im not gonna hijack that post but theres such an odd fixation i feel in general on the idea that you HAVE to argue and clap back and debate with every single person you see online (even knowing most of them do this in bad faith) and its so. are you not tired. do you know that when ur arguing out in the open like thst ESPECIALLY if you're not part of the group being targeted ur likely just exposing the people you know who ARE part of these minority groups to more vitrol that theyre likely already experiencing more than enough of and would like to avoid as much as possible. please block and move on more often.

edit: idk why this is getting attention all of a sudden but please dont be a clown in my tags or replies.

I mean how big is Len's basement though because it looked rather big from the first art you did but I don't know???? Do They just lie there in pain all day or does Len give it a box of Crayola as a treat sometimes BC it doesn't seem like there's anything to really do in the basement except lie on the floor (also wait is the basement just like one room or is it multiple I've never had a basement) -🌟

Jdjxcmhdjf the one thing you can't ask me is for exact room measurements im not studying architecture 😭😭😭 idk shit abt interior/exterior design ill explode lmaoo... the perspective in my drawings is generally hella fucked so i apologize dhjfjfjf

JDSDJMCMCMCMV CRAYOLAS you are so right tho len should be giving it enrichment but idk if he does... maybe its sleeping shh

from personal experiences basements are just one room, it might be really big or relatively small depending on the building but its there

Could I maybe request SDC +Dio with a s/o that gets their work hours cut in half, and maybe they go scare the manager or smthn? Idk I'm not creative with prompts lmao. Thought it would be funny, thank youuu!!

SDC + DIO x Reader with their hours cut

CW: Death mention, horny old people,

Notes: hey! Sorry it took so long! I really tried with this one. 😭 I hope you like it! I’m still fleshing out their personalities. I’m still getting used to writing new characters. Even if this sux I hope you and everyone else can find some sort of enjoyment from this! 💜 Beryl

——————————————————

Richie McRichardson doesn’t realize that you need to build a good resume. 🙄 or the fact we live in the real world where we have to make our own money.

Well no friend of his is going to get their hours cut! He’s going to use hermit purple to fuck around with electronics section and manipulate the tvs to make them glitch out and act possessed.

“GiVe Y/n FuLl TiMe HoUrS aNd BeNeFiTs…. Or ElSe. GiVe ThEm A pAy RaIsE ToO…”

“AlSo… ClEaN uP oN IsLe 6…”

Jotaro

“Good grief. Do I really need to get involved in this? Fine. Let’s go.” He sighed as he cracked his knuckles.

Your boss might die today. 😬 tell him to hold back a bit kay? I don’t think the Speedwagon Foundation wants to bail him out for getting into a onesided fist fight with a Target supervisor.

Thankfully he doesn’t have to do much. All he has to do is stare your boss down menacingly.

“I heard you were cutting Y/Ns hours. How about you fix that?”

Your supervisor is literally pissing their pants. 😰 He doesn’t leave until you get all your hours. Then he’s gonna smoke INSIDE the damn store because he’s disrespectful. If anyone tells him there’s no smoking allowed in the store he’s going to tell them to go fuck themselves 😭

Kakyoin

He’s going to use his charm to get his way. He’s gonna get you your hours back. If his charisma SOMEHOW doesn’t work he’s going to use Hierophant Green to string himself out so the boss and other employees keep tripping over what looks like nothing. 😂

The boss is freaking out getting slapped in the face and his ass whipped and has no idea what’s going on.

“Was this store built on a fucking graveyard?!” Your boss panics.

“You should really watch where you’re going sir.” He says smugly.

The boss finally gives in to your demands after they get clotheslined by HGs tentacle limb 🥴

Avdol

“Hmm? You're not getting any hours? That’s not according to YOUR fortune habibi/habibti! 😉”

He got some tricks up his sleeve. He’s going to get you your fortune…as told by his fortune! 🔮😅

“I have seen your fortune! You’re in grave danger. According to the ___ card it means you are going to lose all your wealth, health, and happiness!”

Your boss somehow believes this. Who wouldn’t believe a charismatic self assured middle eastern man in ornate robes and jewelry??? That’s a person you won’t forget!

To add some extra razzle dazzle he catches your bosses hair on fire. 🔥

Now he really thinks he’s cursed.

“Tell me mysterious customer! How do I fix this?! 😭😭😭”

Return the slab— “Give Y/N their hours back! And give them all the benefits and pay raises they need to live comfortably!”

