I’m trying so hard to figure new ways to color and I feel like my art style keeps changing along with it 😭

I recreated the meme for a friend last year. (No I didn’t actually throw him in, as that’s pollution, and like Hell I’d part with my first edition Sanshee Foxy)

I had a dream last night that there was another live action of Black Butler and Sebastian Michaelis was played by Spencer from ICarly… it was so vivid and I can’t stop thinking about it

It's time to duel! ⭐

A good rule of thumb for AI is "would you trust a trained pigeon to do this?"

"We trained a pigeon to recognise cancerous cell clusters and somehow they're really good at it" okay great, that's something that could plausibly be a thing.

"We trained a pigeon to recognise good CV:s and left it in charge of sorting through all our job applications" uh perhaps consider not doing that.

do you think we'd have been made a god, had we been narcissus?

When Madame Red is about to stab Ciel, but sees his mother in her wedding dress instead...

Ciel, covered by Sebastian's black jacket, who signed a contract promising his death and revenge. Versus his mother, covered in a white bridal veil, who signed a contract promising the continuation of life and love. Two contracts and two veils - but one promises death while the other promised life.

I don't often find myself wondering if Kuroshitsuji is feminist or not. Frankly, I don't care. However, when I see people trying to claim that Yana Toboso is actively a misogynist, my hackles go up a bit.

Maybe that's just a gut response after years in a fandom where so many people disrespect her by projecting their own anxieties onto her and calling her a villain irl.

But genuinely speaking, from my perspective, Yana Toboso's work reads like that of a queer bitch whose protagonists are men and whose authorial bread and butter is bishounen, and so her female characters range from incidental to freaks. Sure they may be obsessed with men. But they ain't right. All of our female antagonists who are obsessed with A Man are way more defined by their willingness to like commit murder imo. And this is coming from me, who drops things pretty quickly if they're too heterosexual.

Is Sully's mom iconic feminist writing? No. However I will be the first to point out that she was a woman in STEM who won government funding via her own proposals in the 1870s and 1880s. And she does not have a single nurturing bone in her body. So you know, if she wants to fuck an ossan for his brains as a treat, I think that's fine.

I just think Toboso is a) not notably misogynist and b) writing whatever she wants. And so it comes out as the female characters just being people. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

What I've always loved about black butler is once you see yana once or twice in an interview or at the back of the printed mangas is you feel her everywhere in her work. You can tell she's just making Black Butler because she loves the themes she loves her characters and she loves her story.
