#O.G. Style

Personally, I envisioned The Flash's series finale involving a scene with Barry, Caitlin, and Cisco all teaming up in the field again, with Iris on comms in the Cortex, Kamilla and Joe helping somehow from the S.T.A.R. Labs van, close to where the O.G.s are doing their thing, the JV Squad being Somewhere Else, idc where, just not in this scene, Mark being long gone past the point of anyone mentioning or thinking about him, and Starlight by Muse playing in the background.
#The Flash#O.G. Team Flash#Killblaine#and then the music changes eventually of course but Starlight would be GREAT for getting the action started#O.G. Team Flash can either all be fighting the villain(s) together or they can divide and conquer#maybe it starts out like the would-be season 6 finale and then transitions into something more like the season 4 finale#(next-to-last episode of season 4?)#(whenever they stormed A.R.G.U.S. idk)#or maybe they start out split up and then all come together for a fight scene#maybe Kamilla's job is directing Cisco through a large facility where he has to hack/take something#and Caitlin is either off freeing hostages or fighting off villain henchmen trying to get into the building#while Barry confronts the Big Bad head-on and fights them/keeps them monologuing long enough for Caitlin & Cisco to do what they need to do#Caitlin has ice powers in this btw#with the turn the show took a few seasons back it wouldn't have been doable anymore#but I'm still attached to the idea that Frost was just Caitlin's repressed side#and Caitlin would eventually figure herself out and come into her own#taking on Frost's powers and confidence and becoming a balanced combination of both sides#who likes dressing like a high school principal AND a badass club-going gal#(RIP Caitlin's versatile style)#also yes this goes along with the scenario(s) I imagined for the Reverse Flash's last stand#whether or not he's a part of the season-long plot he'd still be a vital part of the finale#and be taken down in a way that makes sense and is significant to his history with Team Flash (in particular Barry and Cisco)

Hermitcraft Guide: Transcript/accessible version
Tumblr media
Hermitcraft is a vanilla style* multiplayer server that has been running in a season format since 2012. Each season, the players move to a new world and start anew, meaning now’s the perfect time to start watching!
The server is invite only, and new people can join only when the existing Hermits unanimously agree that they would be a good fit. The Hermits have regular meetings to discuss new ideas and any concerns.
I don’t recommend watching every episode by every Hermit. There’s shows like HermitCraft Recap to keep you up to date! Don’t feel obligated to watch everything, just have fun!
* the server is mostly unmodded, but in recent seasons, the Hermits have been implementing custom items and texture packs for the sake of storytelling
Individual hermit descriptions under the cut
Descriptions are all edited by myself, with some contributions from other people :)
Tumblr media
Hermit: BdoubleO100
Quote: “Axe wielding maniac, that’s me!”
Flags: USA

He enjoys confusing other people with strange antics.
Tumblr media
Hermit: Docm77

Flags: Germany
Description: A bit of an intense guy, Doc is unafraid to play the scary villain. Don’t let that fool you – he’s a big softie. His Twitter is 50% “hey who wants to see the game-breaking death machine I built” and 50% about his adorable kid, nicknamed “Doccy”

Flags: Canada, Bisexual
Description: Gem is a talented builder with an appreciation of cute aesthetics that’s matched only by her thirst for blood. She’s truly earned the descriptor “Geminislay.”

Tumblr media
Hermit: Grian
Quote: “Not everything I do has to start a war, okay? Sometimes I just want to start a society of sewer mole people.”
Flags: United Kingdom
Description: Grian always builds big and pranks bigger. He delights in nothing less than being a public nuisance. This starts (good-natured) wars within the server repeatedly.
He’s very social, but is basically glued to Mumbo and Scar. Infamously never bothers with the backs of his builds.
Tumblr media
Hermit: Impulse SV
Quote: "I hate being bad at stuff!"
Flags: USA
Description: Impulse gets a reputation for being super nice all the time but he will hold a grudge forever.
He once moved his entire base up by one block because he thought it would make it look better (it did)
One season he ate crystals.

Tumblr media
Hermit: Hypnotizd
Quote: “And then I found an enderchest here, it’s got a lot of good stuff in it!”
Flags: USA
Description: Hypno's one of the more reserved Hermits, sticking to himself (+ bothering xB and Jevin). He's extremely laid-back and has a little bit of a deadpan silly sense of humor. He’s a very observant guy who builds geometric and rustic creations. His post-annotated runs of the minigame Decked Out 2 are great if you want to see someone actively break down how they play!
[Description provided by anon]
Tumblr media
Hermit: Iskall85
Quote: “Let’s not end it on a goodbye, let’s end it on a Hallo”
Flags: Sweden
Description: A hardworking builder and redstone engineer. Loves making minigames, most of which revolve around gambling. Iskall is a dedicated hater of diorite blocks. Creator of the Vault Hunters modpack and server(s), which he has spent most his time playing recently.

