must edit stupid essay that's currently 219 words longer than it should be but y'see the thing is I really just don't want to.... I mean why do I actually have to come up with words for this. can I not just. abstract poetry perhaps? words are visual representation of meaning... could I maybe represent the feeling of finding meaning in helping my lab partner not fail chem by such a large margin through a large swath of amber paint. could I do that. would admissions people accept that.
#where's that motivational pinup when you need it#btw just got back from my old hometown#and I used to miss it so much but it's not home anymore#everything seems so strange and different now#they have damned turning lanes instead of divided highways#and in some ways it's changed (children's museum a shadow of its former self) and in some ways I've changed (really not used to heat)#and through it all i have this damned essay to write#school isn't even in session!#multiple damned essays btw#but you could see the stars down there#i never see the stars anymore#and there's cornfields and horses and terrifying blind curves#and really bad cell service#and my grandfather's grave which i didn't visit this time#but i am glad not to be crashing on my grandma's couch tonight#gets very old very fast#she came up with us#which is gonna be... interesting#because i love her and she raised me but she forgets so much and she can be irritable and i know i have to be patient#and im trying#but it scares me

once again the muppet is causing me Medical Anxiety! just had to drop over $300 on an emergency vet visit because of worrisome poops, and I'd like to take her in to her regular vet for some proper bloodwork/urinalysis, since i couldn't afford to do those at the emergency vet đ
so, if anybody has a bit of cash to spare so we can get her seen ASAP, that'd be rad! đŠ

miss you anna! I hope all is well đ
Thank you so much for all the messages I received while I was awayâtheyâre truly what encouraged me to come back! I canât thank you all enough â¤ď¸
I got a new job, and The Sims just wasnât a priority for a while, which also made me feel disconnected from my gameplay everytime I played. Turning 22, I even questioned whether The Sims was still "my thing". But this summer, I reconnected with it, and Iâm really enjoying playing and posting again. Seeing all your beautiful posts has been so inspiring, so Iâm back! <33
Plus, I still have a lot of drafts from my Estrellaâs gameplay that I never postedâŚ
#<3#wrote this very fast but I hope you get the idea#love all of you#replies#you're never too old to play games :)

Melian Queen of Doriath
Unsurpassed in wisdom beauty and magical singing

Melian was a maiar who used to tend the gardens of Lorien and akin to Yavanna.
She had great fondness of the deep shadows that the great Trees made and she loved to see Vardas Stars.
It is said that when she sang that all the Valar would stop to listen and Nightingales where taught singing from her.
I wanted to draw the original Eldritch Lady in Middle Earth. I mean as Eldritch as I can without making her "evil" looking.
This is just the line art and while I really want to color this one because it would look so good in color and I have a whole color scheme for her- I can't.
Yet
I need to wait until my markers arrive because I don't want to color her with water colors. So she is added to the pile of uncolored pics sry â¤ď¸
Btw in Tolkiens universe she was the prototype of Luthien!
And here again a little treat for you guys


#tolkien#silmarillion#traditional art#silm art#melian#doriath#valar#the most details in this pic will show when she is colored#i want the smoothness that markes gives#but my old markers are all dried up#i mean its been 10 years since I tried to use them sooo yeah no surprise here#the only working once I have are the gray ones from COPIC#but I wont get more COPIC one they are hella expensive#and i want to add that this line art plus sketch and design took me an hour#that sound long for non artists people#but it is ridiculous fast#and very rude I spent yesterday so long on my Finrod pic and managed to finish his hair#nothing else just his hair#it is very pretty hair

#art#traditional art#watercolour#oc art#ocs#oc group: unsorted#oc: unnamed#THIS GUY from a dream i had a while back. i like him :) i should give him a name#i should specify for new followers that the bit in the dream was he was a mob goon in a childrens cartoon type character#the stick in his mouth is not a poorly drawn cigarette but a lollipop stick. he's rated y7 by the tv parental guidelines system#also this was drawn like a week and a half ago but i mentioned before my pens were acting strange#(as seen by the very wobbly (even more than usual) lineart in the second pic LOL)#so i was like perseverating on that and i didnt get around to colouring and scanning my drawerings until now <3#I THINK i know what the issue is now. i think my 4 year old bottle of fountain pen friendly waterprood ink is um#well overtime most pigment based inks get. dryer. pigments settle and fused into a thick layer on the bottom even if you shake it#and every time you open it water evaporates. some even evaporates from the seal itself as it sits there#so its a good idea to keep an eye on ur inks! i will need to do some experimentation with like reviving it LOL#for now you will see my linework get funkayy in nearly imperceptible ways as i experiment with other inks and bust out my dip pens again <3#something i should do more often! i lean on my fountain pens because theyre fast and immediate but theres nothing like certain dip pen nibs

