I love when I see posts like "Share how many crochet WIPs you currently have! I have 5, it's so many!"
Like, girl, I have unfinished projects from over a decade ago that I refuse to frog on the off chance I decide to finish them. I've found years-old projects I forgot I even started and will impulsively just finish it on the spot. I've started three different projects in the last 2 months, including one I started yesterday, that I already know I may or may not finish within the year depending on motivation.
The number of WIPs I have is infinite.
#crochet#knitting#needlepoint#sewing#embroidery#shoutout to the time it took me 4 years to make my dad a hat. and like 6 years to make a turtle for a teacher.#i picked up yarn spinning for ONE day in like 2017. i have not done it since.#there's a half finished elephant amigurumi sitting in a basket and i started that guy in like 2011#i have two maybe three shawls i know of that are sitting unfinished in a storage bag#plenty of swatches of things that i start and lose interest in#currently i have a cardigan i wanted to make and started it and then got bored so i stopped#there's a hat i was knitting for my nanna that i started maybe 2 days before she passed#and that's sat unfinished i can't even look at it. i have no clue if i'll ever actually finish it.#there's at least one skirt i never finished sewing. and two skirts i have all the materials for but haven't started.#i know i have one beach cover up dress and one cover up skirt that i started in 2017 and didn't finish.#i think my oldest work in progress though dates back to when i was 9 or 10. i made a slipper. never finished the other foot.#that was in 2005 or 06. so literally i might have WIPs older than someone who is reading this.#and those are the just some of the ones i REMEMBER. buried in my yarn stash are probably others i've just forgotten.

You’re gonna die if you keep that up (Patreon)
#Doodles#SCII#Damned#ZEX#Kayako#And Teisel's there technically#*Die again - he's sticking with his track record lol at least he's consistent#Ghost/Curse GF arc!! I enjoy seeing ZEX happy but I am Concerned for him lol#ZEX be attracted to something/one that won't brutally murder him challenge - difficulty impossible#His affection for the grotesque and monstrous - I mean while it's admirable he does regularly put himself in dangerous situations!#Runs solely on the Suspension Bridge Effect lol - attraction and fear so conflated in his mind <3#I keep thinking of his human instincts as specifically Max's instincts since it's his body - Max's self-preservation and fear and hunger#Which ZEX dutifully ignores lol Max's body tells him to bolt and privately replies like ''Yes yes in a moment'' haha#His fascination wins out! To his own detriment haha#Although I say all that as though I don't relate in my own way - I have maybe just a few too many notes relating to ZEX lol#It's always been hard for me to get into horror in the way it's intended to spook and scare because I tend to get sad :')#So many monsters and ghosts and creatures are victims of circumstance! Like Kayako! As she is here she's not even malicious just dangerous#I've never seen the Grudge so it's only speculation but it seems very sad that she was tethered as a Curse rather than a malignant spirit#Like a battery moreso than an individual - what a terrible after-existence! It makes me sad to consider!#ZEX reaching out to her in his own way is very sweet <3 He's so biased towards his darlings hehe#In a way being human does suit him - we'll packbond with anything that Might have even the slightest inclination to not maim us lol#And the way he personifies her! (VUXonifies her?) Reading intention or emotion into her actions with no proof and no understanding!#The way he ''tries to read her face'' as if he hasn't been struggling with that this entire time - with other humans who can tell him so ♪#His pride is so delicious <3 He is so easily blinded to his own shortcomings in the face of pleasure and the potential for connection!#It's no wonder DAX worries about him so much hehe ♥#It also always makes me so happy to have something fit together so perfectly like those last two hehe <3#That vine didn't exist when this happened! But there it is!! I love newer memes on older media hehehe ♪♫

