I love it when a fellow corporate gay immediately clocks me for being gay their first day on the job and first question is: what are your pronouns?
Felt nice to be seen.
#korracrat talks#ok to rb#tbh i think its pretty obvious with my green french braided mohawk#evil eye pendant#and gray flannel#but still it was nice to be seen#lgbtqia#lgbt

Several weeks ago one of my coworkers called me over into her cubicle and gave me a very unexpected gift. Her mother passed away recently, and she'd been packing stuff up at her condo to give to relatives and sell, so the home could be sold. The mother was an avid knitter and crocheter, and when my coworker came upon her stash of equipment, she told me, she "immediately thought of me as someone who might get some use out of it."
So, I have inherited a varied collection of knitting needles and crochet hooks, cable needles, sewing needles, and, best of all, now-out-of-print pattern books, mostly for blankets, because that was what this lady loved to make most. Plus, I also have a bunch of gauge swatches she made, pinned to little bits of card covered in perfect schoolteacher handwriting setting out the patterns they were made to test.
And also...
My coworker brought another bag, full of yarn and...knitted blanket squares. Her mother's last started project, before she got too sick to continue. And she asked if there was anything I could do with it.
It turned out, there are twelve completed squares, and I quickly located the pattern book they are from amid those given to me. It's a book of 60 patterns, meant to be put together however the maker wishes into blankets of 20 squares. I figured out which of the numbered patterns were already made, and selected eight more that I thought might go well with them.
So now! I am working on completing! My coworker's mother's last knitting project!
And I really am feeling very good about doing it.
#kidk says stuff#knit#i love making blankets anyway and these patterns are honestly cool#i already have most of the equipment i'd ever need but i still feel warm and fuzzy having this old gal's stuff too#my coworker thought of me ;__; she's seen my scarves and the table runners and stuff i have in my cubicle#she gave me precious things from her mother's beloved hobby because she 'knew i wouldn't let them go to waste'!#i feel very much like a human being and a member of a community because of this idk it's just nice all right?#crafts#blanket completion project

Oh, Aang, you're really in it now...
This is Zu—I mean, Jian Li and Katara's second meeting in the Kyoshi Warriors AU. The first proper one, anyway.
Once they get through a minor difference of opinion or two (“I can carry my own basket!” “Never said you—” “I'm not weak!” “I didn't—” “Just because I'm a girl doesn't mean—” “Would you listen for once, woman?!” ) they'll become nearly inseparable.
For now Jian Li will carry Katara's basket all the way to the Kyoshi Warriors' dojo and, once there, they'll mercilessly tease Sokka when they see him in uniform.
#zutara#atla#zuko#avatar the last airbender#katara#kyoshi warriors au#atla art#atla fanart#prince zuko#katara of the southern water tribe#kyoshi warrior ursa au#kyoshi warrior zuko#zutara fanart#zutara au#zuko fanart#atla zuko#katara fanart#kyoshi warriors#kyoshi island#They're a complete menace once they get going. Breaking hearts all over the Earth Kingdom and turning Sokka's hair grey prematurely#Aang is just a little puppy who made a few sarcastic remarks at the wrong time. But it got Zuko thinking out loud so that works too#Katara heard him and while she very secretly agrees (what did he mean “that doesn't sound like fun either”? He should've helped her!)...#she's also the Avatar's number one defender and needs to protect his honor. Agni bless the child.#And then poor Zuko offers to carry her basket because he's seen her do all the work alone and the freaking Avatar has just refused to help#And momma Ursa raised a gentleman. So of course he wants to help!#But Katara's had to deal with Sokka's “traditional views on women” all the way to Kyoshi and Aang is busy with his little fanclub#And now this extremely handsome stranger who's really just trying to be nice (he's also so awkward it's adorable) offers to carry her basket#And he's being really nice and sweet and considerate about it damn it#Of course she snaps!#She still thanks him for his help tho. Once they absolutely murder Sokka with their teasing they become a package deal.

you're nice to people who are bald or balding, right? you're nice to people with high hairlines? or weird hair growth? right? you don't make mean jokes about going bald at the expense of people who are going through the very scary and usually very isolating process of losing hair?? right???
#sorry (?not really?) but finding high hairlines beautiful has 100000% fixed my self image issues AND made me nicer.#you should be nice to people with little or weird or no hair. i dont want to get depressing but hair loss can be so terrifyingly isolating#be nice!!#you really do NOT know who of your loved ones or friends you are hurting with funny haha bald jokes. and if you DO know who youre hurting#and are still making them anyways#im coming for you.#barkbarkbarkbark#you should be nice to people regardless of physical traits but like#ive seen an uptick in haha bald is ugly jokes on tumblr specifically so im biting tumblr

