Here's some notes on some of the upper body muscles so you, artist, don't need to look them up

They are not medically accurate, just enough for artists to know the necessary muscles and how they work together

I 100% recommend doing the last exercise I did to be able to actually place the muscles

yesterday i reblogged a drawing resource that included how to draw hijabs - and it honestly wasn’t the best advice i’ve seen out there

now, i’m not an artist. but what i saw was a video that included hijab styles most of us don’t really wear and incorrect terminology surrounding niqabs and burqas (yes, there is a difference between the two)

so, i went searching and found a tutorial that i felt was better! these drawing guides and examples come from @/winchestermeg on twitter, and i think they’re really great 💕

this has more relevant examples and correct terminologies, and is drawn by a muslim woman

enjoy, artists of tumblr!

we may not have been able to save brandon. but the fight is far from over.

this is dustin john higgs.

in 1996, he was convicted of kidnapping and murdering three women and was sentenced to death.

this conviction is entirely false. he didn’t murder anybody.

he has been found not guilty of the crime. at this point, the only reason he remains in jail is because he was at the scene of the crime. the court also claims that he bullied willis hayes, the man who actually did murder the three women, into killing them. however, willis hayes has come forward and has admitted that dustin DID NOT commit the crime, and he’s also even confessed that dustin never bullied him into murdering the trio of women. but the court won’t accept it.

DUSTIN JOHN HIGGS IS SCHEDULED TO BE EXECUTED ON JANUARY 15, 2021. HE IS GOING TO BE EXECUTED FOR A CRIME HE DID NOT COMMIT AT ALL. WE CAN’T LET THIS HAPPEN AGAIN.

so i recently found out that the change.org petitions won’t really make a difference because they aren’t legally binding. however, i found another petition that, if it gets enough signatures, will make it to the u.s. department of justice and by law, government officials have to legally overlook it.

THIS PETITION CAN ACTUALLY DO SOMETHING. CONTINUE TO SIGN THE CHANGE.ORG PETITION, BUT ALSO SIGN THIS ONE AS WELL

The more I use Zhongli, the more I'm convinced that he's actually really good??

On paper, I saw that the math proves that he's kinda underwhelming. But the more I use him, the more I realise that his shields are actually up for 90% of the fight. I don't even need a dedicated healer now cos he's so good at protecting.

He also fills a niche in my team... He fills in for Childe while he's on cool down. He spams pillars, shields and meteors while Childe can't attack.

His attack isn't that great, but his meteor spams so often that it makes up for that.

My team is under leveled for WL5... so the shields don't last that long but it isn't a problem too cos Childe/Benny replenishes the shields every time they attack... so the shields are always up.

I'm defeating bosses 10-20 Lvs higher than me cos Zhongli can protect Childe. I'm slowly becoming more and more convinced that he's strong >_<

^ I'm not good at team building, but I intend to build around Zhongli's shields now. I think these 2 sets will be good for Childe and Zhongli?

Anyway.. I'm not good at evading... even in Monster Hunter, I main the Gunlance cos I can't evade well... I depend on my shield a lot >_<

In my opinion, defence is good offence. I'm always in Teostra's face cos I know I can tank his super nova explosion >_<

I'm so conflicted...I trust math cos numbers can't be disputed...but at the same time my own play experience is telling me that Zhongli is actually good...

Not sure if I should trust my gut and go all out in building around his shields with Childe...

I have limited resources >_<

Hello! I’m new to mdzs but I absolutely loved the animated series!! It’s torture waiting for season 3... do you have any recommended series that’s like mdzs? ☺️

If you haven’t checked out the original author’s two other series Scum Villain or Heaven’s Official Blessing I’d check them out as well! (Both just started running in Sept and Nov respectively!)

Now for the genre rec, if you like the part where these weirdos can fly through the air and do weird ass crap with swords and stuff as well as beating the crap outta each other- I have some wuxia recs for you!

[If you like WangXian and would like to watch what I dub the “proto”-WangXian couple]

The definitive work of the wuxia/xianxia genre- and I’d even dare say a big inspiration for most of MXTX’s works. You can see that she took a lot of inspiration for the characterisation of LWJ and WWX from the characters of the ice cool jade beauty with a poker face but deep emotions, Dragon Girl and orphaned/fostered/unwanted gremlin boy Yang Guo.

The link above has all the music but no eng captions... if you need some captions here’s an alternative link you can try! (no music tho lmao)

(the prequel to this- The Legend of Condor Heroes is pretty much proto-JFM and Mdm Yu’s (aka Guo Jing and Huang Rong) getting together story except they actually do love each other. It’s worth a watch if you’re a completionist and are interested in watching the complete condor trilogy, but as expected from a proto-JFM, the main char is as boring as a block of wood imo lmao. For the curious, the last part is Heavenly Sword and Dragon Slaying Sabre- lots of cool fights though the main char is kind of an emo baby lol)

[If you like the 3zun and would like to see something similar to their dynamics]

It’s hard to explain what happens except 3 guys from very different backgrounds, somehow come together, decide to become sworn brothers and somehow stop a war from happening. There’s always something happening in the story, and plot twists are a plenty. Also features proto-JGS who is not nearly as terrible, though still a slimey creep.

