watch out

What the hell?

ALSO IMPORTANT TO NOTE, people dropping mad mad sums of money on gfms and charities and stuff are extremely impressive but that DOES NOT MEAN that putting like $5 towards someone's fund or any good cause is any less valuable, a lot of crowdfunding is about momentum and those single digits add up super fast, you do not need to be Rolling In The Dough to make someone's day!! moving the dial at all is extremely positive!!

is du drow the little spoon? like on one hand he does have that vibe but on the other hand astarion is very much the guy who insists he’s the big spoon but becomes a soft pile of love goop when he’s the little spoon

Sorry to be the bearer of Boring news but Astarion strikes me as a guy who won't ever shut up about the crook on his neck the next day if you make him be the big-spoon.

Needle felted lagiacrus update

dude looks a little fuzzy cause I haven't trimmed him

[amerricanartwork]

Oh my, is that really what I think it is...?

It is!! Another little creature has arrived! And it's so fluffy too! Though that isn't gonna do much in this hot weather!

Here, have some food, little guy. And come inside! I'm sure the others would love to have you!

-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-

That's right guys, Rain Wool is back in business!! Now that I'm getting back into the swing of needle-felting and FINALLY have lots more core wool to make all sorts of projects with, it's only right that I keep on going with this project, especially since, after Saint, I'm only one away from being done with the slugcats! I apologize for waiting so long to continue on with this project, but going forward I hope to start felting more of these guys more frequently.

In the meantime, however, I'm happy to finally share this fluffy little green bean!

It probably isn't very visible in these images, but on the cheeks, arms, and tail I intentionally left the wool less felted in for a softer, fluffier appearance. Since I have barely any of the straight wool roving felters normally use for long hair, this is my general go-to method for fluffy creatures.

I still think he looks adorable though, and I'm so excited to be close to finishing the slugcats!

Well, I hope you enjoy this new Rain Wool content! Hopefully there will be more to come soon!

Dp x dc AU: the watchtower gives out very strictly limited passes for visitors. They don’t need the world knowing that their HQ is in space after all, but sometimes family needed to visit.

Batman was the one to install the day pass system back when Dick was Robin- he needed the excuse to send Dick home to Alfred after a certain amount of time has passed and it just stuck. Unless you were a full time member, day passes were the best you got. Engineers and other supportive staff that weren’t members weren’t afforded day passes however- but Jazz is determined to be the one exception.

Jazz Fenton has been a psychologist for the JL for a year now (she just had a very productive performance review, thank you very much) and it’s been killing her to not tell Danny her office is in space. They do weekly dinners that he portals in for, and he knows that she takes a Zeta tube to work, but he’s technically not allowed to know that her office is a satellite. So, she sets a meeting with the man who started the system in the first place.

Batman is hard to read for most but she’s been his therapist for a while now, and she can tell he’s at least considering her request. Dinah couldn’t speak more kindly on Jazz and she’s been an asset to the JL in many ways since she was hired. Jazz’ arguments aren’t preposterous either- she’s submitted all of his identification papers, his background check, his job description and all of his friends names. She assured him that Danny will be able to keep a secret but when pressed she doesn’t reveal if he has any of his own.

Turns out, months of back and forth and negotiations were going be basically worthless- the second Danny got his little wrist band day pass, made it up via the zeta tube and got presented the view of Earth from the observation deck: he immediately transformed. Like zero caution, just went ghost and hyper fixated on the stars.

“You could have mentioned your Brother being Phantom. He’s been an ally to us for a while.” Batman grumbles in the way that only his family and she can tell through his deadpan.

“Yeah, I just thought that would’ve been a second visit conversation.”

maybe dirk and jade hanging out ?

this is their entire dynamic to me. Dirk being neurotic around his bf(f)sie's gradmadaughter and her finding the whole thing deeply funny. dave should count himself lucky that she likes him otherwise she would be doing the exact same thing to him (more often).

[bill-needle]

sorry i forgot to clarify. you bare an uncanny resemblance to this cat. I hope you see it as much as i do bill

...huh, you're not wrong.

Not sure what I'm supposed to do with this information. Are we meant to think the cat is funny? I don't appreciate being called funny.

I take it that you mean this affectionately, though. So, uh, thanks.

