though i do gotta say, the state of affairs on yt is Rather Dire, I Think. trying to look for anything interesting at all and its "THE BEST GAME YOUVE NEVER PLAYED??" "THE THING ABOUT [popularseries] NOBODY KNOWS??" "I GOT CREATORS TO DO THING????" "CAN YOU [videogame] WHILE [scenario]????" that same thumbnail artstyle, big red arrows and over-the-top surprised expressions and and and its so disingenuous. like yeah i know it works and all but. oil in water. it all smudges together yknow.
and then over edited captions spinning and bobbing across the entire screen, those same few background music tracks (that are absolutely never credited), smug commentary that comes across as the audio equivalent of a dreamworks face, constant cut ins of meme images as bits about as entertaining as 'haha dont you recognize this image? theres character in this image instead, isnt that so funny?' like arent you tired? arent you all so tired? are we not all so fucking tired??

Nawhhhhhh- y’all tell me why my Mexican Mama be roasting RoboDad over here. 💀💀💀
I was gonna give her a long speech about how amazing and lovable Nick Valentine is, but before I could she just went right back to roasting him. (Affectionately though, she does like him. Just thinks he’s kinda ugly)
Feito means “little ugly”
Now I have to basically summarize this man’s entire lore in the most simplistic way possible to make her understand this unyielding love the Fallout community has for Nick.
Plz send help.

watcher boys in what you missed in april 2024 🗓️😈🎶 (april 2024 pop culture recap) by ModernGurlz
"The youtube channel Watcher, which was created by former Buzzfeed employees Ryan Bergara, Steven Lim, and Shane Madej, announced that they intend to leave the platform, and start an independent subscription service instead. The backlash to this announcement was immediate, and intense, and within a few days they had backtracked."

Decided it couldn’t be any harm to share some of my Namari art from today so I’m finally honouring my username
I really struggle to convert characters into my style, especially from an anime art style where head are usually based on completely different shapes than those I use, so I always have to sketch a character at least a few times to get it right:
Pleased with how this face came out tho:
Namari is still probably one of the best DunMesh characters to convert into my art style cuz of her face and the fact that her bodytype is one of the easiest for me to draw.
As much as I love Chilchuck, his face is a hell for me to try to draw accurately.
Youppi!
I still feel I could do better but if I keep a high bar, I’ll never get to posting anything.

The way he's not but then he looks at her, and sees that she's okay, so at least momentarily, he is too. His eyes / expression just getting perpetually softer. And this is, I think, the one time in the season other than the stargaze "head on shoulder" touch that Rayla initiates in the whole season as well
But like - of course, he's not okay
And the final hesitation before he takes his hands - unclasping them, now 'stained' more than ever - and hugs her back, because he won't refuse her comfort
After all, he did this for her:
AARON: But yeah, I think you're—you’re right in characterizing it as it’s certainly a more complex, you know, justification that is required to pursue dark magic. And there are some people who would not accept that justification. But what’s interesting about it is, you know, the questions, there are questions, you can you can come out on either side of it. You know, there are cases, you know, would Rayla have died if Callum hadn’t used dark magic? Yeah. I think she would have. So did he have to? Are we thankful that he did? Thank goodness—well yes, we love Rayla! Well of course we needed him to do that. You know what I mean? Then there’s some kind of morality that sometimes is based on your attachment. Now if you said, should Callum use dark magic to save one person, knowing that he'll—he may be corrupted for the long term and his potential to be, you know, a hero in the future may be altered and his potential to be manipulated or you know, go down the wrong path, all that risk to save one person? Well, now you might say, “Oh no he shouldn’t—for one person?” But then if I go, “But it was Rayla!” then you go “Oh no, [laughs] yeah, he needs to do it!” [KUNO laughs] So I don’t know. But it’s also even that, right? It comes down to “well, in that moment, what did he do?” Well in that moment, he took like a—I-I think the ingredient is a piece of a snake rattle [...] “He didn’t even kill it, it was already dead, it was already dead man, what did he do?” Well, I don’t know. He supported the system, so it is complex. It’s worth arguing about, a bit. There’s not a clear right or wrong. There are risks. There are long term consequences. Those are baked into it. But I don’t know. When—when it’s your Mom in trouble, what do you do? You do the dark magic! You save Mom, right? I do.

hi anna!!! :)))
i hope you are doing well and getting through exam season alright!!!
i wanted to let you know that i watched the first episode of granada holmes (a scandal in bohemia) and it was so fucking good i am obsessed. i was a little nervous to watch their adaptation since irene adler usually gets done so dirty but i was very pleasantly surprised at how they treated her!!!! she was an icon from the moment she came on screen with a gun <3333333
i also love the holmes and watson dynamic so far!!!! watson did a lot in the episode to help holmes and it was so fucking funny watching holmes give zero fucks about social normals and watson working overtime to make up for holmes, lmao
thanks again for the recommendation, friend :)))) i'd love to know if you have any particular thoughts/feelings/opinions about the episode?
hiya zip :)
im doing okay :) i hope you are too!
yayyyy!!!! this is the only version of irene in any adaptation i like :) (im sure theres at least one other really good one out there though) she IS an icon <333 i agree with the king on one thing, what a woman! did you notice her little gay moment? its around 19:30 when she checks out a dancing women whilst drinking with the king (booo)
yesss its really good!! the way holmes expresses caring via little things like buying watsons favourite cigars too <333 or making him stay for the case <333 and watson cares right back, yelling at holmes over his cocaine habit, which is something i love about the books, so seeing it in this series is so nice :)
i love holmes' disguises as well, he really does look like a completely different person and i love that that part of the books wasnt removed :) especially his clergyman disguise, he looks delightfully comical with the bandage around his head
i believe this episode was actually the third filmed? i know solitary cyclist was the first for sure, bc they wanted the first episode to be really good, so they made sure that they all had a bit of experience with this series first :)
