4 out of 12 pages are references. That's about half of the references i will end up using. So. 8 pages of references mean i only have 30 pages not 40. Help¿?

#uh #it says 40 pages in Total including references and that official statement you didn't plagiarize #which takes up an entire page #and i think also the german summary we're forced to write for some reason #which will also take up 1 page #i haven't even finished my 1st chapter #i have no introduction either #i might be able to make the references a bit less space consuming #by setting the line spacing to 1 instead of 1.5 as for the rest of the text #i usually do that for term papers as well and no one ever complained so i can get it down to 6 pages #goddammit #I'm just rambling #this is a disaster #academic misery

crashes ur board meeting n drags u out by the collar but its fine bc youre the one always saying shit like "im looking for people i can use" ok lol. get used idiot

#just tracing like. the sequence of events that had to take place in order for this to come to pass #1. natori and his shiki are skulking around homura stalking ban. possibly it's just his shiki and natori is elsewhere.#either way 2. natsume shows up and natori learns about it either bc he witnesses it or a shiki comes to tell him #3. natori gets in his little richard scarry apple car (this is my mental image for some reason) & fucking. BOOKS IT to the matoba compound #4. goes inside. presumably matoba lackeys try to stop him bc their boss is in an important meeting but somehow he gets past them #(possibilities here are v fun to think about. maybe natori does this all the time and they're used to it. maybe he's never done it before #but they're all on orders to let natori in if he ever shows up. maybe natori convinces them he's supposed to be IN the meeting #which is great because it sounds like some important clan thing so what is he in the clan now??)#5. interrupts matoba's meeting like 'i need you' and matoba's like 'bye everyone whatever this is is more important'#6. they get in natori's comical apple car (again the apple car is not canon don't worry about it)#& natori drives like a bat out of hell back to homura. (SOURCE: matoba is so scarred he refuses natori's offer for a ride later)#i wonder what they talk about on the way there? because they don't talk about why natori is stalking ban until much later #so they must be busy talking about something else. but what??#that or they're both too distracted by all the near-death experiences from natori's crazed driving lol #natsume's book of friends #natsume yuujinchou #homura cats arc #horrible exorcists #my posts #sidenote i feel like that page at the end where both matoba and sensei refuse natori's offers of a ride is really funny because #sensei's reason is that it will take too long. but sensei did you know natori drives like a speed demon? think it thru...#also like. how long did it take him to decide to involve matoba? was that his backup plan all along?#also it's pretty lucky that he found matoba at all considering he could be anywhere...the matoba have like 15 houses...#he has matoba's schedule memorized lol #natori sparkling to the assorted clan members in the meeting: sorry ladies and gentlemen i just need to borrow this~#*throws matoba over his shoulder and fireman-carries him to the parking lot*

anybody remember the stephanie brown essay I was working on under a research grant fully last summer? yeah it’s not done yet it super needs to be done and I’ve been avoiding working on it for weeks. someone tell me to just do it already

#the problem is. actually there are several problems #1) I’ve been out of the Batman/dc comics phase for almost a year so I don’t care that much about the topic #2) I am fifteen pages in and have not touched it in months so I’ve completely lost my train of thought #3) I can’t just reread it because I hate first five pages or so and I know I need to change it but I was trying to finish before editing #so now my only solution is I need to open up a new doc and completely restructure the whole thing by splicing together the existing writing #so that I can figure out where the hell im going with this and make sure things fit together better #unfortunately that sounds fucking exhausting #but I told my mentor I would have an update for him by the end of the week and. well. it’s the end of the week #I have to present it in April. I have to write and submit an abstract in March #the school gave me $1500 for this stupid essay and if I don’t have anything to show for myself.#well. I don’t know they can’t take the money BACK but it’s not a good look #and also I would feel bad #I did the research!!! i interviewed comic writers even!!! I just haven’t finished WRITING IT DOWN #and I KNOOOOWW once I get started it’ll be fine once I’m going I’m going #but STARTING is hard because I feel like I have to finish it in one go which makes it so huge and daunting #I’m like. slamming my head into a wall. just write a couple sentences Jess something is better than nothing #just start it you don’t have to finish just START just MAKE the new DOC #I know!!!!! that is what my therapist would say!!!! Jess you’re trying to oneshot it bc of your dumb adhd brain!!!!#stop looking at it like that and making it scarier!!!#but even tho I know that logically I’m still like oh I should put away the dishes o should make bread #I should work on my six different art pieces I should do laundry i should play with the puppy I should go for a walk I sh