For eng subs, turn on captions and auto translate the mandarin > english!

Features a tragic bromance, 4D mind games, beautiful costuming. There’s very little actual romance here, but lots of strategising, soulful gazing at your once-best friend as you try to will him into being less of a righteous dunderhead. 

And if you like the mindgaming part (which imo, is one of the best parts of period drama when done right- do take a look at the the Advisor’s Alliance / 軍師聯盟 which tells Sima Yi’s rise to power- sorry can only find an english dub for that lmao)

If you still have an itch after all these- do also look into Hong Kong wuxia movies! They are considered the cream of the crop for the genre, and even movies made in the 80′s and 90′s are still highly rewatchable (Stephen Chow’s stuff in particular lol - here’s one of my fav scenes of his) though the main issue is finding English subs for them.

If however, you’re more into the animation rather than live action aspect:

If you like the cultural world building and the semi-fantasy aspects! Features a diverse cast of characters and it’s also the main inspiration behind my pick for Sizhui as a qilin haha...

Almost 200 people were murdered in Armenia in 3 days and y'all are still ignoring us.

This is not a war, this is a massacre Azerbaijan and Turkey are committing against the Armenian people.

Turkey's president literally admitted that he wants to finish what his ancestors started. He wants to commit another genocide, and this time he wants to kill us all.

Silence is violence

excuse me but WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK

i’m scared to find out why he’s laughing like this.

upd. nvm he is just high :’) i’m -1 int irl

“Ugh. Can we kill them? Please? Pretty please.”

here we find out that if astarion says ‘pretty please’ i will most likely let him do anything he wants.

I don’t study genocides war crimes and human rights for fun. I study it bc my people have been at the foot from the very first genocide of the 20th century and previous attempts to exterminate my entire race. The fact that no one is speaking up when another genocide is at the brink of occurring to the ethnic Armenians living in Artsakh (Nagorno Karabakh) is mind blowing. I have to say I’m not surprised by the lack of effort - Americans, especially, are the most self interested humans I’ve met. This isn’t about narrative, this is about rapid belligerent individualism. We can philosophize all day about it but at the end - people don’t give a shit about anyone but themselves. There is rarely any altruism left in this world. As Monte said, no ones gonna fight for us, we will have to fight on our own to survive. The alternative is not an option.

@sarinezeitlian on IG for the photos

I haven't been able to stop thinking abt this vid I love this kittykat so much... She looks like she's in HEAVEN 🥺

(photos by Bill Watterson and an octopus)

I think this is the best scientist photograph I have ever seen.

But people didn’t believe him on reddit. So Watterson made the photo sequence into a gif.

Here’s the gif for anyone curious.

I had to go through the notes to find the gif. Not because I didn’t believe him but because I wanted to see it.

Sometimes I say self loathing things to my therapist and he looks at me dead in the eyes before saying “You fucking moron.” and tbh same

Me: I think I don’t exist.

Therapist: Listen, you do exist, and if you didn’t, someone would have to create you because the world would be a much sadder place.

Me: Jerome, how dare you saying something so sweet when I’m dissociating.

Me: Honestly, (thing that is totally fucked up for any ‘sane’ person) is normal, right?

Therapist: No.

Me: Wow.

Therapist: You’re just a fucked up bitch.

Me: I do agree with the fucked up bitch part.

Therapist: That’s a start!

Me: I guess he’s still my friend?

Therapist: Considering what you told me and how much you wanna beat him to death, he’s not. You pretty much hate him despite knowing him for years.

Me:

Me: Why did I need to come here to realize that.

Therapist: Because that’s my job to help you to understand some stuff. Also because you’re way too kind and you would let someone punch you in the guts and still consider them as your friend while they stab you.

Me: I don’t need that kind of call out, Jerome.

Me: Hey, I brought you coffee. And croissants too, but I ate them. *puts Starbucks coffee in front of him*

Therapist: Oh that’s nice!!... Oh my name is on it!!

Me: Yeah!!

Therapist: It’s wholesome but... *very confused and silently*... How do I drink it?

Me, not being able to come to my appointment and having to call him: I’m sorry, it’s all my fault, I’m so so so sorr-

Therapist: I dare you to say sorry one more time. I dare you.

Therapist: Hey I wanna show you this super funny image I found the other day.

Me: What-

Therapist: *turns his screen and show me THIS* 

Me: 

Me: Jerome.

Therapist: You went to the gaypride?

Me: Yeah, I went.

Therapist: Was it something you enjoyed?

Me: Mh. Yeah. Sorta.

Therapist: Did you see some bears?

