Dizzy the Dalmatian

via x x x x

Born October 7, 2000

Black and white is just a bore I can't stand it anymore Purple, green or maybe blue Think I'll see what I can do!

In addition to Beanie Buddy, Jingle Beanie and key clip incarnations, Dizzy the Beanie Baby has 5 variations. From most to least common: colored spots with black ears; colored spots with colored ears; black spots with black ears with a red collar (instead of a ribbon); black spots with colored ears (UK); and black spots with black ears (Canada).

The key clip has a red collar, but the Jingle Beanie has a scarf! Isn't that cute?

💜 Ophelia | Wishlist

✦ Show her new places and new things! Ophelia is still rather new to Earth, so there are plenty of first experiences she’s yet to discover— your muse could be the pseudo-tour guide!

✦ Peekaboo, The Playful Phantomime: Peekaboo is a new, budding hero. If your muse is a hero, you should let her tag along and show her the ropes!  ✦ Gullible Ghost: If your muse doesn’t have the best intentions and is willing to put in some serious work … well, having an eldritch horror who craves companionship around your finger is nothing to sneeze at. Even if it is a dangerous game to play.

✦ Her past as a devourer of the stars (ie. an intergalactic superweapon) is revealed one way or another. Or perhaps your muse knows of GHOST-713 before they knew Ophelia? Regardless: there are consequences.

✦ Something something B.atman & C.atwoman vibes. You know? You know. <-(I am a simple woman) <-<-(this does not need to be gendered) <-<-<-(it’s the vibes)

✦ Experiment Solidarity. Be it for better or for worse, Ophelia feels kinship towards those who are just pawns forced into their roles or were used as nothing more than playthings. Fellow labrats get bonus points! <-Anyway, they should have a heart-to-heart about it (and perhaps make each other worse— IIII mean better. Yeah.)

✦ Eldritch Entities: The above, but instead of being fellow experiments, being fellow [REDACTED UNKNOWNS]. Ophelia is a host to a parasitic, cosmic mimic that feasts on stars— but she’s more akin to an egg before it hatches. Not quite fully eldritch yet but something will inevitably awaken beneath the surface ... maybe your muse can tell?

✦ There's a hole-in-the-wall, speakeasy where Ophelia performs at. Meander on in and you might catch a show. 🎤🎶

✦ Ophelia protects your muse— by any means necessary. For a less brutal display, Peekaboo is here to make sure you're safe too! (or perhaps ... Peekaboo needs to tap into her inner self to make sure you make it home alive)

ngl, i’m a lil bit obsessed with the concept of partially concealed identities between friends. characters who are friends, but one is a hero/villain and can’t tell the other — really normal, classic thing to see in the superhero genre. but like 👁️👁️ make them enemies 👁️👁️ make it angsty 👁️👁️ make them so loyal and dedicated to each other only to find out they’re on opposite sides of a conflict 👁️👁️ make them cry 👁️👁️

Do you have any other wishes for GMMTV part 2 aside from the mandatory slow burn?

[TAKES OUT HER WISHLIST] ANON HOW MUCH TIME DO YOU HAVE

all jokes aside, i honestly do have way too many wishes when it comes to what i want to see from GMMTV and most of them are very hyperspecific, so instead of giving you just an endless list of whatever random ideas or pairings i’d like to get (which is maybe more appropriate for a bingo card or something like that), i kinda condensed it all into some more general categories (sort of. a couple fo these are still pretty specific ;;;;;;;;)

anyway, here we go!!!!

1. WOMEN. literally my top wish after anything jimmysea related is MORE. WOMEN. like srsly give me viewjune as the main pairing in a GL!!!!!!!! give me sizzy in any combination!!!!!!!! give me women centring shows where the women actually get treated as the main characters!!!!!!!! give me the GL version of series like only friends and we are where the women get to be silly and nasty!!!!!!!!! give me jamie kissing women as a treat to me specifically!!!!!!!!! GIVE. ME. WOMEN.

