IM JUST DIPPIN IN HERE to say: im still busy moving but hopefully once thats done ill be more active here?? No Promises bc i still have brainshit that makes it hard to wanna exist socially but U Kno
i’m gone for over a solid month here and This is what i come back to post.
a valuable lesson im learning is that sometimes if u hav like. a stupid idea for an edit that u can easily accomplish over more. complicated high-effort art stuff, Just Do The Edit bc it maintains the creative juices at a low cost of energy Hashtag Life Hacks
i only wanted to pop in to say that cause, i wanted to say whats improved abt my current situation (im also finally, getting back into the swing of writing and drawing again tho the downside of that is it takes up my focus from other things but u know what, thats fine if im Finally, Accomplishing shit again)
and also im still not. over how there, was three whole weeks of a smoke alarm beeping every minute and they did nothing abt it. how do u Live like that
ok so. to recap: my nextdoor neighbors had their smoke alarm going off for every minute of every day for Three Whole Entire Fucking Weeks and it only stopped because my dad called maintenance and told them to fix the alarm FOR them... like... u kno how loud smoke alarms are? theyre. Meant, to get ur attention. theyre designed to be annoying so you want to shut them off. i could hear it thru the wall every day adn it drove me up the wall i cant imagine Being in the Same Room as it and jsut doing, nothing. about it. jesus christ.
BUT on the bright side of things. i dont have 2 deal with that beeping happening for the next month nd a half that im staying in this apartment anymore.
i k now nothing about metal gears but ill tell you this once
solid snakes fursona would Not, be any kind of snake. it wouldd be a domestic cat, Proof:
- fuzzy
- sneaks around
- likes being in cardboard boxes
- looks serious but actually is a huge dork
- probably slaps things off table counters when bored
- gay
Life UPdate but: im getting ready to move in like two months and focusing on that means i ahvent been here as much, but: so far the process’s been coming along good, and im looking forward to it, Mostly bc my nextdoor neighbors where i am rn have taught me a valuable lesson in Hating Where I Live
like... their smoke alarm’s been beeping for at least a whole week bc none of them can tear themselves away from an argument long enough to do anything about it. and i can hear it through the wall. its going off about every 15 seconds. and i cant do anything about it.
august cant come quicker
im of the firm belief that a stock image’s quality gets Higher the less i’m able to imagine any actual context they could be used for. the more they defeat the purpose of their existence the better.
gd i just remembered this stock image i have saved
its such a mood like... the guy just, weakly accepting the cake in his face? holding the chili pepper like a switchblade? the Fuck Croptop??? aesthetic
hi my hair has a wingspan of 17 inches but im hoping to get it to at least a yard by my mid-twenties
my ultimate goal whenever im able to finish one of the like. thousands of writing projects i have rattling around my skull is basically: i’d hope they get a following big enough that id get to see fan speculation both of a “deep dive into the recurring motifs of the narrative and their thematic significance” video essay kind and a “Top 10 Gayest Moments” kind
THOUGH MY FAVORITE THING about MGS1 and that im sad goes away by the time of MGS2 is how everyones face is just like. a flat plane with hugeass pixels that vaguely look like facial features. and because they dont have like, actual modeled mouths, they have to nod their heads up and down rapidly to “talk” like its a fukcign 2000s era gmod video its great
hotaliens replied to your post “its also weird bc again ive experienced a lot of mgs secondhand...”
SOLID SNAKE HAS NO STOMACH ACID!
He has no acid, He crawls on floors Solid Snake is anti-war
its also weird bc again ive experienced a lot of mgs secondhand through like. the old hiimdaisy fancomic dubs and u kno general Gamer Jokes about how cutscene heavy and incomprehensible the plot gets so it all felt familiar even for watching it for the first time but i still wasnt ready for “I smuggled cigarettes in my stomach cause my stomach acid doesnt work” which is like the tenth thing snake says in the game i think
whats up gamers i watched the entirety of MGS1 last night and heres Some thoughts:
- just abt every other scene was a condemnation of war or nuclear weapons, and right after snake snowmobiles off into the horizon, it fades to a black screen with text just talking about real-world history relating to the restriction of nuclear weaponry, and experiencing the game firsthand REALLY makes me fucking baffled that there’s some MGS fanboys don’t think the series is political in any way and are basically like that “WOW!!! cool robot” image
- i thought it was neat how varied the boss fights were cause i think it sucks how some games will settle for “bosses are just regular enemy fights but Longer” so it was neat to see each one take advantage of its different location and the fighting styles of its enemies
- ive heard that kojima doesnt treat his female characters well, and UH, yeah. what was up with explicitly establishing that meryl isnt interested in men and then turning her into a love interest for snake anyway. we all know theyre both gay, kojima.
- on the other hand of snake’s love interests, otacon’s “do you think love can bloom even on the battlefield” scene was even gayer in context than i thought it was gonna be
- gray fox is voiced by the same guy who voiced grim from billy and mandy??????
