Crafting Success

As we transition into March, it’s a great time to reflect on the intentions we want to set and the paths we wish to take as we enter into a new month. March arrives guided by the theme and idea of Crafting Success, echoing the sentiment of the Eight of Pentacles, the tarot card drawn representing three theme of the month. This month invites us to contemplate how personal growth can unfold through…

I made a few new wax seal stamps out of clay (like the ones I did for my worldbuilding stuff forever ago), this time just of random symbols that I thought might look good done in the style of painting over the raised part of the wax or etc. :0c Some of them aren't carved deep enough to really show up that well, but overall they worked okay for being clay lol

fr though you have to write bad poetry. poems are not handed down to you fully formed by god they are things that you have to work on and practice your skill at creating. nobody would expect you to sit down at a pottery wheel and end up with a perfect vase with no practice. it's a skill! art is a learned thing!! you have to make the shitty little pots with dents and marks and your fingerprints all over them in order to get better. and you're allowed to be proud of those first little pots you made too

s4 tomshiv is murdering me...the tension is so peak, matthew macfadyen and sarah snook have so much fucking chemistry, the history between tom and shiv is more dynamic and layered with every line of dialogue, they're insane, i'm insane, never has the line between love and hatred, desire and disgust, been more fluid, i'm going to gnaw off my own arm...thank you and goodnight

I loveeee hearing the succession writers talk about writing it's so clear that it's a collaborative effort of a group of people very passionate about writing & that very much respect the intelligence of their audience like

• when writing for an episode they'd go "how would we write this if it was a sitcom" "how would we write this if it was a tragedy" etc so they know where they want the scene to go tonally

• every joke has to be a joke only that character would say, if it's a joke that could be said by anyone they scrap it to avoid one-liner type jokes

• Jesse approaches writing dialogue with the assumption that the characters are always lying about something

• if the characters seem to be getting better or learning from their mistakes they scrap it - the point is that they will never learn the cycle will never stop

• they'll pitch random situations about the characters eg "what if Kendall became a baseball player" and figure out what it would take for that to happen (this is how the tom betrayal arc came to be)

Infinite list of favourite lyrics: 225/?

Billy Joel - Big Shot (1978)

"Well, you went uptown riding in your limousine,

With your fine Park Avenue clothes;

You had the Dom Pérignon in your hand

And the spoon up your nose.

Ooh, and when you wake up in the morning

With your head on fire

And your eyes too bloody to see,

Go on and cry in your coffee

But don't come bitchin' to me."

A Lot Can Change in a Year

Would you believe it's been a year since I started journaling? I originally started this blog because I like to make stationery art and wanted a place to put those pages.

However, I fell into mainstream bullet journaling because among those who like to decorate their journals, it has a lot of overlap with my hobby.

What I have discovered is that this method of keeping track of my life really works for me. I get to feed into my need to be creative by making pretty but useful journal layouts and have a system that gives me the feedback I need to keep going.

And a lot has changed for me. I am overall happier, healthier and am to do the things I like doing. It has also brought to the surface issues I wasn't aware I was having (the ADHD) and allowing me to deal with it.

Making this page gave me a chance to celebrate the changes that have made my life better, and remind myself, a lot has changed.

seeing an improvement in how bioware handles decisions in past games and making them “matter” in subsequent ones was on my wishlist but also inquisition had an entire subtext/dlc about the inquisitor’s individuality and personhood being consumed and erased so like—

A quick roundup of the hats I made this week. On a quieter day I can make one hat a day, and I set myself that goal this week. It’s a bigger task than just making the item … with photographs to be taken and then listing on our two online platforms, it can take a wee while to complete. It definitely helped that all the seedlings are now in the garden … 😅 Anyway, I did it … yay, so happy. 🎉 … Now to enjoy some sunshine in the garden and just relax. ☺️😊🌲🌱

Ps: All of the hats are available via the link in our bio and on our Folksy shop ‘Heelan Homestead Ltd’. All of them are reversible and can be worn as a slouchy or folded back as a beanie.
