#and everything I saved I wear

[vitiateoriginator]

Very proud of myself, I went through all my clothes and threw out anything I no longer liked or wear. 2 boxes are now empty (yes I'm still partially living out of boxes, since I'm gonna move again soon). It amounted to 3 trashbags worth of stuff

fionna's world being represented by a dandelion makes so much sense ... they're weeds. yet people make wishes through them, changing their whole meaning from something meant to be destroyed to something hopeful.

dandelions are also resilient and it makes sense that something associated with them would. you know. perservere despite the destruction caused by the scarab.

but ultimately i think what REALLY made me tear up over this is that dandelions are really boring plants. when you're a kid you blow on them and make your wish but they're not eyecatching or anything but still, fionna's final wish was for her old world to still exist as it was when she left it (> plain and simple. boring even).

like the moment she realized she would lose her friends, and that her friends might forget each other if the world got its magic back, she immediately decided she didn't want it and I think that ties back to the dandelion metaphor so well... like, do you really need magic to be real to find it everywhere? or can you turn something boring into something magical?

tape, cardboard, and newspaper!!!

to go a bit more into detail on this - from what I understand, this was on display* in a house for a number of years. This particular piece comes from the home of the harbormaster (a lovely man), and was exposed to light and about 50+ years of cigarette smoke. The boat in the photo is an early ferry in my area, and the cardboard it is mounted on seems to be some sort of church(??) yard sign(???)

we are still deciding the best course of action for this piece, but in all honestly, as a smallish museum/historical society with a laundry list of pieces with urgent conservation needs, we don't have the manpower to do anything other than keep it in a dark and temperature controlled space.

There are a lot of things that make me sad when I see pieces like this, because its so easy to see how important it was to its former owner, and it hurts me that we can't pour all of our time and resources into every piece that needs help. There are pieces even in this intake (which I cannot show because they contain identifying information about my location) that will be prioritized as they demand more immediate conservation efforts. Time can be a cruel opponent - and all we can do is our best.

anywho!!! all this is to say Support your local historical society!!! they are trying their darndest to preserve your local history and can't do so without community support! (and support does not always mean money!!! genuinely just interacting with your local historical societies can mean so much)

*I am unsure the specifics of where/how long it was on display for

In season 3 episode 2 of Camp Cretaceous, do you have any idea why Ben didn’t have a swimsuit while the rest of the campers did? It always cracks me up that he’s just in his regular every day clothes.

Okay, this is just based on my sideways knowledge of this as a storyboard artist and not a designer/production person, but it was probably to save money, especially since Ben had already JUST gotten a completely new design in season 2 (and at that point the other characters had had relatively smaller changes with just their hair).

I think I've said it somewhere before, but the reason they don't get that many outfit changes is because most of the Nublar 5's design slots (or the budget for the number of new designs each season) got allotted to having different levels of dirt/grime/damage to their existing outfits and hair. And this also limited how often they could change clothes because their new outfits wouldn't have the same levels of destruction without spending more time and money to create them. I think whenever the characters got wet that even counted as an additional design slot?

Anyway, giving each of the characters an entire new design that would only be used once (their swimsuit looks) for just one episode was probably already expensive. I'm still kind of amazed we did it for any of them just for a single episode HAHA.

dagda voicing the absurdity of how a hat can distinguish between good and bad and then coco specifically ripping the brim of coustas' hat to show how easily you can switch between a brimhat and a pointy hat... there are layers to this!

having emotions about the headcanon that ingellvar left all their gold jewelry (I think emmrich calls it a watcher's 'grave dowry' which they accumulate and wear through their lifetime in preparation for their eventual burial which like. god I love these goth freaks) behind when they left the grand necropolis because as far as they're concerned they're being sent into exile and it doesn't seem right to bring it with them........

As a show of good faith toward the remaining Decepticons at the beginning of a new, united Cybertron, newly appointed Senators Bumblebee and Soundwave allowed Shatter and Dropkick to enlist into Autobot City's Defense Team.

These two turned out to be... not the best choices.

The city may have fallen to Insurgent Decepticon occupation had it not been for young recruits Hot Rod and Arcee's accidental interception of Shatter's communication with the fugitive Starscream.

To replace the errant Defense Team members, Springer and Blurr were reassigned from Iacon to Autobot City in their stead.

Listen, I know Xiaobao has negative braincells, but if he doesn't use that poison stuff on Huaien and immediately ask, "tell me the truth, do you love me or was everything you told me a lie?" Or something similar...

I will be of the opinion that there is no hope for his survival in the human race.
