Making a new picrew!!!

We aren't abandoning our older picrew (the agere one) but we are making one that's disability centric! It will still have agere elements because we are cool like that. It will be in a different style as this one will be made on our new drawing tablet!

Remmick and the juke joint vampires if sinners was set in the 70s or smth idk lmao

On the whole Remmick being a cringefail loser thing, I so completely agree. Y'know the whole vampire hivemind thing and the way Cornbread was acting after being turned, I fully believe that was mostly Remmick puppeteering the guy in that scene with the "being kind to one another" thing and all that. And maybe that moment wasn't as endearingly cringe and awkward and off as I perceived it but it totally affects the way I view Remmick's character. This is a former human being, we all understand that humans have complex feelings and emotions and ways of thinking... and all humans require companionship and a sense of community or belonging. This is an old, old human who seems to have been without true companionship for a long while. Unable to truly connect, that fact stemming from his culture being snatched away from him (a point I am sympathetic to as an indigenous person who had the same thing done to me). I think him becoming a vampire happened around the same time, so you could also say losing his humanity made him unable to connect also. He wants it, wants his culture and his people and his family (and maybe his humanity) all back with him. He's old, and he's desperate, and he's lonely, and he's hungry. To me, he'll always be a wanting thing. Vampires inherently represent an insatiable appetite in my eyes.

Sorry for ranting, I just think all of the main characters in Sinners are all so interesting and I'm so obsessed with this film. Both because of the true meaning and because of the creative potential it hands me as someone who loves to analyze characters and write self indulgent fanfiction. And I love vampires, specifically Irish vampires. I blame Proinsias Cassidy for it.

YESYES I COMPLETELY AGREE.

To me, remmicks character is about yearning and desperation and loneliness. Yes he's manipulative and a lot his actions are just an act but behind it all is a true desperation.

When he comes to the juke joint and tries to get in, it's clear he doesn't understand black people and the race tensions of the time. When he talks to Mary, he moves way to quickly into the whole let me turn you into a vampire thing. I would never deny his manipulation but he's also a person who fails miserably at it occasionally. It's likely if he's taken his time, things would've gone much better for him. There's a good chance Mary would've told stack to let them in if he'd just been normal for a few minutes. But he's desperate and inpatient.

And please never apologise for ranting in my inbox, I love it so much

Wanted to make a notice cuz we've seen one of our mutuals talking about it- but if you did not request the personal AAC emojis don't use them without expressed permission from the person who requested them! We intended for these to be so people can have themselves in their AAC and have it personalized!

Also btw if you want one (still working on the last one in our inbox srry for the 2 day wait) you can request for us to send it privately (either in your messages or in your inbox) so it can be only for your eyes! We've alrdy done this with another person and is easily do-able!

Have a nice time zone everyone

"As I understand it, humans actually have a holiday in which they celebrate their planet. Not sure what there is to celebrate, really..." Coverton spoke to himself, "Humans ravage the planet's landscape for the sake of money and power...."

The alien smiled. "In some ways, humans are just as ruthless as some of us aliens..."
