some Kit Kittredge stickers I want to make at some point :D (Also, if anyone has any advice [check my og tags] I'd appreciate it!!)
#my art#strawberridraws#fanart#american girl#ag#kit kittredge#I can't figure out how to make stickers lol#aka most online places either have huge quantities or big shipping costs#like vograce and sticker app (and I won't use sticker mule because I've heard not great things)#and people say that making them yourself is cheaper in the long run anyways#but I need a cricut for that#and it seems like all the cheaper options don't do kiss cut sheets?? or are able to sense the page (?)#tbh the whole lists of them just confuse me on what I'd want to get if I just wanted to make vinyl kiss cut sticker sheets#as especially I don't really want a super bulky machine either#so yeah :') if anyone knows any good sites or has home making advice id really appreciate it!!!!#stickers#craft#art#sticker making#arts and crafts#cricut

since i wont be posting on my rw blog anymore im just gonna repost all the stuff from there. get downtown+painting'd
#that painting ref is old as balls....#their thing is that under painting is a bioluminescent forest called the nest. inspired by the vinyl art#downtown is from a species of slugcat who evolved along with the nest#while painting wasnt being a City she was making purposed organisms for her citizens but only if they asked her nicely#she lured downtown to her chamber like u lure a stray cat to your house and gave him the mark#downtown IS really smart he just dont give af abt anything painting says#he cant understand that shes the entire superstructure and not just the puppet#he thinks shes a kind of tick or parasite living inside this giant animal#“this thing is so stupid. i know how eyes and mouths look like and i know mouths are always under eyes but although she has eyes she doesnt#have a mouth‼️‼️‼️‼️ whats wrong with her. she sucks at being a tick. i need to make sure she doesnt starve or falls off or something“#my art#my ocs#downtown#unfinished painting

so much Mayday stuff (& a smidgeon of Vinyl City worldbuilding) in my head. ooouugghh. wrote this at 12am last night and i'm not the best at articulating my thoughts so forgive me as this wooonnt be the most polished. this is likee a mini conglomeration of personal headcanons and a bit of analysis (reading too far into things) ... i just wanna talk about her REEEAALLL BAAADDDD
i've always thought of Mayday as someone so deeply intertwined with Vinyl City (specifically the working-class & lower-class areas; the 'little guys') that her dream of becoming a big famous rockstar also stems from a desire for agency/power. power to be able to do SOMETHING in the name of her communities after personally living through, like, 2 decades of neglect—condemned by NSR to live in the shadow of the more tourist-oriented/commercial/profitable parts of the city—even if it means rising to charterhood under the same stupid record label that's the source of all her problems in the first place ...
i also like to believe this, in tandem with her rumbustious nature, is why Mayday IMMEDIATELY switches to aggression (dare i call it a TV meltdown...?) following her & Zuke's flames being so harshly snuffed out during the Lights Up Audition.
Mayday was probably warned beforehand by the adults around her about the EDM bias. i think she ignored/dismissed every warning/dissuasion because she believed in herself and her ability and her principles too unshakably for her own good. and then for the judges (particularly Tatiana) to unanimously strike her dream down like that, thus proving their warnings right & her hard work (and ignorance) in vain... FURY!!!! (Mayday is NOT the best at taking losses with grace)
and then the banning of Rock from the Lights Up Audition happens. and then the subsequent blackout and diversion of energy happens. and seeing the extent of what happens across the city with her own eyes from atop the ledge (after being limited to her own ground-level experiences on the outside, looking inward) is what finally tips her over the edge and into the vat of a full-blown revolution.
semi-related, but i also view Mayday's hatred towards EDM as. like. a general prejudice. it goes a bit deeper than just Not liking the sound/style; she associates it with NSR, and therefore links it with everything wrong with Vinyl City. rock music, a dying art in the era being upheld by her tightly-knit community, untouched by NSR, to her is authenticity.
she also loathes the "Order leads to progress in Vinyl City." slogan because, to her, order means complacency... and complacency has done shit all for anyone she knows. ("If chaos is what is needed to get things done around here, so be it!")
i know i'm kind of bouncing back to the second paragraph but. like. there's just something so dear to me about the idea of a Mayday whose a roving city girl from off the streets... armed with her guitar, her passion, and her support system, doing everything she can to prevent rock—her home—from becoming irrelevant. always chasing a fantasy about being something bigger than herself. even if the odds are stacked against her. even if Mayday's own impetuosity is a double-edged sword that impedes her just as much as it enables her.
to me she's. like. a melting pot of ambition and stubbornness and righteousness and naievite. Mayday girl i love you SOOOOOO SOOOOOOOOO MUCH ideally i would put this all into a legitimate form of writing like a backstory fic or something but gah i don't even know where to START
#no straight roads#'you into mayday?' Don't even joke lad.#even what i typed here isn't the full extent of it duuude#and this isn't even HALF of everything#i have yet to discuss my many haphazard thoughts concerning her family.#and my thoughts regarding how growing up in her circumstances has affected her for the better and for the worse#and my thoughts regarding how the theory of nsr taking place in 2006 is so PERFECT#and my thoughts regarding her relationship with kul fyra#and my thoughts regarding h#YOU GET MY POINT#DONT EVEN JOKE LAD#nsr mayday#nettsy rambling#i hope my interpretation of her makes sense#kind of thankful mayday is canonically a blank slate#other than her grandmama & the implications that she grew up in vinyl city#cuz it allows us to literally do whatever

