Persitently Pontificating

They/them | occasional art. Main fandom is Sanders Sides, as well as Animal Crossing and House in the Cerulean Sea

IVE BEEN HERE LONG ENOUGH MAY AS WELL FINALLY MAKE AN INTRO

You can call me Fern, and I use they/them pronouns.

I’m gay for women (trixic is the technical word but WHO CARES), aromantic (greyromantic specifically), asexual, and non binary.

I have ARFID (avoidant restrictive food intake disorder), meaning food is often rather triggering for me. In most situations it’s ok!! But just be aware. I won’t kill you if you mess up I promise :D

My interests change with the seasons, but I’m always into Sanders Sides, music (especially classical (especially music HISTORY)), Spiritfarer, Portal, Project Hail Mary, Hades, crochet, linguistic stuff, pottery, Legend of Zelda, horror (especially stuff like DDLC), lotsa other video games, lotsa books, ect.

On this blog it’s mainly reblogs and random thoughts and art when the hyperfixation is strong enough.

Please talk to me I like having friends. I will hug you if you send me an ask. Please. :3

If you know me in real life for the love of god don’t tell me or anyone else I wish to keep my dignity. Also I may have to kill you.

How it feels to imagine a female character's voice as deep when you read the source and then watch an adaptation that gives her some Elmo ass voice

Still one of the best animations I've ever done. Took just under a week and was equal parts fun and challenging. So here are some process passes! The full version had too many colors so I had to do some compression T0T

As always, no ai.

asked one of my coworkers how she's doing today and she goes "could be better, could be worse," and another coworker nearby who was eavesdropping chimes in with "could be a lil bit o' alligator curse!" i have no idea what he meant by that but i do know that it has been immediately added to the lexicon.

Racism in fandom spaces is actually insanely bad and if you ever try to downplay or avoid conversations about it because "fandom is supposed to be fun" then I'm not sorry to say this: You're adding on to the problem.

im kind of obsessed with this graphic.

Every time someone tells me they hate Shakespeare (which is frequently, bc people who hate Shakespeare r usually very proud of it and they need to tell me immediately when they learn that I'm a Shakespeare actor) I enact a sort of self contained stoic ritual where I remind myself that I do not need to be defending the most read and lauded and hegemonic English writer of all time even though I KNOW that they've only half-read Romeo and Juliet when they were 14 in a lame English class and formed a grudge and never changed their opinion. I have that knowledge and I allow it to wash over me and leave me undisturbed

Every time someone tells me they hate math (which is frequently, bc people who hate math r usually very proud of it and they need to tell me immediately when they learn that I'm a mathematician) I enact a sort of self contained stoic ritual where I remind myself that I do not need to be defending the most pure and applicable and eternal field of all time even though I KNOW that they've only half-learnt algebra when they were 14 in a lame math class and formed a grudge and never changed their opinion. I have that knowledge and I allow it to wash over me and leave me undisturbed

Hey can I buy the two of you a cup of coffee and we can sit and talk for an hour or something

I would just love to be involved here. Whatever you two have going on. I'll watch, or hold the flashlight, or whatever

"he would not fucking say that" but about injuries. he would not fucking recover that quickly. those scars would not fucking heal like that. he would not be fucking able bodied after that. he would not be fully lucid after that.

“Do dishes” and “take out trash” both require the use of a spell slot, vs “use phone” is a cantrip, and brother, I am a level one wizard

one of my favourite human songs-and-dances is when someone notices someone else is lying and, for no particular reason besides love of the game, helps them get away with the lie without ever explicitly acknowledging they noticed. nightmare social animals.

Stratt, standing in front of a room of Important People TM: What we are about to watch for the first time is recordings from the Project Hail Mary. These videos may very well save humanity. Press play.

Grace, on recording: I HAVE ABSOLUTELY NO CLUE WHAT I’M DOING.

Voice from back of room: welp, we’re fucked, it was nice having life on Eath while it lasted.

Stratt: Please remain silent. I assure you he has this under control. He’s got this.

Grace, on recording: THE WAY IN WHICH I DON’T GOT THIS.

I have so much respect for the wee girls who do cartwheels for no reason regardless of context. like it's just their default idle animation. nothing else is happening might as well be upside down for a moment. iconic tbh
