Happy ten years to transcendence au and almost as long to Brian the organ duck! How time flies...
I haven't drawn anything for this au in ages but I did remake the 8tracks playlists on Spotify if anyone uses that. Before Brian shows up, imagine Dipper and Mabel are discussing songs to add to the answering machine playlist (which. that's. Did I mean hold music all this time? lol)
#transcendence au#carliedraws#carliedrawstau#traditional#sketchbook#i stopped being a mod like nooot even a year in because. life. but i have always held affection for the au since#might take a spin through the blog to see what happened on there since i left#yall are so creative#maybe ill do an actual entry for the raffle contest thingy? or is that weird cause i used to mod LOL#but for now this because i was feeling nostalgic#audio#did i have a playlist tag#organ duck#body horror w#the thing I can't believe about this character#is that the initial idea for him came from someone making fun of how i said oregon ducks in a stream#i should stream again someday#i dont do digital much these days because of eye problems but i can do it in limited stretches#(how ELSE is one meant to say oregon ducks. no one i know around here says ore-uh-gone)#(i live in non-OR part of the PNW tho and my dad is from OH so. who knows lol)

PNW Plant Magic Series
These posts were made many years ago based on my personal (UPG) correspondences and experiences with the plants. Some views have evolved since then!
I encourage you to sit with any plant you want to incorporate into your craft and truly connect with them instead of solely using a UPG correspondence list on tumblr! Consider these a starting point/inspiration! :)
Bleeding heart
Bracken Fern
Deer Fern
Lady Fern
Licorice Fern
Maidenhair Fern
Miner��s Lettuce
Nettle
Osoberry
Red Elderberry
Salal
Salmonberry
Sorrel
Sword Fern
Trillium
#pnw plant magic#PNW witch#local magic#upg#I now live somewhere that doesn’t have most of these plants#but I may start making some posts like this for the plants in my area!#this has been in my drafts for two years so I’m just going to post it as is#was thinking I’d incorporate plants in my new area but that hasn’t happened yet

every day I am shocked the Midwest accent is real
#I just didn't KNOW that many people who had noticeable midwest accents until I like. moved here.#though my grandmother was originally from minnesota before that side of the family moved to washington when she was small#and you could occasionally hear it in certain words#(one of many scandinavian-american families that went 'this weather sucks' and moved from the midwest to the west coast)#I have a pnw accent which is one of the lesser-known regional american accents#I don't know if it's still very strong but at one point it was noticeable enough that people kept commenting on it#in a 'what the fuck is that' kind of way because most people don't know the pnw accent exists#but I also confuse people because I lived in the South for so long#I don't have a southern accent but I do have some dialect quirks that have been picked up over the years#the people who have been most confused about my accent have been canadians from bc lol#the bc accent is very very close to a washington accent but not identical#then I said 'y'all' and they gave up and went 'where...are you from. what is that.'#(this is a true story)#I also now say parking deck which I *think* is a georgia thing? or that part of the south anyway#I never heard it before I moved to atlanta#your girl

what if i drove to the woods and just screamed instead of taking my chem exams this week? what then?
#who am i kidding the woods are right by the fuckin roads because i live in the PNW#turn off the main street and it's a parking lot to the local hiking trails#i've got one on monday and one on tuesday i think i might just lose it y'all#i didn't even get to the hw we were encouraged to do before the exam#so um. i am NOT slaying right now.#stem major shenanigans#personal

positivity cancelled i hate my life again
#i forgot how much of a DRAGGGG the middle of the semester is#and it’s so fucking hot still that i think it’s actually starting to affect my outlook on life like i need SEASONS are you kidding me#i moved here so i wouldn’t kill myself from seasonal depression in the pnw and now i just wanna kill myself in a different way like .#ok it's not nearly as bad lets be real but im still annoyed#also fall semester SUCKS bc there’s no mid semester break. only stupid thanksgiving#which is literally a week and a half before winter break anyways like what’s the POINT#and i’m just horrifically bored. yeah it’s the boredom again. always#maybe i should get in another lesbian situationship turned unbearable short lived relationship just to feel something#or maybe i should just be normallllll and make more friends and plan more things to look forward to but no.. that would be silly 😐

