I was going through my art folder again and I saw one of the oldest wof stuff I've ever drawn (the fourth one ever I think?) and I redrew it! I love Turtle and I just took this excuse to draw him again
#What's this? two cinnamon posts in a week?#I got so tired of reading about molluscs man#so many snail shells and clam shell hinge types#I finished my notes and run to look for something to draw#I feel like I'm redrawing my stuff recently#but honestly it brings me joy so why not#I have this one drawing I'm constantly thinking about redrawing#the oldest wof drawing I've ever done#it's actually on tumblr it's the one with blue and orange rainwing#but I don't know if I'm ready for it yet#anyway Turtle#I love turtle and my design for this dude#also I took my old anemone design and gave it more jellyfish-ness#I feel it suits her vibe and also anemones are cnidarians too so it makes sense to me#wings of fire#wof#dragons#wof turtle#wof anemone#seawing#cinnamon's doodles#wof fanart

If somebody in your life offers to knit or crochet or, really, create anything for you, please be an active participant in the creation of the piece they are making. I adore making and gifting things, but nothing bums me out quicker than a person who passively just goes "okay," to my ideas about what I'm making them - it can send the message that they won't like it, or that they don't care, even if they're happy about my offering. The back-and-forth feedback is a great way to make sure that you are being gifted something that was truly worth the time, effort, expertise, and money that will inevitably go into the gift!
I know it's really hard to be an active participant, believe me, I'm an anxious ball of horror, but it will only do good for both parties to interact in this situation. It is a big deal to be offered a hand-crafted gift, but it's also something we want you to love and use, and that can only happen if you tell us what would make you fall in love with what we create.
#advice#relationships#art#fiber art#knitting#crochet#i always try to remember that some people's responses to something big is to clam up and become more passive...#..i just want to remind you that you aren't in danger of Ruining Everything by suggesting things or asking questions or saying what YOU wan#like i asked my dad specifically how he would feel if i made him items SPECIFICALLY so i could gauge if he would like them for instance#i don't just want to create something i want the recipient to actually LIKE it#which is why i typically (not always) ask how somebody would feel about me giving them a specific gift#i know some people genuinely don't care in the sense that they would appreciate ANYTHING but sometimes that doesn't always translate i gues#im crocheting a set of coasters for my dad and i really hope hell truly like them because i'm not sure based on how he responded to my ideas#it makes me so happy to gift things but it's with the caveat that the recipient will think it is An Amazing Gift That Is SO Good And Useful

4an thinking about Gale and Hollond obsessively. Absolute losers for each other. He fell in love first and they took a running leap off a (love) balcony and hasn't recovered. Gross. Romance. Blaming it on the moldy bread I ate earlier and the two hours of sleep I got -- more at 10.
#clam rambles#4 am posting into the void#ignore me please I'm just so tired rn#do it (finish chapter 2) for them clam... just do it!!#Gallond haunting me for years at this point#oooooh i hate them sm i just wanna sleeeeeeep#to delete l8r

Brief rant but there is something so appalling to me when I see a writer use AI-generated images (no I won't call it art because it isn't, tyvm) for the header/cover of their writing/fic.
People don't want their work scraped. Be it writing, visual arts, music or voices even. But then go and use AI-generated shit out of an art field they don't actively contribute to. It disgusts me. Have you no conscience or shame?
Most writers are actively against the use of AI. Many people don't want to read fics written by AI.
So for the love of god...
If you're against AI - fucking be against it in all art forms and not just your own. It's hypocritical af!
#🍁 dust rambles#gonna start blocking every single fic author I see using AI generated images#I'm tired of it#support fellow artists regardless of the field#don't be hypocritical and only be against it as long as it affects you#writing#lately I'm also seeing more and more musicians using AI for their song cover artworks#and it pisses me off beyond belief#a bit of reflection would do some people good#god I'm so angry about AI bullshit#and frankly I'm tired of seeing it#fucking low quality ass garbage#*inhales* I'm clam again#just needed to get this off my chest