had an odd dream that i was reading a comic book. sketched a couple of the pages i could remember.

#i might adapt this into an actual story because i am SO SO SO mad that it isn't a thing i can go back to reading #oc #im definitely keeping the concept of save-bot i fucking love save-bot he's just doing his best. i love a robot who wants to help people #im not equipped to be writing about underground rebellions with any sense of real tact though #besides its in a superhero universe/story so you know it would just be so sucks lol #sketch #god the colors were so interesting. the teal parts were all very precisely crosshatched and the fire was this gorgeous brush pen looking #colored inks that just seemed like they were MOVING #and i mean some of that was because i was dreaming but god even in my halfhearted copy you can see some of the movement #it was a bad scene but a really really REALLY fun dream. i love when a book can *get* to me so i was really enjoying it #put it aside so i could take a break and woke up. instant fury at the universe for not having it be a real book instead #ill reblog with details if anyone's curious. i can explain this scene but i dont feel like it #the green people are in a secret basement though. hiding from the government. blue jacket guy is a speedster robot named save-bot who does #rescue stuff with every fire department so fire suppression technology is not very good because save-bot "can just save you''#however they're badly over their legal occupancy and the secret basement has One (1) exit so everyone is like really fucked here.#includinig save-bot who is going to do his job until he dies because he is an ai without any sense of self preservation and he cares #which i didn't even CATCH until i woke up and started tryin to frantically note everything down #and then i was like wait. the glitter on that last page before i realized i needed a glass of water to keep reading... what WAS that...#(it was tears suspended in midair because save-bot goes so fast and also knows he's so fucked LOL)#seriously i'm so mad someone else didn't make this.

happy friday to everyone except my coworker who asked if I could help with a couple of things and then dumped a mountain of work on me with less than 1.5 hours left of the week 🙃

#i've been super busy today and was finally onto my last thing and she messaged #so i was like ok i've got one thing left to do so i can take on A COUPLE of bits (because i try to be helpful and also i can't say no)#and she sends me THREE things including two 100+ page strategies to review and write up summaries of #like girl what?? it is friday afternoon who offloads this much onto somebody else 😭#also because i am approving her work today i can see that whilst i was putting a shift in getting this done she only wrote one (1) thing #(which was a mess and needed a bunch of editing on my part because it was mostly just copied and pasted instead of summarised)#talking

fun connection on this archived kickstarter update from the 2011 production/s of "the bus" as found by @broadway-heere-i-come ft. many pics from their trip to wichita, kansas for several performances there, including this one

fantastic stuff & was noticing that it seems like partly legible lyrics back there, which sent me over to consult that q&a sincerely me vlog again like hang on lol. and sure enough

