do you think we're together in another universe?

I don't care, I just want you in this one.

This is kind of petty but is anyone else kinda mad how the finale treated Bentley?

MINOR SPOILERS TO THE GO S3 FINALE!!

In season 1 the Bentley is mainly just transport, but it's clear that Crowley loves that car, it's kinda his baby (this might be a headcannon but stick with me). You can even find a little bit of will when he tells the car not to burn, and the car does! In fact, it held on without him as long as it could, and once Crowley forgot to hold it! You could also connect it to being similar to his plants which he put fear in. It's actively stated I think in the book, or at least the show, where it is established, that the Bentley is in fact a demonic entity. And don't think I forgot about the whole radio situation bit. Where every song played turns into Queen (except if it's for Azi because he's ✨️ Special ✨️) while you could argue, that he's connected to the radio station, it's obviously not. I'm pretty sure it's a CD or Playlist situation, so the songs are on random Even if they are usually very fitting for the situation, but the nail in the coffin is the car that ONLY PLAYS QUEEN btw decided to kill our hearts by playing "Nightingale sang in Barkley square" right after the divorce

But season 2 is where the Bentley thrives. It is shown multiple times expressing free will. That car completely changes itself for Aziraphale, to cater to his every need. Changing its core function like the sound of the horn or deliberately slows down for him. Even against Crowley's wishes. HECK, Crowley is connected enough to this car that he can FEEL what's happening to it. Aziraphale even has to tell the car to move back to where he parked because it was trying to come closer. After Crowley plays up he missed the Car, more than Aziraphale which I think was him being petty, but he still obviously cares! Even if it isn't fully a person it still is not a normal car by any means.

Season 3, now I know about the limited run time and all that, but they treated the Bentley so badly during it. First, just the fact that Crowley lost her so easily, even with the bad circumstances. He did try his best to win it back. But I think he was doing it for routine or to punish himself. The only reason they got her back at all was that they needed transportation. If you rewatch the movie you will see it didn't do a single thing that shows it's not a regular car. No extra moving, no door movement, barely any conventional music timing, however, I am not counting the rocket, because that was all Crowley, didn't really need the Bentley much. All those years it sat there content to be a normal car, with a new owner and sitting pretty in the room, while its owner was getting beaten up right next to it. In fact, the whole finale, the only time she was acknowledged was when Aziraphale said "our Bentley". No it's "good to be back" or "good girl, I missed you" It was only used for convenience. While I do forgive them for essentially dropping her off in space to chase down Michael, which was obviously more important. Tragically, she was also one of the few characters who wasn't reset and brought back.

I think that's the problem with the finale as a whole. It basically takes all these characters we've seen and loved and kind of ignores their existence. Besides slight cameos and mentions. There there, but not really THERE. Kinda like Jesus, the big important person who was revived, just to fade with the rest of the ensemble. But this isn't about him. Rip Bentley you will be missed 🙏

Sorry for the yapping apparently I had alot to say on the topic 😅

"Tutorial" on how to "draw" a blind OC.

My kofi

Boring tired disclaimer: Keep in mind that this is an introductory "drawing" "tutorial" and has some generalizations in it, so not every “X is Z” statement will be true for Actual People. Which happens to be true for everything in general. Links below so that you can research and do a nuance. Ones that were directly mentioned are bolded.

Writing a blind character 101 What to avoid etc Video on types of white canes Video on types of cane tips Some more explanation on white canes + tips + other stuff Guide animals Video on working with a guide dog ↑ if you're doing a non-dog non-horse animal please still perceive those two links. A guide animal is not a GPS that tells you "left" or "right" (in fact, you're the one telling it which direction you want to go). So before giving them something weird check if it actually makes sense. You can make a fantasy animal that still makes sense I promise 🦮👍 But why are Magical White Eyes a problem Same as above Going blind from an accident Video on conformers World's most basic "what do you call someone with albinism" The blindfold thing. No people don't wear these. This mostly stupid trope of covering a blind character's eyes because lord forbid someone sees a disabled body part This just stupid trope of giving a blind character some bs superpower to "see" The echolocation thing that every other blind oc does for some reason Just give them a cane good lord if you want a character that can see perfectly then maybe don't make them blind Bonus: if your character has a bunch of scars or whatever else then congrats! You made a character with a facial difference. Which is also something you should research.

