📣 if you HAD to cut one song, what would it be?

oh how it feels waking up to a full inbox.. /pos

if I had to cut 1 song from hamilton.. Yikes thats gonna be hard to answer,..,,.

ok so it'd probably be Schuyler Defeated, as much as I love the transition into cabinet battle #2. It just kinda feels like dead weight onto the time span of the musical,, unlike the original version that kinda told a bunch of story and added stuff (The fact that Burr's wife had taken Ill, stuff about Theodosia Jr. and Philip, etc)

2: Okay this is gonna be even harder lol

Probably "I swear that I'll be around for you" from dear Theodosia, Charles Lee's parts in 10 duel commandments, "Raise a glass to the four of us" and "Rise up, I'm running out of time, I'm running and my time's up, wise up, eyes up"

oh and uh "Why do you write like you're running out of time?"

3: funniest moment in hamilton has gotta be Thayne just going crazy in my shot, climbing everything and bouncing around on tables and stuff, Also the choreography to the Reynolds Pamphlet after you actually watch what it is

4: If I could add one cut song back to the show it'd be ten things one thing, hands down. That followed my Schuyler Defeated is probably one of my favourite cut songs, though I would heavily miss the monologue 💔

5: What got me in to hamilton? Hm,, I do believe it was because my mom was playing it in the living room and I didn't rlly focus on it the first watch, but then I played it again because I was curious and fell absolutely in love

6: My no1 hamilton song.. oh gosh 😭😭

these are a lot harder to answer than anticipated

okay so, it's gonna be one of these: Washington on your side, Dear Theodosia, Wait for it, TSOT, hurricane, Stay alive + Ten duel commandments, Election of 1800 or the Reynolds Pamphlet

so both Washington on your side and the election of 1800 are incredible, but they're so similar that I wouldn't choose them. plus, the lyrics aren't what im really looking for as a favourite song

Reynolds pamphlet is good too but it's off the list because the lyrics aren't what if choose for a #1 song

Wait for it is sadly off as much as I hate to, but it is 𝘰𝘯𝘦 of my favourites!

stay alive and the ten duel commandments are good, and they have Charles in them and all, but I can't choose either of them over dear Theodosia or TSOT 💔

Dear Theodosia is a super sentimental (? is that the word for it?) song to me, buuut I'm gonna knock this one off the list for now

and for the last two I literally can't choose between them so TSOT and Hurricane are my no1 song from hamilton, we can pretend I chose just 1 song 😭😭🙏

whoof thank you leedhd for being awesome and asking me these because I've been itching for Tumblr activity and this is epic, W moot moment 🙏

Polk County Florida Sheriff - "You kill a policeman it means no arrest...no Miranda rights...no negotiations...nothing but as many bullets as we can shoot into you...PERIOD."

POLK COUNTY FLORIDA SHERIFF, GRADY JUDD

man in Polk County , Florida , who got pulled over in a routine traffic stop, ended up "executing" the deputy who stopped him. The deputy was shot eight times, including once behind his right ear at close range. Another deputy was wounded and a police dog killed. A state-wide manhunt ensued.

The murderer was found hiding in a wooded area. As soon as he took a shot at the SWAT team, officers opened fire on him. They hit the guy 68 times.

Naturally, the liberal media went nuts and asked why they had to shoot the poor, undocumented immigrant 68 times.

Sheriff Grady Judd told the Orlando Sentinel: "Because that's all the ammunition we had." Now, is that just about the all-time greatest answer or what❓

The Coroner also reported that the man died of natural causes. When asked by a reporter how that could be, since there were 68 bullet wounds in his body, he simply replied: (BEST QUOTE ever) . . .."When you are shot 68 times you are naturally gonna die."

@luzon-dove happy birthday, Quinn!! As a present, I decided to draw a piece fanart of your "blood in the walls of the yagami house" AU fic series, since I found it very well-written and full of super interesting ideas and concepts. I hope you like it!

how do you get all those little markings to stay put on your sculptures?? i admit i dont have much experience with ceramics, but i could never get clean lines with the glaze!

Great question! I don't know if anyone could do what I do with glaze; you'd have to be some kind of master worker or something, lol. The color markings on my sculptures aren't glaze—they're actually made using pigments, "stains" that can be painted onto bare clay and then covered with clear glaze.