I’m glad Joanna Newsom isn’t on Spotify because The Milk Eyed Mender is so powerfully and painfully evocative of a very bittersweet time in my life that I have to treat it as a rare and expensive bottle of wine that requires a half day’s journey by foot to the wine cellar of an eccentric old man who will allow me to drink the wine, but I may only do so if I sit crosslegged on the earthen floor of his in-ground wine cellar, which he dug by hand, and he closes the wooden hatch over my head and latches it from the outside so I can give the wine and its intricate symphony of notes the proper attention it requires, alone in the dark, and dank, and scent and quiet, and he comes back in a few hours to let me out and hand me a soft cotton handkerchief embroidered by his late wife (he has been a widow for 15x the length of time he was ever married) so I can clean the tears and loam from my cheeks. Aka I have to let it play from the YouTube browser website from my phone and can’t do anything else throughout.
#or whatever#you can imagine how exhausting it is to be my friend in real life. there come times when I watch my loved ones’ eyes glaze over in real#time#basically there was a Milk Eyed Mender vinyl in an incredibly specific few week span of my life#an incredibly fraught transitional period#and it makes me so powerfully sick to listen to#so thank you joanna newsom for that decision bc though I sometimes would love to have it easily accessible…it really hurts LOL!

I know this meme template is ancient but fuck it. It's fun.
(And my explanation for Zuke's spot is basically: "Tries to be a reasonable adult but gives up and joins after a bit.")
#No Straight Roads#Shitpost#Let's see how much traction this shitpost gets#And maybe I'll make a version with the Vinyl City citizens like Barbara or Zam or Yiruk or etc if people want to see it

the day am fans realise that miles/milex shippers are less problematic and harmful to the fandom than lv/her supporters will be one of the best days of my life
rant incoming because I'm going insane:
i will never ever understand why am fans have so much beef with milex shippers.
i have been in SO many fandoms throughout my life, I've been obsessed with SO many bands whose members are shipped to the point of insanity, and it was never a problem. sure, some people didn't like the ships, but why are so many am fans acting like this is something unique? bts, mcr, dan and phil, harry potter, I've seen fucking everything. every other fandom in the world are just this obsessed with their ships, trying to prove that two men are fucking, posting theories and so on. shipping was always a thing in fandoms and always will be, especially if we're talking about male celebrities and teenage girls.
having said this, the kind of fandom i have never been in is one where grown ass women bring this much toxicity to the community and behave like children. there are hundreds of celebrities whose girlfriends are not liked by the fans, but no girlfriend ever engaged this much with the haters, probably because they realised that it would only make things worse, and the fans would hate them even more.
we could've had some peaceful end of the tour content, but no, we have this instead. every few months something has to be done by a certain someone in order for people to pay attention to her, and so that in the end fans will forget the reason they're fans and engage in stupid shit like this, defeating the whole purpose of being a music fan.
all this drama is slowly making me not want to have anything to do with am or the fandom anymore. if not for miles and him being connected to am, i would've stopped giving a fuck about alex years ago (technically not through his fault, but then also because of him). this whole thing just makes me sad because miles does not deserve to be associated with these people and the fact that he will never be able to get rid of them is so not it.
#look i could talk about this for hours but it makes me so angry it's best to just stop#i saved the spiciest things for the tags#matt used to be my favourite but now i cannot even stand to hear his name#such a disappointment i really thought he was better than this#which also makes me question what the hell alex sees in him#and then again alex is probably not the best person in the world#which i guess we knew ever since the absolutely disgusting behaviour towards taylor and him being friends with ppl like josh homme#and cameron avery#sigh#it's just a shame that his music is really good#(anyone looking to buy some am vinyls? 😂)#oh miles the things i endure for you#i have such a love/hate relationship with alex it's crazy#one second i love him the other i never want to see him again#which then makes me think about how different things would be if he had a different girlfriend#she really ruined absolutely everything#(not) sorry#rant#alex turner#milex#louise verneuil#arctic monkeys

