dominopandaRebloggedpukichoFollowThere is literally nothing more powerful on this planet than taking a 15 minute walk twice every day. pukichoIf you have ADHD like me, walk 15 minutes twice a day like your life depends on it. opossumofdoomshould we not be on our phones during 15 minute walk, boss?pukichoThat phone is better off dead than in your hands. pukichoTake a musician's advice: without. austinthewiseBut... but it's cold...pukichoJacket pukichoThe purpose of The Walk is to factory-reset your brain from the effects of overstimulation. The fewer things hindering your ability to think is best. Music is an external influence on your brain. As great as it is, it still hinders self-motivated thought and blocks you from attuning to the outdoors as easily. Everyone's different, but that's me. 1306,32515,633

dominopandaRebloggedfoenixedFollowSeeing someone unknowingly critique amatonormativity in one post and then reinforce it in another is like ohhh... you have no theoretical framework to conceptualize the world around you so you're stuck running in circles. You instinctively gnaw at the bars of the cage you locked yourself in.dominopandaTheoretical frameork IS the cage and you don't want to brake it. Unless you're prepared to survive the chaos outside long enought to build a new one. People are willfully blind, you as well. Your blindspot is just in another place.#you condescending fool221490

dominopandaRebloggeddct239394cvvd098dffgggpto this day i cannot BELIEVE aang called up and blew off like nine avatars just because they didnt offer any vegan options to ending the war pikameme-dayoroku: my best friend assaulted me as a senior citizen :(kyoshi: sometimes some murder is OKkuruk: just punch people that disagree with youaang: okay i’m starting to think that none of you took this avatar thing seriouslyteeveewYou're not wrongaboutirohAang when he is told he’s the Avatar at age 12: *has a melt down because he understands the seriousness of this function and the consequences his new responsibilities will have on his personal life* other Avatars at age 16: I’m the avatar? Cool! Hey look it comes with a glowing eyes feature! aviculoraang: fuck this noise, i’ll get advice from the last air nomad avataryangchen: i gave up that hippie bullshit first chance i got, i love murderhedge-ramblesI will never not laugh at the bit where Aang is like "finally, an Air Nomad, you get me, right?" and Yangchen just says "sorry bud, I also vote murder".A close second on that note is of course the trial of Kyoshi in which she manifests in the courtroom just to say "Actually, I did murder him and I'd do it again. But consider: the bitch had it coming". kittyissac#tbh I think there's something to be said for the fact that Aang was 12 when he ran away from home#and how there's more than a bit of evidence that the adult airbenders had a less strict pacifistic approach#Aang was purposefully sheltered by Gyatsu to protect his childhood and so he has the ethics of a child#and when he awoke there were no other air nomads around to sit him down and have The Violence Talk#about how yes we're pacifists and murder is bad but there are exceptions#like Gyatsu was a kindly man of the highest order but uh#he didn't just lay down and die on a pile of skulls he just found#man went out taking like 20 fire nation soldiers with him#Aang: ''I could never kill! Gyatsu taught me to abhor all forms of violence“”#Gyatsu: deals out death to attacking soldiers like he's got a side hustle as a claymore minezarohkAnd the fact that he figures out a more technically complex and socially stable way to remove Ozai without making him a martyr just shows that he has a lot more skill at the problem at hand than most the previous ones.To me, that whole scene was very much the previous avatars saying “when all you have is a hammer” and Aang going “okay, but what can I do with this Swiss Army knife?” and they don’t give very useful advice about it.dominopandaWhat all this people are talking about????? 1. Aang is no podigy (airbending prodigy maybe), his spirit givng Korra powers back is litteraly Deus ex Machina as well as the lion turtle giving Aang spirit bending. Also Aang was told he's avatar at 12 instead of 16 because there was a war ahead and not because he's cooler then other avatars. 2. Aang ran away because nomad leaders were going to separate him from Gyatsu, the last person in his corner who pushed back against sacrificing Aangs life for the sake of the world. And it was impulsive and stupid move but that's ok because Aang is a CHILD. He was just a kid back then and he's still a kid in the series. He only fully embraces his Avatar duty by book 3 maybe and that's ok, that's good writing of a character growth. 3. The moral dilemma of killing Ozai is a complicated topic that writers could not fully expand on due to show's rating. The point of it, I think, is not that Aang found a better solution or that all other avatars are wrong (although they're shown to have flaws). It was to show the meaning of great responsibility that Avatar has. When your decisions literally affect the whole world you can't be selfish or biased about them. Roku spared Sozin because of their friendship, inadvertently leading to all this mess, and that's his biggest regret. Yangchen chastises Aang for holding air nomads pacifistic belives above all else because it's selfish. The lion turtle scene happens only after the fight comes to end to convince us that this is it, Aang has to acsept that saving the world is more important then saving your soul, and in some way he does, because energy bending is shown to be very dangerous. The scene where Aang's blue light is slowly cosumed by Ozai's orange is so epic! I wish they made energy bending look like this in Korra but whatever.TLDR: Go watch the entire show again and listed what it tells you this time!#reblog#rant#the op is right about vegan option#as well as hedge-rambles#this scene is so funny598,013101,086

