...so all this time, I've been applying fixes to card errors for my finalized GX subs often using a combination of AfterEffects and Sony Vegas with scenes involving movement like zooms or panning along the screen... manually keyframing zooms or pans in Vegas after Power-Pinning a card proxy into place in AE...
...when I could've been using Track Motion in AE to wipe out 95% of the work?? Leaving just spot-checking here/there to see how it came out??? How did I only just get the hang of that lmao

@pianolexcat asks:
Tumblr media
And well, this’ll surprise you: I had no idea what this car was! But weeding through the Ford range at the outer edges of my area of expertise ('50s North America), I found out it’s a 1958 Ford Custom. Here's the Wikipedia page about it, and here's the Scottish Wikipedia page I accidentally ended up on when trying to find it again!
Apparently, it wis a caur model name usied baith Ford in the Unitit States an Canadae frae the 1930s tae 1981 - but one fun fact I knew I had for y'all before even knowing that and which I am qualified to talk about as I think it was mentioned in my years professionally studying product design (though I can't promise I didn't bring it up myself) is why I know the year for certain!
See, the Custom name was used in many different ways, but the one that concerns us is what they stamped it on between 1957 and 1959.
Tumblr media
I think we can all agree that's her, right? See the chrome curve at the edge of the roof and the gap between it and the rear windshield, the size and angle of the fins... that's her! But why could it not be a '57 or a '59 then? Easy:
Tumblr media
Because in '57 the taillights, trunk lid, bumper and side trim were all completely different (and same for the front). And if that seems drastic...
Tumblr media
...check it out for '59, where it didn't even retain the same glass.
And here's the kicker: before the fateful year of 1973 when the realization that petrol wasn't actually infinite destroyed the entire concept of America, this was normal. American cars of the '50s and '60s all had some aesthetic change pretty much every year, from a couple distinctive bits for a different look to a completely new body (which admittedly was easier back then with body on frame cars). Why? Because then the showroom cars were always fresh and new and thus prestigious, and used cars never were - you couldn't buy a car with as little as one year without it being an old model, forget something like five. Same reason you still see car models get little cosmetic updates partway into their lifespans, and why so many smartphones needlessly switch up their looks every generation! Of course, you don't see this everywhere because it needs to be a purchase expensive enough that people care and in a market wealthy enough that people can afford a needless upgrade over some flashy new feature or even just to get picky about what feels newer - so for instance old Eastern European cars are... not exactly known for a breakneck update frequency (see the cars below for what a one-year difference looks like in Poland. I'm just kidding, the yellow one is a quarter century newer).
Tumblr media Tumblr media
In fact, I am pretty sure yearly refreshes are the origin of the predominance of referring to a car by year: to people who know enough about cars to know a model's generation, "1996 Miata" is usually just conveying "first generation Miata" with extra steps, so you'd only use it when referring to something that specifcally involves a subsection of that generation's years (e.g. "In my first gen Miata the battery is in the trunk" vs "In my 1996 Miata the oil pressure gauge is basically just a warning light in gauge form"). But in old American cars, every single year was at least somewhat different, so you'd always say " '58 Custom" to tell it apart from a '59 Custom and so on, which I think is where this tradition took hold. In fact, you see it most among Americans and discussion of American cars, with few examples more iconic than the '64 Impala being so famous and oft-mentioned in hip-hop tracks (most famously Eazy E's "cruising down the street in my '64" line) that as soon as '92 you could just say "rolling in my four" and people would know.
Of course, cars changing every year is a nightmare if you, say, bump your car and need a fender they only made for one year, which is why Volkswagen was very proud of rejecting that trend.
Tumblr media
This will seem familiar to fans of the blog, and indeed is, apparently, the ad that inspired the VW Harlekin!
P.S. While normally this post would have gleefully derailed into explanations of model generations nomenclature and lowrider history, I am trying to shorten my posts. (Yes, dear blog newcomers, this is meant to be a shorter post.) Not because I don't want to write about those things - I in fact would LOVE to share the hilarious Subaru eye joke I found and if y'all don't know lowriders you NEED to let me make you one of today's lucky 10.000. It's just that putting all that inside a single post makes it a bitch to follow, a chore to read, and it means I take ages to answer your asks. So going forward, when I touch on potentially interesting topics to expand upon, I will note them and you can (as you always could) ask me to tell you about them through a post submission (or, if you can't, an ask)! Better organization, shorter posts and faster response times make a better future for everyone. Does it show I studied marketing?
Links in blue are posts of mine explaining the words in question - if you liked this post, you might like those!

