I continue to have a lot of thoughts on the Ishvalin plotline in Fullmetal Alchemist.

No longer sick... no longer artblocked... understood Zeta gundam.... I'm so back... gonna finish a comm today and try make good progress on another

Whats your favorite bit of Fullmetal Alchemist worldbuilding? My favorite is the uninhabited land only called "desert area"

ON THE BONES OF BATALA is a folk- and body horror tabletop role-playing game (TTRPG) inspired by the pre- and colonial histories, cultures, and folklore of the Tagalog region in the Philippines. To play, there has to be at least three players: one Game Master (GM) and two Players. #RPGSEA #KiwiRPG

Long overdue ref refresh!

Whole of Zeta just clicked for me at the "I wouldn't be a very good newtype if I did..." line holy shit I get it now I understand it this is peak fiction

Long overdue ref refresh!

Something that's kinda come to define my taste in movies recently is we're in this era where words like "anti-colonial", "revolutionary", "anti-fascist" have become buzzwords of tentpole features I can't help being cynical about, so I'm always trying to find older works of genuinely progressive art.

Lineart... putting together a long overdue ref. This is the first decently sized thing I've drawn since my artblock stint started so I'm hoping this means I've got the juice back and can jog into it again fully and finally. Then I can resume doing that list of fullbody comms 👵

I'm still completely knocked out with this awful throat cold so I'm sitting here with a big glass of hot chocolate and listening to the beautiful calming voice of Peter Watkins for four hours. Only medicine I need.

Most underrated film ost of all time has to be Joe Strummers soundtrack for Walker. Shit rocks.

I'm sick af right now so this is like saving my life. I'm eating this like how Ben Horne eats that sandwich in episode 3 of twin peaks.

shoutout to my insane bf who went up to auckland, went to a really good chinese place and, bc he knows how much I love it, stopped by right before his flight, got a beef brisket noodle soup to take away, and brought it to wellington for me then dropped by with it at 10pm as a surprise😭

Can I be so real chat I like Zeta less than 79

This is a callout post. There's a big artist I wont name but they have a letterboxd and some of the worst movie opinions I've seen in my life.

Been slowly climbing out of artblock. Quick NPC cards for a Cain game!

Trying to finish Zeta today. This ones taken me a bit, like 3-4 months to get through stopping and starting. These big UC shows can burn you out if you try binge them lol.

Posting to the Israel subreddit that I don't have the bad boy energy

Twin Peaks is one of the most moving and beautiful peaces of art ever made when you just dont mention the yellowface subplot

This is how it feels to do anything when you have artblock

Gonna start a little thread of what I'm watching. Just did House of Flying Daggers so second of the Day

They should make a wuxia movie where the crossdressing swordswoman realizes she likes it and transitions. How have they not done that yet.

Its MY birthday so I get to choose the movie marathon (Offside, Dragon Inn, Patlabor 2)

Happy 22nd birthday me...

still actively obsessed w this

Had a terrible nightmare I was working a hospitality 9-5 and a wonderful dream I got mauled and bitten by a zombie horde

Young Annia Mansur monk from the south-western fertile coast of the Light-Blue Desert. At his feet, the floating corpse of his angel (or its "death shape"). It was sent to him by the Yellow Star (Palma/Palena/Polena) to be sacrificed.

I've been watching lots of Tsui Hark and there's a leering dread that eventually I'm gonna have to put on one of his mainland blockbusters. The Detective Dee films seem cute but I've seen clips from Condor Heroes. Depressing stuff.

Too pretentious to be oc blorbo too oc blorbo to be pretentious.

BF's showing me Fullmetal Alchemist and nothing on heaven or earth could've prepared me for "fuhrer president king Bradley"

I am an extremely trad woman with the taste of a punk woman. This is my curse.

Modern cinemas greatest problem is the death of "women in prison" movies

Question for my TTRPG people: when running games in modern/real world/historical settings, do you tend to use real places or fictional analogues?

shoutout to the piss drunk woman on the bus being held up by her friends who spent the whole ride back telling me how pretty I was and how she wished she looked like me. I'll take the compliment.

Fashionably late #portfolioday post. I make art for my ttrpg games. Sometimes I even like it.

This is how I feel every day after opening my inbox to more job rejection emails.

12 days until I turn 22... Im not ready... my youth where is it going....

Watching the Master. Take Joaquin Phoenix. Take Philip Seymour Hoffman. Now make them both dog girl. Put them both in robot. That shit would do numbers on mech bluesky.

I like a good PTA movie, I'm not a contrarian, but the more time goes on the more I sour on One Battle After Another. Whenever it gets mentioned I always think of like, that weirdly reactionary comedy scene where the guy keeps saying native land names on the phone. Weird movie!

Every pre Pet Sounds Beach Boys recording has a track called "Gee Lets Go To the Diner" and its the hokiest thing you've ever heard then there's 30 seconds at the end where they harmonize and it sounds like a choir of angles and a golden ladder reaching down from heaven.

"LGBT safe!" well I'm LGBT DANGEROUS

Everyone complains about not having personalized websites anymore. Anyway I remembered I had one so I have a blog page now. Just gonna be posting little updates and art from what I've been doing. www.louisajoines.com/blog/its-a-b...
