i’m so genuinely lucky to be dumb as hammers. the simplest things bring me joy. i’ve had several fits of passionate laughing out loud today because i can’t stop thinking of the phrase “one william dollars”

I didn't really know how to divide the categories but I tried my best.

I do think it’s unfortunate that people (europeans) automatically assume that “american” style versions of foods are immediately the most bastardized version done purposefully out of lack of culture, when the reality a lot of times it’s rooted in a response of millions of poor immigrants stepping foot in a foreign land attempting to recreate beloved recipes with what few ingredients were available and affordable

i love when a villain is like "ahhh what a ROTTEN day" but they mean that it's good and they're just saying it like that because they arbitrarily like when things are bad

[image description: the "i love you" destiel meme. in the first panel, cas says i love you. in the second panel, where dean's face should be, is a newspaper headline in french. it reads "jean-marie le pen, l'homme qui a remis l'extrême droite au coeur du jeu politique français, est mort"]

[translation: jean-marie le pen, the man who put the far right back at the heart of the french political arena, is dead"]

🎉🎉🎉🎉

i love when a song is an acquired taste. you can listen to something once and go huh. there's something here even if im not quite ready for it yet. and you listen a couple more times. and then bam a couple weeks or months or years later you listen, youve finally worn the song in and it's the most beautiful thing you've ever heard

Some of the tweets / posts about bisexuals are funny japes and jabs and then a vast majority of them are like ever notice every bisexual is a goth chick named Kate who says she likes you but then shacks up with some MAN named Daren from her hometown? that’s why you should never trust bisexuals . and it’s like hm that might be a bit of a you problem

Hey in middle earth is there any ecological consequences for those big fuckin eagles

its kind of really awesome to be a huge fan of ur friends art because then they become famous to you. its not exactly the same as making friends with an artist u already look up to its like if michaelangelo was relatively unknown and posted his art to 1 discord server and his tumblr blog. and you just have to sit there like i need people to understand how cool you are. why aren't you being asked for autographs yet

hi jon! i was already working out a TSV map for my own purposes and since you mentioned the Map Difficulties in the q&a i thought i'd share my personal solution. the river has twin mouths :)

this would make hayward's "there's only two directions to travel along the river" comment complete nonsense but on well.

so carpenter and faulkner travel upriver in season 1 (it changes to downriver when they go from marcel's crossing to bellwethers but there's no avoiding that) and then the withermark blackflows carpenter upriver until she eventually washes downriver into its south branch. carpenter travels upriver again in season 2, and further still in season 3 until she's picked up by hayward. faulkner follows carpenter downriver on the north branch at the end of s3.

it kind of makes it so the river is a pair of jaws trying to close around glottage which i think is fun

i loved the q&a. hope you're having a great new year!

This is a perfect thematic and practical solution, thank you so much (what does Hayward know? Nothing, that's what). I'm going to quietly tell myself this was what I intended all along.

starting 2025 with a tsv relisten so here's to carpenter. what a woman 😳 i don't have a stable character design in my head but ultimately i've settled on the certainty that she's butch and so should everyone else

[image description:

image 1: a digital portrait of carpenter, scowling and looking down at the viewer, with a blood splatter on her cheek. she's a white woman with a square jaw, a hooked nose, green eyes, wrinkles, dark circles under her eyes, very short brown hair and a dark purple shirt.

image 2: a picture of a sketchbook with two drawings. in the upper left is a grey sketch of a woman's face and upper body, with long hair in a braid and a tank top. she's grinning and saying "how else would i make it clear that i don't care what you have to think or say?". the second drawing, on a green post-it note, is a pen sketch of the same woman with flames in the back ground, looking crazed. she's shouting "tell me more about your god, I want to know whose house I've wrecked!"

image 3: a grey and red sketch of a the same woman shooting at the camera with a pistol. she's wearing a red shirt and grey jacket. there's a bloody hatchet stuck in the wall behind her with the number 4 painted in blood next to it. the woman is saying "3', and there is a number 2 next to the gun's barrel.

image 4: a black pen sketch of a butch woman in a tank top and cargo trousers, crossing her arms and looking to the side. at her a side is a small sketch of a little girl half-hiding behind her leg and looking the the other side. the whole drawing is covered with red writing in all caps that reads "your fury always followed in the footsteps of your shame. you'd take a kind of sour pride in tearing apart everything you'd built . you couldn't stand to be seen and so you convinced yourself, time and time again, that if you only burnt everything down, you'd have a better chance of escaping in the smoke. you broke everything life gave you.

image 5: a colour pencil drawing in a small notebook. the design is the same as in the first image, with a square jaw, a hooked nose and short hair. her face is lined, her cheeks hollowed, the bags under her eyes deep and purple. /end ID]

[ID: Three pictures of a natu pokemon plush. The plush is large and made of a fluffy material. It has the shiny coloration of natu where the usually red sections are orange. The first picture shows a side view of the plush and the second picture shows a behind view. In the third picture the plush is on a couch next to a smaller xatu plush. On each picture in white is written "mudkipminky" and "made by Sey". End ID]

I finished my second project. BIG NATU BLAST!!! It's about the same size as my sanei natu but more densely stuffed and fluffy. It also has shiny colors. I'm very happy with how it looks and I really like the tail.

as much as i understand being a hater you have to offset that shit with genuine, sincere enjoyment & wonder sometimes lest YOU become the one who is corny. and sad. imo.

5 minutes into the fabric store: wow the world has so much to offer and so many possible wonderful things to make

10 minutes into the fabric store: everything around me will continue to pollute the earth long after humans are gone and this ring of plastic minion beads will see the new pangea

[image description: a digital painting of carpenter in the style of disco elysium portraits. she is a middle-aged woman with long black hair greying a little, black eyes, dark bags under her eyes and sunken cheeks. she is wearing a grey-blue shirt and a brown jacket. the background is grey, red and white./end ID]

TALL AND ANGRY WOMAN

(Disco Elysium inspired portrait for Carpenter)

regret not giving her any discerning silt-verses-ish symbols in this portrait but i love her anyway. her river overshadows her in the background and doubles as the floating willow/the wound tree, the deep red that typically represents anger/physical skills in DE also lies in her shadow. thank you discord people for coming up with a suitably disco name for her!