good days aren't easy to come by
#simblr#ts4 legacy#valentine gen 4#fun fact for context on why i care so much abt him finally choosing to play the piano on his own#but it's gonna get Long so strap in#basically. the guitar he used to have had been with him since he was like...... my god. probably about 15#he bought it at a yard sale for pennies from an older woman#it belonged to her late son originally and it wasn't even . supposed to be a part of the sale in the first place. she just took a liking to#devin and figured that really it's better in the hands of someone who would use it than for it to collect dust in her garage forever#and he couldn't really practice at home. his parents... are not exactly the kindest people you've ever seen#he was too afraid of them destroying or throwing it away so he'd sneak off to god knows where and learn how to play it from old#youtube videos on his busted up phone#it quickly became Everything to him. his most prized possession. and it wasn't a shitty guitar either. the son was a professional musician#that's how ellie and devin met in the first place. he was playing at the market she used to sneak out to in the evenings to#and she instantly knew . this boy is going places and really they might as well go together#enough backstory of the backstory. long story short: he was struggling to make rent eventually and was out of vinyls to pawn off#so he had no choice left. it was either that or he'd get kicked out along with his sister. who was still struggling a lot w/ addiction#so he sold it. and it broke him. he's literally just not been the same since losing it#his sister stole him a guitar from a music shop she'd go to sometimes but it just wasn't the same and he had not played an instrument since#until now anyway#still not a guitar. but maybe someday#or he can find his old one and buy it again.........#lmfao if you made it here congrats. you win nothing bc im broke but i do respect you

A little mend here that I was pleasantly surprised worked, I fixed the fraying bits on my book-shaped wallet! Figured that red thread works quite well with the themes of War of the Worlds.
First up, we've got some simple stitches perpendicular to the edge of the wallet, think a blanket stitch but the thread doesn't run through the loop created. Honestly, there are probably more complex ways I could have stitched that vinyl "leather" back onto the fabric and cardboard of the book structure, but I figured these simple stitches would be faster, and work just fine.
Second, on a slightly larger tear on the "spine" corner, I did some randa stitching! This actually draws from a style of embroidery I'm almost completely unfamiliar with, most popular in Brazil, so I may be labeling it wrong. If you know better, let me know! It's a sort of baseball-stitching like process, I was roughly following this video as a tutorial: https://vm.vxtiktok.com/t/ZT8TNMKw9/
and also this one to understand how to get started: https://vm.vxtiktok.com/t/ZT8TNrMML/ (Excuse the tiktok links, but I am not immune to the allure of short video on occasion! I even have posts of my own, every now and again)
I actually need to do similar rim-lining on the other three corners, as the adhesive is starting to come off, and that'll hold it still enough to solve the problem.
Also, some miscellaneous adventures in hemming patches properly! A process that proved MUCH simpler once I found my rolled hem foot. These two patches came out quite good, actually! straight stitching, for the most part, and relatively even folds.
It was much simpler to get the hems just so on a larger patch like this one, thankfully! I'm actually really pleased with the way this one in particular came out, and hopefully, I can make something pretty with it on the thigh of the jeans it goes with. (yes, that's why the patches are numbered, so I can keep track of where they go in the stack!)
Even despite how well things went overall with the patches, I still fumbled, got a bit hasty in trying to get the corner of one of the later patches through the machine. Said haste had me trying to shove shove, cram cram the fabric through the foot to get it hemmed, turns out, don't do that! Results in bending the needle on my machine! Oof!
Luckily, the machine came with some spare needles, so it only slowed me down a little bit!
#fabric arts#sewing#making#mending#visible mending#solarpunk#denim#novel bookwallet#book wallet#queue.queue#a thousand words#sproutleboople#nesterian lifestylings#I have such a love hate relationship with this wallet tbh#It's such a delightful design!#little book! and it comes in so many different fun public domain covers!#but also it uses vinyl “leather” which I've consistently had a major beef with#honestly before I decided to kinda just go for it with the embroidery thread I actually considered throwing this out since it was busted#but then I realized 'hey wait a minute: they use thread to bind books'#so I figured it was worth a shot! plus if it worked I'd keep that much more plastic outta the landfill#that said if the next set of stitches don't stop the continued delamination of the adhesive I'll still consider getting another#because they debuted the phantom of the opera design after the kickstarter happened and that's how I wound up buying mine initially#they even do a version that holds a tiny journal alongside your wallet things which is Tempting Major#honestly if they had gone with actual leather over plastic I would have no hesitation about recommending them!#tee bee aech if you don't mind the plastic flaking eventually they're actually fantastic#it's just when I buy a wallet I want to not buy another for as long as is feasible y'feel?