mmm essay about sally and kid gort in the tags (cw for child abuse, mentions of suicide, animal cruelty and a murder attempt. i always hope i don’t have to say this but just in case: i don’t excuse or condone any of her or gort’s behaviour at all.) this is literally not even touching upon everything i have to say because i hit the fucking tag limit lmao. NOBODY READ IT’S BAD BRAINSTORMING I JUST NEEDED TO GET IT OUT SOMEHOW
#thinkin too much about gortie side characters again.#sally this time and why she specifically talks about him the way she does#like dravo is obviously still shitty but to me he was. ‘just ‘neglectful#while sally actively hated and even felt terrorised by her own child#like. it’s not like i don’t understand her at all.#imagine you and your love don’t have much besides each other and your shop and you get pregnant and ready to raise a child#only for it to not be a child he didn’t and doesn’t cry ever and he learns everything so much sooner than most but then he never calls you#his parents and it’s not just a petty thing kids do sometimes you feel that he doesn’t see you as family and the worst part is that you#agree deep down#and as he gets older he doesn’t have any friends and actively rejects the notion of the entire concept#but then as time passes you hear about how he has entire groups of children following him and then several of them commit suicide#and that thing coming to sit with you and dravo at the dinner table says that he did what you did last week when the axe to chop wood broke#and you discarded it and got a new one#and he has these habits of ripping out flowers and making sure that they don’t regrow#and then you hear rumours about a friend’s daughter’s cat disappearing and think nothing of it#until you visit his tree house a month later and find a declawed cat and birds with clipped wings and crushed bugs that he keeps fondly#and then you see him with other children and they don’t know and his face is different and body language is entirely different#and were it not for the fact that you know better you would never see anything but a normal child#and you know that you are one who painstakingly brought this thing that should not be into the world and so you decide to end it all one da#and go to him as he’s asleep with the knife shaking in your hand#but he cries when you’re above him! screams at the top of his lungs!#so you beg for forgiveness even though you don’t deserve it through tears but as soon as the knife is put away you see the act drop and fee#his clever fingers having twisted your brain inside and out and you know that you can do nothing#and so the opportunity arises to at least remove him out of your life if not everyone’s lives and you take it immediately.#but you heard him talk. how he will close his fist around the world one day. and you know that it is not a matter of if but when.#like. imagine that. jesus dude.#like i hc her as someone that is messy and does not know a lot about life and she certainly wouldn’t have been a good mother but the love#or at least desire to love is there somewhere. and believing that having a child is really the only somewhat meaningful thing she can do#with her life. she’s not some hero or rich or anything of note. so there’s a lot obligation and not genuine desire for family here.#but she never really got the chance to be an actual mother in the first place so. who knows what that might have looked like

Having recognized now that I probably had undiagnosed ADHD and autism during my childhood, I keep remembering things that make me go, oh shit, those were symptoms, weren't they?
#undiagnosed neurodivergent#undiagnosed autistic#undiagnosed#autistic#autism#today my older brother straight up told my dad “leave her alone she's stimming” when he told me to stop sitting on the floor#it was great because he shut up#even though he refuses to entertain the motion that i might be neurodivergent#literally three hours after he told me i should “tone down my weirdness” when i go to university in order to fit in

House of The Dragon: Visella Targaryen, second-born daughter of King Viserys I and Queen Aemma Arryn, sister to Princess Rhaenyra Targaryen
around 10 years younger than Rhaenyra and grew up looking up to her (show timeline)
dragonrider from the age of 10
supports her sister's claim to the throne
survives the Dance but her dragon does not
#i know everyone and their mothers have used freya as a targ fc but this is for ME (you guys can also look at it if you want to)#she is basically just an updated version of my old targ oc#hotd oc#house of the dragon oc#targaryen oc#so according to her old lore she had an oc love interest#idk what i'm gonna do with her now though hmm#her dragon had a lorebreaking name i stole from tolkien so i'll have to think of a new one#morfydd as her older fc is something that can be so personal for me#i'm probably not shipping her with any canon character#because i have ships between the canon characters already and don't feel like inserting an oc into those#so if i even give her a love interest it might be an oc too#oc: visella targaryen

