Constantly forget that the ceiling and windows are lower in the upstairs room, and think I finally know what people over six feet feel like

#I'm like a giant #Everything is so far away? The windows are lower? The fireplace is lower? I can't visualise furniture in there because my proportions are of #Not that I could get the furniture up the stairs anyway #Ah well that's the least of my problems currently I have one wall that was almost soaking wet the other night due to condensation #Which considering that that's really the only major issue in a house which dates back 400 years I'm trying to be chill about #But I am not succeeding; I'm just wandering around feeling like an utter failure because *checks notes* there is slight damp #which I already knew about because it was on the home report over a year ago when I moved in #And I had people come out and look at it and they told me exactly why and how and when it would happen #I just haven't been able to try their suggestion of the damp-proofing paint because it's winter #But then I'm also concerned because it may be because of a lack of ventilation in the chimney #But I'm going to have reduce the ventilation further because a slug somehow got in #I'm pretty fine with bugs- thank god I'm not scared of spiders because this house has the biggest I have ever seen in my entire life #And I've been to Australia #And there's the odd case of the wasps that kept coming in JUST to die on my windowsill #But slugs are a huge no; I detest them with all my heart and am only slightly better with them now #Because after a few years of mild gardening I a) know they can't catch me (haha slowcoaches) and b) they are good for compost #But they have no place inside my house LEAST OF ALL in the tiny tiny study room on the fourth floor of the building #I'm very very worried about that chimney but I can't open it up to have a look without opening a gigantic can of worms #So we're just going to have to try some tape and some paint and try not to think about the slugs #That's a long way of saying it's an absolutely darling little room and actually the issues on the chimney wall #are basically the only issues in the entire flat #So I really should NOT be complaining but yeah I still feel like I've failed myself and the house and everyone I know #Because a slug got in #The rest of the house is largely bug-proof and the windows the heating the water all work and I have a cosy bed #The roof I'm panicking about a bit but that's because I need to grow a spine and tackle my neighbours like a grown-up not long-term damage #I'm only responsible for part of the building and almost all of it is in good nick and I intend to keep it that way #But I'm still worried and if that little room falls apart it will be my fault but on the other hand it's been there since 1589 so not all me #But everything has been a failure there- none of the furniture fits up the stairs; the floor took three tries to finish; and now wet wall #First world problems EXTREMELY but also hard not to take it personally and feel like I've failed the house #Earth & Stone

How did Treasure Planet manage to come up with the greatest aesthetic in all human history? Victorian elegance plus space-age flair, with just enough dirt and grime and wear and tear to make it feel real? A combination of traditional and computer animation that perfectly embodies the movie's blend of old and futuristic? How does it get any better than that?

#treasure planet #turned it on on a whim #because sylvia's lovers put me in the mood for sailing ship vibes #and it turns out it fits in really well with the north and south space opera i've been thinking about again #it's really hard for me not to give thornton a giant beautiful space sailing ship #(no you can't do it! the point is that they're industrial and purely functional!)#also i've got another post brewing about how treasure planet is an excellent boy's adventure coming-of-age story #and we need more of those because i feel like the genre doesn't exist in the same way these days #but i'm not sure i could say what i mean without getting folks up in arms #so i'm keeping it to the tags

I left the animals behind this weekend (except Belphie, bc he needs meds every 12 hours), and I'm going through withdrawal

#pangur and grim get really stressed out every time we go to my parent's place #because they dont like the car ride and they dont like the giant dog at the destination #so I'm trying to minimize stress by leaving them home under someone else's care

something something giant isopod sharing is caring pass the detritus

inprnt

#giant isopod #marine biology #artists on tumblr #inprnt #I tried coming up with a pun but nothing popped up #cackLES #there's also another print up on inprnt that I'm waiting to post when I have other stuff settled 👀#technically inprnt is getting to see stuff a little earlier haha #also been noticing how my process has changed haha it's interesting #like I'll spend waaaaaay more time now nitpicking/adjusting colors which is fine #but like before when I was still in old process mindset I'd get frustrated and think the colors weren't coming out right #when what I needed was to spend more time figuring it out

honestly. if you decided to create giant fucking corpse-head-spiders to populate your world with then this is exactly what you deserve.

