I forgot to post this after i finished those furby ones...
the great thing about izuku midoriya is. he is just vibrating with indescribable energy. at all times he is the way i am after seven cups of coffee. he is always inhabited by the kind of manic drive that most people only glance at during a life-changing nervous breakdown in middle school. the only thing tethering him to this world and preventing him from flinging himself straight into the sun is probably his love for his mom. he is unrestrained by concepts like “pain” or “reality”. this little man has never met a lick of common sense in his life. when all might inevitably dies of old age izuku will physically transport himself and successfully fistfight god for his soul
I can't get over your art. On bad days I just go to your profile and giggle at your art because omg. It's wonderful and fun and I love it. <333
Tysm!
Have an old doodle of Tsuyu coming to the rescue
One of the most important things to unpack and unlearn when you’re part of a white supremacy saturated society (i.e. the global north) and especially if you were raised in an intensified form of it (evangelicism, right wing politics, explicit racism) is the urge to punish and take revenge.
It manifests in our lives all the time and it is inherently destructive. It makes relationships and interactions adversarial for no good reason. It undermines cooperation and good civic order. It worsens some types of crime. It creates trauma, especially in children.
Imagine approaching unexpected or unacceptable behavior from a perspective of "how can this be stopped, and prevented" instead of "you’re going to regret this!”
Imagine dealing with a problem or conflict from the perspective of “how can this be solved in a way that is just and restorative” instead of “the people who caused this are going to pay.”
How much would that change you? How much would that have changed for you?
happy pancake day 🥞
I get the impulse to project parent/child type relationships onto characters but sometimes the dynamic you're thinking of is Mentorship
this is the worst thing ive ever done
so few people understand the art of the pseudo nap
u ever think abt how bnha has two characters who have been confirmed, canonly, to hurt children for their causes, and since one is a hero he gets to have a redemption arc but because the other is a villain, he has his arms mercilessly torn off and his whole life’s work stolen. i mean he deserves it lmao but it’s wildly a double standard in a rly meta way. like, sure, you could say the message is that “one is inherently a good person, thus he chooses to redeem himself, and that’s what makes him deserving of being a hero,” but that ultimately cannot be separated from the fact that he was introduced first and foremost as (1) a hero, and (2) a domestic abuser, and we can’t pretend that there is no personal code of ethics associated with being a hero in bnha that isn’t imposed by its own author. essentially what i’m saying is that there is a good moral judgment placed on being a hero and a bad moral judgment placed on being a villain by the narrative itself, and we can’t ignore that it influences the way these two stories are written. because heroes are good and there’s moral goodness associated with heroism, all faults of heroes no matter how heinous must be shown as worthy of redemption, because they deserve it by being heroes. it’s not because of who he is as a person that the narrative decides to give him this chance, it’s because of what his job is. villains, on the other hand, are forever tainted by their villainy and are not worthy of second chances, they should be immediately and soundly punished. and u kno what that just sounds super real for a sec🤔🤔
