trying to decompress but everything is going wrong :(
#broke a glass in the bath (as it was running)#all out of my good candles#it’s so late already but i won’t have time in the morning#i wanted to go to bed like an hour ago#having things to do & me don’t mix#also need to hem a dress before 11 tomorrow morning 🙃

I made a few new wax seal stamps out of clay (like the ones I did for my worldbuilding stuff forever ago), this time just of random symbols that I thought might look good done in the style of painting over the raised part of the wax or etc. :0c Some of them aren't carved deep enough to really show up that well, but overall they worked okay for being clay lol
#wax seal#crafts#wax stamp#stationery#Window one is kind of stinky.. I was imagining like a swirly night sky sort of looking thing so it would be a surreal contrast of a night#sky with a window in the middle that shows a daytime sky - but the silver and purple wax kind of mixed too much together#with the black and it just looks very plain black and not all that starry or anything hjbhj.. Of course the eye is probably my favorite#since all I ever do is draw eyes and still like eye imagery for some reason. The four leaf clover is very lumpy and skrunkty but also it wa#the smallest in size out of all of them so was easier to do multiple stamps of just to try it out.#The heart with eyes wax is actually more swirly in person. I wanted it to be a mix of light pink and red and white. and the wax#did kind of all blend together but in person you can definitely see MORE of the intentional swirlyness. in this it just looks plain pink.#I was going to do one eye in the heart but it looked weird. but now two seems too plain. i could have done 3?? in a pattern.. hmm#alas. I wish I could make actual metal ones. With the clay i have to paint them in a thin layer of olive oil before stamping because#otherwise the wax just kind of gets stuck in the grooves of the clay and then you can't pull it up. Very wacky ''unprofessional'' looking#set up where I'm hot gluing circles of sculpey clay to short stumps of a wooden dowel that I sawed apart with a serrated bread knife#and then using an old paintbrush to put olive oil on them whilst holding a spoon over a yankee candle flame hjbjh#ANYWAY.. I think if I were middle class/rich/etc. this would be one of the main things in my crafting room is like.. SO many colors#of wax. and all different custom made stamps designed by me. which could be much more elaborate in actual metal.. muahaha.... >:)c#RHGghhh... I actually don't want to talk much about it since (this is probably just my Obsessed With My Own World Artist Delusions) I#think I have a really cool idea for a game that could genuinely be successful if i ever get to make it and I don't want to give#everything away and spoil the whole plot/concept in hopes that one day I can actually do it - BUT - a game that I'd like to make after the#visual novel I'm making now has partially to do with the main character working as a sort of writer/scribe/artist assistant in an elven#city (set in my world/with my worldbuilding species and versions of elves and etc) and I was thinking of maybe incorporating#somehow being able to collect little writing type items like these like.. you can get different wax seal patterns or pens or etc. when I do#stuff like this in Real Life it always makes me think of that like.. ouh... this is good research.. what it shall be like to be a littol#elf collecting wax seals and such.. indeed... GRR i need to be finished with my current game NOWWW... i MUST work on other#thingss... aughh... ANYWAY.. yay. accomplishment to do One Single Thing other than Sit In The Summer Heat And Rot#though also hilarious as this was the first cool-ish day that was below 80F in a while hgvh#waking up like 'wow.. i actually feel okay today?? like I could do things?? how mysterious.. I wonder why..?? :0'' Its The Weather You Fool#Tis Always The Weather

here’s the thing… I’ll never settle on that this is it, that it’s the end of it all bc there’s too many things that don’t make sense but also if anyone in this world deserves karmic justice it’s Daniel and I simply refuse that this is the end after everything he’s dealt with in the last four years.
I need to believe good things happen to good people or I’ll go absolutely crazy so I’m gonna stay in the place of hope and possible delusion that this isn’t the end, simply because it can’t be.
#daniel ricciardo#dr#dr3#f1#formula 1#formula one#him going quietly without a fight doesn’t sit right one bit him not getting a proper send off or actually getting to leave on his own terms#it’s not the end#this might be the summer break of it all also and that my mind will go another round once Cota actually comes around#but I don’t believe it and I won’t ever I think#if there’s anything people love it’s a good comeback story and nothing would be greater than his right now redbull has made sure of that in#their achievement of out doing mclaren in his treatment#so I am holding on to my little candle gently shielding it from every hint of wind bc I need this I just need to believe good things are#coming. they’re coming we just don’t know it yet#joey rambles

Oops, haven’t shared any other nights lol but here is my chanukiah (Hillel) next to my roommates (shammai)
#chanukkahproject#chanukah#chanukkah#hanukkah#hanukah#chanukahproject#my roommate did some study and she was like why do we follow Hillel and not shammai here when he makes so many good points abt the symbolism#of the holiday and I was like well the reason why is obvious. it’s depressing as hell to start out with all of the candles and have less#and less each night#so as a bit of a joke she does hers following shammai