Your boss gives in and does everything Avdol says. You’re officially getting paid as much as your boss now in fear of getting “cursed” again. …and to prevent 3rd degree burns 🥵

Polnareff

Your boss is about ready to taste some metal and I’m not talking about guns.

“Hey—! What gives?! First you don’t give my amour their hours and now your toilets are filthy and broken as hell! They won’t flush! 😤”

He’s already a menace for clogging the toilet. 😬 he’s going to go Karen mode on your boss.

“What the hell kind of economy do you think we live in pal?! I demand you give my baby all their hours! What do you expect them to live off of? Ramen noodles?! Not on my watch buddy!” He’s loud af and poking him in the chest.

If he back sasses the mighty Polnareff he’s going to have to sword fight Silver Chariot with a pool noodle from the outdoors section. 😅

He uses his craftsman’s swordship to slice the bosses belt and pubically pantses him 😂

He has no idea how he was able to air sword fight and cut his belt but he did and that’s why you have all your hours and why Polnareff is banned from every single Target ever in existence. Like that’s gonna stop him 🥴

Dio

“Why work such a meager job when you can work for me and kill the joestars instead ~?”

Because we don’t want to get our asses hospitalized and we live in the real world asshole. 🙄

Very well~. Dio is a generous partner, he will gladly solve your employment problem. 😈

But first—shopping spree~ 💅 he’s gonna fill up on some hair gel, green lipstick, sunscreen, and other unnecessary Knick Knacks. Yes he has a Live Laugh Love poster decoration in the basket. 🤢

“So I heard from my lovely Y/N that you aren’t giving them enough hours. How about a compromise? I’m in a good mood today so I’ll let you live if you give them all their hours back plus a raise.”

Your boss can’t believe you had the audacity to bring in a metrosexual bi vampire to scare him into getting what you want! He’s not gonna take you crazies seriously and tell you to take a hike!

“Oh ho~…” he has a mischievous glint in his eyes. Well you can’t stop him now!

“The World!!!” He summons his stand and takes his shopping cart.

“Road roller at target!!!” He laughs like a mad man as he runs over your boss.

…I think he’s dead ☠���

Dio somehow uses his charm to make you the new boss of Target. You still do the same job you usually do— you just get the pay and title now while everyone else does the hard work…. Honestly I don’t think you even need to go to work anymore. You’re just getting paid just to be paid!

going through fhr book 1 again bc i want to make a seaparate save for chen since i was already w/ mortum and i feel bad being messy and im connecting dots i missed entirely before

[monsieurboyardee]

modern au lbh is a super famous model and actor, and he is always talking about his boyfriend, the cutest and prettiest and kindest man alive. And so everyone is super curious as to who this bf is, all this anticipation…and then this weeb with bedhead just walks in like “hey”.

Like just imagine. The tension is thick in the air, everyone is on the edge of their seats, any minute now lbh’s famed bf is gonna walk thru that door!! He must be beautiful!! Otherworldly!!

Sy, in his stained hatsune miku sweater, fingerprints all over his glasses: whats up

For a moment everyone is like “…is that a new temp or smthn??” And then lbh just screams “YUAN-GE!!!!!” and LAUNCHES himself at this strange little man and everyone just about vomits blood.

Sy is in fact wearing socks with adidas sandals. The socks are tucked over his sweatpants.

Everyone stares at where lbh and sy are conversing, just absolutely seething with jealousy. How tf did GQ’s hottest man alive (for five consecutive years!!) fall for THAT?? Especially when he could do so much better!!! Like so much!!! He could have anyone he ever wanted?? Why did he go for the guy with the fuckin yy stallion novel themed backpack???

But then idk maybe someone snarkily insults lbh (out of anger and jealousy at his dating preferences) and Sy just snaps his head in a perfect 90 degree circle and is just like “You wanna repeat that?” And then just starts TEARING THIS POOR PERSON APART. Sy doesnt even realize that the person was really insulting him, all he understood was that there was a slight against his binghe mixed in there and as the President of lbh’s fanclub he will NOT stand for any kind of slander against his perfect lil meow meow!!

Meanwhile lbh is just letting this happen while he watches sy with stars in his eyes lol

And maybe they get sy all dressed up to do some photoshoot and when sy steps out in an emerald suit with contacts in and his makeup done, everyone is like “wait shit!!! He is rlly attractive!!!”

