#I should have picked something else

The essay I’m writing for school is an analysis of Phantom blood episode 9… so umm yeah most of this will make zero sense. There is no way to explain the episode without making it seem like I did an entire box of LSD. I literally titled my rough draft “the vampires in this show makes zero sense just roll with it”

As the US election closes in and the final states take to the polls, I want to remind people to turn out and protest.

Yep, protest. Strike, disrupt, be out there on the street regardless of who you voted for or who wins. I expect to see you all out there demanding; access to abortion nation wide, protections against discrimination, free universal healthcare, a free Palestine, anti war, prison abolition, to increase the minimum wage, and for a US free of the electoral college and that counts votes as votes.

Yes, you can say "you should vote for Harris" and do so as much as you like, but do not forget the power you have through your own everyday actions away from the polls and that of protesting. Do not use the excuse that your right to vote means it's somehow more foundational or important than the right to protest. You have the ability to create direct action and that is so so important, please don't just expect a rich representative to stick to their promises every time you vote; you have power too, never forget that.

This system will not change until we, the people, make it. There is NO representative that can ever change the system that allowed them in, and likewise; this system will never allow a candidate that would stop it from continuing and/or ensuring its designated purpose of oppression and subjugation. Resist, regardless of the results.

Long live the resistance.

Roughly 24 hours of progress on my project for this year's Desert Bus Craftalong so far, out of an estimated 180 hours. So we've got a ways to go yet, but I think this moon came out pretty well.

As is tradition, I'm not telling what the subject is, but that silhouette might look a little familiar...

Also, if anyone needs a reminder, today (May 27) is the last day of the Craftalong submission period, so if you're thinking of submitting a craft idea for this year, get it in before midnight PDT!

(Yes, I started this before submissions even open, because if I didn't, I'd never have enough time to finish by the deadline. Cross stitch takes a lot of time! Also I procrastinate working on the pattern a lot.)

Is everyone ready for Feral Fidget Friday? It is after all one of our favourite days of the week... for good reason.

Does this count as a fidget? It does now on the basis that..

Its his favourite notebook

Its the blue coat of glow from S9

He looks hot here

Haaannnddsssss

Fuck he's hot

Also... do they have to give him jackets with extra large pockets to fit his notebook in?? I could never fit a notebook in the pocket of any of my jackets

We need to add this to our list of questions.. 😀

I watched Avengers: Age of Ultron (apart from I skipped some overly long action sequences) and I am not sure so can someone tell me whether or not Tony Stark was the baddy in that film? Because about halfway through I was sure he was but then it was maybe just an evil robot after all and I am confused because either this film was surprisingly subversive or it was about robots hitting each other.

if escape rooms as team building exercises became popular im not sure if id be more excited or terrified

I see a lot of compassion for (fanfic) writers lately and I'm glad about it. I didn't wish it any other way. It takes a lot of time and a lot of research and practice. It's a lot of work, it should be honoured.

I still wish this compassion and understanding extended more towards (fan) artists as well.

People interact longer with written words and it's easier to genuinely connect with it for most people. And I often get the feeling that most people know by now as well that a lot of work goes into it. But I still don't always get the impression that people realise the same thing is true for art. You just end up looking at it for a few seconds. A few minutes if it really catches your eye, or several times if it speaks to you enough to turn it into your lock screen. But the interaction is so brief and fleeting in most cases. And I get the impression that as an artist you're not allowed to complain over not feeling valued. you're not allowed to air your grievances, or people will just block you and not reblog from you again because there's someone else, someone better, already around the corner.

Through all the ways you survive this phase,

it is unrewarding every day!~

You are caught in the chains

of a bot-like game,

looping on and on, it's all the same,

it's always never changing!~

This is most likely more me being mentally disabled then it is the fault of Lost islands layout but i felt if i lost sight of my carer id have no idea how to get anywhere

Like there was a moment i thought i had gotten lost cause i couldn't see where Toxo was and i had to just hold myself back from freaking out because the whole place felt so confusing

He was actually only a little ways behind me getting water though XD so I'm probably just being stupid idk

Hey KO, pd said the reason damon named fane.. fane was to honor rika's father since he respected him after realizing her father still wanted to raise him despite his origin. he wasnt named to honor rika but to honor her father.

That's great actually, and it makes sense. Thanks for the clarification.