Quote: “Sufficiently advanced bothering-each-other is indistinguishable from teamwork”

Tumblr media
Hermit: iJevin
Quote: “It’s actually pretty straightforward and almost easy. Sometimes.”
Flags: USA
Description: Unashamed. Just in general. A real hard worker who’s willing to destroy a massive project and start over. This commitment carries over into prank wars, which escalate to truly ludicrous heights.
Tumblr media
Hermit: Keralis
Quote: “Let’s take the Black Death. I like the sound of that.”
Flags: Sweden, Poland
Description: Keralis favours modern, industrial-styled builds that carry the impression of wealth and prestige. His creations always have a strong sense of life to them. Keralis has a habit of referring to the others with silly nicknames such as “Shashwammy” and  “Bubbles”,
Tumblr media
Hermit: PearlescentMoon
Quote: “Yeah, I’m a little suspicious of myself to be honest.”
Flags: Australia

A long-time friend of Grian, she joined HC in season 8 and fits right in, with a unique energy that’s full of fun. She is always up for a light bit of pranking or teasing, with unstoppable chaotic energy when she’s up at 5am for events.

Tumblr media
Hermit: Mumbo Jumbo
Quote: “If I forget, slap me. With a cold, vegan fishcake”
Flags: United Kingdom

Tumblr media
Hermit: GoodTimesWithScar
Quote: “A laugh is worth far more than a diamond.”
Flags: USA
Description: Scar’s building skills and storytelling will make believe in magic and want to see what he’ll do next. Scar can pull pranks and act the villain as good as anyone else on Hermitcraft, but no matter what role Scar is playing, you will have a good time. He’s banned from Canada, so he banned the nation of Canada from his theme park.
Scar IRL has a chronic disease that he’s very open about, and uses a wheelchair. Check out his day in the life videos!
[Description provided by anon]
Tumblr media
Hermit: Rendog
Quote: “Have a lovely day warmbloods, I’m off to sharpen my bones.”
Flags: United Kingdom, South Africa
Description: Ren is the hermit most likely to jump in to some over-the-top storytelling, mixing it with his regular content for some impressive arcs. He’s played a lot of roles, from mind-controlled business tycoon to time travelling hippie.
Tumblr media
Hermit: StressMonster101
Quote: “Come and chase me boys! I’m going to murder you!”
Flags: United Kingdom
Description: Stress is known for describing everything she loves as “gorgeous!” It’s definitely her catchphrase.
She uses a lot of pink and purple, and loves bright fantasy aesthetics. She’s closest with Iskall, who she will bother at every opportunity.
Tumblr media
Hermit: Tango Tek
Quote: “Would I put a tu-tu on my Fifi? Come on!”

Tumblr media
Hermit: VintageBeef
Quote: “I respectfully decline your creepy ways.”
Flags: Canada
Description: Beef is the most enthusiastic user of the mechanic that allows players to make massive builds into tiny map-based pixel art. He uses this for a lot of different purposes, from wallpaper to custom card games. It takes a lot of dedication, which he has in spades. He's oblivious in the best way possible. He’s walking in circles, he’s misplacing items, he’s having fun.
[Description provided by two anonymous contributors]
Tumblr media
Hermit: WelsKnight
Quote: “I’ve got a fever and the only prescription is trading card games.”

Tumblr media
Hermit: xBCrafted
Quote: “Awwww yeah!”
Flags: USA

Tumblr media
Hermit: XisumaVoid
Quote: “I’ve got derp on the mind”
Flags: United Kingdom
Description: Xisuma tends to pick a theme for his big projects and always wears a matching costume. He describes himself as a big derp, and no one agrees on how to pronounce his name.
He doesn’t reset his episode number each season, so he’ll be starting season 10 with episode #1128! Xisuma is the server’s admin, which is a big responsibility without the powertrip due to the Hermits’ commitment to group decision making.
Tumblr media
Hermit: ZombieCleo
Quote: "I'll break you legs"
Flags: United Kingdom, Bisexual. Cleo uses She/They pronouns, but I do not know if they identify as nonbinary.
Description: Cleo enjoys detail work, being the number-one user of the posable armour stand tweak, which she uses to make dioramas and statues. They have a rather dry, mature sense of humour. Formerly a schoolteacher. Cleo is close friends with Joe, and the two regularly stream activities such as crafting together
Tumblr media
Hermit: Zedaph Plays
Quote: “Is this a bad idea? Yes. Am I gonna do it anyway? Yes.”
Flags: United Kingdom
Description: Focuses more on making his own fun than on traditional builds. Zedaph is the human embodiment of an explosion happening in another room and hearing someone yell out "it's fine!". A very polite and confusing mad scientist. He does the wildest things just because he can. His editing style is fun and creative, featuring stop-motion montages.
[Description provided by sudden-memory-loss and anon]
New hermits:

Tumblr media
Hermit: Skizzleman

_
Tumblr media
In Loving Memory of
Hermit: Tinfoil Chef
Flags: USA
Description:
A beloved member of Hermitcraft since season 2, TFC passed in 2022.
“Five blocks at a time…
Punctuated with a torch…
Five more once again…
TinfoilChef worked at his own
speed, in his own way…
May we all remember him
in our own ways by striving…
to live unhurried by unwarranted comparisons to those around
and bring joy to others
making the art we want to create.”
[Poem by an anonymous Hermit, likely Joe]
Thank you for reading!

End game
Like all Ed features, End Game is Haylor. (Ed, the O.G. Haylor MVP) it was written a few weeks after HS1 was released. Unlike other Rep songs that were revisited and have Joe references, even when they started before they met. In fact the film clip is overtly Haylor. (below) in the BTS (at 1:55) Taylor’s gets text with a scrabble move, she considers, says it is a 'tight game' and decides to leave the other player suspended. Ed blushes.
youtube
When OOTW was released Harry’s IG went B&W for 2 years until he started solo promo, apart from a few scrabble boards (in screaming colour) I have a theory he & Taylor played remotely which is why they are colour and she included this.
Here’s some footage of Joe playing scrabble. ….oh sorry, wait, that’s Harry Styles: fan of Scrabble and texting T Swift. Look at her here in the reputation book with the players names covered.. I wonder why lol
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Timeline
Ed Sheeran said he wrote his part in a hotel room in New York. He told Audacy that he went to her RI home and heard Rep then the next day wrote it in a hotel in NY. 14 July 2017. (2 months after HS1’s release) (He was also at Taylors NY Apartment 7 March)
I was playing Mohegan Sun in Connecticut, she has a place in Rhode Island, which isn't too far so she hits me up I go around. She plays me what turned out to be Reputation and End Game and I was like man this is I really like, can I do a verse can I like do a rap verse and she was like yeah for sure. So the next day i kind of I remember I was in bed and sort of woke up and i got my laptop out but the song just looped it and I wrote wrote this verse and I went in with max martin who she did the song with and recorded it and then future the verse and then Taylor wrote a verse and then yeah we shot we shot a video".
Film Clip
The film clip is less subtle in being Haylor, it takes place in:
Miami, where HS and TS hung out at Courtney Cox's house
Tokyo, where HS went on a 1D break as his first trip overseas without the band
London, where Ed, HS and Joe all live.
Tumblr media
Haylor Easter eggs:
0:04 the ferris wheel looks like the winding wheel.
0:21 she is a passenger in a car at night
0:44 she wears a very Harry Gucci Jumpsuit
0:48 there is a polaroid
1:10 she is a single kitten mother, except Olivia is in her Rep Era lol
1:20 the 1989 Rolling Stone shoot, now in the dark with fireworks.
2:09 Taylor 'A' Swift wears an "A" shirt see: Harry's A tattoo. (When asked Harry said "uh... for my mum" which Louis said "No it's not not it's for a mystery blonde" (2:40)
2:39 she wears the Red/WANGBT hat and cane. She also wears the jacket from her red rolling stone cover.
3:13 there are 2 white bird statues that look like his chest tattoos.
3.30 she references the 1D One Thing MV bus scene
3:43 she visits this kebab shop, a similar one with a made up but similar name is in the 1D midnight memories MV. This tik tok is also about this being an ex’s kebab shop
youtube
Lyrics
I wanna be your endgame, endgame Big reputation, big reputation Ooh, you and me, we got big reputations, ah And you heard about me, ooh I got some big enemies (yeah) Big reputation, big reputation Ooh, you and me, we'd be a big conversation, ah
HS and TS have both had big reputations as long as they’ve know each other. Now both A-listers dating is a much bigger conversation than one dating anyone else. Her enemies of Scooter and the Kanye are relevant to the music industry.
I don't wanna touch you (I don't wanna be) Just another ex-love (you don't wanna see) I don't wanna miss you (I don't wanna miss you) Like the other girls do
New Years Day Taylor sings “Please don't ever become a stranger, Whose laugh I could recognize anywhere”.
I don't wanna hurt you (I just wanna be) Drinkin' on a beach with (you all over me)
Harry Styles Debut was released May 2017, 6 months before Rep. Harry told Radio 1 he had played it for Ed earlier. The album lays out a lot of hurt between them Taylor may not have known about in that detail. Drinking, beaches and being all over each other are solid Haylor themes, see Video.
I hit you like, "Bang" We tried to forget it, but we just couldn't
Haylor hit like a bang, they met in march, were together almost immediately, he had multiple tattoos that reference her by May and they both had new albums with songs they still perform about each other by October and November. Toe were friends for a long time first and were not yet public.
Reputation precedes me, they told you I'm crazy I swear I don't love the drama, it loves me And I can't let you go, your handprint's on my soul It's like your eyes are liquor, it's like your body is gold You've been calling my bluff on all my usual tricks So here's the truth from my red lips
There’s a lot of Haylor references here:
They told you I was crazy, I swear I don’t love the drama is a reference to 1989’s Blank Space
I can’t let you go, Handprints on my soul fits is a theme in 1989, MMIH, Stockholm syndrome, ready for it?, Harry’s House.
The truth from my red lips refers to Style, Two Ghosts and other lip related lyrics.
Finally Taylor uses gold to describe HS in Gold Rush: “Everybody wants you, But I don't like a gold rush, What must it be like, to grow up that beautiful?”