And then someone’s like “hey does he kind of remind u of someone?” And that’s when everyone realizes that this is the famed lil brother of shen jiu, an acting legend and lbh’s own acting coach

hi friend! wanted to ask you smthn

ive been thinking and wondering why Snow didn't have Katniss (and everyone she loves) killed outright honestly or staged it somehow.

i'm remembering how Haymitch won and i still don't see it as a way of 'mocking' the capital. but Katniss' stunt with the berries was far more openly rebellious to me as a reader yet Snow sat on this decision to take care of her but murdered Haymitch's family within 2 weeks

im just contemplating hmmmm was it because others were already rebelling as well and if he took her out ASAP then it might've just added fuel to the fire ?

you got me wanting to revisit the series!!!! curse you (affectionately)!!!!!! i need to find a thesis topic send help OTL

hi there! well, you're definitely right in your assessment that haymitch's defiance was less inflammatory in the grand scheme of things. idk if you have read tbosas but i think that book gives you a good idea of how snow is not just obsessed with power but also control. and haymitch doing what he did took some of the capitol's control over the narrative of what makes a victor. it wasn't that he won because he proved himself to be the stronger, more ruthless fighter. he won because he was smart. and while you can easily manipulate a victor who wins the games on the capitol's terms (and is basically a capitol drone), a victor who defies this traditional victor narrative and uses the capitol's weapons against them poses much more of a threat (at least in snow's eyes). and i think, at least to a degree, snow was worried that if given a chance, victors like haymitch would use their status to rally people behind them. so he made an example of him. he didn't have to kill all of haymitch's loved ones, but he did. simply to show that he can. (not just show haymitch but every living victor and all the victors to come.) in the end, i don't think that it had much to do with haymitch and everything to do with the possibility of what some like haymitch could represent. the kind of stories you could spin around someone like haymitch.

and then katniss comes around, and unlike haymitch, she isn't reaped. she volunteers for her little sister—a blond, pretty little thing that half of panem becomes enamoured with over the course of katniss's games. the people do not just fall in love with prim, they also fall in love with katniss, the girl that keeps showing a lot of compassion for the people around her. and she does draw attention with that. people know her. people support her. oh and what a story she makes! oh what a narrative! the girl who volunteered! the girl on fire! and then she does the most rebellious thing by pulling out the poisonous berries and threatening the victor narrative that has been so carefully established over the years. the girl with the berries! she flips the script in the most radical way, and if she didn't have all of panem's eyes on her before, she does now. and the people look at her and her compassion and begin to stir. they begin to see that change is possible, so they rebel. you mentioned it already, but killing her AFTER the stunt with the berries was impossible. not just because people would have known why and by whom she was killed, but because it would have added fuel to the fire. snow, much like coin later on, realises that the rebellion will only co-opt her image and make her a martyr. snow definitely sees that katniss alive can be used in a way that can potentially help his cause, whereas katniss dead will always gonna end up helping the rebels in their cause. and killing katniss's mother might have been possible without raising many questions, but killing prim? no way he could have had her killed without making people suspicious. there is also a big chance that the rebels would have co-opted prim's death as well (or at least bank on the suspicions swaying some people). and without her family, how would snow have anything to control katniss with?

and the thing is. while haymitch was an incovenience he was never a real threat. not the way katniss is. killing haymitch's family was a means to an end, but nothing more. snow didn't need to control him beyond making him fall in line because haymitch had absolutely no social power to rival snow's. but katniss has. she has many of the district citizens at her back. and the only way to contain her (in snow's eyes) is to hold the threat of hurting her loved ones over her head. take that away and snow has nothing to stop her from leaning into the role the rebellion has assigned her. which is also why he doesn't kill peeta in mockingjay. again, with peeta gone there would be nothing holding katniss back from working with the rebels.

the social power that haymitch and katniss wielded after their respective games is basically what makes all the difference (in my opinion). and that's why, with katniss, snow's hands were tied by circumstance (in a way). retaliating against her directly (either by harming her or by harming her family) would have resulted in more problems than solutions, while killing haymitch's family & girlfriend was a quick and efficient way to stop an inconvenient victor in his tracks AND use him as an example that saves snow the time to put every victor in their place individually. in a cruel way, haymitch simply had bad luck on top of his bad luck.

girl help this old point and click adventure game i downloaded from my friend has taken over my computer

anyways, BMC Point & Click Adventure!! woo

inspired by @homo-phoneic & @olliefeelsthings in this tumblr post

okay. so ive been working on this for a month in random bursts but I finally finished it! I have a ton of ideas and rambling underneath if you care to look at it

basically my thought process for this is it's a standard point and click adventure, smthn like pajama sam for example. You collect and combine items, go do certain missions/tasks, etc as the Squip guides you. You have a generic menu, and a tasks list you can see for missions.

