I have a dedicated art account!
I’ve been posting my art on @sashamini
and while I’m reblogging it here using the same old my art tag, please don’t feel bad for unfollowing this account if it’s the art you stick around for.
Reblogging this again for any of my mutuals returning here after years of tumblr silence.
Welcome back

first of all: same.
Second of all: Listen. You can read the Elevator Scene™ as platonic. I don't know why you would, but you can - she thought this man was dead, and she was as good as dead, and then he came back and saved her life and they are stuck out of time in the middle of a D-day level battle and neither of them have words for this scenario. This scene can work for all kinds of love, really.
But this scene. This scene makes absolutely no sense to include if we were not meant to see a physical attraction develop here. What is the point of showing us Jyn's smile turning awkward, her little glance when she runs into him? What is the point of lingering on Cassian completely losing the plot when she briefly gets closer than anticipated after smiling at him like that? What, pray tell, is the point of showing us that if they're meant to be Very Professional Coworkers, or 'sibling coded' or whatever fresh hell the interwebs have decided this is post Andor?
Most of their scenes in the latter half of this movie are filmed beat for beat like a romance movie. Like we joke about the similarities to Pride and Prejudice 2005, but the visual language is genuinely doing the same thing: Circling around two people while they are locked in a very personal moment in a crowded room. Lingering on someone's reaction to a small gesture or a careless brush from their person. Cutting to a smile with a musical cue like it is the climax of your scene. The focus on brief physical touch. Even the act structure of specifically their relationship is really, really similar - look:
Pride and Prejudice 2005:
bad first impression: Netherfield ball
argument in the rain where both accuse one another of their shortcomings: first proposal
grappling with said shortcomings, adjusting behaviours: meeting again at Pemberley
big selfless gesture: Darcy "rescues" Lydia
protagonist stands up to allegorical antagonist: Lizzie blows of Lady Catherine, who is a stand-in for... pride and prejudice
soft dramatic handholding with sun just over the horizon: second proposal at dawn
fatherly approval: Darcy and Lizzie both get approval from her father
Rogue One:
bad first impression: Jyn is forced to work with Cassian
argument in the rain where both accuse one another of their shortcomings: Eadu shuttle scene
grappling with said shortcomings, adjusting behaviours: Jyn standing up to the Council, Cassian reckoning with his guilt and responsibility
big selfless gesture: Cassian offers Jyn an army (and himself)
protagonist stands up to allegorical antagonist: Jyn faces off with Krennic and, by extension, the Empire she has tolerated
soft dramatic handholding with sun just over the horizon: The Beach
fatherly approval: "Your father would have been proud of you."
I am not seriously positing that Rogue One is a retelling of P&P, okay? I'm just saying that the movie language is saying something here and it didn't fucking stutter.
I don’t want to say anything, but in the novel he’s standing even closer behind her, and she reaches for his hand. Honestly, judging by the way they both look downward in the third gif, she could very well have done that in the film too, we just don’t fully see it.But apparently, according to what I was reading today, none of that matters anyway, because Bix is supposedly the love of his life and Jyn is just some annoying college girl he basically just met. :)

What they don’t tell you about getting into bird watching is that once you get into it, you do not get to decide when you bird watch. You can be on the beach of some distant tropical country with nothing planned except relaxing. But then you see a Common Fluttering Nut Buster and you’re like fuckkkkkkkk holy shit guys the Common Fluttering Nut Buster is not supposed to live this far west holy shitttttttttt

We investigated how they charge more for less.
So, we now know on a direct statistical level that Dollar General is literally making the Vimes Boots Theory of Economic Unfairness into a part of its core business model.
Sweet jesus…
True, the chain pays its workers industry-low wages in under-staffed stores that can be magnets for armed burglary. And yes, Dollar Store management targets economically struggling communities, focusing on customers who make less than $40,000 a year and visit the store multiple times a week. “The economy is continuing to create more of our core customer,” CEO Todd Vasos said in 2018.
But to those working class consumers, Dollar General promises to deliver “everyday low prices.”
In reality, without knowing it, customers are often paying Whole Foods prices for dollar store groceries.
A More Perfect Union investigation reveals that Dollar General charges premium prices across a range of staple goods—52% more per pound for chicken breasts than its cheapest competitor, for instance—but masks the high cost from consumers by stocking smaller pack sizes.
In other words, Dollar General often charges more for less. It offers low absolute prices for national brands, but in smaller pack sizes than other stores, in order to push per-unit costs higher.
Is your chosen first name often mispronounced?
Yes, almost always
Yes, more often than not
Yes, about half the time
Not often, but occasionally
No
No, and I would be deeply confused if it was

my name is Maureen and I pronounce it More-een. but I get Merine, Marine, Marr-een. it doesn't seem like a huge deal but when there's a Marie and a Maureen and you say my name wrong over the store PA it gets confusing.
I've never heard Marr-een til I moved to just outside the city of Pittsburgh. apparently the nickname around here for Maureen isn't Mo, it's Marr. (not a fan of either) but they also say keller instead of color out here, so..
anyway we won't talk about how no one knows how to spell my name unless they're a boomer
