This is going to be short bc i already have a post up explaining this situation, but I started having seizures, which led to medical costs I couldn't handle bc I have an autoimmune disorder that's been going untreated for years. I got the appts covered bc of an extremely generous friend on here, and had some additional medication costs which I thankfully had enough for. I've been applying to at least 10 jobs a day and had tons of interviews. I'm going through interviews and assessments for several jobs (got more scheduled for tomorrow) Then my card got stolen, and now I am screwed as far as rent goes, even if one of these jobs comes through like today we will still fall short because rent is due on the 1st and we don't get a grace period. I am trying to get the money that was taken when my card was stolen back, but I have been told to wait to hear back after submitting all the details, and have yet to hear back.

Dm me for proof or more details. I will do art for anyone who helps with this and you can commission me at my art blog @theartistrans I just desperately need to get rent. My roommates and I have a huge food garden planted and are working towards self-sufficiency, which we have no hope of if we can't pay rent.

older tmm girls with upgraded outfits!

been wanting to do smth like this for a while and ended up just…sketching them all. Oops. I wanted them to look similar to the originals, simple to draw, still cohesive as a group, too, but also have like. Hints to their foods and DNA in the designs? Also I wanted to draw Gowns. Very self indulgent designs 😌

Tried a bit of dyeing. The buckthorn berries out front are a lot harder to get than last year, but luckily they're a pretty potent dyestuff, and a handful or two is enough to dye an armful or so of wool.

Last year i got a beautiful golden green.

This year... at first, kind of blueish purple ? I ended up doing a quick test to see how it feels about being alkali or acidic. The acidic one basically just turned white again, which is kind of hihilarious. The alkali one though turned a bit green. In my test I didn't add any extra dye broth, just fresh water and lemon juice/baking soda.

Ive gotten better results adding a bunch of dye liquid into the alkali pot though, so I tried it here. We'll see the results. This id definitely a more blue green than yellow green like my last one.

Ive read that you get bluer dye the earlier the berries are harvested, which checks out here. Last year it was late summer and I picked dried berries from the ground. This year, they have just started ripening in earnest and are not dried.

Anyway, did not weigh anything of course but it was maybe 2 double handfuls of fresh early berries and an armful of wool mordanted in alum. First I cooked the berries on low, then mashed them, cooked a little longer on low (maybe 3 hours total), added the mordanted wool, cooked for another 3 or so hours. Then added to alkali bath with lots of extra dye broth.

With the exhaust, which is just as strong looking, I added another armful of wool, this time unmordanted, with a glug or so of copper mordant. Partway thru pouring I realized, ah, the copper mordant is suspended in vinegar so this will be acidic so I will probably get no color.

Curious if that will be true. If it takes on no color before I go to bed I will probably add a lot of baking soda and see what that does. But I'm hoping copper mordant = even stronger green.

I also read that if you can remove the buckthorn skins you can get blue.... now that would be a treat. It sounds labor intensive but I want to try it later if I can. Ive never gotten blue with foraged materials before.

Wool I'm using is clun forest x shetland.

Few other things: I've noticed recently that berries seem to produce much better results if you can cook them on low for only a short while. 3 hours counts as short in the world of natural dyeing; I've had dyepots on for 48 hours pretty regularly. Onion skins for example do best if you can get every last scrap of color from the skins, which can take several days. Berries, though...not so much. I think this could explain my pokeberry issues. I hope i can try with them again.

The mental warfare Snow inflicted upon Katniss is so much darker and more sinister when you consider how the whispers of Lucy Grays ghost he saw within her was the root cause and ultimately it was a his own demons he was fighting and Katniss was an unknowing participant in a game that entirely existed within his own head.
