if i ever come off a little weird and you wonder if theres something wrong with me there is theres actually so many things wrong with me but im doing such a good job being normal. so you should actually be proud of me you should smile and be like wow youre doing such a good job and then be on your merry way

do you...do you see how easy it is? how mind numbingly easy it is you don't even have to think about it too hard you can just (puts more black people in fantasy) (puts more asian people in fantasy) (puts more pacific islanders in fantasy)(puts more women in fantasy) (puts more nuance in each character design) (puts more depth in each character) do you see do you see this do y

Best trick I ever picked up. Seriously.

I have also learned this is great for [PICK A COOL NAME FOR A SHIP] and [LOOK UP THE FACTS ABOUT OXYGEN LEVELS] and [WHAT’S THE WORD] and [DOUBLECHECK CHARACTER’S EYE COLOR] and ALL KINDS OF THINGS.

Anything that isn’t critical in the moment, and could be filled in later while I’m currently trying to burn through writing pages that will be lost if I don’t get them out right now? Brackets.

This is seriously the best advice, and it really helps put it into perspective that the first draft is just that- a draft. There’s no reason to agonize over a particularly tricky bit of writing when you could just leave it in brackets and skip to the good parts, the parts you’ve visualized. I also use brackets for [fact-check this], [use a stronger verb], [is this in character?] and other notes as I write, just so I don’t forget what I want to work on when I go back and edit. 

This works for academic writing too. If you know where you’re going just leave yourself notes to fill in later. I do this all the time,

Yep.  If you want to tag those fill-in bits it for easy Find/Replace, start with TK, as it’s an uncommon pair of letters to often see together.

heyyy just a reminder that i have a redbubble and it would help me a lot if you guys could support my art like this. i never shared a lot about my personal life on here but I'm a poor artist and i don't have much going on for me and my art is my everything right now. i don't know when i will be able to work due to some mental/physical health issues and i would appreciate a lot if my followers would also consider buying something off my rb.

you can reblog this, and also thank you so much for sharing my work and caring in general. lots of love and a happy autumn 💕💞💕

ok but these movies have something to them that i want in the future of animated movies

I’m not just talking about the comical effects, but the exaggerated expressions, different framerates, and model styles really keep my attention on every second of the movie. (Saying a lot because I have no attention span)

I think, and it doesn’t have to copy these factors exactly, but if we follow this idea of uniqueness animated movies will have a great path in the future yk?

FedEx: shits on my box, stomps on my box, kicks it, dumps gasoline on it, throws one of my chickens into the back of the van UPS: whispers at my front door “is anyone home” as quietly as possible before leaving a “we missed you!” note, tries to gaslight me into thinking my address doesn’t exist USPS: sets my package down gently where it’s not visible from the road, knocks on the door and kisses me directly on the mouth

Is this…shipping discourse?

Amazon once threw a package at my door and then took a photo while it was midair. Not sure where that fits in this schema but I did want to tell y’all about it.

What a way to make a living.

my favourite thing is when enemies to lovers are getting heated…and their faces end up really close… and they’re making solid eye contact…and then one of them is just like… *gaze drops to lips*