one thing i have to hand to people online who leave reviews on obviously low budget westerns is that at least they don't complain that it's an obviously low budget western. it seems that i can't say this for some of the people leaving reviews on obviously low budget queer movies
#i do have a specific movie in mind right now. yes. but it's not vagueposting anymore if i tell you it's long time no see (2017)#'their relationship moves too fast' this whole thing is 76 minutes what were you setting yourself up for#'it's like a fanfic' maybe ambitious gay romance action stories feel like fanfic to you because that's often the only place we get them#'it's cringe' 'it's mid' 'it felt rushed' it's a korean low budget queer movie (or miniseries) from 2017 about hitmen who fall in love!!!#give yourself a break and realize you may need to calibrate your expectations accordingly. because if you do this fucks#and even if it's not for you (which is fine! always!) then please. i beg of you. allow space for the fact that even as recently as 2017#this (a queer romance action drama with a happy ending) essentially Did Not Exist. and consider they may have done A Lot with what they had#(2017! it predates history3 trapped (2019). it predates the old guard (2020). it way predates kinnporsche (2022). i could go on)#(( < a weird list extremely & deeply worthy of interrogation. but i'm physically wrenching my own hands away to avoid typing 1000 tags))#((... and i'm not kidding about 'could go on'. i have compiled a very messy list and i'm THIS close to starting a spreadsheet. my god))#*#special bad take prize for anyone complaining that they have sex too soon btw. there's so much to unpack there

my top controversial Zim headcanon is that Zim actually performs absurdly well at skool because
1. he's a perfectionist with a compulsive reaction to ANY system of scoring
2. I 100% believe test scores are this guy's forte because he had to become an Invader SOMEHOW and he sure as hell wasn't passing based on the practical
3. He has hyper-advanced alien AI to do his homework for him. like come on.
meanwhile Dib is really only scraping by on raw intelligence and the inherent educational advantage of having a mad scientist father. He doesn't have TIME to study, there's an evil alien he has to stalk and besides, you know what's better than a high school diploma? The Nobel Peace Prize for proving the existence of extraterrestrial life.
#invader zim#zim#dib#zadp#iz posting#natterings#not actually my top controversial headcanon but i believe in working your way up to the cancelable stuff#anyway dib may or may not get more serious with it as he gets older#but at twelve years old i do not believe for a minute this kid gives a fuck about grades handed to him by stupid people#hes probably doing pretty okay at math and any sciences but i dont even want to IMAGINE how he performs on say#literature#he doesnt have time to read a whole BOOK hes trying to save the world here#though naturally if anyone pointed out to him that hey isnt it fucked up the literal alien is doing better in human subjects than you#we'd see a turn around REAL fast#that or hed just spend all his time trying to prove that zims been cheating which#yeah not likely to get him very far

Hola! Me llamo pinazee! Me gusta queso!
Okay im just going to be honest here, when i first watched this (being part latina myself) it made me feel a lilâ icky because it was a knee jerk reaction of it feeling like a white guy doing a bad impression of a mexican; but once i learned James is half and that his dad enjoyed hearing him speak spanish on his show im perfectly fine enjoying all the over the top spanish bits. And listen, i understand that james wasnât doing an impression of a mexican and it was really more an impression of the soap opera acting, it still felt like a degree of the culture was at play too. But again, its totally fine, and honestly even if he was a full blooded german i probably would have given it a pass, simply for the reasons stated above.
Anyways, I, surprisingly, donât have a whole lotta notes for this one. So this might just be a set of gifs ;) i mean, look how much fun heâs having!
I love that rothstein and Jorge were almost instantly bffâs with shawn, to the point that the show called it out- which was great! He has this infectious quality of bringing people into his world and making them feel valued and listened to. The more i watch this show, the more im grateful that Shawn was the subversion of the âgeniusâtrope we had at the time in the sense that he was actually great with people. Mid 00âs you had the mentalist (prick), house (prick), sherlock (prick), monk (awkward), charlie (awkward, p.s adorable), uh that lie to me guy (prick)- you get the gist. Shawns a lovable guy. I dare anyone to say otherwise.
Hahahhahaha get it? His sister is ugly! She looks like a guy! Hahahahahha -_-

