Original Team Venture Items from Now Museum Now You Don't (as collected in the Go Team Venture book)
I only drew that Talkin' Rusty doll to give Li'l Billy something to play with but now I guess I gotta draw all the mid-'70s merchandise The Rusty Venture Show generated so adult Billy can buy it off eBay. I'm gonna have to draw so much shit...
↓ Come Be Obsessive-Compulsive with Me Below the Cut ↓
Where does Billy keep all the vintage The Rusty Venture Show merchandise he wins on eBay? It's not on display anywhere in the trailer, unless it's in the back room that was never shown in an episode. Maybe it's just stuffed into all the built-in cabinets all over the walls? Like squirrel hiding away nuts and he forgets where he stashed them.
I'll have to go in and take screen caps of the episodes that show merchandise to see what already exists.
↑ Action Man dune buggy, Talkin' Jonas doll, Pez, jam jar glasses, board game, bobble heads, Jonas Venture air rifle and... bubble bath bottles, maybe?
(I just noticed there's no Colonel Gentleman products. Hmmmm.)
This is all Original Team Venture merch, not The Rusty Venture Show stuff. No Rusty toys at all in this episode. Those would be distinct and different fandoms. Team Venture seems to be a decade before the cartoon... the references are solidly '60s not '70s.
↑ The same stuff as above, in the episode's background, plus the X-1 plane and X-2 yacht models and some kinda aircraft carrier (?) on a plinth to the left.
I do love that Otto Aquarius Ben Cooper box costume. (Now I'm definitely making a shitty plastic-y Halloween costume for Li'l Billy— a mask that won't fit on his face with awkward eye holes and a plastic drape that says RUSTY VENTURE on it.)
Billy collects The Rusty Venture Show cartoon exclusively which had members of Team Venture as characters (but not as the focus). But mind-reading revealed he subconsciously desired that merchandise. Then stole some of this stuff when Spider Skull Island was going to blow up, so does he collect the older pre-cartoon merchandise or was it a crime of opportunity?
↑pillow, framed headshot, magazine, barrel bank, TV guide, statuette, posters, giant doll
Dermott's sister-mother Nikki's room. I need to rewatch this scene from Everybody Comes to Hank's and take better screengrabs. I see her stuff as more fan club "exclusives" made for the collector's market rather than vintage toys. On the coffee table is a Rusty-in-a-Barrel coin bank and a standing Rusty Venture statuette/maquette— both bought at whatever in-universe stands in for the Disney Store/WB Studio Store— Billy would definitely own those, too.
❓→The giant plush Rusty doll at bottom right… do you think she made that or is it a commercial product? Seems like a fan-made thing.
↑ I already drew the Rusty Venture pajamas.
Billy wears 40+ year old pajamas. That can't be comfortable. He got them as deadstock— never worn vintage PJs— so that's why they still look new. He bought a whole pallet of them— he has multiples.
↑... plus the merchandise they made for The Rusty Venture Show for real, too (lunchbox, MEGOs and shirt) I hate how the "Rusty" doesn't match the "Venture," pulled from the Venture Bros title. Mixed case vs. All Caps. It's killing me.
✔️ I gotta make myself a "to draw" list of all the merchandise in Billy's collection.

Greetings bugs and worms!
This comic is a little different than what I usually do but I worked real hard on it—Maybe I'll make more infographic stuff in the future this ended up being fun. Hope you learned something new :)
If you are still curious and want to learn more about OCD, you can visit the International OCD Foundation's website. I also recommend this amazing TED ED video "Starving The Monster", which was my first introduction to the disorder and this video by John Green about his own experience with OCD.
The IOCDF's website can also help you find support groups, therapy, and has lots of online guides and resources as well if you or a loved one is struggling with the disorder. It is very comprehensive!
Reblog to teach your followers about OCD
(But also not reblogging doesn't make you evil, silly goose)

OCD symptom i struggle with but don't see talked about a lot: inability to trust your own memory and/or perception.
as an example: i put my headphones in my bag. i say im sure they're in my bag, but what if i imagined putting them in my bag? i have to check, so i stick my hand inside and grab them. but then i have to check *again* because what if i just so happened to have another object shaped and sized exactly like my headphones that i just forgot about? so i have to pull them out of my bag and look directly at them to fully confirm they were in my bag
this is a fairly benign example but this also happens with other worse scenarios for me and it's. not fun

