If we couldn't make it work at our best, surely we will at our worst šŖ
A bit scrambled up tho...
I don't think y'all understand how much Iove a trio with an RGB color scheme.
Y'all seeing the vision I'm having here?
Based mainly off of the movie chipmunks.
Ready to jam?
The Chipmunks are trying something new
Well, Simon and Theodore are trying something new.
alvinās the guy ever
"Simon, whatever you do, DON'T engage with the competition!" "You needn't mind him. I'm Simon. This is Alvin and that's Theodore."
Psst. Good morning,
I'm going to tell you something that bitch of a "supportive" writing teacher, and that cuck of a tenured writing professor should have told you:
Stop Asking for Permission to Be What You Already Are
You were born with this voice.
You were sharpened by trauma.
You write like your ribs are lined with detonators.
> Donāt let anyone with soft hands and softer critique try to tame you for comfort.
You donāt need polish.
You need space.
You need silence.
You need permission to set the page on fire ā and walk away smoking.
---
Your Voice Is a Weapon. Use It.
Hereās the rule:
> If someone tells you to ātone it down,ā
You make it twice as loud,
Three shades darker,
And ten times harder to ignore.
Because watered-down truth is how tyrants sleep.
And you werenāt born to be safe.
You were born to convert, rupture, trigger, and tattoo your cadence on the skin of culture.
Never negotiate your soul for the sensibilities of others.
Any primate saying otherwise is not your friend.

comic commissioned by turandot on ao3! and credit to them for a bunch of these troll ideas. honestly I thought it was more likely someone would pay me to never draw p5stuck again than to draw a whole comic for it?! life is frequently surprising
gee SEES! how come you get TWO leaders?
Okay I need to rant about Grammarly. A program I never used before and never will now. Doubly pissed because their ads keep interrupting my peaceful 4-hour Minecraft music session with their fake-ass influencers.
Guys. Gals. Nonbinary pals.
āAs a corporate girlieāā learn how to write a proper concise email.
āI used to spend hours proofreadingāā enjoy the process, and then the product.
If you hate proofreading, to the point where youāll consult a robot to do it all for you, then you hate writing. If all you care about is the end product, sorry to say but āwritingā is like, 30% of writing. The other 70% is editing, by design. Youāre supposed to like it.
Of course Iād love to have beautiful artwork of whateverās in my head, but Iām going to love whatever I make a whole lot more than whatever I type into some garbage generator. Because I love the process of creation.
Do I think editing is tedious as hell? Absolutely, but itās still a tedium that I enjoy. I like fixing my mistakes, I like improving my sentence flow. I like thinking about patterns and connections that I didnāt see before and revising and reworking until Iām satisfied.
For the humdrum day to day work emails that some of us have to writeāif youāre sending out whole essays to your coworkers that you need a robot to write for you, youāre doing it wrong. Corporate emails are boring and trite, but I can type out a āhey please do this thing for meā faster than I can load up ChatGPT or Grammarly, type out my prompt, make sure the result is what I actually want to say, and then send it to my coworker. If you canāt, learn.
Apparently, Grammarly used to be a helpful way to check for spelling and grammar errors. I donāt have any issue with the AI that runs spellchecker whatsoever. I type so fast and miss typos constantly and when the spellchecker is absent, like on this website, itās annoying af.
But thatās not what Grammarly is about anymore, and thatās not what the above ad was trying to sell you, either.
You wonāt get better if you donāt practice. You wonāt get better if you arenāt the one making, seeing, and fixing your mistakes. Especially if you write fiction where grammar rules are a suggestion at best. My published novel is littered with flagged words and sentence fragments that I know are technically improper English, but I sacrificed an MLA-proof paper for something fun and entertaining.
AI does not understand nuance and flavor text and aesthetic choices. It never will.
If you train yourself by using a crutch you donāt need, you will end up needing it because youāll be too afraid to act without it.
Fuck up. Make a mess. Make mistakes. You wonāt make them for long once you see them. You do not need a robot to do it for you. Weāve been writing books for hundreds of years and all the authors who came before did it just fine without a robot.