*sigh* Look how deflated shawn gets because heâs so used to the criticisms at this point. Ugh, henry is really pissing me off this time around. But, i will say, this does add a little bit more to henry as a character. Like the whole bubble bath and tanning thing, we see henry is not the stereotypical manly man but instead feels he has to hide this more feminine side of himself, enough to the point that Shawn doesnât really know the real him. Henryâs imposed this image of what he thinks a man should be while secretly hiding he doesnât live up to that ideal himself. Henryâs a really guarded individual and i canât help but wonder if there is a trauma there that built that wall, or if it was simply how it was growing up in his time. Idk, maybe a little of both. But, again, i donât think it was ever really explored which is a shame. I would have liked to see henrys origin story. Could you imagine movie 4 opens with kid Henry and papa Spencer? That could be cool :)
The juliet B story- im so confused by what they were trying to say. It was naive of juliet to try to make friends? She shouldnât come on too strong? Chief Vick is the only friend she needs?? I like the scene she has with the chief, and i honestly donât even mind that lady being an asshole (cause feminism). Iâm just confused by the plot really. I wish they wouldâve given us some hope that she couldâve made a friend in the department. Like a passing lady says hi to her, and juliet smiles. Or had karen give her advice that was more than âbe careful, these women are guarded.â
That scene juliet had with her did break my heart a little at this part. Juliet needs a friend okay.
Also, i think Ms. pascoretti thought juliet was hittting on her and thats why she filed a complaint, so sheâs just a homophobic asshole who should be fired, and im going to assume she was as we never see her again so good riddance.
P.S TOO HARD!
#the spanish word for nipple: pezĂłn#the crime tho was weird#cause like that lady works on the set#she literally gets the ideas from the script#she is not a well person#but i will say shawn seeing an old hair clip line and jumping straight to murderer is A+#like that was extremely fast deducing#im realizing now at the end i sound very critical of the ep but i really enjoyed it#psych#psych rewatch#psych tv#psych usa#shawn spencer#shawn and gus#burton guster#james roday rodriguez#james roday#dulĂŠ hill#dule hill#henry spencer#juliet o'hara#carlton lassiter#maggie lawson#timothy omundson#corbin bernsen

our least honorable regulars tend to come and go, and it depends on their age or how many disruptive children they have or if they're just passing through. Map Lady only stayed a few months but she gave us years worth of annoyances. but our MOST honorable regular is easy. he is a man named geoffrey who is sixty years old and deeply deeply deeply autistic and when he comes in the building i know i'm going to have a pleasant interaction and even when i am incredibly grouchy and bitchy i can see geoffrey and its like yippee a real patron has arrived. i love geoffrey. so does everybody else. he doesn't do anything in particular to be beloved but he is the mildest mannered man on the planet with only one flaw which is an unfortunate disdain for kleenexes, although for all the sniffling i WILL say he is a ready hand with the sanitizer. he reads largely music biographies and has a set of about twelve sentences for regular conversation, some of which are just echolalia material. when you chat with geoffrey you know exactly what you're going to get, which is one of the most refreshing parts of having him come in on a busy or unsettling day. the exception to his catalogue of stock phrases is when he is sharing actor/musician birthday and death day trivia. he always brings his books back on time and he always says "i always bring them back on time" and we say thank you we love that about you. and he says "sorry to keep coming in like this" and we say please do not apologize for being the best part of our day every day. we love you. geoffrey <3
#he has one of those very fast monotone speech patterns so new employees always struggle to understand him at first#but once you get in the geoffrey zone he is immediately recognizable as a cool dude with cool interests#he's a guy with some pretty high support needs but he's thriving in his middle age and he's clearly had support all his life in this way#which makes me fond of his family who ive never met. that they are good to him. and its a privilege to be a small part of that system#we know what books he likes and when an old favorite of his has been read too many times and he's the only one who reads it#we delete it from the system and he can take it to keep#and you BET your ass. if somebody famous dies. he will be in that day to tell you how old they were and how it happened#the exception recently he has no idea who liam payne is or whether he's alive. his musical interests don't extend past the early nineties#anyway he's a cool dude always walking around town sometimes reading on the lawn of the old high school#works at the tool factory part time. goes to his mom's house for christmas . his dad was a music professor