#svsss #scum villian self saving system #shen qingqiu #shang qinghua #sqh #sqq #you know how i said i had just started the first book?#well that's officially old news i could not put it down #i was uncertain about this series cause i'm not generally into isekai but okay yeah it's REALLY funny #like sqh is playing dead at this point #he's not a threat #sqq isn't TECHNICALLY even suppose to know he's a ''traitor'' yet #this is just pure fucking pettiness and i love him for it #i would also feel this way if i had to handle giant head sized spider demons #well i'm gonna have to go and buy the second book tomorrow (quiet prayer that my local bookstore has it in stock)#my art

Sobriety crew gets no mercy from drunk shenanigans

#an art #sdr2 #super danganronpa 2 #Danganronpa the #danganronpa #fuyuhiko kuzuryu #akane owari #nekomaru nidai #Aoi asahina #chihiro fujisaki #mikan tsumiki #Idk I guess I wanted to draw characters being physical. And drunk #And just have fun colouring #Nidai doesn't drink but loves parties anyway and takes the ppl who go overboard home #And then wakes them up at 8 the next day to get some NUTRITION AND ELECTROLYTES AND TO SWEAT OUT THE BOOZE #Akane only drinks super occasionally (fx when it's free or really elaborate like giant fruit cocktails) or when someone challenges her #But she always comes pick up her drunk friends (lightweight Aoi hehe). Starts a fight occasionally....#Girls are allowed to crash at her place anytime. But she wakes up at 5 and you will wake up too #Fuyuhiko doesn't drink but has to do a lot of businesses at bars which he sometimes owns some part in #So he's in the party scene a lot anyway. He takes security seriously and would rather call you a cab than let you leave on stumbly legs #Mikan doesn't know how to say no and gets swept up in drunk people being...not mean to her #Chihiro does not drink often (because it usually ends like this)#Aoi is just a lightweight and gets sick easily #I really wanted to draw Chihiro with a 70s blowout cut but I think it didn't come through lol #Not tagging ships you can make your own meaning I'm tired and I gotta wrap presents. Which i hate doing wish me well

I was trying to eat noodles neatly and for some reason I got sad midway. So I drew them messy eating a biscuit and a strawberry to combat sad noodle blues.

#Ugh I could've made it messier though.#I tried looking at how the strawberry juice look as it's getting bitten. But looking at a closeup of a mouth eating is kinda uncomfortable #I would need to be paid to look at that again. I dropped it and just winged it. Lol #Hm. I should've at least looked up how goopy it should look. But eh. Drawings finished.#I heard wild strawberries are sour? But these ARE giant strawberries. So this might be a special special kind of strawberry.#I'm not like other strawberries. 😤🍓 Lol #I can't remember what an actual strawberry taste. People made it look pretty good though.#Then again people also made dragon fruit look tasty and it turned out it just tastes like a very very desaturated pear. Lol #Hmmmm but also then again. They also make cherries look good and I LOVE cherries. 🤷‍♀️#That ain't the giant Crumbl cookie if anyone's wondering. Connie would probably never spend money on a Crumbl. That's a home made biscuit.#Bruh I can't spell biscuit #I watched someone biting on what I think is a Crumbl and they spit it out. And the pieces sounded like concrete as it hit the table 😆😆😆#connverse #connie maheswaran #steven quartz universe #Lion SU #su #steven universe #skedoobles #Ah. Also scribbling this because I needed a break after burning out 3 hours of a commission's allotted time just figuring out what pose #to settle on. So like I only have five hours left to work on their piece. 😬#my shiz #Waitaminuteee in case I unintentionally relayed it wrong. I'm not going to actually just make that allotted commission time just 5 hours no #I recognize not being able to settle a pose for THAT long in a commission is skill issue on my part so I'm not going to carve out 3 hours #Plus at least now I have poses that I *could* make a YCH out of. The body measures are going to be limited however 🤔

