she’s so cute!!

Another try at my fem merlin since my style has changed a bit. This time with a closer study of Colin Morgan's facial features. Can't decide what hair she would have but i think this shorter style would be good towards the beginning of the series and it grows out over time. Maybe she got something in it and had to cut it off?

Also really tried to think up a distinct sillhoutte for her that would be distinctive from Morgana and Gwen but still fit the shows medieval-ish aesthetic. Still cant decide how to encorporate the neckercheif in a way that still looks cute and not like shes a cowboy....

Every year I spend most of my vacations on my own. Not exactly by choice, but also not because I lack the possibility of choosing. I do have friends and I want to see them and they want to see me. But I simply forget to make plans. Like, I’m so invested on bettering myself! I want to read all the books my friends recommended and watch all the movies and learn to play all the songs! I want to get into poetry and also learn more about rap so I can share my loved ones’ interests! I want to move more and also eat healthy and cook and bake and sew and dance and sing and paint! So in the end I try to do all of those and forget to make plans, so I end up isolated inside my house, which is kind of terrible for my mental health. It kind of backfires.

And when I feel lonely, I want to have people with me right now, not make plans for the next week. So I don’t make plans, and the next week I end up feeling lonely again. But calling and asking who has time now would come off as too needy, wouldn’t it? I’m sure everyone else is busy, and I don’t want to be rejected, so I end up not even asking.

Idk. Does anyone else feel like this?

Coming into a fandom late

I feel like this happens often with music and arts. People only listens to the cute, romantic songs, or don't actually pay attention to the lyrics and the actual message, which is imo kinda disrespectful to the author.

"How sad it's that people suffers, but maybe they'll be happy even in adversity", but that's the thing. They! Shouldn't! Be! Suffering! And in the arts that can reflect at these tragic, lovely stories; but it's on us to actually think those over critically. Every story that gets told gets told for a reason. So, please, if you have the time, try to choose a random song you like and think about it. I promise it'll be worth it.

🙃 Regular reminder that while Hozier has amazing love songs, he is ALSO very outspoken about his leftist politics, specifically anti-fascism, anti-racism, reproductive rights, Palestinian rights and more.

Take Me To Church and Foreigner’s God are scathing critiques of organized religion, specifically the Catholic Church and the colonization of Ireland.

Moment’s Silence is about oral sex but it’s ALSO about how that specific sexual act is often distorted to a show of power rather than that of love.

Nina Cried Power is an homage to various (mostly Black) civil rights activists from the US and Ireland and a call to follow their path.

Be criticizes anti-migrant policies and Trump and his ilk.

Jackboot Jump is about the global wave of fascism and about protest and resistance.

Swan Upon Leda is about reproductive rights and the violent colonial oppression of Ireland and Palestine.

Eat Your Young is about the ruinous way the 1%/capitalism and arms dealers prioritize short-term profit over everything else to the detriment of the youth/99%

Butchered Tongue is about Irish and other indigenous languages being suppressed and erased by imperial powers.

If any of the above surprised you, please, please delve deeper into Hozier’s music, you’re missing such an important part of his work.