One of the other ways clothing is steadily getting worse: pants of all kinds are getting thinner and show underwear lines almost as a standard now, even when the lines of the underwear are thin and masked with lace. This wasn´t a problem years back, but now I have to check every pair of dress pants I try on, and even some jeans - JEANS - for underwear lines.
"Just wear seamless underwear-" they're all made of plastic fabrics which aren't good for the bacterial enviroment of the coochie bc they don't breathe. The solution to all fabrics getting thinner and thinner should NOT be "buy bad plastic underwear instead".
#other stories has ONE model of dress pants that dont do this and is very flattering#begging on my knees that they dont ruin it for more profit also please release it in more colors#also another gripe I have: my newer jeans wrinkle much easier than older ones we're only talking a few years old and it's gotten worse#so fast#'just iron/steam them' oh I am BUT SHOULD I HAVE TO??#lots of clothing has always needed to be steamed or ironed#but lately many clothing items get wrinkly immediately instead of lasting two wears without having to do it again#clothing getting shittier and shittier#more expensive clothing is not immune to this they have to promise shareholders eternal growth too#also all the more mid end clothing brands which claim to focus more on quality#insist on only producing oversized clothing in beige or black#like I already know I look a tent in oversized/baggy beige clothing#fashion industry#ellen vents

Cressida Cowper being so excited by the prospect of five thousand pounds and making all these plans of using it to fund herself is so strange, because that money would be NOTHING to the nobility if it's all they had to live off. We're talking ÂŁ200 or ÂŁ250 interest a year.
In Pride and Prejudice that's the same as what the Bennets will have when Mr Bennet dies - the paltry amount that will send them into genteel poverty and makes the need for the daughters to marry so urgent.
It's HALF what the Dashwood women have when they're struggling to get by in Sense and Sensibility, and can only afford the most basic of servants and live off a reduced rent in a cottage owned by a distant cousin. Their mother can't even go out to dinners often because they don't have the money to reciprocate the gesture!
Also in Sense and Sensibility it's the amount of income the living Colonel Brandon offers to Edward Ferrars produces - which was considered not enough for him and Lucy to live on.
I mean as a dowry it's not bad for someone in the middle or lower rungs of the gentry, but for NOBILITY??? And let alone a sole income source. With that sort of money Cressida either is being completely delusional that she wouldn't have to marry, or she better rent a room off a respectable woman (a house of her own would be too much - not to mention the difficulties of an unmarried young woman trying to legally sign an agreement), learn how to sew her own clothes, cook, and clean reaaaally fast.
#not to be nitpicky about money in an incredibly fictionalised and historically inaccurate show about the regency#which plays hard and fast with the rules of society as well as the rule of law (omg the title inheritance stuff is wild)#but just make it ten thousand pounds and suddenly Cressida's hopes are believable????#I get her desperate 'anything is better than being a broodmare for this old guy' but why portray it as the solution to all her problems???#It's just trading them for an also very drastic set of different problems and the characters and show seem COMPLETELY unaware#bridgerton#bridgerton spoilers#bridgerton season 3#bridgerton netflix#bridgerton s3#cressida cowper#also complete side note - the eight Bridgerton children is NOT a weirdly large family in that era at all and over the span of 18 years????#bruh#what is Cressida's mother on about

this one is my favorite bc it sounds like a whole mess and then you hit the first chorus and you die because it's so good and you literally feel like you *are* spinning around on one of these:
#in my head its not one of these#but i can't find a gif of it that works#its those rollercoasters that stay on the ground pm but they like spin you really fast#yk the ones#they like throw you around a little?#very fun#if you don't like heights#old man throws music from the 80's at you#don't even get me started on danish music from the 80's#we have yet to see anyone use an electric guitar in even remotely the same satisfying way as the guitar riffs from most danish 80's songs#Youtube
