"Another one of those Outset traditions," Tetra smirked, slurping the juice off of a freshly-cut hydromelon slice. "Let him have it".

"Yeah, we do that all the time!", Link started signing so enthusiastically he completely failed to notice the slice offered to him, "When you taste the first fruit of the season, someone gotta pinch your ears, otherwise it just doesn't count! Ha, if only Grandma was here, she'd tear my ears off by now".

Ganondorf considered the tinging eartip for a moment, and then suggested nonchalantly:

"Hm. Must be why your sister has ears pointier than what half of Hylian nobility used to have".

The kids exchanged brief looks of bewilderment, only to drop on the sand, giggling and hollering, as if it was the best joke they've ever heard — and the joy in their laughter was so infectious, Ganondorf couldn't help but feel the corners of his own mouth raise ever so slightly. Thankfully, the smile was easy enough to hide by biting into his own piece of hydromelon.

The boy was right. The produce from their island was the sweetest the ocean had to offer.

...

Behold! A piece I've been working on on-and-off since September, if not August. As y'all probably know, I rarely go for backgrounds, and almost never bother with shading, so this was quite a challenge for me... But I am incredibly pleased with the final result.

The whole ear-pinching thing is a real tradition we have in our family! Probably a regional thing, not sure. Either way, I thought it fit the setting well, with how much ado is usually made over ears and whatnot.

Consider this a teaser for my AU ;^).

Hello friends! I'm excited to announce my first ever Kickstarter project: The Interstellar Invertebrates enamel pin collection! For all the spineless critter lovers out there.

The collection features 5 different hard enamel pin designs: The rubber ducky isopod, the common cuttlefish, the sea slug willan's chromodoris, the western honey bee and the moon jellyfish.

I had a few prototypes of the isopod pin made in preparation for this project and they came out like this:

disturbing

I was writing a post and at the end I was adding tags, as I do, and I typed the singular first person pronoun, I, and a list of tags popped up as suggestions that took me the fuck out. It was so disturbing I took a screenshot.

[image ID: a list of suggested tags, screenshotted. It's titled "popular" and the list is "I want to [star emoji]ve" "i wanna lose weight" "i sell content" "i love him"]

I wanna star-emoji-ve???? Well there's some pro-ana shit for you.

I don't know if the kids these days remember this but back in Livejournal around the era of strikethrough (the '07-'09 time period is where I remember noticing it) there was a movement to censor pro-self-harm blogs, that were support groups mostly supporting one another in more and more extreme anorexic/self-destructive/eating-disordered behaviors.

This is absolutely that. And they were like "it's self-expression" and everyone else in the world was like "it is actually a toxic encouragement of self-harm" because they were like, concretely instructing one another and recruiting vulnerable people to join them in ways to literally starve to death, they were support groups for killing yourself more or less, and so those tags would occasionally get banned or delisted or removed from search or whatever, but remember this was very early in the history of such things, and there was no algorithm. But people did use the browsing of blogs' "interests" to find one another, it was a feature of how Livejournal worked, and there wasn't a lot of moderation but the deactivation or delisting of those self-harm-encouraging tags were a hotly-contested bit of debate.

And so they got more creative, and found other ways to find one another, and people starved to death or otherwise irreparably damaged their bodies and their mental health and so on. I cannot emphasize enough, this was not fiction. These were not fictional stories depicting fictional scenarios that weren't happening, these were real people posting stories and encouragement and photographs of their real selves, showing off how much damage to themselves they were doing, concretely encouraging one another to do the same. This was not fiction.

But they kept finding new ways to talk about it so it couldn't be censored.

And then LJ deleted blogs for posting about fiction instead, and we all kind of forgot about it and moved on.

Highly displeased to find that it's all alive and well on Tumblr, to the point that it's the number one suggestion when I type the fucking first-person pronoun into the tag field, and I can't opt out of seeing that. COOL.

Alright it's time for the first photo dump of Binderary 2024!

Started off by making some author copies of a collab that happened in 2022 (I've had this project in the works since then.... we're not going to talk about it :x ). All fics were named after songs and the idea was to make a 'mixtape.

All books have similar yet different pink covers and I got to use a foil quill for the first time with... mixed success. (To be fair, I opened it and went 'yeah I can do this' with limited practice so that's on me)

AND I got to use Church paper (warm white, I don't think I'm ready for cream yet) and let me say I am obsessed with it now!

As for the works themselves and the creative titles, we have:

Wet Dreamz by kweenkatsuki, now kweenkatsuki-fics

One of Them Will Destroy the Other by kingkatsuki

A WHOLE FOUR PART SERIES by katsukikitten Hills Have Eyes E-GIRLS ARE RUINING MY LIFE She's a God Dark Red

If you look closely, each cassette has ABCD for which part it is

And Demons, and Dancing on my Own, by bakugotrashpanda

And finally, the main title art

I tried to keep all the art in the same style to keep the cohesion.

The two things I'm most excited about this year is getting to use the new finishing press I made (is that what they're called?) where I got the CLEANEST edges to date

and @rat-juicee gifted me a new stamp for my books! I have been WAITING for February so that I can make everything in my to be bound pile and use this!
