"we bought this Victorian house and opened up the interior, adding lots of overhead lights and pewter walls-"

biting you killing you biting you killing you biting you killing you

#JUST BUY A NEW HOUSE #THAT IS NOT MAKING IT LIVABLE WHICH I WOULD UNDERSTAND. THAT IS RUINING IT.#IF NOT WANT OLD HOUSE. DO NOT BUY OLD HOUSE #and don't come at me with 'well some people can't afford restoration so!'#if you can't afford restoration you can't afford to completely redo the interior. IKEAfication costs money too #it's not the poor doing this. it's rich assholes. sometimes just developers even who don't intend to live there

Your centaurs differ pretty wildly from the base DnD centaurs, but what I am curious about is old people. DnD centaurs travel in migrations that last generations and just leave the old or infirm behind to keep on (at which point they become Chiron types); how do your centaurs handle the elderly?

I actually had no idea that DnD centaurs did that, kinda cool, kinda wild cultural practice?? While I have always encouraged folks to use my workarounds and patches for centaurs in their TTRPG games, I actually have very little idea of what ideas are already in any of the systems that do actually include centaurs! my advice on centaurs is usually much more niche daily life stuff than most game developers and story writers tend to delve into.

For my centaurs the elderly are treated much like any human elder, what do you do with them? You cherish them!! Particularly with my centaurs, who across all their cultures depend a lot on family and group dynamics to compensate for the challenges that come with having a horse body. So elders would be an important font of knowledge and cultural memory! Now MY centaurs in particular tend to be pre-history to medieval style cultures, with access to higher medicines pretty much limited to the Port city of the Merchant's culture so living to a super advanced age would be fairly rare, but that would just make those who DO get to that age generally more important and respected (at least according to Nana)

As mobility issues arise with advanced age, there's lots of options to keep Nana mobile and healthy, from supportive corsets and harnesses to support the back to senior comfort hoof trims and special shoes- but most end up opting for being (literally) carted around in small wagons by the grandkids. Or the more independent minded seniors may drive their own carts with pet ponies and donkeys (or even goats!)

Of course wheelchairs are also an excellent choice to help with mobility at any age!

And even in my semi-nomadic Rider culture, elders are simply packed up with the yurts and tents and travel in the carts that way. No reason to leave them behind when you have stuff to be carrying anyway in my opinion!

#centaurs #asked and answered #worldbuilding #elder care #in which as usual I yap too much #new doodles!#because i couldn't resist the temptation #to draw some gummy lil old centaurs #cherish your elders people!!#i think the reason i get so into worldbuilding for centaurs #is because so many other systems #just treat them as smart monsters #or just Chiron #but a herd of him #more fun to me to explore a person #with the power and size of a horse #and how they navigate that

I am blocking jikookers everyday now ever since AYS aired. I don't care if someone wants to answer all the trolls, akgaes, ex-jikookers. Whatever, do what you want. But keep it on your blog and don't clog the jikook tag with all the bullshit. And for what? For a snarky remark as a reply? As if that actually puts the anons in place? They achieved their purpose, you gave a platform to trolls. Well done.

#m thoughts #jikook #jikookers #seriously some of you care more about the attention your blog gets than the ship/duo you want to post about #have none of you lived through the internet era in which we all learned not to feed the trolls?#how old are you? 12?#it's just miserable scrolling through it now #and I do like to do it because sometimes there's new accounts from people who write well and I can follow up #I don't expect/want an echo chamber #but what is happening right now it's just stupid

Initial drawings of that old man… I literally, I haven’t finished reading the book of bill yet!!! I had to stop and take a break for a week to feverishly draw fanart of myself petting fords floofy hair and giving him attention and shit…!!!! The urge was too great….!! I’ve literally. I had a crush on this guy the instant he was first REVEALED in the show, but I did not have the artistic prowess to draw good looking old men back then… but I do now… thank god… thank fucking god

