Since I’m Sick, Could You Guys Please Give Me Some Doodle Requests For Characters That I Should Draw

HE DIDN'T I THINK WHAT WHERE DID HIS BROWN EYES GO

Am I insane or did SNW Kirk not originally have blue eyes

Just two characters clinging onto their logic while inevitably slipping more and more into emotions by surrounding themselves with humans, yep, don’t see any connection there🥸

I think Hank would probably show Connor Star Trek at some point and Connor would certainly have something to relate to with Spock I think

If I may offer some of my own interpretation for why this is supposed to be degrading:

First of all, it makes it harder for the guards to sympathize/empathize with them, which leaves them with even less hope to get out and leads to them being treated harshly consequently, which is degrading. And the android looks play their part in that even if it wasn't something that they'd personally see as degradation. (Of course the guards would be doing their jobs anyway but it leaves no room for tricks, no room to even try to pretend to be a human, no room for one of the guards to show weakness and question what they're doing.)

Most obviously: they're being forced to do something. They didn't just go "ah wait actually let me remove my skin rq it was getting kinda uncomfortable anyway", the guards ordered them (mind you, the androids they caught that *were* deviants had been trying to *escape* getting ordered around and now they'd be ordered to do something (something that would lead to their doom too) again, except this time it's not even just "in their program" to blindly follow orders. This time they're being threatened and forced to do something against their will.) It wouldn't even matter if they wouldn't usually mind doing this, being forced to do something and remain in that state in order to not be killed is degrading.

Another aspect is that androids live with their skins being turned on. At least so far I have seen no instance of them turning it off just for the sake or "looking their true self" or anything like that, Markus did it in the tower for the sake of not being recognized as easily and yes, probably also to represent androids, but I've seen no other android do that voluntarily. Of course one could argue that that's because they need to fit into the human society, but even in their safe haven they remained with their skins turned on. Noone in Jericho seemed to think "Ah finally, I'm away from the humans and amongst other androids now, let me show my true form in peace", of course that can all just be because they're in the middle of a revolution, but saying that "they're like that", without acknowledging that they in fact do not spend most of their time "like that" doesn't really seem like a strong argument to me. I understand what you mean and I agree that under different circumstances their non-human designs wouldn't be degradation, but these circumstances make all the difference here.

Furthermore, it creates uniformity. All of the androids in the camps look exactly the same, except for male and female body shapes and the one kid, Alice, maybe their eye color and facial shape if we're looking into details up-close. But if we're just seeing the camps as they are, it's just a bunch of androids that can be lumped up and killed row by row. Even if they weren't as connected to their human looks, their identity still gets stripped away by making them look uniform. Yes, that is what they look like, but no, I do not mean their "humanity" when I'm referring to their "identity". I mean their individual looks that keep them from just becoming one big mass to the humans.

Additionally to that: Androids seem to have a certain connection to their skin. Think about North and the android that was the same model as her, they have been living their lifes with these skins and I honestly find it hard to imagine them not having built any kind of connection to the looks they'd gotten used to at all. And then having that be taken from them forcibly and having to see no mercy in the way the guards perceived them... That is degradation.

And last but not least: these camps are supposed to mimick concentration camps. So they did the equivalent of shaving their hair off and taking their autonomy, individuality and hope. Taking the last bit of similarity to humanity (of course not actual humanity in the case of the androids, but similarity, which is the only way these humans would've understood and not been able to ignore that they are alive too, by seeing their resemblance) any human could see in them and sending them to die. The most important part of this degradation is their death becoming inevitable and looming over them as the humans give them orders they can't fight against and the panic about the upcoming destruction rising as they're forced to do something themselves that'll move them one step closer to their death.

I've got no intention of arguing much further here though, just thought I'd share my thoughts on this too, hope you have a nice day

I just finished Detroit Become Human for the first time and I’m in desperate need to talk about it

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO THE WORLD'S GREATEST DETECTIVE!!!! 🥳

SHERLOCK HOLMES 171 YEARS !!!

Will forever love their choice of animating the SNW intro for the crossover episode, I got so psyched about it when I first saw it and I’m still so happy about it :]

SH&Co. Black Peter Part 1 SPOILERS (+ slight spoilers for the game SH Crimes and Punishments?)

I stopped what I was doing and audibly gasped when they mentioned the harpoon, because I was like "Is this what I think it is??" And the more they kept describing the scene the more I realized that I'VE COME INTO CONTACT WITH THIS CASE THROUGH THE FROGWARES GAME "SHERLOCK HOLMES: CRIMES AND PUNISHMENTS" BEFORE, it's actually the first case you solve in that game and I hadn't recognized it by just the name "Black Peter" alone, but as soon as the harpoon came in the switch flipped and I was like "OHHH IT'S *THAT* CASE???" I'm still confused about the religious stuff that's been hinted at so far though, since as far as I remember, that part wasn't in the game👀

I also don't remember every single detail from the game version of this case though, so I'm excited to find out how they'll do this🦫

Picked up crocheting purely because of a neat Connor pattern I saw on Etsy and got the urge to make it, so now I've been working on this since yesterday and am attempting crochet for the second time ever (the first time my best friend and I gave up at some point because I kept doing something wrong and we couldn't figure out what it was [I think it was just simple line stuff]) so this is my very first actual crochet project and I dare say it's been going relatively/quite well👀

another one from Instagram :]

I’ve really gotta continue this series man👀

also ik this is just the sketch but his actual blanket being the colors of the Union flag is pretty funny to me

The best (or worst) movie adaptations of book scenes? (Sherlock Holmes, etc, anything) (hw help)

Hello everyone, I am having to prepare to write a speech for my literature class concerning the quality of movie adaptations of novels. So I wanted to ask: Do you guys have any adapted scenes that you found remarkable in some way? Preferably a good one, but bad examples are welcome too of course🫡

Maybe a scene from Arthur Conan Doyle‘s canon that often gets left out but you find important? Or a scene that you thought a certain adaptation absolutely nailed or really just butchered? I am specifically referring to specific scenes here and *not* to overall series’ or movies. Please do tell me about what you find remarkable in relation to the original novels, I would really appreciate any help with this as I’d started to look for examples a bit late so I only have today and tomorrow to gather them🧍‍♂️

This doesn’t have to concern Sherlock Holmes, it can also be about Harry Potter, etc., anything really, I just used that as an example since I plan on using Holmes as a reference/example for my thesis anyway.

Fast replies would be much appreciated, as I don’t really have any idea where to even start right now :,)

Here's some Truman show fanart cause I recently watched that movie :)
