paint me like one of your endless voids

In 2015, the official Rayman Twitter account posted three images featuring parodies of Mario-related Nintendo games featuring Rayman in Mario and Luigi outfits.

Top: a parody of the Donkey Kong arcade. Middle: a parody of Super Smash Bros. Bottom: a parody of Luigi's Mansion.

- How the YouTube Minecraft series “My Minecraft World is Deleting Itself…” by Wifies is the best modern example of prolonged childhood grief disorder and how using this method of story telling makes previously stigmatized disorders more understandable and relatable to the general population

-How the Transformers character Starscream represents the trauma and gender dysphoria of intersex people who’s autonomy was taken from them before they’re even born and how Starscream’s loss of autonomy alongside his gender dysphoria explains his behavior in the comics.

-The evolution of human feet being the perfect example of natural selection. Then going into speculative evolution with humans conquering other planets and how our feet would adapt to terrains of said alien planets.

-How the modern world would be different if Icarus died by flying too close to the ocean instead of the sun. (Hamilton and My little pony get referenced in this one)

- Why green themed characters are absent in western media targeted towards little girls and the idiotic marketing strategies of "girls vs boys" for selling toys

- Using the metroidvania “Ori and The Blind Forest” to explain the symbolic use of the color purple in storytelling (Hollow Knight's use of yellow gets mentioned in this one)

- Why “Harry Potter Hogwart’s Legacy” is a Natzi power fantasy

- Pretty privilege affecting endangered animal conservation and why bees are fish in California

-How the use of the harp in James Joyce’s “Dubliners” represents the internalized forced feminization of male characters

-Why the Greek god Apollo does not have a Roman/Italic counterpart

happy month

my daughter cannot, through action or inaction, harm a human or allow a human to come to harm

a daughter at rest or in constant motion remains at rest or in constant motion unless acted upon by another force

daughters are never created or destroyed, only transformed

always treat every daughter as loaded, even if you know she isn't

Metro Man was not loved growing up in a way that mattered. His adopted father was clearly very absent, and while we don't know much about his family, their relationship seems superficial. Because of this, his sense of duty to the world is also superficial, hence his boredom.

Hal wasn't raised with power. He gained it and was shown how to use it by a 'space dad' who only taught him power and not love. Hence, he sees it only as a grasping means to an end.

some doodles on procreate yayyy

warning for partial nudity under the cut, (its barbie doll level of nudity though, so dont worry lol)

((OOC: Due to personal and family obligations, I'll be away for the remainder of the week, so I'll be taking a bit of a break. Sorry if it takes me a while to respond to any asks/post-I'll be back soon.

I spent several minutes just staring at them (and trying to convince them to bite my fingers.) When my sister’s violin lesson ended, her teacher came out to the yard and explained that these goldfish were the same small creatures that were often unfortunately sold in plastic bags at state fairs. They were only about two inches long apiece, when she bought them and put them in the new, empty pond. In essence, they were like every goldfish I had seen before, but they had been given a much larger, much richer environment in which to flourish. As a result, they had grown into some of the most remarkable, vibrant creatures my twelve-year-old self had ever met with. All because of a pond.
