I’ve gotten a lot of new followers recently (yay) and I’d just like to say TERFs, aphobes, biphobes, anti-MOGAIs, any sort of LGBTQ+ exclusionists absolutely get the fuck away from me.
Trans women are women.
“““cishet”““ aces do belong in the LGBTQ+ community.
Bi and Pan solidarity is important. Both are good, neither are “problematic”.
I support anyone with uncommon genders/orientations, who have a billion and one gender labels, who use neopronouns, or switch pronouns often.
Seriously disgusted at how many of yall exclusionists still exist and haven’t grown the fuck up. You’re hurting everyone and I don’t want to deal with you.

Full Outer Wilds spoilers ahead!!!! Go finish the game and then come back, if you havent.
Allow me to pretend I'm explaining some of Outer Wilds to a newbie really quick. It's the only way I can fully explain how crazy this OST is making me.
On Timber Hearth there's an area called the Quantum Grove, where Gabbro- the hatchling's time buddy- loved to chill in because it has adopted quantum properties from the quantum rock there. In it, theres a poem by Gabbro calling the place "the ancient glade". At the end of the game, after entering the Eye of the Universe, you're first dropped into a mimicry of the museum on Timber Hearth. Then, you're dropped into a quantum forest, filled with dying stars. And the music that plays there?
"The Ancient Glade."
A song that ties back to Gabbro. One of the hatchling's fellow Travellers and friend. In an area that has you trekking through what's essentially memory lane to bring every Traveller together for one last campfire, one last marshmallow, one last song. One last moment spent all together, before the end comes. As they all accept that the Universe is going to die. There's nothing that can be done, the Universe is and we are. One moment to soak in the warmth as they embrace the end with open arms. Ready to die, surrounded by the ones they love. Excited to make way for the new.
And then. These developers. These cheeky, cheeky developers. Andrew Prahlow. Everyone behind the beautiful music of this game.
In the youtube posted Travellers OST, near the bottom of the playlist and grouped up with all the end songs, all the instruments eventually begin to degrade. Grow faint. Become echo-y in this blurred mass of sound.
But what insturment returns to clarity, prevails to the very end, when all else is gone? When silence whisks away the entire universe?
The banjo. Riebecks banjo. You know, the astronaut who's terrified of space. Who set up camp for who knows how long on a stable little corner of Brittle Hollow, trying and failing to convince themself to get up- go see the Hanging City- because they were so terrified of the black hole. Riebeck, who despite all the fear plauging them, had became an astronaut to see the Hanging City with their own four eyes. To see what's out there, beyond Timber Hearth. Flying across space, refusing stay grounded back home, despite the very real danger of death constantly looming over their, everyone's head.
Riebeck. Riebeck's insturment is the only one that stays to the very end.
Despite the Universe dying. Despite the sun going supernova. Despite the fact they will no longer exist. Because that curiosity, desire to see the new, is held in every species- no matter the universe. Despite everything, life will persist. Even if the Hearthians, Nomai, Owlks aren't there to see it. It's up to travellers what impact they leave behind, for others to find. And these travellers choose to carry on their campfire song into the next universe.
no carceral sentiment or raised minimum sentence or punisher-logo-adjacent slogan or mob enacted justice could lower abuse rates 1% as well as just providing all people of all ages the financial and legal ability to separate themself from any living situation, regardless of familial or marital status, with ease and with the security of knowing they'll still be housed and fed
it is of course easier to performatively ban children from social media than to do things like "actually challenge and regulate the abusive tactics tech companies use to extract people's data and money via social media" but if we did the second thing we wouldn't have any excuse to force people to use digital ID :(
Because, as we all know, the minute people turn 16 we immediately develop an immunity to predatory algorithms, dark patterns, disinformation, harassment, abuse, grooming, and privacy violations.
The UK government, as always, prefers to do something ineffectual for the sake of being seen to be doing something, regardless of the fact that the thing they're doing has already proven to be entirely ineffective or (in the case of banning puberty blockers) to make the situation far, far worse.

i'd like to add that the shadow color isnt necessarily dictated entirely by the primary light source, but the bounce light! so for the example of a sunny environment, the reason the shadows are blue are because of the light from the blue sky reflects across the environment; but, if the character were to be under tree cover, the bounce light would be coming from the leaves and thus the shadow would look greener.
James Gurney is an absolute master and gives really good clarity on colour techniques. Yes, it is traditional paint focused, but the principles are the same. Yes it is informed by the environmental colour but as a painting technique it is achieved this way!
I would also suggest that in digital processing, rather than apply a regular colour layer at a mid opacity, try out the different types of layers, Eg. Screen or Multiply. This can give you at least a starting point to help direct your colour palette.
Layer Blend Modes are so so so important to working in digital art. There's a ton of math that goes into figuring out how the layers should blend together, which is why some of the modes you can pick are literally called Multiply, Add, Divide, and Difference (that's subtraction). The graphics software takes the color values of your base and blend layers and runs a calculation to get your resulting layer appearance. The ones that don't have specifically mathematical sounding names are still doing calculations, but they're more complicated (think linear Algebra and higher). Some of them, like dodge and burn, are named for actual photo editing techniques.
While it's not super important to know about the mathematical side of blend modes, I think it's worth knowing at least enough about how each of the categories of blend modes works and why they do what they do; if for no other reason than having a starting point when you start experimenting with them in your work.
An overview of the basic blend modes and how they work from Genevieve's Design Studio: Accessible with minimal color knowledge; practical and illustration focused. https://youtu.be/kMc87hQrJd0?si=TWCB365pKSfWS8p0. (16 minutes) This creator also has a ton of free resources you can download, including a Blend Modes cheatsheet, but fair warning: you have to create an account to get them!
Want to learn even more about the math-y stuff? It has great film visuals! A video from FilmmakerIQ: You need some basic knowledge of RGB color models, understanding of values/luma, and at least a tenuous understanding of Algebraic formulas.

the reaction when someone is misogynistic to a cis woman: "wtf that's not ok you can't treat women like that"
the reaction when someone is misogynistic to a trans woman: "hahaha that's so funny, you're treating them- i mean her, like a woman. gender affirming misogyny am i right hahahaha"

Hey family ❤️ 🩷 I don't want to keep reblogging a big long post about all the health issues I'm having while starting trade school, so I thought I'd link

hey white people . if u dont know how to pronounce an ethnic persons name *google it* or if its someone ur talking directly to *ask them*. dont fucking do that "erm i dont know how to pronounce but __" or "im gonna butcher this haha" or "im not even gonna bother trying" . ur not funny. do u know what poc think when they hear u saying that ? u sound like a loser asshole and we dont want to spend time with u . im so fucking tired of watching youtube videos about media from my country and hearing those phrases. im tired of people saying that to my face . i respect someone who clearly looked it up and is tryong but says my name wrong over someone who just goes with whatever bad first guess they had without trying. u have too many resources at ur disposal to keep doing this. for the love of god just Fucking Try. if ur confused Just Try.
I highly recommend Forvo.com, the website where native speakers of a language contribute their time and voices to read words and names in their own language. It is a fantastic way to expand your world, open up your ears, and it's way more likely to nab a hit than just googling.
Daily reminder to Americans on this website that American war on Iran is bad because Iranians are getting killed not because you can no longer afford going to the movies in the weekends or refill your car 😒
