Wally Wolf

I have a lot of names, but my given name is João Victor. I initially came to Tumblr simply as a fan of the horse show that must not be named, but the fondness of my friends for the website encouraged me to stay and explore. My favorite things to find are screencaps, animations and fan arts of cartoons, games and other forms of fictions, be it funny, cute, sexy or sometimes weird. My interests include, but are not limited to, 90's cartoons, Disney, Super Mario Bros., Pokémon, Harry Potter, Steven Universe, Regular Show, BoJack Horseman, Drawn Together and Skulduggery Pleasant. I do appreciate animals and fantasy a plenty. Walter "Wally" Wolf was an OC inspired on Happy Tree Friends I made around June 2010, with the help of a friend (missing you, Vini) and a dollmaker program (created by Zolrac3005). I wish I had the time, resources and abilities to create digital art, but unfortunately I have neither, so I might just reblog some interesting stuff and say some things, until I find a way to create.

your life is not an optimization problem

[dragonsblowingoutbirthdaycandles]

as in you'll never achieve the perfect daily routine, sleep schedule, coping mechanisms, mannerisms, fashion sense etc. even after years and years of healing and improvement and self-discovery. you will never be so good at life that you manage to utilize every waking moment. its great to be productive and all but sometimes you'll suck ass. sometimes you'll take eight hours to be done with a twenty minute job. you'll prioritize the wrong thing. you'll sleep for 12 hrs just to avoid being awake. you'll relapse. and you'll relapse again. you'll forget to turn in the assignment. you'll order too little food. life is far too large and complex for you to even experience it completely, much less try to make sense of and control it. you can't. please give up on that and be at peace with the hours you lose. they are not separate from your life.

How to introduce a family dynamic with one single establishment shot

Something I love about the opening scene of the Ruler is how, with one simple shot, you get to establish a lot about each family, their dynamic and their status.

Nathaniel's family is pretty distant with one another. The son and the dad do sit one next to another on a very large couch but they do not share a common body language. The dad takes a lot of space while Nathaniel is hunched, looking down. The mother is in her own corner, on a platform and separated by a rail, and she focuses on her work. The fact that the mom's office is in the living room hints about how, for her, work is more important than pleasure and relaxation.

Also, note how she is on a platform AND on a stool compared to the dad and son. She is purposefully elevated and has the high ground compare to them. She even has a lamp lighting her like a spotlight. She is the decision maker, she holds the power in the family.

The modern and black and white decor adds to this feeling of a cold environment. There is also a lot of straight lines and right angles of the furniture and rare accessories such as the couch, the coffee table, the carpet, the garbage bin(?) the rail, the platform, etc. Even all the books in the library are straight. The floor also appears to be epoxy. Everything has one sole and unique color and feels flat. We can guess the family is snobbish and as a very clear and orderly view of the world (read : black and white view).

Meanwhile, Marc's family sits all together on one single couch. This also allows the camera to be closer to them. This illustrates how intimate there are all with one another. They also all share a similar pose, which have them sit with their feet up on the couch. Which hints that they are also free spirits. They prefer to sit so they are comfortable rather than follow the rules and the establishment.

Their couch is well-used with round corners. We can see that piece of furniture had a long life : the fabric has been thorned at some places and the couch might even be lumpy. It is imperfect and yet they are still using it. It is still comfortable and functional for them. Basically, they won't fix what isn't broken.

Marc's family living room offers an abondance of textures and shapes as well. We have a wooden round coffee table. We see that the blankets have geometrical and lines patterns while The carpet the has more of an organic pattern. We can also see the carpet isn't aligned with any wall or furniture. The wooden floor has an herringbone pattern while the wall is made of bricks. Their library is full of books that are more or less organized. The earth-tones palette also gives off this warm feeling. From this single shot, we can see that that their living room is a very cozy environment and well lived in.

this is what happened in the episode right

[missconchshell]

I loved this new episode of Miraculous! Oh my gosh, I didn't even realize it was coming out, but I'm so happy it did!

I've never been too too attached to either Marc or Nathaniel, but this episode really won me over! It was neat getting to see both of their parents, and show just how much of a difference unconditional support can make. It really reminded of just how lucky I am that my own parents are so accepting.

I also love the contrast in the setting as well, with Nathaniel's family physically further apart, while Marc and his parents are all bunched together on the same couch. I feel like the show has been putting in a lot more care into framing and the setup of scenes this season, and I'm all for it!

Also, this is one of the first times I've seen their new designs up close, and I'm a huge fan! Love all the little details, like Marc's eye makeup, Nathaniel's self-painted shoes and his wavy little hairclip. Just look at the happy boy!

Now, onto the meat of the episode. Nathaniel's passions (and by association himself) being rejected by his parents did get me to tear up. It hurt and felt so real, I'm amazed to see this sorta thing in a show like Miraculous.

I felt so bad watching him destroy his work and try and force himself to conform to his parents' expectations. It was a very realistic picture of this type of struggle, and is definitely something I and I'm sure many others have struggled with before. And I was shocked at how blunt the writers got with the implied homophobia with lines from his mom about making Nathaniel "go straight."