Note
County Drakul could have an underground catacombs maze with humanoid bats and a grotto with a Phantom of The Opera style lair with the titular Phantom as a meet and greet character.
As a matter of fact, the maze attraction in County Drakul is called Into the Catacombs, though its scares are based more on skeletons and ghosts than bat-people or the Opera Ghost. I could probably find room for the O.G. in The Laboratory though! I haven't fully developed that ride scene by scene yet.

Whacking is another dance style that originated in the gay clubs of the 70s but while vogue was inspired by magazines and poses , whacking was inspired in the dramatic poses and acting of golden age Hollywood stars , the show Batman (hence the name whacking ), martial arts moves ( some arm moves resemble nunchucks) , and also silent movies. In the video is O.G Viktor Manoel (he is Mexican / American ) he toured with David Bowie in the glass spider tour , he is the last O.G left 🥲

Cap'n O.G. Readmore
Tumblr media
You know, I seem to have found a balance between thoughts of animated adaptation animals and rubber hose animated animals today. When these animals are used for educational purposes, there seems to be a general understanding of the use of these animals to cater toward children. Some would say furrybait starts young and allows children to accept anthropomorphic animals as a form of reality in some sense. I mean there's a reason that when the blog started, I regarded Don Bluth as more or less the father (really emperor) of furrybait, leading him to be my aspiration in terms of furrybait curators. I mean the difference between him and myself is that he creates and I critique. And that he's heterosexual. I regard Don Bluth with this credit, as a lot of his anthropomorphic designs along with the recession-era Disney cartoons created a very specific style mantra for anthropomorphic designs before the nostalgia of Chuck Jones' animations hit Spielberg to produce TinyToons and Animaniacs. The design language seems to always go in between these two schools of thought, all of them working together to cater to one demographic: children.
This educational cat that exists as a form of bringing adaptations to children is no different from these schools of thought. Especially, as the creators seem to draw more from Bluth/Disney design language rather than Spielberg. I like his little library iconographic button on his jacket and the design language of this character overall. I mean overall, it's a cute design with a good message: to read more books (something some people still struggle doing). Rock on, Cap'n O.G. Readmore.

