The issue with many "cozy" games is they're so vibes-focused, they lose sight of the CONTENT of the media they're emulating. Yes, "The Wind in the Willows" involves sitting around drinking tea, but it also includes such heartwarming episodes as "Mr. Toad steals a car" and "Rat and Mole meet God".
The image is of Wrathion and Anduin from World of Warcraft. It's a commission done by @riotbones for @ClaretAsh. The image is a 'poster' style piece, depicting several different images. At the top is Wrathion in profile. He's in shadow, being lit by a Titan prison level with his chest. Around his head are planets - in the front is Azeroth, then Argus, then a planet being devoured by void right at the back. Interestingly, around his neck are two rings on a necklace chain. In the foreground is Anduin in his current TWW/Midnight appearance. His head is haloed in light, and in his left hand, he holds Wrathion's ruby necklace. His pose is reminiscent of the 'sacred heart' devotion. His cloak flares out, and under it, it depicts two scenes. The first is Anduin and Wrathion as boys in Pandaria reading a large tome together. Beneath is a darker image of Wrathion in front of Ny'alotha, looking worriedly over his shoulder at Anduin, holding Shalamayne, surrounded by Alliance banners and war. Golden cracks run between them, as if Azeroth herself was breaking apart... ...You know I'm getting this printed as a poster! :3c

I think there's this generous idea that tessduin, and m/f ships in the WoW fandom in general, are inherently friendlier to women and less misogynistic just because there's a woman involved in the pairing and frankly these folks are just willfully ignoring how this actually shakes out in practice.
I never want to see anyone try to claim that tessduin is any less toxic or has a "nicer" community than wranduin ever again, y'all have always had the incels and tradwife enthusiasts congregating in your camp, maybe don't throw stones from glass houses
Some people have such a way with words
A digital illustration of two japanese lesbians flirting in a queer underground bar in the 80s. One of them wears a blue jacket, the other a suit, while in the background there's liquor and a multitude of little stickers and illustrations of lesbian and queer marks.
The full illustration I did for @taplingzines.bsky.social "We've Always Been Here"
The zine depicts queer couples throughout cultures and history and I had the honours of portraying a Japanese lesbian couple in an underground bar during the 80s✨

Wrong that cannot be repaired must be transcended.
People do this a lot with Interstellar, too. Look, I know Interstellar had research papers published from the sheer amount of math that went into its graphics but Interstellar is ultimately about love and how love is a force in its own right akin to gravity and time, the mechanics are secondary.
People get so lost in the mechanics because we're all nerds at heart but the mechanics in Inception are all a trap in the way that details of a dream can trap you. It makes so much sense until you wake up and try to explain it to someone else or write it down.
Inception isn't a puzzle to be solved, it's a *feeling* meant to be *felt*
The point is that the entire movie feels like a dream from start to finish, you're not *supposed* to be able to distinguish what's "real" from what's not. Cobb found a happy ending but we'll never know if it was all a delusion or not and we're not meant to know, the idea itself is beautiful.
Was feeling nostalgic for Inception so I took a look on YouTube to watch the ending again and the recommendation feed...oh man, look, if you're focused on trying to calculate if the top would've ever stopped or not you've lost the plot completely
For to keep dark the mind of the mageborn, that is a dangerous thing.
what if we kissed at the intersection of gore and intimacy
Olruggio and Qifrey sharing a kiss in front of a twilight sky. Olruggio has his right hand gently pressed into Qifrey's cheek so he can tilt Qifrey towards him.
i started reading the manga not long after the anime had been announced and ahhhh the anime has been so beautiful so far 🥺
been feeling some major burnout lately but i still really wanted to finish something with the gay dads

Medieval illumination style border of a sun on the left side and moon on the right, with illuminated text “east of the sun, west of the moon” at the very bottom and two red dragons in the center. The right panel is Marcille carried away on the back of Falin’s dragon form, which is only hinted at with white wings and a red tail while Sensei, Chilchuck, and Izutsumi look on, worried. The second panel is the scene of when the girl discovers the human form of the beast she is with with, in the case of Marcille seeing Falin’s human form. Marcille is dressed in a white billowy night gown, holding a candle over a sleeping Falin. The hot wax of the candle is about to fall upon Falin’s face. Above the bed is the head of the red dragon, with black curtains behind.
I can finally post this, hehe! My piece that I did for @storyindungeon.bsky.social ‘s dungeon meshi zine! I did one of my all time favorite fairytales with Falin and Marcille!

good post
I don’t think we killed Goddrick together? 🤔 The only other boss I have an achievement for is Margit. Maybe he was the last one we tried?
@claretash.bsky.social I don't even remember fighting this boss?? Did I pass out from fear or something while you kicked its ass???
I also want to dive into the lore and all of that as well, there's so much depth to this game
Restarting Elden Ring (I did not get very far the first time) Ex Voto has encouraged me, I am on a quest to see if I can truly Get Good™️ and reach 100% achievement completion here, too
Three ENTIRE apples... 🥲
"I'm new to the world but how hard can it be?" "Those who aid me will be rewarded...when I'm bigger 😤" They're all SO cute, oh man. Two entire blueberries 🫐 💙
He's SO tiny and precious, I can't even believe it, 10/10 would defend with my life as a rogue of Ravenholdt 💕
Maybe WoW and its social media team have just set my bar so low that it's buried underground but it's surprising and refreshing to me when there's Wrathion humor that isn't about Anduin punching him lol
I guess in every timeline he just pops fresh out of the shell ready to do business lmao
Ok, Hearthstone, I'm sorry, I take back everything mean I said about the Wrathion emote, I have tears in my eyes I'm laughing so hard
