thinking about Piper's claiming scene in TLH but instead of her getting the stupid dress (that isn't even Greek-style it's just stupid) she gets a tear dress. cause that'd be fun.

cheneige moment aka me trying to learn how 2 draw rsa students

Oh, wait, wait, ok, I can tell tumblr my news now.

I was accepted into the JET Program and will be moving to Japan for one year starting in late summer to teach English. : )

I don't know how many other applicants have ever had either of my specific application 'angles'. I think they were both pretty weird, but also very, very me, and I'm pleasantly surprised that they seemed to have worked, going off both by the acceptance and the very positive and warm reactions I got during the interview I had. These were:

Science/scicomm/museum background + implying mutual interest in and love of like insects and sea life could be an avenue of intercultural connection and exchange

India and Japan have always struck me as weirdly similar in ways nobody seems to discuss, especially in both being simultaneously hurtling into modernity and deeply traditional/conservative in many ways and places

So. Is this a silly idea considering most people in this program are fresh college grads, and people my age are expected to maybe be getting more settled rather than hopping continents? Is this a scary idea, considering I'll have to uproot all my shit and go exist in a foreign country whose language I really don't know beyond miniscule smatterings? I mean, hmm, yes on both counts, but I'm very excited. On count one, I'd only get older in the future and demonstrably *don't* already have a settled life and career here to disrupt (lol), and on count two...guys, I'm so so tired of letting fear and inertia make my life decisions.

Time to pack up and store most of my shit and end my lease and. Yeah. Also I haven't actually been to India in five years and will probably try to visit my relatives there in the coming months since idk if i'd had an opportunity for a prolonged visit in the future during the one year (at least) in jp. I'll also be probably selling, trading, or giving away a lot more of my hobby shit (that was sort of an ongoing project already but since I'll be unable to use most of it for a year plus it's another reason to do so), so uh, if you've ever wished I would sell any of my dolls now might be time to commit BJD Hobby Taboo and ask me lol. And, obviously, I'll be studying more Japanese, because mine is incredibly へたくそ at the moment. So much to do. But I'm really excited. And thank you to all of y'all that have been encouraging to me about anything related to this matter <3

the more x-men I read and watch the more fond I get of scott. even when he's bad he's still kind of good in some way shape or form. this is also proportional with my growing dislike of wolverine

Every Film I Watch In 2023:

143. Night/Curse Of The Demon (1957)

[hella1975]

I told my parents that I want to get a nose piercing today and my dad deadass said “if you show up with that in your head I’ll put a super magnet up to your face and suck it out. Don’t try me.” I said “but I’m 18.” And he just said “super magnets still work on 18 year olds you ain’t immune.” 😔

i facetimed my mum with my fake septum in and she went 'i just dont know why you'd want to make your nose look BIGGER' so id say we're winning all round anon

Star Trek is...

The very first draft of TOS was written in 1964 and can be found here on the memory alpha wiki. Shown below is the original description for what James T. Kirk would become... and something sounds oddly familiar...

As an added bonus, here is the description of the second in command, at the time named "Number One."

The mysterious female executive officer, she was described as a slim, dark "in a Nile Valley way" and of uncertain age. She was expressionless, highly intelligent, and always cool under pressure. When Captain April left the ship, she would serve as "Acting Commander." The role was written by Roddenberry for his mistress, Majel Barrett from the very start. She appeared in the first pilot, but her mannerisms were assumed by Spock in the second pilot...

And another acquisition!

This is the Wendi face mold, a very common type that I have several of already, but I was looking for one that had green/hazel eyes.

The freckles are a nice feature since this one is going to be a redhead. Seems to be in good condition over all, no structural problems, just in need of a good cleaning and removal of marks and a wig change.

I really should get back to actually making progress with this project. It would be useful to get all the extraneous ones restored and sold, and the officially designated ones ready for the costuming stage, which will be a whole nother adventure.

I have the same issue!! I'm always cold but the second i get slightly too warm I get jettisoned into heat death. I don't have a neutral temperature. My friends joke around that I'm a lizard. Sorry you have to deal with weird body temperature bullshit too :(

i feel like the most annoying part is that my wardrobe is soooo limited now like i have collected so many cool clothes over the years but the temp issues mean i can pretty much only wear combinations that work in high and low temps... like 98% of my wardrobe is out of the question 90% of the time

Finally did that third Signpost Uncommon cycle

[bryoria]

just got back from a weekend camping trip with my dnd group, some of whom do a Lot more outdoorsy stuff than I and it was delightful to discover that despite that, I am perfectly competent and not to brag but much better at preparing and executing.*

my favorite part was when my very drunk (last night) friend/dm told me (this morning) that he didn’t realize that I put Marty Robbins on in the tent to calm him down last night and he thought I was just singing to him**
