consume the darkness, return it to light

Dirk/30 This is just a random blog of things that I find interesting, as well as a few creative endeavors here and there.

I remembered I have free will…

So I wanted to practice furry art hahaha

-

The animal that each of them are and the reason why:

Yamamoto - Malinois

-Fierce and full of energy, loyal to a fault, look intimidating and will kill to protect, yet they can be silly, playful, and sometimes have a hard time to grasping the seriousness of a situation

-Also the color pallet of the dogs goes well with Yamamoto don’t you think ?

-And I also wanted it to be a dog so that it would fit with one of his animal box

Gokudera: Snow leopard

-They are solitary cats and extremely independent, elegant, very intelligent and strategic, when you get past the scary glares and sharp claws, you’ll finally see that they are not as scary as they look, they are quite shy, they are also known to not attack people (they’ll show displeasure or leave ) that is until someone tries to hurt their loved ones, they become brutal and feral

-And I also wanted it to be a leopard so that it would fit with his animal box Uri

Tsuna: Lion or domestic cat

-do I really need to say why? hahaha

-I was conflicted as to which one to choose, I thought to make him a cat but with some lion patters as seen in the sketch

-He has freckles and a pink nose because that's how you tell a lion's age; if he has this things, he's a cub

-i choose lion, but making him a cat in a dangerous world like the mafia? -makes so much sense, and what if he is a cat but transforms into a lion when using his flames, like a werewolf kinda situation ??

-Ah sorry I’m getting out of topic

Bonus: Enma - can you guess what animal he is?

Also on age verification: I have been on this website since 2011. Unless you think I started blogging at age 2, you KNOW I'm an adult.

[dreamerinsilico]

#the fact that 'can prove access to an online account at least 12 years old' or even 'account to be verified is itself fully 18 years old'#AREN'T accepted methods of age verification is such a telling sign of what the real purpose of age-gating laws is:#data harvesting and deanonymization and the buildout of state-controllable ways to restrict both content and internet access itself en masse (via @shinelikethunder )

Everyone asks boring questions about people’s characters, like “what’s their favorite color” or “what’s their favorite food” and not “What does their Psychonauts Level look like?”

in final fantasy xiv theres a healer class named Astrologian, which revolves around the mechanic of drawing tarot cards and using that to buff teammates up during fight. this is what it looks like in game. the cards revolve around a globe which the character plucks and read from.

this however was what the beta design looks like

this is an iconic duel disk from yugioh

this is urianger aurgurelt. aside from scaring the localizers so much they changed his speech from 1500-1600 english to something more modern-shakesparean, he's also voiced by KENN

KENN got his voice acting career off the ground initially back in 2004 by voicing judai the protagonist of yugioh gx

urianger.

Not sure got to feel when the hobby book says this should only take an hour but it took me 5 hours.

[gallusrostromegalus]

1. Hobby books are often written by the same people who think you can caramelize onions in 5 minutes

2. Hobby books are even more often written by people who don't have or are actively neglecting their partners/full-time jobs/pets/children/household maintenance.

3. Hobby books are often written by people with ADHD, and an hour in ADHD hyperspace is like 2-7 hours for everyone else, including other ADHD people who are not currently in the zone.

4. Hobby books are written by people who, when told by an editor to add in how long it will take, just make shit up

5. If you're doing something for the first time, you're going to take way, way longer to do it than someone who's had years of practice. Maybe it does only take an hour IF YOU'VE BEEN DOING IT FOR TEN YEARS. Think about how long it took you to make idk your first excel spreadsheet vs how long it takes now

To actually answer your question: proud. You should feel proud, because you made something, AND you did so while learning a brand-new skill! Go you!!

May I ask what the Allegedly-One-Hour project was? Both because I like hearing about what my friends are doing and I want to see how wildly inaccurate the listed time scope is.

My favorite part of Hirohiko Araki writing is when he shamelessly reads wikipedia at you as if every character in the story knows fun facts about everything

I genuinely mean this as a compliment.

It's iconic.

Hey, I'm running a Kingdom Hearts survey for a final project and I need data from fans!

This survey has three questions and should only take a couple of minutes.

Kingdom Hearts Survey

I need data from Kingdom Hearts fans for a final project! The data in question is to answer a few things: Which combat system is preferred

I'd really appreciate any reblogs for reach, I only have a couple of weeks to gather this data and I want a reasonable sample size for a series with as many fans as Kingdom Hearts does. Thank you all so much!

hi trans kiwis and friends. if you haven't seen the news, they're trying to pass a frankly insidious bill in aotearoa to define the terms 'man' and 'woman' based on biological sex. this unsurprisingly reflects a lot of similar cruel efforts happening overseas at the moment. IT HASN'T PASSED YET, but I figured I should speak up about it because this is happening as we speak.

(screenshot from the linked RNZ article)

it seems very fucking bleak!!!! please don't lose hope! it hasn't passed yet and a lot of the shoddy bills suggested by the coalition have been shot down already. it's still worth knowing about. you don't have to share this post if you don't want to. I just know that a lot of my followers are kiwi. if there are any updates as to what we can do to push back against this, I'll make a relevant addition. kia kaha, okay? love you all.

[crabussy]

UPDATE: you can now very quickly and very easily submit a comment on the bill! these will be counted and considered in parliament.

it took me less than three minutes, and that's only because I wrote a whole paragraphs on why this is a stupid idea. all you really need to put is "don't pass this bill" if you want. it'll only take 30 seconds.

if you're able to and you want to, please consider reblogging! the more reach this gets, the better. thank you all so much [:

“you cannot ship these two fictional characters because—” actually I can because they are not real people. they are just toys I play with. you cannot apply real-world morality to fiction or how strangers play with their imaginary toys in their imaginary sandboxes.

you can, however, curate your own internet experience by minding your own business, muting/blocking/scrolling past what upsets you but does not hurt anyone in real life in any way, shape or form.