#gravity falls #ford pines #stanford pines #self ship #self insert #si x canon #it me #doodles #I got a haircut! so my hair looks different now.. as haircuts tend to do lol #anyway… yeah… I LOVE HIM… GRAHHFJH #the confirmation that he rlly is just sad and lonely and insecure and craving attention and validation #OHH FORD BBY.. WE R THE SAME #like… ghghg i loved him already just w his prickly nerdy outer shell but knowing more about the vulnerable center is GREAT. ITS AWESOME #also hes a smart nerdy guy who can do science and expirements and shit which is ONE OF MY FAVORITE THINGS FOR A CHARACTER TO DO #u kno im all about scientists….#I couldn’t draw ship art back then 1 cuz I didn’t kno how to draw old men and 2 cuz I was like 13 lol… which would have been wierd #but I’m an ADULT NOW. GET OVER HERE FORD #also it didn’t even rlly cross my mind TO draw that stuff cuz even tho I did love ford #self ship and x reader sorta stuff was not NEARLY as popular back then.. like I specifically remember it like. booming in popularity #at some point. but being pretty rare before that. anyway. thank u passage of time and trends and new gravity falls book for introducing #me back to fictional man I love. so I can now draw myself smooching him and shit #hell yeah.#13 is probably not actually correct I do not remember exactly which year fords reveal was in…#but I was probably older then 13.. but still #the point remains lol.#also omg. the bit in the book w the goth moth. ‘ur probably into this sorta thing right?’#I AM INTO THAT SORTA THING FORD. thank u book of bill for being written specifically @ me. the immersion it’s great.#like ur so right ford I AM edgy and goth how’d u guess that tee hee. eyelash flutter #aLSO PLS IGNORE MY FINGER BEING IN FRAME IN THE LAST PIC. I was drawing in a tiny bound sketchbook #so I had to hold the paper down to keep it flat. and. I didn’t feel like censoring my fucking. pinkie finger out of the image

Note for someone to turn into a story: one way to give the middle generation/s on a generation ship a purpose in life, aside from "raise the children whose children will eventually land on the colony world," could be as creators of art and story. Music too.

Just imagine: you have your whole life ahead of you with all the training and materials of this vast spaceship at your disposal, and all of society plans to revere the creative masterpieces you and your peers come up with.

No pressure.

But yes possibility.

#somebody write about that #I haven't heard this story before #generation ships #they always feel like such a depressing concept #because nobody ever plans anything for the middle generations to DO #but what if they were the Shakespeares #the Rennaissance artists #the ones able to create a vast body of work over their lifespans #the best of which would become required reading in schools #for centuries to come #it wouldn't be hard to arrange #a few regular contests for quality #a good system for recording and preserving #and the leadership makes the best readily available to society #bingo bango you've got some new classics #to go along with the old ones from humanity's original home world #wouldn't that be something #writing prompts #in spaaace

im so glad that we never get a clear picture of sophie’s background in leverage & i hope we never do. however i also really like making up various, often conflicting backstories for her in my head. perhaps they’re all backstories for an alias of hers, ones she laid to rest back in season two.

#leverageposting #leverage #sophie devereaux #particularly that one of or both her parents had to move around a lot for work & so she would change herself to fit in at every new school #or new town etc etc. and that whatever original identity she had was dropped due to some kind of really awful event and her bio family think #she’s dead. eg she got into some kind of extreme legal trouble for the first time & she faked her death & everyone she knew as a kid thinks #she’s dead too. like. astrid wasn’t the first person she left to miss/mourn her.#but also that she was a teen runaway at like age ~16 and pretended to be an adult (like. 18/19) cause theres not much you can do by yourself #as a minor like booking flights or renting an apartment. and so began her first proper alias. and she was a pickpocket until she could fund #her life fully through grifting & cons.#or alternatively her parents died when she was a teen & she was old enough to become an emancipated minor (everyone in lev is an orphan)#and she kind of just fell into crime from there bc she had no one #or perhaps she got married at 17 and realised how fucked it all was and stashed money until she could run away & leave it all behind. that’s #bc of a single vague sentence on john rogers’ blog saying she was married at 17 and in context it was quite possibly a joke or random #hypothetical example but i was like what if???? What If???????#i also like the hc that she’s trans which i’ve seen a few times #in some versions in my mind her parents were okay and in some versions they were awful and in some versions it was so complicated.#i think tara has heard one story and parker or hardison have heard another and nate has never heard any story. he’s never asked.#she is here now and that’s all that needs knowing. and sophie devereaux is her real name in any way it matters.#eliot has also never asked and she asked if he was curious once and he just asked if she was curious about What He Did and that was answer #enough for the both of them. just a mutual agreement not to ask and it actually solidified their bond.#i think she struggled for a long time about whether to tell her new family The Real Story but in much the same way we never hear her birth #name bc it’s not Her anymore… she never gives The Real Story. bc it no longer defines who she is. she’s so much more than whatever happened.#lvg

