Chronic inability to put the buttons on the correct side
How very non-binary of me
#I noticed after taking the pics#it's appropriate for jadzia I'll keep telling myself that#I was trying to keep it consistent and fucked up at the eleventh hour as per usual#I want to remake the jacket anyway there's a lot I don't like about it#the sizing is off it should be longer the lapels are wrong... I can keep going#I did it with the second vest too smh#Sonic shower thoughts#FUN FACT for anyone who doesn't often shop in both genders of clothing#or sews I guess#the buttons are on opposite sides#something about dressing yourself or other people dressing you#or just weird sartorial quirk#can't have middle buttons though#BUT NEXT is time and again IM VERY EXCITED

Today I got to use a 70+ yr old sewing machine that was so well designed and in such good condition that putting down a line of straight stitches felt like performance art. It’s apparently the first portable sewing machine Singer ever made and fuck dude you can FEEL how proud of it they were. Look at this thing it’s gorgeous like it’s got sleek black enamel and fucking golden filigree and a fucking GOLDEN SEAL for crying out loud. Don’t get me wrong. I love my mostly-plastic sticker-covered little modern starter machine. It was one of the most meaningful gifts anyone’s ever given me and it’s done everything I’ve ever asked it to. But this 301A legitimately feels like A Piece Of Industrial Design and it’s crazy that it feels as good as it looks. It belongs in a castle. I hope this thing runs forever and based on how well built it is I wouldn’t be surprised if it did.

I would like a button to press that says "I am already part of Marginalized Community X and active in Political Issue Y, please do not show me all the posts about horrible things happening to people like me and my loved ones that are directed at Dominant Group A to raise awareness, because I have already cried about Horrible Thing Z twice today, I do not need to be more aware."
That probably wouldn't fit on a button, huh.
#i guess the button is the timer on my phone that limits how much i open instagram today#just sucks that i also have to give up the cat photos and sewing inspiration

no bc jackie wanted to be loved so badly and she cared so much for everyone on her team, she did their face paint and misty's makeup and tried to boost morale and she loves shauna so fucking much and they exiled her and they left her outside and she froze to death. they literally froze her out. i'm genuinely never getting over her death bc she did not deserve that and all they would have had to do was ask her to come inside and if shauna was just like "hey i love you i'm sorry" she would have come inside. SHE WOULD HAVE COME INSIDE GUYS.
#jackie taylor they could never make me hate you#jackie taylor#shaunajackie#yellowjackets#basil speaks now#listen i love shauna so so so much but i will never forgive her for leaving her out there#(but she'll also never forgive herself for leaving her out there so like. twinning i guess.)#anyway if i have to see one more post saying that jackie was a bitch i'm actually going to scream#HER BEST FRIEND FUCKED HER BOYFRIEND AND THEN HER FRIEND GROUP TRIED TO ASSULT SOME GUY AND WHEN SHE WAS LIKE#'hey guys that's kind of fucked up what is wrong with you'#THEY (essentially) KILLED HER#LIKE WHAT THE FUCK?#jackie my baby my love come here i will make hot chocolate for you and put you near a heater and like sew you a blanket or something#i seriosuly love her so much#yj

(yes I know siffrins cloak grows sleeves when its convenient but I wanna play around with this)
#also the cloak IS crafted to grow with him so I guess it being able to grow sleeves when he needs em might not be entirely untrue#tbh when I heard his cloak can grow with him my first thought was to have everyone gather under it and stretch it like a parachute lol#I think the one with like two folds stitched together to make impromptu sleeves makes more sense..#the holes are big enough to quickly fit your arms thru so its more suitable#the witch hat cloaks are designed so that witches can draw their spells without anybody seeing so its specifically to hide the users hands#siffrin doesnt necessarily need to hide his hands but he doesn’t like to be touched so I guess it just has to cover his body than hide it#idk anything about sewing or tailoring though so this is all my imagination. i dont actually know if this would work or not lol#my art#myart#doodles#I got thru a little bit more of the game and I’m coping. I’m coping#I’m imagining siffrin suplexing loop for my own sanity#in stars and time#isat#isat siffrin