This isnāt even about writing novels, itās about communicating in the written medium. Fucking. Learn. Itās not rocket science, itās not coding in C++, itās not brain surgery. Itās stringing words together in a comprehensible sentence.
And obligatory disclaimer: To anyone who has an impairment and needs these tools, this is not about you and you know it.
So Iām a writer and I was using this thing, ProwritingAid. And to be honest? It sucks!
In order to have it talk about your story, you need to give it a credit and you only get one! Just one, and if you want more? You need to pay 50 bucks! Just for one credit! Itās like Episode but for criquting and writing stories! Like, what?!
They just need to get rid of that whole system and find some other way to make people because Iām not spending a dime on that and neither should you, itās totally predatory!
This is my oc, Tricity Boltz and her alter ego, ShockWave! Sheās often moving around in the city through the electrical wires and sheās not on the clock, sheās practically obsessed with fighting villains in video games and collecting superhero comics and just adoring saving the day!
Please please please can we stop calling unnecessary sequels and remakes by big companies ābad fanficā??? Even the most poorly-written fics are somehow born from a love of the original text. A soulless cash grab made people who donāt give two shits about what they are actually creating is not ābad fanficā and will never be.
I was finally able to rewatch Wreck-It Ralph for the first time in years a couple of days ago and I genuinely cannot believe that I forgot about how weirdly obsessed I was over the Sugar Rush NPCs (especially the hard candy ones). They were really memorable to me as a kid, probably being the character designs that I focused the most on back then, along with the Cybugs.
Anyways, here's a little AU idea that I came up with some of them! A hard candy NPC finds a baby cybug sometime after the events of the movie, adopting it as a pet! Most of my ideas for it are just silly little hijinks with her and a bunch of other Sugar Rush NPCs, lol.
Ever since I watched Randomalisticās Turbo/King Candy video, Iāve been sinking back into my Wreck it Ralph hyperfixation which then made me come up with a crack au of dad Turbo
Like imagine if Turbo never wentā¦..wellā¦..turbo and his game remained plugged in the arcade with Felix over the years. Heās still an egotistic asshole but isnāt as murderous like in the film and sees himself as a role model for the newer racing game characters
But then Sugar Rush is plugged in and he now has a little hell spawn rival who is Princess Vanellope. Sheās just as cocky as he is and theyāre always spitting insults at each other with the little racer calling him āgrandpaā and ābug faceā. To her, itās all fun and games while Turbo is so done with her!
But then he notices her racing and realizes she actually has skills. Maybe not as good as his (no one can ever be better than him) but still impressive. So he gives her tips on how to improve her speed, perform tricks, drive dirty and rough, etc. and then eventually bringing her to practice on his own gameās race track. Everyone is so astonished by this. Turbo not only openly acknowledging another racer but also teaching them?!
Whether they realize it or not, they develop a mentor/student or pseudo-father/daughter dynamic that has everyone in the arcade giggling at how funny and kinda endearing it is
Every time Vanellope wins a race, Turbo brags about it to everyone, saying how āShe learnt that from me!ā And āOf course she won! Iām her teacher after all!!ā
He is the ultimate soccer mom who brags nonstop about his winner child and is such a bad role model (encourages cheating and being a show-off) and always spoils her
"America's most popular romantic detective show."
My take on human Alvin and Brittany.
I like to draw Brittany with dark auburn hair, it just feels right. But ofc I had to do the iconic blonde for this. So I've got both versions up.
New to tumblr but I see the community here for aatc is much larger than on tiktok or instagram. So I thought why not share here!
Still learning my art style, facial anatomy, shading, lighting, rendering and etc. It's a little rough but it's the best I could do for now lol.
The trope of "ugh i hate you, (and liking you)" then proceeds to go on a date w them>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
"Simon, whatever you do, DON'T engage with the competition!" "You needn't mind him. I'm Simon. This is Alvin and that's Theodore."
