I was tagged by @clove-pinks to make myself in this Picrew and post the last song I've listened to. Thanks, Shaun! You're the best.

I'd like to tag @even-in-arcadia, @bloomrebounds, @georges-chambers, @brimstone-cowboy, and @thebaffledcaptain– only if they'd like to do this, of course. And if anyone I didn't mention would like to do this, consider yourselves tagged!

couldn’t listen all the way through | not my thing | it’s okay | kinda catchy | ok i really like this | downloading immediately | already in my library

Thank you for this lovely recommendation, my friend! I don't know why I didn't know this song yet, but I now know I definitively needed to know it, thank you! Thematically catering to my interests, tragic, and viscerally moving. Thank you!

#these looks are achievable for any man regardless of his age or body size (important information from historian @clove-pinks in the tags)

Besides the ever-delightful miwackulous tyes, what are some of your other favorite fanciful (or less fanciful, even) 19th century fashion trends?

I have to say, besides miwackulous tyes, I have a great weakness for all manner of mid-century loud fashion, like plaids and pattern mixing:

This is the ideal male fashion. You may not like it, but this is what peak performance looks like.

I also love military uniforms of the 19th century, and the 1810s are tops for that—even civilian fashion of this era has a military influence.

The watch key and seal with body-conscious pantaloons... *chef's kiss*

I love 19th century male bijouterie in general. Showy watch chains, and there was also a trend of multiple tie pins connected by a chain:

(Unlike the watch chain, the tie chain serves no practical purpose and is literally just for ornamentation).

A jewelled pin on the cravat can also become a jewelled pin or brooch on the shirt front!

'Clove, In Between Realms' | Valorant Fan Art

I've always had a wee bit of anxiety about making Riot Fan-Art [largely because I admire their work], so this was my attempt at essentially telling myself to stop worrying and just try something for once lol Clove is an adorable enby character and plays really interestingly in Valorant, so I decided to give them a bit of love in the form of a fan art :)

Let me know what you think! <3

What have you read lately that has really altered your brain chemistry, as the kids say?

Oooff. Lord. Good question, Shaun. I've been reading a lot more in the last year than I had for the previous five or so combined.

That said, the most recent one that I would say "altered my brain chemistry" was The Left Hand of Darkness, in April of last year. It was recommended by my friend @artcorevelay, probably due to the perilous polar journey, but more importantly, due to the gender of it all. World-building-heavy science fiction isn't usually my thing, but the book is just full of banger lines and emotional gut-punches, and I keep finding myself thinking about it at the most and least likely of times.

That said, I probably did some pretty intense psychic damage to myself reading The Left Hand Of Darkness and watching The Terror for the first time within 3-5 business months of each other. Like... you mean I can be Seen and Known and Loved For Who I Am, I just need to go on an 800-mile perilous journey and probably die in order for it to happen? Cool, when can we start?

Thank you so much for the ask! Please feel free to send me messages whenever.

Arcade feature #1: Beatrix Potter

"When it rains, I sit in my little sandy burrow and shell corn and seeds from my Autumn store. I peep out at the throstles and blackbirds on the lawn, and my friend Cock Robin. And when the sun comes out again, you should see my garden and the flowers—roses and pinks and pansies—no noise except the birds and bees, and the lambs in the meadows."