Also I started listening to the recording of tmbptmbg today and at the end of the second hour they were talking about how there are people requesting from all over the world because someone requested from the Philippines and then one of the hosts said about the requests that "There was one from Poland. From Ray"... ME MENTION!!!!!!! HOLY SMOKES!!!!!!!
#actually the one big reason why i'm making such a big deal out of this is that i requested where your eyes don't go#and i also said in my text requesting it that i'm doing so in hopes that they play it during the show i'm going to in two days#i actually did NOT think they would play it though. they were playing it in the us and australia but not in the uk as far as i knew#i did not know yet that it would return as an encore during the show on the next day so a day before mine#AND THEN THEY PLAYED IT AGAIN. DURING MY SHOW#and wait i did not mention yet that i had high hopes for finding some tmbg vinyl / cds here especially flood#because i figured that out of all the places outside of the us where i could have even a sliver of a chance to do that#it would have to be in the uk. because that's the place where birdhouse in your soul and flood were once so popular. right#and what do i find in one shop i pass by randomly the day after the show?? FUCKING. FLOOD. . ON VINYL#maybe some sort of greater benevolent force does exist and decided to grant all my wishes this time#like this is actually crazy to actually to think about. how on earth.#if thats not fate then i dont know what it is <- doesn't actually believe in fate. or didn't until this point at least /hj#i'm the world's unluckiest girl until i suddenly get so lucky that i don't know what to make of that cause it's like. what#but ok more of all that madness is to be properly analysed soon of course#goosepost

nothing better than opening up instagram to see what those two silly guys are up to now
#my data isnt letting me easily load or save images but imagine im posting this w that gif of the woman at the computer clicking on smth#thats how it feels opening one of their reels#i really love noticing when theyre together for like an interview or a video or something#that there are often times when ron is talking and russell is just vibrating with the energy to say what he wants to say#its like you know he was so ready to pull out the vinyl discs and say his lines. younger brother behavior at its finest#i wonder sometimes abt their sibling dynamic its so funny sometimes#like do you think ron knows russell gets like that and that's why he talks slow just to piss him off. just brotherly things#im making up 90% of this but they are fascinating#also is russells anime figurine collection growing or is that glass case just particularly jam packed at the moment#they made the box set to fuel russells strange addiction (trinkets)#and pay for rons mountain dew#id love to know what non-sparks followers think when i post abt sparks. what can i say theyre insane in the best way

Here come the planes...
#wait for it#maria nocheydia#remix fashion#o superman#big choon#this has been stuck in my head since i encountered earlier this week#not sure why I couldn't just grab the clip and post instead of adding my useless visual edits but have been feeling fidgety#you may be subject to more of this as she's been dropping this track in her sets recently so slightly different mix ins and outs#and mixing like this makes me a less of a vinyl mix snob#I like seeing the seams show especially when it also doesn't take from the vibe#I would say#this is how we roll on the weekend#but tonight i'm going to the ballet#but that's dancing too