I had so much fun today (and yesterday). My cousin and her girlfriend came to visit and I was worried it would be awkward because I hadn't seen my cousin in 5 years and I had never met her girlfriend, but it was so fun. It was nice reconnecting with my cousin and her girlfriend is really nice.
#my cousin has lived in the midwest her whole life and so i rarely got to see her but she recently moved to the pnw#and is now only like 4 hours away so i'm hoping i'll get to see her more often now#she was like my favorite cousin growing up too#personal

#we're going to washington next month and it'll be my first time back in the pnw since 2019 and i have some feelings about that#also might have a chance to go back to the town where i used to live next spring. but that's still a little ways out#anyways everything pre-pandemic really does feel a lifetime ago now and it's strange

I would be curious to see what you found about Raven…hm how bout we swap notes?
just take what you find with a grain of salt. The best answers come from the people who know them, not summaries.
[REDACTED]
#[REDACTED] au poster#oh wait now that i google it i think i have read this before#i live in the PNW so i'm not surprised i've come across this before; i must've just forgotten the name#from what i recall (and wikipedia's help) it's about a raven who steals light for the rest of the world from these sky people(?)#the raven impregnated the sky chief's daughter through turning into a pine needle and getting swallowed (not quite sure that's how it works#but i guess this is a tall tale)#a baby was born that looked a lot like the raven. the raven then used the birth as a cover to steal the sun where he then threw it into the#sky for the people to have#does that sound about right?

Everything feels out of my control but also targeting me or making people upset and I can't do anything
#personal#i want to throw everything away. i want to walk down the side of the freeway till im at the coast#i want to walk into the water like in the awakening#i want to never talk to people ever again and i want to talk to them every second of the day#i want to learn to drive and how to be on my own and go to the pnw by myself and just sit next to one of the trees and breathe#i want to reach out but i also want to recede into myself#i want to go to therapy on thursday and i also want to cancel because my mom doesnt want to drive me#i want to live in [redacted town] but i also dont because everything i used to love is there and im afraid its empty now

#chelseaspice on apple music btw#currently living vicariously thru this song 💔#ill probably never have a summer like this#thinking abt when the summer after i turned 18 i was so excited bc i had a lil money in my pocket#and i was younger and still had sparkle in my eyes#this was the time coconut girl and frankies bikinis first came up#i so badly wanted nothing than to be a sit on the beach girl#but i didnt live an hour from atlantic city like i did as a kid amymore#and the beaches at the pnw (noah fence) are a PITTANCE compared to the ones i grew up on 🤚🏾#and i had a shit excuse of a human being i was convincing myself that liked me as a best friend#i spent the summer working 10hr shifts at red robin getting sexually harassed 👍🏾#cant say i aint run it up tho#dont matter now bc i spent it all 😣#i took the last $200 made and put it in an account. thats the grown up thing to do right? save?#if i ever had it my way id be in my beach house wearing a sun dress w no undies making dj sets and#chasing my dog around. and in the night hit the boardwalk w my friends and party jersey shore style#….anyways will smith woooo! 😀😍#Spotify

Pine trees, huckleberries, apples, Mt. Rainier/"hey the mountain is out today", meth addicts everywhere, Leavenworth, rain (umbrellas are for tourists I WILL let myself get soaked as a matter of pride before I use one), coffee (not Starbucks, you want the small shops), artisanal cheese, microbreweries, Seahawks/Mariners/Kraken, snow, nerdy shit everywhere, international food (90% of this list is going to be food), weed, I-90, the Space Needle, Eastern Washington's abundance of neo-nazis that get ignored because of Western Washington's abundance of progressives, pronouncing dragon as "drey-gin"...
Reblog for a bigger sample size.