[ID: Digital Art of Vash and Wolfwood from Trigun Maximum. Vash’s body is turned slightly away from the viewer as he holds a staggering Wolfwood by his shoulder. He has one foot ahead of the other, the foot in the back used to stabilize himself from tipping over. Wolfwood is tethering into Vash, his weight pressed into him with his arms wrapped around Vash’s waist and his face is hidden away as he leans against Vash’s shoulder. Vash’s expression can be seen, his eyes wide and mouth tight-lipped, and his face is flushed red. A speech bubble comes out from Wolfwood, saying a drawled “Spikeyyy...”. The background are desaturated pastels of blue and green, showing night time, as they stand in the middle of an empty street that is also lit by the moon not depicted. Yellow light is seen coming from the inside of a saloon. End ID]

Bruce is really, really good at moving furniture. So much so that even when he’s just freshly dating Clark, Lois recruits him to help move some furniture to a new apartment she doesn’t trust with movers. It’s half said as a joke, but Bruce actually shows up. With Dick and maybe Jason as helpers. And they problem solve the hell out of getting her priceless antique cabinet across town. This wins Bruce tons of brownie points with Lois, who gives her stamp of approval for the relationship not long after.

can we eeeeremmm can can can we perchance have micheal and needles in the same room,,, (ALSO I FUCKING LOVE YOUR NEEDLES DESIGN THAT'S EXACTLY HOW I IMAGINED HIM)

sorry this took,, longer than necessary but here’s the sillies <3

[genderqueerdykes]

I saw the thing about sharps containers and let me be the one to say: A lot of things we consume on a daily basis, when properly sealed and marked, can be a sharps container! I use jugs of water (need distilled water for my CPAP) that I've emptied, bc they're rather tough. You have to clearly mark that they are a sharps container, with sharpies, and tape the top lid closed. You can also use aluminum cans, soda bottles, and other jugs (think lemonade, Kool-Aid, Sunny-D, etc!) again you just have to tape the top shut with duct tape preferably and sharpie it to death with a warning!

hey thank you so much for sending this ask, you reminded me that i got a handout about this at my local library! thank you for your input, i'll add that info to complement yours. keep in mind, this is written from the perspective of helping homeless people dispose of sharps, but anyone can benefit from this:

[Image ID: A photograph of a small horizontally oriented card detailing how to safely dispose of needles. It reads:

DISPOSING OF NEEDLES

Use gloves or thick material to pick up needle.

Place needle inside an empty container (thicker plastic is better, but is not always an option)

Seal the container- with tape if possible as an extra precaution.

Write "biohazard" on the container with a market (I recommend carrying a sharpie along with your Naloxone kit).

dispose of the container in the trash, or call the fire dept or local needle exchange program, if you want someone else to dispose of it.

There are two graphics displaying what types of containers to use are preferable.

The graphic on the left shows a milk jug and a small handheld personal disposable water bottle with a thumbs down graphic. The graphic is attempting to convey that any plastic containers with very thin walls should be avoided.

The graphic on the right shows a thumbs up next to kitty litter, laundry detergent and shampoo bottles, attempting to convey that plastic containers with thicker more durable walls should be chosen if possible.

End image ID.]

this goes to anyone who uses needles for whatever reason, HRT, insulin, substance use, whatever it may be, having sharps containers is important. and i agree mark the container clearly that it is a biohazard and a sharps container. "SHARPS" does the trick. hope this can be of help to some people!

[ID: A digital drawing of Needles from The Magnus Protocol on a gray background. He is a bony, bald white man with pale skin, a gray tongue and gray fingernails. He is wearing dark navy pants, a brown raincoat hanging off his shoulders, a shiny black body harness that crosses his chest and stomach, shiny fingerless opera length gloves, and a face harness connecting to a choker. He also has "door-knocker" nipple piercings with spikes on them. He has countless needles poking out of various points on his body including one side of his head, the space where his eyebrows should be, his ear, shoulder, chest, one side of his stomach, under his fingernails, and his entire tongue is covered in needles as well. Blood pours from every area the needles come out of, and he is posed with his hands splayed out with one arm reaching straight down, and the other arm bent over his head. On both sides of him are extra fully rendered drawings of his hand (left) and his smiling mouth (right) showing the needles in more detail. The hand drawing shows the needles poking out from under his nails, bloody and bleeding down his hand, getting on his glove. The mouth drawing shows needles poking out of his gums and tongue, stretching the flesh as it bleeds over his teeth. They are rendered with cool dull shadows and warmer highlights. end ID]

more needles, this time my far too indulgent hood-off design that i had to get out of my system before its canon potentiality is obliterated. he is so Great Value Pinhead. to me. also i just think he should be bloodier.
