#The Spring of Middle Ages

Steve and Billy being landscaping rivals.
Billy has the lushest, most overflowing flower beds on the block. He also believes in letting his lawn grow wild and free to help the bees cross pollinate and thrive.
Steve is his neighbor, and he is a zealous minimalist. His beds are sparse. Accented with the most precisely carved shrubs and topiaries. He mows his lawn weekly. His edges are pristine.
Billy despises when Steve's lawn clippings get blown onto his precious spring buds, choking out their light. He's dumped his neighbor's moldy pile of sludge on his welcome mat. Steve didn't get the hint. Billy received a tangled mess of dandelions and assorted weeds on his own mat a few days later.
That evening Billy carved an asymmetrical line through the expertly manicured hedgerow dividing their properties.
War.

My main takeaway from the new Lonely Island song is that Andy can pull off extreme colour coordination to a degree that only the main protagonists of Wes Anderson movies do and someone's gotta capitalise on that.
#look i'm happy schwartzmann got to be the lead again but if wes works best with anyone it's middle aged funny-sad comedians#we all saw palm springs#he can totally pull it off!!#wes anderson#andy samberg#the lonely island

HELP I CAN'T STOP SEXUALISING OLD BALD MEN (horus lupercal.)
yjou should keep doing it with your full flaming dragon soul. actually this has had me thinking, how old was he equivalent to like, a standard human, by the time of his passing? like obviously primarchs do not age the same as a normal human, but they still age. was he pushing his 40s at that point? and like now in the current time, how old equiv is guilliman?
40s is not old, thats not even half way to 100. ohhh all of the primarchs who died early, unripened fruit plucked before they could truly become plump and fat with sweet beauty how i mourn you.
#i struggle to view middle aged as old... like 80s is old to me.#30 isnt necessarily a spring hen but thats like summertime. thats early summer. 50s is august. 70s is like november. do you understand#insanely rambles about age. i cant believe im only in my 20s i feel like i have lived lifetimes tenfold and i am only just beginning#anyways dilfs / milfs / gilfs 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

I was TAGGED by @moss-wizard for selfie and while today was not the greatest, the prompt of a selfie did get me to go outside to appreciate nature for a minute and pick a tulip from my garden.
And now I tag... Everyone that my phone will let me before the tagging thing craps out on me as usual. All others seeing this please PLEASE assume I've tagged you too. Coz I have. With my heart. And if you don't post your face on the hell site, I will accept any random picture you took this week instead.

Sometimes I think living in the middle ages would be fun and then I remember that no medieval peasant will ever know the lizard brain feeling of freezing in a cold building and then stepping outside to the joy and bliss of warm sunlight
#spazzcat barks#middle ages#medieval#listen air conditioning makes sunlight hit different#in the same way that stepping from freezing house to warm sun differs from freezing winter to warm house#its different okay#one feels like a personal spring#the other feels like a cold blooded creature finding the first sunning rock#its blissful and comfortable and then suddenly yoUR BLOOD IS BOILING BACK IN THE AC BACK IN THE AC

Forgot to introduce my pc for a skyrim campaign that my dear friend redd is running, Urzurza "Zuzu" gra-Ugdula, an orsimer fighter. She's a disaster lesbian, beefy as hell and has no idea how doors work.
She's a very honest person who values honour and bravery more than anything. Her new best friend? The biggest liar in all of Tamriel, Rorin Saelinaerith (who belongs to @cicerosfavouritelistener) <3
#Also forgot to mention that she's 19. A spring chicken#Rorin is 153. They're that one teenager/middle aged person duo at work#oc: urzurza#stellar.artz#my art

Your little friend gave me some insight, and I have decided you could use some sunscreen on that fair skin of yours. Sunburns and skin cancer are no joke! I wasn't sure if you liked the first quilt so I'm working on another... Shiranui-san suggested silvers and dark greens. Do you have any other colors you'd like? Oh! And I have some dried apples and apricots. He said you didn't like sweet things which is an absolute shame, bless your heart... but I hope the fruit is alright!
Hi again, Oba-san. I'm usually covered up enough not to need sunscreen, but again, thank you for your consideration.
The first quilt was... I'm sorry I didn't thank you for it properly last time, I was a bit out of it. You really didn't have to go to Genma about colors, of all things. The quilt was good. Great, even. There's no need for another. And this fruit— I can't possibly take it. I'm feeding myself just fine, so please, there's no need for all this fuss.

