I think I've been watching too many animatics recently. When I listen to music, like The Material, I keep seeing a cartoon animatic going along with the song in my head. Especially the song Let You Down.
lunamoonlight I love animatics tho, there are some good YT artists.
I was watching an animatic video, and it had a demon dude in it and was mildly Satanic but only if you read the description. The funny part about that is that someone wih the username Jesus Christ was in the comments and said "don’t worry, even yours truly came for the thumbnail". I- i can't... im laughing so hard i am shaking right now.
lunamoonlight I just found out that the animator is on wattpad and so are the characters.. so anyway, on a related note, im gonna go read some BL now-
Poll-
Do I make my posts too long, and do y'all read them?
cactuspot12 No, i do read them
Emelyisaway sometimes i don't because of my terrible attention span lol
tacoboi i read liek 25 percent od=f them
JD2005 I read 'em most of the time.
A friend in Robotics- If you want to be smart, get ADHD, and hope you become interested in academic subjects *semi-joking*.
Me- I have ADHD and am interested in art and mythology.
Friend- I am so sorry for you.
Lol. I get interested in weird stuff and research it a bunch. Vampires, demons, lamias, mythology, artists, fandoms, etc. Probably why I know the difference between nagas and lamias, know who Vlad Tepes was, know who Abagail Larson is, know most Greek gods and goddesses, know every ship for everything I watch/read, but I don't know how to make an essay, code other than blocks, do the maths, or who founded Georgia in what year.
cactuspot12 1732. James Oglethorpe
cactuspot12 could not make that name up even if i wanted to
lunamoonlight Lol, name is familar. I have been learning about the colonies in SS. Oglethorpe. Historians couldn't make that up.
Question- What do the beginning stages of art look like?
No one-
Seriously, no one-
Me-
lunamoonlight My digital line art is uh... not great. I use a touchpad mouse for goodness sake, it's gonna look like this.
lunamoonlight Plus, it's Sketchpad
lunamoonlight Reminds me of a meme dude tho
GemHeart Noooo it’s true lol
tacoboi it sorta does
JD2005 It's true, lol. 😂
ammyk *When you realize that's what your finished work looks like.* Heh heh...
The Material is really good, listening to their What We Are album. Specifically, the song Let You Down.

So here we are again
And you're thinking that you've won
And I, I still can't recognize the person that you've become
Will you look and see what you've done to me?
I've been crying on the floor
Can you hear me now as I'm walking out?
I won't take this, take this anymore
I didn't mean to let you down
I didn't mean to call you out
I didn't mean to spread your little secrets all around
I didn't mean to walk away when you were lying to my face
I didn't mean to turn right back and put you in your place
Or, maybe I did.
Oh, so you're an actor now?
Like guess our story was just pretend
And I, I bet your arrogance
It gets you in the end.
Did you think that I wouldn't realize?
You played me for a fool
How do you feel now?
Everyone found out and we all know the truth
About you.
I didn't mean to let you down
I didn't mean to call you out
I didn't mean to spread your little secrets all around
I didn't mean to walk away when you were lying to my face
I didn't mean to turn right back and put you in your place
Or, maybe I did.
You should've seen your face when I walked out
I let the words fall out of my mouth
It would've felt so good to pull the curtain down
No one believes you now.
I didn't mean to let you down, no. . .
I didn't mean to let you down
I didn't mean to call you out
I didn't mean to spread your little secrets all around
I didn't mean to walk away when you were lying to my face
I didn't mean to turn right back and put you in your place
Or, maybe I did.
Maybe I did, yeah
Oh, maybe I did.
Along with the fact that my literary analysis essay for English isn't even mostly my own words, I hate having to have it in one specific font and size and spacing. I like choosing my own depending on what I'm doing. I've I'm writing a story, I use Alice or Lora font, a dark color, whatever font size looks normal, and I use Justify, and the spacing is normal. Informal things are done in a cool looking font, whatever size is readable, bright colors, and left-right aligned, and I never mess with the spacing. Essays MUST be Times New Roman (*cough* BASIC *cough* I hate Times New Roman and Arial), must be 12 font (tiny), must be left-right aligned (Justify looks more professional), and cannot be any color, it can't even be turned full black, just the basic dark grey color, and it has to be double-spaced. I get it's just the way MLA format is, but it's so boring. We don't even learn other forms of citing, everything is MLA 8. It's supposed to look "confident and professional", but honestly, the spacing makes you look like you can't write a lot so you used spacing to make it longer, the font size makes people need glasses, the left-right alignment is used in everything and Justify is closer to the look of a published book, and Times New Roman is so basic no one would even notice if it were Times New Roman or something else.
lunamoonlight Just me ranting about fonts
cactuspot12 Lol
KnightStar I adore times new roman, teachers have good taste
KnightStar but lora is the best tbh
lunamoonlight I use Lora and Alice when writing stories and things with a professional look. I use Lora, Alice, Pathway Gothic One or something along the lines for poems. I use random fonts for informal stuff like Online Students, and I hate using Ariel, Times New Roman, Courtier New whatever, and such because they are the most basic, boring, and overused fonts.
lunamoonlight I like Shadows Into Light as well, it was one of my first favorites.
I've been making stories in my head out of a game of Solitaire I'm playing. Scroll if you don't care, but it's kinda cool.
Alright, so since kings are the base card at the bottom, they are the point of the story. If any card is black, it represents more of a colder personality, with little heart or humanity, meanwhile, a red card represents a soul, a warm personality who is giving to others. This applies to kings, queens, and jacks. Number cards represent the struggles of jacks (who are pretty much princes) in their life. Whatever the two for the stack is, it represents how Jack turned out in the end, good or evil. If you start a stack with a king and then add a queen, then a jack, then the king had an arranged marriage and kid. A king, then queen and jack, makes it so that the queen already had the kid prior. Starting with a king and queen, then adding a jack with one or more number cards means the kid was adopted and already had some struggles in their life. You can create some interesting stories with it. Hearts are the kindest people, diamonds are very kind, not as much as hearts though, spades are cruel, clubs are very cold-hearted not to the point of cruelty, however. Aces and the final part of the game where you win I haven't decided yet, maybe everyone dies, or if you lose, everyone dies prematurely.
lunamoonlight And whenever you put a king on an empty space, it's him obtaining the throne. If he was there to begin with, he gained the throne hereditarily, but if you put him on the space, the people elected him as a ruler.
cactuspot12 Hmm, interesting
CrispyPlop I like this. Sometimes I do this with random objects
lunamoonlight Mhm. I got bored, was in a writing mood, and thought of how to create a story out of something like that
ammyk Wow.
