i dont know what im doing

I remember doing those several times in my life and it always put me in like the 98th or 99th percentile, and one of them even was like "your vocabulary is equivalent to that of a college professor" and I always found it weird I scored so high.

But now that I think about it, a lot of the words towards the later half of the test were latin-derived words that are uncommon in English and used almost exclusively in a technical or formal register, while their equivalent cognate in Spanish has a similar meaning but is much more common in everyday use, and that's why a lot of them which would have probably been relatively unfamiliar to a lot of native English speakers seemed completely familiar and intuitive to me.

"males and females" "AFABs and AMABs" "TMEs and TMAs" "You're TME, you'll never understand how scary it is to be a girl with a penis in the women's bathroom" (said to me, person who was literally beat up in middle school for being a girl with a penis in the girl's bathroom) "AMABs can never get cervical cancer, that's an AFAB only thing" "they won't let trans kids have hormones, but they'll give them to cis kids for free" "you can't be cis and trans at the same time" you can't be transfem and transmasc" "You can't be transfem if you were AFAB" "You can't be transmasc if you were AMAB" "RMAB and RFAB? Now you're just making things up" "All intersex people are biologically nonbinary" "I want to transition into intersex" "I'm such a b*eddel/f*ta/h*rm" "You're intersex? I'm so jealous, that means you get an easier transition right?" "I wish I was intersex, then I could get myself pregnant" "Trans people are brain intersex" "So what does it look like?"

also idea: catty’s family are a bit antsy around Ramb since like a cat vs dog thing.

YESS THATS SO COOL what a fun lil headcanon... thinking about it.

@everything-you-feel-is-real I know by tumblr tradition that I'm to say "impossible, my posts never blow up like that," or "please don't do this to me."

also experimenting a new coloring style, sort of- usually i rely on layer modes/filters to make the character blend with the background, this time i picked the color based on the background colors instead of the reference colours... if that makes any sense-

pure colour theory i guess, fuck it i ball

also some extra doodles before i started making the comic. I wanna design flowery fixed up but still a bit beated up after ch 5 instead of just... idk... normal flowery

Bounce light is something I didn't cover but I adore it!

To achieve this effect in practice, I find it easiest to work from the light source as a base. I might inch the hue slider a bit towards the object color if I am okay with there being a range of colors in my light source (this is most often the case, otherwise it's monochrome and not interesting in the way we're after here), I will inch my hue just a tad in the direction of the object, and I will knock the object color towards the grays to compensate the rest of the way. If the object color is very different from the light source, it's going to get more gray and less hue shift from the light source, while an object that is closer to the light source ranges will get to be closer to its original hue and less gray.

For example, if I have a red object in cyan light, I'm not going to do much of anything to the hue since they're on opposite sides of the wheel and instead I will just drop the red to gray. If it's a very saturated red it's going to be a darker gray. If I have a yellow object, though, I'll inch the hue from cyan to maybe something a bit greener, and I'll only drop the saturation a little bit. It'll look strange if you're just starting out, but once you get more colors in it will be more cohesive. They are relative to one another, after all!

Tl;dr Most solid colored objects by and large scatter light as opposed to transmitting or emitting it, which means that they are responding to colors in the light source. If you don't have a suitably matching color in your source, your object won't respond by being the color you expect it to!