will zero finally go back to school... stay tuned and find out
#not to keep using this blog as a diary but ANYWAYS#so got confirmation i'm basically in the middle exit phase so my last day will probably be in mid-december#which is actually really good timing all things considered#so i can either plan to get a new job at the beginning of the new year OR think about going back to school#starting during spring is kind of awkward so unless I find a really good situation i'd probably go for fall of 2024#tuition is obviously something i have to think hard about since i'm also balancing a mortgage... but the benefit of me doing nothing but#work my ass off for the last 4 years is that i do have the money saved. like unless i go to a super prestigious school i can most likely#afford it on my own. ofc the question is am i willing to spend it all for a degree that might not even be of any benefit to me. who knows#i also don't even know what i'd go back for. it wouldn't be pure CS but probably something adjacent or bio-related#another reason I want to go back to school is honestly for social reasons. networking and finding new friends#i'm not the most outgoing person but in an academic environment i was infinitely better at socializing than I am now lmao#and sharing classes with folks will definitely help. i'd definitely pick up TAing again as well if possible#i also talked with my manager a bit about this and he was also like yeah at your age and situation now is actually a really good time#anyways. we shall see#0.txt

Not WF related but who the fuck thought Summer was a good season?!
No, no, no, no, no, no, no-
We're NOT going to act like this summer is different, or that it will be "magical", or "relaxing", let alone ENJOYABLE-
When spring comes around, I don't wanna see ANYONE acting like Summer is going to be a great time.
It's gonna be what it always is: A heatstroke inducing hellscape.
Fuck the sun, and its smothering heat.
#not really warframe#summer time#summer aesthetic#summer fun#spring 2023#“tHe trEEs aRE PiNk”#yeah... for like a week...#before they die and their petals quickly become brown and half rotten#flying around in the breeze to never be seen again until next year#summer is horrible#and the sun doesn't deserve all the love and adoration it gets#where the love for the fucking moon?!#or night time?#it just doesn't make sense to me#we're not in middle ages Europe let's move on

about to cry looking at these photos of roman mosaics....
#no bc it's something about the mosaics that get me compared to statues/busts/etc.#something about the colors and the fact that these artists managed to get somethingto spring to life so masterfully out of literally just#stones on a flat surface.#and the intimacy of some of these mosaics just literally being in like. someone's house or palace#people walked by these random scenes from mythology every day. ate slept lived night next to them.#and because some wall happened to fall the right way or because some structure managed to survive we get to look at it too#just real art that's not insanely unattainable the way that statues are. and not too distant and unrealistic the way some really old art can#be#(at least to me)#just. people making and appreciating beautiful art. only 2000 years ago#shaking crying throwing up....#the art that moves me is always so specific. it's like. this and medieval christian art lmao#anyway im researching this for the writing project i'm working on. which is alt history fantasy in a world that is wayy more influenced by#antiquity (sorry middle ages i love u <3)#very self indulgent of me but sometimes So painful

GOOD EVENING plz enjoy these OLD WINTER (and Blaise!) Doodles dating back to like. 2015 to 2019 ish 😅😅😵😵

That one's from the beginning of this year for a bit that I still haven't posted (as I need to draw Jack and that scares me lol). It's the same one that has the PANIK Jacqueline 🤣🤣🤣
The bunny slippys Winter is my fave and I am so mad I did not date that one bc damn those slippys look GOOD
the too young Blinter doodle directly follows this old gremlin doodle lol.
#dani doodles#crystal springs#winter#winter frost#blaise#blaise frost#blinter#blaise is a suit man as well!!! all kinds of suits!!! all kinds of shapes all kinds of. thingies. the pointy bits#whatever the fuck they are called#winter's vibe is usually cozy warm but like if you were living in the middle ages cozy warm#or renaissance! i think between there#and I GUESS Jacqueline got the love of poofy sleeves from winter lmao#tsc#the blorbos responsible for the other blorbos