Very ambitious but it'd probably have a few endings where the Squip or you win and whether or not you follow the Squip or not.

Overtime the sidebars (gotta have that classic 4:3 aspect ratio) add circuits that glow depending on the Squip's control. The Squip can ignore these as well as the gui that it kinda chills in throughout the whole game. It does this more 4th wall breaking stuff as the plot progresses. Eventually it directly acknowledges the player and tries to stop them from helping Jeremy and it takes over your cursor.

Also a tutorial might involve the Squip telling the player how to do stuff with a fully controlled Jeremy meanwhile breaking the 4th wall a little bit. so that'd be uh,, fun :] (hhh pain)

(the play also has extra glitches from the 2rt album art for fun effect. idk. felt right lol)

anyways. hopefully i nailed the style of old shitty point and click adventures to some degree! Flashy colors, weird background proportions, etc. Enjoy!

might end up not going to towsen because film studies might be more of a focus on "studying the process of creating films" and instead of a minor in japanese i could always work with a tutor and get the N5+ certification so idk

i might also go and instead do an english degree of some kind with a minor in japanese, because itd look good for editing or translation if i wanted to do that, but idk. smthn im thinking about

[gazeboarcade]

hmmmmm just some ideas

[xxxg0ryygurlll13xxx]

why is it literally so embarrassing to say i wanna go to art college?????😭😭😭😭

like one of my friends is planning on going to the air force she’s never gotten a grade below an 80 my bf is planning on being an engineer and is amazing at math and science my best friend is planning on being a veterinarian and going to an ivy league and is in almost all AP classes. I CAN BARELY DO SIMPLE MATH AND WANNA BE AN ARTIST.

in the eyes of most of the world i will literally go nowhere in life. i really just wish ppl like accepted visual art as a career more than they do (at least in the states) like i usually get odd looks or a “and what r u gonna do w that?” when i say i wanna get a degree in art. like everything is made of art. nothing would exist without art, from the sketches of the buildings u see to the clothes u wear everything is made of art and no one seems to care. my parents keep pushing me to do smthn w politics, my teachers want me to do smthn w writing or literally anything but art same w my family. idk i have a lot of negative feelings abt grades and smarts, tiny rant but i’ve literally never felt smart my whole life cause i’m terrible at math and science.

like please i just want to be happy with my career and life. i don’t want to work a soul sucking job or one where literally the fates of millions are in my hands. i just want to create and unfortunately that seems like too much to ask.

i think young people have basically just started viewing gender affirming surgery as cosmetic surgery. so they feel the same way about it as people feel about wanting a nose job or a boob job or whatever. like even though they don't have gender dysphoria they just think they'd prefer their body with different sex characteristics. people have no idea about gender affirming surgery and how new, dangerous and how much maintenance it is

it. IS cosmetic surgery. nose jobs are part of ffs and a transwoman getting top surgery is just a boob job. dysphoria in this context is more or less just dysmorphia about specifically sexed/gendered characteristics - that "i don't like my current body features and i think i'd be happier with surgical alterations" is the same thing non-trans ppl feel that drives them to other kinds of cosmetic surgery - and it comes in different degrees, just like it does for dysphoric/trans ppl. idk i guess u could say in the cases where someone doesnt feel a huge amount of discomfort, it's mild enough to not be clinical and not count as dysphoria/dysmorphia... but i think if its smthn ur willing to go under the knife for (and risk literal death. even for smthn as 'small' as a nose job or a boob job or top surgery) then... idk if i would say it's definitely a mental illness but it's not fucking healthy. i would say that's dysphoria/dysmorphia, even if it's more mild than some ppls dysphoria/dysmorphia.

it's tru tho that many ppl are uninformed abt just how dangerous some of it is. bottom surgery (be that transmasc or transfem) is crazy dangerous has enormous complication rates and for transfems is smthn u will have to maintain ur entire life. (again tho there's other cosmetic surgery that is just as dangerous - the bbl has the highest mortality rate of any cosmetic surgery)