#after uh. not enjoying hornblower: loyalty all that much I finally watched hornblower: duty#and enjoyed it a lot more. I think there's meta there with mutiny/retribution#I gather they were sort of not allowed to mention kennedy but you know that makes sense in-universe.#horatio isn't allowed to mention him either. not really. and I do think he'd clam up about him. that's horatio all over#but you can't convince me that survivor's guilt of his is only over bracegirdle#(bracegirdle makes it worse obviously)#also his letting doughty off really makes me want it to have been him that pushed sawyer#I always want it to have been him just because so much of his later career either makes more sense or has additional dramatic irony#if he knows himself to be an unhanged mutineer#BUT he doesn't have to have actually done it. he just has to THINK he is guilty#for instance - recently aubreysmaturin made a pretty good case for it having been Wellard in the books#but if it's Wellard--then Horatio's gone down a path of 'I was his senior officer I was responsible to have stopped him I wanted Sawyer dea#so basically I am guilty' - because again that is what it is to be a Horatio Hornblower.#(in fact another clue pointing to Wellard is that the universe always seems to bend to keep Hornblower's hands clean#like that time he lied that the war was over only to later find out that in fact unbeknownst to him it was over.#he gets the thing he guiltily wanted and he gets it without actually doing the guilty thing and so no one will blame him#except his own conscience)#anyway that's the books. I don't think it was Wellard in the show#I'm not sure what I think happened in the show#but whatever it was Horatio *feels* responsible#I'm not saying that's *why* he let Doughty off but I think there's a kind of secret symmetry there#hornblower

Things my middle-aged mother has said that caught me off guard and made me have to pause whatever I was doing and laugh:
Huge if true
Canon
Shrimps is bugs (WHERE DID SHE LEARN THIS ONE????)
Will update as more come in
#reblogs off because she sends me tumblr posts sometimes and I won't risk this specific one taking off lmfao#my sibling and I joke that our mother talks like a twitch streamer sometimes#huge if true was in response to a meme I sent her#canon has a little story behind it#she has this ziploc vacuum sealer for her freezer meals#and I get bad brain fog and can't always remember words#so I called it the food laminator because that's basically what it does#and she said that she's calling it that now and that's its canon name now#and shrimps is bugs was in response to us discussing what seafood is acceptable to add to a country boil#I'm team 'clams/crawfish/shrimp/mussels' and everyone else is team shrimp only. hence her quoting shrimps is bugs out of the blue#I love my mother dearly. She asks me about pride flag discourse so she's certain that she puts up the right one in our yard.#she's more chronically online than I am. I love her

I have received -ahem- official permission to buy and use certain things otherwise illegal in my state for purposes of fighting my insomnia and Other. Things. that I've been struggling with for a long time.
I finally have something that might help in my hand and I'm hesitating because I can't shake that deeply rooted belief medicine is Bad and Evil that my dad liked to shove in my face all during my childhood. Couldn't take meds when I was sick, no, I had to survive on sprite and crackers and cough syrup at best. And this, this stuff that I was told was Extra Bad and Evil for a good chunk of my life? Absolutely not, not allowed
It's dumb. I've seen it help my brothers, hell I've taken stuff before from their stash (with permission) and my brain is still digging in heels and not letting me take it.
#i'm tired but it's probably gonna be another sleepless night#i got the bottle open and when the smell hit me it was like everything clammed up#is there an actual phobia of taking medicine? i'm sure there is#anyways i'll shut up now and go back to tapping away at my word doc

#i'm kind of.... it's fun‚ y'know? i like it i like drama but i do go into some things looking for something specific#you know. and then i get it. and then i'm happy as a clam#so i can't in good conscience vouch for it as a whole because that wouldn't be very real of me. but i do think it's an enjoyable show#and probably would be fun to have a bunch of opinions on! if i had them. but i've been stress-watching it#so far all i got is i want lynette so bad. the family is an evil social institution and it pisses me off. and bree is a loser for#not wanting to beat her husband with a riding crop. move over#but have fun if you start watching!!! i'm in it for the dadson ^_^#ask

Next Scum Villain Fairy Tale AU will be a variation on 'The story of the youth who went forth to learn what fear was' which is such a long title honestly.
It's gonna feature Yang Yixuan as the titular youth.
But what I actually wanted to talk about, since I'm rereading the original real quick for inspiration, that titular youth really is just such a himbo. Nevermind throwing a person down the stairs because they keep ignoring his demands to identify themselves or leave, because they are pretending to be a ghost to scare him. No my dude camps out underneath some gallows and then when he gets cold ponders and decides to cut down the unfortunate hanged people above him cause 'well if I'm cold down here, how cold must the poor sods up there be?' And that's like only the start of it
This one really is one of the fairy tales I really like, because the protagonist is just so unique.
#svsss#adjacent only really#won't stop me from tagging it though#Yang Yixuan#and if anyone is wondering yes I'm gonna add a romance#and anyone who's read more than one of my stories might be able to guess who is taking on the role of princess#the opposing urges of talking about an OC and also clamming up because well what if no one likes them and thinks they're cringe