My deep gnome bard Pandora! She's a major antagonist in our campaign and she might be just a little bit obsessed with the moon. That's bad news for everyone.
#dungeons and dragons#dnd#bard#deep gnome#dnd bard#dnd gnome#artists on tumblr#digital art#eeri art#OC: Pandora#Gonna share more about her later#She's still mostly a mystery and hasn't made many appearances in the game yet#But is one of the few people our party is actually afraid of so she did leave an impression for sure!#They haven't seen her in a long time and that's probably not worrying at all. Surely she's only doing nice things

something something the main cargo of the tulbar being mouthwash and its main advertising slogan being 'kills 99% of germs without leaving a bad taste'
something something Jimmy desperate to remove the rest of the crew and his mistakes, so far as to try and crash the ship so he doesn't have to face what he did to Anya, killing 99% of germs and bacteria everyone and himself so he won't have to face the bad taste in his mouth consequences of it all
something something eating curly to survive, feeding curly to himself to survive, the fact that human cannabalism infects you in a way you can't heal (prion disease), something something mouthwash will rinse it out, something something have your terrible actions and the consequences they bring without feeling guilty if you just wash it down with delusions mouthwash
something along those lines
#mouthwashing#mouthwashing game#catfish speaks#mouthwashing jimmy#mouthwashing curly#i still havent seen many people talk about the mouthwash at all#its maybe such a small part of the main story and uncovered pretty early but i think its so important#given the game is called mouthwashing#like ive seen people mention the removes germs bit but not anything else#especially not yue fact that mouthwash is designed to clean and leave a nice taste#almost like you had a bad taste in your mouth you wanted to get rid of#actions youd done that you dont want yo take responsibility for#idk i wanna see more analysis abiut it! i think its so clever!!!#granted i haven't been looking#but this is an open invitation for people to talk aboit it yo me#please

Custody Battle: START
[First] Prev <--> Next
#poorly drawn mdzs#mdzs#jin guangyao#jin ling#wei wuxian#jiang cheng#lan xichen#Jiang Cheng did NOT care to talk to anyone else. He just straight up hones in on finding his nephew.#Jin Ling has had a tummy ache from all the guilt though. Look at that face. You have to be nice JC.#The third panel should have had a more chaotic energy. But onwards we go!#I feel like I have seen very little about the shared custody relationship between JGY and JC.#It's pretty evident that JC has had a large role in raising Jin Ling. As too has JGY. They also seem to have a very familiar banter here.#JGY has 'the nicer parent in the divorce because he only sees the kid(s) every other weekend'. JC is dealing with everything else.#Anyways. This is how xicheng-ers can still win. Jiang Cheng is the 4th in the 3zun polycule.#He might just not know it yet.

I hate to be that one person who’s like when ur so busy ur not consumed by other people or being in a relationship blah blah blah …. But truly when u have ur hands full you could fucking care less and it’s so liberating
#Like the moment you get busy the desperation to be seen by other ppl#Both platonically and romantically#Goes away so fast#I’m very dangerous when I’m in these moods bc it’s easy to push good ppl away when you’re too#Focused on yourself#But also I like not being that anxious about anyone#Like it’s not that deep#It’s its own kind of nice even though ik it’s such a slippery slope#Also the obsession to be in a relationship or the being scared of being alone goes away so fast#It truly sucks that the “have hobbies/goals” advice works so well but it DOES#Not that I’m advocating for anyone to be a hermit like ofc human connection still matters#The desperation is just not there so it’s much less high stakes if it’s not in ur life rn#Like how can you be wasting time if ur getting to know urself better

mostly Very old strange someone frisk au doodles…. don’t believ the timestamps in that one img i started these a long while ago now
and a knight chara theory/au doodle bc i like combining them
EDIT: WAIT ALSO I JUST RELAIZED. W THE TVLANDOFFICIAL ONE. if i remember correctly which i very well might Not, there was an anon that kickstarted tenna’s Secret Boss-ification by sending her an image of herself in the light world, which is what the drawing was based on
#i have one more comic but I want to make that one actually look nice#deltarune#the art gallery#strange someone frisk#im. so wary to tag this at ut or dr. bc it’s just an au frisk#knight chara#AND THEM but still#CONTEXT FOR THE LAST ONE: knight chara is deltarune chara & ss frisk is undertale frisk#so these two have technically never met eachother. frisk is kinda Going Through It secret boss style & assumed that this was the same chara#they have not seen chara in Years

I Know What You Are... You Are Mega Man!
The differences between each Mega is something I love and appreciate, plus it's also fun to compare them side-by-side for it.
I think it's really amusing how they start with robots that slowly reach near-human traits, and then there's a straight-up human. Albeit, he is merged with a non-human being.
And then there's Volnutt. I know he could probably be narrowed down to an "artificial human", but I like the idea of tying him to his celestial origins as Trigger that are still half a mystery.
Such is my running-joke with him. He is just... Volnutt (currently).
#also I needed these because I wanted to update my refs for The Bois (it's been 7981374102 years)#like a lot of them got adjustments to their color palettes ^^#even though I can't color as much because I get so dizzy now#I still want them for later#and I haven't colored in forever I'm just glad it turned out nice#anywho~#I've seen how some fans have depicted designs for trigger and they seem so cool!#I'd love to give it a go too but I worry my peanut brain on legends will cause me to get schooled again#I never know nothing about you boy apparently I'm very sorry#so alone in the dark I will remain (he is a mystery :D )#Mew's Art#megaman#rockman#megaman x#rockman x#megaman exe#megaman.exe#rockman exe#hub hikari#saito hikari#star force megaman#ryuusei no rockman#geo stelar#subaru hoshikawa#omega-xis#warrock#rock volnutt#*I am crushed by the giant name tags once again*
