"hey guys play this game instead of Palworld bc it didn't plagiarize Pokemon!"

the game in question:

#hazy rambles #palworld #nexomon #not to shit on nexomon im currently playing through it and im having a lot of fun and loving those creature designs #but also can't help but take mental notes of the double standards among people #why is this fine and not direhowl for example?#where do you draw the line?#are you mad bc the pocketpair CEO was into NFTs and AI?#then you're gonna have to avoid digimon yokai watch and monster hunter bc the owners of those have been into AI and NFTs as well #world of final fantasy as well foamstars has AI generated images within it #also should've clarified this earlier on but since this game is on nintendo eshop it means nintendo is absolutely chill with this game #and i wasn't trying to imply it plagiarizes pokemon #and if nexomon isn't plagiarism despite coming REALLY close to pokemon then palworld isn't plagiarism either #have a nice day

The Pit lane line protest being dismissed IS sketchy af though…

The Race Directors notes supersede the ISC, so for them to dismiss the protest with the excuse that “The Race Directors notes were wrong”, when everyone else adhered to them for the race, potentially to their own detriment at points, and for the error only to be addressed and highlighted as such after the race, when it’s been taken to appeal for a team breaching them, is incredibly concerning and does nothing to improve the transparency issues that F1 is currently having.

If the “error” wasn’t picked up and corrected before the race, then the rules as written in the RD notes is how they should be applied

#f1 #monaco gp 2022 #VERY unsatisfactory stewarding yet again #where do you draw the line?#you could just claim anything is an error

Pretty weird to think taking down AO3 will stop racism in fandom..

Like.. did we forget about the guy who was redrawing SU on tumblr as white and blue eyed

#like how does that make sense #u can be too woke #like that’s a chronically online take and u need a break from the Internet if u think ao3 encourages racism #maybe they could add a reporting system but the point is to be able to post anything #not that not allowing racism is censorship but if someone wants to post that ur not gonna be able to stop them #where do you draw the line?#my posts #idk #just rlly stupid take

What's going on in Palestine has really turned out to be a pretty effective litmus test for someone's moral character huh

Like either you're okay with dropping a Hiroshima and Nagasaki amount of bombs on a civilian population, including children, or you're....not.

#but but #the hostages #but but Hamas #how many civilian children is it okay to kill to get to your stated aims?#1 #10?#100?#where do you draw the line?#how many NICU babies is a Hamas terrorist worth cause that's the math you're insisting is valid #anyway #I feel like I'm watching the world lose their fucking mind #like i truly honestly believed the arc of history bent toward justice but this is #I don't even know

I've been going to the gym halfway consistently for most of the year. In the last month, I finally switched my weight reps to ab focused movements, and I'm finally noticing my hereditary "poodge" has started to shrink. It fluctuates, of course. If I'm bloated, over hydrated, cramping, it looks puffy and large again. It's still there at all, just smaller. It may always be. But it's noticeably smaller. I can even fake it being flat if I wear the right shape of underwear.

I feel like I'm treading a dangerous line, here. With a history of disordered eating and distorted body image, I'm fighting viciously against those thought cycles gaining traction. At the same time, a lot of the early steps of those cycles are the first recommendations for controlling my blood sugars and insulin resistance. I even bought a diet book. It is definitely engineered to focus on losing weight.

To be fair, I don't not want to lose weight. It probably wouldn't hurt me, much, too lose a little. But my current weight doesn't seem to be hurting me, either, other than my ego at times.

I just want my body to look to my eyes the way it looks in my brain. I want to look in the mirror and see me and not hate who I'm looking at.

how much do i have to pay you so that you can at least ATTEMPT to add frebby fazbear into the magnus protocol

This tickles me a bit, because thinking about it, we have kinda done some mascot horror in Protocol, but whereas chuck-e-cheese is the archetypical American version, we've drawn horror out of a 90s British mascot. And I'm pretty confident which of the two is more fucked up.

Five Nights at Freddie's does interest, though - I grew up when there was quite a rich array of horror stories aimed at kids: Goosebumps, Are You Afraid of the Dark, the Point Horror books. Now it seems like a lot of that stuff have been supplanted by franchises like Five Nights at Freddie's, which is aimed at kids but marketed as though it's not, and does a lot to try and launder its intended audience. It's interesting to me, though I don't feel like I have a well-developed thesis about it.

#no shade on fnaf #it does what it sets out to do pretty well #but if you look at where it draws out its horror #the themes it focuses on #and where it chooses to draw the line #its pretty clear who its aimed at

next months print club piece is gonna be a laikas comet piece! i worked a bit on it during stream last night but im really excited. im pretty happy with the composition and im just working on details/anatomy sketching rn.

#print club has allowed me to really slow down and take my time on individual pieces rather than cranking stuff out for like #comms/social media #its really awesome. i kind of hit a point where i was happy with my line quality/colors/concepts #but i wanted more practice with like. Structural drawing. rendering. detail work #which isnt something that you can get better at with repetition alone. you also need time to sit and flesh it out #so thats osrt of what print clubs been letting me do #tackle more complicated pieces otherwise i wouldnt have been able to justify #scratchpost

see the danger, always danger endless talking, life rebuilding don't walk away

digital painting, 10 hours - drawing video below

song: atmosphere by joy division

my other spn art

kim manners et al were all about the light through the slats in this episode. i painted another scene from this ep that also had this type of lighting - when john is telling sam and dean he has to leave without them. different location, same kind of light. i feel it though, it's good stuff. i'm also a sucker for it. hence drawing it twice!