What is in my gym bag?!
Welcome back to my blog! Today I will be discussing gym accessories and gym products often advertised in the media. 
As a highschool student with 2 jobs, oftentimes I have to squeeze in my workout right after school, right after work or any other time where I was “conveniently out”. My school day typically begins with me carrying out my backpack, school lunch, work lunch and clothes, and my massive gym bag to my car since I won’t get the chance to get home throughout the day. 
What could you even possibly have in your gym bag? To be fair, when I started working out, I would show up to the gym in my gym clothes from my house, with nothing but my phone, my airpods and a water bottle. As my fitness journey progressed over the years, it seems that my gym essentials had evolved too. Here are my gym essentials as a 17 year old girl with a loaded schedule:
My gym shoes! No I do not mean powerlifting shoes, I am not a powerlifter, but I mean my converse. Personally, although converse aren’t my ideal shoe outside of the gym, they are my favorite in the gym, I have white and black! Converse can be stylish, with the different styles and colors and overall very large selection, however since these have been my O.G shoes for the gym, it seems that I always associate them with the gym… Being flat and light (not the platforms), they offer incredible stability for lifting purposes. It is important to find shoes that accommodate the natural shape of the foot for optimal performance. Fun fact, some lifters even prefer to deadlift and squat barefoot, for the reason being that the natural human foot shape is ideal for balance. 
Tumblr media
 Here are my "not-so-white" converse at the gym, since I wear them everyday.
Pre Workout or energy drinks… Sometimes my days are over 12 hours long away from home, which can be both emotionally and physically draining. For that reason, occasionally the consumption of caffeine can significantly improve both my performance, mood, motivation and my experience in the gym. I used to consume this product every day, however I soon realized that the negative side effects of daily consumption can be mentally detrimental... Especially for those who have ADHD or anxiety, the caffeine amplifies the effects of the disorders. Now that I have limited not only the frequency of consumption but also the amount of caffeine I do love these drinks. Some of my favorites are Batch 27, specifically the orange creamsicle flavor and Monster Tropical Punch… 
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Lifting belt… I have the lifting belt by Upper Gear in the color lavender, which is cute and supportive. Lifting belts are used by lifters who want or require more back and core support creating a superficial brace in order to prevent injuries and improve performance. This is absolutely not required in the gym and if anything learning how to brace is very important. More experienced lifters typically use them, as they already know how to brace themselves yet add extra support.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Lifting straps, I love my lifting straps! Lifting straps are affordable, come in different styles and colors and help tremendously, whether it be to grow muscles or gain strength. Mine are camo from amazon and are for sure one of my essentials. Using lifting straps helps lifters who do not have great grip strength, or really want to isolate a muscle group while eliminating limiting factors. I have always had very frail and small wrists, ultimately limiting my grip strength. However ever since I have been using lifting straps I am able to push out for reps, and increase muscle-mind connection. 
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Helimix shaker! Every lifter knows the nasty smell of protein from an unwashed shaker, or the annoying sound of the metal mixer ball inside. Ever since I discovered the helimix, cleaning it has been simplified, and no more metal ball clinking. The helimix is a shaker available on amazon, and is said to have a scientifically explained shape that naturally creates a spiral of the liquid and thus mixing the contents smoothly. Some say it is a placebo effect, however I believe that the helimix truly mixes my contents successfully. I have the pink one, as well as the teal one, and use them for both my protein shakes, pre workout, and to carry my other daily beverages. 
Tumblr media
I also carry some “not necessarily gym-related” items, such as makeup, deodorant, a hair brush, and most importantly my beats! I mean yes, my beats are so important for my lifts and I could not do it without them, however they are also a huge part of my whole life… Any given chance I will be listening to music. Which is why I excluded it from my gym essentials list. They are an essential part of my life, period. To conclude this blog, no gym accessories are actually required to reach your goals, it is important to discover what works for you. Nothing in fitness is “one size fits all.”

Fashion Friday
It’s time for Fashion! As we enter fall, why not share some fashions to help you pick out a new style? These fashion ads and etc. are from various issues of The American Hebrew and Jewish Tribune dating from March-August 1932. The American Hebrew began publication in 1879 and underwent several mergers and name changes over the years, now publishing under the title Washington Jewish Week. It was only published under the title The American Hebrew and Jewish Tribune from 1932-1935. 
Many of the ads feature ladies in stylish-looking trench coats and double-breasted dresses, while the single men’s ad advertises golf clothes (men be golfin’, am I right?). You could even knit your own sweaters, if you were so inclined! There’s also a fashionably-dressed lady advertising “O.G.” cigarettes and an ad for a fashionable car: the Lincoln V-12 Cylinder, made in Detroit, which cost $4700 at the time. 
I hope these fashions inspire you to attain new heights of stylish dress this fall! While they are allegedly fashions for the summer months, the trenches seem very fitting for blustery fall days to me!

saw the "your (blank) should be your 2nd priority" meme for the millionth time now and finally wondered, "well, what's the o.g. message?" given the facebook post style, i figured it would be sumtin like, "your man should be your 2nd priority/your 1st should always be your children" and i was already rolling my eyes abt it... turns out it's something else entirely:
Tumblr media
[ID: The OG priority meme, which says, "your boyfriend/girlfriend should be your 2nd priority. Your 1st should always be your rap career." End ID]

Arting will be slower than it already is 🥲 as the new semester starts soon, and I really feel I need to buckle down and design a more definite style. I think im too dependant on the o.g. designs from the show.
