Returning from twitter. Revamp in progress! Freelance Illustrator, Storyboard and Comic Artist. Nonbinary lesbian. She/They
Hear me out.
So it’s been a few years! I’ve been on twitter all that time and quite a lot’s happened. I lost my mum, graduated uni and started working as a freelance artist, came out as a non binary lesbian, got really into warcraft and been working on some original projects too!
As for going forward, I’ve been wondering if it’s worth nuking this blog and starting fresh… but maybe I should start an art only blog and leave this as a personal. Whatever I decide, I’ll use this as my main hub for people on twitter to find me for now!
I think it’s time I came crawling back. Hello again ❤️
Abolish unpaid internships, bring back apprenticeships.
“You don’t have to pay me, but I’m going to live with you from now on.”
The minimum apprentice wage in the UK is just short of £4 an hour. That’s nearly half the minimum wage. This has to cover accommodation, living and travel expenses since you can’t apply for student loans because you’re technically in employment. This includes London.
okay but the screenwriter for Thor: Ragnarok is obviously intimately aware of what it’s like to have siblings because like…the snake scene? Bickering at every opportunity? Throwing things at each other for no real reason? “You know this guy?” “I have no idea who this person is”? Smirking when your sibling does something cool because ‘nothing but respect for MY sibling’ and then turning around and punching each other in the face right afterward? Stabbing each other for fun and then going ‘oh come on you big baby, that didn’t even hurt’? The fucking ‘Get Help’ scene? Like bruh…that is some Truth in Hollywood right there
In honor of this post reaching 10K notes, I have more examples of Siblinghood Done Right in Ragnarok:
*parent leaves the area* “THIS IS ALL YOUR FAULT!”
“You’re just…the worst.”
*internally* bitch I am the only one that gets to kill my sibling back off!
That little conciliatory pat on the back Loki gives to Thor after Thor says “Jane and I dumped each other”
“I swear I left it right here”
*casually talking to each other about something mundane with the underlying threat of violence everpresent in both of your voices*
casual jibes and banter about the way each other dresses (“Why would I do that? I’m not a witch.” “Then why do you dress like one?”)
“YES! THAT’S WHAT THAT FEELS LIKE!”
but also the concealed worry about your sibling getting actually hurt, even though you know they’ll probably be fine
Loki’s extremely obvious eyerolling when those girls approach Thor in public and ask for a selfie
*sibling walks in while you’re trying to cause trouble and enjoy yourself* “oh shit”
The short involves Goofy doing domestic chores for his wife, which was an odd concept in the 1950′s. So based on the Milkman not knowing who he was kissing in this bit, it implies that Goofy’s wife was fucking the Milkman.
