Hi gueys 🧍 (run away again)

[the-cat-and-the-birdie]

Let me tell you there are people out there that think Hobie wouldn't smoke weed because doing so is a 'black stereotype'

They think he wouldn't smoke weed because he's 'too aware' and woke for that and he would never want to be dazed out and intoxicated

Let me tell you

They will believe this - even the guy has said it himself that he gets intoxicated

BY DRINKING.

AND ENJOYS IT.

And to that I say

Bro why

10,001 fics of Hobie at a pub drinking it's cool but then there's a couple of him smoking some trees and it's 'hate when ppl reduce him to a stereotype 😪'

like hey buddy hey pal

I know these statistics are American but the guys from 1978 or something

let's be real here let's be ever so real

if he admits to drinking what convinces you smoking is out of the picture?? do you really think he'd think weed is worse than liqour??

The only alternative I'll accept is he's one of those people that gets anxious while he's high

Cause it's funny to think of Hobie taking a singular hit then being like 'nah bruv that shit is scaring the hell outta me 😩 fuck is my heart racing for'

Reader having to help Hobie chill out cause he got SO HIGH his spider sense started bugging out so now he's laying on the ceiling face down doing deep breathing exercises

And the reader is like 'see that's what you get for trying to hit the bong like that'

That one Calvin Klein ad but make it Lucien Vanserra

I got some new rendering brushes today and I’m really enjoying trying them out! Figuring out my art style is such a journey but I kind of like where this is going so far ☀️

in regards to the constant dismissal of his aroace identity, i hate it when alastor 'fans' say and use the excuse: "he's fictional, he won't get offended."

like, you're right, but it can and will offend us.

when you see yourself being represented on screen, of course you'd feel enthusiastic about it — representation allows individuals to see themselves reflected in the media they consume, validating their identities and experiences. but when so many people take that representation and decide to disregard and discard it, it is so fucking frustrating. we finally have another character to be part of the tiny amount of representation we have, but then people don't even care about how much it means to us? like yeah, alastor won't get offended because he's not real, but it frustrates and annoys us. do you realize that it's also technically invalidating the aroace community? that you're invalidating our feelings? imagine feeling like you're finally being seen because your orientation is finally being represented in media, and people just decide to blatantly ignore, discard, and invalidate it.

media has such a powerful influence on real life, representation being a prevalent factor of it. there are numerous posts that dictate how people went to watch a movie/show or read a book just because a character depicts their identity in it — obviously, being represented is an incredibly uplifting and validating experience.

which is why seeing an aroace character in a popular show is so meaningful to us because we live in a world where romance and sex are literally everywhere and prioritized above all else. (and it's pretty obvious that alastor's on the repulsed end of the spectrum, but even if he wasn't, at least make an effort to acknowledge his sexuality instead of continuing to portray him as allo; aroace folks can be in relationships but it's not going to be the same thing with allos' experiences.)

any and every representation matters, but why does that seem to stop at people under the aroace spectrum? like y'all can't even let us appreciate the scraps of representation we have. we barely have any, so are we really that dramatic for being upset at how people easily disregard and dismiss our identities that are being depicted on screen just like that? is it truly wrong of us to want to defend and maintain the little representation we have?

As fun as it is when people write the Emperor as someone who has his shit together and functions as An Excellent Specimen of a Mindflayer, this alien mastermind who can act like a mentor for illiThav, I have a fondness for the Emperor as like

this absolute wreck of a person.

Mindflayers are supposed to stay with their colony for like 20+ years to learn All The Things Mindflayer and we know Ansur stole him away long before that (I think he said 12 or 13 years). And then put him through what was meant to be cult deprogramming, but probably was just an unfortunate mixture of torture (mental isolation and I can see a measure of starvation added to it) and instilling every insecurity known to man. Guilting the squid not to act squiddy wasn't very effective on the long run, but it sure must have been traumatizing - might even be the reason why the Emperor made such a decisive cut between his old and new identity. We don't know how long Ansur tried before he gave up, but probably quite a few years, dragon sounded like the stubborn sort.

So we have 1. possibly not fully socialized/introduced to the culture in its fullest and 2. some years of being forced to act as close to his old human personality as possible to placate Ansur. 3. continued social isolation where he only interacts with humanoid races, often indirectly at that.

So I like the idea that as the result of all of that he's not really pretending when we meet him properly, he's Just Like That. Not the part about being on top of things, gods know people wrote stories about how he talked his way out of all sorts of nonsense with pure bullshit, he could probably sell beachfront property in the Hells if he tried. Just, his personality and mannerisms as an ungodly mixture halfway between illithid and human, he's just the weirdest squid. Not human anymore, no, but acting and thinking overall too human compared to other mindflayers and he might not even be fully aware of it because he's been isolated from his kind for the last several hundred years. Even post-Absolute he might not know how weird he is, I somehow can't see the elderbrain reintegrating him into the colony when he's clearly defective. Say thank you to Gortash for being curious about his business rival or the Emperor would be past tense.

Anyway, I really like Weird Squid Emperor and I want to put him in a room with Omeluum so nerd squid can take notes and be amazed at this trashfire of an illithid, I think that would be a cool scene actually.

maybe its just me but i cant stand when people are like "it just doesn't sit right with me how teruhashi thought about aiura 🥺" like yes... its not supposed to ??? because her thinking badly of other girls and prioritizing male validation over everything is one of her main flaws ??? can we talk about that WITHOUT making it seem like shes not allowed to have a single actual flaw without suddenly becoming an awful person? nobody can handle complex female characters at all and its so fucking annoying

I was looking through some ninjago minifigures on bricklink with my 6 y/o sister and we stumbled upon the baby wu "minifigure"...