Me:

Me: Jerome wh-

Therapist: That’s the only term I know outside of the LGTB one, I wanted to use it. 

Therapist: Are you sure you’re not becoming roommate with (name) because of pity? Kinda sacrificing yourself?

Me: No, I want it!!

Therapist: Finally, you’re not forcing yourself for the others! And you’re doing something you want! I’m proud of you!

Me: You’re more of a dad than my own father.

Therapist: That’s not very hard.

Me: I always wondered, are you queer?

Therapist: I am not.

Me: Ooh.

Therapist: Or am I?

Me: Ooh!

As an update, Jerome gave my appointment to someone’s else today so we were both in the waiting room, confused and he walked in, patted my head and said sorry but honestly it was hilarious.

The secretary came to tell me that Jerome actually forgot to write me down on the appointment list.

This is a 100% normal situation with Jerome as my Therapist.

As an addition, more than half of my friends want Jerome to adopt me and refer to him as “Therapist dad”.

He’s aware of it and think it’s hilarious.

Me, after complaining for the 25 times about my birth father: Idk if you noticed, but I’m full of anger against him.

Therapist: Oh, really, I never noticed. You know, you should turn that anger into indifference. It would help you.

Me: Unholy gods, I wish it was me.

Therapist: You know, people will still love you even if you don’t offer them things all the time. You don’t have to do that.

Me: What??

Therapist: Why don’t you send a mail to your psychiatrist when you have a bad mood swing?

Me: Like what? ‘Hey Joël wassup, I’ve been very suicidal lately last night I wanted to die. Hope you have rad vacations and the weed is good save some good kush for me, kissy kissy.’ ?

Therapist: Exactly.

Me: You’re as bad as me with human interactions Jerome, y’know.

Me, heavily dissociating: I don’t exist-

Therapist: Can I touch you to prove you that you do?

Me: Dinner first.

Therapist:

Therapist: Damien, you moron.

Therapist: You need vacations.

Me: I’m broke.

Therapist: Oh yeah.

Therapist: You still need vacations tho.

Me: Jerome, I am still broke.

Me, by text: Hey, you just walk by me!

Therapist, by text: Oh sorry. I didn’t see you.

Therapist, by text: Wait. Were you at the tattoo shop?

Me, by text, totally at the tattoo shop: You have no proof.

For a bit of context here: Around two months ago I went to a friend’s who happened the live on the same street as Jerome, which I didn’t know. He was really surprised to see me and came to check on me, asking me why I was here with a bit of concern on his voice. And this take place earlier this month:

Therapist: So your friend lives in the same street than I?

Me: Yes. Town’s short I guess.

Therapist: Were you really going to your friend...?

Me: Yes?? Why else would I be here?

Therapist: A lot of drug deals happen in this street and I see often teenagers and young adults coming and buy stuffs. I was a bit worried for you.

Me, at 2pm: I’m sorry I’m going to be late!

Therapist: Your appointment was this morning at 11:30am, Damien.

Me:

Me: What.

Jerome is still not aware of his fame and idk how to announce him.

Therapist; What’s up with you and wanting domestic rats.

Me: I’m gonna get a rat and call him Jerome just to piss you off.

Therapist:

Therapist: How dare you.

Therapist: Weed doesn’t do much on me and I must admit I’m kinda disappointed.

Me:

Therapist: Do you smoke?

Me: Jerome.

On hard days I wonder how Jerome is doing

He’s doing fine, last time he shown me his fav pic of a red panda which is this one

I FOUND IT I FOUND IT I FUCKING FOUND IT AAAAAAAH YOU HAVE NO IDEA HOW HAPPY THIS MADE ME FEEL

It’s really amazing how happy people get when they find this post omg

Always reblog Jerome.

Is he now aware of his fame?

After months, he is, and he just told me “Haha, this is funny. I’m happy it’s helping people!”

I think he doesn’t realize that he’s known *worldwide*

Jerome is adorable and I hope he knows this.

I haven’t cried like this is a long time😢. Nigeria is burning.

Today, 10/20/2020 the Nigerian government sent the military to kill unarmed innocent civilians, a bloody massacre.

Every single drop of innocent Nigerian blood spilled will judge Buhari, Sanwo-Olu and Tinubu. They will never know peace. The blood of the innocent will curse them. They will suffer severely before they die.

The government has turned off the lights and removed all the CCTV cameras, they did this before the military surrounded the protesters. They did it intentionally because they didn’t want the world to see their evil deed. Some people were able to go live on instagram, so we could see, but now the government has shut down all signals to the area so there is no service. All Lagos state emergency lines are off. The soldiers are blocking ambulances from going in to rescue those that have been shot and injured.

It is 10pm in Nigeria, these soldiers are still killing civilians.

They’ve arrested DjSwitch. She live streamed the whole thing. They’ve arrested her and taken her to an unknown location. The soldiers were instructed to shoot her on sight.

Please pray for her😭.
