Ok im done being mad heres the patented ultra high-tech irrigation system i can up with:
a) cut a milk bottle open
b) unscrew the lid and bury it upside down
c) profit??????
pros: less wasted water from evaporation, prevents wet leaves and the spread of fungus, very helpful if it hasn’t rained in a while and the dirt is repelling all the water
Sanguosha (三国杀): Liu Xie (Bohe), Emperor Xian of Han
Some more Zhuzhi-Lang sketches
Ok i know i based his design on a cobra bc they’re venomous and have a cool hood, but behaviour-wise he gives me ball python vibes (slow to bite, curling up when they feel threatened)
YOU CAN YOU UP: Zhuzhi Lang character redesign! because every deadbeat demon lord needs an adorable emotional support snake sidekick/nephew!
ok full disclosure im so obsessed with the original Scum Villain art i want to print it out and eat it. but i did feel like a lot of the characters have really similar faces, which made it difficult for me to tell them apart, and Zhuzhi Lang's design in particular was way too basic which is a huge missed opportunity for fun character designs! I thought his outfit should reflect the supple and flowy movement of a snake, so i went with a Han Dynasty dancing girl outfit with a nice leafy green pallet, just like his namesake, the bamboo. when he moves, i picture him gliding around silently, and no one has ever seen his feet.
[ID 1: Sketchbook art of Zhuzhi Lang from Scum Villain Self-Saving System, a page for each picture. The first shows a full body sketch of his more humanoid form done in black marker and watercolor. His pose is bent and curves to show a snake-like posture, he wears green robes with snakes curling up and around his arms, his hair goes down in a long almost ankle-length braid. Notes pointing around his figure, say, "Cobra shaped hair (hides his lack of ears)" Points to sleeves, reads, "Han Dynasty sleeve dancer inspired outfit (hides snakes)," points to around his ankles, reads, "moves like he has too many bones (or not enough)." Three sketches to the side show black and white face shots, one showing him coyly looking over his shoulder with his tongue flickering out. The second shows him ugly crying. The third is fully teeth bared, a mouth of sharp teeth showing, hair flaring out around him. Then below the fully body is a pencil sketch of him noodle waving, labeled, "silly time!" End ID 1 of 2]
[ID 2: Sketchbook art of snake form Zhuzhi Langf. The top one a full body illustration of snake form with black marker and watercolor, showing a green snake with long black hair growing from his head and a snake body partially contorted with a more humanoid torso and bone structure in the middle, despite otherwise seeming very full snake. He basks in the grass with a bit of foliage overhead. The we get into pencil snake sketches below that, showing a Chinese Cobra, full body, with a close-up of a snake face with some straggly hair to one side, and then the back of the snake head not seen in the full-body to the other side. Labeled, "Chinese Cobra Naja atra." End ID 2 of 2]
YOU CAN YOU UP: Liu Qingge character design I thought it would be cool if I based each peak on the fashions of different chinese dynasties. First up: Bai Zhan peak is known for it's martial prowess, so i decided to go with a Qin Dynasty inspired outfit. yes this is just a transparent excuse to draw the cool side-buns again. I decided to make his outfit as conducive to Violence as possible, so there's a lot of armoured elements, and everything is short and bound-up. The cape is just pinned to his outfit and there's a quick-release function. If you noticed the hair and cape blowing in opposite directions. No, you didn’t. The Qin dynasty was also famous for it's very long thin swords (probably only ceremonial, they would have been fragile and difficult to draw on the battle-field) but since this is a magic sword we're ag. it deals +50 badass points with every swing and provides liu ge with superior reach. -3 points Are You Compensating? debuff tho.

