the most important thing is to learn to cut away from yourself...like always in the opposite direction. it's very hard to injure yourself when you're not in the way of the tool.

You're right, bestie thanks! I've been doing that constantly (I don't even have the strength to carve towards me thankfully haha) yet I hurt myself with the hand that holds the linoleum 😵‍💫

I'm gonna have to need one of these bad boys

*nasal voice* as an artist: movie ask 3! also 5 and 11 (bc I, too, love me some "problematic" tropes sometimes)

3. Post a screenshot and ramble on about why this one frame visually appeals to you (colors, blocking, expression, set decoration whatever).

omg this question is so hard. It could be random, like pick the last movie, take a screen, write. But I ended up clicking through dozens of films, watching a lot of fav moments. From Firth & Moore on the carpet in A Single Man, to Ken Watanabe standing in front of Godzilla in G:KotM, then the whole ending to Midsommar, had a quick cry about seeing the hanging shoes in Jojo Rabbit, looked at the way Amy returns in Gone Girl, that shot through the bars in Hustlers, or all the gorgeous bizarre shots that make up Annihilation, also I went through the whole of Fox' X-Men franchise, because I have so many moments I cherish (it is the best superhero franchise as a whole, even though the parts alone are mostly just mediocre, the sum of it is amazing)... then I was downstairs for a snack and a tv spot reminded me that Cruella exists, so I cave with this one:

You hear the name Cruella and what do you think about? Dalmatians and a black&white theme. With the fur she wants and the hair she has. And then this movie gives us a theme party. And it is very, very important that everything is strictly black and white only. It's a whole thing. Except Cruella has a plan and she's gonna be a distraction. She is disruption. She will make everybody look. With the color red. And I am here for it!

This moment was in all the trailers, you know it's coming. Yet while watching I'm always excited nearing this fabulous entrance. And it's not the effect of how she gets rid of her white coat with the flame, it's the absolute contrast to everything around her. Perfectly framed in... a door frame. An entrance for the ages. Introducing herself. Introducing the alter ego. The different persona. I am so here for that.

The whole film is about style. The visuals are gorgeous, the music filling the rest of the mood. This is what movies are for! Colored pictures in motion with sound - to invoke feelings. And here you know something big is happening. There is a stage set. It's all planned. In-story for the characters and for the viewers watching the screen.

There is nothing new or super groundbreaking. It's all about using well known tools in an effective way. And it tells us something about the character. Ella is used to being in the background, while dreaming about fashion she tries hard to not stand out (that would interfere with her little criminal endeavours and get unwanted attention for sure). But this is the birth of Cruella on the scene. Bold. Loud. Drawing all eyes on her. (And also startling people, because being a bit scary is fine.)

*chef's kiss* Sometimes a little bit of flair is all I need. Not even attached to any emotional outburst. Can we just applaud films for using the full spectrum of the medium for its own sake every once in a while, just to entertain?!

5. A character who deserves their own spin-off.

The very obvious, tumblr-friendly answer: Riley Johnson (Aubrey Plaza) from Happiest Season. Show me her life, show me she's good at her work and give me some fun disaster dates she goes on, trying to find somebody a bit more longterm. Witty, forgiving, a bit guarded and then opening up in a non tragic way. Hmm, sadly that's it. I don't even have fancasts for a row dates or anything. Just give me romcom fun with a dash of that specific Plaza-charme. (Not against reuniting her with Rachel Keller from Legion.)

11. A trope or setting you know is mishandled a lot and carries a huge problematic/toxic burden, yet you do enjoy it?

I am highly aware how terrible representation and portrayal of anything mental health/illness related films (and tv) overall are. Especially how most people are not knife wielding dangers to the general public. I am very much about treating people with dignity and respect, not judging but helping. I have seen/experienced things, I know reality.

However horror (next to sci-fi) is my fav genre. And you give me a movie that starts with "in a mental asylum", I'm in. Be it A Nightmare on Elm Street 3 with teens thrown in a hospital (despite telling the truth and not self-harming) or Grave Encounters with supernatural shenanigans in a former bad place. I love M. Night Shyamalan's Split, because James McAvoy plays all those personalities so well. Nobody ever should think about that film when talking about actual disassociative identity disorder!

We need to have that conversation about demonizing mental illness. But yes, here I sit being audience for horror films using it as a gimmick (always glad when it leans into supernatural territory).

I am also absolutely the audience for films like Girl, Interrupted or One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest. Both dvds are on the shelf. Great films. But sometimes I just want John Carpenter's The Ward or plain old Psycho. A film like The Babadook working with metaphors for deep dark soul dives isn't exactly an easy watch, so I'll take some "criminally insane" slashers as well.

