An amazing commission I got from @percivore of my Lego Monkie Kid OC, Xifang Baihu!! I’m so happy with how he came out, my tall meow meow!!! TTATT <3 psssst feel free to ask questions about him winkwink nudgenudge EDIT: my dumbass forgetting to actually add his personality summary and backstory smh- Personality and General Info: Mischievous, playful, and kind of a menace, and is a very carefree and go-with-the-flow type of person, in comparison to the stuffy properness of the other 3 Direction Guardians. Despite this nature of his, or maybe because of it, he’s often the one to keep the peace between the rest of the Guardians when arguments erupt. He’s very considerate, often putting others’ needs before his own, regardless of how detrimental that would be to him. He’s not fond of fighting, he often prefers to talk things out, instead. It’s not that he’s not good in a fight or weak, he’s potentially the strongest of the 4 Directions. It’s more of a matter of not being sure if he’ll be able to control himself in the heat of the battle, and lose himself to his baser tiger instincts. He’s scared of his own power, if he’ll be honest about it. It feels so wild and overwhelming inside of him, that he had to seal away a majority of it into his eyes.

i'm bored again but that's nothing new. i've counted the freckles on your face (51), and the splotches on the wall (178,320, in the six foot section of the world i can see in from of me before it reds out), and my eyes aren't good enough to count the hairs on your head.
take her ass to the timeloop
i lose myself in a fantasy for a moment, listening to the distant sound of someone talking; words, back when this was all new. memories of other voices are distant and half-imagined. i know academically other people can talk because you told me about yourself once, and the person i can't see told me about the accident
take his ass to the timeloop
maybe it's a memory or maybe it's a dream, but i think about a beach. a world where the horizon isn't red, where the infinite crashing of the vast ocean repeats. i think i was a beach guy.
take her ass to the timeloop
there's things i used to think about that i don't think about anymore because there's no point. you know all this anyways, i've told you so many times, but. the man who is standing to my right, who i can't see.
take his ass to the timeloop
i wonder about him sometimes, even now. i know, i know, there's no point, there's no point, but i wonder what runs through his mind. is he the lucky one?
take her ass to the timeloop
you and i have each other. he just has my right ear. my right hand, my best friend, the great big fuck up. but there's no point, there's no point, there's no point. i'll never know.
what do you mean accident?
did you know did you know did you know know know that light isn't the fastest thing in the universe? everything without mass goes that fast, lights just what we see. i was told that at some point, and i don't remember anymore why or when. but the fact stuck in my head, little scrap of glass, pearl to my brain oyster to you right now.
what do you mean accident?
i'm sorry i'm having trouble staying lucid right now. i'm having a bad timeloop. if i'm totally honest i've been having a bad time of it for a while now.
what do you mean accident?
i can always tell you about it though because whenever i have a bad timeloop i just look at your eyes and the flowers in your hair, and you make me feel better. how wonderful that i'm looking at you now and always will be.
take her ass to the timeloop
i want to pretend for a while, and i do, and i think about a memory or a fantasy or whatever about you and me and the man to my right at a beach with tall trees and rocky sand and water and the box that made all this possible and its fun! to think, to remember a place that's different. i'm so glad you're here with me.
take his ass to the timeloop
seagull screaming interspersed with the words that frame the world, maybe hotdogs, other people? and we'd sit there on the rocks and it'd be too too cold but we'd tough it out. i'm very tough. you remember right?
i'll be sure to Remember that
eating is fun. its gotten a bit fuzzy but thats a good thing because we'd all be dead if we needed to eat. we'll never die. i think i liked eating glass. beach glass was free candy in that far off before before before, all pastel colors and sharp razor bite. i'd give you some and you'd bite it happy and we'd remember it for ever ever ever
take his ass to the timeloop
there's nothing to do but count and pretend and remember and you, but that's okay. we have forever, so i can pretend a lot. being someone other than who i am, you're someone other than who you are. you're already two things, him and her, and that's so interesting to me.
take her ass to the timeloop
lets pretend that-- no no that's boring. i'll go back to counting counting counting. I'll try and count the hairs on your head again, even if my eyes aren't good enough. the effort's worthwhile, and your hair is so pretty-handsome-pretty anyways.
take his ass to the--------
i love the flowers in your hair, all red and white.
take --- ass to the timeloop
i've pretended to be different people before. maybe i'm pretending to be someone else now; it's hard to remember. if it was important, would i have forgotten? we have enough time to figure it out though.
take --- --- to the timeloop
i'm taking a break from counting your hairs, or pretending to count your hairs, or pretending pretending pretending-- and thinking about who i want to be next time. maybe i'll count the spots on the wall and the freckles on your face and the shell casings on the ground again.
take --- --- -- --- timeloop
i meet your eyes again and i wonder, not for the first time, what you're thinking, how much i want to tell you and have told you and will tell you am telling you. do the flowers make it hard to pretend?
---- --- --- -- --- timeloop
the open cavity in your skull spreads flowers of grey and red and white all across the air, across your hair, across the red horizon and white walls that bound our perfect world. i count the pieces of you, displayed forever, swirling in violent beauty-handsome-beauty. 47, 48, 49. your gun is useless on the ground, defanged by eternity in four seconds. you meet my eyes and i'm so so happy.
---- -- --- ---- -------?
i have everything i want here and now and forever. i pretend, i remember, i count, i look at you.

