Fellas, it finally happened, my art block has loosened up a little and given way to THIS GUY

(Character Levi from the interactive fiction game Signalhill, both belong to @signalhill-if!)

i’ve been seeing some talk about how “this propaganda is so bad” and “they must think everyone’s too stupid to think” and stuff like that, and i just wanna say be careful not too internalize these thoughts so much.

yes, sometimes propaganda is easy to spot. there are things you see and immediately go “what the fuck, who’d believe that” and that’s GOOD. that means you’re noticing tactics, you’re questioning things, you’re practicing critical thinking.

but not all propaganda is so easy to spot. sometimes propaganda really is good, by which i mean skillfully done. convincing, even when you’ve practiced spotting propaganda. and that can be really dangerous!!

so, really what i’m saying is don’t get passive about propaganda. remember that, very often, it isn’t obvious. you need to do some digging, some thinking, and that thinking is WORTH IT. so worth it! you’re gonna find things you didn’t notice at first, and now you can point those things out. you can start dialogue about them.

keep pointing out the propaganda you do see. talk about it. be upset about it. recognize that you can be misled and that there’s no shame in correcting yourself. please keep thinking, analyzing, questioning, discussing, etc etc

remember that phrase “you are not immune to propaganda”? it will always, always ring true.

anyone remember that pyro is a robot headcanon? yeah um erm i also remembered that and also sorta maybe mightve gotten carried away a little bit.. tee hee..

Dick stans on this site are soooo chill and nice, and idk how they do it. y’all are better than me because whyyyyyy is half the fandom claiming that dick tried to lock tim in arkham??? 😭 the treatment dick gets is wild lmao, and i understand know why ppl say he has eldest daughter syndrome bc somehow every single problem in the batfam gets traced back to being his fault. tim and damian beef? obviously that’s the grieving 25 year old whose just been pushed into a role he never wanted’s fault. jason and bruce drama? clearly dick had no right to go live his own life and explore young adulthood after his own issues with bruce, he should’ve come back to play therapist 🙄 Cass being left out? Well based on one panel of dick reading cinderella to her, he should’ve been there more for her! Like lmfao i know he’s the heart of the family, but give this man a breakkkk

For someone who vibrates if he thinks about the guy for too long, I don't draw ctommy nearly as much as I should

Vincent Price being goofing off behind the scenes of The Raven (1962)

Heyoo. Not dead yet :P

Been in a constant “I’m too demotivated to draw because I hate the direction my art style’s going, but because I haven’t drawn in a while, my art’s gotten worse, so I’m even more demotivated”-rinse-repeat loop as of late, and it got to the point that I essentially had to refind my artstyle again, eheh. But, like, hopefully better? Somewhat? Haha.

Anyway, I’m quite chuffed with these two at the moment—especially Orihime; she looks very cute if I do say so myself ^^—so lemme post something before the year’s over, yeah?

Look at my self indulgent dishelved sewer rat-looking fursona for Jinx boy (they look better on most days but y'know)

Cutting this off now cuz I'm fairly sure I'll be adding more to this in a reblog later

They/them for this creation of mine for epik and deep lore purposes that I will not write out rn because if I commit to the bit it would end up being 4am with me having to go to school by 6

All the context you get for now is that since the reference image is from the last episode, my guy(gn) here is after one severe beating from Knux(Ekko)(<-reason why the tails look so beaten and you can't see it but one is missing, see; angst reasons) an arm length explosion from their own bomb(realized way too late that the bomb actually blew up on Jinx's right hand side, way too late as in, half of coloring finished already. well in my AU it happened on Nine's left hand side!!!) and a bunch of Dark Gaia juices(Shimmer)(<-will think about the technicalities of thisnkater) injected into them as an effort to keep them from dying

Every once in a while, I think about how MC and Rime’s dynamic is the funniest and saddest thing ever.

Because…MC stole his life. Then his weapon. Then his job. Then his boyfriend. And then, depending how you play it, MC also steals his heart.

Missing blaseball o'clock have a garages cover <3

Ah Caboose is so silly+dumb XP

I suck at lighting, still. Humanized the duck and rabbit in specifically The Looney tunes show. ( I feel like they have different styles and attires for each different piece of media, yk)

Instead of leaving a comment on a fic like a decent human being, I decided that it was a good idea to set myself up for an art project that is 50% landscape and fabric and colours I rarely-if-ever get to use oops X"D

On an unrelated note, did you know that @brightmouth 's Lessons in Idle Ecstasies is fucking great?? (All her writing is, really, I just have so much reading I need to catch up on, I've been too busy trying to figure out how to paint rocks and mountains and things I thought I knew how to paint ^^; )

here are all of my stinky playlists, which are constantly changing and shifting because i’m sooo indecisive

What was your first introduction to Jason Todd? Mine was through the video game Arkham Knight ( aka the best game ever made)

Fanfiction!

I was looking for specific tropes I think (I don’t remember which ones tho) and most of the fandoms showing up for it were either Batman or something Batman adjacent. I’m pretty flexible with fandoms and with any kind of relationships as long as the premise sounds interesting so I kinda just clicked one that looked good and it happened to be Jason Todd centric.

After that I started to read up on his character a bit, binged quite a number of fics, and, yup, that’s pretty much it. I was sold within the first ten minutes. Absolute fave hands down. 💚✨