Which Baldur's Gate Characters Know How To Lace Up Their Clothing - Camp Edition
I got this idea because I noticed Gortash's shirt isn't laced properly, and then noticed Astarion's shirt isn't laced properly, so now I need to look at as many characters as I can because I can't stop noticing. And I'm about to spend too much time on this for it to stay in my brain. Starting with all characters who appear at camp (main party + others.)
Shadowheart, Lae'zel, Gale, Withers, Aylin, Mizora, Duke Ravenguard, Emmaline, and Arnell don't have lacing on their camp outfits.
Starting with the default clothes for Tav. Yes, they know how to lace their shirt. Good job. This particular Tav is Durge, so it's good to know he didn't forget how when his brain got Swiss'd. However, it's not perfectly consistent because on the bottom 2 sets of eyelets he threads from the outside, but the third set he threads from the inside. Though this is probably intentional so the lacing doesn't hang on the inside of his shirt, so 9/10.
Astarion, baby boy, you were so close. But unfortunately there are two pairs of eyelets where he threads one side from the outside and one from the inside. For someone who wants to appear so put together, you think he could take the two extra braincells to lace his shirt consistently. 7/10.
Threaded consistently the whole way through...with one side. Why didn't you finish lacing your shirt? Why even lace one side if you weren't going to lace the other? Why isn't the lacing that you didn't finish shorter than the one that you did finish? All questions I can't answer because I cannot ask. 7/10 at least it's consistent.
I couldn't get a good in game screenshot of Karlach since her lacing is on her pants, but I found a texture rip so I can work with it. So the lacing here is the same all the way through, super consistent, *mwah*, but...it's sneakily unnecessarily complicated. Typically, the lacing that laces from the inside to outside would sit on top, but it's not that way on her pants. She pulls the lacing through the eyelet, then threads it under the other part of the cross, then threads it through the top of the next eyelet. And with as much lacing as her pants have, this must have taken forever for no extra benefit. It would have been easier to let it sit on top. 8/10 its pretty though.
Halsin. Beautiful. Gorgeous. I choose to believe the knots are hidden on the inside. No other notes. 10/10.
I've never actually recruited Minthara so I took a picture from the BG3 wiki. Just like Halsin, beautiful. Again, I choose to believe the ends are hidden on the inside. 10/10.
Jaheira's pants lace the same way Halsin's shirt does: perfectly. Though if the knot is hidden on the inside, I feel like that would be more uncomfortable, so I'm gonna headcannon that it ties at her waist under her shirt. Other than that, 10/10.
Minsc's shirt uses the same model as Wyll's so everything I said there applies here, though I feel like it makes more sense for Minsc. My real gripe here is that Minsc is a liar. Talking 'bout some thrice laced pants, but I didn't see any lacing on those pants. How dare he trick me in this way. 6/10 I don't like being lied to.
Yenna's mom may be dead, but she made sure her baby knew how to lace her shirt before she did. She may have gotten kidnapped by Orin, but she looked put together while doing it. Perfect 10/10. She deserves it after what she went through.
After being dead for 100 years, Isobel didn't forget how to lace her armor. Gotta be put together to see her girlfriend again. 10/10 Isobel can do no wrong.
Volo...I don't know what you've done to the front of your pants but it doesn't look good. Some of those crosses are missing. It looks sloppy. What is this. This is something I would do as a joke to see if anyone noticed. Well I noticed and I hate it. 2/10 it keeps your pants closed I guess.
That's it for the camp. I'll link other sets of characters below as I do them.

I feel so guilty auauau#I hate webtoon I hate this damn green app...#DOESNT MATTER!!!#what DOES matter is my art is good as hell... look at this shit...#the light. the colors.

im rereading the lightning thief and I forgot that the other campers were so freaked by Percy after he had been claimed + decimated those Ares kids that they wouldn't train with him anymore and he had to have solo sword lessons with Luke
#oh the fear the drama the tragedy of being a child of the big three#(I love it)#also not to think from the point of view of a villian#but Luke bestie baby this was prime manipulation time to try and convince percy to willingly side with kronos#and sew more seeds of doubt in percy's head#(I mean Luke clearly wanted him dead so that he would be the specialist boy)#but in a different world I guess where Luke was a little smarter as a villain#its interesting to think about

not related to noco at all but what is katie and sadie’s relationship like now?
pretty good all things considered! while they're both married to two sweet guys and have separate families (none of their kids are other td characters, unfortunately...) they're still really close, and still live next to each other at that same beach town they grew up in, now both running that successful 80s themed ice cream business they've been dreaming of! its safe to say they probably suffered the least on Total Drama, only leaving with a couple of minor scars, good god were they lucky..
#noco family au#total drama#total drama katie#total drama sadie#total drama katie and sadie#where are they now#I mean its ok to ask non-coco related questions here I won't complain#and I guess it makes sense talking about these two since they made like#a VERY brief cameo in the Wayne arc#just thinking but I've been too harsh on these two for a bit now they're actually pretty sweet#like yea they were annoying and gimmicky on the show but#they kinda feel like wasted potential#like their bios talk about so much we don't see in the show#like how they love the 80s#or that they make their own ice cream#or that Katie sews their clothes from scratch?#like#that's fucking adorable#but then they're resorted to annoying filler characters#like I sorta get it from a writing standpoint but..#when Katie was voted off they did sweet FUCK ALL with Sadie#like Sadie didn't even SPEAK until the episode she was eliminated#and then they don't show up again unless its to simp for this seasons hot boy or whatever#idk

#kirby#daily kirby#my art#digital#hal laboratory#nintendo#guess who dumped my planter off the shelf and got dirt all over my room while I was in the bath it was my dumb little cat!#so that was frustrating.#at least there wasn't *that* much dirt on my bed and my partner has a little hand vacuum I could use to get most of it.#(then he vacuumed the floor with the big vacuum for me after work)#the only thing that didn't really get clean enough to keep using is the cover I made for my comforter#but it's removable and I'd been meaning to make a new one anyway#I even already got the fabric I just don't have desk space for my sewing machine with the sock machine in use.

Back on my embroidery bullshit
And yes it’s moomin again
#I have two motivations for doing this activity#1#it’s really good practice for my job#I gotta do extremely neat embroidery there#and 2#I’ve never been someone who likes colouring books so this is like that to me#it’s so therapeutic#I did it for 7 hours today#just cycling through projects#I don’t actually know what I’m gonna do with the finished pieces#maybe sew them onto a dress or bag or something I guess#moominvalley#moomin#sewing#embroidery art#embroidery#fiber arts#lulu blogs

me: wow where have all my evenings gone lately 🤔
also me: it has been 382 days since i started working on the Yarneater3000, and it is so far from over
i am slowly encasing every seam and disintegrating edge of those jeans (so. most of it eventually) using every possible colour of embroidery floss, and it's been really fun !
#embroidery#visible mending#olorea talks#i'm getting better as i sew along but truly it's been a learning curve hahaha friendship restored with the thimble !!! saving my fingers !!#my goal is to make these shitty jeans last way longer than anyone could have guessed by slowly absorbing them in a mass of embroidery floss#alhamdullilah they will be darned !!!#i've also had other projects in between. this was not every evening for a year+ and i will soon be able to share... sunhat...... heehee#txt#img