Then once it got onto the mom being named Ruler, I just kinda started laughing, like, oh, they weren't gonna be subtle at all!

And dang Lila, willing to even use homophobia to get those miraculous. Tsk tsk.

The Akuma's power was definitely pretty creepy, like I hate these eyes so much, but Lila got really dang close to getting those miraculous this time, far more than any of Gabe's minion-based akumas! And despite this being the billionth time Chat Noir's been controlled, the physicality of the animation and voice acting did a decent job of making it funny.

It was also neat that the Akuma's powers got to be used against them, with Nathaniel finally stepping forth and taking back control from his mother (side note: I loved his transformation literally having him come out of the closet, the animators knew exactly what they were doing).

I know I've ignored them most of the episode, but I will say that Marinette and Adrien were adorable as usual! And I love that he feels comfortable enough with her to tease!

Then there was the ending. I'm so glad Nathaniel's parents came to accept his love of comics (and Marc). It was a sweet moment of acceptance that not everyone is lucky enough to have, so I'm glad we at least got a happy ending here.

I also really appreciate that little serious moment at the very end. I was expecting more Lila dialogue when the ominous music started playing, but having a serious moment where they discuss how they're attacked simply living their lives was a sad but pleasant surprise. It's cool that they're acknowledging a reality that so many people face every day. But I'm so glad these boys have each other in this!

And even if I know for a fact that the identity reveal is going to blow up in their faces one day based on the show's history, it still was so adorable and I loved the scene! Just the joy on each of their faces, knowing they're not alone, was so sweet!

Overall, I'm just really impressed with the writers this season! They're tackling a lot more serious topics in these one-off episodes, and honestly doing it far better than I ever expected from this silly love-square show. So many of these stories have resonated with me, and it's been really neat getting to see so much representation of different struggles. And it's especially cool to think about how these episodes could meaningfully impact the show's younger audience as well! These are the sorts of things I wish I saw more of growing up, it would have changed little miss shell's world for the better. So, keep up the good work Miraculous Team!

Even Downtown City had a spike in dairy costs.

Also hi Littlest Pet Shop fans I'm rewatching the show with a friend of mine.

Happy Easter!

What a couple a loserz

[lynxbatics]

One thing I really appreciate about Puss in Boots is that near the end, when Puss and Kitty decide to name Perrito, Kitty says:

And Puss replies with:

In English, this sounds a little bit janky - you would probably say "He doesn't look like a Jeff" instead. But in Spanish you would say "No tiene cara de Jeff." Which, translated word for word, means "He doesn't have a Jeff's face."

Not sure if it was intentional or not, but this little detail highlights Puss' Spanish heritage in such a subtle way that I can't help but applaud the filmmakers for it! I've seen so many native Spanish speakers make the same mistake of translating phrases word for word in order to match their Spanish counterparts, and I think it's so adorable that Puss does this too.

In New Horizons, if the game can't load an NPC due to their referenced model name being invalid, or for other reasons, the game will instead load a naked, unnamed Bob in their place as a failsafe. This was likely a dummy NPC used for testing reasons.

some of you have GOT to get comfortable with lying and situational morality and i'm not kidding

[inkskinned]

fucking hate it when the stuff everybody says "actually works" does actually work.

hate exercising and realizing i've let go of a lot of anxiety and anger because i've overturned my fight-or-flight response.

hate eating right and eating enough and eating 3 times a day and realizing i'm less anxious and i have more energy

hate journaling in my stupid notebook with my stupid bic ballpoint and realizing that i've actually started healing about something once i'm able to externalize it

hate forgiving myself hate complimenting myself more often hate treating myself with kindness hate taking a gratitude inventory hate having patience hate talking to myself gently

hate turning my little face up to the sun and taking deep breaths and looking at nature and grounding myself and realizing that i feel less burdened and more hopeful, more actually-here, that i am able to see the good sides of myself more clearly, that i am able to see not only how far i have to grow - but also how much growth i have already done & how much of my life i truly fill with light and laughter and love

horrible horrible horrible. hate it but i'm gonna do it tho

Also remember that letting people cover their faces in public did not lead to everyone getting robbed

[masarukt]

And also remember that letting people work from home, and attend virtual concerts, and go to meetings via zoom, and go to conferences virtually, and go to religious services virtually, and go to all kinds of other events virtually and thus, allowing for disabled and chronically ill folks to participate in society like never before…

But now, folks want to take so many of those options away all over again…isolating disabled and chronically ill folks from society again. It’s cruel…taking something beautiful like that away from us after showing us that something like that was possible this whole time since we have had the technology. And now that we know for a fact that the technology exists, non-disabled and non-chronically ill people want to take that away from us?

It’s beyond cruel.

If you’ve never been house bound or bed bound for months or years on end like I have? Or like others like me have? Then you have no idea what this feels like. None.

The skin texture used for King K. Rool in the SNES Donkey Kong Country trilogy was recently found, being a procedural leather texture called "leather1" from a commercial 3D asset collection, with the color simply being changed from brown to green.