lo, behold

#giving ''every moment'' vs ''where a moment'' but i'm sure either is plausible just based on listening. anyone got a cd insert booklet #tragic that further pages of the kickstarter aren't waybacked up. may not have let you access them if not a backer?#lot of great stuff on page 1 though fr #will roland #hey beautiful #(the The Bus tag lol)#live it up!:#deh #maybe could've used a fourth take actually lmao. let's all watch the 6+ min ''interview'' w/those two seeing spamalot together #love the bit right at the start where someone asks what mike faist's hair smells like & will immediately launches into explaining what it #feels like & michael park is like oh yup. we've all been there. probably the more fun answer anyways #speaking of him b/c it's such a Journey of a video i never remember precisely when mike faist barrels through the door #get out!!! what were you thinking....#used to keep forgetting it happened at all which was a delight. happens during the karaoke / singing in shower answer!#oh i also had the thought like. the Probably Non Phone Photography of 2011 here #noticed that like ''Portrait of someone near the camera with motion blur towards its focus point'' & also noted it as feeling like #a Stock Photo kind of phenomenon now decidedly Out Of Date. then thinking like well that might not be much of a coincidence lol #as in: it would be a spontaneous Photo Effect ppl were more accustomed to At The Time. maybe!#(just realizing fantastic grammatical ambiguity. i meant the ''including this one'' in the opening there to be going off of ''many pics #[...] including this one'' but that it can be interpreted as ''several performances there [...] including this one [will karaoke.jpg]''#like wow works great either way actually lmao. no notes)#p.s. i dunno why some of the lyrics were bolded. did not enter any of the terms into the search. Watch You Smile While Sleeping emphasis

Everytime I face a new character limit on a website that didn't have them before/used to have really long ones... AUGHHhhh the modern social media world was not made for people like me (lovers of details, rambling, elaboration, thorough explanation, and nuance)

#twitter and other short form shit and everything being a Phone App On Small Screen instead of a Proper #Computer Website i feel like has just ruined the format of literally everything for me. Thoughts just keep getting more and more condensed #with detail and nuance taken away. everything over simplified into only the basics. blah blah blah. I've already probably rambled about thi #all before but it's just SO frustrating. I literally just CAN NOT talk that way!!! even if I try!!! I took multiple advanced placement #english & language arts classes in school and I literally never made below an A on any assignment EVER except for ESSAYS #where I would legit get almost failing grades just because I cannt express myself concisely. I took an english placement test thats made to #like evaluate your competency in a subject and out of the 102 multiple choice questions I only missed TWO of them. almost a perfect #score. But for the 5 open response questions (about articulating thoughts succinctly) I did not get a single one of them lol #I only got partial credit on 3. It's like I OBVIOUSLY understand the material and I know how Words Work and how to analyze and interpret #meaning and etc. etc. But it's just when I have to express myself CLEANLY I can't. It's always ''well you have very good points and you #get around to the idea eventually and I think it's very insightful - but it just needs to be shorter/the side tangent needs to be removed/#etc.'' I've always wondered if it has something to do with being on the schizophrenia spectrum and how that can cause disorganized #speech sometimes hmm..ANYWAY.. But I just naturally express myself in a very particular way which is lengthy and I can't rea #ly seem to control it. So it's basically like just.. being gradually pushed out of every place that won't accomodate people with different #ways of like perceiving and expressing or etc. Everything cannot ALWAYS be 100% 'Short and Snappy and To The Point' or a quippy one #liner or the Bare Minimum of information being provided or etc. Some peoples brains just do not work like that!!!!! Sorry I operate #in detail and elaboration lol. ANYWAY.. I still sometimes use random ''dating sites'' like OKCupid to look for platonic friends since #I never leave the house so it's hard for me to just meet friends naturally. And I just realized today that they added a RIDICULOUSLY small #character limit to their messaging system (2000 words?? augh). And also took away answer explanations (when you answer a compatibility #question you used to have a space to give detail and explain why you answered the way you did) and removed a few other features and it's ju #t like.. how the fuck is any of this actually helpful in terms of judging compatibility? take away ALL nuance and anyting that actually #is meant to tell you anything about a person? Bumble's character limits for your profile description are even more fucking insane and so #is every other disgustingly minimalistic place I've seen like.. OKC used to be superior BECAUSE it allowed for a TON of detail. like back i #2016 or something there was SO much data you could look at. long form question answers. personality trait summaries. etc. Now you have #SOO little to judge off of when evaluating compatibiility it's like. You'd have better luck just throwing a dart in a crowded street and #talking to whoever it hits. Why are people so fucking allergic to reading anything longer than 3 words and providing DETAILS!! It just seem #harder and harder to find any place to meet platonic friends where you have any amount of actual data to go off of and it isnt basically #just random 'speed dating' set up shit. AARGH. &I know 'oh just join a club& meet ppl irl' 1. erm..covid. 2.I mostly want to meet ppl #in places I'd like to move so I already know ppl when I get there. You kind of HAVE to do that online. bc I am not there yet.. WISHING for #Complexity.Com where ppl can upload full 900 page psychological files of themselves. MINIMUM profile character limit 30k words lol

sup.