I hate when Mari Kaizumi takes over my thoughts
Okay Mari, I know you feel complete guilt over this whole fiasco, but you shouldn’t conclude that Yuichiro hates you to the point he thinks you’re fucking satan
>:3
Speaking about this, Imma actually share a taisho era secret relating to this AU:
Riko is actually dead in this AU too! Yay! She died in a mission while Mari was in a 2 week long comatose. And thus, prevented her from receiving the bow! And also this adds more guilt juice to her already guilt-filled mind. Despite being all silly, sunshine and rainbows, she’s carrying a lot of guilt and she probably needs to book for a therapist.
On a brighter side, the Minami’s (Mari’s relative family) took her in as their daughter and took care of her while living in her mansion so they could check up on her. She’s less of a Kaizumi and more of a Minami in a sense.,..
And I’m calling this bow-less Mari AU as an alternative name
#cloudy shitposts#kny#demon slayer#kimetsu no yaiba#kny oc#demon slayer oc#kimetsu no yaiba oc#kny yuichiro#yuichiro tokito#on a plus side#hiyori somehow is able to fill the role as an older sister figure#even if she’s younger than her#Mari would probably never admit this though#actually i lied she might#losing siblings is really something in this au

Kills me that Miri thinks the guy who shot her bio dad is cool because he shoots guns good
#buddy daddies#i think she's going to be okay growing up tbh. she knew she was in danger in that situation!! that's why her papas are her papas - cus they#SAVED her. she's already got that figured out and remains pretty steadfast of that opinion. even though she's only 5!#i can see her being a lot like karin when she grows up - understanding of what happened but at peace with it. there will probably be more#layers to come to terms with as she gets older - and kazuki has a bad habit of lying to her about important things which might confuse#things but she's not afraid to tell kazuki when he screws up and i think that means a lot. so i think she'll be okay.#hell she might even be proud of her killer backstory - puns and all =u= LOL

did i ever tell y’all about my little cousin who i’m very patiently waiting for her to turn 12 or 13 so i can get her to read city of bones as a long term comedic revenge plot against her father
#she’s only like 8 i think there’s still a ways to go#and thank god for that because i hardly ever see her rn so i still need time to build it up#idek how much of a reader she is at this stage but her parents read so i imagine she’s gonna be a reader too#she’s not an ipad baby like her cousins i have high hopes for her#basically the backstory is that her dad (guy who married my older first cousin when i was 10. he’s basically been around forever tho)#he used to make fun of me for my ya fantasy books (jokingly he was never actually Mean) and when they had a daughter i realized there was a#perfect way to enact some hilarious revenge…#his kids love me i could maybe even pull it off twice with their son#but that’s maybe bordering on evil so i won’t plan that far in advance#he’s five he might not remember he loves me by the next time i see him anyway#the daughter though is at an age where she does remember me and we’re buddies. but she’s too young to read ya fantasy still#anyway. that’s something i’ve got going on. in the works#oh if i ever mentioned the two 5 year old cousins who’s nails i painted at my family reunion last summer. that kid was one of them#just to tie the narrative together for you <3

Thinking and laughing a bit abt how much of a fucken shock the knights must have had when shy, never-strayed-from-Diluc’s shadow Kaeya up and became the kind of guy who would take a squad of knights to catch a criminal and purposefully set off a mechanism that at best spooked the shit out of everyone involved by the sheer risk it incurred upon the knights and their target at once bc he liked the thrill of seeing their responses to the sudden danger.
#☆ ┆ ( .ooc. );#//But also wondering if the older knights and those who knew him like Jean and Huffman lamented this change#//Fullheartedly wanting to believe he’s not the sadistic type; but is doing this bc he regrets his own hesitation in the face of Crepus’s#death. and thus wants nothing to do with someone who would balk in the face of danger or even death. no;he wants only those of FIRM resolve#//Or if he is doing this bc of Eroch. and wanting to make sure he only had the most trustworthy and loyal ppl around himself#//Eroch must also be why he can be so merciless in dealing with his and Mondstadt’s enemies; they wouldn’t doubt it#//They’re not far off from the truth; but it’s latter two ideas are the ones that are right in the money#//though he does heavily disdain those who simply turn tail and run; particularly if they talked so big abt how they could keep up with him#//Hates that sort of false confidence so much. So the instant he suspects it; he IMMEDIATELY plots to weed them out#//Those who talked big& actually went through with trusting & following him; no matter how terrified they were; he will Greatly respect tho#//They tend to be his favorites#//He’s had plenty of aspiring knights wanting to work alongside him; he’s got to have a way to find the Best of them#//Aka the only ones he’ll actually trust to come with on more dire missions & be more willing to accept anything of him#//Regardless of what they might find; just in case if the worst happens and his truth comes to light#//He is the rose; this behavior of his is but one of his thorns#//Letting them see for themselves if they can handle him/what he does;then basically let the suspension bridge effect take care of the rest#//Jean will never approve of this; but no matter how much that stresses him out; he will never let up on it; no matter what she says or doe#//Not like she can DO; anything abt it. Be it bc of her fondness of him or how much the knights can’t afford to lose sb like him for long#//As for his enemies; well; many ppl learned REAL fast that was the LAST thing anyone wanted to be#//Even if his outward charm and languid demeanor constantly make ppl forget just how seriously he takes his enmity#//He has no qualms abt them seeing him in a terrible light at all; would in fact quite relish it#//If he can make those sorts of ppl fear him more than they want to cause harm to Mond and her ppl; he’ll consider his job done well