text from porter robinson's "goodbye to a world"
every single animal in this comic is extinct. it's not too late for the ones that are left.
edit: thanks @mudcrabmassacre for the correction, smilodon fatalis did not in fact go extinct in 1023 AD. the actual prediction is around 10,000 years ago - I think i may have missed a zero or two.
things that happened to me when i was a woman in STEM:
an advisor humiliated me in front of an entire lab group because of a call I made in his place when he wouldn't reply to my e-mails for months
he later delegated part of my master's thesis work to a 19-year old male undergrad without my approval
a male scientist at a NASA conference looked me up and down and asked when i was graduating and if i was open to a job at his company. right before inquiring what my ethnicity was because i "looked exotic"
a random male member of the public began talking over me and my female advisor, an oceanographer with a pHD and decades of experience, saying he knew more about oceanography than us
things that have happened to me since becoming a man in STEM:
being asked consistently for advice on projects despite being completely new to a position
male colleagues approaching me to drop candid information regarding our partners / higher ups that I was not privy to before
lenience toward my work in a way I haven't experienced before. incredible understanding when I need to take time off to care for my family.
conference rooms go silent when I start talking. no side chatter. I get a baseline level of attention and focus from people that's very unfamiliar and genuinely difficult for me to wrap my head around.
like. yes some PI's will still be assholes regardless of the gender of their subordinates but, I've lived this transition. misogyny in STEM is killing women's careers, and trans men can and do experience male privilege.
I forgot that people were transgender and I thought you turned into a man like in a mad scientist way like with some type of doofenshmirtz machine
this is the only reply on this post that is good

-WIP: In which Lu Bu goes down absolutely SWINGING-
A captured Lu Bu offers his services to Cao Cao, but Lui Bei points out that he's betrayed everyone he's ever worked with, which convinces Cao Cao to kill him.
Lu Bu looks up, sudden clarity in his eyes, and catches a glimpse of the real Liu Bei behind the virtuous artifice. Like recognises like. The look on his face is equal parts rage, hatred and understanding. This genuinely shakes Liu Bei--a man who believes his own mythology--to be so confronted.
I'm obsessed with Lu Bu's execution. it's a rare moment of introspection for a reckless, hot-head character and it comes right before his death.
I've taken a lot of liberties with the translation by writing it in a way I think captures the feeling of the text. A more accurate translation would be: "Big Ears is the most untrustworthy of all!"
"Meaning vs Intent" is a minefield even among professional translators, and i'm only an amateur. if you go too far, you end up putting words in the author's mouth. Do it too literally, and it fails to resonate due to cultural differences. I had two scrapped alternative takes: 1. "Fuck you, you two-faced, big-eared bastard!" - Too emotional. Han dynasty put a lot of stock in dying honourably. a seasoned general like Lu Bu would rather die (haha) than display such undignified behaviour. 2. "Big ears, you're the most treacherous of them all!" - Accurate, but is too short and lacks the bite one would expect from your last words to the enemy. I decided to go with "two-faced" because it has a nice symmetry with "big ears." The phrase doesn't exist in chinese so I was hesitant to include it, but the face is associated with honesty and pride e.g. "losing face" so I think it passes. "Bastard" was added to "Big Ears" to emphasise this comment is highly insulting. To an Anglophone reader "big ears" sounds incredibly juvenile and doesn't hit the same way. respect was a HUGE deal back then (and still is). It was taboo to even call a non-family member by their real name (courtesy names were used instead), the correct forms of address and formality were essential and to break form was quite literally a slap in the face. san guo fans wdyt?
LMAOOO IM TALLER THAN CAO CAO
^check this guys channel if u like romance of the three kingdoms, this guy does a great job explaining the real history of san guo and its a good way to learn the pronunciation of all the names

Guan Yu reading “Spring and autumn annals” 关羽读春秋

*Who are you?
aspect of Guan Yu lol
extra special secret scenes from the lost bladesman that 100% exist. trust me bro they totally filmed it. the director told me. from my other post:
donnie yen's physicality is great, when he fights he's 100% the real deal, but when he acts he stumbles and i think it's mostly from not knowing what to do with the character. it doesn't help that jiang wen EATS in every scene. he plays this unkempt, foul-mouthed cao cao with such warmth and pathos, even when he shows his ruthless side you can't help rooting for him. I think they should take guan yu and go in the total opposite direction. donnie yen is good at playing the straight man, with this untouchable coolness to him. why no triple down? make guan yu absolutely ice cold and actively hostile. he never smiles. barely speaks. he moves through every room like a tiger on the prowl, watching and waiting. his honour is a chain around his neck, without it, he would have torn out cao cao's throat long ago.
concept #2: double down on the historical costuming and give donnie a beard that didn't suck.
concpet #3: cut the dumb aphrodisiac wifeplot. that would have freed up at least 5 minutes of runtime so we could see cao cao and guan yu's first meeting. now all that excellent hostility has gone to waste.
this is very stylised but CAN YOU SEE MY VISION???
People say this to me all the time