for a while there i was sympathetic to tumblr because of how much they’re in debt; i was kind of like “well of course they’re absolutely desperate for new users, they literally need the money or else tumblr goes down forever”. and then suddenly today it hit me that there’s actually no fucking reason for that debt to be causing these ui changes? the userbase has been INCREDIBLY clear about what they want from tumblr over the years, not to mention clear about the fact that even twitter people don’t need this place to look like twitter. it actually would be very… EASY? for them to just make changes in a direction people would actually be HAPPY with?
for fuck’s sake there were people trying to organize a “crab day” for tumblr despite tumblr doing nothing but telling us to go fuck ourselves for months on end. there were people spending hundreds of dollars on check marks just for the glee of MAKING FUN of twitter. can you IMAGINE how much money this userbase would donate to tumblr if they actually made ui updates geared toward what people have been asking for?
if tumblr actually crowdsourced ideas or even just LISTENED to their userbase it may have been possible for them to make way more money than they’re begging for now, they just insist on trying to drive their actual demographic and loyal userbase out for literally no reason

Adobe Premiere is like a horse
hates being alive. expensive. designed to run fast. does not. makes me feel like a girl in a mid 2000s horse girl movie going shhh shhh in the only one who understands you. it’s okay girl. and then it bites my fingers.
u okay bud?
It crashed as soon as I made this post i’m gonna feed my editing software oats 👍. from my hand 🫴
oh ok hope that helps
For those concerned about the horse’s ears,
The horses do indeed wear earplugs to protect them and to prevent spooking. The horse and rider both are generally required to wear hearing protection in this particular kind of show.
In 1960, SAG and WGA struck to force management to adapt to the new technology of television. Without that strike and the agreement it birthed, residual use payments would not exist.
My parents stole nearly all of my salary from my entire childhood. My Star Trek residuals were all I had, and they kept me afloat for two decades while I rebuilt my life. I have healthcare and a pension because of my union. The AMPTP billionaires want to take all that security away so they can give CEOs even more grotesque wealth at the expense of the people who make our industry run.
To give some sense of what is at stake: There are actors who star in massively successful, profitable, critically acclaimed shows that are all on streaming services. You see them all the time. They are famous, A-list celebrities. Nearly all of those actors don't earn enough to qualify for health insurance, because the studios forced them to accept a buyout for all their residuals (decade of reuse, at the least) that is less than I earned for one week on TNG. And I was the lowest paid cast member in 1988. They want to do this while studio profits and CEO compensation are at historic highs.
I mean, if not now, when? And I haven't even touched on AI and working conditions.
We must fight for the future of our industry in the face of changing technology, the same way our elders did in 1960. So today, my Spacemom and I went to the place where it started for us, way back when, to do just that.
I see all your support. It means so much. Thank you.
it would be kinda cool if hollywood being shut down had the side effect (besides hopefully getting everyone better working conditions ofc) of getting some non US movies and shows a bit more of a platform again outside the US, cause why the fuck is there like mostly only hollywood in much of the world, i love the chokehold US imperialism has on pop culture, it's great
this also goes out to everyone being like "waaahh there will be NO MOVIES and NO SHOWS what am i going to WATCH" like girlie, this is a US strike, u have a whole worlds worth of rly fucking good entertainment to watch. ur missing out, get out of ur comfort zone, watch some weird ass local european movie with questionable subs, go watch that thai tv drama, this is the perfect excuse to check out anime if uve considered it "cringe" so far, there is the whole world of bollywood too! and there is so much shit i dont even know about thats out there just waiting for you to watch it and blorbofy!

Pre-JTTW Monkie Kid AU idea: basically Macaque and Wukong never met before the brotherhood. In fact none of the others (DBK, Azure, Peng or Yellow Tusk) have met him either. Rather when the brotherhood is just beginning, Wukong more firmly aligned with Azure and his plan to overthrow heaven, as they are the closest of the brotherhood without Macaque around.
Until Macaque washes ashore Flower Fruit Moutain. Waterlogged, exhausted, and predictably shaken up the newcomer is cuttingly sarcastic, grumpy and as prickly as a cactus. But also had a strange innocence to him, reacting to the ease of life on the mountain and its inhabitants with baffelment and strangely endearing suspiciousness. Wukong quickly becomes enamored with this new monkey. Macaque who in turn is enchanted by the mountain, by the monkeys, and by the Monkey King himself.
Wukong who has whole heartedly for their plan to turn against heaven originally finds himself distracted. Suddenly overthrowing the emperor seems much less important than helping Macaque experience many firsts he's never had before and in return learn more about his mysterious new companion.
Even embracing a side of himself he's never trusted with anyone else before meeting this new monkey.
The brotherhood is suspicious of the new monkeys convenient timing but moreover annoyed with Wukongs complete and utter disregard for their plan in favor of his new crush companion.
(Meant to be mostly disgustingly in love pining/oblivious Wukong with touch-starved Macaque and the rest of the brotherhood starring as Timone and Pumba from that one song in Lion King mixed with a little Road to Eldorado)