[aztecspurthroatgrasshopper]

reblogging again to say other things to consider include how not every character with a visual impairment is blind (which is mentioned in a few posts linked below the cut), and how some visual impairments may cause "temporary blindness", better referred to as transient visual loss or TVL

[forgetful-nerd]

If post-apocalyptic TMNT specials have taught this fandom anything, it’s that 2003 Leo was 100% right when he said that if one of them falls, then they all fall.

However, the turtles seem to fall faster when Donnie is the first to go.

What’s Happening with TMNT?

On the implications of the cancellation of Tales of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (TOTTMNT), the difficulties in reviving Rise of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (ROTTMNT), and the uncertain future of the franchise.

TMNT is a franchise that burst onto the market without asking for permission: a self-published comic blending absurd and outrageous ideas, many of which were trendy at the time. No one expected it to become a cultural phenomenon.

Those familiar with the history of the Ninja Turtles know that, despite its undeniable successes, the franchise has also faced moments of uncertainty, when its survival was in doubt. And yet, it has endured. It has given us distinct and interesting versions, each contributing something unique to the turtles’ universe.

When Nickelodeon took the reins, there were doubts, but they managed to create TMNT 2012, a series that, while not perfect, received highly positive reviews. Four seasons concluded the main storyline coherently, accompanied by a fifth with complementary stories. Overall, its ending was satisfying and harmonious.

Then came Rise of the TMNT in 2018. This version broke conventions and, at first, many fans rejected it. Today, it seems evident that it was ahead of its time. However, its visibility and success were limited, partly due to insufficient promotion and unfavorable airing schedules. Some point to low toy sales as the main reason for its cancellation, which came in the second season and was cut short compared to the original plan. A movie, thanks to Netflix in 2022, attempted to give the story closure, but it only made clear that there was still much left to explore. The ROTTMMT fandom remains active, calling for a third season; officially, the series is “on pause,” not canceled, and hope remains alive.

In 2023, Mutant Mayhem arrived, a new cinematic version considered a success. Its sequel, originally scheduled for 2026, was postponed to 2027. To maintain interest, TOTTMNT was launched, a series that, because it depends on the movie, is difficult to compare with others and can be seen as a supplement. Three or four seasons were planned, but it was recently confirmed that the second, set to premiere at the end of 2025, will be the last, leaving a gap until 2027.

Why was TOTTMNT canceled? Basically, for profitability: only the most lucrative series are prioritized. That TOTTMNT ended in its second season, as ROTTMMT did, reveals a troubling pattern: the franchise is treated as just another product, without long-term vision or consistent support. This reflects TMNT’s instability and puts its future at risk, despite the active fandom and committed creators.

Other projects, such as the adult-oriented movie based on The Last Ronin comic, are also uncertain. What will happen after the release of Mutant Mayhem 2? Meanwhile, the ROTTMMT fandom continues demanding a third season, though it seems unlikely that the executives will listen.

Today, we live in a system where artistic value is almost exclusively measured in money and popularity. Original stories are lost if they are not profitable enough. And this happens with all art. The sad part is that TMNT has proven that it works… yet apparently, not enough for Nickelodeon and Paramount.

TMNT has identity, strength, and potential to stand on its own. It may sound idealistic, but the franchise deserves to become independent and have its own studio, even if smaller.

In short: it is no longer just about saving a single series. It is about saving TMNT as a whole. And while it hurts to see how it has been handled the last years, it is also fascinating to imagine everything it could become if given the chance it truly deserves.

This is a short essay I wrote quickly because I needed it, so it may contain some inaccuracies or missing information.

[truths33k3r4]

@turtlevariabilis , you explained this whole situation of TOTTMNT so well. I fully agree with you that the poor franchise creators are being bullied and dragged down by the selfish, greedy higher ups only looking for a cash grab. It is positively sad and disgusting what's happening to these diligent, creative, inspired artists and writers who just want to tell their stories.

