i do think there is something wrong with me because i am realising that my reactions to some of the things that luo binghe did because of his love for shen qingqiu seem to be relatively muted compared to others’. like don’t get me wrong, luo binghe definitely did that like he for sure went there but like at the same time i think he’s so fucking valid and maybe if people just stopped judging the kid for being the teensiest bit obsessed and took the time to understand his hangups then they’d see that too

Third baby blanket of the week done! It’s not my favorite fabric combo but it’s the fabric I had in my stash and it’s going to be a day or two until I can get to the store. They are both florals!

I did manage to (mostly) remember to time myself when making this one, and it takes about 45 minutes to an hour to make one of these baby blankets

Ok I worded all of this very terribly bc I can't think of a lot of the words I'm trying to describe and I'm very tired but I need to get this out now so bear with me

From the beginning of Severance, I've gotten the impression that Ricken was, at least at some point, a very sweet and kind dude which is why Devon married him, but over time, he's become more self centered and just very fake

I forget if it's mentioned in the show or in the podcast or something, but Gemma is said to have encouraged Ricken's writing, and so what I assumed happened was Ricken took her advice and wrote a book, but either as he was making the book or after he finished it, he started to develop this very fake persona where he acted smarter than he was. Maybe bc he felt really smart after making a book and started thinking he was the shit or maybe bc his first few books weren't selling well so he thought he had to adopt this mask of wisdom and credibility to make them seem more interesting, who knows?

I think he had a good handle on this slowly growing ego for awhile, especially with Gemma being there, but after Gemma died, Ricken lost a friend and a genuine supporter of his work, so he went more and more into this persona out of grief, eventually getting his weird fake friends to replace Gemma as his supporters, but they end up just driving him further away from himself

In this season, Devon argues with Ricken and mostly complains that the things he's writing aren't his own ideas. This implies that she does care about his writing and supports him, but doesn't support him not staying true to himself and selling out, especially to Lumon of all companies.

This made me feel like Devon was also supportive of his work at one point and to an extent still is, but after all these weird dumbass dinners where they don't eat and long book readings and her being pregnant but him focusing more on himself in the moments where she was literally going through labor, shes just gotten tired of this act he's been putting on and getting really close to ending the relationship (and hopefully dating Rhegabi instead?)

I don't know, I just feel like Ricken acting like this isn't exactly a recent development, but it wasn't there from the beginning, it's just slowly becoming more and more present in his and Devon's relationship which is why it seems like she straight up hates him when really she just hates what he's becoming

The way I approach love stories is so interesting, like I care not for both sexual and romantic part, both don't exactly need to be present for you to see that characters trust each other and feel safe

Same with family, platonic stuff and friendships, feelings of trust and whatever else worth so much in all of this

Love story being a love story just means it'll happen faster and more... Boldly?? Bc that's the main focus and all

Also since people love romance so much you get more stuff in the fandom win/win

Although I'd say it took me a loooong time to get into anything, because I rarely see something and go THAT'S A SHIP! nah, that's a friendship, that's cute and sweet

Then we have toxic stuff and that's the intoxicating codependency that makes me want to analyze it all, like wow those characters are horrible to each other

But I usually have like two to balance each other, bc as funny toxic stuff is, I want some sweet stuff be it a friendship or a healthy ship

Maybe I did this to myself but it does irk me when people see me knitting and they ask who it’s for and I say it’s for me and the immediate reaction is “you should sell it” yeah… let me spend at least a week’s worth of my free time making an item I like, want, and would wear just to sell it on etsy, making at most a £2 profit on materials and not being compensated for my time whatsoever 👍🏻

for people who have anxiety but live alone anyway: how do u deal with the panic? I live with 2 other people and still have bubble burst moments of random fear that only gets soothed by putting myself in someone else's eyeline. what do you do when the catastrophising starts???

Hey y'all! I'm thinking of making pride quilts (because I am in a quilting kind of mood). They'd either be baby quilt size or throw quilt size (or wheelchair blanket sized, which is sort of in between those sizes?) Do you have any suggestions for which pride flags I should make into quilts? And any input on the quilt sizing?

[fadewalking]

I am reconsidering some things for this blog.

[orcelito]

Oh yeah I went to the store the other day and got more yarn

I'm gonna make this blanket in these colors. Approximately.

So I kept hearing about how art can be relaxing and stuff. Just messing with colours and such.

So blanket fort time today is art time and I found a water colour pallet to give it a go and god damn I wish my art teacher at school had actually encouraged me to keep going and trying cause this is fun.

I've just been swatching the paint but I'm enjoying it :)
