a murder of crows

lots of jirachi graphics for carrd/rentry/strawpage!

If you don't like drawing figures and poses because they're frustrating, draw figures and poses and get frustrated! Draw them! With anger! Swear and curse at them!

If you don't like drawing traditionally because there's too much room to make mistakes, draw traditionally and make mistakes! Scream while doing it! Put on scary music! Make it silly!

This goes for any kind of craft or skill

This nostalgia ties into the pattern we’ve seen since 2020, where people will unknowingly allow their headcanons to supplant their memories of the actual show, and proceed to get angry at anyone who contradicts their specific take. Overly generous readings of the text, and the insistence that ATLA can do no wrong on a messaging level, leads people to vehemently deny any critiques of the show that engage with its orientalism. This is not even mentioning how feminist critics get raked over the coals for questioning the way certain female characters were handled.

Most point out that they have a darker complexion and a huge grin, but I'd like to point out how Kuroko keeps picking up guys born in August? It's wild because it's happened three times.

From top to bottom, you've got: Shigehiro Ogiwara (August 10), Daiki Aomine (August 31), and Taiga Kagami (August 2).

Also, check out this fanart (I wish I knew the artist's name).

And then there's this doujinshi panel from Uncomura.