This is why I love the TMNT fandom so very much. Because for all of us-- in every way possible-- we couldn't care less if we were given money to tell our stories based on TMNT. I can barely count just how many au's, fanfics, and fan comics have been made just because of the global IMPACT that the franchise has left. Talented artists and writers like these people, who have gone above and beyond making fanart, and actually making THEIR OWN VERSIONS of the classic tale and characters!

There are so many others, but these are just SOME of the incredible works of art that the fans have made, just because of how positively they were inspired by the stories of the franchise.

This is why TMNT will never die. This is why the love of the series will never fade. Because the fans are like the flickering ninpo inside of it all, driving more and more people and generations to make up for the slack happening in the higher up offices of the franchise.

WE are not driven by greed, but by creative passion and inspiration. Just like the two people who began the franchise were. Peter Laird and Kevin Eastman began as two friends with a silly dream. It was never about money. They were simply two friends who drew a turtle on a napkin and laughed about it. <3

And unlike the current creators of the franchise who are tied down and dragged by a corporate ball and chain, WE PUSH FORWARD, creating, encouraging, and inspiring others like us.

TMNT will never fade. Because the passionate fire of the fans will never be smothered.

i'd like to add that the shadow color isnt necessarily dictated entirely by the primary light source, but the bounce light! so for the example of a sunny environment, the reason the shadows are blue are because of the light from the blue sky reflects across the environment; but, if the character were to be under tree cover, the bounce light would be coming from the leaves and thus the shadow would look greener.

[danidarkarts]

Yee yee!!! You got it right on the nose!

Bounce light is something I didn't cover but I adore it!

Gotta work on my bounce light 💪

Good Omens Salt Shakers, I made based on the Eden scene with Aziraphale as Salt and Crowley as Pepper.

🍎 Funfact, sadly, only Aziraphale's shaker is the only functioning one

“Ghost of the Future,” he exclaimed, “I fear you more than any spectre I have seen. But as I know your purpose is to do me good, and as I hope to live to be another man from what I was, I am prepared to bear you company, and do it with a thankful heart. Will you not speak to me?” ~ A Christmas Carol

Happy Belated Christmas! This idea hasn't left my head all week, so I'm excited to finally finish this piece! I've read a similar fic (I can't seem to find one) before I realized how perfect 2003 Don would be for the Ghost of the Future with his existing trauma and how many possibilities for angst this allows (this idea would NOT leave me alone lol).

This Story/Au has the same TMNT 2003 timeline but with Raph having his own Christmas Carol adventure. He sees the same 3 main spirits from The Christmas Carol who have taken the faces of his brothers to drive home the point. (With Leo/Past, Mikey/Present, and Don/Future). But the main reason I have is for the potential angst of the future never speaking, with Don looking so tired and sad/traumatized and Raph Begging for him to speak to him while Don sadly looks away and ignores him.

I NEED FIC RECS YALL

Dick Van Dyke had his heart set on playing Mr. Dawes, Sr. in Mary Poppins, and said they didn’t have to pay him anything extra, he just really wanted to do it for the fun. Although Walt Disney had offered him the part of Bert right out, he made him audition for the part of Mr. Dawes, Sr.   

While viewing a make-up test for Van Dyke in the projection room, Disney saw him entertaining crew members on the test film between takes with some comic routines, among them the “stepping down” routine of an old man trying to step off a curb without hurting himself. The test film not only convinced Disney to cast Dick Van Dyke as Mr. Dawes, Sr., but Walt specifically requested that crew members “build a six-inch riser on the board room set so Dick can do that stepping-down routine” in the film.   

[nahfuckthat]

Fun Fact: On the Mary Poppins 40th anniversary DVD commentary, Dick Van Dyke revealed that after they did the makeup test, he went for a walk on the Disney backlot. Spying a tourist tour bus, he tried out his “stepping-down routine” on the curb, and inched his way across the street, causing the tour bus to wait for him until he reached the other side. As the bus drove off, he waited a few seconds before breaking out into a sprint, running along side the bus in full old-man makeup, his cane gripped in his hand.

[disneytrivia]

And that is why he is king of all things