“...Wrong? Why would anything go wrong?”
Without further ado, a stimboard for @ask-the-biggering-onceler!
x|x|x x|x|x x|x|x
#TADAAAA :D#ohh there's SO much going on here#the first one is interesting bc i tried to avoid gifs of the outside#but this one strikes me as a moment from before the blog started#a brief moment of introspection and dwelling on the past as he looks out at the dwindling remains of the forest#though to him i’m sure any second thought about what could’ve been is a second wasted and he snaps himself out of it shortly after#THE BEAR THE TEDDY BEAR#it's a foreboding reference to the barbaloots it's a representation of the past it's everything to me :D#the spotlight for being the center of attention and scrutiny alike; loud and flashy juxtaposed with the softer candles on the other side#the gears are for the factory but note how clean it looks#showing his desperate attempts to keep his reputation intact and insist that absolutely nobody has died within the walls of this place#the velvety red fabric resembles both theater curtains (performance and the blog) and the curtains in his office#and they’re positioned opposite to the one glimpse we see of the outside world calling back to that one scene in the 1972 version#a camera for both his surveillance over thneedville and the press plus a reference to that old photo of him before his business days#the entire middle column is a brief glimpse into all the good intent that got soured along the way#while the right column represents his success and splendor#alternatively the bear and the camera could reference that one scene in hbcib with pipsqueak!#and that last one is for the extravagance of the ball!#you could say it being next to the camera means he’ll be keeping a close eye on partygoers >:3#i actually steered clear of stuff like sewing and other such manual work to show how he stands at the very top#arghh i could go on about every little part of the layout and how the different themes connect and oppose each other it's so fun!!!!! :D#anyways i hope ya like it ouo!!!#biggerler#ask the biggering onceler#stimboard#my nonsense

judas kiss
#i'm kidding (maybe) but valentino wouldn't be (perhaps)#it is a kiss btw sete makes the appropriate sound effect and everything. very sweet very wholesome very gracious loser tm#//#brr brr#he makes for such a good foil because he's also so... idk image conscious but rather than use it he tends to get in his own way#complete contrast in their later narrativisation because they both identify a different turning point in their rivalry#(and for MY money they're BOTH overshooting by a few races)#and both make it about unsportsmanlike conduct from the other party. thing is they couldn't have reacted more differently#vale has a tendency with some rivals to play down how central they were to his career and it's not a coincidence (imo) that the biggest -#- victims are the two he had the best relationship with. marc isn't the strongest rival he ever faced. sete is dismissed completely#(which biaggi is to some extent too in that he calls his later rivals stronger but at least he allows biaggi his place in vale's story)#and like... buddy. prime!vale had 14 points in hand over sete with 3 rounds to go let's not pretend it was THAT comfortable my man#but that's what he does! and then sete by contrast makes it about moral injury which is a more flattering story than -#- 'yea he drew some pentagons and lit some candles and chanted a bit in latin and after that my bike would run out of fuel on the last lap'#obviously the relative amount they've discussed it post end of rivalry is completely lopsided but that's true of all but one vale rivalry#all that being said obviously sete did make it way too easy for valentino lmao. the hydrogen bomb vs coughing baby of psychological warfare#curse tag

