Hi, guys!
As you may know, I am Ukrainian. I live in Kyiv. I have lived here since I was born and I love my country with my whole heart.
I see a lot of misinformation under the tag "Ukraine". Most of it comes from American people, who try to explain the conflict in their own words. They can't. It's impossible to explain if you haven't lived here. There are too many influences on this conflict. You keep looking from an american perspective, which is not crucial in understanding the conflict.
For example, have you ever had you language forbidden? Like straight up forbidden by the law? It happened to Ukrainian language a lot of times thought our history. And who did it? The Russian Empire. And it's not the end of it. The genocides, the assimilation, the deportation. Have you even researched Ukrainian history?
You do not uplift Ukrainian voices enough. And you should if you care about what's happening. If you don’t do it, you're just doing a performance of your support and activism.
Lucky for you, I am a Ukrainian person! And I am DYING TO ANSWER YOUR QUESTIONS. I scored 191/200 points on my graduation exam in history, so you can suppose I know something about Ukrainian history.
If you stand for Ukraine, uplift Ukrainian voices. Educate yourself. Learn Ukrainian history. Ask Ukrainian people
@everyscript ah sorry just checked out your profile, of course I can make fanart! I’ve never done mandalorian, but I can try :D
Heyo! 💬 I wanted to ask: do you accept fan art for The Mandalorian? I have a little song that I made for Baby Yoda; would it be okay if I could share it to you? To signal boost it? ^_^
As in for me to draw or for me to repost?? :P
A speed draw of my Withered Bonnie post a few days ago
“So you’ll never guess what. I’m sitting in my therapist’s waiting room. Usually, there’s nobody around besides me in that room because my therapist likes to make sure everyone is spaced out.
This boy with a bright as heck pink jacket with flip flops, he walks in with what looks like his girlfriend from the way she’s comforting him. They sit in the chair across from me. I don’t mind the company, it’s just a bit awkward. So I decide to make some conversation. It’s nice to hear what others go through, you know?
So I ask the guy, “What happened for you end up here?”
This kid, he looks me straight in the eye with the most serious of faces, and says “I’m the son of an alien queen.” He doesn’t elaborate.
Not knowing what to say to that, I smile sympathetically and go back to playing angry birds while I wait. I don’t really know what happened to him, since he never came back.”
Steven Universe ended on a great note, but now I just really want a spinoff series about Steven travelling across America and inflicting his own brand of weirdness on people
“So this guy walks into the diner. I say ‘guy’ because I had no idea how old he was, he was either a very tall child or a babyfaced grandpa. He’s wearing a bright pink varsity jacket and flip-flops, and when he’s done breakfast he gives me a fifty-dollar tip on a five dollar breakfast. So now I’m thinking, ‘Oh, I gotta know more about this guy,’ and I ask him what he does for work.
“And this guy looks at me, and he looks like the oldest man in the world, and he says, and I quote, ‘I used to run a school but I retired because the stress was killing me,’ and walks out. I think about him maybe once a week.”

If you don't mind, I'd like advice on writing a kidnapping
Writing kidnappings
masterlist. main navigation.

Common purposes of kidnapping are :
• They require that person to achieve something
• The person has important information
• For ransom, to get something from another character
• For bait, to lure another character
Also, raise the stakes. This may seem trivial, but trust me, it helps. The readers won't care about the kidnapping if the stakes aren't high enough. Maybe the mcs will get lots of money or crucial information if they manage to kidnap someone. Or alternately, maybe something bad will happen if the mcs don't rescue the victim from their kidnappers on time.
Did the kidnappers have a messy plan - needing to break into a place, fight, and physically drag the victim out of there, which will make the kidnapping known to practically everyone, or did they have an elaborate plan where they drug the victim and smuggle them out through the sewers, so that nobody knew about the kidnapping until a few days have passed? How the kidnappers organize their kidnapping plan will say a lot about their personality and efficiency.
Another important aspect that will also help in the characterizations of the kidnappers is to decide how they will treat the victim. Antagonists will probably torture them - and might even finish it by killing them even after they give in. Protagonists might be more awkward, giving their prisoner food, and checking them once in a while.
But yk what? Screw bad guy and good guy norms. Why not spice it up? Make your antagonists terribble kidnappers, unconsciously striking small talk with the prisoners (yes, like Ming Hua and Ghazan to Mako and Bolin from tlok), while your protagonists ruthless and not hesitating to torture them.
Think about how the prisoner will react to being kidnapped. Will they cower in fear, or make snarky comments and not care about the situation? And during the interrogation, if there's any, will they immediately give in to save themselves or remain strong and keep their mouth shut? Will they try to escape at all, or simply accept their fate?
Or even better, they'll outsmart their kidnappers by pretending to strike a deal with them, only to betray that deal later (my personal favorite oml).
There are three possibilities on how friends and families will react to the victims being kidnapped :
1. They'll become distraught, willing to do anything to get the victim back, even if it means they'll play dirty. If you choose this option, there are more options to write about :
• They'll work together and become an even better team to rescue the victim.
• They'll let their emotions take over and start blaming one another, causing fights and the team to fall apart, which will make a rescue mission difficult.
• They'll strike a deal with another group of villains and work together to save the victim.
2. They won't even notice that the victim is missing, making the whole thing even sadder. A perfect example of this is the kidnapping of Klaus in TUA - none of his siblings noticed when he went missing, not even after he literally time traveled back and forth. Not to mention that when they heard that their brother had been kidnapped, their first thought was Five, not Klaus.
3. Even worse, they might know that the victim had been kidnapped, but they won't do anything about it - either because they don't care enough, or they prioritized their current missions over rescuing the victim. This one never fails to make me cry :"
Of course, you don't have to stick to one of these - you can always create a mixture of all three. Maybe most people won't notice the victim's disappearance, and those who did won't bother to do anything, but their closest friend was willing to do anything to rescue them.