i think no matter how much i work on myself and my self perception ill always be insecure about being poor. i think about that scene from the fantastic mr fox where foxys talking about how he feels poor and i understand it. wanting better. wanting to look better, to keep up, to blend in.
stupid shit matters in small towns. dumb shit. like brand names. its like no one has anything better to do than invent arbitrary reasons to judge people. we all looked stupid back then. cant believe its been well over a decade now. we all looked so stupid. who the fuck cares about if theres still a sticker on the snapback?
i remember going to peoples houses and being shocked that some people had bathrooms connected to their bedrooms. that some people didnt have holes in their walls. LAMPSHADES. oh my god. ceiling fans? dryers?
let alone pools. or nice bathtubs. wooden floors instead of linoleum that had gouges and stains. fluffy carpet instead of carpet so old and worn in that it was basically melted plastic fibres, loud and hard if you knocked on it.
i remember thinking it was insane that people had like brand name bread, rather than the cheapest loaves possible. it was crazy that people would get mcdonalds just whenever, as a treat, instead of it being like a once a week at MOST thing. maybe once a fortnight.
#i do remember that my mum always got me art supplies though. everything else was off brand and i still loved it#but she'd get me nice art supplies when she could because id just draw and draw and draw and draw#even as i got older and she got a better job and more money she always supported my art. ill always love her for that#no matter how complicated our relationship gets and how much i struggle with it ill always love her for supporting my art#i dunno what she saw in me as a kid and i hate myself for disappointing my family. even though i dont like them.#but they always saw something in me that i still dont. i guess that in and of itself was a symptom#like of poverty. colonization. intergenerational trauma. you see one kid who might go far and you cling to that hope#so i do wish i hadnt been a burn out. i agonize over it. it fucking haunts me. eats at me like fucking acid.#txt