Here, I'll put some pictures and explanation below the cut if you want to see the studio setup I have for this:

okay! so! I've got a lot of Mason Stains, which are powders specially made to survive the kiln heat and retain their color. I keep them on this shelf here, like so:

(my studio setup is in my bedroom, thus the open closet door next to my Stains Shelf.)

Anyway, next I take the powder pigment and mix it a little at a time with liquid starch, which is a pain but makes it less likely that I will accidentally touch the sculpture wrong and have all the powder come off onto my fingers like normal dust.

I then apply the pigment to the sculpture with a paintbrush and, if necessary, edit my lines by scraping the pigment back off with a sharp needle-point tool. Scraping the pigment off is how I do things like the white fur markings on the werewolf sculpture!

You can see the full process of my sculpture painting below with the the werewolf. Step 1 is to make the body; step 2 is to put pigments on; and step 3 is to add clear glaze and fire it!

You can also see how the pigments rest underneath the glaze in this photo of a moon bunny, where you can see how the clear glaze cracked ("crackled") as it cooled. The glaze also developed little bubbles, which you can see above the blue pigment in the inside of the bunny's ear. <3

Up for a moral quandary? Two men are stranded in a desert, trying to get to town. One man has a jug of water. If both men drink from the jug, neither will have the energy to get to town before they die. If one man keeps the jug for himself, he'll be able to make it to town, but leave the other to die.

What is the best course of action?

Wondering what Mechi or Kwahu would answer :)

Assuming the two men in this hypothetical are Mechi and Kwahu, the boys would probably have slightly different opinions. Mechi says if we go down, we go down together, while Kwahu is perhaps still very aware that he is not the original/not a "proper" person and that if Yamka gets anyone back, she deserves her "real" brother.

Of course, if anybody else is thrown into the scenario, it's Jones boys for themselves and hope that anyone else gets lost before they find their way to Sparks because they don't want more guests, dammit!!

Hi soda , I love your Nacht x reader headcanons. I have a request. How would nacht feel and react if his s/o wakes him up by peppering him with kisses.

Aaaaawwwww~! Thank you very much, Anon! I'm glad there are Nacht lovers out there who enjoy the Nacht love that I put out! And I'm more than happy to write a little more!

Thank you for your patience on this ask. I hope you, and anyone else who finds this post, enjoy these Nacht x reader thoughts.

Waking Nacht Faust with kisses

To be honest, I headcanon Nacht as sleeping like the dead. Once he's asleep, he's still as a stone and not easy to wake.

Nacht's s/o has asked if it's some kind of effect from his devil contracts and he'd say that it isn't. He's just always been that way.

The only things that can wake him are either just naturally stirring awake, being thrown out of bed, or an incredible loud sound directly to his ears.

So when it comes to morning kisses, Nacht's s/o would have to patiently wait for him to rouse before they started any kind of affection.

(Unless his s/o wants to kiss Nacht for a good fifteen minutes while he's still asleep. But where's the fun in that?/lh)

Once they get the first sign of Nacht waking, usually it's a small groan or his face scrunching up, then it begins.

There's always a "good morning" whispered first so Nacht knows that it's his partner greeting him.

After that greeting comes a little kiss to his temple, followed by a trail of little pecks along his jawline.

His s/o probably has a hand on his chest or caressing the other side of his face. Regardless, Nacht, even in his groggy, just-woken-up state would be able find their hand and hold it with his own.

Nacht would let out a little sound, something between a sigh and a chuckle.

He would just let his s/o continue to kiss him. He's learned that rejecting affection doesn't do anyone good. It hurts his lover's feelings and makes him feel lonely.

Although, maybe if Nacht woke up feeling like a tease, he'd intentionally turn away from his s/o and make them "chase" him a little to give more kisses. Playing hard to get once in a while keeps things from getting boring in the relationship.

A smooch on the cheek. Feather-light kisses on his forehead. Maybe a little peck on the tip of his nose if his s/o is feeling especially playful.

His s/o would be ready to kiss Nacht on the lips, only for him to put his hand between their faces.

Nacht, fully awake at that point (probably was fully awake earlier but only showing it now), would look at his s/o with a slight chiding expression.

