Yeah, these would do numbers at the ren faire. I'm giggling about how her boobs come in like the nose of the star destroyer in A New Hope

Anime boob physics happening in those dresses... But damn I am not upset.

I am crying laughing.

"Can I spank men with one of those giant paddles? I'll work for free." Honey, the men would be paying YOU. A lot. For the privilege.

'Watch how long it takes for my face to come into frame"

i lost my fucking shit lmao

"I feel like this one looks like the mormon missionary version" GIRL XD

I think they're really meant for fantasy role playing at home, at least by the tradwives to whom I've seen them marketed. Another illusion of freedom.

Hi! It’s cyan. You might know me from mdzs for meta and translation and culture posts.

so my little brother and his friend fell like 800 feet off a mountain this weekend and were lost for 12 hours in the snow before the rescue team found them. I’m still getting the details, but he has pelvic fractures and is dealing with the after effects of extreme hypothermia. His left foot was exposed in 0 degree weather the entire time, and his body temperature was down to 90 by the time he was found, so. 🫠

there are predictably going to be significant medical bills for the both of them and their other friend put together this gofundme to help cover the expenses ><

if you’ve ever enjoyed my work or like my blog or just want to chip in, it would be much appreciated. Both of them are going to be okay, they’re expected to make a full recovery, but it’s been a uh, stressful few days, shall we say.

thanks so much, I know things are tough for everyone, so if you can only toss a reblog this way, that’s totally understandable. 💛

JUST SOME THOUGHTS! I don’t really like the “go from the top up” advice on drapery/clothes - if you’re having difficulty try it like this!

YES I see the typo… I’m so sorry folks… I was in a frenzied rush to make this…… and I’m too lazy to fix it……

Love this. Thank you to all amazing artists and teachers @saltysalmonella.

Off to draw @elodieunderglass’ Derek in a chiffon Regency nightie (i’m so sorry) (when worlds collide)

Well you’ll have to send it to me now!

Now I’m thinking about it, Regency Menswear Killie is literally just going to look like Slightly Fancy Killie. Equestrians, man. They picked a look and stuck to it.

One of the best writing advice I have gotten in all the months I have been writing is "if you can't go anywhere from a sentence, the problem isn't in you, it's in the last sentence." and I'm mad because it works so well and barely anyone talks about it. If you're stuck at a line, go back. Backspace those last two lines and write it from another angle or take it to some other route. You're stuck because you thought up to that exact sentence and nothing after that. Well, delete that sentence, make your brain think because the dead end is gone. It has worked wonders for me for so long it's unreal

I don't remember where I heard this now, but I absorbed the advice, "if you're stuck, count ten sentences back and start again from there". It's not always ten sentences back, for me, but it does force me to look at the last handful of lines I've actually written on a sentence instead of a story level, and that is eminently helpful in unsticking myself most of the time.

I recently resolved a point where I'd been stuck for months not by changing anything in the scene I was currently writing, but by realizing I needed to add another scene before that one to establish key information I couldn't work into the current one

HEY WRITER MUTUALS COME GET YOUR WRITER JUICE

Oh _lovely_. Everyone go turn this off:

Disabling this is easy on iPhone: go to settings > apps > photos, and scroll all the way down to the bottom.

this is mind boggling levels of insane. if you've never done needlefelting you can't quite comprehend how fucking difficult it is to not only make things so precise at such a small scale but like, not get the fibers tangled into literally everything else they interact with. and then ANIMATING it??? bro this is witchcraft

A friendly reminder to USians: if you are planning to vote on Election Day, your mantra is "Nothing I see today convinces me not to go vote."

Exit polls suggest DT cannot be caught? YOU STILL GO VOTE.

Exit polls suggest KH has it in the bag? YOU STILL GO VOTE.

Pundits are saying the country is swinging overwhelmingly red? YOU STILL GO VOTE.

Pundits are saying the country is swinging overwhelmingly blue? YOU STILL GO VOTE.

Polls can be misleading (intentionally or not). The methodology can be biased (or simply poor). Early results may not reflect what the full count will show. There may be a red mirage. NOTHING YOU SEE CONVINCES YOU NOT TO VOTE.

The biggest Democratic win in swing states means nothing if democrats don't turn out everywhere to keep the reliably blue states blue.

VOTE. Wear appropriate weather gear if you think you may have to stand in a line outside (coat, hat, gloves, umbrella, sunhat, whatever, you know where you live). Bring water and a snack and something to do (book, game on your phone, podcast and headphones, whatever, you know what you like). GO VOTE.

NOTHING YOU SEE ON ELECTION DAY CONVINCES YOU NOT TO VOTE.

vote blue. the choice is simple. freedom or fascism. you may not get another chance. vote harris to save lives.

your vote is your power. use it.

Wishing everyone a magical week ahead 🐱🧹🤍