🥯 with Sokar and 🍋 for Masha? I wanna know more about them so bad :<…
- @honeysgalaxy
AGSHXH YESYES TY FOR ASKING ABOUT THEM [normal mode engaged I am Capableof being normal about them] TW FOR THEMES OF ABUSE AND RELIGION AND SLIGHT SELF HARM !!
Her weakness as a kid is Nareena talking to the other kids about her- she doesn't care when Nareena insults her to her face, she's somehow glad Nareena's talking to her at all, that she's getting his attention, but when Nareena's so disappointed that she won't even bother telling her off? When Nareena talks about her like she's not there? It makes her feel guilty and double down twice as hard to try and get Nareena feeling guilty, too
In her ghost arc it's when Sokar finally starts screaming back. Sokar's always been kind, kind and soft and quiet, she always took whatever came her way, so Masha pushing her to that point hurts her even though it's exactly what she wanted, even though she screamed at her to be angry and hate her
Sokar as a kid had a terrible obsession with being "clean" or "holy"- she's trans and was raised in basically a cult, and watching the older sisters showcase femininity as something holy and pure mixed with the constant berating of how she's dirty and won't ever be what she wants to be made her obsessed w the idea of it to the point she'll tear at her own hair or scratch at her arms till they're raw, trying to "cleanse" herself of her wants and needs essentially. She does get better! Generally living on the surface + meeting Cassandra who believes in do whatever you want Forever has made her much more open- she doesn't force herself into things she doesn't enjoy for the sake of appearing smaller or more gentle. She means THE WORLD TO ME I love herso much oh this is so long my bad
Post for the ask game here! :3
#Sokar also grows out her hair :3 she used to cut it consistently since the older sisters would shave it even though it made her really sad#religious abuse#implied abuse#implied abuse tw#I have some posts of them on my other acc if youd like 4 me to tag you :3 if not thats okay too#a lot of it Ive changed like this past week but the core is like generally . the same#mostly w nareena . HORRIBLE terrible girlguy I need her executed#malik's rambles#ask game#we've had Sokar for the LONGGEESSSTTT time#likesince we were 9 maybe ?? 8??????#our first oc !! :3 and then Masha then Nareena#Cass used to be SO different and had the name Opal so i dont consider them the same . Cass most recent since we reworked Opal entirely#we might bring back Opal actually I miss her#oc-verse

Since I've seen a few recently (I wrote this a while ago so that's not quite true anymore), is this a good time to say that I also had a role swap au (as in: El -> Will -> Mike -> El) in my wips for a few months now? I'm probably never gonna write it but I do love my ideas for it
#stranger things#I might have a strange obsession with Mike & Holly content#bc she is the one who finds him first in this one#but she's also older (Erica's age) bc the Wheelers are missing a child to fill the gap#this also has a huge focus on friendship and siblings bc#and the miscommunication here is that Will thinks Mike finds Jane pretty when he sees a picture of the Party#but he's actually talking about Will lol#and well Mike doesn't really understand homophobia and then gets told by Will that they can't be close together#and that makes Mike think that Will doesn't like him. it's a whole mess tbh#and obviously gets dragged out through the whole story bc they can't get their shit together#but i also planned on including some later characters earlier even though they essentially have the same roles as before#it was a really cool idea and i wrote like two or three scenes for it but it's never going to see the light of day#byler#I have absolutely no energy these days but I don't want to just lurk around all day so tada here you go

speaking of. I need some input on this.
a week or two ago I posted about the drama with some (now) coursemates. four or so months ago one of them showed me a picture of a crocheted charm she saw on a chinese app and said she wanted it but the girl who made it doesn't sell them. so I made one for her birthday. her birthday is at the end of december. it is not her birthday for another two weeks
now I have this bluebell charm that I absolutely do not fucking want to keep with me due to obvious fucking reasons but also don't think I can give it to her considering she's the only one that's outright hostile to me rn. for no reason btw
do I still give it to her and let that be the end of it, but also risk her just throwing it away, or do I just give it to someone else
#thing is i kind of want to give it to her and see her put it in the bin in my face bc i know her well enough and she would#but then im scared that she'll take it THEN throw it away when i'm out of sight which means they're pretending nothing happened#and it does seem like what's happening even though the boys have fucking caught on like#if the boys noticed something wrong and they don't even usually notice me#they're not being subtle but they're pretending nothing fucking happened which is something so unbelievably childish i can't even#they're all a whole year older than me#they mock the education course girls for being 'childish' when they yell or laugh loudly in class#honestly this might actually be more childish (and ridiculous) than being noisy in class#what are we#thirteen?#jfc#i can't talk about this with anyone irl bc all my other friends are also friends with Them and my mam doesn't know what happened#this is a huge fucking mess#does anyone want to sponsor me to fuck off to the uk for my second and third year and leave all this petty bullshit behind#daisy talks