"How very sweet of you. But the taste of morning breath certainly wouldn't be," he would remark.

"Mine or yours?" his partner would ask in reply. It's only a joke, both know that.

Once the couple have done their morning routine, only then would Nacht kiss his partner on the lips.

"With that, I'm truly ready for the day," Nacht would say with a smile, the kind of smile he reserves for his s/o alone.

Even when he's not woken with kisses, Nacht wants his partner to know that he loves being able to wake up with their presence next to him.

The occasional kissing wake up call just makes morning a little sweeter.

And, because Nacht wants the good to be rewarded, he'll find a way to turn the tables and be the one giving the wake up kisses sometime in the future.

Would you have any thoughts about the Gaang in a modern au (either with or without bending), especially jobs? I legit love how there’s never been a consensus of how they’d live, especially job wise, in the fandom — except for Katara, she is absolutely a doctor, surgeon, ER badass. Personally, I love the thought of Zuko as a child protective agent, and Sokka as a high school teacher, not just for the dramatic Zukka potential lol haha either way, I’d love to hear your thoughts!

aaa ok i love and adore to see how their roles get translated in modern au’s in such clever ways, i loveee your ideas for zukka workplace drama that’s so 🥺 ok i’ll list some of my faves but feel free to add

-doctor katara SO TRUE and activist katara also so true either way she’s helping people and giving all she’s got

-aang also activist monk-turned *insert job that has to do with flying?? or meteorology??* AND i love the silly little headcanon he and zuko are lion dance partners dkfjdj

-toph wwe champion. without question

- jet could also work with kids tbh as either a child protective agent too or teaching martial arts classes for kids as some sort of social program he zuko and toph have an underground fight club every tuesday he and iroh have a wholesome breaking bad situationship going on with banger edibles

- zuko the guy with 294737 job options tbh either as jasmine dragon clerk, firefighter, historian / khon expert and standing authority on the ramakien, parkour guy, sword guy, guy who goes to business school just to learn how to efficiently dismantle dad’s financial empire, and i am extremely partial on muai thay champion-instructor zuko who has like a post-injury gym program just for the zukka of it all of him helping sokka with his leg during rehab 😌

- sokka also guy that can do anything tbh wether working as inventor or in tech/mechanic fixing things, working at a science museum (hi robin), marine biologist (hi kath) working as an astronomer or at the planetarium bc he’s always been fascinated by the night sky and the moon, artist, poet, mythbuster, sword guy as well, all of these at once. most importantly he has an insanely popular food blog on the side

- suki kendo captain of an all-girl club

- florist mai. (specifically ikebana artist) which is comic canon and in context made little sense but i love it it’s beautiful bc it brings me to

- tattoo artist ty-lee 💕

- and azula uhhh nepobaby electrician

Hiiii not sure if anyone's asked this yet but any advice on how to improve on art & anatomy? I use to draw a lot wayyyy back in high school but then stopped because of life getting in the way but now I really wanted to get back into art but realized my art isn't as good as it use to be & I never really cared too much about studying anatomy so all my anatomy/proportions are really wack & I'd like to get better at it. Hope you're having a good day!!! 💞💞💞

HI!!! i dont have any formal training in anatomy nor have i really done any studies, so unfortunately i think i can only offer general advice, but hopefully you can still find it helpful! here's what i'd recommend based on my own experience...

focus on proportions BEFORE anatomy! nailing down the size/length of each body part in relation to each other will give you a good foundation before getting into the specifics of anatomy, since you can practice this with simple shapes (circles, boxes, tubes, etc.). then practice anatomy/build on top of that, rather than trying to figure them out in parallel

practice from real life observation/references (ex. figure drawing)! even if you want to draw stylized, it'll be much more helpful in the long run if you study from real life. you'll be a lot more informed in how body parts actually connect to each other or how they move. observe observe observe! take pics of yourself/watch how your body moves--you can be your own most accessible resource, and a mirror and camera can be your best friends

find a way to keep yourself motivated to practice anatomy! everyone says that you only get better with practice and time... and it's true! but i can understand that sometimes it's hard to motivate yourself. if you ask me, draw your favorite characters :) it's literally all i do HAHA. my mentality is that... if i'm drawing something that i like then the practice feels less of a chore lol