this is the iconic dinosaur horror jurassic park wishes it was

#so there's this person on twitter who is like an infamous drama starter and got a whole forum shut down once #and they wrote this (different) book that's one of the greatest so bad it's good things i've ever read #a few great things that happen in that:#characters get in a car crash and flee on foot. later it's casually mentioned one character had both her legs amputated 'due to fractures'#the character pretending to be american by wearing maga hats that have spy gear built into them #the spy gear in question is an alarm that blares if someone lies in their vicinity #'stuff protocol ' said the queen. 'i'm getting hammered tonight'#the chapter where the prime minister is trying to watch the news so she keeps wandering into bars and tv shops and getting kicked out #the dragon that's casually described as 'about the size of 1000 elephants'#the dragon that's a 'dog dragon hybrid with a chihuahua body and a giant dragon head'#the dragon that's owner punched it in the face and only lets people approach if they 'do the iconic royal wave'#the characters being described as 'the short one' 'the guy with the beard' etc #but there being a lengthy detailed description of the characters in harry potter #'apparently a dragon had burnt essex to cinders in a matter of minutes'#anyways i found out they also wrote (a political parody of indiana jones???) for this book of kids short stories years ago #and you know. we needed to know #so it took me like 4 months to track this precious lost media down #which was very worth it because it turns out it's full of many other iconic gems like CELLAR HELL by Elizabeth Elgie (12)

Zionists want you to conflate Judaism and Zionism. Zionists want you to believe that Judaism cannot exist without Zionism and that all Jews are Zionists. Zionism would have Jews believe that a Jewish state is the only way that they can be safe from antisemitism and will point to any instance of antisemitism as proof that Zionism is the solution- so Zionism wants gentiles to be antisemitic in their support of Palestine. They want you to conflate all Jews with Zionism and the state of Israel, and they want you to treat all Jews regardless of political affiliation as the face of Israel. Antizionist Jews exist, and incidences of antisemitism ostensibly acting against Zionism will not help dismantle the forces propping Zionism up.

Don't do their work for them.

#red rambles #viva palestina #antizionism #i haven't actually seen a lot of antisemitism personally. not recently anyway. but that's more a feature of me not following antisemites #i DO however see a lot of people talking about the people they're seeing throw their support behind antisemites using palestine #as an excuse to conflate all jews with israel #and i cannot stress enough that that is literally what israel and zionist forces abroad WANT.#i am jewish. my entire family is jewish. i want to see palestine free. and i have SEEN how the jewish community gets conflated with israel #both from the inside and out #and i am dead serious when i say that every time someone is antisemitic it strengthens the conviction from people abroad #that it's a terrible sad situation but there's 'no other choice'#if you're being antisemitic you are doing the enemy's work for them. Stop it.#like... look. i am putting this in the tags bc im talking in the tags but i mean this. I do not give a single flying fuck if you personally #are a giant raging antisemite at the moment. Your personal beliefs are your problem and not mine. I do not fucking care. But if you are #being openly and loudly antisemitic *in your support of palestine* you are absolutely not fucking helping. I am so dead serious right now #if you want to raise awareness and you're being antisemitic because of deep held beliefs or whatever i want you to look around and read the #fucking room. Do you understand how much of Israel's international support comes from the idea that they are the only country where jews ar #safe from antisemitism? do you see how every time palestine comes up people point at incidences of antisemitism in anti-genocide actions to #discredit the entire movement? do you not understand how your actions are cutting the movement down at the knees?#i'm jewish and proud of it. i don't like antisemitism. but there's a genocide on and i'd rather work against it than quibble over who i #work alongside. i dont fucking care. you can be as antisemitic as you like in private. stop fucking the movement up.#there are bigger things to worry about here. if i can put aside my own concerns as to who i'm talking to you can hold your tongue #and fight the good fight instead of handing weapons to the people who are trying to fucking flatten gaza.
