.#oh please not everything can be political. Just Be Normal. which makes it ''apolitical.''#now we all agree abuse can't ever be made palatable; insulated; easy. now ppl doing it never said it wasn't That bad.#if they did they must have been maliciously lying. whereas when i say it can't have been That bad; i mean it :)#and if that person says it was; well they must be lying. or clueless. or a pussy. or scheming to destroy me. Must be. Gotta#& we wouldn't be able to look around & see contexts of imbalance. who's vulnerable. who's life gets smaller. who's supported automatically#who's supported if someone even posits they May have done anything like No; Impossible; now instantly definitely get their ass#you can just go on all day about the ''um i'm just the Realistic Normality vessel'' arguments made boundlessly in bad faith#being like ohh Everyday Interactions / ''Normal'' Semi/Public Situations Can't Be Uncomfortable Imbalanced Dangerous Abusive....#if they are that must be So Rare & created only by Rare Bad Actors with Malicious Mens Rea (itself a great concept to make any act Okay)#something framed as Extreme must be an outlier. could never be part of everyone's everyday life & some much more than others.#could never be what's defined as Normal (associated with Superiority) like how Abuse can't be shit i'd think of as Normal#like how damn if ya don't just wanna kill the autistic coworker and everyone agrees & would clap & cheer if you did And That's Great#you'd have to feel Weird / Abnormal about it! b/c Weirdness & Abnormality is what's bad!#like the autism or the cptsd (the Real abuse can only be: inflicting the existence of a victim's survival skills on Superior Normals)#or whatever else gets pathologized with Polite ABA arguments about how it's not ''social skills'' so hide it or suffer the consequences#winston billions#having that perspective too like oh [our blessed successful conformity] [their barbaric xyz Issues]#if the best you can argue for or against smthing is as Normal or Weird respectively like. no. what's behind that door#the authority figure/s who must be supported lest this all crumble. vs the ruinerrrrrr#billions recognizing winston & tuk the next most shitted on would probably get along & have a mutually supportive friendship#billions also recognizing that mutual support better not be Allowed to get that far. lest this all crumble#like look see we Knew it. we knew the bottom tier ppl who don't really belong in the group who we bully & scapegoat are Always Ruining It.

I came up with a headcanon (which is impressive because I don't often do those).
With my guy being a vampire and all and me usually imagining us in my world (I technically have a profile in his world, but I just don't fantasize about being in the game that much), it's likely that there are some hard limitations on where he can feed. It's a given that I am one source of blood, but you can't exactly create missing cats or people in the streets nowadays like you could back in medieval fantasy days I guess (I would not want him to anyway), so odds are I am now 'stuck' as his only source of blood.
That of course brings some complications as there is only so much I can offer and I also imagine it can be hard to contain yourself when you're getting good food (mosquitos irl will tell you I am an absolute snack, sigh), so I figured that there may be times where he would accidentally drink too much, leaving me in a weak and vulnerable state, unable to go about my day normally. I'll tell him it's fine, he'll feel bad about it, and we'll compromise by having him treat me nice as if I am ill (which is not far off I imagine).
So I was enjoying the thought of having him wrap me up in a fleece blanket on the couch, Netflix on, hot drinks whenever I require one, and hopefully plenty of snuggles. 🥰
This was also followed by me realizing that any vampiric bite marks should probably be covered up, and although I was thinking bandaids, I now realize that just walking around with bite marks is actually less suspicious. Bandaids in the neck are odd, and bandaids on the wrist are concerning. Maybe not give people any ideas. Mostly a concern for summer though, I can cover so much up in winter. Either way, I wear black most of the time, so it's easier to just have them think it's some goth make-up or something.
I also realize I have very vampire-friendly blinds now: they block sunlight completely while still allowing the room to be properly lit. Oops. 🤣
#mirika.txt#Like I don't imagine this to happen often but like... accidents happen.#I know how I can be if you let me roam free at a sushi buffet and even though overall I learned when to stop... sometimes I don't.#Ngl I imagine these accidents would almost exclusively happen if the mood is a little spicier so 😳 we probably have a safe word for this.#Though I am pretty sure a vampire would know when they're about to go too far in regards to taking a life so that would never happen.#But avoiding an ill day would be cool ya know.#I actually don't know how long it takes to recover realistically.#Either way thanks for listening to my ted talk.

I think someone put the brain of a mouse or maybe a squirrel inside my head at some point because all winter I was like “I crave nuts and seeds” and now that it’s getting warmer and brighter out my brain keeps going “it’s fruit time”
Like, modern transportation has made it possible to move many fruits all over the world (in theory) all the time! But the primal early plesiadapiform part of my brain is like “you must eat what is available this season”
#I was going to go with euarchonta or plesiadapiform brain but I think the early members of both of those groups were from a tropical#ecosystem. if I’m wrong though and either are from more seasonal environments I could change what I used#actually. wait. plesiadapis is from the late Paleocene. yes. but tropical plants have reproductive cycles too#do they generally vary by season or are they just doing it all at their own pace by species#I am from a very cold seasonal climate that gets hot af in summer but is pretty cold for a good five-ish months#not all equally cold#it’s bad for our environment if it doesn’t get cold as balls for a bit every winter#and we didn’t really get that this winter. but that’s not my point!#I mean to say I can’t remember how it works in tropical environments#if the plants just time their reproduction whenever in the year or if there are seasons for most plants at the same time#does that make sense? I’m using the primate-like-mammal. if it’s wrong then whatever#fuck it we ball#maybe I should have gone with a group further back in time but I couldn’t find climate info easily about things that far back and fuzzier#i am not the most familiar with primate evolution. especially early evolution of the group. I’m open to learning more#i just tend to fixate on certain other things like early mammals and horse and cat evolution#paleontology#emma posts#I like juice all year though#one day I want to try many varieties of fruits that I cannot access easily where I live because they can’t be shipped here#or they just aren’t as popular a variety on an industrial scale#maybe one day i will have a big greenhouse and i will be able to grow the banana varieties I want to try#I can see why some plant varieties aren’t grown on a large scale. some of these bitches are SUPPOSED to be able to grow in zone four but#they refuse to work with me! blueberries make sense. the soil here is nowhere near acidic enough and they would need to be in a pot or#whatever. ya know? but some plants just won’t! or I get them and then the weather here which would NORMALLY work is different that season

I was gonna draw something based on an ask today buuuuut I got completely distracted trying to find a specific obscure quote I remembered reading from a specific obscure historical primary source that relates to the topic of the ask…
After like 3 hours of looking I couldn’t find it.😭😭
So if you asked me for a drawing request recently I’m working on it! 😅 Just being a total nerd about it.
#mur art or lack thereof#yall don’t even know how far I’ll go for a historical reference#ya girl can dig up anything