what type of villain are you?
your honor, i do love a good uquiz diagnosing the diseases and problems of my fictional characters and also i might be slightly procrastinating a final paper. saw this one from @sasslett and simply could not resist :3 quiz link! for those who'd like.
swtor edition first!
tyr deckard - then let me be evil
You never wanted to hurt anyone, but the world never gave you a choice. You did the best you could with what you had, but every innocent mistake you made was held against you when it counted, every crossroads led you down the wrong path no matter which way you went. No matter what you did, the odds were stacked against you. It wasn't fair, and you are sick and tired of being told what a monster you are for things out of your control. Well, fine. They want a monster? YOU'LL GIVE THEM A MONSTER!
alucren ellery - the betrayer
You like to do things up close and personal. As personal as you can get. You are an excellent actor, and you do adore putting on a smile knowing your worst enemy, the one you hate the most, doesn't suspect a thing when they tell you their deepest secrets. Your only motivation is revenge, and revenge you shall get. Perhaps you loved them once, long ago, but any fondness for your target you once felt has long since warped and twisted into perverse obsession, laced with malice and venom and seething hatred. Good or evil does not matter to you. All that matters is they get what they deserve.
leo ashold - the coward
You didn't have another choice, honest! Have these people SEEN what the heroes are up against? It'd end you in an instant, whether that be a lovecraftian abomination with a hold on your soul, a rampaging monster that's destroying more than a hurricane and an earthquake could in one fell swoop, a shadow organization that has tabs on everyone you love and will end them in an instant, or just a particularly grumpy boss that might yell at you if you don't fall in with his excessively tyrannical methods, you can't go risking your neck for the poor saps that think they can stop it. No way, you're staying on the bad guy side, where it's SAFE.
rhyst delavast - for the greater good
Perhaps you do not believe what you are doing can truly be classified as evil. Perhaps some people will be hurt from the immediate consequences of your actions, but what the masses fail to see is the immense good that will come of your plans. Maybe you act in the name of science, or for your people who have fallen on great tragedy. Maybe you see cracks in a failing system and want to uproot it through chaotic, destructive means to avoid greater tragedy down the line. Maybe you're just in with a bad crowd, but you can't leave them, no matter how unsavory their intentions, because they're your only ticket to your ultimate goals. No matter what, your goals are noble, and you take no joy in wreaking havoc or hurting those in your way, but the evils you partake in are necessary. If you need to play the bad guy to ensure a better future, then you are willing to play that part.
savosta - no moral compass
You are cold, analytical, and you strive to be as objective as a person of flesh and blood can be. Either don't understand the concepts of good and evil, or you understand it perfectly and think it's a load of bull. Some may call you selfish, some may call you unfeeling, but you're just doing what you believe will yield the best results, plain and simple. Why bother with petty ideals of right or wrong when you can do what will actively help those you give a fuck about? Your goals may be selfish or noble or anything in between, but you will not let anyone make you feel like garbage for going after them. You couldn't care less about what people brand you as. You just care about getting shit done by any means necessary.
#this quiz has some interesting thoughts lol#retested the agents just to be sure and bc alucren's vibes are frankly all over the place depending on the day#a diverse portfolio of blorbos!#tyr i love you. mr so good at presenting calm cool and collected but yea. yea it has a fair point#he'd burn it all down with enough goading. he could be convinced. he hides his self-sacrifice a little too damn well sometimes but#baby you're my darling angel roman candle etc etc#dot talk#ch: tyr#ch: alucren#ch: leo ashold#ch: rhyst#ch: savosta#this uquiz coming right for leo's perceptions of himself i see#see initially alucren got savosta's results so i had to retest bc i was like no. no alucren's out for blood#knocking gently on him. sir remember. remember you chose overcome your limits so you could be a weapon against your enemies in ch2#anyway tyr could still kick his ass in close quarters that's the funny part alucren is Not a close range combatant#but he is an actor! so. imperial boys make do i mean what#dot exit stage left before the tomatoes show up#anyway this was also a really fun excuse to go back into my screenshots folders and find some goodies

The replacement for Apollo's candle had been delayed for a while, but had been slated to be shipped out last Monday, so I'd promised Apollo and Hermes that I would light it in thanks for a recently completed divination session after it arrived. Turns out that it didn't ship until this past Friday and was slated to be delivered on Wednesday, which I mentioned while doing the prayers to close out yesterday's divination session to acknowledge that I remembered my promise.
It arrived two days early! I burned it as soon as I could after I got home, and now I can light Apollo's candle during divination sessions instead of Hermes' (which burnt his down quite a bit) or a tealight. Hail Hermes for the swift delivery!
#i gave an offering in thanks after i got home from the doctor today#it also included a candle for Athena that smells like peach whiskey & tobacco and it's! so good!#*it being the package#(the person i bought them from offered to include a free item b/c my order was delayed for ~a month#which to be clear i wasnt worried or upset about - they're local and i know they've been going to a lot of markets recently & there have#also been Things Going On in their life - but it is nice to finally have a candle for athena)#(as long as they still have them in stock i'll be buying a refill when its out anyway. hermes' candle and all of apollo's candles so far#have been from the same person their stuff is 🤌 & they dont use essential oils so i dont have to worry about the cats)#helpol#hermes#apollo#theoi#coriander says

not to be dramatic but getting myself a wax warmer was one of the best things I've done for myself in terms of 'little things to make myself happy' I am terrified of open flame in the house due to past life events but really love scent as something that can soothe and calm and idk I just love that I can fill my house with scents I like and that are soothing but there's no fire and I am focusing on more like this for 2024. Welcoming little simple things into my life that I may have said 'no, that's frivolous' to before.
#plug in air fresheners often caused migraines like. a lot. A LOT. and just. weren't good. scents very limited.#spray air fresheners same thing but with the added worry of the shit landing in the cats' water & food dishes#I got a wax warmer for my room and loved it. got a christmas one for the living room. my mom got me one for the living room year round#hell my brother even got himself one for his room#they are so soothing and not overpowering and there's such a range of scents#I smelled like. all the ones at the store and I was surprised by how few were like oh god no migraine town (for me anyway)#considering how many scents there are. with the plug ins it's usually the opposite like 80% send me to migraine town#idk I am just. so happy rn. chilling out in my living room. that smells. just pleasant! not overbearing. no flame! no weird shit in the air#just pleasant. and soooo much cheaper than candles too omg#fully leaning into coloring again#idc how ridiculous it is everyone made fun of me in high school for still coloring now there's 11 billion ~adult~ coloring books out there#fuck yeah little things!#erin explains it all