Chiefs vs Saints | Kansas City, MO | October 7, 2024
Vivienne Westwood ‘Sunday Checked Draped Corset’ - $1,875.00 Vivienne Westwood ‘Meghan Checked Mini Skirt’ - $1,010.00 Vivienne Westwood ‘Belle Heart Frame Jacquard Bag’ - $590.00 Vivienne Westwood ‘Grace Bas Relief Embellished Earrings’ - $177.00 Cartier ‘Agrafe Herringbone Twisted Necklace’ - $27,250.00 Jacquie Aiche ‘Evil Eye Bracelet’ - $5,250.00 Jacquie Aiche '7 Diamond Kate Smooth Bar Bracelet’ - $5,950.00 Wove Made x Michelle Wie West 'Custom Diamond Tennis Bracelet’ - $5,680.00 (starting) Effy Jewelry ’14K Yellow Gold Band With Ruby Heart’ - price not listed Effy Jewelry ‘Baguette Ruby and Diamond V Ring’ - price not listed Shahla Karimi ‘Cloud Offset Pear Ring’ - $3,490.00 Vivienne Westwood ‘Grace Boots’ - $1,270.00
Taylor’s game day fashion expands on her signature style with some “Chief” M.O.’s to soften her presence (as much as one can when you are Taylor Swift, main character of the universe). To achieve this, Taylor established go-to style strategies: Vintage (a +1 to sustainable options), women/locally-owned (to lift up small designers w/ her spotlight), + sentimental accessories (to reinforce her game day presence - to support killa!). 
For this VW plaid ensemble (a brand I associate w TTPD) I tried to understand her possible intention. I assess Chiefs outfits as a “genre” of fashion separate from the music as these outings aren’t about her art. So! 
Since 2009, the NFL has partnered with the American Cancer Society through their “Crucial Catch” program to promote prevention and early detection of cancer. To support the initiative, Crucial Catch merch was designed “in the spirit of the various cancer ribbon colours” to feature a “multi-colored striping pattern” aka … plaid! In weeks 4-6 of the season, each team was assigned their own “Crucial Catch” game to promote the program and have it “come to life visually on the field” (Source: NFL Operations). The Chiefs’ “Catch” day was this day! Players were encouraged to wear gear or clothing that expanded on the plaid design. Fashion is a powerful communication tool and if Taylor, as part of the “Chiefs Kingdom” family, was joining in by donning plaid from a recently favoured designer then kudos for the 2 birds 1 stone!
As for the ‘fit, a matching set is iconic to Taylor’s style vernacular. She popularized it for 1989! I am personally partial to a slimmed-down shoe and given that Taylor changed into a shorter platform post-game, I suspect these boots were not the most comfy. Hair up was also, imo, the right call to let the bustier shape of her top shine. 
If you’ve been following along with Taylor’s fashion, you’ll likely recognize a few of these jewelry pieces as repeats (the bracelets and necklace) or as iconic symbols of a fashion house Taylor has worn a lot recently (the Vivienne Westwood ‘Orb’ earrings).
As a fashion refresher, the symbol seen on Taylor’s earrings and bag is the Vivienne Westwood ‘orb’ logo. After much squinting, I think it’s this embellished pair though will of course update if proven otherwise! The logo is iconic to VW house codes. It was designed to be a take on the Sovereign orb of the British Royal Family and a cheeky reference to Vivienne’s self-described title of “queen” of fashion. But I can certainly see the similarities made to UFOs (especially given the repeat use of the MTV VMA boots seen here that Taylor first wore a UFO abduction tapestry dress by Monse) and wanting to be “down bad” for an Egg.
Taylor opted for some new, glittering accessories at today’s Chiefs game - peel and stick glitter freckle patches.
From polling TSSers themselves, I gathered that these freckle stickers were a bit polarizing. While they are not for me personally, I can admit that I can lean into the pomp and the fun and the adrenaline rush that a woo girl must feel when in her natural habitat screaming about something exciting. And how else to accessorize that excitement but sparkles on your face? Context matters!
Now if she were to try and style these with a polished / elegant street style ‘fit, I’d be a bit more brow raised.