2. historical QL. after the success of i feel you linger in the air and with both idolfactory and domundi working on releasing historical QLs in the near future, i think it’s about time GMMTV also gives us a proper one. possibly with no time travel or reincarnation involved, for once

3. plot driven QL. this is kinda tied to my wish for an actual slow burn and partly to the following point as well, but i do desperately wish we could get a QL series where the romance is obviously still there, but it’s not the main focus of the show, or at least not the only one. something like manner of death or triage, where the romance just happens along the way as the story unfolds. i think the closest GMMTV got to it was with not me, but it would be nice to get more, even if i know this is not everyone’s cup of tea

4. some variety please for the love of god. look, i know we’re never gonna get rid of school settings and office romances, so it’s pointless to wish to have none of those, but i do desperately need a bit more diversity. of the fifteen series announced in part 1, seven of them are set in school. SEVEN. that’s basically half of the offer they’re giving. and okay, if we consider only the QL shows then the ratio is better (3 out of 9), but still. give me thriller shows, give me horror shows, give me fantasy shows, give me sci-fi shows, give me jobs that aren’t just office workers or chefs, give me mystery, give me crime, give me cashiers and doctors and detectives and firefighters and taxi drivers and teachers and librarians and waiters and bartenders and mechanics and lawyers and flight attendants and therapists and farmers and hairdressers and reporters, JUST!!!!!!!!! explore something new!!!!!!!! take some risks!!!!!!!! i know GMMTV as a company is not as big as we think it is and that it focuses on teens and new generation audiences, but i don’t think younger people want to see students and office workers exclusively……

5. QL exploring other sexualities and gender identities. just give me ace main characters, trans main characters, non-binary main characters, ALL THE DIFFERENT QUEER MAIN CHARACTERS!!!!!!!

6. pepper/papang/guy/podd in any combination as a main pairing in a QL. love and light to all the rookies but if GMMTV doesn’t give these men some main roles im gonna start committing grand scale larceny to cope

[diliqence]

i thiiiiink i’m gonna read for a bit, but pls know maemi 100% would join up with the league, and i’m not making that part of her canon purely bc it would make me anxious asdfg but i’m just saying uvu it’s something to consider for future interactions uvu

[tvrningout]

lil crime au in which chiyo does bookkeeping for a gang after she drops out of college so she can make decent money while attempting to get her manga published… i’m having thoughts

[cosmic-ships]

Me looking on Amazon because at the end of the month I really want a poster of Anakin and I'm trying to find the custom make one again.

Amazon: We got Lorenzo though!!!

I didn't know Jaden Yuki plush existed until now and I desire them GREATLY

[muse-stellium]

So, in my many ventures of trying to focus lately, I've 100% succeeded in concentrating and planning all out scenes like a movie in my head of everything and anything... but what I actually want to focus on most of the time. c':

So! While I'm away, please take this wishlist containing the stars of my maladaptive daydreams to get them out of my head, and if you see any you'd like, please always feel free to let me know 👀💜✨ :

- Family related plots my beloved (Anna, Steve, Richard, Helena) like I did not pick up Nina as a muse to not bask in family dynamics like a lake

- Found family of criminals and / or partners in crime tropes are both also legit good food

- Assassin meets infamous Mother of All Assassins ( Assassin mentoring? Assassin teaming up w assassin? Assassin crushing on better assassin? Idc please gimme gimme)

- Enemies to lovers trope hey hi hello

- Bitter exes dynamics are always neat

- Devil Nina & Brainwashed by Ogre Nina not only live rent free in my brain but for whatever reason usually are throwing parties in there w supersonic speakers

- Interrogation plots / interactions interest me like?? Profile her? Let her profile you?? Either or, tension????

- I want to add Nina saving someone she cares about plot to this list so badly, but like... she needs someone to care about first. Where are they? The myths? The legends?

- One night stand that turns into something more plots are so valid idc who says otherwiiiise 👏👏👏👏

- Any friends / lovers of Nina prior to her amnesia, your friend / girlfriend is running literal world wars where are you??