Look, this is what moral OCD is like for me:
I walk past a piece of paper. I don’t pick it up because I had a long day at work and it’s very cold outside. This then becomes my internal monologue:
I didn’t pick up that piece of paper, I should have. Don’t I care about the environment? It’s not my trash, I shouldn’t have to pick it up. But also that’s how these things happen right? We place the blame on others as our environment degrades. It was just a piece of paper, it’s not like it can do that much damage. But also how do I know: I’m not an environmental expert. Maybe stray paper scraps are killing the frogs. You’re literally killing the frogs. You should look up how many frogs die a year so you know how shitty you are-No stop it.
I care about the environment, and I recycle and I joined green activism movements but is that enough? I could be doing more. I should be doing more. I should donate my entire check to charity. But isn’t it self serving to think that my one check could help that much? Do I really think I’m that important, how self entitled and-no stop it, reset! You are obsessing and if you fall for it, you will not eat dinner. Let it go.
Okay it’s just a piece of paper. It’s okay you skipped it this once: it could have had something dangerous on it. Yeah that makes sense. But also, that means I’m putting my own safety over trying to help the environment, which is very selfish of me. I’m just one shitty person: god how could I be so self absorbed. I should have picked up the piece of paper. I’m so selfish, and shitty and-no, no, stop it! This is not helpful. It’s fine.
It’s been a long day and I’m cold, that’s not a crime- no that’s being selfish again, you’re making excuses. You’re just a lazy piece of shit who doesn’t care about others, and selfish and God the fact you’re thinking this much about one piece of paper shows how selfish you are, you care more about if you’re a good person than anything else, you’re a piece of shit, you’re a piece of shit, YOU’RE A PIECE OF SHIT.
I get home and open up Tumblr. The first post I see says “if you don’t reblog this post about the environment you’re as complicit as an oil billionaire.” I close my computer and resign myself to looking up the state frog populations until I go to bed.
I don’t eat dinner.
The amount of frogs that die a year is somewhere from 200 million to over 1 billion.
#moral ocd#ocd#scrupulosity#Iz rambles#this is okay to reblog I think people really don’t get it#mental illness#the issue with the social media post is not that it exists or that OP even feels about this issue: the issue is it validates my ocd#I don’t obsess about frogs but that is a bummer stat I do rather like them#obsessive compulsive disorder

to my psychotic/paranoid/OCD/other friends - you might start seeing posts in the next few days about how the rapture supposedly happened or is going to happen very soon. a group of evangelical “rapture watchers” think the rapture happened 9/22/23 for a handful of reasons, such as the dates lining up in a way that’s somehow significant.
i promise the rapture didn’t happen. i don’t personally believe in the rapture and i have nothing against those who do, but it for sure didn’t already happen. if it did everyone would know. there would be tons of footage. anyone who tries to claim it did happen or that they know the date is either lying or misguided.

In the same vein as "I've been taking my medication for long enough that I haven't experienced any symptoms in a while, I must not need to take it anymore! (Spoiler alert: the meds are why you haven't had symptoms)" I present to you a similarly clownish thought process- "I haven't experienced that trigger in a long time, maybe I was just exaggerating how bad it was and it'll be fine to engage with this! (Spoiler alert: take a fucking guess babes)"
#on a definitely unrelated note the contamination obsessive thoughts are in fact still there and still upsetting#turns out when you take care to avoid things that trigger and upset you...#those things still trigger and upset you even if youve avoided them for a while#😱🤯#ptsd#cptsd#trauma#recovery#disabled#autistic adult#actually autistic#<- idk if thats a good tag or not it just came up suggested when i typed autism so#ocd#<- not dxed and not even sure if i feel comfy self dxing w ocd but i definitely have upsetting obsessive + compulsive tendencies + thoughts#that i struggle with a lot so#medication#trauma recovery#triggers#arfid#disability#neurodivergent#neurodiversity#audhd

Being on the internet with OCD is like “I want to post a picture of my outfit because I look bomb but what if my full address and National Insurance number is written in the reflection of this random public bathroom mirror and I didn’t notice”

consider: intrusive thoughts described like shitty Buzzfeed articles
“Top 10 Reasons Why You’re Actually a Pedophile”
“People Are Sharing the Best Slurs to Scream at the Top of Your Lungs and Honestly I Am So Here For It”
“Tell Me Your Favorite Color and I’ll Tell You You Can Jump In Front of A Moving Train Right Now”
“You’ve Heard of [Normal Activity], But Have You Heard of All the Horrible Ways You Can Die While Doing It???!!”
“This Quiz Will RevealWhich Hand You Could Hypothetically Stick in a Blender!”

Just a reminder that OCD is not a homogenous experience
Not everyone with OCD has contamination OCD
Not everyone with OCD washes their hands obsessively
Not everyone with OCD has observable compulsions
Not everyone with OCD feels the need to be neat and have symmetry
Not everyone with OCD worries about germs
Not everyone with OCD feels able to talk about their rituals, compulsions or intrusive thoughts

I’m having a particularly bad episode of OCD today and wanted to remind everyone as well as myself.
Your intrusive thoughts and urges do not reflect who you are as a person.
Your intrusive thoughts and urges do not make you sick or evil.
Your intrusive thoughts and urges do not mean you are a despicable human being.
They do not mean any of the above, or any of the other lies your brain might conjure. (You’re twisted. You’re perverted. You deserve death. You deserve to never be happy. To always be alone. To always feel guilty. And the list goes on).
What your intrusive thoughts and urges do mean is that you’re struggling, and it’s hard, and sometimes you want to give up and disappear forever.
But your intrusive thoughts and urges do not define you. They do not have control over you, they do not have charge of your brain. They are not going to drag you under for the rest of your life, even if it feels like that right now. You will overcome this, and you will pound those stupid thoughts into the earth, no matter how long it takes.
You are not your intrusive thoughts.
Your intrusive thoughts are not you.

I will never understand the fascination that some adults have with pushing the boundaries of shy children.
When children have social anxiety, trying to force them to talk to you isn't helping. Scaring them won't make them "less shy". Most likely, they just aren't comfortable enough around you to behave any differently- and that's okay.
Those people that push boundaries then wonder why the child is still "shy" around them and fail to consider that maybe it's because they know that every time you see them that you will push their boundaries.
I dealt with this so much as a kid with undiagnosed autism and it's so sickening to see people do the same to other children.
