maybe people would be more willing to spend money on this website and tumblr wouldn't be in such financial trouble if @staff actually listened to what their userbase wanted instead of continuously rolling out unnecessary updates that only serve to clutter the dash with no way to change it back. if we wanted a website that looked like twitter, we would be on twitter. i get the push to try and make tumblr "easier" for new users, but how well is this site going to function when it's doing its hardest to alienate and drive away their long-term userbase?

I hate that people make me sound crazy after they disrespect me and I lash out accordingly why must I be pliant so that you feel good about yourself?

talking about the locked tomb to people who have not read the locked tomb is almost impossible. like i wanna get to the juicy stuff about how god and his two angels or whatever had a threesome with him to steal his jizz and make a baby that would unlock the box that contains his death, but it takes two books to get to that reveal, and I wouldnt even get to talk about my favourite asshole: lesbian jesus

thinking about dungeon meshi (as you do) and something that has been increasingly bothering me is how many people call Laios 'stupid' or similar. Often even as they are trying to pitch the manga to people.
And it's been bugging me because it's just. Absolutely not true? Laios is socially inept to a fault, that's like half the driving reason for the plot. But beside the obvious 'he knows a shit-ton about monsters and this is very helpful to their dungeon adventuring', he's also shown to be a good strategist, and pretty decent at magic once he actually puts his mind to it. He's a competent team leader who knows his teams strengths and weaknesses well despite being fairly bad at people. He can be silly, but to be fair so can most of his team. And he does make poor/stupid decisions (like eating raw parasite) mainly because of his hyperfixation sometimes. But he's far from stupid.
Idk man I am obviously annoyed because I think calling the heavily autistic coded guy 'stupid' is a bad look, but it annoys me doubly because the story makes it pretty obvious that he is not. That's a pretty essential part of the story actually!

[I.D. A crochet doll of an alien known as a Knight. The alien has a living helmet with its own separate eyes and spikes on its head, and the host "wearing" it is all white with much smaller eyes. The alien is wearing a long blue and teal cape like garment with two pockets on each side. It is also wearing a neck brace. /end I.D.]
My gift for a discord secret santa event for @styllwaters! I made a sketch of a Knight OC a while ago but I decided to bring her into the 3D realm. She's an Aikka polar with a Fejga mountain helmet. Since the weight is a bit much, she wears a neck brace during day to day life. I also hope to make a wheelchair for her as she doesnt have any back legs.
Most of this is my own design with the base body and head from a su lion design. Making patterns has never been so fun.
Bonus close up pics under the cut

a smaller part of my thoughts on the mw3 campaign that i think is important enough to need its own post:
(there are spoilers below)
i've seen many cod creators on here talking about the situation going on in the middle east right now, and a lot of posts condemning the ethnic cleansing and genocide happening in palestine. i think it's great, especially coming from a fandom based on games that are first and foremost military propaganda. what i don't think is great is that soap's death seems to be taking priority over the blatant terrorist storyline that happens with samara and the changing of the no russian mission.
a middle eastern woman - the second one to get a shocking, and brutal death (more brutal than soap's, might i add) - is taken hostage by a group and forcibly made to hijack a plane. she is forced to wear a bomb strapped to her chest and dragged to the back of the plane where more civilians are. when she tries to fight back we get this exchange:
hijacker: are you a terrorist?
samara: no!
hijacker: you look like one.
she is then handed a gun, shoved into a crowd, and we are forced to watch her struggle to get a phone against a crowd of people who think she is a terrorist before the plane blows up.
i see a lot of people in the fandom saying to reject canon as a way to cope, which i fully understand - canon is really really stupid sometimes. however, i'm also seeing a lot of people saying to pretend this campaign just doesn't exist, and i take a lot of issue with that.
this fandom, in particular, does not get to do that. you can be upset with soap's death, the thrown together storyline, the half-baked combat, whatever else you don't like about the game, but we do not get to ignore the purposeful mistreatment of a middle eastern character while also being vocal about palestine. we do not get to ignore that activision chose to change this mission from makarov shooting up an airport, to forcing a middle eastern character to blow up a plane while he escapes. we do not get to ignore that the cod games are military propaganda, and that just because we may enjoy playing or watching these games, that doesn't mean we shouldn't be looking at these games, their storylines, and their characters critically.
i need people to understand that it is an immense privilege to be able to turn them off and "ignore the campaign" while casually reblogging the occasional post about palestine. you are allowed to enjoy these games, and you are allowed to be angry and hurt over soap's death. these games are allowed to be a form of escapism for you, but i am begging you all to think more critically about the choices activision is making here, and understand that escapism doesn't mean you can disregard and ignore those choices.
and i think a lot of people, those who post about palestine in particular, should think about why this fandom is placing more importance on a white character's death than the blatant and egregious islamophobia and military propaganda.

It has been one of the hardest weeks I've ever had to experience in a long time. I had to say goodbye to my dog of fourteen years suddenly - it was especially draining as I had been the only one there with him until, luckily, my brother & SIL was able to be with him and I at the end.
I figured this update was necessary as I'm a little off kilter and will be for the next bit.

what's your favorite greek mythical creature
Interesting question! I am going to say the Sirens.
The Sirens in the Odyssey are fascinating in that what they promise Odysseus is not sex but a story. They offer to tell him the story of the Trojan War. My interpretation of that has always been that they are offering to tell him a story where it all makes sense - a story where he was the protagonist, where the war had a purpose beyond being a senseless meat-grinder for the gods. Quite a thing to offer a veteran!
Purely based on description though would maybe be Scylla. What is your anatomy my love.
What's your favorite?

UPDATED Darius Week 2023 - Prompt List
(For the curious - I miscounted the days and messed up the list at first.)
Questions are suggestions - feel free to go wild with these!!)
October 22: Fashion/style
How did Darius get into fashion? What are some alternative outfit ideas you have? What did his sewing lesson with Hunter look like? Etc., etc.
October 23: Relationships
Doesn't have to be romantic or a big, popular ship! Do you have a character you wish Darius had interacted with? Do you have a rarepair that needs more love? Do you just want to draw him kissing Alador?
October 24: School Days (suggested by @possibly-a-table-or-just-gay)
What was his life at school like? How did he meet Alador and Odalia? What was his friendship with Raine like? What clubs was he in?
October 25: Family
Do you have ideas for what Darius's birth family is like? What's Hunter's life with him?
October 26: Mentor
Everyone has a different idea for what his mentor was like and how they met. What's your take on it? Alternatively, what about Darius as a mentor?
October 27: Alternate Universe
What other magic could he use? What if he adopted Hunter early?
October 28: Magic/Abominations
I don't have a pithy question for this one. Everyone knows his magic is just cool. How do you think he became a shapeshifter? Why do you think he became a shapeshifter?
October 29: Rebellion
Darius's path to being a rebel is somewhat obscure in canon. How do you think that went down? What brought him to that point?
October 30: Free draw/catch-up
Anything you want, as long as it's got Darius!
October 31st: Free draw/catch-up
Like I said, questions are just suggestions to get your creative juices flowing. If you have a completely different take on the prompts, that works too!
How to be featured on this blog: tag your posts with Darius as #darius week 2023, and/or @ this blog at @dariusowlhouseweek.
Good luck! Have fun!