Here's a nice message to balance out the porn bot one: Really looking forward to "O Captain"! Can't wait to play it! :D Have a nice day <3

Thank you so much!! I really appreciate this! I hope you have a nice day too :)

We do have a free PDF preview with enough rules to last you a full 30-60 minute session, if you haven't seen it! I love when people try it out and tell me how it went.

ugh, now I'm nostalgic for the Torchwood fandom (which I was never in just around so I avoided basically all of the wank and only got the good stuff) I should go back to my Adam fic

[coffeeandjournaling]

I put together an itch page for this early version of "Dice or Decaf", now complete with a printable score card and some more elaborate endings. :) Title courtesy of The Librarian, thank you so much!

Save your coffee shop

You're the proud owner of a small neighbourhood coffee shop. Not only have you poured your life's savings into this business, but all your heart and at least a hundred hours of watching online tutorials for the perfect cup of espresso. How hard could it be? Pretty hard, it turns out. After a year of grinding behind the counter, you scraped together a couple of repeat customers and serial squatters, but neither are enough to save what is, by all accounts, a cursed undertaking. To make matters worse, your competition from across the street is gearing up to squash you like a cockroach in the break room.

Time to descale the drip machine and steam some soy milk - will you manage to save your coffee shop in time? Or will your extraordinary efforts cause your shop's premature downfall?

Tell me more

This is a silly little choose-your-own-adventure-style narrative add-on to the classic dice game Yahtzee (or Kniffel, as I’ve grown up to know it). If you’ve ever been stuck on a weeklong class trip with a Yahtzee-crazed colleague or had to spend the holidays locked up with your loved ones and a cup of dice in the Polish countryside, you might be familiar with the intense boredom I have been subjected to. From these harrowing experiences, this small project was born. What if I could enjoy myself without having to ruin everyone else’s fun?

While playing along with a normal game of Yahtzee, you tally up your successes and failures to determine whether you can save your coffee shop from ruin. Each and every round you get to read a little more about how your efforts help or hinder your goal, and every playthrough will be a little bit different. Deal with some truly unhinged customers, make terrible decisions and woo your crush with your barista skills - the dice determine how well you will do! 

The Dregs

The writing is rough, my friends. This is a first draft that barely anyone has laid eyes on so far. Some major decisions have yet to be made, knowing myself, however, I will probably never touch this again, and I'd rather share the tiniest bit of incomplete fun now and again than let all my weird little stuff gather dust somewhere on my hard drive. Here's a list of stuff I'd like to change/add in the future:

some text editing (possibly character names and pronouns)

art for a nicer print version and better formatting

more elaborate PvP rules

If you have some suggestions, shoot me a message. If you wanna turn this into your own thing, mix this up etc. Do whatever you wish. Sharing is caring.

107+23+10+2+5+27+6+13+10+47+13+30+13+12+3+22+6+65+2+9+5+4+8+6 is… 448…give or take.

At least, at the time of being tagged which was awhile ago. This single-handedly motivated me to clean out my tabs (I have a bookmark system in Firefox where I file things away). I am now at…57 tabs. I swear I need them. Don’t ask me how many phone tabs I have open.

Spiders & Georg

So...I have only been working digitally for a long time and I never draw, but I had an idea for a 12-Word RPG after seeing that it's the 20 years since:

and after being really inspired by some of the entries to the 12-Word RPG Jam: 

Six and Two Threes by @myfawnwy

Six 12-word RPGs in postcard size.

Roadwarden by g0ri

A 2d6 Minutes Fantasy RPG

I wanted to do something quick and messy (something I normally find impossible because autism, perfectionism, and lack of confidence) that I could just make and share and have the doing of it be a huge step for me, regardless of the quality of the thing itself.

I did this all in a few hours, hence the awful photos, but actually managing to focus with ADHD meds and do all these things I either can't or don't allow myself to do, so yeah.

1. the number of tabs open in your browser right now 

four (I usually have a lot more open, because I have a tendency to open stuff in a new tab to keep for later, and then I never get around to most o it)

2. the song you are currently loving 

Positive (from Legally Blonde the musical)

3. the last text you sent 

[Restaurant] table is reserved for 20:15 possible short delay would be ok

4. the last package you got 

I'm not entirely sure, but probably more of @lovecanbesostrange's pixel art

5. the last time you laughed until you cried 

I don't remember (it's not like I don't laugh a lot, I just haven't lost it like that in a while I think)

6. the last photo you took

since my camera is at home and I'm not, I can't check, but probably also @lovecanbesostrange's pixel art :D

7. anything you'd like to tell your followers? 

while working at this post, just now a little 'draft saved' thingie popped up, so apparently if you take too long writing something tumblr might save your progress on its own now? Or it might just do so regardless of how long it takes you and I just didn't see the notification before. I didn't know that, maybe you didn't either