- Nina was born for the arrogant and coy "So you have no one else to turn to" trope. Tbh most villain tropes for that matter. Where is her crown? Where is her evil cloak?

- And finally, listen.... She hasn't backstabbed anyone in awhile, her knife's getting dull.

Please please tell me about printers, I would like to know <b>everything</b>

You asked for it /lh

Ok so some clarification: I spent three years at Staples working with a Xerox C70 color laser printer, so that's where my "expertise" lies.

FIRST OFF - DO NOT EVER GET YOUR PHOTOS PRINTED AT A STAPLES/OFFICE MAX/FEDEX/UPS/ANY OTHER OFFICE STORE!!!!!

All office stores (that I have been to) use laser printers. Laser printers are high capacity (meaning they can print loads of stuff before the toner needs to be changed), and use toner, which is a powder version of the ink that is electrically fixed and baked onto the paper. (Forgive the oversimplification) This means that the color will not soak into the paper/past the coating if there is one. So, if you want a glossy photo printed, you will literally be baking the color over top of the gloss, and the color will not be glossy. It will be ugly. I've made like at least 300 family photos and other shit on a laser printer. Don't do it.

Sometimes you can play with the printer settings (the Xerox C70 has pretty in-depth settings because obv it's for office printing) and you can set the color load to be "glossy" but that really just means a thicker layer of toner. It's a little shinier but not glossy.

Also, laser printers just can't get that tight, crisp color quality that an inkjet can. So many people came in wanting to make their Christmas cards with these ultra high quality photos and wanted them cheap and same-day, and then would complain that they were "fuzzy". Personally, I always thought they looked fine, but white suburban mom Karens complained all the damn time about the "fuzziness" of their fancy professional photos. Inkjet can get the crisp, sharp lines that you see in digital photos and art, whereas the toner, being powder based, just can't quite get it.

ALSO also! The colors on your computer screen will always be a little brighter and nicer than what comes out of the printer! That is because your computer is back lit, it's shining light at your eyes. Paper cannot do that, so sometimes the colors look a little "dark" or "muddy". Personally, I've seen this with really light lavender, beige, and cyan the worst. Combine this with the more limited scope of color mixing with a laser printer, and sometimes you get weird ass colors coming out. If you have a specific idea for your colors, inkjet is the better bet.

Tldr: get your photos printed at Walgreens or Walmart, or send them somewhere that specializes in photo printing.

There are two main categories of printers, Laser and Inkjet. You have an inkjet if you have a printer in your home.

Inkjet printers have the liquid ink in the cartridge, that's why you have to wait a little bit before it dries, especially for specialty papers or really old printers. The liquid ink can soak into the paper/through the coating, so that's where you get the nice glossy photo prints. ((You can also buy sheets of primed canvas for inkjet printers, which is super cool and I definitely have a bunch of it for some of my favorite digital artworks from friends)).

Ink can come in two types - dye based and pigment based. You have dye based ink if you have a printer at home. Pigment based inkjet is for like,,, the top of the top art printing. It's expensive as hell, but it doesn't fade from light exposure, like dye ink can. (Don't worry, the things you print at home are not likely to fade very much, unless you have them in direct light and never turn the lights off. I have seen photos fade because of light exposure, but that's because Staples never turns any of the lights off for whatever reason, and we had printed pictures using the poster printer to get the nice gloss without realizing.) Pigment based is also apparently a powder, but I'll be honest I don't know how it's fixed to the paper. I assume heat as well. (I've never gotten to work with a pigment printer, I only know about them because I was looking for good printers to print art and found out about them, then I saw the price tag and was like lolol)

When buying specialty paper to print on (like photo paper or canvas), you need to check the label!!!! There are papers designed for laser printers that can withstand the heat and accept the toner, and there are papers designed for inkjet that can hold the liquid ink as it soaks through. The coating on an inkjet safe paper is not as heat resistant as ones made for laser. If you put it in the laser printer, the coating will melt, and you will ruin the internal machinery. I have seen it happen. Don't do it.