#dimond speaks #grand return #announcing it this time so people can hold me accountable lol #IT'S GETTING DONE THIS YEAR I PROMISE.#I'm doubling down. Goal is to release the critique section before February 10th #which means i gotta crack down HARD to get it done in time #Most of the script is already written #I just gotta clean it up and record the audio #the thing that will take the longest is video editing #but even then that shouldn't take me too long #as long as i remain focused I believe I can do it #as of writing this there are 33 pages in the script and counting #looking to be about 40 when i'm done #i just gotta rework some stuff in the middle #the beginning and ending is done #and in terms of the rewrite itself i already have the full story. i just have to script it.#if all goes well the script for Chapter 1 will be done before the critique section goes up on YouTube #but I also am gonna stop here because I don't wanna build unrealistic expectations for myself #but yeah! Feb 10. That's the goal.#wish me luck!

When ppl in person realize i can draw, and i mention im writing, theyre like: oh are you making a comic? Then when i say no, it took me 30 days to do a 30 page 1 chapter comic last time I tried at 4-6 hours of work a day and ideally id like a turnaround of like one 30 page chapter per 1-2 weeks if i was going to do it long term so. No. I am not making comics any more.

Then theyre like: are u gonna illustrate ur book???

And while i deeply appreciate the sentiment. Its also like... well my good sir madam elder, do u typically... look for adult novels with illustration pages? I mean yes i love illustrations too but im not sure why id draw extra, when im already gonna probably make my own cover, and i want my books to be enough within confines of expected that ppl idk... give em a chance? Idk. Food for thought. Do i illustrate my book chapters mm

#rant #shdhdh #to be fair the person who asked me expected like a 100 page handwritten poem book with illustrations #not a 300-500 page novel when she asked if i was gonna do illustrations #i also like. for my Own indulgence. Considered a sexy Guide Book for my story universe. which is where yeah ALL my #goddamn character design sketches and map art and faerie illustrations and landscape art could go #since. i drew thousands of pictures when making lore lmao #but like. all that art is on paper. and i know itll take like 30 hours to 100 hours JUST SCANNING #pages individually one at a fucking time and saving tjem and. dear god the picture editing on them all #even withiut additional digital coloring is at least 5 minutes per picture. then who knows how many hours formatting a combined book with #all art. and thats before ANY text written. which is why i havent even made an art book. like of just art #hell its why i havent even backed up my 9 sketchbooks of traditional art from the past decade #its so much work its like 2000 pages of art. im just gonna let my family ancestors find iy if i get luxky #and its not desyroyed by the elements (like all my older art was ToT)#tldr my point is: i love love love art and i love the momentary joy it brings ppl i share it with #but as far as like Big output i prefer writing. its easier #art is fine wjen its like im paid to make 1 poster 1 flier 1 card one book cover etc #but ive never been commissioned to do like 20 illustrations ( i would tho! sounds like more money)#so like. on my own time for free as far as high scale takes days of work? id prefer to not do more art

