people portraying ghost as an abusive, cold-hearted and emotionless person is actually so sad... did we even play the same game? he obviously cares about soap and his other teammates
at this point just say y'all don't understand traumatized people. having trauma doesn't always make a person act horrible towards others, ghost is just very blunt and probably has issues with trusting people
but still, he's actually really nice to soap, throughout the campaign he's making lots of jokes and calling him "johnny". only he calls him that. also he literally put his military career on hold to help his brother quit drugs, even though he was bullied by him when they were kids
do you really think that same man would let himself treat others like shit when he spent his whole childhood being abused? he would hate himself if he did that, because then he would be just as horrible as his father
so for the love of god stop acting like he's some monster that hates everyone around him 💀 yeah, it might take him a while to warm up to people but that's expected considering what he went through

Very happy to finally post my second tutorial ! You guys have been so kind the last time and I really hope this helps some of you in your art path 🙇♀️
“do it for the vine” = allow yourself to live life in the moment instead of maintaining a facade of normalcy for the enjoyment of not only yourself but of those around you
“commit to the bit” = adhere to the guidelines of an event that will in retrospect be nothing but a minuscule footnote, but continue to execute it for the complex web of happiness it brings you and your collective now
“fuck it we ball” = get the most you can out of life by putting the very thrill of being alive first and everyday occurrences and responsibilities last
I forgot I have to be active here so here’s my Twitter tutorial on how to draw folds I made a while back to help a friend!
funerals are- a way to cope, to put our grief in sensible frame, to help process what is impossible to process together with other people and to put an end to a chapter, in a way. to be able to start to love the rest of your life after a loss. it's a ritual.
none of us will be able to go to Techno's funeral, and that's a good thing - hell, no cementary would fit over 10 milion people - but it's okay if you need a ritual of your own to honor him, to help yourself, to help each other through this.
in few days, if you need to spend a day watching his videos, or talking to a friend about Techno, laugh, cry, reminiscence, build a shrine on your minecraft world - that's okay. that's not parasocial, that's human. you are allowed to grieve even if you've never met a person - he changed the lives of so many people for the better, we didn't know him but we did know the part of him that he wanted to share. we were allowed to love him.
and at the end of the day he loved us enough to not let us mourn him without knowing his name.
GG, Technoblade. you've played the game well and we will never forget you.
This is sort of a weird question but do you have any tips on writing a college essay? I feel so stuck with mine and it’s frustrating me to no end 😭😭
It's super dependant upon what you're writing about, my friend. Is it an argumentative essay? Expository? Persuasive? There needs to be a structure and a plan for every paragraph. My biggest problem was not planning my essays structure.
You have the intro, sure but what the fuck are you gonna open with? You wanna put your topic sentence in there. Explain exactly what the fuck this is about and what you're going to discuss and HOW.
Number each paragraph and write down what you want that paragraph to be focusing on.
It'd called outlining your essay and here's a good link on how to do it.
Once you have your outline, it's about filling in the blanks with pretty words. Like drawing a picture, doing all the line work and all you have to do now is colour it in. No matter how many times you fuck up, you still have that line work.
That's how I got through my essay writing anyway.
this is why I do creative writing instead 😂 essays suck aaaaassss
Hey there, art advice anon again! Your tips have been very helpful, especially the idea that you just have to keep trying until you find the right combination of lines. Thank you!
Do you have any advice on drawing facial expressions?? I’m autistic and I have a really hard time with them.
Howdy again, and sorry for the delay! Not sure how well some of this advice would translate into different styles, this is just what works for me.
Expressions are hard! There's a lot of nuisance and subtle differences between them, and a lot of different expressions share similar features. Ya just have to play around with them.
There are a lot more things that can all help convey emotion, that aren't just limited to the face, like posing and angling, but I focused solely on expressions, here.
Anyway, I hope this helps at least a little :0!
wouldn't gliding be faster? || leoon || minor || i make art and i now play genshin ;D