Speaking of specialty paper! Have you ever heard of pearlized paper??? It's my favorite paper!!! It's sparkly!!!! 😍

Pearlized paper is typically for laser printing; I've tried to print on it with an inkjet but it came out looking really weird. It's shimmery without having chunky glitter on top that will fall off and go everywhere. Go to your local Staples and ask if they have pearlized paper, just to look at. Pictures can't do it justice. (My business cards for my fairies are printed on soft pearl, which is ivory colored, because I printed and made them myself so I got to do what I wanted /lh) We mainly used it for weddings and stuff, but I recommended for all kinds of stuff because I thought it was so cool.

Other papers: the two main types of paper you will work with at home are regular paper and cardstock. Cardstock just means thick. Both can come in tons of cool colors and textures (linen texture is my personal favorite, you usually buy it as 'resume' or 'business' paper.) you know how thick a piece of paper is by its "weight" which is measured in pounds. I don't know why it's measured in pounds, it just is.

If you want a nice quality paper to print on that's still flexible and foldable, you want to look for something that's 24-30lbs. Typical cheap copier paper is 20lbs, and a lot of the time you can see through it, i.e. if you print something double sided you'll be able to see a little of the text on the back showing through. I have found that 24lbs is thin enough to be more affordable (per ream), but thick enough to not have the bleed through. We had a 32lb paper that was thick nice thickness and super smooth, and we called it "ultra premium". It was nice, but I wouldn't print like flyers and stuff on it. I did a lot of booklets with that one.

If you're gonna get a cardstock, get something 60~lbs and up. 65lb is a really good thickness if you're printing coloring pages because it soaks up the marker ink and holds it nicely. Use 100lb if you're making a coloring *book* that's going to be double sided.

Cardstock cannot be machine folded without a really heavy duty machine, and it's very annoying because those machines are usually at the high-volume production centers and not in-house, so customers complain that they have to wait for their booklets. >.>

When working with business cards, post cards, and the like, you will hear about "bleed area" or "print to bleed". That just means whether or not the ink can go all the way to the very edge of whatever is being printed. When you design a business card or other card to be printed, you will typically have a bleed area, where you want the background to go a little farther than the actual size of the card to allow for cutting, but you want to keep any important text or photos to a certain area so it doesn't accidentally get cut off. The bleed area is not a negotiation. If you don't have space for the bleed, something will get cut off.

At Staples, our business cards were 2x3.5 inches, but the designs had to be about 2.25x3.75 to allow for bleed. The number of times I had to go in and manually fix some idiot's card because they didn't understand what a bleed was is absolutely absurd.

You can get full page size (8.5x11) printed to bleed, for things like flyers with special borders and letter heads, but those also require specialized printers that are at the production facility. The number of people who outright refused to understand this was also absurd. If you have a printer at home, there is a 99.99% chance it is not able to print to bleed for a full 8.5x11, and that's why you still have a white edge if you try to print something that is supposed to have color all the way to the edge of the paper.

My final bit of advice before I end my rant: when you're financially independent and able to/want to buy your own printer, if you plan on making your own art prints to sell, do NOT get an HP printer. HP is fine for general use, it prints well and it's pretty ink-efficient, but it's just not got the super fine quality. Brother and Canon are the two brands I personally recommend for art and photography; they're more expensive but they have a really nice quality of printing. I had to do a lot of training for HP printers and computers, and it's a lot of big words that mean very little in the grand scheme of things.

i’m screaming and tossing this into my wishlist immediately

[outofthiisworld]

💫// swirling thoughts in my head ever since making a few holodisguise ophelia icons and man ... in hindsight i'd love if someone only knew her as her disguise (at first), i think it'd be fun maybe!

Just a girlypop who doesn't have that good of stamina or health, needs a cane to walk around, but somehow always seems to pop up out of nowhere and manages to sneak up on you!