dominopandaRebloggedkotori-mochiFollowCan't afford art school?After seeing post like this 👇And this gem 👇As well as countless of others from the AI generator community. Just talking about how "inaccessible art" is, I decided why not show how wrong these guys are while also helping anyone who actually wants to learn.Here is the first one ART TEACHERS! There are plenty online and in places like youtube.📺Here is my list:Proko (Free, mostly teaches anatomy and how to draw people. But does have art talks and teaches the basics.)Marc Brunet (Free but he does have other classes for a cheap price. Use to work for Blizzard and teaches you everything)Aaron Rutten (free, tips about art, talks about art programs and the best products for digital art)BoroCG (free, teaches a verity of art mediums from 3D modeling to digital painting. As well as some tips that can be used across styles)Jesse J. Jones (free, talks about animating)Jesus Conde (free, teaches digital painting and has classes in Spanish)Mohammed Agbadi (free, he gives some advice in some videos and talks about art)Ross Draws (free, he does have other classes for a good price. Mostly teaching character designs and simple backgrounds.)SamDoesArts (free, gives good advice and critiques)Drawfee Show (free, they do give some good advice and great inspiration)The Art of Aaron Blaise ( useful tips for digital art and animation. Was an animator for Disney. Mostly nature art)Bobby Chiu ( useful tips and interviews with artist who are in the industry or making a living as artist)Sinix Design (has some tips on drawing people)Winged canvas (art school for free on a verity of mediums)Bob Ross (just a good time, learn how to paint, as well as how too relax when doing art. "there are no mistakes only happy accidents", this channel also provides tips from another artist)Scott Christian Sava (Inspiration and provides tips and advice)Pikat (art advice and critiques)Drawbox (a suggested cheap online art school, made of a community of artist)Skillshare (A cheap learning site that has art classes ranging from traditional to digital. As well as Animation and tutorials on art programs. All under one price, in the USA it's around $34 a month)Human anatomy for artist (not a video or teacher but the site is full of awesome refs to practice and get better at anatomy)Second part BOOKS, I have collected some books that have helped me and might help others.📚Here is my list:The "how to draw manga" series produced by Graphic-sha. These are for manga artist but they give great advice and information."Creating characters with personality" by Tom Bancroft. A great book that can help not just people who draw cartoons but also realistic ones. As it helps you with facial ques and how to make a character interesting."Albinus on anatomy" by Robert Beverly Hale and Terence Coyle. Great book to help someone learn basic anatomy. "Artistic Anatomy" by Dr. Paul Richer and Robert Beverly Hale. A good book if you want to go further in-depth with anatomy. "Directing the story" by Francis Glebas. A good book if you want to Story board or make comics."Animal Anatomy for Artists" by Eliot Goldfinger. A good book for if you want to draw animals or creatures."Constructive Anatomy: with almost 500 illustrations" by George B. Bridgman. A great book to help you block out shadows in your figures and see them in a more 3 diamantine way."Dynamic Anatomy: Revised and expand" by Burne Hogarth. A book that shows how to block out shapes and easily understand what you are looking out. When it comes to human subjects."An Atlas of animal anatomy for artist" by W. Ellenberger and H. Dittrich and H. Baum. This is another good one for people who want to draw animals or creatures.Etherington Brothers, they make books and have a free blog with art tips.📝As for Supplies, I recommend starting out cheap, buying Pencils and art paper at dollar tree or 5 below. If you want to go fancy Michaels is always a good place for traditional supplies. They also get in some good sales and discounts. For digital art, I recommend not starting with a screen art drawing tablet as they are usually more expensive. For the Best art Tablet I recommend either Xp-pen, Bamboo or Huion. Some can range from about 40$ to the thousands.💻As for art programs here is a list of Free to pay.Clip Studio paint ( you can choose to pay once or sub and get updates. Galaxy, Windows, macOS, iPad, iPhone, Android, or Chromebook device. )Procreate ( pay once for $9.99 usd, IPAD & IPHONE ONLY)Blender (for 3D modules/sculpting, animation and more. Free)PaintTool SAI (pay but has a 31 day free trail)Krita (Free)mypaint (free)FireAlpaca (free)Aseprite ($19.99 usd but has a free trail, for pixel art Windows & macOS)Drawpile (free and for if you want to draw with others)IbisPaint (free, phone app ONLY)Medibang (free, IPAD, Android and PC)NOTE: Some of these can work on almost any computer like Clip and Sai but others will require a bit stronger computer like Blender. Please check their sites for if your computer is compatible.So do with this information as you will but as you can tell there are ways to learn how to become an artist, without breaking the bank. The only thing that might be stopping YOU from using any of these things, is YOU.I have made time to learn to draw and many artist have too. Either in-between working two jobs or taking care of your family and a job or regular school and chores. YOU just have to take the time or use some time management, it really doesn't take long to practice for like an hour or less. YOU also don't have to do it every day, just once or three times a week is fine.Hope this was helpful and have a great day."also apologies for any spelling or grammar errors, I have Dyslexia and it makes my brain go XP when it comes to speech or writing" 50571,06474,089
