characters who are so inauthentic. characters who only show what they want other people to see of them. characters who simply must have control over every part of themselves. do you even get it

I forgot I have to be active here so here’s my Twitter tutorial on how to draw folds I made a while back to help a friend!

Today, May 17th, would be Howard Ashman's 75th birthday. If you aren't already aware, Howard Ashman worked with Alan Menken to create the wonderful musical Little Shop of Horrors, which has had an undeniable affect on myself and my life. Ashman would go on to work with Menken on multiple Disney films; The Little Mermaid, Beauty and the Beast, and he even did a lot of early work for Aladdin. He sadly passed away in 1991, during the production of Beauty and the Beast.

Howard Ashman was primarily a lyricist, but he was also a very talented and passionate storyteller. He had such a strong grasp on what made a compelling musical, and in all of his work you can feel an earnest passion for what was created, I think. I personally have a lot of love for the stories him and Alan Menken have brought into the world.

I'd like to conclude my post with words posted today by Alan Menken himself:

Howard Ashman would have turned 75 today. And I'll always ponder what we might have shared and the new works we might have created together in those 35 extra years. Still I somehow know, deep in my heart, that his spirit has been an integral part of everything I've accomplished since his passing. Happy Birthday, Howard!

I actually do feel like the "unemployed friend on a Tuesday" meme actually helps de-stigmatize unemployment because it frequently affirms that when you don't have a job you're more likely to be getting up to some weird shit rather than just lazing around. But I also feel like the unemployed friend is frequently up to some random shit because there's a whole pile of miscellaneous life tasks that full-time employment keeps people from. The unemployed friend is helping their cousin move, or babysitting, or checking in with a neighbor with mobility issues. The unemployed friend is a walking thesis on the inflexibility of our current labor landscape and just how much work exists outside of work.

The older I get the less I can comprehend grown-ass adults being mean to kids, people in customer service, and especially teenagers in customer jobs. Saw some kid in a fast food place in an uniform that clearly stated "work training" and how I feel is almost exactly the same as seeing a little puppy in a harness that says "guide dog in training, do not disturb".

Like oh my god little baby has a job! Good job small baby!

I've rarely seen a more validating sentence in my entire life.

Look I love unconditional devotion love stories as much as the next person, but there's really something so deliciously raw about conditional devotion.

I have served you and I have loved you for decades, but I will not give up my principles for you. You cut out part of my heart and took it with you down that path that you insist on walking, but you walk it alone. Even when the bleeding, gaping hole you left in my chest kills me, I will not follow you.