Ok but is grieving an alive person that I see everyday a normal thing
Btw, if you have not had tragedy dropped on you before, grief does fuck you up in unexpected and physical ways. If you can’t sleep or sleep more than expected or have more or reduced appetite, or energy goes weird— your brain just had a bunch of emotions dropped on it and sometimes it reacts by hitting every button in your brain. It will pass. Just try to not get too frustrated with yourself.
It’s also fine if you feel normal. Grief literally hits everybody differently, and some people are made to be able to to keep the farm going the day after a death, and some of us turn into sleepless gargoyles and get really into trying to help, and some of us are just unspeakably sad. Grief is weird. Be kind to yourself.
#ive never felt grief but im scared#ive never lost anyone#its never been just dropped on me#but that might have something to do with the fact that my older relatives are dead before i was even born and my family is healthy#though sometimes i wonder if my grandma will pass away someday when im not ready#shes old though healthy#but death is inevitable and once its here#theres no going back#my grandma is also the closest adult to me#why am i grieving someone whos alive and with me every day#shouldnt i be enjoying this time??#i see her literally every day#shes healthy and happy#why am i so scared#im gonna go type in the main thing instead of in the tags#just so yall know i typed in the tags first

age gap autumn girl fuck you
#laid down on his bed he asks if i’m alright with him locking the door i say should i be afraid of you locking the door he rolls his eyes#i’m watching a pot on his stove we’re alone in his apartment he’s standing right behind me and i look at the glass of his kitchen window#so i can catch his reflection he’s just standing there waiting for his vegan pasta his meatless dish but i still feel like prey this#weekend i shared a hotel room with the kids they came over at night to watch a game and they’re all cuddled up around me they’re all#laughing and laughing and laughing and telling me about their exes and their boyfriends and i’m under the arm of one of them and he says#kitty kitty you’re going to fall off the bed i rest my head on another’s calf and she says kitty your hair is so soft and they’re all#laughing#i keep this in my drafts and a month after it's freezing at night i'm looking up at a man that might be fifty or at least forty five i#ask his name which i don't remember now because i was plastered. i was so drunk i tell him mister whatever-his-name was you're so handsome#and he blushes like i'm the one chasing him and that's because i am. i am laughing with all of my teeth out. he giggles pretty like i've#spent years doing and i ask him what is it sir what is it and he says i'm not usually told that and i nudge a little more i say you don't?#how? you're so handsome i say it in the way they all taught me in the way i've heard it before i keep going until he leaves for his place#but he doesn't invite me back because it's clear i've made him uncomfortable so i frown a little and lean back towards the boy i made out#with the night before i tell him huh old guy won't fuck me and he laughs he says so you really like them older i say yeah i laugh#i laugh and then i say but they don't seem to like me anymore he makes a joke about me having cut my hair short and i say no it's because#i'm too old for them now and he shakes his head do you see how fucked up that is he tells me and i just laugh harder but don't tell him it#is the truth. but not the whole of it. the rest of the truth is in me prowling through the bars another night and making eyes at them#instead of baring my neck when they come at me it's in me growing into a man in the steel of elevators and their sheets in the ac of their#offices and the heat of their cars and outgrowing them not to turn away from them but to become them that salivating beast they all are#all of us are i lean back on walls and show them a hip a boot-ed-on foot that is still small a wrist that is still thin a jaw that still#won't grow fuzz but don't they see right through they see right through this too small costume i've put on for them in the same way i#used to swear i saw through them too i swore i saw them for what they were but without even noticing they've done what they do in movies#and books and songs and middle-school health classes like in every warning that was given to me but here in this far away country i just#laugh and laugh harder when he says it makes sense though i mean i'm older than you too and he's only 24 and he says it so boyishly#almost with a pout and i cackle and he laughs too and there we are and we sound like children there in the street

only and positive
My husband and I developed a theory so please play along and tell me where you are in birth order (oldest, middle, youngest, only) and if you think having siblings is overall a positive or negative thing.
#but i think it depends more on how you were raised that determine your relationship with your siblings#if your parents were never there to take care of your siblings you might be closer as a result#but if your parents favor one sibling over the other it creates an unhealthy inbalance in power that can ruin your relationship#most of my friends are younger siblings and they all hate their older siblings cause their older siblings get away with more#i only know one person who's an older sibling and he has a pretty good relationship with his sister#even though she beats him up daily <3
