I would love to do this challenge again in the future! Thanks once again to everyone who participated!! Expect a lot of witches soon! I’ve been procrastinating on that, and I know you all must craving some new stuff.

Don't you have anything better to do?

Just let them go.

(Yes its based off that pic from Veil)

i can fully understand the gripes with certain misogynistic tropes/writing issues that are present in the execution of some of cersei’s writing, but i will never understand the “she should have a redemption arc” or “she should be more likeable/less morally dark” perspective. that is not what her character is or has to be to make it great. wanting more female anti-heroes or “redemption arcs” with moral greyness and complexity of the level that asoiaf gives to primarily male characters is entirely understandable, but do some of you people even like cersei as a character, like at its core? like this is not about criticising the execution of certain things when it comes to this character, this is about taking issue with her as a villain fundamentally, which i just do not agree with at all

Proposed Pokédex entry for Lotad:

This Pokémon is known for creating tool-assisted gameplay demonstrations with low optimization.

New video! This is a CAS one, with all the links for my sim (be sure to check the description!). I will be playing through the Not So Human Challenge with Leia, which I am so excited about!

xeo wasn't meant to land on earth.

once a simple abduction technician, xeo's days were spent analyzing human candidates but, in a twist of fate that involved hot coffee, a wet floor, and an overly-eager sixam flytrap, xeo found himself stumbling into a loaded expedition pod, accidentally triggering the eject sequence, and hurdling (mostly screaming) towards earth. now, with no money and no prospects, xeo has two options: find his way back to sixam, or join the species he's spent years observing millions of miles away....

i made this a few months ago for a discord and i figured i might as well share it here too

I think a big problem in our culture is equating intent and effect, and this works both when predicting the effect and when determining the cause. It is important to remember that just as having good intentions does not excuse the harm one causes, so does someone having caused harm not always mean they intended to cause harm all along.

We are able to know our own thoughts, so when we cause harm we may easily downplay it because "that's not what I intended", as if that would make the harm go away. And when we judge others who cause harm, we similarly try to work backwards from the assumption that harm requires intent - and since we see the harm but not the intent, we assign intent somewhere where it may not even exist.

None of this is to excuse people who cause harm, but maybe to clarify that what we call evil is not some nefarious satanic mindset of ill intent, but rather a stubborn unwillingness to critically examine whether you might be causing harm even if you don't actively intend to, and even whether or not you truly care.

And the more power you have, the easier it is to distance yourself from the harm you cause and keep causing it.

We are well into Mermay already and I'll be damned if I don't make mermaids out of my current hyperfixation, so have Beetlejuice and Lydia. He is based on a Pajama Shark and she is based on a Lionfish. Bonus sketch : When they first meet Lydia does NOT trust this magical fishman.

The Deadline is today!

The deadline for the Create-a-human challenge is today!! So, if you still haven’t finished your human magi yet, do tell me and I can extend the deadline for you!

Name:Matsuri Amai

Wish:"For my web series to be on the big screens"

Weapon:Directer horn

Ability:Motivated (Can hype up her or others power)

Witch:Kuroba

Despair:The network didn't care about her nor respect her ideas so Matsuri was trying to improve her show to get more ratings and canceled her show (That meant she was too busy to witch hunt)

She became a witch when felt betrayed that network for reeling her in with false promises and felt her improves were for nothing.

Stay tuned for some fucking EPIC AI art me and the homies are workin on these swirls are gumna blow your tits clean off

had an in depth conversation about our experiences of race and gender with one of my friend's housemates the other day while I was visiting and I'm still thinking about it. they kind of disagreed with how I see myself (as a white hispanic) for at least two reasons. the first one I would have pushed back on using the concept of optional ethnicities but we ran out of time, and the second had to do with how others see me, which is actually the same reason I identify primarily as white. like yes under gross older ideas about race I would not be considered white and there are many people today who would put me in some other category but most of the people I interact with assume I am white and treat me accordingly. it just doesn't feel like I can disclaim something that benefits me if it means claiming something else I have no connection to. not that there is no connection, but I am forever conscious of the ways in which my family has become disconnected from aspects of our ancestry, even if it was forced assimilation/attempted cultural eradication within living memory--like nuns literally beating my grandfather until he learned to speak english. I am the first generation on my mom's side to not speak spanish at all and beyond a personal loss it feels like maybe the forced assimilation really was effective and how do you undo that. that's just one example but it's just really complicated and I don't want to be seen as appropriative but also this is far from the first time someone/some institution has decided I am a person of color and it's just confusing and idk what to do in those situations.
