there's something so deeply dystopian to me how tech companies don't understand that a forced convenience is not a convenience at all. i'm sure autocorrect is helpful for many, but a function that forcibly changes my actual written words and punctuation is taking away my language. photo filters can be nice but i need to choose using them myself or else i have lost the ability to take the picture i want. i don't want a machine to draw or write for me. taking away the option for me to do things manually feels like violence!!!! all this talk of endless opportunity, why are you RESTRICTING me
#haha im upset an android update removed my most used screenshotting tools while forcing more ai garbage on me#tech companies go sit in the staircase and think about what you've done#there are many technical conveniences i choose to rely on because they're convenient for my sensibilities#but these should not be the default for anyone or the only option#it's like. it's technology. it has the capability of being personalised for our actual use and convenience like isn't that the POINT#AHHHHHHHHH#also with all the ai bullshit it's so hard to fully underline how much i enjoy the act of drawing and creating and i don't WANT it to be#more 'convenient' or easy?#not in the eay techbros think anyway. i think there should be accessibility tools and options to make the Process good for Your Needs#which is not. having a machine create something in your stead ??? ??????????

Was looking at refs and since Viktor has two different leg braces I was wondering, do we think he wears them simultaneously?? The refs don't perfectly line up perspective-wise so it's hard to tell but parts of the one he wears during the Hexcore scenes look like they could maybe line up with the brace that he wears over his clothes, but also some parts really don't and look like they'd be super uncomfy. Also HOW does he take these on and off. Experts weigh in
#viktor#arcane#ig my assumption would be that he wears both simultaneously cause in the scene where he injects the shimmer#it seems implied that he just threw off his clothes and kept experimenting#so one might assume he was already wearing the smaller one underneath#tho it is a funny image to think of him just being like 'one sec i gotta go all the way home and grab my other brace to do this'#he can take off the back brace too cause hes not wearing it in the scene where he's in the hospital bed and you can see his shoulder#where the strap would be#but that one seems to make even less sense functionality wise#everything looks like its screwed together#or screwed INTO him#but only the top bolts on his spine are i think#in the close ups of his back brace model it looks like theres cushioning underneath the parts of it that cover the rest of his spine#so he can take it off. but HOW#what parts of it unscrew/detatch to pull open and off#does it not do that at all and he just has to shimmy it off his shoulder and all the way down his legs to get it off like a romper#the shape language of the designs are cool but like. tell me how it wooorrkkksss#forgive me if im just dumb and dont know at all how braces work and theres a very simple practical explanation for all this#any king who wants to infodump about mobility aids at me....the floor is yours#something to be said i suppose about the fact that zaunites have crazy prosthetics with wild augmentations that work flawlessly#and piltover's like. idk heres some fucking uncomfortable ass metal. salo gets wheelchair in non ada compliant place#they havent ever needed to adapt to accommodate disabilities etc etc#or maybe artists were just like 'heres a design' and everybody clapped and didnt give it a second thought#and then they just turned off the visibility on the mesh when they didnt need it knowing thered not be a scene where its taken off#dont even wanna THINK about what that rig would look like#like 40 different controllers#soft body and rigid hard surfaces needing to move together....#a cold chill just shot up my spine#<- guy who is only an animator and doesnt know how to rig#forgive the magic wand tool with zero cleanup. i am lazy

#I love these datamoshing things i think I’m going to play around with it#I think it’s been underutilized as a tool#since you can use it selectively if you want#you can make a gif were the effect occurrs at variable points#pmmm

“A thousand generations serve to praise…”
#listening to the 1996 ending and getting emotional at the last line#thinkin bout how even literally thousands of generations later we’re still making new adaptations of this guy#and still talking about everyone’s favorite lil monkey guy#and after all - isn’t that true immortality?#sun wukong#jttw sun wukong#journey to the west 1986#journey to the west 1996#havoc in heaven#monkey king#monkey king reborn#lego monkie kid#lmk sun wukong#lmk fanart#digital art#my art#journey to the west#I’ve been wanting to make a piece like this for a while#thank god for the symmetry tool…#I’ve been really locked into work lately so this was a relaxation piece#my only regret is that I didn’t have enough stamina to shade it#but I still like the vibrant colors a lot so it’s cool 👍#I ordered it by timeline#some of my favorite Wukongs :)

i hope everyone in nintendo’s management department dies and goes to hell no matter what and i’m not kidding
#WERE LOSING YUZU AND CITRA. I DONT KNOW IF YOU ALL UNDERSTAND HOW INSANE THIS IS#game emulation enables piracy yes but it’s also an INCREDIBLY powerful archival tool.#there are plenty of games out there that only exist in their original formats due to emulation.#this lawsuit has HORRIBLE implications for video game history. it makes it incredibly easy for companies to scorched earth their products#if they’re not profitable enough. ART IS GOING TO BE LOST BECAUSE OF THIS. GAMES PEOPLE WORKED INCREDIBLY HARD ON#it won’t just happen to bad games. it won’t just happen to old games. they will use this to keep their remake/virtual console model going#forever and you will never be able to play your favorite games in their true original forms ever again.#i am fucking INSANELY mad rn. capitalism is the death of art fr#personal

So who’s a proper munch?
a proper munch? As in the old school definition of it?
Ghost. Ghost will eat you out for his own enjoyment, will jack off thinking about eating you out, will swipe the juice off his cock just to lick his fingers clean of you. The man will live and die by pussy, and he'll be happier for it. If this man never had to use his cock he'd be happier for it, but for some reason you keep whining and beggin' so he can't say no to fucking you.
Not that the others don't enjoy eating you out, but it's often a preview of the main event. Sure they're excited to get you off, but they're stroking their cock thinking about fucking you, not tasting you.
#x reader#cod x reader#simon ghost riley#ghost mw2#simon ghost riley x reader#ghost x reader#simon riley#simon riley x reader#I think his trauma makes him more interested in his partner's pleasure#finding a safe place to be used as a tool in order to combat the#terrible awful memory of being used without his consent#but also I think he's just not always interested in sex#he is however always interested in getting you off

and together we set out on a journey to find treasure! (id in alt)
#dungeon meshi#marcille donato#laios touden#falin touden#delicious in dungeon#dunmeshi spoilers#for the second img…. anyway this episode was SOOO good - marcille you never fail to make me weep a little#this was one of the chapters that also got me rly into dunmeshi… i like how marcille’s fear is smth that Can be interpreted as broad#and common - like how laios initially thought - but ultimately it’s quite specific… naturally running at a faster pace and attempting to use#magic - her only tool - did not help either. thus coming to deeply desire a unique tool in somebody else’s hands#to build a future where her loved ones can keep running with her. i lauv u so much marcille

It’s my favourite little guy!
Horror sans!
I wanted to go for something a little more moody/spooky but I’m not sure if I quite hit that… the colours look pretty neat at least!
(Please also ignore how long it’s been since I’ve posted/drawn anything…)
#horrortale#horror sans#bad sanses#utmv#undertale au#au sans#horrortale sans#drawing#artists on tumblr#anime art#my art#digital art#digital drawing#horror sans fanart#he is actually one of my favourite au sanses#for real for real#I wanted to really have his eye as the focus with the pop of red against all the blue#I think it worked#but there are probably ways to make it better#ah well#I also used a sketching tool for the line art to hopefully help with the aesthetic#and keep things a little looser#but this was fun#I’ve been very busy/burnt out so I haven’t made anything for a while#hopefully that changes soon