i needed to express a sentiment in the creative stylings of @dunmeshiminimumwage

#eliot posts #dunme #delicious in dungeon #dungeon meshi #sorry to put toshiro in the roll of shitty job interviewer lmao #but he was the best fit for ''guy that wants me to read their mind''#laios being my internal monologue here #i was on my THIRD interview of the day i was Dying #tho since the prev two interviews i had were for similar positions and told me their salaries outright at least i could use that number #(though tbh my work persona is more of a kabru. my customer service voice is unparalleled)#(at my first job even my coworkers thought i was sooo cheerful til i got too comfy and casually made a joke abt wanting to asphyxiate on a #plastic shopping bag like a sea turtle. in front of my sweet elderly coworker. oops!)#(also this job was during quarantine and after weeks of working together i took my mask off in front of one coworker for the first time #and she called like half the department over from their registers to look at how pretty i was??? prettyboy powers unmatched ig)#(also my first interview today went SO well i charmed that interviewer so good despite my lack of qualifications)#(she even complimented my social skills and said i seemed like the type who could get along well and make good conversation with anyone!)#(which is important bc i was interviewing for an elder care position. also old people especially tend to think i am a Delightful Young Lad)#(unless i accidentally make a morbid joke around them ig lmaooo. or. well. some of them like those too. but not that one coworker lol)#(if only that skill transferred over to actually making friends irl. my autistic ass has so few close irl connections)#(i hope my exceedingly short list of character references does not prevent me from getting hired)#AND ALSO my first job asked the same wage question and i said twelve dollars #and they were like all our new employees start at 7.75 #the union insists that we pay all new employees a whopping 50 cents above min wage. (we'd pay less if we could)#like dawg why did you ask that then??? if my answer did not matter at all???

WIP panels

#my beloved 2013 laptop died last winter #my new one works fine but almost all my brushes/drawing programs are too old to carry over #which was so frustrating i really haven't drawn in a year!#i'm getting over it the way i got used to my tablet in the first place - drawing a comic #it will be some time till it's actually done but these panels turned out nice #and i feel like i'm finally reaching the same level of competence with the new stuff that I had with the old #my art

Hey friends.

Just so you know, the blanket fort's always there if you need it.

Doesn't matter how long it's been. Doesn't matter if you still have hope or if you've given up. Doesn't matter if you're sad or angry or scared or a just a bit lonely. Doesn't matter if you feel a bit silly for however you're feeling.

There's always going to be someone there to welcome you. That's the beauty of fandom.

I love you.

Door's the blue cushion.

#emynn.op #ofmd #I was feeling sad earlier going through my archive bc the nostalgia was getting to me hard #but I do still have hope! so I was pushing it aside #but then I saw some people getting sad over DJenks' tweet #(which I personally didn't. but we all react to things differently!!)#just giving extra squeezes tonight to anyone who needs it #not going anywhere #💕💕💕💕#(also I tried to rb my old blanket fort post but tumblr's search function is a dick so new one it is)#(I'll find the old one in a couple of months I'm sure)

main characters of a comic I'm hoping to dedicate a lot of my time to this year

#currently still untitled. i've been wanting to make a comic for so many years but been kinda too fucked in the head to #actually bind myself to a long project. we'll see how this one goes. not putting any pressure on myself.#it's a old-ish concept which sparked first from that old skephalo au i had. but is nowadays more about actually learning to live #i may hav posted angel here before.. but yeah more to come some day. next up is opening my etsy store again :'''D #but yeeahhhh happy new year everyone! <3 #angel demon dichotomy as always babeyhhh
