I'm confused how you have a rules against slut-shaming, true crime and more, but apparently posting a confession about fantasies of violence and murder against a murder-victim is fine. Funny morals.

ur very right, I'll delete it, I wasn't sure about the post anyways as you could see.

I was trying to break the art block and asked my friend to give me a random color, he went with teal. And since ATLA/LOK is a thing we have in common, here is the outcome!

So tell me how you and your f/o would first meet online?

if discord rolls out intrusive ads i will just be on here. tumblr ads are, to me, astonishingly tame compared to like every other media out there.

watching movies isn't inherently a romantic/domestic activity but it's quite telling from a narrative point of view how the first romantic thing maureen wanted to do with dennis on their wedding night was to watch a movie together, presumedly suggested by dennis himself (before he changed his mind) because she said "but i thought we were going to watch a movie tonight"... and all dennis wanted was to escape and leave the house.

and in mac and dennis breaks up, mac and dennis were going to watch the same movie predator that they've watched like 30 times. they ended up not watching it because of the codependency comment so dennis tried to rope dee and charlie to watch the movie with him, but it was clear to literally everyone that all he wanted was to do was watch the movie with mac. and even in s12, watching movies together is still one of their little routines.

so dennis loves watching movies, but he enjoys watching them even more with mac. and in a way, he considers watching movies a romantic activity he would do on the first day of marriage. which comes back to the conclusion i always arrive at: he doesn't want to date mac but he's basically already dating mac lmao

i really gotta get better about listening to my own brain and needs when i'm making things. i've been working on a video and i'm almost finished (yippee!!), but drawing this One Specific Frame was giving me trouble. i could have just brute-forced my way through it and finalized the initial sketch, since it was relatively good enough. but instead i left it and took a day off from working on the project, let myself recharge, and came back to the sketch with fresh eyes today. and what do you know, my redrawn sketch today is WAY better! now, i can finalize that frame and be genuinely proud of it, instead of just powering through on something i was less than happy with.

i hadn't done any other art stuff that day when i couldn't get my sketches to look right, so letting myself stop and have a break from the project felt sort of "unearned" i guess. but it's just. what i needed! and the break did what i needed it to do; i was able to come back later and make something i could be proud of.

anyway i guess this is me saying that, if you're like me and have this weird morality-complex about letting yourself rest, it's ok to take breaks, even if you feel like you haven't "earned" one yet :)

I don’t know if this is a controversial hot take or something a lot of people feel, but I’m tired of hearing people unironically describe Ace Attorney as being “about gay lawyers”. Because it’s not. Do the lawyers act gay? Yes. But that’s not what 99% of the playtime is about.

At the end of the day, Ace Attorney is a satirical story about the corrupt justice system in Japan as represented by a kind-hearted defense attorney protecting (mostly) innocent defendants from having their lives ruined by misguided prosecutors. Its goal was to flip the cultural narrative that defense attorneys are trashy scum who make money off of sympathizing with criminals. And they did this through episodic, goofy murder mysteries.

So where does the gay come in? They wrote some accidentally romantically-charged dialogue, fans were obsessed, and the writers decided, yeah it’s pretty good, let’s do more of that. So they proceeded to toss in more gay side-banter and whatnot amongst the homicide investigations and court sessions.

Now, it’s not like Ace Attorney is the deepest, most poetic social commentary ever written, but it still has a meaningful theme inspired by a real life issue, so it’s pretty discouraging seeing people either not process it or straight up ignore it in favor of “the gay lawyers”. And that’s not even getting into all the other meaningful, non-romantic character relationships that have way more presence in the plot.

I know there will always be uncritical, shipping-brained people in every fandom, but what gets me about how bad it is here is that people who only know as much about AA as what they’ve heard really think it’s “about gay lawyers”. I was watching Drawfee recently, and genuinely all they know about the games is contextualized by Karina’s gay lawyer ship art and brief plot description of how gay the lawyers are. My friend recently told my other friend that Ace Attorney is about gay lawyers to which he was like oh yeah I heard about the unnecessary feelings scene. This is all he knows about the games.

I don’t want to make this sound like a bigger deal than it is, but damn. It truly feels like a lot of people refuse to engage with media in any way that doesn’t involve smashing male characters together like dolls. If you comb through the entirety of the Ace Attorney franchise, you’ll see that such a small fragment of everything that happens is homosexual law, yet that’s the thing that gets amplified to ridiculous proportions. All I can do for now is focus on the posts from fans that love the games themselves just as much if not more than they love the ships.