Manga haul from yesterday

#prince's talk tag #i promise this wont be an every week thing #i went back to the city yesterday to buy a beloved game from my childhood and decided to hit up the bookstores again #i said i wouldnt go overboard but mission failed lolol #i was happy to find the second volume of t/okyo m/ew m/ew o/mnibus bc i couldnt find it anywhere #and im really enjoying w/itch h/at a/telier in both art and story so i decided to collect it #i wasnt gonna get w/ot/akoi but 1) i found out the english version combines two volumes into one so its only 6 volumes long #and 2) the 6th volume cover was an exclusive at the bookstore i got it from (which was kinokuniya)#and comparing it to the regular cover i thought the exclusive was cuter so i decided why not #i also got more volumes of b/lue f/lag but the thing is i got those volumes from barnes and noble #and the thing about the bnn i went to is to prevent people stealing them they put security stickers in the book #but sometimes they put them over panels or worse a page of black ink #so taking off the sticker is easy but it does take some of the pigment off and it annoys me #like i get it but you're kinda ruining the book #the miku book is an artbook of Kei's art and i had to get it bc i love his miku artwork #seeing them in thr p/roject d/iva makes me happy #its 95% miku and 5% the rest of thr cryptonloids which makes sense bc the book IS called mikulife #but yea imma cool it with purchases now #im getting a book shelf tomorrow so i can finally put them away instead of having them on my dresser

I srsly want the book with that cover. Why am I like this. If I had waited on that book or at least looked on diff sites at the time I'd have gotten the one I wanted in the first place probably. Am I going to spend $7 to get a 2nd copy of this book? And what am I going to do with the other copy???

#also do i get myself the first printing uk edition of dragonflight bc its got such a pretty cover art too or do i wait and save up for a #rarer copy like one with all 3 og books in 1 volume beautifully bound in leather and gold foil design on the cover? i think it would have #whelan's art inside as interior illustration page(s)#yknow id really love to buy prints of some of my favorite book cover artwork too if that was a possibility #or like all the (good/interesting) pern book cover art as prints #theres this one that isnt the Best but it IS interesting by tony diterlizzi (however u spell his name) with a bug-eyed dragon design #which i am for some reason v fond of. i think its the colors and how alive the weird dragon looks andhow unique a take it is #he was told the dragons of pern are weird looking and have shorter front legs and compound eyes #and skin/hide not scales and a jorse or cowlike body with giraffe headknobs and went with it full throttle #but the dragon's body looks like a real - if weird/awkward - animal.#i love whelan's the most bc theyre the depictions i grew up w #but i like diterlizzi's too #and the purple cover on the uk variant with the half egg and the dragons flying above it in the sky is so fantastic too #theres a cover design with interesting dragon design but lessa is like. wearing almost nothing. on dragonback.#so id unfortunately Not want a print of it or that copy #hm

#lmao nothing makes me feel more dyslexia than doing field work #i cannot do math in my head #i cannot process instruction. i cannot communicate literally anything. my communication skills r held together with string lol #my language skills lol. im constantly stumbling over words and forgetting words i need #whats the word...? how do u say it...? must be some of my most used phrases. my brain just works on a delay lol #me trying to learn german: well i can vaguely remember the shape of this word but not the actual spelling and also i cant remember how to #pronounce it. its so funny. my brain cannot read sounds into existence. i read aloud in English like an elementary schooler #also if u say the word out loud to me i will instantly forget it. lmao the effort it takes to get info into my brain #i sent off my personal statement for edits btw. which is terrifying bc its like my heart is bleeding thru my ribs and i pressed a page to #my chest. that is my personal statement. overindulgent and rambling. so the cuts will probably be brutal but thats fine #im not so sensitive abt the editing so much as im sensitive abt how i structured it. like did i do it wrong? should it have been clinical?#that seems so boring to me. idk we'll see what he thinks. i still think theres no way i get the scholarship but whatever. he's putting the #effort into working with me so i must show some potential. but also i cant find anything on how to format the statment from the department #and im annoyed at the uk grading system bc technically i have a 2:1 in my undergrad but literally if i round up by 0.01 on the us system id #have a 1st. and like not to diss the uk uni system but the way they grade is bullshit and also the us system is like brutal so i feel like #my grade should count for more lmao. im just bitter and worried i wont get in. bc the project would b so so so perfect #ugh. whatever. one step at a time. now onto the next thing. do i write or draw...?#unrelated