Trigun Explicit Recs!
So it turns out there are too many good fics in this fandom and I maxed out the amount of links allowed in a single post (it's 100 btw) so I decided to split the E rated stuff from everything else, cause it makes sense to me.
I offer you my list of smut, organized by wordcount! Most of which will also give you so many emotions cause what is Vashwood with out self-loathing and biblical references. This is a living document and I update it regularly, so come check back for more recs!!
I tried to tag all the authors who have tumblrs, but if I missed someone pls tag them/let me know!
Any fic that features "+" after the word count is on-going/uncompleted, and they are all listed at the end. As they finish, I will add the final word count and place them accordingly.

The Lord Won’t Forgive Me (But My Angel Will) by natumn - 28k; Vashwood; E; Eriks Vash ❤️; Two years after July, Wolfwood drunkenly stumbles right into Eriks and Lena, and they take him home so he can recover.

Hey friend. I know we all managed to escape the holiday season by the skin of our teeth, but it's time to start thinking about next holiday season. After a couple years, or in some of our cases, a few decades of feral snarls at anyone who comes near your house, people expect you to go out in the world and interact with human beings again. That means you need to update your "talk like a person" list.
When I first started socializing, I thought it would be easy. All I'd have to do is find another person and start talking about the things I liked. Then they'd talk about the things they liked. Then we would be instant friends and throw each other into a fountain and drink coffee together, like on teevee. Unfortunately, it didn't quite happen that way. It turns out that the things other people care about are really boring, and they think that the things I care about are really weird.
To survive, I've developed a sort of party planner kit, but it's only useful when you keep it up to date. Let me explain by way of an example. Here in Canada, a lot of people like ice hockey. It is a perfectly valid sport, but you are expected to have opinions about it in order to have polite discussion with people. I have developed exactly three opinions, and use them at random when interacting with new people. Unfortunately, the opinions need to keep up with the times.
In hockey, as in life, players move on or get injured, teams move to different cities, and the Zamboni® is no longer powered by a propane-fuelled Volkswagen inline four from the 1980s using an overcomplicated carb hat arrangement. See, that last one? I did it again. To help keep this from happening, I have to do some research, and update my bon mots to make sure that they're the bon most they can be. I do it around now, when my motivation is at its peak and it is too cold to interact with any other human beings. After spending about an hour googling for "who is the worst NHL player right now" and "A1 vw rabbit coilover conversion kits for british lever shock cars" – shit, I did it again – I have my inoculation against other people thinking I'm weird. You don't think I'm weird, right?
This can work for all kinds of other sports, and even business events, if you live in a country that hasn't yet invented sports. I strongly encourage you to figure out three facts about something that is popular, and use them in rotation like me. Hell, you can probably get away with two, as long as you immediately make up an excuse to leave as soon as you've run out of ammo. And that's what the holiday spirit is all about.

Audi F103 Hatchback Prototype, 1969, by Bertone. The F103 series had re-established Audi in the car market of the 1960s. This was Bertone's proposal to update the range with a hatchback. However VW's takeover of Audi NSU Auto Union AG meant that the new generation of Audis for the 1970s were being designed by Giorgetto Giugiaro and Bertone's design was passed over.

MY VWS PROJECT IS RUNNING
“The VALIANT WARRIOR SQUADRON is a serialized collection of short stories following an American soldier named Joseph Baker, in an alternate earth, year 2040. After developing psychic powers from a bio-terrorist weapons misfire, Joseph is inducted into VWS-1 special forces to fight a neo-nazi organization that has caused death and suffering for countless people, including Joseph himself. Not only fighting for right over wrong, and for personal revenge, Joseph fights to preserve a fleeting sense of normalcy in an increasingly tumultuous and unsure world. The Valiant Warrior Squadron explores the importance of putting aside personal differences to create a united front against fascism, while also taking inspiration from anime and video games such as the works of Hideo Kojima and Koichi Ohata. If you are looking for an adult-geared story about war and fascism with a diverse cast of heroes (including multiple large, bulky monster women!) The Valiant Warrior Squadron might be for you!