She doesn't like her photo being taken. Maybe you chalk it up to a case of low self-esteem but ... she holds herself confidently otherwise. Even when you do snag a photo, she never comes out right in them (too blurry, too bright).

You start noticing ... things, too. She doesn't say much about herself. You don't even know her birthday. One time you grabbed her hand and you swore you felt her skin split or a static shock. You look down but nothing looks amiss.

Often times, you might overhear her and her pops talk about something but it's always ... hush-hush. He gives you a side-eye.

taps the microphone. beach day with chiyo that involves going early to beat the crowds, splashing each other with chilly water bc it’s too early for it to be warm yet, burying each other partially in the sand, looking for neat seashells, and possibly throwing one another around in the water. beach day that ends with sunburn bc one of you ( probably chiyo ) forgot to reapply. beach day that ends with a very nice nap. beach day with chiyo 👁️👁️

we are expecting gmmtv 2024 in october. what's your list of manifestations? share with us, dear!

GMMTV 2024 HAPPENING IN OCTOBER CAUGHT ME COMPLETELY UNPREPARED TBH LIKE LAST YEAR I HAD A WHOLE LIST OF PREDICTIONS AND THINGS I WANTED TO SEE AND RN IM MOSTLY LIKE ???????? JIMMYSEA AND THEN ???????????????????

i also don’t know how to feel about the line up being announced before last twilight and 23.5 even got the chance to air (unless we’re getting last twilight replacing hidden agenda which means it would start on october 1st, but i do not dare to hope), however i thought about it a little and here’s a very rough list of my hopes and dreams that im gonna actualize with the power of manifestation and delusion:

JIMMYSEA NEW SERIES DIRECTED BY P’JOJO. LISTEN I DON’T CARE IF IT’S UNLIKELY FOR THEM TO GET A SHOW 3 YEARS IN A ROW MY CLOWN WIG IS ON MY SHOES ARE SQUEAKING MY MAKE UP IS IN PLACE. the amount of p’jojo+jimmysea online interactions we’ve got since p’jojo visited them on the last twilight set is just TOO SUSPICIOUS to be meaning nothing I WANT TO BELIEVE. that being said, i feel like it will probably be an ensamble cast kind of series, so im praying for the medical drama QL of my dreams with jimmysea + earthmix OR the heist QL of my dreams with jimmysea + forcebook. im not picky though I REALLY JUST WANT A NEW PROJECT FOR JIMMYSEA AS A PAIRING but also..

SOME SOLO PROJECT FOR BOTH JIMMY AND SEA. they’re both great actors and sea in particular is able to portray an insane range of emotions so it’s time for GMMTV to start giving him more roles.

regardless of whatever happens with jimmysea, i do want earthmix and forcebook to have a new series next year.

PAPANG AS THE MAIN LEAD IN A BL. do i believe this is gonna happen? sadly, no. will i still be manifesting this every single day from here to october? DAMN RIGHT I WILL MY MAN DESERVES IT. actually i said this before but i think GMMTV should just give me papang+guy+pond+pepper in a BL. MY MEN DESERVE IT.

AT LEAST 2 GLs BUT PREFERABLY MORE. freenbecky got me gagged with their upcoming sci-fi movie and period drama series, so i think GMMTV should step up their game and give us ALL THE GIRLS. im frankly starving for more GLs so i don’t really have any specific plot i want to see, i just want the genre to thrive and be allowed to explore different stuff like BL has started to do. if i really had to pick tho, i would love to have a sizzy series (maybe with janaye and ciizejane) and to have prigkhing and piploy in a GL. and namtan. and jamie.

QL exploring other sexualities and gender identities. just give me ace main characters, trans main characters, non-binary main characters, ALL THE DIFFERENT QUEER MAIN CHARACTERS!!!!!!!

i want to say enigma season 2 because it was actually a great show but with bright leaving GMMTV i don’t think i should get my hopes up ;;;;;;; unless they recast his character since he appeared for 5 seconds at the end of the series.

these are the main things that come to my mind for now, but im sure that by the time october comes im gonna have some more!!!!
