I have been SO devastated over Chopper changing his hat, but it turns out he just stuck a helmet over his little top hat to protect it and now everything is right with the world again

there are no rules to what's a trinket. you find something and it's pretty/meaningful to you then damn, that's a pretty good trinket.

however, trinkets must never be stolen. always make sure you are only in possession of ethically sourced trinkets.

here are some of my trinkets.

*yeets this and runs*

My hand regrets my decision to try for more realistic wings, frankly

Transcriptions:

Mabel Pines - Steller's Jay

Dipper Pines - Blue Jay

fledglings

can't quite fly yet

wing's aren't adult-sized yet

Dipper often forgets to preen

Mabel likes to put glitter in her wings (and Dipper's, when possible)

Dipper collects his primaries to make quill pens

Mabel collects their feathers for crafting

Yeah so I'm just gonna drop this here and uhhhhh run, thanks for checking this, and I hope you have a good day

So we know that in the novel that ludger cherish is compared to a raven, he has that whole dark aesthetic going on, and not to mention one of his identities uses a plague doctor mask which is very “raven” looking (idk if that one’s a stretch or not). But he also is highly intelligent, and mimicry- something that ravens are known for- is something he does with ease. (also fun fact that I didn’t know until comparing the two, ravens uses ‘non-verbal’ or ‘hand gestures’ to communicate, and in the manwa you can clearly see that ludger cherish often uses his hands when speaking. And I thought that was funny.)

so what if he also liked collecting shiny things like ravens as well? We already know he can easily be swayed by money yeah? So my personal head cannon, Heathcliff/ludger cherish, loves to collect shiny things. That shiny Little Rock (his), that shiny thing that came out of Quasimodo (snatched), that cute little hair pin (finders keepers). But not just shiny things, things like books as well. That small notebook sized dictionary (might as well), that thick book that’s really far too inconvenient to lug around? (Who’s gonna stop him? Casey? She’s currently helping him.)

I found your art on Pinterest. Is it okay?

No, of course it's not okay. But it's Pinterest, and everyone knows that everything on Pinterest is full of stuff that's reposted from other sites. Pinterest is just a place for people to easily amass images that they like into organized boards for various reasons.

As long as money or defamation/impersonation/copyright infringement isn't involved, then legally I cannot really do much and I'm not inclined to care about what people do on Pinterest.

It’s been a while since I’ve done some hoard posting, so here’s some trinkets and treasures that I don’t think I’ve shown yet. There’s crystals, fossils, shells, coral, and some other odd things. 

There’s also a bunch of origami stars I made, I keep them in a little jar with spider-shaped confetti (㇏(•̀ᵥᵥ•́)ノ) The little grey and brown bat is actually one of my favourite childhood toys that I recently found again! ♡ (๑❛ᴗ❛๑୨୧)𐐚

Crow (Corvus brachyrhynchos) skull I found around my uni campus and cleaned. Gonna try to go back for some of the other bones too.

𝐈 . as aforementioned, any transphobia will result in a block. this includes racism, homophobia, antisemitism, and any sort of other discrimination against minorities. be a generally courteous person, not an ignorant loudly proclaiming prejudice.

𝐈𝐈 . activity is sparse. real life comes first. with that in mind, be aware my silence is due from external means. tumblr writing is not my obligation, it is a side project and/or hobby.

adding onto this, i tend to reply slowly to both IC and OOC interactions. my real life outranks writing in my priority scale. please do not push me for replies, it worsens my anxiety &. it will lead to socially distancing from said individual. nothing against the person, it is an innate bad habit.

𝐈𝐈𝐈 . i openly ship. if i have an idea for romantic chemistry, i may reference it. however, i will not push it upon another, nor would i appreciate others pushing their characters onto me.

𝐈𝐕 . no, you are not spamming my inbox. always send prompts or memes. i wholeheartedly welcome it. so long as there is no anonymous hate sent, my inbox is open to all.

𝐕 . i am an adult. i presume most of my followers are. please act your age; any drama, vague-posting, harassment will result in an instantaneous block. this isn't twitter, you're not a vigilante seeking justice. resolve your issues privately.

i do not like to block people. however, when it concerns perpetuating drama on the dashboard, inciting harassment toward other writers, i disavow. i will hard-block you. regardless of what contents it has, i do not want the additional stress in my life. if you intend to reblog callouts, please tag them appropriately with "cw drama" or "drama".

𝐕𝐈 . if you intend to block me out of the blue, please inform me why out of sheer courtesy. this is not an enforced policy, it is more-so my wanting to understand why. i will not be offended if you choose not to.

𝐕𝐈𝐈 . Normally I do not mind, but if you refer to me as your “friend” after having only 3 separate conversations and nothing personal entailing them, then we are not friends, we are acquaintances. furthermore, if you begin to "love bomb" ( read the definition here ) me on our first interaction, i will be wary of your intentions. i do not assume said person harbors malicious intent, it comes from previous experiences wherein love-bombing resulted in built-up resentment from unresolved conflicts not imparted on both sides.

TO CLARIFY: that does not mean i am unreceptive to establishing friendships, this is entirely false. there is a lot of nuance when it comes to online interactions &. setting social boundaries. i welcome people to directly message me on here or on tumblr ! this guideline simply exists solely to help un-blur the line between what constitutes a friend from an acquaintance. a friend knows who you are outside the screen; there is consistent, constant interaction off tumblr. whereas an acquaintance is when both parties have tangible interactions, only knowing each other at surface-level.

Could I get a care kit for a Third Life Grian with lots of bird and sand related things? fluffy/soft things and stim toys would be especially appreciated! -Grian🍁

hello! i hope you'll find the items to you liking, grian!

I find it deeply amusing that it's a 'murder' of crows, but only an 'unkindness' of ravens.

Incidentally, it's a 'clattering' of jackdaws, a 'tiding' of magpies, and a 'parliament' of rooks.

The Rook!

A very looked over Corvid I think. Glossed over as crow adjacent but I think you're missing out, the bare base to the bill can be off-putting but draws attention away from the grey bill, iridescent feathers and feathery legs.

Smaller than the Carrion Crow the Rook sports a beak more adapted to its feeding habits, probing, now locally youll see them along the grass verges amongst the Jackdaw thier more slender sharp looking beaks pressing down into the soil in reach of worms and beetles and the like.

This social aspect is notable when they come home to roost in an evening chorus en masse as they settle down in colonies amongst the trees and in winter often with the Jackdaw too.

Crows might be cool but maybe its better to be a Rook after all.