And my sister casually said "skibidi toilet"

And as much as I hate this brainrot... she was absolutely right😭

Like-- LOOK AT IT!!

I'm sobbing... I can't unsee it...

Oh you have complicated feelings towards Germany? Let me make 91836373 assumptions about it with my piss poor understanding of history, not listen to germans at all and then come to a horrendously bad and false conclusion on why that is! Also I think you germans should stop feeling guilty and be proud of your country again!

LMK s5 Spoilers here about Pigsy and his relationship with Mk!!

In episode 5, Pigsy worries about Mk and how he is not letting others help him. Pigsy worries about being Mk's father, thinking that he has failed as a dad to Mk.

How Tang helps Pigsy is so different, like usually people never say it is THEIR FAULT! Yet, he does it in such a way that it works! Mr. Tang explains that Mk wants to help people BECAUSE of Pigsy.

Tang's comfort continues as he motivates Pigsy about how he is not one to quit when Mk is in danger. How Pigsy is always going to try to help people he cares about as much as Mk because he is himself.

Through his comfort, he states the facts that Mk knows he always has Pigsy to be their for him. Even when he is not letting others in, Pigsy through the whole show has always been making sure Mk is safe. Because he is his dad and loves his son Mk!!

Mr. Tang's comfort speech is so amazingly different that it is beautiful. He helped a worried father through a tough time.

...

But these lines, hit too much!!!! WHY DID THEY HAVE THESE HERE, THEY ARE TOO PERFECT! He is so right though, Mk could have left him any time, he was never Pigsy's actual son. Mk chose Pigsy, which Pigsy chose right back...

Khaire everyone , I have a little question ( I think that's what it is ) , especially to any other Hellenic Polytheists

I don't want to get too much into it but basically my family did something really hurtful to me today , it's been really affecting me and I'm not really sure what to do . I did tell King Zeus about it , since he's like a parental figure to me , but it was a really (for lack of a better word) unprofessional conversation. I was crying and stuttering throughout the entirety of it , not confident about what I was saying and I'm not sure if that's respectful to him or if I should do something more . I didn't really dare to ask for anything since I'm not able to give anything in return right now , especially not in this situation ( my family doesn't know I'm pagan and I don't really want to try and explain it to them since i don't think they'll understand ) . Plus I don't have an altar space for him , I just thought he'd understand and listen , especially because he's been very kind & comforting to me before. But I feel bad for not doing anything more , maybe I should've written down my thoughts instead in a sort of letter to him ? But I'm pretty sure my writing would be terrible and full of mistakes. I'm not sure what I'm asking for either , probably advice?

Fuck you if you use AI to generate images by the way. Draw. Use Picrew. Use Gacha Life even. Commission literally any of the artists I reblog. There's so many ways to get what you want and using AI is the lazy selfish thief's way out.

oki so lately i’ve been feeling rlly stressed and stuff when it comes to drawing

like, basically it’s felt like a chore? idk if that’s the right word or not but- basically i think i’m going to stop taking drawing requests

lemme just describe my feelings to y’all rq-

i love to draw, but lately i’ve been less and less focused on drawing what i wanna draw and more focused on i think y’all would like

and if i feel like something just- fails in some way, i get all upset about it (like the eye drawing i did, still not a big fan of it btw-)

i just wanted to let y’all know that none of y’all have ever contributed to these feelings (that ik of- but i srsly doubt it)

this is all me and my anxiety and perfectionism

it’s me getting scared of having my head bitten off because smth wasn’t of my usual standards or of my usual quality

anyways- enough ranting, i love each and every one of you so so much

ima prob take a mini break tmr and maybe another bigger one at some other point this coming week (i don’t wanna do it wednesday since that’s my first day of school and i’ll need yalls moral support)

also, anon, i don’t think i’ll do your request since it’s not one of my fandoms, i’m rlly sorry🫂🫂🫂💖💖💖

i just wanted to thank y’all for being so supportive and sweet to me ever since i joined tumblr

this is definitely one of the hardest decisions i’ve had to make in regards to my tumblr, but i do think this will help my mental health

i will still take suggestions from ppl in my community, but no more art requests

i’m sorry this post is so long omg- ;-;

aaaaaa i love y’alllll

ima tag the whole tag list in this cause this is rlly important imo:)

(also rq reminder that this is only for drawing requests, i’m still gonna take fic requests when i turn them back on:3)

Theres this weird ass trend on tiktok of people drawing crack ships to a song from that jesus movie. I get so irrationally mad when people use it in this trend cuz the lyrics are like person A sings "i could never love another :)" followed by person b singing "maybe one day i could learn to love you too..." and im like dang thats sad as fuck but ALL of the ships drawn in this trend are just happily smiling to eachother???? Like that is not a happy line

Maybe im just a lesbian who has experienced comphet as well as the soul crushing feeling of being an asexual trying to date an allo but "maybe one day i could learn to love you..." is like the saddest thing Ive ever fuckin heard and is not in fact romantic??????

zvtaras and fantaras want firelady k.atara to happen so badly when you literally have aang; liberating an entire school of fire nation students, gaining their love and trust, leading them by knowing several classic fire nation dances already, who knows what the heart of the fire nation was before it was polluted by a dictator, who challenged the false historical teachings of their instructor in class with humor and sincere grace, and who is the only one who knows the blue spirit, the true self of the fire nation’s new firelord and leader. like bruh zukaang is RIGHT THERE and it’s everything you want zvtara to be and/or pretend it is.

not to mention - aang is zuko’s partner (“you knew avatar aang better than anyone”, “lifelong best friends”) not prize. they are friends due to mutual trust. aang got zuko to bend and grow (and vice versa) because he was shamelessly who he is. he would never compromise who he is as the avatar and an air nomad.
