Not gonna go out on this limb on a 25k post, but maybe it’s okay that kids today don’t know as much about using an actual computer as we do/did? Is it useful knowledge? Of course it is. So is using a sewing machine or being able to rebuild your VW with a copy of that one book every VW driver used to have. That’s not the right question—most practical knowledge is useful after all. The question should be “is it relevant to the way people live right now.” “How to Keep Your VW Alive” is a timeless fucking classic; my ex and I kept our copy long after he sold his VW. But I’m not buying a copy now because it won’t exactly help me keep my VW ID4 on the road.

And it’s funny, because I tend to read along with those posts and nod my head, because back in my day we HAD to know all that computer stuff. And then for some reason today, I remembered a conversation my mom and I had with my grandma in the mid 70s when I was a teenager. Grandma made my mom’s wedding dress. She worked at a department store doing alterations on foundation wear, which if you look at 1950s foundation wear, you’ll realize was both necessary and difficult. So she was shocked when I said most of my friends didn’t know their way around a sewing machine. “But how do you make sure your clothes fit?!” Well, Grandma, people don’t wear heavy foundation wear any more and clothes don’t need to be as tailored as they did back in the day—it’s 1975 and the only alterations I need to do is hemming my flares so they just touch the floor when I’m wearing platforms.

Now you can back up and look at the broader picture, the one that says, but your car should be repairable by you as long as you have clear instructions, and you should be able to alter your clothes or make your own, and yes, you should know how to organize the files on the desktop of your laptop. But the fact that for the most part it’s become easier and easier to just not do those things (if they can be done at all) isn’t exactly the fault of Kids Today. And it’s certainly not meeting them where they are or even trying to understand why they feel they don’t need that knowledge if, instead of looking at why they don’t have it and maybe even don’t need it, you just decry their lack of the Deep Wisdom.

A surprise which didn't go as planned :'D

This idea has been in my mind probably a month now - if not longer - and finally got myself to do this.

Characters, Grimm and Pearl, are from @niuniente's comic Dead-Head's Deal (DHD). You can find pinned post on her Tumblr of where you can read DHD :3 Once more I remind you all that DHD IS mature themed comic with DARK TOPICS and therefor it is NOT suitable for everyone!

Ummm.. I really love this fic

*hands @basilf1res this gently*

Any ways go read project “GH05T” it’s really good :)

[transfem-kirito-truther]

do you think Asuna bribes Kirito into taking care of herself? Kinda like how you can train dogs or cats? Like Kiri takes a nice long shower instead of a quick one and she comes out demanding affection and praise because Asuna gives her lots of positive reinforcement when she takes care of herself? Cuz I do. I think that

Amazing first impression. You’re doing great, Pearl. (Total drawing time: 7 hours, 36 minutes.)

*This is on Mt. Nantai, they’ve literally just met each other and speak different languages. Marina has no idea what she’s saying.
