All Drawings I Did In This Style In Past Several Months

it is NASTY how Walt immediately starts referring to Jane as Jesse's "stripper girlfriend" and gives absolutely no credence or respect to any of Jesse's personal relationships. Walt constantly insults everyone Jesse cares about in order to alienate and isolate him into a world where the only valid relationship Jesse's allowed to have is with him. the only person who Jesse is allowed to spend time with is him. When Walt berates Jesse for not answering the phone he says "what could you possibly be doing? Pick up" and Jesse sprints in to answer to him. Walt knows Jesse has very few people in his life, has no plans, no obligations, no one checking in on him. Literally textbook predatory behavior. And Jesse just falls right into all of his traps. every time. whew it's crazy in here guys, tune in

Here, take these

this ruined me btw

Doc doc you should surprise hug engi like with a blanket and just wrap him up like a big wiggly worm and force him to cuddle!!!

ooooh, so we're not even a LITTLE bit gonna pretend it wasn't all a political stunt

Something so profoundly fucked up between the inverse ratio of shrinking middle class and ever increasing aggression of advertisement

This isnt directed at anything specific, just want to do my best to help out the many people fleeing countries to seek aid in thailand as someone who both grew up here/speaks the language Id like to provide some specific experiences that help foreigners adjust.

First its extremely likely if someone moves to the south east that has been living in the northern hemisphere you will struggle most with the heat and humidity. White People Especially. All of you need to be drinking extra water everyday, this is not a joke heat stroke is very common for white people here because they dont realize how dehydrated they are until its already causing harm. Please stay safe.

If the summers start getting too hot take day trips to mountain towns/businesses there's a lot of local industry around people going to cooler weather at higher elevations during the hottest times of year.

Addition for health, Please get vaccinated Before coming here. We all trust all foreigners/tourists do (and since covid screenings in airports are much more common) Especially for mosquito transmissible diseases.

Thailand uses yearly field burning for crop rotation, this causes periods of the year with extreme air pollution/smog. cities will put out air warnings in advance so people can either seal their homes to prevent air from getting in unfiltered or wear smoke masks. I recommend people do this asap before its a necessity.

Language wise thailand has a large enough tourism base that most people also learn at least some english/there's businesses that teach foreigners thai. Learning before traveling is appreciated, the main thing to keep in mind is that since thai is a tonal language without tone control words can get mixed up/confused. (this is pretty normal for new speakers tho)

If people want to learn thai i highly recommend watching news broadcasts! you get to see a wide variety of speakers and use in conversations. Searching "ข่าว PP" or "ข่าว TNN" on youtube will get you fairly official political broadcasts, but even if you just search ข่าว or ข่าวดึก can bring up a lot of good examples of people speaking.

If youre an english speaker one of the best jobs you can look for is as an english teacher or tutor. It's a very searched for job and usually provides good opportunity for learning the language as well.

If youre in a big city look up the local train routes and use those, as finding parking/driving places will generally be much worse than just using the trains. That being said getting a motor bike is fairly easy and inexpensive for commutes if needed.

This is a disappointing but necessary heads up for foreigners, colorism is still a fairly wide spread issue in thailand. People arent violent but things like finding work/some aid does have discriminatory practices still and its extremely disappointing. There are local movements and people fighting to end it, but its been ingrained in a lot of people.

speaking of local communities if anyone who's coming to thailand is coming for hrt/trans support i highly recommend getting into contact with the local trans fem communities/gay centers. There's massive international culture and groups of people that will help you both get what you need and with support.

I know i said a lot here but i am genuinely really happy my home can provide safety and aid to people in hard times. I know from a lot of personal experience how scary it is when you have to flee your home, and if there's anything i can do to help ease that process even with limited resources i will do my best.

stay safe everyone and keep going.

noted. thank you so much. this is all incredibly helpful info, and it is obvious in how you delivered it that you sincerely care. i appreciate that a lot.

posting for anyone else eyeing Thailand.

If you weren't already concerned about TikTok, you should be. You fucking should be.

It's already being censored and I've had Christian content pushed onto me. Also, check out when I tried to search for certain terms below.

I searched for Hitler. Nothing came up. In fact, it told me to "get the facts". I know plenty of videos have been spread about him and WWII Germany, so this is highly highly suspicious.

Then I search for anti Trump. Only "Trump campaign 2024 commercial" shows up.

What about anti Trump rallies? Recent trump rallies, latest trump rallies, trump rally 2024, etc.

Many are participating in Operation Firewall, a similar strategy used by us here on Tumblr and gold on BlueSky. Ignore and block all conservatives while lifting up progressive and liberal voices. I will be doing this until the app is officially bought, at which point I'm fully deleting.

Please share this. I know some of you have a disdain for TikTok, but about half of America uses the app. It's used for things such as sharing protests, marchs and events many news outlets won't cover due to their own agenda or time.

Don't let this be buried.

Bonus: TikTok is thanking 'President' Trump prior to his inauguration for 'saving' TikTok. Despite Biden saying he would not enforce the ban prior to it going dark. Don't forget this was a stunt and TikTok has come back corrupted.

Day 1 - Speed/Distance

Day 2 - Love/Hate

I'm a little late but I am managing to get by the time!! First two prompts of sniperscout week💔💔
